In the meditation room, Empress Xiao and Yi Lazy are at the top, on the left, Lu Ning and Lu Lihua; On the right side, kneeling are Murayama Ryutaro, the lord of Shanxi Castle, Shibata Zhang Masao, the lord of Sanshan Castle, and two generals.

The so-called general of the squire, this time to suppress the bandits, a total of 500 people in the 50 teams of ashigaru, and 100 people in the samurai are in charge of the samurai.

From among the samurai shoashigaku, two outstanding ones are selected to lead all the samurai and ashigaru, and they are called squire generals.

These two generals were given the surname Qi, one Wang Shengzhong and the other Wang Minxing.

The two of them were not strong in any place, so they didn't have the Miao character starting with the place name, but they directly had the surname of the Central Plains, and they were grateful for a while, because this meant that they had become the aristocratic class of Dongying since then, and they could be recruited to become the pawns of the Qi army at any time.

The "two kings" were selected under Lu Ning's observation, and the two people may not be the strongest in combat among the generals, but they are very smart-minded, such as Wang Minxing, who deceived the leader of the "driving all the people" and made him think that he had a person who was responsible for the internal response.

There have been too many historical changes, and Lu Ning also knows that if the other party really wants to sneak attack his army, he will inevitably come to disintegrate the ashigaru combat force to find internal responses, yes, Liang Yu has already had to order, talk to the hundred warriors one by one, and tell them that the traitors may contact them, and if they hide and do not report, not only themselves, but also their relatives will be implicated, and they will suffer the most cruel torture.

But saying that, I don't want this Wang Minxing to act very well, no, the leader of the Nasu people who was tied up and knelt down like a twisted flower stared at him fiercely, as if he wanted to bite him to death.

It's Murayama Liu Taro, although he also had a relationship with Nasu Zhongchang, but he didn't make any promises, and the Qi people who sent him were also true, if Nasu Zhongchang's sneak attack was successful, he would have other plans.

But since you didn't succeed, you can't complain.

Yes, Murayama Liu Taro is very calm, but looking at these Qi people here, what will happen in the future, he has gradually made up his mind in his heart.

"I'm a loyal chief from Nasu! My father, Fujiwara Shimono Kunimori Hidego! ”

Empress Xiao and Yi Lazy asked him for his name, but Nasu Zhongchang replied with his head up, obviously, this is also a kind of pride, incognito, which is not in line with the current Dongying warriors' perception of honor.

However, it also made Lu Ning suddenly open his mouth to many things.

It turned out that behind the scenes, it was Fujiwara Hidego.

More than 20 years ago, he was the commander of Shimono, that is, one of the many local heroes who were appointed as local commanders, but he was amazingly powerful and resourceful, and made great contributions in quelling the Taira Shomon Rebellion.

Ping Jiangmen is the only person in the history of Dongying who rebelled and called himself the new emperor, because in the history of Dongying, there are many people who really control this land, but they are all puppets who use the emperor as a mascot and claim that the new emperor wants to replace him, and he is the only one.

At that time, his influence spread to the eight countries of Kwantung, and based on the lower general country, he proclaimed himself the new emperor, took Ishii Township as the royal city, set up left and right ministers and hundreds of officials in eight provinces, formulated the jade seal, and shook Kyoto.

It was also the rebellion of the Heishomon that the ministers of Kyoto were unable to deal with, and the status of the local power was further enhanced.

Fujiwara Hidego made a great contribution to the pacification of the Taira Shomon Gate and was appointed as the national defender of Shimono and Musashi.

Now, this old gentleman, I am afraid that he is seventy or eighty years old, has changed from the brave and invincible of the year to a wise man who is scheming and calculating, and is known as "the first wise man in Maoye." ”

The so-called Maono is Ueno, Shimono and Musashi, which were all the world of the Ezo Maoren back then, so they were called Maono.

Although, because of the power struggle in Kyoto, Fujiwara Hidego has been sent to Musashi Kunimoo and only served as Shimono Kunimong, but his influence is unmatched in Maono.

Even some prefectures in Mutsu Province, which is adjacent to Shimono to the north, were also under his influence.

Because of this, he can make his son run to Shanxi, Sanshan and other places to attack the city lord who belongs to Daqi.

He did this, not for the sake of the minister of Kyoto, but because, based on the underground wilderness country, adjacent to the Mutsu country, he clearly realized that the pace of the Qi people will not only stay in the Mutsu, but will definitely continue to invade the south, so that he can delay for a moment to buy time for Kyoto to resist Qi, so that the territory he has been working hard in the Shimono country for decades will not fall into the hands of the Qi people.

