Chapter 92 Mediation
Ask for recommendations, ask for collections!
————————————————
Hizen Matsuura Prefecture is mainly controlled by the Matsuura clan. To the north, there is the Hirado Matsuura clan, which later unified the Matsuura clan, and the current head of the family is Matsuura Mitsunobu, and Matsuura Jinshin, who has been widely spread to future generations for unifying the Matsuura clan, is still only a 13-year-old child. To the west is the Matsuura clan, the clan of the Matsuura clan, headed by Matsuura Masa, who was forcibly seized by Hirado Matsuura a few years later. To the east, there is the Hata clan of the Kamimatsunura clan, and the head of the family is Hatamori. The current Hama family is at its peak, from Iki Island to Higashi Matsuura, and even Minami Matsuura is the power of the Pora family, and Higashi Matsuura alone has an income of more than 50,000 stones.
As a member of the Wave family in charge of the Karatsu region, the nearly 55-year-old Wave Duo can be said to have done his best, and after seeing the Yobuko family gather a group of small heroes to besiege the Sashi family, he is keenly aware of the threat of the growing Huko family (in history, it was also the Hakata family that eventually destroyed the Huzi family). At this time when the Matsuura clan is in constant conflict, Hakado must save the only Sashi family that can temporarily suppress the development of the Yomiko family, until the Hakata family has resolved the disputes within the clan, and then free up his hands to clean up the Yomiko family. So at the last moment, he made a decisive move.
Under Miyajima Castle, in the open-air military tent, Yoko Otomo sat on the main seat with an unhappy face, and said angrily to an old man opposite, "Lord Hidaka, is this what Lord Hadodo means?" ”
"It's a bit abrupt, but that's exactly what the head of the family meant. Yuan-sama thinks that this is just a misunderstanding, and hopes that you can reconcile with this truce. ”
"Hidaka-sama, I'm afraid I won't be able to obey my fate. The Sashi family has repeatedly robbed the family's merchant ships and invaded your territory, it is impossible to be a misunderstanding, and I would like to ask Hidaka-sama to reply to Lord Hatado, this is already related to the reputation of the family, and even my own samurai dignity, and I must not stop there", said Toko Otomo solemnly. The surrounding heroes also whispered.
In this regard, I guarantee that the Sashi family can give you a satisfactory answer. Moreover, even the clan of this family, the Bodo people in Kishigaku Castle, have heard of this conflict, and have ordered the head of the family to mediate, hoping that you can follow the call of the family and end this dispute as soon as possible. Moreover, the Bodo people have decided to use troops against the Hirado Matsuura clan again in the near future, and they will need your support at that time, and it seems that it is not a wise move to suffer too much damage in this dispute", the old man said with a slight threat, and at the same time said a shocking news that the Bota family will use troops against the Hirado Matsuura clan.
The heroes in the military tent really stirred. You must know that the Hasaka family had just used troops against the Hirado Matsuura clan last year, but I didn't expect to use troops again so soon.
"Hmm", Huzi Daiyou pretended to be extremely embarrassed, frowning and thinking. In fact, he also had a plan to withdraw his troops in his heart. besieged the city of the Sazhi family for several days, and all the heroes and strongmen were damaged, but the Sazhi family still held on, and the Huzi family had already retreated under the constant threat of the grain road. Besides, this time it also greatly weakened the Sazhi family, and in the past few days of the Cage City War, the powerful families have greatly looted the surrounding towns, and even the fields have been destroyed; And the harbor of the Sachi family was also ransacked, although the black pot was carried for no reason, but as long as the Sachi family was weakened, it was a good thing, in general, even if the coalition forces withdrew now, it would be a mess left for the Sachi family. Finally, one of the most important reasons for Yoko's decision to withdraw his troops was that the Hirado Matsuura clan, who had been coveting the sea waterways controlled by the Yomiko family, seemed to have recently made some changes.
"The family can withdraw the troops, but the head of the Sashi family must apologize for the seppuku, and compensate everyone here for the materials worth 500 yuan, if the Sashi family refuses, then let's have a settlement," said Yoko Otomo later. …,
"Okay, let's convey this condition of reconciliation to the Sashi family in the next city, and at the same time ask you to temporarily withdraw the forces of the Waimaru to the gate of the Outer Pill Castle," the old man said calmly, as if he had been prepared for the conditions of Yomiko Otomo.
With the conditions of the powerful people, the mediation envoy of the Hakata family entered the Miyajima Castle Inner Pill. The head of the Sashi family, Sashi Dingman, sat silently on the throne and quietly listened to the words of the messenger. He was nearly middle-aged, and due to days of fatigue, his black hair turned gray overnight. At this moment, his heart was desolate, and after being besieged for several days, the Sashi family was exhausted, and in the battle of Waimaru, he lost nearly half of the samurai of his kinship, which was the heaviest war the Sashi family had ever experienced. The allies, who have high hopes, have not seen a shadow so far, and it seems that they cannot be counted on. As for the navy, in the news brought by the messenger, it was confirmed that it had been saved, and this should be the only good news he had received in the past few days.
Now, the city is full of wounded soldiers and lacks timely medical treatment, and most of these people will slowly die. In such a situation, there is no need to fight any longer, even if the coalition forces retreat, the Zuo Zhi family, whose vitality has been greatly damaged, will be gradually eaten away by the surrounding heroes. As the head of the Zuozhi family, Zuo Zhidingman has long had the consciousness of contribution, but the other party's conditions are too harsh, even if he apologizes, the family wealth left behind is just for the Zuozhi family to survive. This is something that he cannot accept in any way.
"Hidaka-sama, please forgive me for being rude. But the family can't accept such conditions, please tell Huzi Lao'er, let's fight again to the death", Zuo Zhidingman said in a firm tone.
