Chapter 657: Chaos Bunhou
Komurai Castle is the main castle of the Imanda family in Ono County, Bungo Province, Kyushu, and is a plain formed by the Ono River (a section of the river in the Rojijia family is also called the Roji River) that runs through the territory of Bungo Province from west to east, and the Ogata River, which originates between the mountains southwest of Ono County.
For several generations, Ichimanda relied on this fertile plain area to gradually rise among the wealthy families of Bungo Province, and gradually extended its power to the rest of Ono County, and finally became the powerful of Ono County on a par with the Lu Ji family. Komurai Castle, the home city of the Yamada family, has also become one of the most prosperous areas in Ono County.
And tonight, in this prosperous city, Irita Qincheng, who is temporarily living here, is experiencing a choice related to the life and death of Irita's family.
After Toji Kankata's two uncles and nephews also walked out of the room, Irita finally took a closer look at the person who had just been thrown into the room by Kato Duanzo. At first glance, he was shocked again, because this person was the family member he was stationed in the Oita Prefecture Mansion to keep in touch with him.
"Woo woo woo ......" At this time, this person had also woken up, and when he saw Irita Kinsei standing in front of him, he was about to speak, but immediately found that his mouth was blocked by a ball of thatch, and his hands were also tied behind his back with thatch. Irita immediately pulled out the dagger stuck in the floor and quickly cut the thatch for the clansman.
"Billet. Lord, run!" After quickly spitting out a part of the thatch in his mouth, the clansman immediately said anxiously.
"Is it true?" After seeing the anxious expressions of the clansmen, Irita's heart immediately trembled.
"My lord, the young master has defected to the Luo family. And assisted the Luo family to invade Oita County. You'd better run. Otherwise, it will be too late. The clansmen saw that the governor was still stunned and did not react, so they hurriedly urged.
He also escaped from the Funaikan in advance after receiving a letter from the family members in the area near Kumamu Rei Castle, and then rushed to Komuri Castle day and night to report to Irita Qincheng. Although I don't know why Lu Dao secretly entered the city with the help of the soldiers guarding the city wall of his family, he was knocked unconscious. But by this time, he had no time to think about it.
"Say, tell me, what's going on?" Irita didn't pay attention to the anxious expressions of the clansmen, but instead asked the clansmen about what they knew about the Dao with a solemn face. After basically confirming that the news that Fang Cai said was true. Instead, he completely calmed down. Now he must obtain enough information to determine the future fate of the Tian family.
"Yes...... That is true. After seeing the solemn expression of the governor, the clansmen were immediately stunned for a moment, and then told Irita Qincheng what he knew about the situation of the road and the content of the letters that other clansmen had reported to him, and finally handed over the letter to Irita Qincheng.
The more Irita listened, the more solemn his face became. He now finally knew that he had been overshadowed by the fat eagle. Previously, he felt strange why the other party obviously controlled part of his family's military strength and his sister-in-law, but he didn't take it out directly, so as to attack his prestige.
Now that I think about it, it's not that the other party doesn't want to take it out, but I think it's like that. I won't hit myself hard enough. So the other party preferred to wait until he announced that his sister-in-law had been killed in battle, and organized a united army to resist the strength of the Luo family. He took out his sister-in-law to make a fuss. And it's also making a big fuss outside the Otomo family's house. In this way, he was really mistaken for someone who secretly communicated with the Luo family, and even if he had a hundred more mouths, he would no longer be able to distinguish them. On the one hand, he deliberately waited for himself to make a loud noise, which attracted everyone's attention, and blocked his own back road, on the other hand, it caused the illusion that the family secretly assisted the Luo family to enter Oita County unconsciously, Luo Masara, you are really insidious enough.
"But now do you have any other options? If you insist on staying here, you will only let the angry Otomo family be captured, and then sent to the Funai Pavilion to wait for disposal, which is basically a dead end. Then there is only one way to take refuge in the Luo family. ”
Thinking of this, Irita Qincheng sighed, then stood up, walked out of the room dejectedly, smiled miserably at the two uncles and nephews of Toji Kanfang who were waiting at the door of the room, and said:
"What are you going to do next?"
The two uncles and nephews who were waiting nervously immediately looked at each other and smiled when they heard this. It's all in plain sight......
At the end of March of the 18th year of astronomy, in the small Mouli City of the 10,000 Tian family, Irita Qincheng summoned the 10,000 Tian family, the Usuki family and other wealthy generals in the city to their homes on the grounds that they needed to urgently discuss important matters, and then combined with the army of the Lu Ci family, which had been ambushed here for a long time, to take these people down in one fell swoop. Then he coerced these people to help them control all the troops in the city (during this period, due to the resistance of the 10,000 Tian family, the more than 300 10,000 Tian family troops from the family governor to the peasant soldiers were all slaughtered).
Subsequently, Isono Yuanchang, Takasaka Masanobu and others, who had received an urgent report, led their troops into Komurai Castle, and after a short pause and settled the captured wealthy clans in the city, the Luo family's army began to divide their troops, began to fully control Ono County, and waited for an opportunity to advance to the neighboring Oita County and Kaibe County.
When Masarashi arrived half a mile away from Funachikan and began to station troops, it had already been reported from Ono County that Isono Yuanmasa, Takasaka Masanobu and others had taken full control of Ohno County (including the Odaira Mine), and took advantage of the Saeki family in the southeast area of Kaibe County to transfer the main force to the coastal border to defend against Shikoku and its ally Ito family, taking advantage of the opportunity to invade during the dispute between the Otomo family governor, and took the opportunity to sneak attack Nakatani Pass, an important checkpoint connecting Ono County and the Saeki family's territory. The possibility of the Saeki family rescuing Ono County from both the coast and the Nakatani Pass at the same time was completely eliminated.
On Masa's side, after Nouehara and the rest of the Luo family's two armies annihilated the Otomo family reinforcements led by Usuki Kansu and Saito Harima Mamoru who went to rescue Kakumurei Castle, leaving Kinoshita Masanao and Andel to lead more than 3,000 people to continue to attack Kakumurei Castle and the Japanese Castle on its flanks at the border, while Masara led the remaining 5,000 troops to return to Oita County on the second day, and then began to sweep all parts of Oita County with a thunderous force, until they reached the inside and outside of the Otomo family's main castle mansion.
In the eyes of everyone in Bungo Kingdom, the Funachikan, which has not experienced war for many years, is facing a direct threat from the Luo family at this moment. Suddenly, the wealthy families of the Otomo family, who had not yet joined the Luo family's camp in various parts of Bungo, were in chaos. (To be continued......)
