The main guard areas are Tachibana Bay, Amakusa Beach, and Yatsushiro Sea. Merchant ships in the sea area charge certain tolls and guarantee the safety of these ships.

This time Zhengliang plans to change the station of the team to Qibu City, Haicheng (the city is located in an island in the Bungo Waterway) and Lishan Castle in the Bungo Kingdom of Kyushu. The sea area under the jurisdiction of the team includes Feng Housuido, Tsukumi Bay, Usu Bay, Uwajima Bay, Beppu Bay, Subo Bay, Kanmon Strait.Among them, Usu Bay, Beppu Bay, Shubo Bay, and Kanmon Strait are already the inland waters of the Luo family.

The navy team.

This time, Zhengliang plans to change the location of the squad to the former Murakami family's Hakata Castle, Hakata Castle, Nagasaki Castle, and Wagasaki Castle in the Seto Inland Sea area. The sea areas under the jurisdiction of the squad are Anyun Beach, Seto Inland Sea, Jitan, Yiyutan, and Suitan are mainly responsible for guarding against the maritime forces of the four countries and Honshu Island. They need to support the various teams of the Luo family located in Yiyu and Anyi. Merchant ships charge certain tolls.And to ensure the safety of these ships.After the team moved from its original location, Tsurumaki Castle in Beppu Bay, where it was originally stationed, would be demolished by the slave team of the Luo family.

In terms of cavalry squadrons.The leader of the First Standing Cavalry Division is Masahiro Isano, the deputy commanders are Mitsukiyoshi Akana and Nakamoto Tanio, and the military commander is Kenkan Hyakutake.The team was originally stationed at Yanagawa Castle in Chikugo, in order to support Hizen, Higo, Chikuzen, and Bungo at any time.But this time the garrison was changed to the Nodakayama Ranch of the Matsuura Army of the Hizen Kingdom, in order to support the nearby Nodakayama, Kishizan Castle, and Xuefu Castle at any time, as well as to ensure the safety of the nearby coastal areas.At present, due to the fact that the areas occupied by Zhou Fanguo, Nagato Country, An Yiguo and other Luo family have not been completely stabilized, the temporary station of the team is Zhou Fangguo's Yamaguchi Castle, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

The Second Standing Cavalry Squad is headed by Kosaka Masanobu, vice-commanders Jiang Liangxianxuan and Yamazaki Kanjieyu, and Junmufu is Kamiya Zongzhan. The original station of this squadron is Qibu Castle (that is, Funaikan) and is in charge of the entire Bungo area. The daily security of the Luo family's territory is ready to support the Sixth Standing Battalion on the border of Bungo Country at any time, and at the same time assist the Cabinet to implement the laws of the family.But this time, the station of the team will be relocated to Yufuyue Ranch near Qibu City. The team is mainly responsible for the safety of coastal areas such as Bungo and Bungzen countries, and is ready to deal with sudden incidents at any time.Like the First Standing Cavalry Squad, since the areas occupied by Zhou Fangguo, Nagato Country, An Yiguo and other Luo family have not been completely stabilized, the temporary station of this squadron is also Zhou Fangguo's Yamaguchi Castle, ready to deal with sudden surprises at any time. event.

In terms of the two Iron Cannon Squads, the first Iron Cannon Squad is based in Xuefu City in the Hizen Kingdom of Kyushu, and is responsible for the safety and protection of Xuefu City; Guarding the safety of Kishidake Mountain Castle and nearby workshops.Similarly, the newly established Datong Fan team is based in the workshop valley near Anyue Mountain City.It is convenient for the daily training of the Datong Fan team.

As for the last samurai squadrons, cloaks, scouts, messengers, black eagles and other squadrons, they have always followed Zhengliang as his bodyguard.The reason why Zhengliang is like this.The main reason is that I don't want to repeat the mistakes of Oda Nobunaga, who only brought a few guards, but was betrayed by his subordinates.As for the special red ghost princess team in the territory, it is the jurisdictional team of the eldest daughter Miki, responsible for the daily protection of Miki and Zheng Liang's wives.The more than [-] reserve peasants and soldiers are scattered to various fan teams, Zhengliang's residence, foreign trade ports, recruit training camps and other places according to needs, and are responsible for assisting each fan team in guarding the territory.

In the Ohiro room of Yamaguchi Castle.After Zhengliang and the retainers finalized the military expansion plan and the new military deployment of each division, the retainers immediately went down to start preparations.After all, the scale of the military expansion this time is not small.And it also involves the new military of each division. After these retainers go down, they have to make preparations in terms of logistics materials, personnel transfer, and army handover, according to Zheng Liang.To complete the military expansion and military deployment this time, at least it will not be completed until early next year.

Just when Zhengliang was making drastic military changes, a conspiracy against the Luo family began to take shape in the far away area of ​​Gyeonggi.

Big version, surrounded by rivers on all sides.The Kamo River, Shirakawa River, Katsura River, Yodo River, and Uji River in the north converge here to form a large river, and the Domyoji River and Yamato River in the southeast also flow into it continuously.All kinds of boats, big and small, sailed in and out of the river, and there were even boats from the Ming Dynasty, Nanban and Koryo Korea.