"The Bo family guarantees that the territory of the Sachi family will not be reduced, and this is the letter that the head of the family has entrusted to you", the old man said as he took out a letter, "In the letter, the head of the family solemnly promised that the Sashi family will soon recover with the support of the family." ”
Sazhi Dingman looked at the contents of the letter carefully, his hands trembled slightly, and it was obvious that he was thinking fiercely in his heart. "Hey!" After a long sigh, Sazhi Dingman turned his head to look at the sky outside the council hall, "Then, the Sashi family will ask Lord Boduo in the future." ”
After some haggling, the eight-day war finally ended. The Sashi family paid the head of the family to apologize for their seppuku and compensate the Huzi family for 2,000 pieces of materials, and the rest of the Haoqiang who besieged Miyajima Castle for 200 pieces of materials in exchange for the retreat of the coalition forces. Even the Luo family, which was far away from the main battlefield and was responsible for the interception mission, also received compensation of 100 pieces of materials each. This was mainly proposed by the Yoruko family for the purpose of further squeezing the Sashi family.
Only 13-year-old Sazhi Dingxiu became the new head of the Sashi family, leaving him with a Sashi family whose strength has been greatly reduced. The heroes who besieged the palace city were also damaged to varying degrees, and even if they received compensation, it was obviously a bit more than worth the loss. The only winner is estimated to be the only one in the Huzi family, even if there is also some damage, with the support of a strong family foundation, it will soon recover, while the surrounding Haoqiang will take longer to recover. In this way, the Huzi family indirectly attacked the strength of all the powerful forces around it and consolidated its position as the second powerful in East Matsuura. Of course, the Luo family has gained a lot in this war. In terms of materials alone, they received 200 stone of grain and 10 swords from the Huzi family as promised to support them after the war, plus 400 stone of food compensated by the Sashi family (coins, swords and other materials have been divided up by the coalition forces under Miyajima Castle, and the Luo family had to choose grain as compensation materials), there are already more than 600 stone of food; In addition, it occupies half of the territory of the Ming Yue people; What's more, he ransacked the port of the Zuo Zhi family and obtained a lot of supplies and the first naval army of the Luo family. …,
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that guy to be really bold in Sazhi Dingman", in the tent of the coalition army under Miyajima Castle, there is now laughter and laughter everywhere. This is the last meeting of the coalition forces, and according to the agreement, tomorrow the coalition forces will be disbanded, and then each will return to his own territory.
"Yes, as long as the siege lasts a few more days, the Zuo family will definitely surrender, what a pity", someone immediately said. Everyone began to talk for a while.
As usual, Masarashi sat in a corner, listening to the discussion of the crowd while sipping the sake in his hand. Looking at the sake in the wooden bowl, Masara couldn't help but recall the records about sake in Chinese history books. In ancient times, there was only "cloudy sake" in Japan, and there was no sake. Later, some people added charcoal to the cloudy sake to precipitate it, and drank it from the clear liquor, so it was called "sake". After the middle of the 7th century, the ancient Korean kingdom of Baekje had frequent contacts with China, and it became a bridge for the introduction of Chinese culture to Japan. As a result, the Chinese technique of brewing koji was spread to Japan by the Baekje people, and the sake brewing industry in Japan has been greatly improved and developed. By this time, the art of sake brewing in Japan has matured, and sake is the most common sake. To be honest, this kind of wine, which was later regarded as the quintessence of the country, did not taste very good, and it could not be compared with the wine of later generations.
"Hahaha, His Royal Highness Masashi shines this time, and it really deserves to be the eagle of East Matsuura", at this time, the young master of the Huzi family, who was talking to everyone, found Masashi in the corner and immediately said loudly.
"His Royal Highness Masayo has won the award, it's just a fluke", Masayo, who had sobered up from his contemplation, immediately replied indifferently. What does this damn pedophile want to do? Could it be that he wanted to provoke the attention of other Haoqiang to the Luo family?
"His Royal Highness's family crest is really rare to see, I don't know who His Royal Highness's ancestor is?" , Huzi Zhengyou said unrelentingly. As soon as this topic came out, it immediately attracted everyone's attention, and even Huzi Otomo, who was on the throne, looked at Masayo.
"My ancestor once participated in the Battle of Genpei," Masarashi said. The earliest family crest used in warfare was in the Genpei period, when the Hei family and the Gen family used the red flag and the white flag respectively as a proof of military strength. Red is the color that is easy to boost morale, relatively speaking, white is pure and innocent, it is the color of the pure gods, it is said that the gods stay on it, and the army often uses it in the hope of the protection of the gods, and later developed into a white background, the upper book Hachiman Bodhisattva and other gods dyed flags, and the family crest of the Luo family is on a white background. Of course, Masashi is an authentic Han Chinese, so he played a sideshow, only saying that he had participated in the Genpei War, and did not say that he was Japanese. Sure enough, as soon as the words came out, the surrounding heroes suddenly became clear, no wonder the Luo family's family flags were mainly white.
"It turned out to be Genji, and it's really a famous family," Yokoko Taiyu said suddenly.
Zhengliang bowed slightly, and replied. I didn't admit that it was Genji, of course, you all think so, and I don't mind, at least in this era, it's a good thing to have a good blood background. As soon as Huzi Dayou's words came out, the surrounding Haoqiang looked at Zhengliang's eyes and suddenly had a different meaning.
The discussion about where the Roche family came from was just a small episode in the whole meeting. Soon the crowd moved on to other topics, and Masarashi was once again able to leisurely savor the bottle of sake that the Yobuko family had purchased from Hakata. Of course, he didn't know that a conspiracy against him was going on secretly at the moment.
