Chapter 923 Final choice

Zhengliang is facing a difficult choice in Fangshankou Castle in the Western Kingdom. .Music. Read.Novel.2x.com Just when Masara was thinking carefully, as the envoy of the emperor and the shogunate, Kyo Gokichi, who was sent by Masara to Beizhou for a visit, suddenly asked to return to Yamaguchi Castle at this sensitive time.

This made Zhengliang immediately alert.First of all, the other party seems to know about the changes in Nanzhou.It seems that the other party also has many ways to obtain information, which once again strengthened Zhengliang's decision to implement the sea ban.As long as the sea ban is implemented and other forces are prohibited from entering the Luo family's inland sea or even the border of the land territory in the name of merchant ships, then the intelligence channels of various forces will be greatly reduced.

Secondly, since the news of the change in Nanzhou can be heard in Jinggaoji in Beizhou, it seems that the Maori family will know the news sooner or later, right?Once the Maori family gets the news, how will the Maori family respond?Maybe ordinary big names and powerful people would just sit back and wait for changes in the Luo family because of this, but Mao Liyuan, who has always been scheming, would certainly not be like this. Zhengliang was really worried about how the other party would make changes against the Luo family.

Of course, Zhengliang's worries are not superfluous. After all, he doesn't know much about the real situation inside the Mori family at this time, and he doesn't know that the Mori family is also very much looking forward to the peace negotiation with the Luo family at this time.In Zhengliang's view, if Mori Moto, after learning of the changes in Nanzhou, resolutely united with the Shimadzu family and the Ito family to delay the Luo family, so that the Shimadzu family and Ito family in Nanzhou can be stabilized, then by then The Roche family had a headache.

Then, if we temporarily negotiate peace with the Maori family, what kind of benefits will the Luo family get?Zheng Liang thought about it carefully.The benefits that will be roughly judged will be as follows:

One is.Under the condition of ensuring the stability of the border with Maori.It was able to draw more troops from the Fan Squad that was fighting fiercely with the Luo family to quell the riots in the newly occupied areas of the Luo family's West Country, and speed up the stability and smooth reception of these areas;

The second is to allow the Maori family to gather troops to deal with other forces such as the Nizi family. The Luo family can even send people to instigate dissension, prompting the Maori family to confront these forces, thereby consuming the strength of the Maori family, the Nizi family and other forces;

The third is that the Luo family just took the opportunity to restrain themselves, so as not to invade due to continuous expansion.It aroused the vigilance of all the forces in Honshu Island and Shikoku and even jointly opposed the Luo family, and thus bought a lot of time for the Luo family to quietly digest the newly occupied Western territory;

Fourth, as mentioned before, the local battle with the Maori family was too difficult. Not only could they not win the opponent quickly, but also consumed more strategic resources than originally planned in the process. It is not conducive to the future development and expansion of the Luo family.The so-called persimmons are picked for soft ones, and now the Maoli family is indeed not a soft persimmon.

Fifth, compared with Nanzhou, the Maoli family lost to the Luo family in succession before.Facing the continuous invasion of Luo's family, the internal forces of the vassals became more united.This allowed Mao Liyuan to command all the forces to fight against the Luo family.Moreover, due to the high mountains and dense forests, the border with the Luo family was narrow, which allowed the Maori family to gather superior forces to fight against the Luo family's army, making it difficult for the Luo family's strategy to make progress in a short period of time.

On the Nanzhou side, first of all, as the forces confronting the Luo family, they are not united. At least the Shimadzu family and the Ito family are united, but they are under their own jurisdiction. What's more, there are many resistance islands in Nanzhou. The Tsu family, the Ito family, and they tend to be the forces of the Luo family.Such a Nanzhou with intricate forces is naturally more conducive to the Luo family's strategy.

Moreover, compared to the Maori family, the border between the Nanzhou area and the Luo family is dozens of times longer and has a larger area. This is beneficial for the Luo family to attack Nanzhou from different directions, and it will also be detrimental to the Shimadzu family and the Ito family. Wait for the anti-Roche family forces to guard against the Roche family at the border.

So after some analysis, first of all, the plan of attacking the Maori family and Nanzhou at the same time was rejected by Zheng Liang. Not only could Zheng Liang not choose this plan, but he had to prevent this from happening.But now Zheng Liang is most worried about the scheming Mao Liyuan, after receiving the news from Nanzhou, he would rather sacrifice the immediate interests of the Maoli family, and insist on delaying the Luo family, thus making the Luo family face the dilemma of two battlefields at the same time .

In such a situation, the Luo family will win in the end, and a lot of successor power will be consumed. In fact, the Maoli family and Nanzhou will also suffer great damage, and even be destroyed by the Luo family.Therefore, this kind of situation is actually the ending of all three losers.For such a situation, although normal people would not choose, it is inevitable that there will be fools who will do so desperately.

After giving up the plan of launching two fronts at the same time, then it is a choice to negotiate peace with one side or maintain the status quo, while the other side will attack with all its strength.It has been analyzed before, and with the same threat to the Luo family, it seems that it is easier to deal with Nanzhou and be dealt with Maori, so Zhengliang finally decided to negotiate a peace with the Maori, and then gather resources and troops to solve Nanzhou first.

It's just that even if it is a peace negotiation, the Luo family must not be the first to bring it up, otherwise Mao Liyuan, who is outstanding in strategy, will inevitably have some other ideas.So the cleverness of Jing Gaoji, who is very good at observing the situation, was once again reflected.

After returning to Yamaguchi Castle, taking advantage of Masara's opportunity to meet him, Kyo Gokichi indirectly asked the emperor and the shogunate he represented to intervene in the war between the Luo family and the Mori family.Previously, because the Luo family was on the absolutely strong side, and Zhengliang had clearly hinted that he was unwilling to negotiate peace with the Maori family, he naturally did not dare to make such a request. Knowing that the Luo family will definitely be affected.This reading can be seen from the fact that he was invited by Zheng Liang as soon as he came back, and the governor of Luo's family personally welcomed him.Of course, he also knew that even though there were changes in Nanzhou, the Luo family was still in the upper hand at this time, so when he made the request, it was from the perspective of the emperor and the shogunate, in order to avoid the loss of life. Ask the Luo family to show their noble hands and let the Maoli family go.

For Jing Gaoji's ability to do things, the political conscience naturally admired it, but on the surface he still pretended to be troubled, and did not immediately answer Jing Gaoji's request, but went back and pretended to discuss it with his retainers. , Only on the second day did someone reply to Jing Gaoji, and agreed to Jing Gaoji's request as a mediation envoy.
