"Reconciliation?"

On the Fukune of the Ming Dynasty in the sea outside Iki Island, Zheng Liang, who was preparing for a fierce battle with the combined naval forces of the Ouchi family, the Hatata family, and the Zong family family, received a peace proposal from the other party.

Zheng Liang originally wanted to reject the other party's suggestion, but after thinking about it, he had to think again.Obviously, the other party has chosen to negotiate a peace now, but it is only because a huge lucky boat suddenly appeared in the Luo family's navy camp at this time.The opponent also didn't want to fight to the death with the Luo's family's navy, which would cause greater losses.

If the other party is rejected, what will happen?First of all, it is very likely that the two sides will start a big battle.But if this is the case, can the navy of the Luo family really defeat the opponent?At this time, the Luo family's navy had a total of more than 180 ships and a Ming Guofu ship that had just come to support.The opponent has more than 300 ships and nearly [-] ships.

In terms of military strength, the other party's situation is temporarily unknown, and the Luo family's military strength is not very large because they left some farmers and soldiers to guard the Gumi City that was captured just this morning before leaving.And due to the series of pursuits in the afternoon, many soldiers were exhausted.And the naval forces of the other party's big family and clan are all teachers who use work instead of rest.

The most frustrating thing is that the powerful weapons iron cannon and baked jade that they rely on most are greatly reduced in power in such weather. If they really fight, it will really only be a side-to-side battle.And the boarding battle is precisely the physical strength of the soldiers.Now the morale of the soldiers of the Luo family is soared because of Zhengliang's previous actions and Fuchuan's sudden joining, but once they form a protracted battle on the water with the opponent.Then the physical disadvantage of the Roche family will be revealed.at the same time.The newly joined Fuchuan does not have a big tube.Therefore, when fighting, the attack method relies more on the impact of the opposite.It's just that if there are too many collisions, the Fuchuan itself will be damaged.Zheng Liang didn't want to lose such a huge support ship so soon (even if it wasn't the Luo family's).

And the most disturbing thing is that no matter whether this battle is won or not, the loss of the Luo family's navy will be quite serious in the end.The Luo family's standing water army will also suffer a lot of damage in this battle.

One disadvantage of the elite soldier policy is that once the elite soldiers lose too much, it is difficult to replenish them in a short time.Then this means that the Luo family will have to rely on crowd tactics to ensure the combat power of the navy for a long period of time.This was very costly to the Roche family.And in the real-time battlefield, if the elite soldiers are too damaged.And if the general peasants and soldiers are not replenished in time (at present, due to the distance from the land, this is exactly the situation), then the entire army may be defeated.

After much deliberation, in the end Masaragi decided to negotiate a peace with the Ouchi family, the Tsushima clan, and Iki Island's Hata, to see what benefits the Luo family could get.Of course, in the process of preparing for peace negotiations, Masaragi had secretly sent a ship back to the coast of Hizen to call for reinforcements, and was ready to come to support at any time.It is estimated that several companies on the opposite side have also done the same.

After the four parties reached a preliminary intention to negotiate a peace, the two sides agreed to jointly retreat five miles by sea, and then each send a representative and a few soldiers as escorts to drive a small morning to the whale-like island near the battlefield ( Later generations were named Whale Island) and a peace negotiation was launched on the shore.

The peace representative sent by the Luo family this time is Liu Le.The other three parties saw that the representative of the Luo family turned out to be from the Ming Dynasty.They couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, but then they were relieved.Anyway, the house governor of the Luo family is famous for often doing some strange and astonishing behaviors.So there is nothing surprising about them.Immediately, everyone placed a ship on a seashore on the island in advance, and no one started a heated argument in the cabin of the closed ship above. During this period, the information was sent back to their respective captains through their respective escort ships from time to time. , and then wait for the decision of their own general.Finally, a peace agreement was reached in the evening.

