Chapter 340
"In the south, the Omura clan and the Saigo clan are gathering troops in Wucheng, and are expected to be coming to the Matsuo Castle of our family; in the east, the coalition forces on this route are the fastest. The Takazoji clan and Hirai clan have already headed for the Wuxiong castle of our family, and the Ma clan is also gathering in Matsuo Castle, which is obviously preparing to join the army of the two previous families; in the northeast, the Eshang clan, the Chiko clan and the Nagashi clan are already mobilizing troops; at the same time, according to the report of the detective, the Shaoer clan is also gathering the powerful troops of Kiei, adoptive father, Sangen, and Kamizaki county." In the meeting hall of Anyue castle, Osaki Kōji frowned and reported.
"The abominable Takazoji family actually ignored the peace agreement and openly responded to the call of the Shaoer family?" Togo Heiji said ruthlessly.
"Hmph, the Arima family and Hirai family took the opportunity to occupy part of the territory belonging to the Goto family while their family was busy cleaning up the war last time. It seems that they want to get more territory this time." Akaba Nobunosuke said with a sneer. There was no tension in the romance that the great enemy was coming.
"The so-called peace talks are just a piece of empty words." Kizuo Shigetachi sighed, "Your Highness, since the other party openly tore up the peace talks, then the hostages left by the Takasagi family in their family can also be used."
"Your Highness, the horse riding team has achieved success after one month of training. I beg you to go to the battle." Miyazawa Heihachi begged.
...
When hearing these coalition forces came, some of the Luo family's retainers were indignant and asked for a fight.
"Your Highness, I wonder if you have any solutions?" In the end, Kakuma Ishisect, who was a mature and stern person, asked.
"Haha, it's just a native chicken and a tile dog. I have already made a decision here." Zhengliang said with a smile.
Seeing that the head of the family was so calm, some of the retainers who decided to fight to the death were immediately excited, while some of the worried retainers became at ease. In the past, as long as they saw the head of the family, it basically meant that the Luo family could turn bad luck into good fortune in the end, and this time should be no exception.
"The territory borders to the south and northeast are guarded by Tomohisa Oishi and Shigemasa Yoshida. They ordered the two to stick to the fortress while sending people to sneak into the nearby mountains and pretending to be suspicious soldiers, so that these people and horses dare not act rashly." Masarara said.
"Your Highness's plan is very wonderful." Kakukuma Ishisect immediately reacted and exclaimed, "The forts guarded by Tomohisa Oishi and Shigemasa Yoshida are all between the mountains and there are many nearby mountains and forests, which is indeed suitable for laying out doubtful troops."
"Your Highness, what is the matter unknown to me?" Ming Feng Xiuzheng said in confusion, "Even if the suspicious soldiers are arranged, the other party may not be willing to give up attacking the fortress of our family."
"Haha, Nosuke, you can analyze it." Masarara said.
"Yes. Your Highness." Akaba Nobunosuke bowed to the order, "The Omura clan, Saigo clan, in the south, was defeated by his family, and his vitality had not yet recovered. Although the incident of attacking the family this time was caused by them, in fact, they were the least willing to fight against the family among the coalition forces. So as long as the family set up a suspect army, they would definitely stop going and watch."
"As for the northeast, the Jiangshang family, the Qianlong clan, and the Shangwi family. In addition to the Jiangshang family being a loyal retainer of the Shaoer family, the Qianlong clan, although the Shaoer clan obeyed the Shaoer family's call, actually had the idea of preserving their strength. Especially since the bravery of the head of the family has already resounded throughout Feiqian, these two powerful families are even more unwilling to directly confront our family." Akaba Nobunosuke told the reason why Masaroshi arranged this way.
"Although these two coalition forces can use suspicious tactics, the army of the Takazoji clan, Hirai clan and Arima clan in the east direction is difficult to force retreat." Kakuma Ishisou said, "In addition, there are also the Shaoer family who personally led the subsequent army."
"The army in the east can only go out of the city to fight directly." Masarara said, "Before the Shaoer family's army arrived, we defeated the Takazaoji, Hirai clan, and the Arima family's pioneer army."
"Your Highness's plan is to transform passively into active ones." Kakukuma Shisen nodded in agreement.
"Everyone. Although the three armies are so powerful this time, they are just bluffing. Our family will definitely let these native chickens and dogs see what real martial arts are." Zhengliang shouted. In fact, in Zhengliang's view, although the Shaoer family gathered many powerful people to siege this time, in fact, these powerful people have their own plans. If they had not seen the rise of the Luo family and threatened their interests, they would definitely not have cooperated in this way. Even if they cooperate, they would have their own plans and could not form combat power at all. As long as the Luo family persisted for a period of time, these coalition forces would naturally disperse when they saw that there was no profit.
"The head of the family is mighty!" shouted the retainers.
"Follow the order!" Masaro shouted seriously, "Isai Tomohisa, commanded the second regular foot light team to guard Matsugashi Castle, Kawahara Castle and Hirota Castle; Isaida Shigemasa and Roche Shingoro, commanded the third regular foot light team to guard Lion City; the rest of the teams are guarding their garrisons to guard against abnormal movements of the surrounding powerful people."
"Kakuma Shisou!"
"The subordinate is here!"
