Chapter 894: Military Deployment (2)
In the large room of the castle tower of Yamaguchi Castle in the Zhou Defense Kingdom, Masara was discussing with his retainers about the new round of expansion of the Luo family and the adjustment of military divisions.
This time, the main ones who came to discuss with Masayo were Togo Heiji, the head of the Intelligence Cabinet, Kansuke Yamamoto, the head of the Kokata Cabinet, Yoshioka Nagamasa, the old Isono Membermasa, and the Ashigaru General Kato Danzo. After more than ten years of development, in fact, at this time, the Luo family has formed Zhengliang's own one-word style of deliberation, basically as long as there is no big problem, for Zhengliang's orders, the retainers often only think about how to carry out the task.
Just like the issue of military expansion this time, in the past, once Masayo planned to expand the army, the retainers of the Interior Cabinet headed by Togo Heiji would always raise some objections, but this time they were basically listening carefully. There are two main reasons for this.
First, with the continuous development of the Luo family, and under the leadership of Zhengliang, one victory after another, the family's territory continued to expand, and Zhengliang's prestige in the family increased day by day, and at this time it had reached a level that was admired by the retainers.
Secondly, with the continuous development and integration of the entire ruling system of the Luo family, the Luo family has almost adapted to this system, and the power is basically concentrated in the hands of the family governor, and the retainers are naturally more cautious.
At this time, the retainers were listening carefully to the family governor Zhengliang continuing to issue orders about the new military deployment of the various teams of the Luo family.
