Warring States Eagle

Chapter 344 The Vanishing Bear

On the afternoon of May 1541, [-], Tianwen Ten Years.

The weather was not beautiful, and in the afternoon, it began to rain heavily.Everything around is shrouded in misty mist.The roads have also become muddy, especially those mountain roads, which look extremely slippery.

Just this afternoon, Zheng Liang made a major decision.That is to support the Longzao family.

If ranking according to the degree of danger to the Luo family, the Longzhaosi family undoubtedly ranks first.Zhengliang has always wanted to get rid of this archenemy of the Luo family who dominates Hizen.It's just that, at this moment, it's not the time for the Longzhaosi family to perish.Because the Luo family needs a shield that can stand in the front and resist the army of the young family.And the Longzaosi family at this moment is undoubtedly the best candidate for this shield.

The Luo family's rise was too fast, so fast that they didn't even have a firm foundation, so the Luo family needed time, half a year or even a year to gain a firm foothold, and then they could face the coalition forces organized by the Shaoer family.If only relying on the strength of the Shao Er family, the Luo family would not be afraid at all.And in a few years, after the rest of the tyrants gradually got rid of the influence of the Shaoer family, the Shaoer family definitely couldn't afford to organize such a coalition army to besiege the Luo family.It's a pity that the rise of the Luo's family was a bit too early and rushed, and the Shao'er family still has the influence to order other families.

Of course, such a rapid rise was not what Zheng Liang expected.History always has its own rules of progress. What Zheng Liang can do is to seize the opportunity and move forward step by step.He is powerless to change history.Therefore, the sudden rise of the Luo family.It can be said that it is the process of history that is driving it, and Zheng Liang is just the one at the helm.

Due to the absence of important ministers, Zhengliang's decision to support the Longzhaosi family did not arouse objections from the retainers accompanying the army.

It's just that the heavy rain was so heavy that the army couldn't move forward at all.The Luo family's army stayed in place for two days, and only started to move forward on the morning of May 1541th, Tianwen Ten Years [-].

Braving the light rain, the army stepped on the muddy mountain road, first circled the Hirai family's Suko Castle, and then walked along the bank of the Liujiao River, where the river had swollen several feet.

"Your Highness, the Lujia City ahead has been occupied by the Oda family and the Takagi family." Ari, who was in charge of scouting information, reported back and forth at this time.

"What?" Zheng Liang was taken aback.Even if attacked suddenly.It won't be captured so quickly.

"It is said that the Oda family and the Takagi family took the ranks of the Ryuzoji Cheng family and the Ryuzoji family to persuade them to surrender. The defenders in the city panicked because they were not restrained by a general. The Oda family and the Takagi family seized this opportunity and took advantage of the heavy rain. He broke into the city in one fell swoop and captured the city." Ari continued to report.

"Hey, time doesn't wait for me!" Zheng Liang exclaimed, "Order to let the army rest on the spot, and send people to sneak into the city to check for news."

Following Zhengliang's order.The army settled down quietly.

In the afternoon, information came one after another.

First, there is the news of the closest city, Lujiao.As Ari reported earlier, Lujia City was occupied by the Oda family and the Takagi family's army yesterday.

Then, the news that shocked Zheng Liang the most was that Saga Shuijiang City was captured, or that the Ryuzoji family made the same choice as recorded in history and chose Kaesong to surrender.In fact, the Longzhaosi family had no other choice. After the converging troops out of the city were controlled by the Shaoer family's army, there were not many remaining guards in Shuijiang City, even if they stood firm.Under the attack of the army of more than [-] people outside, it will fall sooner or later.

So he finally chose to surrender.

And what about Shaoer Dongshang?He too is as recorded in history.He acquiesced to the actions of Baba Yorishu, Shendai Shengli and others, and allowed them to slaughter the Longzooji clan in Shuijiang City.In addition to the Cheng family of Longzhaosi and the family of Longzhaosi who had been killed, the Shuijiang Longzhaosi clan was brutally killed.This time, the difference from history is that the Ryuzoji family who escaped in history also failed to escape due to a leg injury, and was eventually taken over by the samurai of Baba Laizhou.

"Is it still a step late?" Zheng Liang stood on a hillside.Looking at Lujiao City in the distance, he muttered to himself.

Immediately, Zheng Liang issued an order to retreat.With the demise of the Longzaosi clan, it will be a matter of time before the remaining Qingqi City Kaesong surrenders, and it is meaningless for the Luo family to rescue the Longzaosi clan.So Zheng Liang gave the order to retreat without hesitation.Otherwise, if you stay here, you may be blocked by the Hirai family who reacted. If the people in Lujiacheng were smarter, then Luo Shifan would be in danger of being blocked back and forth.

With the demise of the Longzaosi family, the Luo family will face the army summoned by the Shaoer family alone.

"Your Highness, we found pursuers in the rear." At this time, Ari came to report.

"Chasing soldiers?" Zheng Liang couldn't help being surprised that there were still people chasing them in such weather.

"It looks like it's the troops in Lujiao City." Ari said.

"Hmph, send an order to speed up!" Zheng Liang snorted and gave the order decisively.

……

In Xiaocheng County, on a mountain road leading to Chudao County, three teams with different flags and pointers are moving fast.

