Chapter 667
The request from the military tent, which was shocked by everyone in the tent, could not help but ponder.
So soon, as in the case of the Inquiry, the Hoshino Family, who also came from the Hoshino Family, was from the Tuihou Kingdom, and the members of the Kusino Family, also requested to be transferred to the family territory.
Although there were strange scenes where several retainers jointly requested to transfer their fiefdoms, everyone at the scene, both the parties involved and other retainers, knew very well why this scene happened. For the rich families in the Warring States Period, the most core thing was mainly about survival and interests. As the family supervisors of a rich family, these retainers naturally knew what choices should be made.
So for a time, as the local wealthy family in Zhuzhou and Zhuzhou, they considered how to ensure the survival and interests of the family, and as the wealthy family in Fenghou, they considered how to avoid such a situation in the future. Of course, for these wealthy families in Fenghou area, the Luo family also needed them to help stabilize the territory in Fenghou, so they naturally did not need to request the transfer of their own territory. But they also had to learn from it.
So shortly after the incident ended, the wealthy families who had not been transferred from Toyoko, Yoshioka, Luci, Kitashiga and other unsigned families issued emergency orders at home, forcing the family members not to leave their own territory within half a year, and were only allowed to receive guests from the Luo family's family. They even took the initiative to apply for the Luo family's laws and regulations from Masara (which was equivalent to actively expressing their attitude of cooperation to Masara), and then took them home for the family members to memorize them by rote. Beware that they violated the laws of the Luo family's territory in the future.
Zhengliang did not think that the act of forcing several wealthy families to automatically apply for the territorial enfeoffment of the territory would at all cause fierce resistance from the retainers. During the Warring States Period, a family itself was a collective of interests. As long as sufficient benefits were given, the retainers would continue to support you. This special period of paying attention to big fish eating small fish is not a time when mercy is concerned. When it is tough, it must be tough (just like Maori Yuan asked the local wealthy families of Anyi to sign an umbrella affidavit). Now that the Luo family has such strength, it is naturally able to do such things. If other wealthy families change, they will even make the move to send adopted sons to these families and then replace them. The reason why Zhengliang did not do this is because he does not have so many sons and not so many daughters. Second, with the guarantee of the territory system, the retainers can only rely on the Luo family and cannot do the dominant ones.
After dealing with the rebellion in Chuqian, the three families including the Junzu Institute decided to transfer the seal to the Feihou Kingdom. Masara immediately led his army to return to Qibu City in Fenghou Kingdom. On the way back, he finally received the situation of obtaining supplies after destroying the temple shrine forces of Chuqian Kingdom. The gold was more than 10,000 taels, and silver was nearly 10,000 taels. The most important thing was that he searched for more than 80,000 stones of grain (these temple shrine forces were simply a little daimyo).
With more than 80,000 stones of life-saving food, the food problems within the territory can be alleviated to a certain extent. Therefore, Masayoshi was already considering whether to attack the remaining forces of the Otomo family. But soon, his plan was forced to cancel.
News came from Fenghou. Otoyoshi Town, who had been missing for a long time, actually appeared again. The rumor was that after falling into the river, he was washed to a village downstream by the river, and was rescued. After waking up, Otoyoshi Town hurriedly bid farewell to his savior's family, and then secretly returned to Fenghou (it was probably that he didn't even dare to believe his own retainers at this time. He was afraid of being attacked again). After a difficult journey, he finally arrived in the east county of Fenghou Kingdom. At this time, he was sending people to seek support from other daimyos. On the other hand, he inherited the position of the governor of the Otoyo family with the support of many Otoyo's retainers.
What made Masara gritted his teeth was that the guy Usuki Speedo actually fled back to the Higashi County, and even went to the Shikoku area on behalf of the Otomo family. As for the Otomo family, he also supported Otomo Yizhen to restore the country with great fanfare. He even sent reinforcements to Aoyama Castle at the junction of Tohomo Guodong and Tohomo Masa, and was preparing to come out to help the Otomo family when the Otomo family territory was attacked by the Luo family. The Ito family also officially came out to help the Sahiro family, which was confronting the forces of the Sohomo family in the Hotomo Haibe county.
"Lord, the Ming Dynasty has a saying, "Far from afar, close to attack," and this statement really expresses the strategies that our family should adopt at this time." After returning to Qibu Castle, military advisor Yamamoto Kazusuke advised Masayoro when facing such a complex surrounding environment.
This time, because of the repeated important information provided in previous strategies, Yamamoto Katsusuke's family received a large number of territorial rewards in the Toyogo Kingdom, and became the largest wealthy family in the Toyogo Kingdom (this was Masara's way of checking and balancing against local wealthy families). In addition, Yamamoto Katsusuke himself was also upgraded to the old family of the Luo family. In addition to the upgraded family, Kakuma Ishisou, Akaba Nobusuke, Kinyu Masaru, Yoshida Shigemasa, and the previous Toyogo Heiji, at this time, the Luo family had already grown up (three of them were a family).
In addition, Aguda, Tomohisa Oshima, Executive Yuankeji Nobuyuki, Ander, Murakami Takeki, Tao Masato, and Kunatong, Murakami, Ander was promoted to generals, and the previous generals Isono Toshima, Katsushima, Katsushima, Kanjima, and Fu Shin-Kaki, and Fu Shin-Kaki, and Masako Ma, Liu Le, and the Luo family also had seventeen generals. Watanabe Toshi, Asakami Sodi, Gongmoto Shin-tataka, Yoshikawa Yoshikawa Yoshikawa and others also became generals because of their accumulated military merits.
"Far and close attack?" Yamamoto Kazusuke's words immediately awakened Masaru. The so-called authorities were confused by the bystanders. Masaru was confused by the successive wars, and even forgot about this trick used in the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period in China.
