Warring States Eagle

The news that Dayouyi fell into the river and disappeared quickly spread back to Luo's family.Zhengliang can only say that it is God's will.

After asking Ari to lead people to continue to search for traces of Dayouyi Town in Zhou Fangguo, and to see people and corpses in life, Zheng Liang focused his attention on the situation inside Dayou's house.

At this time, within the Otomo family, after some hard work by Irita, the South and North Shiga families, the Tenmanda family, the Luci family, and the Bungo water army Wakabayashi who were in the Luji River (that is, the Ono River) basin along with Irita. The family chose to follow Otomo Yoshikam's last words, and enshrined Shioichimaru as the family governor.The Saeki family in the Saiki Bay area, the Tianbei family, Yoshizuru family, Tahara family, Kifuke family, Naita family, Fulai family, Takedazu and other wealthy families in the Kunisaki Peninsula, as well as the Saito family, Kosai family, The Tsukumi family, the Taguchi family, etc. all supported the son-in-law Otomo Yoshinori one after another.Except for these families, the Otomo family, the Yoshioka family, the Usuki family, the Ogami family, the Sada family, and the Shibata family remained silent and formed a neutral force.As for the other weaker powerful clans, these three camps were used as the benchmark, and they chose to join the camps and then waved their flags and shouted.

At this time, the battle for the governor of Dayou's family has entered the light.And the news of Otomo Yoshikam's death could not be concealed.This great change in Dayou's house immediately shocked the surrounding tycoons.

Among them, the most anxious one is naturally the Ouchi family.Ouchi Yoshitaka is very angry at this time, is he planning to take the opportunity to invade Bungo country?Due to the need to deal with the invading forces of the Nizi family who are in Ishijian country, and at the same time to guard against the Luo family who may tear up the peace agreement at any time because they have accepted the population of the Ouchi family, the Ouchi family really does not have the energy to invade Otomo's house.Otherwise, the Ouchi family may face the dilemma of going to war on three sides.

Be a qualified ally and help the Dayou family to make a smooth transition, right?But Ouchi's most ideal successor, Dayou Yizhen, disappeared at this time.Could it be that the second son Otomo Qingying came to power?At least he is also an heir with great inner blood.It's just that I'm afraid it will only backfire.If you think about it with your brain, you know that this will be opposed by all the retainers of the Otomo family.Use military power to exert pressure on the border.In order to force all the retainers of Otomo's family to choose Otomo Qingying?It seems that the power of Dayou's family is not bad.This trick may not be effective.

Just when Ouchi Yoshitaka was very angry.The Xiyuanji family in the southern Iyo country of Shikoku, which is separated by a sea, was greatly relieved. Since Otomo Yoshikam inherited the family governor of the Otomo family, he has invaded the southern Iyo country several times.As the only way to enter the South Iyo Kingdom from the sea, the Xiyuanji family has always been the main target of the invasion of the Otomo family. Now with the death of Otomo Yoshikan, at least the Xiyuanji family can free up their hands to fight with the Utsunomiya family, the Kono family, and the Utsunomiya family. The Ohno family and the Ijo family who invaded from Tosa had a scuffle.

But the Ito family, which is also adjacent to the Otomo family's territory Bungo country, was shocked, but immediately thought of the Hizen eagle that had already occupied the Higo country.So while paying attention to the internal situation of Otomo's family, he stepped up his defenses at the border with the Luo family's territory.As a result, Utake Mitai of Zhongshan City in Hyuga Country fell into the days of panic and panic every day.

At the same time, the Sagara family in Higo Higashi-Kuma County and the Shimadzu family in Satsuma also paid attention to the situation of Otomo's family.Of course, they hope that no accidents will happen to the Dayou family. After all, the Dayou family is keeping the Luo family in check, at least they can buy them more time to accumulate strength, but things often go against their hopes. [

In the middle of March in the 18th year of Tianwen ([-]), the Luo family officially marched to Bungo country.

