Warring States Eagle

Chapter 658 Surrounding Changes

Masara Rashi, the eagle of Kyushu Hizen, led an army to leave Takamori Castle, Aso County, Higo Country, in the middle of March.

At this time, the Luo family's soldiers divided into three groups, and marched towards Zhirui County and Jiuzhu County in the territory of Oyou's family in Bungo Kingdom.Within a few days, they went straight to Konoe Town, Noyama Castle, Tsuga Murei Castle, and Oka Castle in the counties.

But at this time, the Luo family finally encountered fierce resistance from the Otomo family, because the household members of the Otomo family who were split by the successor of the family governor quickly united and blocked the Luo family's army from the outside of Ono County and Oita County. .

Just when Dayou's family thought they were in a tug-of-war with the Luo's family from now on, the Luo's family governor quickly persuaded Nanshan City to surrender, and then crossed the mountainous Jiulianzhong Mountains, occupying Xiongmuli City like a heavenly soldier, and quickly united with the rest of the family. Two groups of Luo's family's army attacked Dayou's family's reinforcements at Muli City at the corner of Jiuzhu Army at night, turning the confrontation between the two sides in one fell swoop.

Immediately afterwards, regardless of the exhaustion of his own army, the Eagle of Hizen resolutely turned his troops around and rushed into the western part of Oita County with lightning speed after solving the reinforcements from Otomo's family.In just a few days, the Yoshioka family, a wealthy family in the western part of Oita County, announced their surrender. The Sada family and the Shibata family, which lost troops and generals in the previous night attack of the Jiuzhu Army, were exterminated. After that, the Hizen Eagle entered the central region with a big victory , While mopping up local wealthy families such as the Saito family, Kosai family, and Taguchi family who also lost troops in the night raid, they approached the Otomo family's ruling center Funaikan.

At this moment, something even more shocking happened.At the end of March, one of the commanders-in-chief of the Allied Forces of Dayou in Ono County entered the Luo family secretly.Together with the Lu Ci family, they wiped out the local ten thousand Tian family and other wealthy families in one fell swoop.Since then, Ono County, including Weiping Ore and other places, have quickly fallen into the hands of the Luo family.And this way, the Luo family's army also took the opportunity to seize the opportunity that everyone could not react in time, and attacked Nakatani Pass, an important passageway connecting the western part of Bungo Haibu County with Ono County.Blocked the forces of the Saiki family in Haibu County at the other end of the Qingshan Mountains.

After completely controlling Ono County, the army of the same group marched non-stop to the coastal area of ​​Haibu County.The local Usuki family and the Tsukumi family also lost troops in the previous battles at this time, and they have already established a law to resist the attack of the Luo family, so the coastal area in the northern part of Haibu County also quickly fell into the pocket of the Luo family. The Kuriyama Castle, Tsuruga Castle and other branch cities responsible for the inner hall of the Kofufu also fell. At this time, the army of the road had begun to regroup at Tsuruga Castle on the border between Haibu County and Oita County, and was ready to attack Oita County from the south at any time. Then press the government hall.

It has been several generations that the Otomo family has not been beaten by the enemy to the inner hall of the ruling center.Outraged by this incident.The Saeki family, who were in charge of guarding the border in the southeastern part of Haibu County, was furious. Regardless of the safety of the border, they quickly assembled an army. family territory), and confronted the Luo family army led by Masanobu Takasaka gathered here.

And in the north of Bungo, the rich families of Kunisaki and Hayami also took action.Attempts to quickly support the House Museum.But they debated when to send troops to support. [

"I'm afraid this time is a conspiracy by Rutian Qincheng!" Tian Beijianzhong, the new governor of the Tianbei family (Tianbei Jiansheng's younger brother, inherited the position of family governor of the Tianbei family after Tian Beijian's death), said.

The previous betrayal of Irita Jincheng is well known to everyone. Apart from being angry, everyone is also worried that the attack on the palace hall is a conspiracy.What's more, at this time, most of the Otomo clans in Sumi County and Kunisaki County opposed Shioichi Maru, who was being attacked at this time, to inherit the family governor.If it weren't for the house building, it would be a symbol of the Otomo family's rule of Bungo.They will not even send troops to rescue, but even if they rescue, they must first ensure their own safety.Everyone has already had a deep understanding of the insidiousness of the Luo family's Hizen Eagle before. If this time it is really a conspiracy by Hizen Eagle and Irita Mosei to lure them into Oita County.They naturally have to be extra careful.

So even though the crowd had gathered their troops, they still maintained a posture of paying attention.Did not send troops immediately.It was just because of their slight hesitation that they completely lost the chance to rescue the inner hall of the mansion (historians will also believe that if they can rescue the inner mansion in time in this battle, at least Otomo’s family will not perish so quickly of).

At the beginning of April, an army of more than [-] people led by Masara finally surrounded the Funaikan. At this time, in Oita County, except for the branch city Takasaki Mountain Castle at the junction of Oita County and Hayami County, and the one built at the mouth of the Ono River Except for the area east of Tsuruzaki City, the rest of the area has been occupied by the Luo family.In the south, the army of the Luo family gathered in Tsuruga Castle at the junction of Oita County and Kaibu County.

