Warring States Eagle

This is a valley sandwiched between two mountains.

The wet and rainy weather in the south makes the entire canyon almost completely occupied by pines and cypresses and low shrubs all over the mountains.

"Huh!" As the sky darkened, strong winds blew up in the empty canyon, making the whole canyon rustle.

As night falls, the cold moon hangs high in the sky.

"Ta Tata..."

At this time, a group of troops slowly walked into the valley with torches.

"My lord, this is the valley." A man who is a bit short but looks very vigorous turned his head to face a man in the team wearing a red armor, tied with a water-colored knot, wearing a white star pocket and Said the man with the eight-phase front finger and a beautiful samurai sword hanging from his waist.

"Well, pass on the order and rest here tonight." Following the order of this person, a large army entered the valley one after another, and then quickly set up a temporary camp on the spot.And the person who gave the order was Zhengliang himself.In order to avoid being attacked by the enemy as the primary target because of wearing an overly conspicuous armor, Zheng Liang chose to wear such a slightly ordinary armor.

This was already the third night that Zheng Liang and others had entered the Jiulianzhong Mountain Range.

Three days ago, Masara offered the condition of handing over the territory of the Kita Shiga family to the Minami Shiga family, and then let Urita Yoshimi enter the city single-handedly to persuade him to surrender.

There is a reason why Masara offered this condition to the Minami Shiga family. Irita Yoshimi told Masamori that the Nanshiga and Beishiga families were originally one family, but they separated because of the competition for the position of the family governor. The elder brother controlled the Kita Shiga Home.And the younger brother took control of Minami Shiga's house.It turned out that Minami Shiga's family also had territory on the east bank of the Onogawa River.As a result, it was later taken over by the stronger Bei Zhihe family.Since then, Minami Shiga's family has been driven to the barren area of ​​Nanshan Castle, which is infested by the volcanic ash of the erupting Jiulian heavy volcano at any time.Fertile land far away from the Ono River basin.

At this time, the father of Shiga Kanlong, the governor of the Minamishiga family, was also rumored to have been assassinated by the Kita Shiga family.Therefore, the two families have always been at odds. If it hadn't been for the mediation by the Otomo family, the weaker Minami Shiga family would have been annexed by the Kita Shiga family.And the Minamishiga family has always planned to regain their original territory on the east bank of the Onogawa River. Now Masara promised that as long as the Minamishiga family is willing to surrender, the territory of the Kita Shiga family will be sealed to the Minamishiga family.

With the current interests, and the fact that Nanshan City had been besieged by the right front of the first army of the Luo family, the two brothers Shiga Jianlong and Shiga Yiqin once tried to go out of the city to fight.However, they were defeated by Yuancheng Temple Xinyin and Gongwen Zhongzhong, so they had to retreat back to the city and defend the city to the death.

Although they had been reminded by Otomo's family before, to beware of the invasion of the Luo family in Higo country in the west, so they also prepared some supplies for the defense of the city, but because Minamishiga's family was not very rich, the supplies in the city were insufficient. It can last for two months, if the Luo's family's army outside the city does not retreat, and Dayou's family does not have reinforcements, they will suffer.When the two brothers were feeling sad, Yoshimi entered the city to persuade him to surrender.In the eyes of the two brothers Shiga Jianlong and Shiga Yiqin.The previous Otomo family had always favored the Kita Shiga family, even when they supported each family to prevent the invasion of the Roche family.They only supported the Kita Shiga family, and did not care about their Minami Shiga family. Coupled with Irita Yoshimi's emotional persuasion, driven by interests, the two brothers broke the city and surrendered.

After receiving the surrender of the Minami Shiga family, Masara left some generals and military forces to stay in charge of the area to ensure that the siege of the Kita Shiga family and the Otomo family's forces in Ono County would continue to be maintained, and then the Kita Shiga family provided Under the leadership of the hunters in the mountains, he led the rest of the army to the Jiulianzhong Mountains.

To Masahiro's delight, there is indeed a mountain road leading to the Oita County area.The only problem is that this mountain road is just a mountain road for hunters to enter the mountain, so it is quite narrow and winding.

