Warring States Eagle

Tianwen 14 years, the end of March.

Juchi County, Higo is nestled in Fucheng, and there is a thick fog outside the city.There was a chilling atmosphere in the air.With an absolute superior force of [-] troops, the Luo family besieged Nianfu City with only [-] people, making it difficult for birds to enter.

At this moment, the main formation of the Luo family is built on a small hill only 500 meters away from the city.

Not far away, the moist water vapor of the Muye River was constantly transpiring, and there was a thick fog covering the sky in front of my eyes, like a huge curtain hanging down there.It is already the end of March and the rainy weather in April is about to enter.During this season, a layer of mist rises in the mountains of Higo.Thick mist gushed out from the mountains, and then mixed with the transpiring water vapor from the Kinogawa River, covering the entire Nifu City.

Looking from the main camp of Luo's family, there is a vast expanse of whiteness everywhere, and there is not even a vague outline of the Waimaru Tengumaru mounds, stone walls, and Horikiri of Nimufu Castle. [

"This kind of thick fog makes our family's iron cannon technique unleash its power!" At this moment, Masaragi was sitting on a Maza, holding a military equipment, and said to Kansuke Yamamoto, a military adviser sitting beside him.

"That's right, I grew up in the East China Sea, and the mountains there always produce thick fog in this season. This season is indeed not a good time to go out." Kansuke Yamamoto responded.

"Have the troops of the other small wealthy families in Juchi County come?" Zheng Liang continued to ask.

"After receiving the recruitment order from our family, they rushed here. Now that our family is a well-deserved name in Juchi County, they naturally dare not make mistakes. This time is a good time to show their allegiance to our family. Naturally, they will not let go of such an opportunity." Kansuke Yamamoto immediately replied.

"Hmph, they are acquainted." Zheng Liang snorted.After solving the Nubu family, apart from the Juchi family in front of him, the rest of the small wealthy families and small lands in the entire Juchi County are no longer to be feared.

Originally, Zheng Liang planned that if anyone dared to disobey the order this time, he would immediately use this as an excuse to eradicate these wealthy families. As a result, they were all very shrewd, after receiving the recruitment order from the Luo family.Not only did they immediately bring the army to assist the Luo family in besieging Nianfu City, they even brought this year's annual tribute.You must know that they only paid the annual tribute to Dayou's family once at the beginning of the year, and now that the new master has arrived, they had no choice but to raise enough money and food for the annual tribute with tears in their eyes.The arrival of the money and food just relieved the logistical pressure on the Luo family.

Of course, these weeds will definitely be a hidden danger in the territory, especially when the law of the Luo family starts to be practiced soon.Certainly, just like in the past in Hizen and Chikugo, there will be resistance from many local wealthy families and small landowners.So this time, Zhengliang decided to strike first, instead of waiting for them to start resisting before sending troops to pacify them one by one, he simply transferred them in advance, and then assigned the territories of some retainers who supported the Luo family's policy to Feihou.As for immigration, we have to take into account the feelings of the people who are unable to leave their homeland and the financial pressure of the territory.This time it will be avoided, just move some refugees and the people from the rest of the area who have recently taken refuge in the Luo family to move here.

"My lord, the troops of each family in Juchi County have been in place according to my family's orders, and are waiting for my lord's orders." At this moment, a messenger came forward to report.

"Okay, pass the order and go out!" Zheng Liang heard.His face immediately became serious, and he stood up directly from the marching horse, and then raised his eyes to look at the city surrounded by thick fog, pressed down the weight of the army in his hand, and finally gave an order.

"Woohoo! Woohoo!"

Following Zheng Liang's order, there was soon a loud shout of soldiers before the attack from the foot of the mountain, and at the same time there was the sound of the flag rattling.

Immediately, the taiko drum beat and thumped, in the thick fog.I couldn't see the troops coming out of battle, but I could only hear the footsteps of several soldiers, which seemed to be rustling on everyone's heart.

At this moment, the soldiers and ants of Echihou gathered under the city of Niaofu.The road up the mountain is not spacious, and the Luo family's logistics army is trying to widen it so that the follow-up troops can be deployed sufficiently.

The first sequence of the siege was dominated by the small nobles from Juchi County and even Yamaga County, and the miscellaneous soldiers from the small fields. They carried dart boards on their shoulders and sand bags on their backs.There are also large wooden stakes for the siege gate ahead.Followed by the warriors of the Luo family, with long spears, bows and arrows, and even iron cannons.Proceed in order.

As the army advanced, the outline of Niaofu City gradually became clearer.The front of the mountain road leads to the Izumaru Tengumaru of Nifu Castle. After a Horikiri, there is a four-room high stone wall, and on top of the stone wall is a curved wheel covered with a layer of wood.Every other section of the crank wheel has a black hole for bow and arrow shooting.On the left and right sides of the stone wall, there is also a tall arrow scull, and several Juchi family soldiers are stationed above with bows and arrows.On the tiger's mouth in the center of the stone wall is the Otemon Gate, which is also the destination of the siege army.

The dense fog still enveloped the city of Wufu.On the mountain road, a steady stream of troops marched forward, and the end could not be seen from the beginning. They were advancing cautiously, and the flags behind them were swaying wildly with the mountain wind...

Just when the Luo family was aggressively attacking Kikuchi Yoshitake's Nifu Castle, Yoshioka Nagasuke was looking at a letter from Bungo with a serious face in the camp of the Higo Allied Forces in Heshi County, Higo Country.

"How, how is the progress of the Chikugo army?" Tianbei Jiansheng who was on the side asked immediately before Yoshioka Changsuke handed him the letter.Although the main responsibility for this big defeat in Juchi County was still on those wealthy clans of Feihou who cowered before the battle, Tianbei Jiansheng took it as his own shame.So he was particularly worried about the progress of the army along the Zhuhou road that also aimed to encircle Wei and save Zhao.

In the bottom of his heart, he actually hoped that the army along the way also encountered setbacks, so that in comparison, his defeat this time would be less conspicuous. [

"The situation is not good!" Facing the urgent inquiries of his colleagues, Yoshioka Nagasu frowned and said.

"Oh? What's the situation?" After hearing Yoshioka Nagasuke's answer, Tian Bei Jiansheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued to ask.

"The opponent is defending Gaoliang City, so that our army can only camp outside the city. So far, there has been no progress." Yoshioka Nagasu said.

"If this is the case, I am afraid that the Luo family's army will withdraw after the decree. The latest information came yesterday. The Luo family has basically assessed Juchi County and is currently besieging Kikuchi Yoshitake's Nifu City. Once the Nifu City is captured, its troops will It will point directly at us. With the strength of these fat queens in the camp, it is absolutely impossible to withstand the attack of the Luo family's army." (To be continued.
