After the tie showed the posture of "people of the world", he really felt the pressure brought by this honorific title.

Every move of the kingdom under heaven must be watched, all the forces that do not obey the king are arranged into the crusade schedule one by one, and a little thought is an extremely long list, and all of them are written out to even make up enough for a day or two of updates.

Thinking about it this way, even though it is not yet forty now, there is a feeling of "seizing the day".

But it's not just stress.

There are always some dramas of "people with lofty ideals who look forward to the wind and vote" to make people happy.

Yamanaka Kanosuke Yukimori, a well-known restoration enthusiast in Kansai, came to visit and ask for support after learning that the relationship between Hirate and Mori had turned hostile.

Behind him is Katsuhisa, an orphan of the Shingu Party, as well as a group of retainers led by Tachihara Hisatsuna, Kamisai Mototsu, and Kamei Tseki, as well as local powerhouses such as Tajima Suijun, Nasa, Nihonsuke, and Oki Weiqing, a native of Oki Country.

In the past ten years, these people have had the experience of waiting for an opportunity to rise and fall back and be suppressed by the Maori family, and they have lost many relatives and comrades, and they still persistently hide and wait for the next battle. Judging from the results alone, they have nothing worth mentioning, but this spirit is really admirable.

coincided with the turbulent times of the Warring States Period, and there were countless daimyo in the world who were destroyed by the enemy, but there were not many righteous people who were so tenacious and persevering.

If the Imagawa clan really had this kind of heart, they probably wouldn't have to bow to the enemy before they could return to Sunfu Castle.

In short, Yukimori Yamanaka, who is the backbone and spiritual pillar of the team, is a well-deserved legend.

The deeds of the past years have proved his talent, and the reason why he has been defeated and defeated again and again is not that he lacks wisdom and fighting spirit, but that the balance of strength is too great.

At first, he met with this person with feelings, and he didn't expect to play any key role.

After all, the Nizi Revival Army adds up to two or three big cats and kittens, and it is already the limit to contain Yoshikawa Motoharu in the mountains.

However, the gift presented by Yukimori Yamanaka was pleasantly surprised.

"Over the years, we have been staring at the Maori family's every move, looking for flaws. So now I know that among the Mishima Naval Army, Murakami Tongsu and Murakami Takeshi have a bad relationship and are unwilling to live under them. The Maori Ship Admiral was the son of Matsumi Munekatsu, and was often at odds with his father. The contemptible people have a slight affinity with the two, and if the lord of the equal hand gives him the name, he will be able to successfully reconcile the two of them, and then take charge of the affairs of the Seto Inland Sea alone. ”

This proposal is heartwarming.

The wars of Kansai Ukita and Kyushu Otomo were all face-saving issues from a long-term perspective for Hitomi Honhide, while the safety of navigation in the Seto Inland Sea was a matter of practical interests that had to be considered in the immediate future.

He immediately approved Yamanaka Yukimori and promised: "If these two people are omitted and help me break the Maori army, he will return the Izumo country to Nizi one day as a reward for his great merit." ”

And so the action began.

On the other hand, the draw has mobilized most of the water forces and is ready to fight.

Within a month, news came back that both of them agreed to the internal matter, and agreed to suddenly change banners on the battlefield and fight back.

Hearing this, he gathered his troops and horses, and counted 200 Banner Naval Naval Naval Ships, 200 Awaji Naval Naval Warfare Ships, 300 Kumano Naval Naval Warfare Ships, 50 Tokugawa Aid Naval Ships, 80 Araki Auxiliary Naval Vessels, and 100 Miyoshi Naval Warfare Ships......

Divided into categories, a total of eight Nanban ships, 200 Antaku ships, 700 Seki ships, 14,000 sailors, mighty and mighty, from Izumi to the west, through Awaji, Shodoi Islands, straight to the land of Aki, Iyo.

The Maori family, who had already received military intelligence, did everything they could to send 800 large and small ships and 6,000 sailors to meet them. After all, they have been entrenched here for a long time, and they are unwilling to give up easily, although the ships, numbers, and firearms are all inferior, but they can rely on quality to recover the disadvantage.

As a result, President Murakami suddenly announced that he would change his position before his departure, defect to the Tie family, and refuse to send troops for Maori.

Sheng Sheng, the son of Nami Zongsheng, tried to imprison his father and seize power, and he was killed for not acting secretly, but it also caused a lot of chaos.

As a result, the Maori family was caught off guard, not only losing a wing, but also leaving some extra men to defend themselves, and the upper echelons were arguing over whether to continue to fight. In the end, the main battle faction prevailed and still went out to meet them, but only 580 warships and 4,100 sailors remained.

The contrast is even more huge, but Murakami Bukit on the Maori side took the initiative to accelerate his advance, occupying the narrow sea area between Dafei Island and Shiraishi Island in advance, in an attempt to limit the combat width and offset the enemy's numerical superiority.

On the morning of 12 November, the two sides began to clash.

As soon as the battle began, the vanguard of the Maori side, the direct troops of Noshima Murakami Bukitshi, gained the upper hand with a precise and fierce roasted jade attack.

Due to the inconvenience of turning, the eight Nanban ships, which were equipped with heavy guns, could not find the most suitable flank attack position under the hydrological conditions surrounded by the islands, and could only fire with their bow guns, which greatly reduced their efficiency.

