As the parties concerned, Chiba Qinyin and Hai Jiulang were surprised inexplicably and didn't know why, while Sasa Narumasa seemed to be too lazy to explain.

He just helped the lord Chiba Qinyin get rid of the original father and son who were connected with the Hojo clan, why did he order Qinyin to live in seclusion at this time?

Sekihaku Konoe, who had been watching the play from the side, stood up for a long time and whispered in the ear of Hai Kuro.

"Lord Nagao Teruto, who has become the adopted daughter of the Kanto Governor, will also hold an inauguration ceremony at Tsuruoka Hachiman Palace in the near future."

Haihai Jiulang suddenly realized, and hurriedly bowed down.

The reason why Sasa Narimasa held the signboard of "Kanto Governor" and said something was because Nagao Terutora was the Kanto Commander.

Chiba Qinyin, who had been confused all along, also hurriedly knelt down with him.

After that, Sazuo Chengzheng asked with a smile:

"Lord Chiba Qinyin, do you know why the Kanto Governor punished you like this?"

Chiba Qinyin glanced at Sasa Chengzheng, and immediately lowered his head.

"I don't know."

Just now, he was afraid of the old man Yuan Yinqing, so he regarded Zuo Zuo Chengzheng as a helper, but at this moment, Zuo Zuo Chengzheng also became a threat to him, which made Qin Yin's sensitive heart frightened.

Chiba Qinyin is just a poor orphan, but his uncle Hai Jiulang is a sensible person, and hurriedly said behind Chiba Qinyin:

"In the previous battle of Karasawa Mountain Castle, the Chiba family had sent reinforcements to follow the Hojo clan to fight; Later, His Royal Highness Nagao Teruto summoned a coalition army in Ninja Castle, and the Chiba family did not participate; Even in the battle of Kokufutai, the Chiba family did not send a single soldier...... We and other country samurai, it can be said that the ignorant are fearless, and we have inadvertently offended His Highness Nagao and the Kanto Governor, please forgive me! ”

Sasa Naruma nodded:

"Please be sure to lead your army to participate in the Hojo Crusade, otherwise...... His Royal Highness the Kwantung Governor is likely to appoint a new governor. ”

Cheng Zheng's tone was calm, although he was threatening the other party, he didn't have the slightest aggressive momentum, but the calmer his words, the more he made Kuro feel that Yali Mountain was big.

"Hay!"

On the same day, Umi Kuro returned to his own family, changed his name to Chiba Yinfu, and inherited the governor of the Chiba family.

After staying at Moriyama Castle for a few days, Sasa Narumasa and Konoe left again and headed for Minami Tokiriku.

At the end of September of that year, Sasa Narumasa arrived at the Tateyama Military Port in Anbo Province.

The Tateyama Military Port was named after the very close Tateyama, but at this time the Tateyama had not yet been built, and there was only a small village under the Tateyama Mountain.

Sekihaku Konoe stayed in the main castle of the Satomi clan for a long time, and continued to hold song parties, tea parties, poetry parties, and so on...... Sasa Narumasa came to the Tateyama Military Port accompanied by the general of the Satomi family and the young lord of the Toki clan, Toki Yoriharu.

The Toki family is heirloom with the word "Lai", and Toki Lai Chun is the son-in-law of the famous Satomi family.

Like Masaki Yoshitora's father, Masaki Tokishige, Toki followed Yoshiyao, the governor of the Satomi family, to participate in the Battle of Kokufutai, and then led his army westward to besiege Odawara Castle.

Therefore...... Most of the generals of the Satomi family who stayed in the country were the sons-in-law and younger brothers of the governors of each family.

The young head of the Satomi family, Yoshihiro Satomi, stayed behind in Kururi Castle, the young lord of the Toki family of Manki Castle, Toki Yoriharu, stayed in Manki Castle, and the sister-in-law of Toshige, the governor of the Masaki family, went to Kyoto, but it was his younger brother Masaki Tokitada who stayed behind in Oura Castle.