"Lord Chengxiangdian, Lord Lijingdian, I think we should go south to crusade against the three counties of Shanbei, Yuhu, and Huixing." Lu Ning bowed slightly and said.

The three counties that Lu Ning said are the three counties of Zhici, Yema, and Aizu between the northwest of the mountain and the Shimono country, and Nasu Tadashicho's "driving the crowd", except for those brought from the Shimono country, are mainly recruited from these three counties.

These three counties are strong and strong, and they also blatantly refuse to accept the canonization of Qi people.

Yi lazy glanced at Lu Ning and bowed slightly, "This hall thinks the same, and I will write to Lord Headquarters." ”

Listening to her arrogant self-proclaim, Lu Ning was helpless, and said in her heart that after this period of time, I have to clean up you.

Empress Xiao, in front of Lu Ning, still didn't dare to be presumptuous, yes, she didn't make a sound.

Shibata Zhang Zhengxiong, his eyes were red and he kept staring at Nasu Tadacho, the mastermind who killed his entire family.

"Pull out the leader of the traitors and behead them for public display." Empress Xiao waved her hand.

These were all agreed upon by Lu Ning in advance, for the time being, he would not recruit the leaders of the anti-Qi forces, and they would all be executed.

Zhang Zhengxiong immediately burst into tears, choked up, and his head fell deep into the ground.

……

In May, the General Faculty of Qi sent an edict to the southern prefectures of the Mutsu region, ordering the lords of the castles to lead their retainers and soldiers to jointly attack Shimono Fujiwara Hidego, and ordered their headquarters samurai to assemble in Huixing County, which is adjacent to Shimono Province.

Obviously, the General Institute of Literature believes that the two counties of Shanbei and Yuhu are like exploring the bag and taking things.

It was also promised that after the crusade against Fujiwara Hidego, the lord of the city with outstanding achievements could move the counties of Shimono.

And it is indeed as expected by the General Institute of Wen, in the second county of Yuhu in Shanbei, the small village gate has no defense ability at all.

It's just that I don't want to, in Huixing, Fujiwara Hidego will take the initiative to lead the army to greet him.

This is something that Lu Ning didn't expect.

However, it is a good habit that the main force is Ashigaru, and it is also necessary to send scouts to explore the way, so the ambush set by Fujiwara Hidego did not work and turned into an encounter.

Fujiwara Hidego has about 3,000 troops, and on Lu Ning's side, the samurai and ashigaru who are personally led, plus the samurai gathered by the lords of various cities, there are also more than 3,000 people.

The combat effectiveness of the individual soldiers on both sides is about the same, because almost all of Fujiwara Hidego's best subordinates pretended to drive the crowd together, and in the battle of Tateshi Temple, no one was killed or captured, and they fled back, and there was no morale, but it made Fujiwara Hidego's army fear of Qi people.

However, the Dongying warriors in Lu Ning's army have become extremely heroic because of the blessing of the Qi people.

In particular, after Lu Ning personally led nine heavily armored soldiers to rush into Fujiwara Hidego's main camp, the situation on both sides was immediately clear.

Lu Ning killed heartily, and now the battle between the Dongying people has no group combat thinking at all, and he attaches too much importance to individual martial arts, which is like a fish in water for Lu Ning.

On the contrary, the Central Plains civil war or the surrounding powerful countries against the enemy, fighting in formation, iron hooves, 10,000 people in line, random arrows, personal bravery, sometimes seem very small, and can only be a surprise soldier.

In the battle of Huixing, after defeating Fujiwara Hidego, he immediately entered the country of Shimono.

But Fujiwara Hidego disappeared instead, and no one was organized to resist at all, and it was the Tangze Mountain Castle that he had been operating for many years, but he was set on fire by him, and he didn't stick there at all.

This gave Lu Ning a little headache.

Needless to say, he knew that if he stuck to Tangze Mountain City, even if he could hold it for a while, he would not be able to escape after the city was destroyed.

After considering the combat effectiveness of the Qi army, he should have known that it was impossible to prevent the southern invasion of the Qi army by his own strength, so he saved his strength and may have hidden into the people, after all, he has a high reputation in Maoye, and he may have fled to neighboring countries, but in short, he will fight guerrilla attacks with himself in the future to harass himself, and at the same time, he will also use some strength to encourage the ministers of Kyoto to make up their minds to fight with the Qi people.
