Lu Ning didn't expect that when Rong Zhen said that Daqi had mobilized 100,000 troops and horses to march eastward, and this evening, the vanguard of the sailors arrived at Akita Port.

And in front of the two of you is the head of the civil officials of this Eastern Crusade, the Eastern Xuanfu Envoy of the Great Qi Expedition, and the Lord of the Wen'a General Hospital.

Moriichiro Ohno was only stunned for a moment, and then bowed down with joy on his face, "Lord Mori, Moriichiro's life will be parasitic for Lord Mori from now on, if Moriichiro betrays Lord Mori in the future, Moriichiro will die under the coldest sword!" ”

Although there was no foreign invasion and no revolt of the displaced people that swept the world, the county system and the legal order system of the Central Plains were gradually disintegrating, and local tyrants were flocking, which also meant that in fact, the imperial ministers and even the emperor no longer had the prestige to truly unify the country.

In the temple, the struggle for power between the Fuji clan and the emperor gradually became white-hot, the Fuji clan was regent when the emperor was young, and the emperor was in charge when he became an adult, but the Fuji clan would even persuade the young emperor to become a monk earlier, so that after the young emperor succeeded to the throne, the power was monopolized by the Fuji clan, and the Fuji clan was not satisfied.

Originally, when the emperor came of age, the Fuji clan changed from regent to Sekihaku, and the power was returned to the adult emperor, but now the Fuji clan is preparing to go one step further and make Sekihaku as powerful as monopoly, nominally Sekihaku assists the adult emperor, but in fact it is the same as a regent.

In addition to playing power games in Heian Jingzhong, the secretary of state is even more a corpse vegetarian meal, studying exquisite life to the extreme, such as the procedure of dressing, drinking tea, etc., etc., and does not care about the affairs outside Beijing, even if the world is rampant with bandits.

In the end, when it was discovered that the officers and soldiers of the conscription system had completely lost their combat effectiveness, they began to rely on local heroes to maintain local law and order, and these heroes did not have any concept of national and ethnic groups in their hearts, but only hoped to gain greater power and more territory.

Moriichiro Ohno in front of him is the epitome of Haoqiang, but his rank is too low, after all, there are few local Haoqiang who have no background, most of them are branches of the Jingji aristocracy, and there are those who give surnames.

Ichiro Ohno is obviously from the lowest level, and he made up a life experience and surname for himself, but there is no background and no chance, and it is difficult to go further.

After all, it has not yet experienced the Kamakura shogunate, let alone entered the changing Warring States period.

Obviously, he is not a person who is willing to accept the status quo, and in front of the invasion of the Qi people, the Qi Humanities General Institute wants to accept him as a "retainer", he was stunned, and immediately realized that this was a golden opportunity.

Dongying Mishima, I am afraid that the world will soon be in chaos, and he, who may take it, is the fastest way to ascend.

Therefore, when he swore allegiance, he was completely sincere.

When the monk Rongzhen on the side saw this scene, he could only sigh in his heart.

……

Moriichiro Ohno soon summoned the residents of Minato Town and announced that he had become a retainer of the Qi people.

The residents listened numbly, but they didn't react, their identities were forcibly taken by Moriichiro Ohno and became Moriichiro's "name" and "companion", which is similar to serfs, fishing boats, and fishing grounds, all of which belong to Moriichiro Ohno.

It doesn't matter who Moriichiro Ono is loyal to, they are still the names of Ichiro Ohno's territory, and they only hope that their lives can get better in the future.

When Moriichiro Ohno convened his people to give a lecture, the armor soldiers on the "merchant ship" also quietly disembarked and took control of several passages outside the port town.

When they saw these Hanmori Mori armor warriors, not only the residents of Minato Town, but also Moriichiro Ohno panicked.

He even secretly counted the number of these heavy armor soldiers, not much, not bad, exactly thirty.

Ichiro Ohno has seen military attachés wearing large armor in Akita Castle, but I'm afraid that in the entire Akita Castle, there are no more than thirty military attachés with great armor, right?