"Lion City is here to ask you. Please help Yoshida Shigemasa, and Roche Shingoro guards Lion City."
"I am sure that I will fulfill my mission!" Kakuma Ishizo said.
"Nobunosuke Akaba!"
"I'm here!"
"I'll ask Matsugaki Castle, Kawahara Castle and Hirota Castle. Please ask Tomohisa Oishi to guard these three cities."
"Yes, Your Highness."
"Aguda led the fifth standing football team to participate in this battle, and the rest stayed in the territory to assist Heiji Togo to defend the territory." Masayora said, "In addition, Qingzheng, you should go to the Da'an family and ask the other party to come forward to mediate."
"Yes, Your Highness!" Duanmu Kiyoshi bowed and took the order. Duanmu Kiyoshi helped Masayoshi maintain their relationship with the powerful and the power of the temples in the territory, and achieved good results. In addition, another bus was pursued by Moritotsu and stayed in Sakaimachi. As the contact person for the Luo family, the court and the Sakaimachi merchants, Duanmu Kiyoshi can only rely on Duanmu Kiyoshi for diplomatic affairs.
"Magic rule, Chongzhong, you two immediately arranged personnel to sneak into the territories of various powerful territories, and spread the news that the Shao Er family had guided other people's territories regardless of justice, and at the same time, spread the news that several powerful territories such as the Ryuzaoji family secretly united with the Luo family!" Zhengliang ordered again. Since Fei Qian is already in a mess, it's better to just mix it up.
When the Great Western Kingdom was governed, Mu Zao Chongzhong also accepted the order.
On May 11, 2011, the second morning after receiving the news that the Shao Er family's coalition forces had invaded in three groups, Masayoshi personally led the army to Wuxiong City.
This time, Masara brought a group of 100 cloaks, a low-level samurai of 100, a thirty samurai of thirty samurai, and a fifth samurai of 200. The generals accompanying him were the leader of the fifth samurai of samurai, and the general and physician of Akimoto Hidemasa, who were close to Kato Kusato, Hidden, Uemura Motosuke, Shiji Ueda, Maji Ueda, and Toshima Honda. The cavalry general Heihachi Miyazawa also participated in the battle, but this time he could only lead the team. After all, the horse riding team has not been trained yet and does not have the ability to participate in the battle. And the sudden incident, it is obvious that they can no longer wait for the horse riding team to meet up with Takayama in the wild. In addition, the little surname Masamo, Bukit Murakami, and Naoshima Kaori also followed Masarara.
After the army reached the end of Takeo Castle, after learning that the army of the Takazoji family, Hirai family and Ma's family were still gathering, Masara issued an order to take the initiative to leave the city.
So after Akimoto and Hikaru Akimoto led the remaining 100 men to guard the Castle of Takeo, Masaru led the army straight to the Hirai family's territory. This time, 100 men from the First Football Team led by the Executive Jung-chan were added.
Several peasants from the Hirai family who were in charge of guarding the checkpoints saw the fierce army of the Luo family, and decisively abandoned the card and left.
"What mountain is the mountain ahead?" After occupying the Hirai family's checkpoint, Masara asked, pointing to a small hill ahead.
"Sir, that's Zhuxiong Mountain. Not far from the mountain is the simple land village built by the original Goto family to prevent the powerful people in the east. After the Goto family was destroyed, the Hirai family took the opportunity to occupy the place and later burned it down." The detective, who was in charge of leading the way, immediately reported.
"Send the order, today he will camp in that burned Tuzhai." Zhengliang ordered.
Soon, the Luo family's army entered the Zhuxiong Mountain Tuzhai, which was burnt to pieces. Although the Tuzhai had been burned, it happened to be stuck in the passage from the Hirai family to enter the plain outside Wuxiong City. There is a mountain road in front and behind the Tuzhai with mountains and forests on both sides, which can be described as an important strategic location.
"Ali, Hiduan, you two lead some people to the village in the Hirai family territory ahead, grab some rice, grain, and wood thatch back." Zhengliang issued an order in the temporary military tent set up by the Tuzhai.
"Remember, be a little bad, and you must pretend to unintentionally let the villagers know that we need these thatchs to be made into thatchers." Zhengliang emphasized.
"Honta Toshimasa, Tetsunosuke, you two, lead some people to the villages we passed by just now, forcibly relocate those villages to our own territory, and deliberately let some people go." Masara continued to order.
"Muramoto Tsuna, Ueda Maji, today you are responsible for guarding the mountain road outside the Tuzhai. Be careful to deliberately let some people who escape from the villages behind escape the checkpoint and head towards the Hirai family's Sugu Castle."
"Yes, Your Highness." Although I don't know why His Highness asked them to be bad people and let them go as good people, everyone bowed to take the order.
With Zhengliang's order, the village near Zhuxiong Mountain Tuzhai suddenly ran away. Teams of soldiers rushed into various villages like wolves and tigers, and followed Zhengliang's orders to plunder supplies and forcefully migrate the villagers. Some of them were deliberately released by the soldiers of the Luo family to the side of the Sugucheng of the Hirai family.
After the Luo family's army was stationed in Zhuxiong Mountain Tuzhai for nearly a mile, at dusk in Dangri, the coalition forces of the Takazoji family, Hirai family and Arima family finally arrived late.
