Warring States Eagle

The originally clear sky in the morning suddenly turned dark clouds around noon, and even strong winds blew up, threatening a storm.

"Abominable weather!" Otomo Yoshikam was sitting in the meeting hall of Miaojian City at this time.Originally, after he got the news that he failed to kill Luo Shizheng Liang, he was planning to immediately launch a fierce attack on Gao Liang City on the border of Luo Shi's family.But in such weather, finally had to give up.

It can be said that the matter of uniting with the big family has gone through a long period of negotiations.

In the past few years, with the rapid rise of the Luo family, not only did the Ouchi family back down repeatedly, but it also gradually aroused the dissatisfaction of the Ouchi family.Regarding the relationship between the Luo family and the Ouchi family.Before the Izumo battle between the Ouchi family and the Nizi family, in Otomo Yoshikam's view, it was indeed unbreakable.But since the fiasco of the Ouchi family in Izumo, the relationship between the Ouchi family and the Luo family began to gradually crack.

First of all, when the Ouchi family suffered a disastrous defeat in Izumo, the Luo family won a big victory in Hizen country.The stark contrast brought out the incompetence of the Ouchi family, which made Ouchi Yoshitaka very uncomfortable in his heart.More importantly, the Luo family replaced the Ouchi family's sphere of influence in Hizen, cutting off the possibility of the Ouchi family's involvement in Hizen.In addition, the Luo family took advantage of the conflict with the Harada family to extend their power to Yitu County in the Chikuzen Kingdom.From this moment on, Ouchi Yoshitaka has already begun to be dissatisfied with the Luo family in his heart.Of course, since the Ouchi family is still facing double-sided attacks from the Nizi family and the Ouchi family at this time, Ouchi Yoshitaka did not express these dissatisfaction, and even hoped that the Luo family would speed up the confrontation with the Ouchi family. On the one hand It can relieve the pressure from Otomo's family.On the other hand, it can also take the opportunity to weaken the strength of the Luo family.

only.As the Roche family continued to win.But Ouchi's family kept retreating, and Ouchi's family found that the strength of Luo's family was a little out of his control.At this time, Ouchi Yoshitaka hoped that Ouchi's family could be tougher.This can be seen from the fact that the Ouchi family kept silent when the Ouchi family conquered the Luo family several times.Of course, at this time, the Ouchi family still has the mentality of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight to reap the benefits.

As the shogunate government granted the official position of Dazai Shoji to Rashi Masara, and at the same time last year, the Luo family strongly rejected the Ouchi family's request to release Sagara Nagyui, which has already made the Ouchi family aware of it.The Luo family has become a threat to him.At this time, Yoshitaka Ouchi realized that the opportunity to jointly attack the Luo family with the Ouchi family had come, so he immediately secretly sent people to the Ouchi family to meet with Ouchi Yoshitaka in April this year, and discussed the joint containment of the two Roche's affairs.

Of course, the Ouchi family is not a fuel-efficient lamp. The Ouchi family did not immediately agree to the joint proposal put forward by the Ouchi family.But at this moment, Luo's family suddenly swept across the north-central region of Higo country with the momentum of autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, which shocked the Ouchi family and Otomo's family.What's more timely is that after returning to Nanfei, Nagyu Sagara also secretly sent someone to send a secret letter to Ouchi Yoshitaka that the civil strife in the Sagara family was actually the work of the Luo family.The furious Ouchi Yoshitaka immediately agreed to the joint proposal of Ouchi Yoshikam.And Otomo Yoshikami decided to attack Luo's family with all his strength.

then.Ouchi Yoshitaka sent Tao Longfang, who had previously clearly opposed the breaking of the covenant and counting the Luo family, to Anyi Kingdom to assist the Maori family against the Nizi family.At the same time, Sagara Taketo and Duanmu Kiyomasa were dispatched to Ishimi Country, where they were placed under house arrest in disguise.

