Chapter 1092: In One fell swoop

After determining the way of Shangluo, and secretly making many arrangements, and at the same time, after receiving good news from various places recently, Masara finally gave the order to the people lurking in the country of Bigo.

As a result, Masarashi soon received good news from the Sugihara family, a neighbor of Bigo Province's Mihara Castle controlled by the Luo family, and the Sugihara family was controlled by Nabeshima Naoshige's retainers. After getting this news, Masara immediately ordered the army of the Luo family, which had been waiting in Mihara Castle for a long time, to attack immediately and officially go to take over the territory of the Sukihara family, as for the people of the Sugihara family, they will be sent to the Kyushu region to disperse and settle, but in order to avoid causing panic among the wealthy families in the rest of Bigo Province, the Luo family will also maintain the title of the Sukihara family in its territory, that is, the Luo family will select some puppets from the people of the Sukihara family to continue to run the Sukihara family.

On the afternoon of the same day that he sent part of his troops to take over the territory of the Tsubakihara family, there was another report from Honda Masasatin to control the Jimiya family, so Masara sent part of the army again to take over the territory of the Jimiya family. At the same time, at the same time, he ordered a team of troops from the two cities of Mihara Castle and Ichijoyama Castle to Hongo Castle of the Koshi family of Bigo Province to prepare to press the Koshi family to submit.

The Gu Zhi family was originally a small wealthy family between the Sushihara family and the Youdi Gong family, but now they suddenly learned that the two families as neighbors had changed internally within a day, and even more betrayed the Maori family they had previously been loyal to and announced that they would switch to the Luo family, which had already surprised the Gu Zhi family. As a result, in the evening of the same day, two groups of troops suddenly drove out at the same time from the nearby Luo's family's Sanyuan Castle and Ichijoyama Castle. Then he came directly to the outside of the hometown of Gu Zhi's family. The castle was surrounded.

This time. The Gu Zhi family was really dumbfounded, you know, in the past, because the territory of the Gu Zhi family was located between the Sugihara family and the Youdi Gong family, and the Sugihara family directly faced the Luo family's Sanyuan Castle and Yicheng Mountain City in front of the Gu Zhi family, the Gu Zhi family did not think about preparing to deal with the Luo family's attack at all. As a result, today was within a day, as the neighbors of the Gu Zhi family, the Sukihara family and the Youdi Gong family instantly switched to the Luo family, which surprised the Gu Zhi family and completely forgot that they had lost the external protective barrier, so they woke up when the Luo family's two armies arrived outside the city. But by this time it was too late.

So, after the envoys sent by the Luo family entered the city to make a promise, the Gu Zhi family finally betrayed the Maori family and defected to the Luo family.

But this was not the end of the day, on the second day when the Sugihara family, the Jimiya family, and the Furushi family changed the castle head of the castle in one day, the Sugihara family near the three houses also welcomed a guest.

In fact, the land in the southern part of Bigo Province was mainly divided between the five wealthy families: the Sugiwara family, the Arimiya family, the Koshi family, the Sugiwara family, and the Mori family.

The local power of the Maori family was seized by the Luo family after the First Battle of Itsukushima that year, and yesterday, the Sugihara family, the Jiji Gong family, and the Koshi family suddenly all announced their submission to the Luo family. This made the Sugihara family, who got the news that night, nervous, and as the governor of the Sugihara family, Sugihara Xing discussed it with the important ministers of the family overnight.

At dawn this morning. The Sugihara family has finally made a decision, in order to ensure the safety of their own family, even if spring plowing is about to begin, they must immediately mobilize the troops in the territory and prepare to resist the invasion from the Luo family, so as to buy more time for the family to think.

However, it was still a bit late for the Sugihara family to take such a move, and on the same day, a group of the Luo family led by the Luo family's iron commissioner Tadajiro also officially came out of the Ichishiro mountain castle near the Sugihara family and came to the Sugihara family.

