Warring States Eagle

In Matsuo Castle of Hyuga Country in Kyushu, there was a sound of shouting and killing at this time. The attacking Luo family army and the defending Ito family, Shimadzu family, and Saeki family's three-party coalition forces were still fighting.

However, the sky gradually brightened, and outside the city, the black-armored Luo family's army lined up in a neat square formation, continuously coming.This time, the main forces of the attack on Matsuo Castle were the No. 500 and No. 5000 standing cavalry squadrons of the Luo family led by Masahiro Isono and Masanobu Takasaka, and the second standing iron artillery squadron led by Yoshimi Irita. , a total of [-] people. In addition, there are [-] to [-] people standing in reserve for joint operations. In this way, there are only [-] people in the Luo family's army that directly participated in the attack on Matsuo Castle.

In addition, under the joint and coordinated arrangements of the Cabinet, the Military Cabinet, and the Intelligence Cabinet, the territories conquered along the way from Zhongshan Castle at the junction of the western border between the Higo Kingdom and the Hyuga Kingdom to Matsuo Castle have been continuously driven out of the Higo Kingdom. The temporary mobilization of the farmers and soldiers of the Luo family took over.These farmers and soldiers will quickly and fully control these territories under the command of the Cabinet, Military Cabinet, and Intelligence Cabinet in a short period of time, and at the same time be ready to support the war in Matsuo Castle.It can be said that this time Zhengliang really mobilized all the manpower and material resources in the territory of the Luo family for the strategy of Southern Kyushu.Compared with the territory of the Saeki family in the Bungo country and the Matsuo Castle in the Hyuga country where the war was fierce, the town outside the school city of the Luo family in the Hizen country of Kyushu at this time seemed much quieter.

The outdoors of the castle town of Xuefucheng.At this time, the surface of the Kase River that traverses the castle town is shrouded in morning mist, and the surface of the Ariake Sea in the distance is dark green.White egrets are everywhere in the green fields.The two horses galloped past like flying arrows.Luo Shizhenliang's first son, Luo Shi Huiliang, took the lead, followed by his second son, Luo Shi Xinliang.

After several years of experience at home and in the army, the 17-year-old Luo Shihuiliang gradually has the temperament of the heir to the family governor.During this period of time, when his father Zhengliang went out to fight continuously.He mainly manages the government affairs of the Luo family's territory with the help of family members such as Togo Heiji, Irita Sencheng, Nabeshima Qingfang and other retainers.Provide logistical support for his father Masaragi's campaign, while ensuring the steady development of the territory, focusing on the construction and development of the newly occupied Xiguo territory.As for his younger brother Song Wangwan, he was also 17 years old at this time.Just last year, the father who had just returned home from the Western Region.He personally held a grand Yuanfu ceremony for his younger brother Song Wangmaru at the Zhongxiao Temple of the Luo Family Clan Temple in Nogayama, Matsuura County, Hizen Province. From then on, Song Wangmaru was officially named Luo Shi Xinliang.General retainers respectfully call Song Wangwan His Highness Xinliang.

The two brothers galloped along the embankment for three miles non-stop.Both of them do this every morning.This has become their daily lesson.

"Song Wangwan." After galloping for three miles in one breath, Luo Shihuiliang stopped the horse.The morning mist has not completely dissipated, filling the woods. "Take a break here. There should be a good harvest this year."…

"There will be a good harvest." His younger brother Luo Shi Xinliang's forehead was glowing with youthful brilliance, and he got off the horse without caring to wipe off the sweat from his forehead.

"Let's rest on the grass."

"You can't rest on the grass at any time... This is what Father always asked us to do in the past."

"It can be flexible sometimes. Sit down!" Finished.Luo Shihuiliang was the first to lie down on the grass.Feeling the coolness of the wet grass on his neck, he couldn't help stretching.

Although it has already been served.But the younger brother Xinliang's serious and even rigid character has not changed, and even gradually enlarged.But no matter what, Xinliang is still the younger brother who likes to dance with knives and guns when he was a child, but followed his little follower with a snot in his nose.Thinking of this, Luo Shihuiliang recalled the scene when he took his younger brother Xinliang and often wandered among the common people in strange costumes, carnivaling with the villagers. Back then, the two brothers made a lot of jokes about it.Of course, this is just a simple game. Compared with the sisters Mihime and Nohime who are known as the ghost princesses of the Luo family, the jokes and things they make among the common people are incomparable.

