Warring States Eagle

()><首><发>In the forest, although most of the leaves of the trees are left with bare trunks, there are also quite a few winter plants that still have green leaves, due to the difference in light and nutrients and weeds The participation of vines and vines creates a unique winter field scene, which is very pleasing to the eye.Because of the terrain in the valley, the lofty blue sky is even more evident, dotted with white clouds, bringing out an indescribable leisure and tranquility.

Suddenly, a small black spot appeared faintly in the depths of the clouds, and gradually the black spot became bigger and closer, and it turned out to be a vigorous chestnut goshawk.I saw it soaring in the sky, like a king inspecting his own country, the wings that were gradually flying lower and lower cast a shadow of death on the ground.

"Puff!" Probably because he couldn't stand the mental pressure, a fat pheasant flew out of the withered yellow grass where it was hiding and exposed it to the sun.For this "delicious" goshawk that suddenly appeared, it didn't seem impatient, but gradually folded its wings and approached the prey. In addition to the sound of the wind passing by the wings, there was a crisp bell sound.The pheasant also seemed to realize his stupid behavior, and tried his best to flap its short wings and flew towards a thorn.

"Whoosh!" At this moment, a feathered arrow flew over, and the pheasant fell to the ground.

"Your Highness is good at archery!" Ahri ran over and picked up the prey.

"Take it and deal with it. Remember to get some good mud by the river." Zheng Liang handed the longbow in his hand to Murakami Takeshi behind him and said.

"Yes!" Ari and Fei Duan cheerfully took orders.Since the gourmet restaurant jointly established by Taijiu Ling and Zhengliang's family members launched the "beggar's chicken", it immediately became popular in the Luo family's territory.Many people in the territory rushed to the "gourmet house" in Ye Gaoshan or Anyue City to taste this delicacy.And Ari and Fei Duan are even more crazy supporters of this "beggar's chicken".Now they are preparing to cook this wild game according to Zheng Liangjiao's method.

"Hey! It's a bit boring!" Zheng Liang sighed secretly.On the third day after the Luo family's New Year's Eve banquet, after arranging all the affairs of the territory, Masara led a cloaked crowd of 100 people and a low-level samurai team of 300 people. Accompanied by Xiuzheng, Aguda, Kato Danzo, Ahri, Hidan, and Komon Shigetada, they walked along Sefukuji Castle, Ryobe Castle, and Katsuo Castle, then entered Chikuzen Kingdom, and finally arrived at the junction of Chikuzen Kingdom and Buzen Kingdom Takatori Mountain Castle is the Ouchi family.After that, he is about to embark on the journey of Ouchi's family to attack Nizi's family.

At this moment, tyrants from the Chikuzen and Buzen kingdoms gathered.They all came in response to Yoshitaka Ouchi's call.Don't look at these guys who are friendly on the surface, but in fact they are constantly fighting secretly.Many families who have hatred for each other are trying to think about each other.And the Luo family, which has risen like a star, is the focus of these tyrants' attention.Especially after seeing Roche Fanna's uniform weaponry and attire.Luo's family has become the focus of discussion among the tyrants.

Faced with such a situation, in order to deceive the tyrants, especially the Ouchi family, under the suggestion of the military adviser Akabane Shinnosuke, Masara led the team to hunt in the wild mountains and forests.Sure enough, this move had a lot of effect. Some tyrants shook their heads after seeing Zheng Liang's move.I can't help but comment in my heart: I deliberately have more high-end equipment than others, coupled with a performance of "traveling in the mountains and rivers", it reflects that.It's like a nouveau riche.This "Eagle of Hizen" is obviously showing off.

And Zhengliang didn't care about these arguments, and really started hunting seriously.secretly.On the other hand, he sent people to step up the drawing of the topographical map along the road to provide information for the simulated sand map of the Luo family, and at the same time sent people to investigate the information of the various tycoons who participated in the attack on Nizi's house this time, trying to know themselves and the enemy.

"Your Highness seems very unaccustomed to this kind of life." Akabane Shinnosuke who was on the side saw Masara's expression and said with a smile.

"Hmm!" Zheng Liang let out a response from his throat.All of a sudden, he broke away from the busy work every day, and suddenly lived a few days that were a bit too leisurely, which made Zheng Liang feel very uncomfortable.

"Hehe, Your Highness, there is no other way!" Akabane Shinnosuke said with a smile. "My family has been too conspicuous recently. If I don't cover it up a little bit, it will definitely become the target of other powerful people to guard against."

"It seems that it's impossible not to pretend!" Zheng Liang sighed.It can be said that the gun hits the head of the bird!This principle of later generations is also applicable no matter in that era.Besides, the main family has been too troublesome recently. First, it fought a battle with the coalition organized by the Shao Er family, and almost drove the famous Shao Er family who had dominated Hizen for hundreds of years out of Hizen.He even replaced the Shaoer family as the ruler of Hizen's country, and even risked offending the Ouchi family, had a big fight with the traditional retainers of the Ouchi family, the Harada family, and finally forcibly obtained the bridgehead to enter Chikuzen Shenjiangyue City.This move of the Luo family really plucked the hair out of the tiger's head.So the Luo family didn't want to be the focus of attention.