This place was called Namba Tsu in ancient times.About a few decades ago, the eighth holy monk of Honganji Temple, Master Lianru, was in this place where ships frequently come and go.A dojo dedicated to cultivation was opened up, Ishiyama Mido (Honganji Temple), and no one would think that this is the city of warriors.At first it was called Namba, but then people who gathered here began to call it Osaka Gobo (also known as Ishiyama Gobo), and slowly. "Osaka" has become the place name of this place.

At this time, in the middle of the Mido Hall of Ishiyama Gobo, there is a square courtyard, which is the territory of the temple, about the size of Hachicho.This courtyard is equivalent to a city wall and an archery tower, while the surrounding natural rivers become a moat.In fact, it is the place to rush.

"Isn't this a magnificent city?"

"Yes, here. The Buddha will bless us. If we hide inside, let alone the lord, even the army will have nothing to do with us."

"Namo Amitabha Buddha... As long as you recite the Buddha's name with all your heart, even the most evil people can get the salvation and protection of the Buddha. Why do you doubt whether there is rebirth in the Pure Land? It's better to concentrate on the Buddha. This is the teaching of the patriarch."

"Thanks to Patriarch, Namo Amitabha."

"Namo Amitabha……"

There is an endless stream of pilgrims who come to worship, all of them chanting the Buddha's name.The current master of Mido is Lianru's grandson, Zhengru.He lives in this fortified Mido.If orders are issued here, it is almost a country within a country.

In the shade of the corridor, stood a man who looked like a samurai.He wears a bamboo hat to block the scorching sun, and his eyes keep looking at the worshiping crowd from under the hat.His clothes were dusty and discolored, and the paint on his scabbard was peeling off.Probably because he traveled a long distance to come here, his straw sandals are already in tatters.

His shoulders are broad, but his waist is very thin.He held the brim of the bamboo hat with one hand, and walked from one corner of the Mido to another. After looking around for a while, he stood there, looking at the crowd who came to worship without blinking.This person is none other than Matsuyoshi Kuchiha, an important minister of the Mori family.

As early as a few months ago, Kouwa Toshiyoshi came to Osaka in accordance with the orders of the governor of the Mori family, and joined the retainers of the Mori family who had been here before.His purpose this time is very simple. It is to persuade the presiding officer of Honganji Temple at this time, Honganji Temple, to send people to Aki, Zhoufang, Bingo, etc. Deal with the Roche family.

In fact, as the first group of Maori retainers who arrived in Osaka, they have visited Honganji Temple many times and sent a lot of money and food, but Honganji Temple has not expressed its position.What's more serious is that I don't know if someone in the Honganji Temple deliberately leaked the reason. Shenglong Yiyi, who is representing the Luo family in Kyoto, also came here. He also used money to bribe him to see the Honganji Temple several times. .As a result, Honganji Zhengru will not express his position even more.

It was under such circumstances that Michiyoshi Kuchiha came to Osaka.Seeing that Honganji Zhengru has not made a statement for a long time, and the news from Xiguo has learned that the Luo family has basically controlled the former Ouchi family's territory, and there is a plan to deal with the Mori family with all their strength, Kouha Tsutsuyoshi is naturally anxious He couldn't stop, he didn't even bother to change his clothes, so he immediately asked to see Honganji Zhenru.After getting Honganji Zhengru to meet in person, and after a lot of hard work, he finally gritted his teeth and finally proposed the last bottom line of the Maori family to Honganji Zhengru. In addition to donating tens of thousands of money and food to Honganji, he also promised Honganji For example, assist Honganji Temple to build temples in the territory of the Maori family to develop believers.

Regarding the dangers of Honganji Temple, both Mori Motoji and Kuchiha Tsuyoshi are very clear. Once they help them build temples and develop believers in their own territory, it is actually tantamount to cutting their own flesh, and it is completely burying themselves. a nail.Moreover, during the diplomacy with Honganji this time, the Maori family actually paid nearly [-] guan in money, food and other supplies, which made the Maori family even more exhausted in the previous battle with the Luo family. It was so huge that it almost wiped out the money that the Maori family had saved during the years of dormancy.

But even so, Mao Liyuan and Kouyu Tongliang could only grit their teeth and swallow blood and tears in their stomachs. After all, at this time, the Luo family had already killed the door of the Maoli family's lair. I had no choice but to cut off my wrist again, and take all measures decisively to save the Maori family.

At this time, Kuchiha Tongliang was waiting here for Honganji Zhengru's reply. Before that, he had already stated the bottom line that the Mori family could agree to, and Honganji Zhengru asked him to come first after listening to his conditions. Resting outside, Honganji Zhengru himself began to discuss with the retainers inside, and the Mori family's conditions came.Kouyu Tongliang, who had been anxious for a long time, was resting in the reclamation area, so he simply waited outside.

"Looking at the expression on Honganji's Zhengru just now, it is obvious that the other party is very interested in the conditions of our family. I hope it can be done, otherwise..."

Just as Kouyu Tongliang was thinking in his mind, a family secretary in charge of patrolling the workshop walked up to him quickly.These family divisions and square officials are Zongmen warriors, who are responsible for the command of disciples in emergency situations.
