Chapter 1096 Ji Hong's appraisal
Zhefu Mountain City is located in Oda County, bordering the eastern part of Beihou Kingdom in western China. It is located in a canyon zone between Zhefu Mountain and Mabei Mountain. It controls the entry of the western part of BeiChina into central and eastern China, and can be said to be a place that military strategists must fight for.
Now, without spending one soldier and one soldier, the Luo family got this strategic city, which really surprised Zhengliang. What made Zhengliang even more amused was that the one who captured this city for him was the temple and shrine power headed by China, led by Xianxiangzong.
"What's going on?"
Masayoshi couldn't help but say to himself. You should know that the Luo family had had conflicts with these temples and shrines several times before, and the two sides were full of conflicts. Even Masayoshi had been promoted by these forces as "Buddha enemy". But this enemy took the initiative to seize strategic locations for the Luo family this time, and then left without saying a word. So, for a moment, Masayoshi didn't know how to describe his mood at this time.
There is also the strange monk named Suifeng who could easily mobilize the power of local temples and shrines in China. The background is very deep. What makes Zhengliang even speechless is that this monk is really very casual! He waved his hand and floated away.
"Do you have a good relationship with the temple shrines in the central and northern regions of China?" Then Masayoro remembered the previous request of this monk Suifeng ⊕Changfeng⊕Literature,.c↓fwx., "Is it the exchange of interests between the local temple shrine forces and their families? They voluntarily give up the interests of the southern coastal areas in exchange for peace in the central and northern regions?"
In fact, after the other party took the initiative to hand over Zhefushan City to the Luo family, the interest transaction between the two parties had been reached. If Zhengliang kept his promise, he would really not be able to get involved in the central and northern regions of China.
However, in fact, Masayoshi really didn't need to consider this transaction, because according to the Luo family's plan of Shangluo, the Luo family originally planned to be low-key, slowly progressed slowly, and gradually gradually controlled the coastal areas along the Shangluo Road. As for the middle and northern areas along the way, let the Maori family and the Nizi family continue to tangle there.
"If you don't take advantage, you're a fool." When he thought of opening the door to the Chinese region for no reason without paying too much benefits, Zhengliang was naturally very happy. Even Zhengliang planned to contact these temple and shrine forces secretly. In the middle of Shangluo, the northern region caused some trouble to the local wealthy forces? As the saying goes, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. After this transaction process, I believe that Zhengliang's plan can be realized.
"Since that's the case, let's digest the newly occupied areas in Beihou and Bei China. Now, we should go back and get together with our wives and children." After thinking of this, Zhengliang said with a smile.
In the past two years, although the Luo family had completely become dormant, Zhengliang was traveling around the territory. On the one hand, he inspected the situation of the territory on the spot, and on the other hand, he personally guided the various institutions in the family to prepare for the work of Shangluo. In this way, he had not returned to Xuefu City for more than half a year to reunite with his wives and children. So this time, after starting to slowly go to Luo, Zhengliang would not run around everywhere, but would have to stay in the journey of Shangluo all the way, which gave Zhengliang the opportunity to reunite with his wives and children. So Zhengliang simply arranged all his wives and children to temporarily reunite in the area controlled by the Luo family in Beihou Kingdom.
And just today, his wife and children had already arrived at the mansion of the city lord in the city under the escort of the army. So after basically handling the government affairs, Masara directly left the Tianshou Pavilion, which was handling the government affairs, and came to the mansion nearby.
When he returned to the city lord's mansion and came to the door of the backyard, he pushed open the door with one hand.
The first thing that caught my eye was a little kid, who looked stupid. When he saw a "stranger" appearing behind the door, he put his finger in his mouth and sucked it, then blinked his eyes and looked up and down at Zhengliang.
Masayoshi laughed, hugged the little kid with both hands, held it in his arms, and smiled at his left and right, "How is it? Does it look like me?"
After hearing what Masarara said, Marume Nagae, Togo's important position, and Toju Kiyori all laughed. However, the image of these guys laughing was really bad at this time!
