Under the repeated instigation of Zhengliang, Zhu Qinfeng once again embarked on a journey around the Warring States with the ambition of earning back the less gold he earned.

History cannot be stopped, even if Zhu Qinfeng does not sell muskets, the southern barbarians from other regions will also sell them, rather than blocking them in front of them, it is better to speed up their own development, so after seeing Zhu Qinfeng's ship go away, Zhengliang looked at Prussia, a craftsman standing behind him at this time.

"Can you, then, Prussia, tell me what you've done before?" Because in the process of coming to the Luo family's territory by ship, in order to get the employment of Zhengliang, Prussia had learned some local languages from some of the crew members of Zhu Qinfeng's ship, so now Prussia can barely communicate with Zhengliang in the local language.

"Honorable lord, I am an excellent seaman, I have served as the second officer of a merchant ship before, and I have also served as a gunner, I can personally fire and fire at any time, aiming and shooting, I am competent for all of this." Prussia immediately replied in a broken language.

"What? Aren't you an artillery craftsman? Masara originally wanted to learn about Prussia's experience in casting artillery, but after listening to Prussia's self-introduction, he suddenly had a feeling of being deceived. Depend on? Could it be that Zhu Qinfeng ran so fast for another reason?

"Artillery? Honorable lord, are you talking about cannons? Prussia asked, confused.

"Yes, it's a cannon, will you cast?" Masara immediately asked. He almost forgot that at this time there were already cannons in the West.

Speaking of the history of the development of artillery. Since the spread of gunpowder and firearms in China, artillery began to develop in the West. A wide variety of heavy artillery appeared in the 14th century. However, the accuracy is generally very poor. And the muzzle velocity is also extremely low. Around 1450 AD. In the West, iron bullets began to be used instead of stone shells, which increased the power of artillery shells. During this period, the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II even used artillery to capture Constantinople, which had stood for thousands of years. In the 16th century, Westerners began to call cannons with long barrels, and the length of the barrel was generally 16~22 times the caliber. Masato estimated that this was the kind of cannon that Prussia was talking about.

"Honorable lord, although I used to follow my uncle to forge cannons, but later for livelihood reasons, I returned home. So it's been a long time since I've been involved in the casting, and I've never been alone in the casting of cannons. Prussia said with a little modesty.

"Ha Luha, as long as you can cast, you can try slowly, as long as you can finally cast." Zhengliang immediately said.

So, Masara quickly took Prussia back to Kishigaku Castle, and then found Ander, Tadajiro, Liu Ye, and Kuniyoubei. These people are almost all the main persons in charge of the artisan workshop in the Luo family's territory. After solemnly introducing Prussia to the people, Masato asked them to go down and study it on their own, and Masato only gave him only one request, that is, to forge the first cannon for him within a year.

After disposing of these things. In the blink of an eye, it was already the end of June. At this time, the situation in Kyushu has undergone many changes.

The first is the Otomo family, after receiving a letter threat from Masayo and many sneak attacks by the Luo family's cavalry. The Otomo family's army in Higo finally withdrew from the outskirts of the castle, but Otomo Yoshikan still didn't seem to give up, and even let the army continue to camp at the border of the Luo family, making a posture of being ready to invade the Luo family's territory at any time. As for the Otomo family's other road, the army of Chikugo was beaten by Kinoshita Masanao and Yoshida Shigemasa, so they obediently withdrew to Toyogo. Perhaps Otomo Yoshikan also realized that in Chikugo, as long as the Luo family stubbornly defended the border city, he was absolutely helpless against the territory of the Luo family.

Ouchi side. Yoshitaka Ouchi's son-in-law was born in May and was named Yoshizun Ouchi. Since Ouchi Yoshizun was born, naturally there was nothing to do with the Judah Ouchi Yoshicho, so Ouchi Yoshinaga was sent back to Otomo's house again. This incident almost caused Otomo Yoshikan to send troops to the Ouchi family, if it weren't for the fact that he was confronting the Luo family at this time, he would have really done it. It's just that a series of unwise actions by Otomo Yoshikan during this period have gradually made the retainers in the family dissatisfied.

In addition, because Sagara Nagayui, who has always been good friends with the Ouchi family, was placed under house arrest by the Luo family, the Ouchi family had already sent two groups of envoys to come, hoping that the Luo family could release Sagara Nagawei. Regarding this matter, Zhengliang did not give a clear reply. Sagara Nagayui plays an important role in Masayo's next step, so Masayo will not release Sagara Nagayui in the short term.

On the side of the wealthy families of Higo, after months of fierce fighting, the army of the Sagara family was forced by the pressure of spring cultivation in the territory, and finally had to give up the siege of the Adamita Castle of the Omiya family, but when they retreated, they were pursued by the army of the Omiya family in the city, and were finally defeated.

It's just that the pursuing Omiya clan was caught off guard by the sudden attack of the Kai family's Funakoshi Castle, and even Kenshi Tiancheng was captured by the Tsukoshi Sect. Honganji Shangyi finally got a castle of his own. Another Ishiyama Castle is about to appear in Higo.

As for the Nawa family, the Kikuchi family, the Omiya family, and even the Kagoko family and the Ashi family, which joined later, these families were fighting each other over the newly discovered silver mines near Dojo Castle in Shimo-Ijo County, and the winner was still not decided at this time.

Of course, during this period, there was also an interesting rumor from the Omiya family. That is, as the heir of the family governor, Aso Weifeng will be grounded by Aso Weifeng, who got up from the hospital bed because of the disappearance of Kai's relatives.

Aso Weifeng can be said to have lived and died with Jiafei Qinzhi, and the reason why Asu's family has today's prestige is inseparable from Jiafei's pro-Zhizhi's credit, and suddenly learned that Jiafei Qinzhi disappeared because of the fault of Asu Weijiang, he jumped up directly from the hospital bed and scolded Asu Weijiang fiercely, and not only grounded Asu Weijiang afterwards, but even deprived Aso Weijiang of all his powers. This led to a feud between the two fathers and sons.

"It seems that the dark chess that was arranged after the fat should be activated." Masahiro muttered to himself.

But just as Masarashi was about to implement his next plan, the weather suddenly became weird.

This was followed by several torrential rains, followed by a typhoon that swept across the coast of Kyushu. After the typhoon passed, a hail fell.

Oh my God, it was hail in late spring and early summer, and it was like a June frost.

The sudden and strange weather caught everyone off guard. It is said that after several heavy rains in a row, they had to prepare to retreat to Bungo, but on the way home, they encountered a flash flood. And they ended up being tragic. It is said that less than 500 people eventually fled back to Bungo, and the rest of the 500 or so did not know whether they were drowned in the torrent or washed there. (To be continued......)