Why did the iron cannon that belonged to the Internal Affairs Pavilion suddenly become the general of the Luo family's military division pavilion? This is also because Tadajiro himself was born in the Chugoku region. At the beginning, it was precisely because he failed to compete with his brother for the position of governor of the family, that he was exiled by his brother to Hizen Province in Kyushu, and thus met Masayo.

After following Zhengliang to gradually build a career, a few years ago, not only for the purpose of returning to his hometown, but also for the purpose of infiltrating the Luo family into Bei China, he secretly returned to the territory of the Bei China family, but only to learn that his family, under the leadership of his brother, was finally destroyed by the Zhuang family in the struggle of the wealthy families of Bei China, and when he returned to the territory that originally belonged to his family, he only saw a part of the clansmen who had been oppressed by the Zhuang family.

To this end, he secretly financed these tribesmen, and at the same time went to the Sugibara family in the border area between Bigo Province and Bichugoku. Tadajiro's family is related to the Sugihara family by marriage. Tadajiro's aunt was married to Sugihara Kinko, the contemporary head of the Sugihara family. It was precisely because of the reaction of the Sugihara family that after annexing the family of the elder brother of Tadajiro, the Zhuang family only killed all the males in the elder brother's family, and did not bloodied the other clansmen in the family.

After re-acquainting himself with his aunt and his uncle Sugimotoko, Tadajiro has maintained contact with his own people and his aunt over the years. However, during this period, Tadajiro has never revealed his identity as a retainer of the Luo family.

This time, when the Luo family officially began its path to Shangluo, it was also time for Tadajiro to reveal his identity.

Today, Tadajiro led a group of troops from the Luo family, and officially set off to the territory of the Sugihara family in the name of visiting his aunt. This time, Tadajiro set out with a total of three teams of men, each consisting of eighty phalanxes of spears and fifty no-sword samurai, plus twenty archers. The costumes are uniform, the weapons are uniform, and it looks like the escort of a daimyo of some kind of family.

"Since my father is visiting relatives, why do you have to bring so many people?" Tadajiro's sister-in-law, who had just been held by Masara for a hat kiss, followed Tadajiro's side at this time, and finally asked after he really didn't understand how to run a relative and bring the army.

"Because if I don't bring so many people, I'm afraid my aunt won't see me and wait." Tadajiro explained.

"Erchen still doesn't understand." Master Yan still said in a daze. Same with Tadajiro. Master Hiko is more suitable to be an internal affairs retainer. Obviously, it is not suitable to be a retainer of the Military Cabinet.

"There's still a lot to learn!" Tadajiro smiled but said nothing.

Sugihara Home Castle and Ichidenyama Castle are very close to each other. A rapid march reached the foot of Silver Mountain Castle, and the rapid order shocked Master Yan, who participated in the march for the first time.

"Haha, if there are tens of thousands of such a strong army, the world will be the lord and the ruler." Master Yan said excitedly.

"The world will soon be the lord's." Tadajiro said with a smile. As long as Shangluo succeeds this time, there will naturally be no Warring States Daimyo in the world who can compete with the Luo family, so the world will really soon be the Luo family, and it will soon be the lord of the government. Thinking of his family, because he had the opportunity to become a member of the Luo family's Shangluo army. He couldn't help but feel excited.

Just when Tadajiro and his son were still excited, Ginzan Castle, which was panicked because a group of troops suddenly appeared under the castle, and after a long while, the warning sound of the conch was heard from the castle. For this reason, Tadajiro's evaluation of the Sugihara family in his heart was immediately reduced by half, and his vigilance was so lax that if he had just launched a rapid attack, he might be able to take Ginzan Castle.

"Father, do you think my aunt will submit to my family?" Master Hiko, who had finally recovered from his previous shock, asked at this time. This time he came with his father, both to visit relatives. It was also to persuade the Sugiwara family to betray the Maori family and switch to the Luo family.

"Whether you are willing to surrender or not, it depends on what your uncle wants." Tadajiro said with a smile. For this persuasion trip. But he was very confident in his heart.