And now the big armored soldiers who come to Minato Town are just ordinary soldiers? Came to escort the Lord of the General Courtyard to inquire about information?

Moreover, the big armor of the adults of Akita Castle looks gorgeous and mighty, but no matter how you feel it, it is not as intimidating as the heavy armor of the Qi people, as if, these heavy armors in front of you belong to the battlefield of flesh and blood, and the big armor of the adults of Akita Castle is more suitable for a powerful and domineering performance.

And Lu Ning ordered a soldier to take off his armor and give this set of armor to Ichiro Ohno.

Ichiro Ohno was even more shocked, and he forgot to thank the main family.

Lu Ning received three hundred heavy armor soldiers, and of course he would bring some surplus armor to spare, and reward his own ministers with a set, which also showed the sincerity of his master.

And in the evening, under the moonlight, the dense sail shadows seemed to cover the entire sea, Moriichiro Ohno was frightened beyond words, and then he gradually realized what the so-called "Central Plains Eastern Crusade" meant.

……

The attack on Akita Castle was hardly blown.

Of course, the Qi army division was famous, and after besieging the city, he first shot a letter written by Monk Rong Zhen into it.

The letter said that the Qi people conquered the country of Deyu to clear Ezo, and the Ezo people killed and injured dozens of trading merchants in Hokkaido, Daqi, and fled south to Dewa and Mutsu.

Qi Tianzi was furious and sent heavenly soldiers to fight.

Deyusuke, Akita Castle Guard, and a group of officials and people do not need to panic, open the city to welcome the heavenly soldiers, Qi Tianzi has a will, and those who descend will not cure the crime of bewitching Ezo to attack and disturb this dynasty.

In Akita Castle, a fierce debate should have erupted, but in the end, the castle was not opened within the time limit, and the troops immediately launched an attack.

Although it did not carry bronze cannons, Akita Castle, a walled castle built with a large number of wooden structures and a small part of the earth, was naturally vulnerable.

After all, the defenders of the entire Akita Castle were only more than 500 people, and the people who had been temporarily organized had already dispersed in a hurry without engaging in the battle at all.

However, in the street fighting in the castle, the Akita Castle Commander Shonaga organized hundreds of samurai to resist, but they were quickly slaughtered.

The so-called escort envoys, like the pursuit envoys of Ohno Mori, are all foreign officials served by local heroes.

However, the chaperage envoy is like a village hero, and the county guard can appoint him, while the envoy can only be appointed by Kyoto or the local national guard.

The Shonai clan is the largest wealthy family in the Shonai and Akita areas.

……

After a short rest, at the same time, with the help of Ichiro Ohno Mori to find a guide, Yang Ye ordered the battalion as a unit, under the guidance of the guide, sent six battalions to disperse and attack, to the various gates near Akita Castle, if not surrendered, the city will be broken.

At the same time, four battalions of 2,000 military horses were left to garrison Akita Castle, after all, Akita Castle was the foundation, and once it was lost, the sea route was cut off, and the Eastern Expedition fell into passivity.

Yang Ye divided the rest of the military horses into two teams, each with five battalions, one went to the northwest to attack the private field gate, and the other went north to attack the castle wheel gate, both of which were very large and belonged to the two-story gate, and were only one step away from changing the name to the castle, in a sense, it was the county guard of Yamamoto County and Satsukai County of Dewa Province.

Lu Ning will lead his "Xuanfu Battalion" and attack Xiongsheng City in the northwest, which is the second largest city in the Dewa Kingdom.

In fact, Yang Ye wanted to lead his team to attack Xiongsheng City, and the Son of Heaven would attack the private field gate or the city wheel gate, but when he talked to the Son of Heaven about the strategy of attacking in private, the Son of Heaven opened Chrysostom to go to Xiongsheng City, and he naturally couldn't disobey it.

And speaking of which, although the Son of Heaven only has 500 men and 600 heavy slave soldiers under his command, his combat effectiveness is afraid that it can be worth several times the tribal army, not to mention, if there is still the Son of Heaven's attack, the combat effectiveness is simply unpredictable.