Of course, as they grow older, under the guidance of their father Zhengliang, the two brothers Huiliang and Xinliang gradually realized that this kind of behavior of mixing with the common people is not only a joke, but also an opportunity to understand the sentiments of the people. .Through the daily actions of the common people, one can see how the Luo family manages the territory.

"Hey!"

Thinking of this, Luo Shihuiliang couldn't help sighing secretly in his heart.As they get older, they need to take care of more and more things, and the important responsibilities of the family gradually fall on their shoulders, and the opportunities for carefree play in the past are less and less.What makes him feel even more sad is that in the near future, his younger brother Xinliang will also leave him and take on his own responsibilities alone.

"Bah!"

Just as Luo Shihuiliang sighed in his heart, a voice suddenly came from the woods next to the resting place of him and his brother Xinliang, and a boy who looked only eight or nine years old came out.

The sudden sound made Luo Shi Xinliang jump up in horror. "who is it?"

While the younger brother Xinliang was terrified, the older brother Huiliang was still lying on the grass, smiling comfortably.Although the two rode wildly alone in the wild, in order to protect the safety of the two of them, the black eagle who was actually at home closely guarded them nearby.You know, the black eagle at home is very powerful, and because the two are used to running horses here, in fact, the area around this place has been separately divided by the Luo family as the racecourse for their two brothers. , no one else will appear.So now that someone suddenly appeared beside them, it was natural that they had been scouted by the people around them who were protecting the two brothers, so for the two of them, the visitor was absolutely safe.What's more, when the voice of the comer just sounded, Huiliang already knew who it was from the voice.

On the other side, the eight or nine-year-old boy who appeared was quite strangely dressed. He was wearing a crumpled battle uniform with shoulders and a long sword hanging from his waist. The fake mustache was glued to the boy's chin, but it curled straight into the air, like a wandering ronin warrior.

"Who?" After seeing this boy, Luo Shi Xinliang's mouth turned up. He clearly recognized who came, but he still pretended not to know him, and continued to shout angrily at him.

"I want to see His Highness Huiliang." The visitor pretended to be an adult, and replied loudly without fear.

Xinliang turned his head to look at his elder brother Huiliang, only to see him squinting his eyes calmly, looking at the sky. "If you just want to meet, I can't inform you. Report your name."...

After hearing this, the visitor smiled slyly, and then his face changed, and he pretended to be serious and said: "You are the captain of Luo's Zuobingwei, Xin Liang. I am under the command of Luo's Dazai Kyushu to explore the topic of Kyushu Eagle Masamori. A wise man who knows everything about astronomy, geography, and everything in the world."

"What bullshit! You know astronomy, but—" Xinliang held back his laughter after hearing this, and shouted, "Absurd! Are you crazy? Don't get close, or you will be shot to death." After speaking, he picked up his body A branch next to it glowed a little, and it was used as a Taidao.

"Too stingy. Your Highness Huiliang rides out of the city every morning. Do you know why?"

"Are you still uttering wild words?"

"For the sake of the common people in the world, you have to speak wild words. How does Captain Luo Shizuobingwei view the world today? You have to carefully speculate on Master Huiliang's mind. He is familiar with the terrain and the method of field warfare. Prepare for the field assessment. It is a gift from heaven that His Royal Highness Huiliang can meet your subordinate now. If you are next to someone, you can win the world." At this time, the visitor touched the fake beard glued on his chin, pretending Said very deeply.

"What? A gift from heaven?" Xinliang was almost not frightened by the brazen words of the little boy in front of him, his mouth opened wide.

"Okay, both of you stop."

Brother Huiliang, who had been silent until now, did sit up directly at this time, and spoke to stop him.He couldn't stop it, the little boy was getting more and more outrageous, not only pretending to be his father Masaragi, but also pretending to speak in the usual tone of his grandfather Togo Heiji, if he was seen by his grandfather Togo Heiji, the boy would definitely be punished.Besides, if other retainers in the family found out about the boy pretending to be his father Zhengliang, he would definitely be accused of disrespecting the head of the family.Although the boy is his father's child, he still cannot escape the guilt.Even because of disrespect to his father, the crime will be more serious.As an elder brother, he naturally wanted to stop this situation in time.

Indeed, the boy who appeared suddenly was none other than Luo Shihuiliang's third younger brother Yuanwangmaru.Genohmaru is already nine years old this year. He is the son of his mother Yui Hatano. After Genfu, he will be named Matsuura Takanobu, and he will inherit the position of family governor of the Matsuura clan of Hizen Kingdom.