At this time, a figure finally poked out of the city, and I saw this figure shouting to the city: "Is it the military strength of Lord Masahiro of the Luo clan?" I am Sugimoto Xing, I have admired Lord Dazai for a long time, and I am willing to negotiate, and your army must not attack the city, a qiē easy to say. ”

Hearing this, Tadajiro thought that his uncle was stupid and attacked the city with this little army around him, which was obviously impossible. But in fact, this can't be blamed on Sugi Xingxing, after all, he just ordered to start mobilizing troops in the territory to defend the city in the morning, but before noon, the Luo family's army actually arrived, and seeing that the equipment of the army under the city was so unified and so majestic, he was almost scared. Subconsciously thought that the Luo family knew that he had mobilized troops, and mistakenly thought that his family was going to resist, so the Luo family was going to strike first, so he said so.

There was no need for Tadajiro to answer in the castle, and a samurai came out to reply: "This is Lord Tadajiro of the Luo family, and the upstairs is Lord Sugimoto Xing?" ”

"Tadajiro-sama?" When Sugi Yuan Xing heard such an introduction, he was immediately stunned, and after reacting, he immediately stretched out his head and shouted to the castle: "I am Sugi Yuan Xing, please come out and answer Tadajiro." Although he had the same name as the Tadajiro he knew, in order to confirm it, Sugimoto decided to look at the people first.

Hearing this, Tadajiro knew that he had to appear by himself: "Uncle, I haven't seen you for a while, is it okay?" ”

"Loyalty...... Tadajiro, is that really you? You...... This? When Sugihara saw that it was really the Tadajiro he knew, he was immediately a little confused, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Hehe, uncle, I'm really sorry, I haven't been able to inform you and my aunt of the fact that I am a retainer of the Luo family due to the request of the family!" Seeing this, Tadajiro also said with a smile.

"You? Ay! Hearing Tadajiro say this, Sugimoto Xing had nothing to say, but then he realized the most important thing at the moment, so he immediately asked, "Why did Tadajiro come with a large army, is it to attack his uncle?" ”

"Where, Tadajiro came here this time just to see his aunt and uncle, and as for these troops, they are just Tadajiro's guards."

"Who are you fooling?" Sugimoto scolded in his heart, but replied, "Tadajiro really has a heart, but Ginzan Castle is too small to fit so many people, so he will trouble Tadajiro to enter the city by himself." ”

"Yes!" Tadajiro immediately handed over the army to his command and asked them to camp on the spot, while he rode to the castle himself. Seeing this situation, Sugi Motoko finally put his mind at ease, and did not force Tadajiro to enter the city alone. Directly open the door and let Tadajiro, Hiko-mashi and a few guards enter the city.

"I think your aunt is very happy that you can come."

"I'm in trouble with my uncle." Tadajiro followed Sugimohara and took the opportunity to look at Ginzan Castle. The city was indeed a small city, with only two floors. The garrison is also relatively lax. Except for a few samurai over there, it looks okay. Wait, samurai? Tadajiro found the samurai out of place with his surroundings. Dress too formally.

"Who are those people?" Tadajiro asked.

Shanyuanxing's eyes drifted away: "It's a guest from China." ”

"Oh." Tadajiro didn't ask, and walked towards Honmaru with Sugigen Xing.

After that, Tadajiro and Sugimohara came to a tearoom in Honmaru. Sugimoto Xing is not a fool, naturally he knows that Tadajiro's so-called words to visit his wife are just an excuse, since Tadajiro has now directly assumed the identity of his Luo family's retainers, and also brought a team of troops, the purpose is obvious, so he simply sent the others away, and directly left Tadajiro to talk to him alone.

"Tell me, what is the purpose of your visit?" After both of them sat down. Sugi said immediately.

