Astronomical 9th December, morning. Today's weather is overcast and cold, and the change in weather has caught both the offensive and defensive sides off guard. And the Luo family even had to urgently deliver cold-proof materials. And the soldiers on both sides were also huddled together, without the atmosphere of life and death battles.

Compared with the cold outside, in the council hall of Tangjin City, there was a fierce confrontation at this moment.

"Under the refusal," Hinata Yamato Shouzi shouted loudly.

After receiving the message from Shinnosuke Akabane, Karatsu Castle split into three factions at once. Of course, the vassal Haoqiang led by the Hyuga family and the long family were reluctant to leave the country, after all, they had no foundation in Iki, and after arriving there, they would only rely more on the Hasaka family. The other part of Haoqiang, who did not suffer much loss, decided to accept the conditions of the Luo family in order to protect his family in order to protect the general trend. As the head of the family who has the most say in this matter, because the previous decision to unite with the Longzoji family has already caused the dissatisfaction of some retainers, this time it was defeated, which directly caused these people to collectively lose their voices in order to avoid suspicion.

"Hehe, Hinata-sama, since Your Excellency doesn't want to go, what's the point of you staying here? If it is not bad as expected, your territory has been occupied by the Luo family at this moment, right? Your Excellency doesn't plan to let me wait with you to fight to the death with the Luo family and help you regain the territory, right? Someone immediately sneered.

"I'm going to duel you!" Hinata Yamato, who was in his fifties, shouted loudly.

"Accompany you to the end!" The other party did not show weakness.

"Please don't be impatient!" As a peacemaker, Hidaka Soyoshi dissuaded him at the right time.

"Humph!" "Humph! The two snorted at each other.

There was a smell of gunpowder in Tangjin City, and in the military tent of the Luo family outside the city. At the moment, it was peaceful. After seeing Shinnosuke Akabane enter Karatsu Castle, Masarashi immediately dispatched Yoshida Shigemasa and Akuta to begin cleaning up the remaining small heroes in Karatsu Bay. These small and powerful family heads and main combat forces all ran into Tangjin City, making the Luo family's offensive like a bamboo.

Just as Masashi was waiting for further reports from Yoshida Shigemasa, it was this morning. A guest was welcomed.

"His Royal Highness Zhengliang, the poor monk is polite" Master Xuanzhi made a salute to Zhengliang.

"The master is polite," Zhengliang returned the courtesy. Masato didn't expect that Master Xuanzhi, who had been staying out of the battle, would come in person today. In fact, there are many temples in the whole of Songpu County, but these temples are basically dominated by the Zen sect headed by Genji, and the purpose of flattering is to concentrate on meditation and not participate in battles, so that Songpu County is exempted from the problem of monks and soldiers. But today, this senior monk who has been staying out of the matter came to visit, and the political conscience said that the other party must have something to do.

"I'm sorry to disturb you, and I forgot your Highness's forgiveness," Master Xuanzhi said apologetically at first. "Recently, the poor monk has received a lot of petitions from the people, and they are worried that this fight will affect their lives, so the poor monk has to come and find out His Highness's opinion on this matter in person."

It can be said that the Luo family suddenly sprung up. Let Matsuura County and even the whole Hizen be in a commotion. Even Master Genji, who is a master of Zen Buddhism and has a good relationship with Masahiro, has to pay attention to the situation of the Luo family. And now Xuanzhi sees that the Luo family will dominate in East and North Songpu County, and for the sake of the development of Zen Buddhism, Master Xuanzhi has to come to inquire about this new hero's views on Zen Buddhism.

"Hehe, the master is polite. In the next one, I have always admired the master. If the master wants to know the current situation of Lu Dao, he can tell me about it below," Masarashi replied with a smile. Since Xuanzhi took the initiative to mention such a serious issue, Zhengliang also happened to make a statement.

In general, Masara has no ill will towards the temples currently located in East and South Matsuura. At least they don't have monks. And most of them maintain the indisputable Zen cultivation method, which really saves Masato a lot of thoughts. Of course. When it comes to the management of temples in the territory, the time is not yet ripe. Therefore, Zhengliang still has no ill will towards these monks for the time being.

As for Master Genji, he is a high-ranking monk in Matsuura County and even in the whole of Hizen, and Masayo also intends to form a goodwill with him. With his support, the time it takes for Masarashi to gain the support of the people who newly occupy the territory will be much shorter. And every time this master appears, he will almost always bring good things to Zhengliang.

"I see" After listening to Masaara's description of the entire eastern and northern Songpu Prefecture, Master Xuanzhi nodded and said, "Since His Royal Highness has such a benevolent heart, the poor monk is willing to do his best for this." ”

"Master, what are you?" Masarashi asked suspiciously. Just now, under the banner of not wanting to create more deaths, he gave a way out of life to the people in Tangjin City, and now it depends on whether the people in the city choose to fight to the death or compromise.

"The poor monk is willing to visit the city in person, so that this catastrophe can end as soon as possible," Master Xuanzhi said.

"Then there is Master Lao," Zhengliang said respectfully. At this moment, he laughed in his heart, he didn't expect to get the support of this master at this time. In fact, both Zhengliang and the Bojia people in the city also know that the general trend is irreversible, and the two sides are just stepping down with dignity. Now that Master Xuanzhi is willing to personally facilitate this matter, then the two sides can be given a step down from power.

With Masayo's expectations, Master Genji entered Karatsu City.

At noon, Yoshida Shigemasa, who was in charge of cleaning up the rest of the powerful outside Karatsu, rushed back.

"Your Highness, it's really boring, there are only a few ashigaru guards left in those Haoqiang's families, and your subordinates have taken their territory without much effort, and now there are still some Haoqiang in remote locations who are cleaned up by Aguta," Shigemasa Yoshida complained.

"Hehe, what happened to those captives?" Masara smiled slightly, ignoring the other party's complaints, and asked.

"According to His Royal Highness's orders, the materials are temporarily sealed, and they will be counted after the arrival of Lord Togo Heiji tomorrow, and those powerful ashigaru are confiscated and put back in their respective homes, and those powerful families are temporarily escorted to the camp to guard them."

"Your Highness, did your subordinates directly take those family members to Tangjin City to persuade the defenders in the city to surrender?" Shigemasa Yoshida asked.

"No, I'll have to wait a little longer," Masarashi shook his head. He was waiting for news from Boda in the city.

In the early afternoon, the gates of Karatsu Castle opened, and out of it came Master Genji, Shinnosuke Akabane, and Soyoshi Hidaka.

When he saw Hidaka Soyoshi, the time finally came when the political conscience of Lu Daodong and Kitamatsuura County was unified by the Luo family......)