If you want to fight far and near, you must first look at the situation around the Luo family. To the north of the Luo family is the Ouchi family with a territory spanning Kitakyushu and Nishiko, to the northeast, to the surviving Otomo family, to the northwest, to the Iki Island that was in civil strife; to the south, there are the Aoki family who is stubborn and the Shimazu family, which has already formed an alliance with the Luo family. To the southeast are the Ito family, whose power is gradually increasing. In addition, there are also forces such as the Nishitoji family, Utsumiya family, Ono family, Kono family, and Ichi family in the Shikoku area separated by a sea.
From the analysis of the situation of the enemy and us, the Oto family, the Oto family, the Aira family, the Ito family, and the Hiroshima Ikishima family are the mortal enemies of the Luo family. Among these enemies, the Oto family, the Aira family, and the Hiroshima family are far inferior to the Luo family at this time, and are the forces that the Luo family should consider key strategies next. As for the Hoto family, it will have to confront each other for a long time.
So after summoning several retainers to discuss, Zhengliang immediately made arrangements:
The order was ordered to allow Akaba Nobuyuki, the National Hanamaki Castle of the Chuanqian State, to approach the Sozo County, and to put pressure on the Daunai family, and to force the Daunai family to compensate for the invasion of the Kuanqian Luo family territory. As for the conditions for compensation, the same population.
This time, before the Tutuo captured so many sects and statues. The captives of the Danei family happened to ask the Danei family to send their families over. Although the Danei family would use this to send some detailed works, these people would just be sent to Feihou to settle down. With high mountains and far rivers, the effect of these detailed works seems very limited.
Moreover, Masayora knew that the Daou family was unwilling to fight with the Luo family at this time. If the Luo family looked like they were confronting it to the end, the Daou family would naturally compromise. Anyway, more than 80,000 stone of grain were seized from the temple shrine forces, and the Luo family had the confidence to compete with the Daou family. It would be more vivid to see who would confront it to the end.
In addition, Kinoshita Masaki, who is stationed at the junction of Toyogo Oita County and Somi County, was allowed to march straight to the north and directly invade the Beppu Bay Plain, which is in the plain of the Ichimaba.
The Beppu Bay Plain is the future Beppu City. The famous Beppu Hachitang (hot spring) is also mostly concentrated here. This plain is formed by the impact of the rivers of many mountainous mountains to the west. It is the most fertile place in Sumi County. At this time, the Otomo family only had the entire Kyoto County, as well as half of Sumi County and half of the Haibu County. If they want to maintain enough military power to fight against the Luo family, they must compete for every inch of land in these three places to support the military power. Masayoshi wanted to seize one point and constantly harass the Otomo family.
After analysis, among the two areas bordering the Otomo family and the Luo Family territory, the Sabuki Bay area in the southeast of the Haibe County region, since the border areas are all beaches and forests, it helps the other party's defense. It is not very meaningful to enter the territory to harass the other party, and may even be ambushed by the other party. The principle of Sumiya County Beppu Bay in the northeast is different. After taking the battle from Takasaki Yama Castle controlled by the Luo Family, you can directly enter the coastal plains of the Yima Plain. Then the Luo Family's military force can be destroyed wantonly. At this time, the Otomo family, which is very close to the fertile land, will naturally not be a turtle, and will naturally send troops to fight, and even lure the Otomo family to help the battle. Therefore, in the future, this will be a meat grinding farm for the Luo Family to fight against the Otomo family and the Otomo family.
The so-called offense is the best defense. The two positions in the Tsumaezo County and Toyogo Sumimi County will help change the passive situation around the Luo family. In addition, the Luo family can completely use a static and static force to deal with the invading Ito family. Whether it is the Nakatani Izuki at the junction of Ono County and Higashibe County, or the Takahirayama area at the junction of Tsukumi Bay and Sabuki Bay, the Luo family can defend the danger with favorable terrain, allowing the other party to return without success.
As for diplomacy, we must also take the initiative to attack. The first is to send an envoy to the Danai family (who happened to accompany the Luo family's former envoy to return to the Danai family), protesting against the Danai family's tore up the peace agreement to attack the Luo family's former territory, and cooperate with the military force of Rikhuashan City to put pressure on the Danai family.
The Shiguo side also sent envoys, and the Otomo family had many enemies there in the past. The so-called enemy's enemy was friends, so Masara decided to send people to the Four Kingdoms to win over allies like the Otomo family. The one who took the initiative to request the mission was Kizaki Chungtaka who had just returned from other places. In addition, Masarara was also planning to send Ali and others who had just returned from Zhou Fang to set off with Kizaki Chungtaka. The goal of Ali and others was naturally to assassinate Usuki, the Otomo family's retainer who had also rushed to the Four Kingdoms. Last time, Usuki ran away, this time, this guy must not leave the Shiguo area.
Similarly, adhering to the principle that the enemy is a friend, Masara decided to send envoys to the Izumo Niko family again. The last time the envoy sent to the Niko family had returned, and although the Niko family was very courteous to the envoys of the Luo family, the Niko family did not immediately respond to the alliance between the two families. Masarara could see from the attitude of the Niko family that the Niko family seemed to be self-reliant. Moreover, the Luo family was still in the joint siege between the Oui family and the Oui family at that time, and life and death were uncertain, so he looked down on the Luo family a little bit. With the young and energetic personality of Niko Haruki, it is very likely that he had this idea. However, as the Luo family defeated the Oui family this time, the Oui family almost destroyed the Oui family. At this time, the Luo family had the qualifications to be on an equal footing with the Niko family, so the alliance could naturally sit down and have a good talk.