Zhengliang smiled even more bitterly. Since he had not returned home for more than half a year, the maids next to the little kid were all newcomers (according to the laws of the Luo family, when the maids reached a certain age, they would be betrothed to the retainers and warriors of the Luo family in the name of the Luo family according to the maid's wishes. Don't think that this is a torture for them. In fact, in their opinion, this is very generous treatment. Because with the golden signs of the Luo family and marrying people who are almost equivalent to those of the golden collar in later generations, their lives will be happier. Therefore, every time the Luo family recruits new maids, it is a time when the girls in the entire territory are in a turbulent manner, which is almost equivalent to a large-scale talent show in later generations).
Now, it is obvious that during the past six months when Zhengliang was not at home, his family had once again selected a new group of maids under the surveillance of his wives and the intelligence cabinet. At this time, the maids serving Zhengliang's little kids were newcomers. When they saw Zhengliang's group of "strangers" suddenly breaking in, they were even more rude to the young masters they served, a bold maid immediately stood up and said, "This is the young master of Master Zhengliang, who is the Luo family's Jiuzhou School, please put him down quickly."
After the maid said that, the retainers around Zhengliang burst into laughter, and the maid's face turned pale because of this.
Zhengliang nodded and said, "That's right, I'm here to find him this time."
"Let me go!"
Just as Zhengliang finished speaking, a young man about ten years old rushed out of the inner room with a wooden gun in his hand. He pointed at Zhengliang and shouted, "Bold. This is the son of my important official of the Luo family. You dare to intercept and kidnap arbitrarily. Are you not afraid of being punished?"
Zhengliang was slightly surprised and wondered why there was a boy in his backyard. I didn’t hear that his child was from whom he was.
Zhengliang lowered his face and shouted, "Yes, I just want to kidnap him, what do you want? Can you beat so many of us alone?"
As soon as Masayoshi finished speaking, his own retainers and warriors all had a smile on their faces.
The young man saw Zhengliang and his group of people, and was not afraid. He stepped forward with a wooden gun and said, "Relying on more people is nothing to do. If you have the courage to fight me, you will not be allowed to kidnap him."
Faced with the challenge of this child, Zhengliang's retainers all laughed. However, they thought that the other party might be the family of the lord Zhengliang, so they did not dare to speak sarcastic.
The young man saw that others underestimate him, and was neither angry. He turned to stand calmly, staring at the child in Zhengliang's hands.
Seeing that although the other party was young, Masayoshi was calm and composed under the despise of everyone, he had a certain degree of demeanor. Moreover, his decisive appearance was to protect his fourth son Yoshinomaru, who was only six years old in his arms, Masayoshi admired him very much.
Zheng Lian couldn't help but feel the intention of taking the school exam, saying, "Since that's the case, I will send my subordinates to decide the winner and lose with you."
After saying that, Masayora smiled and said to a cloaked warrior under his command: "Just play with him and don't hurt him."
After hearing this, the cloak warriors agreed immediately, with a smile on their faces, obviously full of playfulness. They put the samurai sword aside and then stepped forward to fight casually.
"Come on, boy, I'll play with you."
Seeing the other party's contempt, the boy bit his teeth and stepped forward with a gun.
"oh!"
In the amazement of everyone, the cloaked warriors under Masara's men were actually put on by the other party within one round. The warrior stood up in a mess, patted the dust on his butt, and stepped forward again.
"oh!"
After several rounds of battle, the samurai was knocked down again. When Masaru's samurai was angry and wanted to go back, Masaru stopped him.
The young man said with a look of grace, "You know that I, Mr. Minomaru, are so powerful, so why don't you give up quickly. I'll spare you a way out."
Zhengliang heard the boy's words and smiled and asked, "Who taught you this gun technique?"
The young man snorted, obviously disdaining to answer.
At this time, Marume Nagae beside Masara suddenly moved his body and rushed to the boy. He subdued the other party at a blink of an eye and removed the spear in his hand. Marume Nagae can be said to be one of the personal disciples of Luo Shiliu founded by Masarara. With his extraordinary martial arts talent, he has controlled many of Masarara's unique skills. Now with his combat power, he can be called a swordsman. It is precisely because Marume Nagae has such strength that it is completely easy to deal with such a boy.
The young man was astonished for a while, then said angrily: "You have violated the warrior's loyalty and attacked others."
Marume Nagae laughed and said, "I am not against the samurai Nobuyo. In my eyes, you are not qualified to be my opponent."
After saying that, Marume Nagae let go of the boy, turned around and handed the wooden gun back to the boy.
The young man looked at Marumi Nagae in surprise and suspicion, obviously a little afraid of him.