Although both Tao Longfang and Sagara Taketo are dissatisfied with Ouchi Yoshitaka's arrangement.But after all, Ouchi's family is their main family, and Luo's family is just a tyrant who has a better relationship with them. There is absolutely no need to fall out with the main family because of the Luo's family.In the Warring States period where interests were paramount, they finally acquiesced in Ouchi Yoshitaka's approach.Of course, what Sagara Taketo and others did not expect was that when Sagara Taketo was discussing with his retainers about jointly dealing with the Luo family with the Otomo family, Sagara Risa overheard, so she immediately sent someone to send the letter urgently To get fat, but in the end it was a step too late.

In order to unite with the Ouchi family, Otomo Yoshikami spent a lot of money this time.First of all, he directly divided Chikugo Kingdom's Mihara County located on the north bank of the Chikugo River to the Ouchi family.Secondly, he also sent his son Ouchi Yizhen to the Ouchi family as a hostage.In the end, in order to get the important ministers of the family to agree to the alliance between the two families, he also secretly sent many valuable gifts.

After the two secretly reached an agreement, the Ouchi family pretended to cooperate with the Luo family to jointly attack the Ouchi family, and then the Ouchi family took the lead in attacking the Ouchi family's Mihara County in the Chikugo country.

In order to deceive Masara Rashi, the two families really fought with swords and guns in Mihara County.Of course, in order to accurately grasp the movements of Masara Roche, Otomo Yoshikan even joined forces with Hatata on Iki Island, and through Hatata secretly contacted the secret agent of Hatata lurking in the territory of the Roche family.It was through this careful work around Masara Roshi that Otomo Yoshikan accurately grasped Masara Roshi's plan to attack Bamboo Castle, and prepared the ambush deployment in advance before being discovered by the ninjas of the Roche family.

However, such a complete arrangement finally allowed Luo Shizhengliang to escape.Although this battle caused the Luo family to lose a lot of elites, Yoshikami Otomo was still very dissatisfied.

"No, you must inform the Ouchi family immediately. If you can't kill Luo Shi Masamori this time, you will inevitably suffer continuous revenge from the Luo family in the future. Moreover, you have already killed many elite Luo family this time. You must take this opportunity to kill him in one fell swoop." Defeat the Luo family." Otomo Yoshikam thought.The so-called taking advantage of your illness to kill you, Otomo Yoshikami can be said to have grasped the essence of this saying.

"According to the original plan made with the Ouchi family, after the First World War, the Ouchi family will first assist the Luo family to capture Kora Castle in Chikugo, and then the main family will assist the Ouchi family to capture the Luo family's Katsura city on the Hizen border. Ojo and Asahiyama Castle, in the end, the Ouchi family is responsible for attacking the Hizen country, and the Otomo family is responsible for the attack of the Chikugo country, dividing up the two countries. Even if Masara Rashi has escaped, the plan of the two families must continue. "

"In addition, the Ito family's army must have begun to march towards the border of Higo country at this time, and the Sagara family in Nanhigo Kuma County and other powerful families should also enter the battle at this time. Although the Shimadzu family has not yet made up their minds Abandoning the covenant with the Luo family, but after learning that Nanfei has actually fallen into the hands of the Luo family, the Shimadzu family will also be in great shock." Otomo Yoshikam kept thinking.

Just as Otomo Yoshikam thought, the Shimadzu family was indeed in great shock after learning that the Kai family, which currently controlled most of Nanhihou, was actually a subject of the Luo family.

This time, both Shimadzu Takahisa himself and the retainers of the Shimadzu family headed by Ijuin Tadaro believed that it was necessary to unite with the Otomo family to control the Luo family.However, at this time they had to face a dignified problem.That is, once the Shimadzu family reneges on their covenant with the Luo family, Shimadzu Takahisa's second son Yoshihiro Shimadzu, who is being held hostage by the Luo family at this time, is likely to be beheaded.

Of course, under the interests of the family, even his own son, Shimadzu Takahisa decided to give up. In this way, after discussion, the Shimadzu family unanimously decided to abandon the covenant with the Luo family.And the time to betray the covenant was chosen after the result of the decisive battle between the Luo family and the Otomo family came.

At the same time, Zhengliang finally held the first retainer appraisal after being ambushed.