However, the Nine Ghosts Jialong, who was divided into the right flank, immediately saw through the critical point of the terrain, and in line with the principle of "the general will not be subject to the orders of the foreign king", he immediately ordered the troops to abandon the plan of gradual support, but bypassed Baishidao and planned to copy the back road, and issued an order to send someone for instructions.

In this operation, he proved that his troops are a force to be trusted. It took only about two hours to quickly pass through a piece of sea that was only more than 100 meters narrowest and was considered impassable by Murakami Bukitchi and was not guarded, and it took only about two hours without a single stranding disaster, and suddenly appeared behind the enemy's flank.

By this time, a large number of ships had been damaged and sunk or had lost their combat strength and fled, but the water was spacious, and the Nanban ships began to find a firing angle and gave the Maori sailors a fierce return fire, so the battle was still deadlocked.

Then after the successful circumvention of the Nine Ghosts Jialong, it will become a fatal blow to change the situation.

Murakami Takeyoshi slowed down his pace with the intention of slowly draining the power of the large firearm and then moving on when it became too hot to be used. Unexpectedly, he was surprised to see the enemy situation in the rear of the flank from a distance, and decisively announced a retreat in order to preserve his strength.

The Maori sailors were well trained and immediately carried out their orders.

The evenly handed trolls, who were clearly inferior in quality, were powerless to hold them all down.

However, it was not an easy task for hundreds of warships to turn back to the division, and Murakami's direct fleet served as the vanguard, rushing to the front, and naturally falling behind when retreating.

Until the Nine Ghosts Jialong entered the firing range and began to fight, there were still more than a hundred ships that could not break away.

Among them was the flagship of Takeshi Murakami himself.

Two more hours passed, and none of the remnants who had time to escape were killed or surrendered.

The Tie Sailor Army won a great victory.

In terms of casualties, it was actually about the same, with a loss of 150 ships each, but after all, the two sides had different bearing capabilities, and Murakami Takeshi, who intended to die with the ship, was captured alive, which was the biggest general of the Maori Navy!

This person met with a tie and claimed that the reason for surrender was the reason, but one condition must be met, that is, the status must be the first among all the sailors, above the Nine Ghosts Jialong, An Zhai Shinyasu and others.

The reason is: "My Murakami Bukiti is the first pirate in Fuso, and I can't be ranked below the weak!" ”

Otherwise, I would rather die in the name of loyalty and bravery.

For this set of rhetoric, Tieshou Fanxiu thought for two seconds, laughed three times, and praised: "I have tasted the heroes of Murakami's Bukit, and today I have to see that it is true!" This kind of spirit is rare in the world! ”

Then he turned his head sideways and said to Maeda Xuanyi: "You must arrange a death method for him that matches his identity." ”

This turn of events surprised Takeshi Murakami, and his face instantly clouded and remorseful. It's just that the words he says are like water spilled out, how can a good man be embarrassed to retract it?

He only calmly went to death.

Fortunately, Maeda Genyi thought for a long time, understood the meaning of the lord, and said that it was still more troublesome to arrange a "worthy of identity" death, and it was necessary to prepare well, and it was difficult to implement it immediately.

Then Murakami Bujichi can continue to survive as a prisoner for a while.

Congratulations.

Then a large number of sailors rested for a while, and the next day they left for the Mishima area.

The so-called "three islands" refer to the three large islands in the middle of the Seto Inland Sea, straddling between Aki and Iyo, namely Nojima, Kurijima, and Innoshima, all of which are occupied by the Murakami clan, and their specialty is the tough pirates.

At present, the most powerful and independent Murakami Takeshi is Nojima Ichimai, who has just been captured; Murakami-dori, who was slightly adjusted by Yamanaka Yukimori, always belongs to the Kasujima lineage, and his strength is slightly inferior; The Injima Ichimai has a very close relationship with the Maori family, and has long been equated with genealogy of retainers.

Heite Tsuki came here, first met with Murakami Tong, and suggested that he change his surname to "Laijima" to his place of residence, in order to show a new face, and was gladly accepted, and from then on, this person is one of the Heite family's naval forces.

Then, the noh island, who was going to attack the leaderless dragons, unexpectedly expected that Motoyoshi, the son of Takeyoshi Murakami, who had just served Yuanfu, turned out to be a young hero, and he was a hardcore of the Maori family. The periphery stormed for two days, but it was fruitless and failed to land.

And the garrison of Indoshima is also solid, and it seems that it is not easy to capture.

The port of Bigo, where the Maori family is directly served, will obviously be more tricky.

However, Hirate Honhide was not in much of a hurry, and patiently ordered the army to assemble in Sanuki, intending to attack the soft persimmon of the Iyo-Kono family first, and at the same time to surround the point and send reinforcements and wait for Maori to send them to the door.

The current situation is quite favorable, and it is the best situation to deal with Kansai affairs.

Yukimori Yamanaka, who was in the center, was commended, but he himself was a little annoyed: "Although he succeeded in plotting against Murakami...... Now it's the main hall of the island, but Nomi Shengsheng's actions have been seen through by his father, otherwise he will definitely be able to defeat all the Maori naval forces in one fell swoop. It's a pity...... The Izumo country of the Niko family is also in the soup. ”

Hinote replied with a smile: "Since there are two adjustments and one is successful, then I will give you the promise of Izumo Banguo first." If you work hard in the future, it is not more than a delusion. ”