What made Zhengliang even more happy was that after several days of fierce fighting, Kinoshita Masunao and Andel finally captured Kakumure Castle in Jiuzhu County with the Ogami family as internal support.When the city was broken, Osai Yamato Mori, Tsukumi Misaku Mori, and Taguchi Kurotosa three planned to commit suicide together with the body of the Former Lord Otomo Yoshikan in order to prevent the ancestor's body from being desecrated by the Luo family.Fortunately, this move was discovered in advance by the secret work that Ogamizheng arranged next to the three of them, so Ogamizheng led people to snatch Otomo Yoshikan's body back, and fought fiercely with the middle and small Sai Yamatomori, Tsukumi Misaku, and Taguchi Tibetan Zuo were killed.

After capturing the outside of Xiongmuli City, under the persuasion of Dashen Zhenzheng, the guard of Risheng City near the border between Bungo Kingdom and Bungzen Kingdom, Fanzu Jianzhi also finally surrendered. Since then, Jiuzhu County has also fallen into the Luo family hands.After leaving part of the army to garrison the city, Kinoshita Masao was leading the army to escort the remains of Otomo Yoshikan and others and their heads to the camp where Masara was located.

Such a series of actions by the Luo family finally attracted the attention of neighboring countries at this time.

Since March, the Bungo area of ​​Otomo's house has been extremely lively.First, the news of the death of Otomo's family governor came out, and then the dispute of Otomo's family governor that shocked Kyushu occurred.Afterwards, the Luo's family, who was unwilling to be lonely, took the opportunity to go out to Fenghou, trying to avenge the ambushes of Dayou's family last year.

At first, the Luo's family took advantage of the chaos and robbed each other.Everyone believed that even though the Otomo family suffered a disastrous defeat to the Luo family last year, with the strength of the Otomo family at this time, there was absolutely no problem in ensuring the safety of their home base, Bungo.Moreover, after the first battle last year, the Luo family must have consumed a lot of supplies. It is questionable how long the Luo family can last this invasion.So they were very calm. Apart from continuing to send people to pay attention to the farce between Luo's family and Dayou's family, they just waited there and waited for a good show.

It's just that as the Luo's family continued to attack the city in Bungo, the surrounding tyrants finally couldn't sit still.From this, it seems that Dayou's family may be wiped out.So, everyone finally made a move.

The first to move was the Ouchi family.After Ouchi Yoshitaka, the son-in-law of the Otomo family, disappeared in his own territory, Ouchi Yoshitaka quickly sent two groups of envoys. The pressure forced the Luo family to stop invading Otomo's house.

The envoy sent by the Ouchi family to the Luo family this time is no longer Masaragi's cheap father-in-law Sagara Takeshi (the last time he went to the Luo family to negotiate a peace, although the goal of the peace was finally achieved, it also paid the price of tens of thousands of people , this was seen by the retainers of the Ouchi family as an act of submission to the Luo family, and Sagara Taketoshi, who had suffered a lot of criticism, simply pretended to be sick at home), but it was the Chengjing Fangtong of the local rich family of the Buzen Kingdom, a gradual 60 year old guy.

This old guy is also a shrewd guy. After being assigned this mission, he also knew that he would not be welcomed by the members of the Luo family, so he simply thought that he was old and not suitable for traveling quickly. Therefore, leisurely and leisurely, he hurried to the Luo family's main city, Kishitake Mountain Castle. After learning that Masara had personally led the army to Bungo Kingdom, he slowly followed in Masara's footsteps, guiding He had only arrived at Hinoki Castle at the junction of Bungo Kingdom and Chikugo Kingdom two days ago, and was rushing to Masara's location with Kinoshita Masunao's army at this time.

Zheng Liang was also very clear about the plans of the Ouchi family. On the one hand, he sent people into the Ouchi family to encourage everyone in the Ouchi family to resist the Luo family, and on the other hand, he hoped to force the Luo family to compromise.And when the food reserves in the territory were about to bottom out, it was indeed inappropriate for the Luo family to have another conflict with the Da Nei family at this time.Of course, it is estimated that Ouchijiayi has the same idea.That's why Ouchi Yoshitaka sent envoys to mediate.So Zheng Liang decided to use the dragging formula, not to mention that Cheng Jing Fangtong is so knowledgeable about current affairs, Zheng Liang believes that the two will have a good chance to cooperate after the meeting.

Of course, the Ouchi family will definitely not just send envoys to mediate and settle the matter. In fact, according to the surveillance of the intelligence cabinet during this period, it was discovered that some of the Ouchi family's spies had sneaked into the territory of the Luo family in the western part of Chikuzen, and began to appear frequently. active.Zheng Liang already smelled a strong smell of conspiracy.So he immediately ordered Akabane Shinnosuke and Yoshida Shigemasa who were stationed there to pay close attention to the local movement, and to attack decisively if there was any trouble. [

In addition, in addition to the actions of the Ouchi family, the Ito family, a traditional ally to the south of the Ouchi family, also issued a denunciation order against the Luo family at this time, demanding that the Luo family stop their aggression against Bungo, and has already begun to gather troops and prepare to go out. In Haibu County, Bungo Country, it supports the army of the Saeki family who is confronting the army of the Luo family there.

In order to reduce unnecessary troubles, the Luo family must step up their pace of attacking the Bungo country.