Warring States period.If the family is too weak, it will be regarded as a piece of "fat pork" by the surrounding tyrants, and everyone wants to come and take a bite; but if the family is full of aggressiveness, it will also be regarded as a threat by the surrounding tyrants, so they unite and come together to fight against each other. weaken you.Therefore, it must be realized in moderation.What Zhengliang has to do now is to reduce the attention of others to the Luo family.After all, the history of Luo's family is only two years old, so the foundation is not enough.We must take the opportunity to develop well.

"Does Your Highness feel that there are a little less hunting grounds here? And the prey is limited?" Akabane Shinnosuke continued.

"Hmm!" Compared to the hunting grounds in the mountains near Anyue City, the hunting grounds here are indeed a little less.The prey was nothing more than some pheasants, hares and so on, and I didn't even see the footprints of a wild boar.

"Then you?" Speaking of this, Akabane Shinnosuke deliberately paused, and then continued, "Are you planning to make the world your hunting ground?"

"Hmm...huh?" Masara finally raised his eyelids to look at Akabane Shinnosuke.The eyes also suddenly become energetic.

"Your Highness, although I didn't follow His Highness from the beginning of his career. But in just two years, our family has changed from an unknown little wealthy family in Hizen to the guardian of Hizen, controlling the land of a country." Akabane Nobunosuke Changing his idle demeanor, he suddenly became serious and said, "Your Highness, the retainers are willing to follow His Highness in order to be able to survive in this troubled world, and even get greater merit, so that the family can continue for a long time. Therefore, after obtaining a country with His Highness, they will hope to obtain greater merit."

"Greater merit? You mean?"

"Looking at all the daimyos. In the Western Kingdom, the Hosokawa family, the Ouchi family, and the Otomo family are all overlords for a while. I hope that His Highness can become such an existence. This is also the wish of all the retainers." Akabane Nobunosuke said with a solemn salute.

"Use the entire Kyushu as the hunting ground of Luo's family?" Zhengliang said to himself.Regarding the question of the retainers, Zheng Liang really didn't seriously consider it.When he first came here, Zhengliang's only purpose was to survive in this troubled world.As the Luo family grew stronger, the requirements for survival became higher and higher.Now after becoming the lord of a country, the retainers in the family have new ambitions.

But after thinking about it, Zheng Liang also felt that it was normal for his retainers to have such thoughts.They follow you.Those who fight for you are just to make meritorious deeds.In order to allow the family to continue in wealth and honor.And the greater the power of the Patriarch, the better their situation.Besides, even if Luo's family doesn't intend to join the troubled waters of feuding among heroes, will others allow it?Where there are rivers and lakes, there are disputes.Until the whole country is unified, such disputes will not be reduced.That being the case, instead of passively participating, it is better to actively participate and hold the initiative in your own hands?Thinking of this, Zheng Liang couldn't help finding out sadly.Sometimes wars are not actually initiated by people, but are caused by the surrounding environment. Generally speaking, history is the way it is.Even if you intend to stagnate, the wheel of history continues to run on its established track, and even drags you forward.

"No. Your Highness, your hunting ground is this world!" Akabane Shinnosuke reminded.In his opinion, the stage of Kyushu is too small, and the owner of his family should be the world at present.

"Zosuke! The stage of the world. It's still too big for our family with less than one country. Let's be more pragmatic. For now, let's try our skills on the stage of Kyushu!" Zheng Liang looked at the distant Sky said slowly.Rhetoric is matched by strength.With the current strength of the Luo family, it is better to think about how to earn their own world in Kyushu.Thinking of this, Zheng Liang couldn't help feeling suddenly ambitious.

"Since that's the case, Your Highness, this time we will support the Ouchi family's attack on the Nizi family, and our family will have a lot to do." Akabane Shinnosuke said in a favorable manner.

"Oh?" Masara turned to look at Akabane Nobunosuke.

"The primary purpose of His Highness's trip is to appease the suspicion of the Ouchi family, the overlord? Not only does the main family now control most of Hizen's land, but it has just extended its power into Chikuzen. It is impossible for the Ouchi family not to be suspicious of the main family. But what was unexpected was that the Ouchi family finally acquiesced in the fact that their own family had already occupied the city walled in the mediation of Shenjiang Yuecheng, which is obviously inseparable from His Highness's support execution this time." Akabane Shinnosuke said.

Masara nodded, motioning for Akabane Shinnosuke to continue talking.

"In addition, although our family has arranged for detectives to strengthen the investigation of powerful intelligence such as Chikuzen and Chikugo, this is far from being comparable to observing the situation of these powerful powers at close range. The family can also make a good investigation through this time. These powerful situations."

"Yeah!" Zheng Liang nodded.Regardless of the fact that Zheng Liang only brought 400 people with him this time, in fact, in the dark, there are still a lot of black eagles and detectives following secretly.In addition to secretly protecting Zhengliang, they also had the task of scouting powerful intelligence, drawing topographical maps along the way, and even some temporary tasks arranged by Zhengliang.

"From this point of view, I am really looking forward to this trip!" Akabane Shinnosuke, who received Masara's affirmative reply, said, "I believe that following His Highness this time, I will definitely see many interesting things."