This time, the Luo family was divided into four armies, the first army was headed by Zheng Liang himself, and it was divided into four armies: the main line, the right line, the left line, and the back line.The main general of this formation is also Masara himself, and the deputy generals are Watanabe Tsunade, Jindai Victory, Hidan, and Taketori Sheranmaru.There are 100 people in capes, 400 warriors in the samurai squad, 200 standing ashigaru in the fifth standing ashigaru squad, and 300 farmers and soldiers, a total of 2000 people.The leader of the right team will be Xinyin of Yuancheng Temple.The vice-commander Shigetada is official, and Naomi Fukunabeshima is the military commander. There are 400 ashigaru troops in the sixth standing ashigaru team, and 100 peasants and soldiers, a total of 500 people.The leader of the left formation will be Takasaka Masanobu, the deputy Yoshikawa Kyosuke, and the military order Fushimoto Masanobu. There will be a seventh standing ashigaru squad with 200 ashigaru and 300 farmers and soldiers, a total of 500 people.The rear formation is divided into cavalry squad, iron artillery squad, and logistics squad.The head of the cavalry squad will be Masahiro Isano, the lieutenants will be Mitsuki Akaana and Nakamoto Tanao, and there will be 500 standing cavalry; Prussia brought the iron cannon), and there are 150 ashigaru standing iron cannons; Honda Junzheng, the leader of the logistics team, has 1000 logistics farmers and soldiers.Together, the four formations have a total of 650 people.

In addition, Kansuke Yamamoto, the military adviser, is responsible for guarding Takamori Castle in Aso County, Higo Country, and is fully responsible for the intelligence system (that is, governing the Black Hawk, detectives, and messengers) and the logistics system.Accompanying Yamamoto Kansuke to stay in Takamori Castle was physician Mingfeng Xiuzheng.

In the second army, the leader will be Kinoshita Masao, the deputy generals Akaike Changren and Ander, and the fourth standing ashigaru team will have 400 ashigaru, 600 farmers and soldiers, and 60 iron cannon ashigaru.Two thousand and sixty people.

The third army, the main general will be the execution of the species, the deputy will be Asakura Sodi, and the army will be the Luo Shizhenxiu. The first standing ashigaru division has 600 ashigaru and 400 farmers and soldiers, a total of 2000 people.The rest of the teams and generals who have not been recruited stay on the spot and take charge of their respective responsibilities.

The three-way army, with a total of about 1 people, began to march towards the border of Otomo's territory.

It was the third army that fired the first shot.Under the leadership of the local hunters, the executive species and led the army, took advantage of the twilight to cross the Ichimoku Mountain at the border between the Higo Kingdom and the Bungo Kingdom, and then went deep into the mountain along the edge of the northern foot of the Jiuzhong Mountain Range. Then it went straight to the northwestern border of the county, and on the second day attacked the most important Jiuzhong town at the foot of the Jiuzhonglian mountain and went straight into the county.This Kokonoe-cho is not the famous Kokonoe-cho, a famous tourist destination known as the "dream" of Japan's first bridge in later generations. The present Kokonoe-cho is just a basin formed by the accumulation of volcanic ash formed by the eruption of an active volcano on the Kokonoe Mountains.Due to the fertile land, it became the center of Jiri-gun.

Shibata Reineng, the guard of Asahidake Castle in Kokonoe Town, was caught off guard. He was rushed into the city by the Luo family's army even before the city gate could be closed. Courtesy.After a battle between the two, Shibata Reineng was finally defeated, was shot through the thigh by Asakura Sodi, and finally died in the "rebellion" army.Asahiyake City immediately surrendered.

After completely controlling Asahidake City and Konoe Town, the executioner led the army to pursue the victory and directly killed the Kusu River birthplace at the junction of Bungo Nairi County, Kusu County, Oita County, and Hayami County, at the foot of Mount Aono .Here, he once again fought a fierce battle with the local wealthy Liguang family. In the end, more than 100 people led by Liguang Jianjiao, the governor of the Liguang family, died in battle, and the rest of the resistance fled to the mountains and ended.And the army that was carrying out the campaign also suffered a certain amount of damage. Coupled with the continuous traversing of mountains and ridges, the physical strength of the soldiers had reached its limit, and the logistics in the rear could not keep up, so they had to rest on the spot.

At this time, the other two armies of the Luo family also began to march out.Since the two armies had to pass through some roads that were being watched by the other side, Zheng Liang simply put on an attacking posture.

Kinoshita Masunao's Second Route Army officially set off from Bungo Kuniichi Castle and headed for Kakumore Castle in Kuju County.Accompanying him was the only large cylinder of the Luo family.

On Zhengliang's side, the troops were divided into two groups. On the other hand, the leader of the right group, Yuancheng Temple Shinyin, led the right group of 500 people to the northeast of Takamori City, and then to the south side of Jiuchonglian Mountain. The Nanshan Castle of the Minamishiga family marched.And Masara himself took the rest of the army to the upper reaches of the Luji River (Ono River) at the junction of Bungo Country's border Zhini County and Higo Country's Aso County.