I heard that Masaki Shizhong is very good at water warfare, but Sasa Chengzheng is a little interested in him, I don't know if he can make two moves under Hua Mei?

After waiting in the military port for more than two hours with Toki Yoriharu and Shiraki Yukihisa, Sasa Narumasa saw the mast on the sea.

Behind the mast, broad sails and a huge hull appeared one after another, gradually approaching the military port.

The Ashigaru of the Toki family and the Masaki family had already vacated the location of the military port, but as soon as they saw such a huge fleet, these Kanto hillbillies were still surprised and smashed their jaws to the ground.

Sasa Naimasa looked at the two large ships in the fleet with different natures, and asked Shiraki Yukihisa:

"I heard that most of the ships in the Li family's fleet are lucky ships, I don't know which is better or worse compared with Portuguese merchant ships?"

Bai Mu Xingjiu looked at a slightly smaller fleet next to the Li family's fleet, and his two delicate eyebrows wrinkled slightly:

"If it is a merchant ship, it is of course the best to have a deep draft and a heavy load. However, the merchant ships of the Portuguese fleet were longer and more flexible, which made them more advantageous when fighting at sea. ”

The Portuguese fleet was of course the one next to the Li fleet, and Sasa Naruma not only summoned the Li fleet, but also invited the Portuguese merchant Rafael Castello through the missionary Louis Floys.

Seeing that Sasa Chengzheng was silent, Shiraki Yukihisa added another sentence:

"But whether it's a fortune ship or the latest Portuguese merchant ship, it's more than enough pirates to sweep through Japan."

Sasa Narumasa smiled and said:

"I have never lost confidence in Huamei, you don't have to worry too much about this."

Saying that Huamei Huamei arrived, the lucky ship of the Li family's fleet was the first to sail into the military port, and it didn't take long for the flagship of Li Huamei to be moored in a convenient position to leave the port.

A small sampan was put down on the flagship, and it came to Zuo Zuo Chengzheng, and there was a little gray-haired old man standing on the ship, who was Yang Xien, the adjutant of the fleet:

"My admiral asks Lord Sazo to come on board to discuss!"

Yang Xien's old face was a little gray, and his originally wrinkled skin was also tightened.

Sasa Narumasa didn't have him, and immediately got on the boat with Shiraki Yukihisa, but Toki Yoriharu was somewhat hesitant.

According to Chengzheng's temperament in the past, he should have ignored Toki Yoiharu and left directly with Xingjiu, but today he seems to be particularly patient with Toki Yoichun.

After some hesitation, Toki Raiharu also gritted his teeth and got into the boat, and the boat rocked and landed on the flagship.

During this period, Yang Xi'en had the look of owing him eight million, which not only made Sasa Naruma and Toki Yoriharu unhappy, but even Shiraki Yukihisa was puzzled.

got on the flagship, only to find out that there was another mystery.

Li Huamei was already standing in the center of the crowd, opposite her was a Japanese samurai bound by ropes, and Raphael and the missionary Floys were also standing beside Hua Mei.

When the bound samurai saw Toki Raiharu, he hurriedly exclaimed:

"Lai Chun, let this group of Ming people let me go!"

He was captured by the Li family fleet for a few days, and he had already been said that Zhou Xiaowen had lost his temper at all, and he was now sick and rushed to the hospital, and he didn't care that Tuqi Laichun had no friendship with the Li family fleet, so he let the other party relieve the siege for himself.

Toki Laichun leaned into Chengzheng's ear and said:

"This is the younger brother of Gun Dashan, Zhengmu Shizhong, and he is also the general of the naval army of the Satomi family."

"Gun Daizen" is none other than Masaki Yoshito's father, Masaki Toshigeru, who is a well-known spear master inside and outside the Satomi family. However, Shimao's younger brother, Masaki Shizhong, gathered a lot of pirates in Opo Castle...... In Japan's Warring States, the so-called "water army" was basically just pirates loyal to the daimyo.

