Warring States Eagle

After the Omura family, the Saigo family, and the Goto family joined forces with the Kami Matsuura clan and the Shisa family to destroy the Hirado Matsuura clan, the entire Matsuura County is now divided up by six wealthy families.Among them, the Luo family alone occupied half of Matsuura County, and the remaining half of Matsuura County was divided among the rest of the families. <Plough work.

In the council hall of Kishidake Castle, Kakukuma Ishimune, Akabane Shinnosuke, Togo Heiji, Onishi Kuniji and other important officials of the Luo family gathered together.

"I'm all about Matsuura County. I don't know what kind of strategy you think is appropriate?" Zheng Liang said calmly while sitting on the main seat.

Kakukuma Ishimune and Akabane Shinnosuke looked calm, as if they had expected Masara to attack the remaining half of Matsuura County.On the other hand, Togo Heiji and Onishi Kuniji looked at each other for a while, with such eyes.The two of them were suddenly summoned by Zheng Liang from Ye Gaoshan to Anyue City. They thought that something big had happened along the way, but only after hearing Zheng Liang's words did they know the real purpose of their trip.

"Ishimune, tell me your opinion?" Seeing that the retainers did not speak for a while, Masato looked at Kakukuma Ishimune and said.Since he was forced to join the Luo family, due to being suddenly awarded the post of military adviser by Masara, many retainers secretly discussed in private, and even suspected that Kakukuma Ishimune's ability was not qualified for the position of military adviser.As the party concerned, Kakukuma Ishimune became a retainer of the Luo family because of anger at Masara's rogue methods, but he deliberately did not show his talent, which further deepened the suspicion of the retainers.

After Masara learned of the arguments of the retainers, he went to Kakukuma Ishimune's residence in person, and had a long talk with him for half a day, and the two finally settled their suspicions.Kakukuma Ishimune is also determined to assist Zheng Liang to make the Luo family grow stronger.

Now that Kakukuma Ishimune heard Masara's advice, he immediately bowed and said, "Your Highness, this time the attack on Matsuura County has three advantages for the family, and two disadvantages for the opponent."

"Oh? What are three benefits? And what are two disadvantages?" Zheng Liang asked.The rest of the retainers also looked at Kakukuma Ishimune suspiciously.

"One is righteousness. His Highness has established the orphan of the Hirado Matsuura Clan as a concubine at the beginning of the year, and now he is the son-in-law of the Hirado Matsuura Clan. He has enough righteousness to inherit the territory of the original Hirado Matsuura Clan. This time, the family is well-known." Kakukuma Ishimune said slowly.

"So what's the disadvantage to the Kami Matsuura family and the Omura family?" Masara continued to ask after hearing Kakukuma Ishimune's three benefits. <Plowing, because there are too many territories, the standing troops are concentrated in the main places.Therefore, there must not be many guards staying at the various fortresses, and it can be said that the interior is empty; the second evil is that the opponent has newly occupied the territory of the Hirado Matsuura clan for a few months, and the territory has not yet fully settled down," Kakukuma Ishimune said.

"Yeah." Zheng Liang nodded after listening, expressing his agreement.Then he looked at another military adviser, Akabane Shinnosuke.

The latter fanned the red feather fan in his hand, and then muttered: "Your Highness, I dare to ask, what kind of result does Your Highness want this time?"

"Of course it will take down Matsuura County in one fell swoop," Zheng Liang said proudly.

"Since this is the case, the family must be fully prepared. First, we need to ensure the stability of our territory. Secondly, we must first understand the current situation of the other party, and then we will make plans," Akabane Shinnosuke said.

"That makes sense," Zheng Liang nodded, "Heiji, can the territory support this campaign? Be careful, this battle may last for several months." Before sending troops to attack others, you must first ensure the safety of your own territory and The logistics are adequate.

"Your Highness. Under the promotion of the new law, the territory has completely stabilized. The security incidents have also decreased sharply. If His Highness issues a mobilization order at this moment, I think that not only the people in the original territory of the family will sign up enthusiastically, but even those in the newly occupied territory The people will do the same," Dongxiang Heiji immediately reported, "As for armaments, the forge in the territory has repaired almost all the weapons of the family during this period, and the weapons can fully support this battle; The family has continuously purchased food from the Shenya family for months, and the food for the army of the family has increased to [-] shi, but the Shenya family has sent a letter that it is difficult to prepare for the family due to the continuous purchase of food during this period of time and the arrival of the spring season. When the food is gone, at least the supply of food will not be restored until after the autumn harvest; the special food such as bacon accompanying the army can also be used by the army for two consecutive months."

"Very good," Zheng Liang praised after hearing this, "Since the coins obtained from the exchange with the Shenya family and Yutian Xinkang can no longer buy food for the time being, let them focus on helping the family buy war horses. If there are not enough war horses, ordinary war horses are also fine." Zheng Liang has always wanted to build a cavalry team, but due to the lack of horses in the territory, he has not been able to achieve his wish.Now, let's make up our minds and spend a lot of money to buy horses.

"Temporarily mobilize a transport team of 100 farmers and soldiers, and organize it in the form of paid corvee," Zheng Liang said, "specially responsible for the logistics of this battle. Note that only one male is allowed to participate in each family, so as not to affect the spring of the territory." Plow."

"Yes, Your Highness," Togo Heiji said in command.

"How has the other party's situation changed recently?" After instructing Togo Heiji, Masara looked at Onishi Kuniji who was in charge of intelligence collection. <Keng, most of the guarding peasants and ashigaru samurai have returned to work in their own fields.” Onishi Kuniji immediately replied, “It’s just that the rebel team of the former Hirado Matsuura family headed by Kagote Tian Anchang has been in several houses recently. Troubles in the territory caused headaches for several tyrants. "Gage Shou Tian Anchang was the father of Gage Shou Tian Anjing, who was besieged and died by the coalition forces. He had already retired, but when the master's family was destroyed and his only son was also killed in battle, he resolutely organized more than a dozen people loyal to Hirado. The loyal members of the Matsuura family became bandits and made trouble for several tyrants everywhere.
