In late April of the third year of Yonglu (1559 AD), the castle town of Takayama Castle, Osumiku, the southernmost part of Kyushu.

Since the Luo family implemented a sea ban and used the Feiqian Five Islands Archipelago as one of the foreign trade locations, and was the only free trade zone for selling Ming, Nanman, North Korea and other commodities to the outside world (that is, merchants from all over the country can trade with merchants from Nanman, Ming, North Korea and Luoshi House here. This is mainly because Zhengliang took to avoid excessively occupying goods from the above-mentioned areas, which caused merchants from all over the country to boycott the Luoshi House, and then affected the trade between the Luoshi House and merchants from all over the country and the free trade location set up by Luoshi House to expand to various parts of the Warring States Period). Since many merchants from four countries and the state areas have been attracted there.

Osumikoku is one of the places where these merchants stop and rest on their way to the Luo Family Kazumaki Kojima area. With the increase in the number of people, it naturally led to the prosperity of Osumikoku's coast, especially the same coastal city, Takayama Castle Castle and Shincho, the city.

It was already noon, and a small hotel in Takayama Castle was doing very well at this time. At this time, the lobby of the hotel was full of romances, merchants, ordinary travelers and local gangsters.

At this time, people were resting while talking about slang from all over the world and chatting about the rumors they saw. The most discussed among them was naturally the Shimazu family, the Shimazu family, and the Iton family, who joined forces to fight against the Kyushu overlord Luo family. Especially recently, the news about the Shimazu family has become more and more exciting to discuss.

Of course, some people sat silently at the wine table, quietly holding the wine pot, drinking with a plate of dried radish, sipped by small sips. These people were almost all ronin. They were in a state of unemployed. In fact, they really hoped that the Luo family could come directly to the Nanjiuzhou area. After all, the very good treatment of some of the Luo family's leaders has been spread for a long time, and the Luo family often recruited soldiers, and the treatment of soldiers was also very good. If they accidentally obtained enough military merit, they would not only have land, but also marry a good woman, and even become a warrior of the Luo family.

Therefore, these ronin people really hope that the Luo family can come, so that they will have a chance to find employment. As for why they did not go to the border of the Luo family territory to join the Luo family? The reason is very simple, because they are poor. In this era, they can't find food on the roadside at random (if there were, they would have been found by many refugees and refugees long ago), so they did not have enough money, so these people dare not travel long distances.

Just as everyone in the traveling house had their own thoughts, the curtain at the door was pulled open, and two more guys walked in. The guy who was in the first place was just as big as a stature, but he was relatively young and looked very energetic. There was a too-knife hanging around his waist. When he came in, the guy glanced at the traveling house with a little vigilant look. As for the other guy, he looked much older, and this guy looked very depressed.

"Please two bowls of hot rice soup."

After sitting down, the older middle-aged man spoke to the traveler's owner, and his voice sounded a little hoarse. The traveler's owner nodded and went to do it as soon as he heard it.

"Hey! It still failed!"

The middle-aged man with a depressed complexion finally spoke in dismay at this time. The young man next to him seemed to be the subordinate of the middle-aged man, and he was obviously very familiar with the habits of the middle-aged man, so he just sat there and glanced around, keeping his vigilance, and did not respond.

Among these two people, the middle-aged man was Kei Mori's retainer Kei Mori. After receiving the order from his subordinate Maori Mori, he and other Maori's retainers divided their troops to various places to contact allies. As for Kei Mori's retainers, Kei Mori's destination was the Mian Kyushu area.

After arriving in Mian Kyushu, he did make great progress and reached agreements with the Sahiro family, Ito family and Shimazu family, which allowed the two companies to join the Roh Family encirclement advocated by the Maori family.

However, when he came to Osumiku's Ganfu family with confidence, he encountered a nail. Because here he not only met the Luo family envoy who also came to persuade the Ganfu family, but the Ganfu family had not yet determined which camp they would stand in after meeting him. What was even more depressing was that not long after, under the mediation of the shogunate, the Maori family actually made peace with the Luo family.

