Warring States Eagle

Regarding Mao Liyuan's calculations in his mind, Zheng Liang is not a roundworm in his stomach, so naturally he doesn't know.As for Tao Longfang's envoy this time, although he proposed to negotiate peace with the Luo family and get Ouchi Yoshinaga as a puppet, one of the conditions in his letter moved the government's conscience, so he finally agreed to Tao. Long Fang, after fulfilling the conditions in the letter, he will negotiate a peace with the Tao family and send Ouchi Yoshinaga.

Tao Longfang was also very sincere about negotiating peace with the Luo family. Not long after Jiang Liang Rongfang returned, the Naito family really stopped the increase of troops in Katsuo Castle in the southern part of Nagato Country.Although there was still no reduction in the troops here, it temporarily prevented the Luo family from falling into a situation where they were fighting fiercely in Buzen and Nagato.

While receiving good news, there is also bad news.The first bad news is that Sugi Shigemo, who was defeated by the Luo family just a few days ago, returned to Songshan City, his home city. Regardless of the complaints of the people, he is mobilizing his own army in an attempt to carry out a cage war in Songshan City. Matsuyama Castle stopped the Luo family from invading Buzen.

In addition, the cause of the fire in Yuxu Mountain was also found out.

The fire on Mt. Oxus did indeed originate in the central region at the junction of Buzen and Chikuzen.What shocked the Luo family even more was that, the day before the forest fire broke out, Akizuki Wenzhong and Aso Takami just led their respective family officials and main troops with a total of more than 1000 people into Yuxu Mountain.

At first, Zhengliang didn't quite believe the news, but after the news from the detectives from Qiuyue's family and Aso's family arrived one after another, Zhengliang was finally convinced.

"My lord, the forest fire in Yuxu Mountain has been going on for several days. Look at the intensity of the fire. Unless there will be a heavy rain recently. Otherwise, it will be difficult to stop in a short time. And if the members of the Qiuyue family and the Aso family are real It is in the mountains at this time, so with the current fire intensity, I am afraid that it is more ominous." Kansuke Yamamoto said immediately.

As Kansuke Yamamoto said, that night, Sugi Shigesuke and others secretly ignited a fire around the camp of Akizuki’s and Aso’s families. The seeds spread rapidly.Not only Qiuyue's family, Aso's family and others were besieged by the fire, but Sugi Shigesuke and others who set the fire were also besieged by the fire in the forest.

Look at it from a modern point of view.Sugi Shigesuke is a typical rich second generation.How could he, who seldom worked at home, expect that a seemingly perfect plan to set fire to the enemy would eventually turn into a forest fire that spread to the entire Yuxu Mountain?

The sky is full of mountain fires shrouded in the sky, not only in the territories of Buzen and Chikuzen countries, the raging mountain fires can be seen, but also in the faraway places of Sufang, Hibiki, and the Seto Inland Sea, and even Shufang and Changzhou. The thick smoke column over Yuxu Mountain can be seen in Menguo and other places.

The Qiuyue family, the Aso family, and the Sugi family, who lacked the knowledge of escaping from the fire, were either burned to death by the fire or suffocated to death by the thick smoke.In the end, led by Qiuyue Wenzhong and Aso Takami, the two coalition forces of dozens of retainers and thousands of soldiers were buried in the sea of ​​flames in Yuxu Mountain.All buried with them.There are also more than a hundred members of the Sugi family, including the instigator of the fire, Sugi Shigesuke.

Not long after the governor and all his retainers entered Yuxu Mountain, a fire broke out all over the sky.Immediately, Qiuyue's family and Aso's family fell into chaos.At this time, the sons of the two families, Qiuyue Harumo, the son of the Qiuyue family, were only a few years old, and Takami Aso's son was even less than two years old.What is even more serious is that at this time, the heirs of the two family governors are still in the territory of the Luo family as hostages for this tripartite alliance.Under such circumstances, it naturally caused great confusion.

"My lord, if the governors of the Qiuyue family and the Aso family are really buried in the flames this time, it is a good time for the family to control these two families!" said another military adviser, Kakukuma Ishimune.

"Yes, my lord! This time, in addition to the two family governors, the two families also lost a large number of retainers and elite soldiers in the family. It is indeed the best time for the family to settle in these two families." Kansuke Yamamoto also said.

"Oh? What suggestions do the two military advisers have?" After being told by Kansuke Yamamoto and Ishimune Kakukuma, Masara really took the opportunity to annex the Akizuki family and the Aso family.

"The main family can enter the two families under the banner of allies, and then help the two sons who are being held hostage by the main family to succeed the family governors, and then take over the management authority of the two families under the pretext that the two family governors are still young. Slowly cut off the strength of the two, and finally control the two." Kakukuma Ishimune said immediately.

"Master Shi Zong's plan is good, but it is only a slow one. I think that, given the current situation our family is facing, if we use this strategy to deal with it, I am afraid that conflicts with some powerful retainers of the two families will break out several times during the period. Your servant Here is a quick plan to cut through the mess, but I don't know if the lord is willing to listen." Yamamoto Kansuke said.

"Oh? Don't say anything!" Zheng Liang said immediately.

"As for the Aso family, the lord may take Shina Aso, who is a guest of the family at this time, as a concubine, and then directly enter the Aso family in the name of his in-laws, assist Nozomi Aso's young nephew to succeed the family governor, and then quickly take control of the Aso family."

"Then what about Qiuyue's family?"

"Have you forgotten, my lord? Akizuki Wenzhong's second son and his mother are currently settling in Kamiya's house. Lord Kamiya is also visiting at Akizuki's house. In the name of Kamiya-sama, the family can recommend Akizuki Wenzhong's second son to inherit Qiuyue The position of the governor of every family, and then the family will take the opportunity to directly control the Qiuyue family."

"That's right, since most of the retainers of the two families and the elite fighters in the army were killed in the sea of ​​fire this time, our family happened to control the two families by means of force and oppression." Ishimune Kakukuma also agreed at this time.

"However, in order to prevent the Sugi family in the southeast and the Naito family in the Nagato country in the north from dragging our family back after learning of the changes in the Chikuzen country, our family should also take precautions." At this time, Kansuke Yamamoto reminded .

"This matter is not difficult, my lord, I am willing to rush to the city of Nagasaki in the Nagato country, and defend the Naito family together with the executive species and adults. As for the defense of Buzen, I suggest that the master should be in charge of Shigemasa Yoshida. There is Shigemasa Yoshida Nagano Castle and Omiyake Castle stationed in the former Nagano family, even if Sugi Shigemo comes again, there is no need to worry. In addition, in order to increase the chaos in Buzen, Nagato and other places, the family should send a large number of detectives into these two places A large number of rumors such as the Naito family and the Sugi family are accomplices of Tao Longfang's rebellion, and even black eagles can be sent into these areas to pretend to be bandits, and the navy is to enter the coast of these two places to play pirates, increasing the popularity of these areas. The chaos left these two families with no time to care about each other." Kakukuma Ishimune said immediately.

"As for Kokura Castle and Moji Castle, please send the bus to the minister. The minister promises to ensure the stability of these two places and the connection with the rest of Nagato and Buzen Kingdom." Kansuke Yamamoto also said at this time, "As for the master, He personally led the army back to Chikuzen and took down the Qiuyue family and the Aso family in one fell swoop."

"Okay, if that's the case, I'll leave it to the two military advisors." Masara finally agreed with Kansuke Yamamoto's quick strategy and Ishimune Kakukuma's suggestion about defending Nagato and Buzen.