Zhengliang asked again and said, "Who taught you your gun technique?"
The young man snorted, turned his head and refused to answer.
Masara smiled and continued, "Even if you don't answer, I can guess it. The marksmanship to you may be from Kinoshita Masaru or Gongfu Shigetachi."
The young man raised his eyebrows, showed a look of pride, and said, "You will never guess who taught me, I just won't tell you."
At this time, Masarara looked surprised and asked, "You are really not simple, you can get the personal teachings from Isono Toshimasa."
Hearing Masayoshi say this, the boy opened his mouth wide, almost dislocated his jaw, pointed at Masayoshi and asked, "How do you know?"
Zhengliang spread his hands and imitated the other party's tone and smiled, "I just won't tell you."
"You..." The young man angrily pushed the wooden gun across and looked at Marume Nagato and said, "Although I am not your opponent, because I haven't grown up yet, I will definitely beat you in the future."
Marume Nagae shook her head but did not accept the conversation.
At this moment, the young man suddenly turned his eyes to the door and shouted: "My father, you are here, hurry up and take down these bandits for me."
After hearing the boy say this, everyone looked at the back of the door and saw three or four samurai dressed in a warrior walking into the house. The leader was one of the old men who followed Masayoshi when Masayoshi started his business, the lord of Xuefu City, and the family of Yusuke. It is estimated that this time he was personally responsible for leading the army to escort Masayoshi's family to prepare for the country. After hearing the boy's name Yusuke as his father, Masayoshi finally knew who this boy was.
At this time, the young man had walked to Yukisuke carefully, pointed his finger at Marume Nagae, and said, "My father, this person is very powerful, you must be careful."
Then he pointed at Zhengliang and said, "This person is the other party's leader, and the young master was kidnapped in his hands."
Yukisuke Yokog took a look at his son, showing an angry look, and immediately knelt down to Masaru and said, "Go to the lord."
"Master?"
The boy was surprised, pointed at Zhengliang, and said in a daze: "You are the lord of my Luo family, Lord Zhengliang, the hero of the Kyushu Eagle?"
Masara Yoko glanced at Yukisuke's son and said to Yukisuke: "This is Mianomaru from that time. I didn't expect that he is so old now!"
Yukisuke said respectfully: "Lord, Madam and others are at the back of the yard. If they knew that the lord was back, they would definitely be very happy."
Zhengliang nodded and said, "Yes, I have been missing for more than half a year."
Yukisuke turned his head and saw his son looking like he was about to sneak away without paying attention, he immediately said angrily: "Mannomaru, where are you going? You are not yelling to pay homage to your lord all day long. Today, Lord is in front of you, where are you going?"
The boy smiled awkwardly, reached out to spare, turned around and walked back, and smiled at Zhengliang, "Lord, don't be surprised about what happened today."
Masara did not argue about this. Back then, after destroying the Otomo family, Masara also adopted many strategies to win over and divide the local wealthy families in the Otomo family territory, one of which was to adopt a marriage method. It was in accordance with Masara's order that Yukisuke married the princess of the Yoshihiro family of Toyoho, who had almost lost most of the men in his family, and changed his name to Yoshihiro Yukisuke.
The Yoshihiro family was originally a famous family in Kyushu. Yukisuke was naturally very happy to be able to inherit the Yoshihiro family's family character. Two years later, he gave birth to a male child with the princess of the Yoshihiro family. Now it seems that he is the ten-year-old boy in front of him. Because Masaru was not at home for a long time and Yukisuke did not deliberately ask Masaru to accept his son as a small surname, Masaru had never recognized Yukisu's son before.
Thinking of this, Masara looked at Yoshihiro Kanriyan and said, "Although it was a misunderstanding just now, you, a young man, can come out alone to save my son without fearing us samurai. I am very moved by this friendship."
Then, Masara turned to Yukisuke and said, "Since that's the case, I will give Minomaru the word "Kanri". When the Yuanfu is in the throne, I will personally support Minomaru's throne ceremony, and his name will be chosen as Yoshihiro Kanri."
"Thank you lord!" Yoshihiro Yukisuke immediately knelt down on the ground and thanked him gratefully. This was a great reward. Not only did he get the name of his lord himself, but he could also have a close relationship with his lord. His son's future will be smooth in the future.
