Chapter 709 Undercurrent of the Four Kingdoms (2)
In Hyugatan, on the coast of Hinata, the result of the battle between Itojia Navy and the Luo Family Navy shocked Nishienji Temple. The strength of the Luo Family Navy was too powerful in this water battle. But the subsequent information surprised him even more.
The Luo family naval army, who secretly arrived on the coast of Fenggoku Kingdom, joined forces with the Luo family naval army, who were originally stationed in the local area, and cooperated with the local Luo family defenders who were fighting with the Otomo Sahiro family and Ito family coalition forces in Fenggoku Kingdom. They attacked the camps of the Otomo Sahiro family and Ito family overnight, driving the defeated troops of the Otomo Sahiro family and Ito family to the hinterland of the Sahiro family. At this point, the troubles of the Luo family in the southeast have been temporarily solved. At least in a short period of time, neither the Sahiro family nor the Ito family dared to easily lead the border of the Luo family.
After achieving this great victory, the Luo family's naval army did not seem to have stopped. Instead, they directly rushed to the coastal areas of Sumimi County and Guodong County. Here, they fought fiercely with the Oto family's naval army that was temporarily pieced together.
The Luo Family Navy, which had the advantage in terms of both the number of people and the number of warships, finally defeated the Otomo family's navy after a day of fierce fighting. Since then, in the eastern part of Kyushu, from the coast of Guodong County in the north to the coast of Hinata in the south, the Luo Family Navy has become the only one. Although the Luo Family could not invade these coastal areas by landing warships, it can harass these areas. More importantly, the trade routes in this area were opened again by the Luo Family, and the Otomo family, the Otomo family and the Ito family jointly declared a failure in the blockade of the Luo Family Sea Road.
As for the waterways of the four countries? Because every family in Tosa was suddenly killed, the family was already in chaos and had no energy to cooperate with its traditional allies, the Outomo family and the Outomo family to block the Luo family's maritime trade route.
As for the Iyu area of Shikoku, which is across from the sea of Fenghou Kingdom, especially the Nishiyuanji family, which is facing the Fenghou Waterway, you will directly face the threat from the Luo family's naval army.
This made Shinzoji Shikong's mood solemn again. So he instantly thought of several guests who had been visiting his home in Shinzoji for several days.
"What's going on with the guests from both sides now?" Nishizoji Shimasaki gently put down the information in his hand and looked up at Nishizoji Kouhiro and asked.
"There is no abnormality between the two parties and they stayed quietly in their respective yards. But they all hope that our family can make wise decisions as soon as possible." Nishiyuanji Gong replied.
"A wise decision?" Nishienji Minami said to himself with a heavy face. This choice mixed with the overlords is really embarrassing.
The Otomo family, as the former overlord of the Fenghou Kingdom, is now a down-and-out phoenix is not as good as a chicken. The Otomo family has declined, which is naturally a good thing for the Nishinoji family, which has been invaded by the Otomo family. However, this time the Otomo family's envoy represents the Otomo family and the Otomo family. Kitaiyu's Kono family has been invaded by the Otomo family before, which has forced the Kono family to expand their power to the southern part of the Iyo country in order to have enough territory and resources to resist the Otomo family. This is also the reason why the Kono family has been invading the Nishino family's territory.
If it is connected with the Otomo family and the Otomo family, and then begging the Otomo family to send troops to force the Kono family to suspend the invasion of the Nishinoji family, this is not a good move.
But at this time, the Luo family, which had almost completely controlled the Fenghou waterway, is also very powerful! If Fenghou really unified, as the Nishiyuanji family, who chose to join the Otomo family and the Oui family, the Luo family would definitely settle the score later. By then, the Nishiyuanji family would be trapped by several powerful families again. The only difference this time is that the more powerful Luo family replaced the original position of the Otomo family.
So, should I just choose to join the Luo family? But Shikong Nishiyuanji was a little worried.
From the information just now, during this period, in addition to colliding with the forces of the Iton family and the Oto family on the coast, the Luo family also repeatedly fought fiercely with the Oto family on the Befutan plain in the Sumimi County of Toyoko.
During the spring plowing period, the Luo family did not conquer each other, which was an unwritten agreement between the famous families of the Warring States Period. The Luo family obviously did not abide by this agreement. In the view of the Luo family, in Xiyuan Temple, the Luo family was a powerful overlord who did not necessarily keep his promises and agreements.
Once the Luo family settles powerful enemies such as the Otomo family, the Ouchi family, and the Ito family, will they free up their hands to deal with the ally of the Nishiyuanji family? After all, in the view of Nishiyuanji Minato, as long as the powerful powerful people in the Fenggou region intend to invade the Shikoku region, they will never be able to avoid the Nishiyuanji family on the way to pass. And does the Luo family, with such a strong power, have no ambition to invade the Shikoku region?
Just as Nishiyuanji Shizuo was thinking left and right, in a courtyard in the Shimachi town of Matsuye Castle, the envoy of the Luo family to the Shikoku region, Kizuo Shigetachi, was discussing with the escort general Ali of the accompanying guard.
"How, have you found it?" asked Kimao Chongtaki.
"We found them. But there are many guards in their residence." Ah Li, who had just returned, replied.
"I can't wait. My lord has been waiting for us in Kyushu for a long time, and I will rush to other places in the Shiguo after that." Kizuno Shigetachi said. They had arrived in the territory of the Nishizoji family a few days ago and were received by Nishizoji Shimashi.
During this period, Nishiyuanji Shishen was also very enthusiastic about their group, but he had not yet responded to the invitation of the Luo family to form an alliance. Under doubt, Muzao Chongzhong spent a lot of money to bribe the important minister of the Nishiyuanji family, Gumakayasu. Only then did he learn that it was the messenger of the Otomo family who arrived at the Nishiyuanji family earlier than them, and they also sent an invitation to the Nishiyuanji Shishen. As an important channel connecting the Shikoku region with the Kyushu Toyoko Kingdom, the Xiyuanji family became a hot commodity for a while, and the head of the Nishiyuanji Shishen seemed to be hesitating.
Nishienji Temple was hesitating, but most of the retainers in the family did not hesitate at all. They have been struggling to resist the continuous invasion of the Otomo family. Now that the Otomo family has declined, they plan to bring them up as allies to fight against the Luo family. The Otomo family has a very sensible idea, but the retainers who have lost many tribesmen in the fierce battle with the Otomo family will naturally not show good looks to the envoys of the Otomo family.