According to the decision of Yihe, the Luo family, the Ouchi family, the Hatata family, and the Zong family must ensure the smoothness of the sea trade routes near Iki Island and Tsushima Island, and must not carry out any commercial blockade.As a concession to the Luo family, the Ouchi family also guaranteed the unimpeded maritime trade routes of the Guanmen Strait in the territorial waters of the Ouchi family (anyway, the Ouchi family will not block the strait at the expense of their own interests, and now it is only on the surface. It's just a small concession from the Luo family, in the eyes of the Ouchi family, it's a bit of a charity).

The naval forces of each party are not allowed to enter the waters within ten miles of the coast of each party's territory, otherwise it will be deemed to automatically tear up the agreement, and will be subject to a comprehensive counterattack by the other party, and other parties must not intervene in the camps of the two conflicting parties.

Maintain the current situation on Iki Island, and all forces are not allowed to enter Iki Island. (That is to say, at present on Iki Island, Ishida County facing the Hizen Country of the Luo Family and the Chikuzen Country is controlled by the Hidaka Family belonging to the Luo Family, while the side facing Tsushima Island, the territory of the Chikuzen Country of the Ouchi Family, and the Kanmon Strait Iki County was controlled by Hatata. This treaty guaranteed the territory of Ishida County newly occupied by the Luo family, and also protected the Hidaka family, which was obviously weaker than Hatata. From now on, this part of the territory on Iki Island will be temporarily handed over to The Hidaka family will take care of it, and the Luo family only needs to send some officials in.)

Bo Duo exchanged the family of Maid Taijiu Ling for some of the Bo Duo family who were captured in Gumi City today.Rescuing Ju Zi's family was the condition promised by Zheng Liang when he persuaded Ju Zi to cooperate with the Luo family's espionage plan. Zheng Liang would not deceive a little girl, so he took the opportunity to propose it.As for the other party's request to exchange the same number of captives, Zheng Liang also agreed. Anyway, after releasing these people back, it will only increase the number of food-consuming population of the other party.

In addition to the peace agreement reached by the four parties, Mao Liyuan also took the opportunity to individually propose to the Luo family about the peace negotiation between the Ouchi family and the Luo family.The decision to seek peace with the Luo family was made a long time ago, under the strong persuasion of Sagara Taketo and Mori Motozuru, Ouchi Yoshitaka made the decision.Of course, according to the original plan, after defeating the Luo family's navy attacking Iki Island in July, the Ouchi family took the opportunity to force the Luo family to fight again.

On the surface, the purpose of negotiating peace with the Luo family was to prevent the Ouchi family from falling into the predicament of fighting the Nizi family and the Luo family at the same time. In the dark, Mao Liyuan was to help the Ouchi family get out of the entanglement of the Luo family, so as to make a contribution to the Maori family. provide more support.Of course, the current situation is different from what was originally planned. At least now the Ouchi family's water army has not defeated the Luo's family's water army. Major damage, so an impromptu negotiation was made.However, it would not be a bad thing if they could take the opportunity to reach a new peace agreement with the Luo family alone.

Naturally, Zheng Liang didn't take much notice of Mao Liyuan's peace proposal.After all, just last year, the Ouchi family just tore up the peace agreement signed with the Luo family, and secretly attacked the Hakata port of the Luo family (Of course, if Masara was replaced by Ouchi Yoshitaka at that time, he would also make a tearing up agreement to seize the opportunity to attack Roche's decision).

After calming down, he suddenly remembered the information about the internal situation of the Ouchi family that Kansuke Yamamoto had reported to him before.Judging from the information, there seems to be some discord within the Ouchi family.Immediately, Zhengliang thought of the civil unrest in the Ouchi family in history.If the civil strife still happens, then the Luo family really shouldn't put too much pressure on the Ouchi family at this time. This will only temporarily unite the already cracked retainers of the Ouchi family to fight against the Luo family. , instead of relaxing the external pressure on them, wouldn't it be better to let them collapse from the inside?At that time, as long as the Luo family makes preparations in advance, they will find a lot of bargains.Thinking of this, Zheng Liang finally agreed to negotiate peace with the Ouchi family.