Of course, even if we negotiate peace with the Luo family, the Maori family was ready to take revenge for the Luo family. After all, in the peace agreement between the two parties, the gold and silver mines and other minerals produced by the Maori family could only be sold to the Luo family. The third son of the Maori Motozumi Kohayakawa Takasaki was still eating vegetarian food and chanting scriptures every day in the Luo family's Tadakami Temple (he was under house arrest).

In this case, if the Luo family had not been beaten up by the Luo family, would the Maori family be willing to seek peace? Therefore, the Maori family must have revenge on the Luo family. Now, even if they have negotiated peace with the Luo family, Kei Momosu still remains in the Mikushu area. While analyzing the matter of peace between the Maori family and the Luo family, he still insists on coming to Osumiku, trying to persuade the Ganfu family to join their camp.

In fact, the members of the Ganfu family were indeed a little moved by the persuasion of Katsumoto Sumi. Since the tenth year of Astronomy (1541), the Ganfu family had already had conflicts with the Shimazu family. At that time, the fief was in the northern part of Osumi Kingdom, and the territory was connected to the Shimazu family. There was friction with the Shimazu family, and the situation was getting worse. Even in the 18th year of Astronomy (1549), Shimazu Takahara ordered Ijiyuan Tadaro to lead a large army to attack the Ganfu family in Kajikiki Castle, Osumi Kingdom, and the Ganfu family finally lost and surrendered. In the 23rd year of Astronomy (1554), the Shimazu army invaded the territory of the Ganfu family and seized the forts and territories such as Kajiki Castle.

After almost unifying the Satsuma Kingdom and forming an alliance with the Ito family of Hinata, the Shimazu family became even more arrogant and quickly accelerated the invasion of the Osumi Kingdom. So in the second year of Hongzhi (1556), the Ganfu family, who could no longer hide, personally led the army and the Shimazu family to break out of the Osaki battle. However, the Ganfu family was eventually defeated and was captured by the Shimazu family by the Shimazu family. At this time, the Ganfu family had only the territory in the southern part of the Osumi Kingdom, and was still threatened by the Shimazu family.

It is precisely because of the continuous invasion of the Shimazu family that the Ganfu family has joined the Maori family's camp, hoping to make peace with the Shimazu family through the mediation of the Maori family. After all, since we are all allies in the same camp, we naturally cannot attack each other.

At this moment, the battle between the Luo family invaded the Sakai family in Fenghou Kingdom. As an ally, the Shimazu family sent troops to support it. This gave the Ganfu family a chance to breathe. Then, the Ganfu family, under the persuasion of the Luo family and Gui Yuancheng, decided to temporarily serve as a bystander to see who would win this conflict before making a decision.

Not long after, news came that the Shimazu family and Ito family supported the Sakai family's army were besieged by the Luo family's army. At this time, the Ganfu family still had not made a decision. After all, this was just a rumor and it was not confirmed for the time being.

However, soon, as the Ito family's residence was captured, the northern part of the town was invaded by the Luo family; the Luo family's army entered the Hinata and Satsuma country, and other various news broke out. After sending people to the Hinata and Satsuma country to confirm these news, the Ganfu family naturally knew that they should join the camp at this time, so they sent people to "gifts" Kei Motosu and others out of the city, and at the same time, they welcomed the envoys of the Luo family, and agreed to the request of the Luo family's envoys, and immediately gathered the army to attack the territory of the Shimazu family in Osumi Country. After being bullied by the Shimazu family for so long, it was time to take revenge.

The master and servant Guen Cheng, who was "gifted" from Gaoshan City, had to leave in shame. This was also the reason why Gui Yuancheng was so depressed. His retainers were even more worried about the plot from the envoy of the Luo family, so they remained vigilant.

After sitting in the middle of the trip for a while, the owner of the trip served two bowls of rice soup. Although there were only a few grains of rice, the two still drank voraciously.

"Well, I don't have much money anymore. In order to be able to take a boat to Shiguo and then return to Honshu Island through Shiguo area, I can only save money. The damn Luo family, if it weren't for their control of many sea areas and had a sea ban, why would I have made it so embarrassed?" Gui Yuancheng thought to himself while drinking rice soup.