The reason why Zhengmu Shizhong was captured by Hua Mei was most likely because when the Li family's fleet passed through Opu, he was mistaken for a fat sheep by the pirates under Shi Zhong's hands...... As a result, they failed to rob, but were severely taught a lesson.

Previously, Shiraki Yukihisa said that the Li family's fleet was more than enough to deal with Japanese pirates, and it was really not a lie.

Cheng Zheng nodded understandingly, and went directly through the crowd and came to Hua Mei's side:

"I know he offended you, but it's better to settle the grievances, we still need their power, give face, right?"

Li Huamei is still wearing the mixed style of black power suit plus cloak and red peony, and when she saw Zuo Chengzheng talking in the middle, she flicked her cloak and left Chengzheng with a handsome and gorgeous back:

"Apologies! Money! No one is missing! ”

Hua Mei's words were spoken in Chinese, and of course the few Japanese present did not understand it, but Sasa Narumasa did understand it......

Tut...... Hua Mei, a black-bellied female admiral, not to mention the crippled pirates, and she had to pay money when she was arrested...... Satomi's water army, that's also called a water army?

Sasa turned his head and glanced at the pile of small boats following the ass of the Li family's fleet.

Obviously, the pirates didn't have long eyes to rob the Li family's fleet, and they happened to be beaten by Hua Mei, so they relieved their qi and relieved their pressure...... was caught by Hua Mei!

"Obey the Admiral's orders!"

Sasa Naimasa took a deep breath, walked to Masaki Shizhong's side, and pulled out the ribs.

Zhengmu Shizhong originally saw Toki Raiharu and Sazuo Chengzheng whispering, and he had some hope for Chengzheng, but when he saw Chengzheng talking to Li Huamei in fluent Chinese, he panicked.

Looking at the ferocious appearance of Zuo Zuo Chengzheng pulling out the ribs, do you want to kill yourself?

The corners of Sazuo Chengzheng's mouth hooked up with an evil smile, and he put the ribs on Masaki Shizhong's neck:

"Masaki-sama...... I'm Sasa Chengmasa, do you know what's wrong? ”

Hearing that the tall samurai in front of him was the famous "Hokuriku Lone Wolf" in Kanto, although Masaki Shizhong was afraid in his heart, his mouth was very hard:

"I don't understand what Your Excellency means."

"I mean...... If you don't apologize if you don't admit your mistake and apologize, this knife will cut your neck in no time. ”

Zuo Zuo Chengzheng frowned, his expression was indifferent, and the ribs in his hand were stable and motionless.

Although he was just speaking casually, Zhengmu Shizhong couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead.

…… Sasa Chengzheng's coercion is so strong?

Sure enough, it is not a loss of the world-famous "Hokuriku lone wolf"!

Shi Zhong gritted his teeth, but sent a mouthful:

"It's okay for me to bow my head, but my fleet was disabled by them, and I want to compensate!"

Sazuo Chengzheng smiled dumbly, took the ribs back and patted them in the palm of his hand, and vomited in his heart.

Li Huamei wants to compensate, Zhengmu Shizhong also wants to compensate, and Zuo Zuo Chengzheng is not an insurance company, where can he compensate them with so much money?

But...... Zuo Zuo Chengzheng has no money, which does not mean that Sister Jinghu has no money.

And...... Since the Satomi family's sailor is a pirate, let's do what a pirate should do.

Sasa Chengzheng whispered in the ear of Zhengmu Shizhong, saying that Zhengmu Shizhong was full of joy, and he would not pay compensation immediately, and also said that he would resolutely lead the naval army to cooperate with the actions of the Li family's fleet.

After that, a small military meeting was held on the flagship of Huamei, and a battle plan called the "Battle of Sagami Bay" was formulated.

Two days later, the combined fleet set off from the Tateyama military port with the goal

- Odawara!