Tadajiro had to tell the truth at this time: "Actually, I got an order from my lord Dazai Shuai to attack the coastal areas of Bigo Province, and Tadajiro wanted to ask Uncle Ishita, what is the attitude of the Sugiwara family." ”

"I'll think about it for a night before I get a reply." In the face of Tadajiro's inquiry, Sugimohara Xing said after thinking for a while.

Subsequently, after Tadajiro took his sister-in-law to meet his aunt again, he was arranged to rest in the castle. After seeing the attitude of his uncle Sugihara, Tadajiro was not sure how the Sugihara family would behave. If you think about it too much, you just don't want to think about it, take off your armor and rest. The answer will naturally be known tomorrow morning. Soon after nightfall, my aunt suddenly came to the door. Tadajiro's heart immediately flooded with bad feelings.

"Tadajiro, you go quickly. Rixing is going to kill you! Tadajiro's aunt said anxiously.

Tadajiro was taken aback, and instantly calmed down, his army was outside the city, and it was impossible for Sugigen to be so brainless, so he immediately asked, "Auntie, what the hell is going on." ”

"When I went to look for Lixing, I heard him talking to those Maori warriors, and those Maori people wanted Lixing to kill you, and the reward was 500 stone of land near Kasaokama Castle controlled by the Chinese Maori family." Tadajiro's aunt said.

No wonder I thought those samurai were strange, they turned out to be from the Maori family! In normal times, Sugimoto Xing would definitely not dare to kill me, for fear that Li Lingzhi would faint. Thinking of this, Tadajiro sensed the danger, so he hurriedly asked, "Did the uncle agree?" ”

"I didn't hear it, so I hurried over." Tadajiro's aunt patted her chest and said.

So Tadajiro immediately asked Master Hiko to go out and watch the movement. After a while, Master Hiko came back and reported that the Sugihara family had not mobilized troops. Tadajiro was relieved: "It seems that my uncle didn't agree, aunt, you go back first, Tadajiro has his own plans." ”

Tadajiro's aunt saw that Tadajiro was so confident and didn't want to believe that her husband would fight with her in-laws, so she went back after saying a few words.

Tadajiro covered the quilt and lay on the ground: "Master Hiko, blow out the lamp and sleep." ”

"Father, aren't you afraid that the people in the city will kill you at night?" Master Yan said anxiously, and walked to the window to peek outside.

"If you are told to sleep, you will sleep, what are you talking about." Tadajiro's tone was unusually stern.

Master Yan had no choice but to blow the lamp, he didn't dare to sleep, and sat by the window with a knife in his hand. Tadajiro actually didn't feel sleepy at all, he knew that someone must be staring at this time here, as long as there was a little abnormality on the table, it might cause a mutation. So he decided to act unguarded, and wait until late at night to strike first. It was almost midnight.

Tadajiro opened his eyes: "Master Hiko, have you slept?" ”

"No! Father. ”

"Put on the armor!"

"What is my father going to do?"

"Kill!"

"Huh?" Master Yan was taken aback at first, but then he understood. So he immediately prepared with Tadajiro, and when he was ready, he woke up a few more guards and began to search the city.

"My lord, I've found them." After some searching, one of the guards came back with a fainted ashigaru in his hand and whispered back.

"Hmm." Tadajiro nodded, and then led a few people straight to the residence of the Maori samurai.

"Who?" Two samurai on duty from the Mori family saw the brilliance of the katana in the moonlight.

"Murderer!" Tadajiro wielded his long sword and slashed down the two samurai with the others, and then rushed into the house and shouted, "Kill all of them if you don't leave any of them." ”

"Hey!" The guards also began the massacre.

The sound of slashing quickly caught the attention of the city. It didn't take long for Sugi to come with his men, but unfortunately the heads of the Maori family had already been laid out at Tadajiro's feet.

"Tadajiro, what are you doing here?"

Tadajiro stood there and said lightly: "I heard that my uncle was a little hesitant, and Tadajiro just helped my uncle choose." ”

"You're so good!" Sugi Yuan jumped to his feet in anger, but he had no other choice.
