Warring States Eagle

In the battle at the foot of Mount Huomi in Toura County, Nagato Country, under the pincer attack of the Luo family's army rushing out of the forest and the Luo family's cavalry blocking the retreat, the Naito family's army was defeated.

Naito Takashi and Katsumata Morinaga died in battle, and many of their retainers and relatives and samurai were killed. Even the others who did not die in battle could not escape due to terrain restrictions, and all became prisoners of the Luo family.

After a short rest, after hearing the news that the defenders of Misaki Castle came to receive the prisoners of this battle, Kakukuma Ishimune immediately led the army to the city of Katsuyama Castle, the important town of Naito's family in Toyoura County, overnight.And that night, with the secret help of Esaku who was lurking in Naito's house in Tao Longfang in the city, he opened the gate of Shengshan Castle at night and took Shengshan Castle in one fell swoop.Since then, the Naito family's plains in the southern part of Toura County have all fallen into the hands of the Luo family.

At the beginning of October in the 21st year of Tianwen, when the Luo family formed an army in Katsuyama City and was preparing to continue to invade other areas in Toyoura County of Nagato Country, shocking news came from the Naito family's home city, Arataki City.Naito Takaharu, the most hopeful to inherit the position of family governor after Naito Takashi's death, was killed by the retainers because of conflicts with the retainers when he was about to fight against the invasion of the Luo family.The Naito family fell into chaos in an instant.

So Tao Longfang, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately entered the territory of the Naito family under the banner of assisting the Naito family in fighting the invasion of the Luo family, and secretly began to take over the territory of the Naito family.And some of the retainers of the Naito family, seeing the decline of the main family, took the initiative to throw themselves into the arms of Tao Longfang.

The Naito family fell into chaos, while Tao Longfang was busy receiving the power of the Naito family, the Luo family army led by Kakukuma Ishimune also continued to march.It only took a few days.Qieshan Castle, which is located at the mouth of the Kiyagawa River, along the coast of Zhoufangtan in Nagato State, and at the junction of Toyoura County and Asa County, was captured.

But after the capture of Qieshan City.The Luo family's army did not take the opportunity to enter the territory of the thick and narrow county. Instead, after leaving some guards to guard the mountain city, they turned to go north along the bank of the Muwu River, bringing the territory along the way into the territory of the Luo family.Until I came to Yata Castle, another important town in Toyoura County.

Yatian City was originally the territory of the Qingjinglongzhu clan, but was later captured by the menacing Tao Longfang, and the Qingjinglongzhu clan, who was short of major generals, was put under house arrest in a nearby territory.This time, they immediately launched a riot in the territory after receiving instructions from the letter sent by Qing Jinglong in advance.The Tao family defenders of Yada City took this opportunity as an excuse to give up the city.Back to the border of nearby Mine County.

At the same time, Tao Longfang also took this opportunity to return the Qingjinglong family to the Luo family, fulfilling the content of the alliance agreement.These clansmen written by Takashi Qingjing will be sent to Chikugo country to settle in a unified way in the near future.Although these clansmen were a bit reluctant to part with these territories, at least since then they could stay away from the Tao family's sphere of influence, which could threaten their clan, and live a stable life, so their resistance was not high.As for the family of Taketoshi Sagara mentioned in the alliance agreement, after the war, these people were exchanged to the Luo family under the pretext of exchanging prisoners of war.

After taking Yata Castle.After leaving some soldiers in the Luo family's army to guard the place, they immediately entered the local mountain road.Shuttle among the dense forests of the local area, and successfully captured the Marugi Mountain Castle on the shore of Yugu Bay, which had been empty in early November.Since then, the entire Toyopo County of Nagato State has fallen into the hands of the Luo family.

At this time, the Tao family's army in Neijun City, which is also located on the border between Fengpu County and Housa County and controlled by the Tao family, finally took action.They set out from the inner county city on the side of thick and narrow county, and began to march towards Qishan city on the side of Fengpu county, in an attempt to recapture Qishan city.Uemura Motozuna and Roshi Shingoro, who were in charge of staying here, immediately went out to meet them, and "fierce battle" broke out at the border on the side of Asa County.

A few days later, the Luo family's army was defeated and retreated to Qieshan City, and the Tao family's army also retreated to the inner county city.The two armies then confronted each other at the border.

This battle is actually the final battle of the strategy between the Luo family and the Tao family, the Nagato country.The so-called fierce battle is just a good show for other tyrants to watch. The purpose is to prevent people from seeing that the actions of the two families against the Naito family this time are in collusion.In this "fierce battle", not only did no one die in battle, even the wounded on both sides were only wounded by bombing.

After the first battle of the Naito family, the Nagato guardian generation who helped the Ouchi family to manage the Nagato country for several generations basically announced their withdrawal from the stage of history.Naturally, Tao Longfang was the one who benefited the most this time.On the surface, although compared with the same period in history, he lost the county of Toyopo County in Nagato Country.However, the Tao family gradually annexed the other territories of the Naito family and the affiliated Naito family in the four counties of Asa, Toyoura, Mine, Otsu, and Awu into the direct territory of the Tao family.In terms of its true strength, the Tao family at this time is even stronger than just controlling the Nagato country in name (in history, the Naito family needs to control the Nagato country).

For such a result, Zheng Liang is also happy to see it.After all, the Luo family needs Tao Longfang to act as a forward against the Maori family, the Yoshimi family and even the Nizi family.In addition, this time with the help of the Tao family, the Luo family also easily obtained another county, so why not do it?

In December, when the Luo family was busy taking over the newly-occupied Nagato territory and began to resettle the thousands of Zhoufang and Nagato famine refugees who had been "driven" by the Tao family, the government officials stationed in Kyoto carried out Good news came from Yiichi Shenglong. After receiving the instruction of Masahiro, after some operations by Yiichi Shenglong, the newly appointed shogun Ashikaga Yoshito (later renamed Ashikaga Yoshiki) officially appointed Masara as the guardian of Chikuzen and Toyoto. front guardian.

With the death of Ouchi Yoshitaka, some of Ouchi Yoshitaka's official positions were naturally taken back by the shogunate and the court.Although Tao Longfang also sent people to try to regain these official positions in the name of the Da Nei family before, but they were blocked by the power of the Nizi family in the imperial court.On the contrary, it was taken advantage of by the Luo family.

Ashikaga Yoshiki's appointment of Zheng Liang is also a kind of wooing move.Since the beginning of this year, after the mediation of Rokkaku Sadayori and Yoshiken's father and son, the shogun Ashikaga Yoshiki and Miyoshi Changqing who defeated Hosokawa Harumoto and took control of the Kyoto area reached a peace agreement.As a result, Hosokawa Harumoto became a monk and fled to Wakasa, Ashikaga Yoshiki was able to return to Kyoto from Katada, and officially lived the life of a shogun.