Wearing a suit of armor, Baba Yorishu rode his horse across the ditch. Right now, he, Masamitsu Oda and Kanbo Takagi are leading more than 400 troops, chasing the Luo family's army all the way.Just a few days ago, he and Shendai successfully slaughtered the Longzoo Temple clan and made a great contribution.Today, he led the advance army of the Shaoer family to the city of Lujia, which had been occupied by Oda Masamitsu and Takagi Jianfang.After receiving the appearance of the Luo family's army nearby, he was taken aback, thinking that the Luo family had captured the territory of the Hirai family, and then began to take advantage of the chaos to occupy the territory of the Longzouji family.

Just as he was about to send someone to report urgently to Younger Dongshang who was repairing in Shuijiang City, he suddenly discovered that the Luo family's army had begun to retreat.After discussing with Oda Masamitsu and Takagi Jianfang, the three of them agreed that the opportunity must not be missed, and immediately led the army to pursue the Luo family's army from behind.

On one side of the road are mountains and forests, while on the other side are paddy fields already full of puddles, with continuous heavy rain.There is too much water in the field, and the newly inserted seedlings are almost submerged in water.

Even the heavy rain on the day made the road quite muddy. Even Baba Yorishu, Oda Masamitsu, and Takagi Kambo who were riding war horses were proceeding cautiously at this moment.

Along the way, Bachang Laizhou dispatched detectives to follow the Luo family's army and report back to him the movements of the Luo family's army in time.He didn't know much about this newly-emerged Luo family. The only thing he knew was their patriarch, Masara Roshi, known as the Matsuura Eagle.I heard that this person was not only brave in battle, but also cunning.Make people hard to guard against.So he also woke up [-]% of his spirit along the way, as long as his scouts can keep up with everyone in the Luo family and keep every move of the Luo family army under surveillance, everything will be fine. .

Of course, although he was cautious in action, but in thought, he extremely despised the head of the Luo family.In his opinion, a small tyrant is also worthy of trying to get his hands on the overlord of Feiqian.It's ridiculous.The real overlord should belong to his main family, the Shao Er family.

As a matter of fact, the Shao Er family does have its arrogant capital.The time when the Shaoer family was at its peak.Obtained the guardianship of Chikuzen, Buzen, Higo, Tsushima and other countries, and occupied Dazaifu.

It's a pity that strength cannot be linked to past honors.However, Raizhou Baba still firmly believes in the dream of the Shaoer Family being able to dominate Kyushu again.

"Quick, send an order, let the army speed up!" It was about to enter dusk, and the army was still walking at a leisurely pace, and Lai Zhou was a little anxious.

Oda Masamitsu and Takagi Kanbo who were not far behind heard the words and looked at each other, but did not make a sound.Baba Laizhou has just made great achievements.There was such a powerful aura that the two of them wisely chose to keep their mouths shut.However, they were somewhat dissatisfied in their hearts. The team had been walking behind the Luo family's army for nearly two hours, and the soldiers seemed a little tired. It was best to stop and rest at this time.

After the army bypassed a small hill, a vast flat land appeared in front of them.

Finally, there is no need to walk the muddy mountain road.Everyone couldn't help but relax, and some even began to appreciate the scenery in the wild.The team suddenly became loose.

"Kill!" Suddenly, there was a shout from the other side of a forest ahead.

"Heh!" "Hiss!" Suddenly, there was a burst of shouts from people and horses.

Everyone turned their heads to look.

Suddenly a group of 50 cavalry rushed out from the other side of the woods.Then rushed towards the coalition forces.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" The coalition soldiers who reacted immediately shouted.But there is still a part of the army that has not come out of the mountain road, and coupled with the momentary slack just now, these soldiers have no time to form a team.

This cavalry is exactly the cavalry brigade of the Luo family.Before deciding to rescue Ryuzoji's family, Masara asked Miyazawa Heihachi to return to the territory, and brought the cavalry to Takeo Castle, preparing to take Masara back to the territory.When Masarai learned that Lukari Castle's troops were chasing after him, while leading the army to retreat, he sent someone to inform Miyazawa Heihachi, who had arrived in Takeo Castle, to lead the cavalry to meet him.

Fifty cavalry led by Miyazawa Heihachi crashed into the formation of the coalition army like the wind and lightning.Soldiers of the coalition forces along the way hid one after another.The soldiers who couldn't dodge were directly knocked out by the galloping horses.

The chaos at the exit of Pingdi directly prevented the people who were still in the mountain path from rushing out to support in time.Baba Yorishu, Oda Masamitsu, and Takagi Kambo who were still in the mountain path obviously also noticed the situation ahead, but because of the narrow mountain path and the paddy field with puddles on the other side of the mountain path, they could not go to the front in time to command.

"Kill!" Not long after the cavalry rushed over, the Luo family's army that had been moving ahead suddenly came back.

……

The Ro family's counterattack against the pursuers led by Baba Yorishu, Oda Masamitsu, and Takagi Kenbo ended with a big victory for the Ro family.

Baba Laizhou, Oda Masamitsu, and Takagi Kanbo fled back to Lukai City in embarrassment with the rout.In this service, the Luo family captured more than a dozen ranks and captured more than [-] prisoners.After several days of two wars, the Luo family has captured more than [-] prisoners.These captives will be directly filled into the army of Luo's family's slaves, speeding up the construction of the marching avenue in the Luo's family's territory.

In the evening, the Luo family's army finally returned to Takeo City.At the same time, he also got the exact news about the genocide.

What surprised him the most was that the future Hizen Bear had disappeared.
