Warring States Eagle

At the end of November in the first year of Hongzhi.

Over the past period of time, the various armies of the Luo family have made a lot of progress in the Raiders of the four countries of Nagato, Zhoufang, and Anyi, as well as their surrounding areas.

In terms of naval forces, with the continuous sweeping of the three-way naval forces in various places, the Seto Inland Sea, Anyun Beach, Zhoufang Beach, and Yiyu Beach between Kyushu Island, Honshu Island, and the Shikoku region have completely become Luo's family navy. Exclusive control over the inland sea.

With the end of the war in this water area, the Luo family's navy also released the blockade of this sea area, and a large number of merchant ships that had stopped due to the previous war, as well as some powerful and famous spy ships from all over the world, also quickly poured into this area.Zheng Liang had no choice but to open up the sea ban. After all, the Seto Inland Sea was the most important maritime trade route in Japan. If it was blocked for a long time, it would not only affect the Luo family's own business income and the collection of tolls, but also be blocked. Offended many business forces, so after weighing the pros and cons, Zheng Liang finally issued an order to lift the ban.As for the leak of the situation of the Itsukushima World War I, anyway, with the Luo family attacking everywhere in the Seto Inland Sea, the West Country and Sanyo Road, the surrounding powerful and famous people will know the result as long as they infer. It has already been attacked, so there is no need to hide it at this time.

After mastering the water trade route of the Seto Inland Sea, the Luo family's navy, while protecting the local waters, also sent people to the four countries of Zhoufang, Nagato, Agi, and Bingo. Along the coast, we assisted various land armies to continue their offensives, and at the same time began to infiltrate into the Suitan sea area that was also contaminated by the Tanlu navy of Miyoshi's family.

As for the naval forces, they had already defeated the main force of the local naval forces in the First Battle of Itsukushima, so they made great progress in the attack during these days.compare.The various armies on land are not so easy.

After the first army of Aguda raided Guishan City in Dajin County of Changmen Country.At this time, it was still surrounding Zhiyue City in Awu County of Nagato Country controlled by the Yoshimi family.As for Duchuan City in Awu County, it is still under the control of the Ouchi family at this time.This led to Zheng Liang's original plan to quickly take down the three cities of Kameyama Castle, Zhiyue Castle, and Duchuan Castle, thereby blocking the Yoshimi family located on the border between Nagato Country Abu County and Iwami Country. The country's strategy of going deeper into the region ended in failure.

Fortunately, when the army of the Luo family surrounded Zhiyue City, the governor of the Yoshimi family, Yoshimi Masahiro, happened to be in the city. Because the governor was besieged in the city, this caused the Yoshimi family to fall into a leaderless state. Indirectly achieved the goal of preventing the Yoshimi family from influencing the Luo family's strategy on Nagato and Zhou Fang.

Now that the situation in Zhiyue City has turned into this, Zheng Liang simply ordered the first army led by Aguda to adopt the strategy of besieging and attacking reinforcements.Try to contain the Yoshimi family.In order to better achieve this goal, Zheng Liang also sent envoys to the Masuda family, the neighbor of the Yoshimi family, in an attempt to encourage the Masuda family to go out and attack the Yoshimi family back and forth with the Luo family.

On the side of the second army led by Oishi Tomohisa, Isano Yuanmasa, and Takasaka Masanobu.Since the army along the way was supported by cavalry, and they cleverly played the name of Ouchi Yoshitaka, the progress of the strategy was good.

From the beginning of the strategy, they divided their troops into two groups and marched eastward along the Zhoufang Beach on the south coast of Nagato Kingdom. Along the way, they took the Neijun City, Yingzhishan Castle and other strongholds, and directly captured Nagato The southern region of the country, and then quickly entered the southern region of Zhoufang country through the border area of ​​the southern region.However, here they encountered fierce resistance from Youtianyue Castle, which was garrisoned by Ouchi family Uda Takamori, and they were still fighting fiercely at this time.Just take the city.The Yamaguchi area, the center of the Ouchi family's rule, was exposed to the front of the Luo family's army.

The other army chose to launch an attack from Yata City, which was controlled by the Luo family in the northwestern part of the Nagato country. The first army can concentrate on dealing with the Yoshimi family), and then quickly conquered Okabe Castle in the central area of ​​Nagato country, but when continuing to launch the attack on the central area of ​​Nagato country, they were encountered by each The Nagato Sugi family and Naito family survivors guarded Shinda Maru Castle and Panlong Castle resisted fiercely, and their pace couldn't help but stop.

Similarly, as long as the central part of the Nagato country is completely captured, the entire Nagato country, except for a part of the northern border area controlled by the Yoshimi family at this time, the rest of the area will all fall into the pocket of the Luo family. .Moreover, from the central area of ​​the Nagato country, one can also quickly enter the Yamaguchi area, the center of the Ouchi family's rule.

On the side of Anyi Kingdom, the third army completely occupied the western, southern, and central regions of Anyi Kingdom. Under the leadership of the general Masao Kinoshita, they began to attack the northern areas of Yamagata County and Yoshida County, which were still occupied by Maori. .However, in order to prevent the sneak attack of the Nizi family in the Izumo country in the north, Mori Moto deployed a lot of soldiers and horses in these two counties before going to Itsukushima, and the Mori family has built a large number of troops in these two places over the years. Many satellite cities defending the center of Yoshida County, the center of its rule.At this critical time, these arrangements finally showed their defensive value, which led to the slow progress of Kinoshita's army's strategy.

In order to find a breakthrough, Masao Kinoshita later focused his attack on the Shanxian County.Because that is not only the base camp of the Yoshikawa family in the Maori family's two-river system, but also has a rich silver mine in the area. It will be destroyed by the Luo family.

What Masao Kinoshita didn't expect was that the Mori family seemed to have sensed his intentions, and even set up a trap in Shanxian County in an attempt to let Masao Kinoshita's army get in.Fortunately, Kinoshita Masao was careful, and after noticing something was wrong, he led the army back to the border of Gaogong County, which is adjacent to Shanxian County and Yoshida County, in advance, avoiding a fiasco.If Kinoshita Masunao's army was wiped out, then the western, central and even southern regions of Anyi Kingdom would fall into the hands of the Mori family again in an instant.Then the previous efforts of the Luo family were in vain.

After learning about this situation, Masaragi had a premonition that Morimoto should have returned to the Mori family's territory at this time. For the sake of safety and to ensure the results obtained in Anyi Country at this time, Masaragi ordered Kinoshita Masunao's army to be only responsible for the time being. It is enough to carry out harassment warfare at the border between Shanxian County and Yoshida County, and there is no need to continue to go deep into these two counties.