"My lord, please sit down." Just as Zhengliang was standing there waiting for everyone to set up the big tent, Irita Yoshimi, Shiga Kantaka and several other noble families in the straight county who had already surrendered to the Luo family flattered Masara to set up the maza (this time For the attack on Oita County, Masamori also brought the army of the powerful families directly into the county).Since they newly joined the Luo family, these powerful families were also worried that Zhengliang would destroy the bridge when crossing the river, so they all rushed to show their favor to Zhengliang along the way.

Zheng Liang nodded slightly to several people, sat on the Maza, and then said to the person standing beside him: "Chang Zeng, we are about to enter Oita County, then don't forget the bet you and I made. .”

The people beside Zhengliang also smiled wryly when they heard the words.After hearing the news, the other aristocratic clans who had joined the Luo family were immediately overjoyed.

The person Masara mentioned was Yoshioka Nagasuke, a retainer of the Otomo family who was captured by the Luo family two years ago.The Yoshioka family is a branch of the Otomo family's three-generation family governor Yorizong, so they are also Otomo's retainers for generations.It was only more than a decade ago that Yoshioka Nagasuke was defeated again and again in the battle with the Ouchi family in Kitakyushu, and even surrendered to the Ouchi family (not surrendered to become a retainer of the Ouchi family), although he later returned to the Ouchi family.But Yoshioka Nagasuke has been scorned by Otomo Yoshikan since then, and the Yoshioka family has also been suppressed by Otomo Yoshikan.Historically, Yoshioka Nagasuke was reused only after he came to power in Otomogi Town, and gradually showed his talent in diplomacy and strategy, and eventually grew into one of the famous "Bungo Three Elders" of the Otomo family .

Now, Yoshioka's fate changes with the arrival of Masara.During the Otomo family's attack on the Luo family two years ago, Yoshioka Changzhang unfortunately became a prisoner of the Luo family.Then he was placed under house arrest in the Luo Family Chuxiao Temple in Notakayama, Matsuura County, Hizen Country.Originally, he thought that Otomo Yoshikam would find a way to redeem him, but Otomo Yoshikan not only did not redeem him, but even prevented the Yoshioka family from redeeming him, and asked the Yoshioka family to choose another governor.This dealt a huge blow to Yoshioka Nagasuke's loyalty to the Otomo family.

Of course, Yoshioka Nagasuke is not such a person who loses his integrity easily.After several attempts by Zheng Liang to persuade him to surrender, he still misses Otomo's family (after all, it is considered a branch of Otomo's family, and he is probably worried that his surrender will bring bad luck to the family).It's just that the Otomo family has been defeated by the Roche family in the past few years, which made Yoshioka Nagasuke more and more disappointed with the Otomo family.He became more and more dissatisfied with Otomo Yoshikami, the family governor.

It wasn't until the coalition forces of the Ouchi family and the Ouchi family were defeated by the Luo family last year that he realized that it wasn't that the governor of the Ouchi family was incompetent at this time, but that the governor of the Luo family was too strong.In the past, his thinking was mainly focused on his own family (this is also one of the reasons why he has not surrendered to the Luo family. Before that, the Luo family did not even get him a chance to face it). Now he finally began to examine the Luo family. The young governor of the Luo family came.

But this time, Zheng Liang specifically found him before going out, and asked him if he would be interested in following the Luo family's army and marching to Bungo, the headquarters of Otomo's family.

After being shocked by the news that Luo's family was going to be a queen, he was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately burst out laughing.He recognized the ability of Luo Shizhenliang, and even more recognized the strength of the Luo family, but he thought that the Luo family's plan to come out soon after the big battle last year was too delusional.Let's not talk about whether the Luo's family can support another big battle in such a short period of time after the big battle last year. Only with the strength of the Dayou family, the Luo's family can be defeated Drive out of Bungo.So he immediately said that the Luo family would be defeated this time.

Zhengliang immediately turned around and ridiculed Yoshioka Nagasuke. Annoyed, Yoshioka Nagasuke simply swore that if the Luo family could conquer his family's territory, then he would surrender his entire family to the Luo family.After all, the territory of the Yoshioka family is in Oita County, the hinterland of the Bungo country. If the Luo family's army can really march here, it indicates that the Otomo family is not far from extinction.
