In the council hall of Ogura Castle, Masarashi took the handwritten letter from Tao Takabo presented by Yoshihiro Shimazu, and then opened it and read it.

After a long time, Zhengliang raised his head and looked at Jiang Liangfangrong, the envoy of Tao Longfang, and said, "You are really able to do what you mentioned in the letter?" ”

"It's true!" Jiang Liang Fang Rong immediately replied affirmatively.

"Well, in that case, when you fulfill the conditions in your letter, it will be when the family hands over Ouchi Yoshinaga to you and signs a peace treaty with you." Masarashi then said, "Of course, in order to show your sincerity this time, I hope that you can restrain the Naito family's actions in the southern part of Toyoura County in Nagato Province, otherwise it will be difficult for me to ensure that I will fight against Nagato Province." ”

Since the loss of Akizaki Castle in the southern part of Toyoura County in Nagato Province, the Naito family has continued to increase their troops to Katsuyama Castle to the north of Akizaki Castle in an attempt to recapture Castle, so as to use Castle as a bridgehead to compete with the forces of the Roshi family on the opposite bank for control of the Kanmon Strait.

Naturally, Masarashi couldn't accept such a result, so as a precaution, Masarashi transferred the left formation, which had suffered a lot of damage in the Battle of Zichuan, to Akizaki Castle, so that he could take the opportunity to rest and recuperate, while being responsible for guarding this area for the Luo family. It's just that even if Masara is not afraid of a war with the Naito family, he has to take some countermeasures because of a series of actions by the Naito family, so Naito has pinned down part of the Luo family's military strength. If there is really a war with the Naito family in the future, it will even contain more Luo family troops.

This will greatly affect the Luo family's strategy in Fengqian. It is important to know that in the plan of Masahiro, the first to control the territory of the Otomo family of the Bunzen country and the Bungo country. In this way, the Luo family completely and completely controlled the northern region of Kyushu. That's his primary goal. After accomplishing this goal. The Luo family can calmly think about which direction to develop. At this time, it is obviously unwise to intervene in the Western Country region too early, if Tao Longfang can temporarily calm down the Naito family, so that the Luo family can concentrate on the strategy of the Bunzen Kingdom, this is naturally the best. Therefore, it was only at the last moment that Masahiro put forward the request to let Tao Longfang restrain the Naito family.

"After I go back next time, I will report this matter truthfully to the head of the family." Jiang Liang Fang Rong immediately said.

"In that case, then there is Lord Lao Jiangliang, come on, send Lord Jiang Liang back to the ship in Moji Port. We hope to hear good news from you as soon as possible. After discussing the matter of exchanging interests, Zhengliang immediately issued a send-off order.

"Then I won't bother the repair doctor. In the next farewell! "After that. Jiang Liang Fang Rong left in a hurry under the leadership of a warrior from the Luo family. In fact, he also wants to get out of here as soon as possible. For some reason, staying in front of Luo Zhengliang, he always had a feeling of panic. In fact, it feels like this is the effect of Zhengliang's deliberate coercion exerted by himself.

"It seems that Tao Longfang is really as recorded in history, and he is busy eliminating dissidents in the Zhou Defense Kingdom and the Nagato Kingdom, so as to completely control these two places. At least for a period of time in the future, there is no need to worry that Tao Longfang will send troops to support Fengzen Kingdom. It's just that he really can't think of it, and he still suspects that Qishan is serious. Looking at the figure in the corridor of Jiang Liangfang's Rongcang that was gradually moving away. Masahiro muttered to himself.

Historically, some letters sent by Sugi Shigeju to Yoshitaka Ouchi before the rebellion of the Otakabo were found in the Ouchi Building. There was a mention in the letter that Tao Longfang might have rebelled, so Tao Longfang immediately suspected that Sugi Shigeju was actually in a group with Sagara Takeren, so after Chikuzen Province killed Sagara Takeren and Sugi Xingyun, who took in Sagara Takeren, Tao Longfang immediately began to conquer the Sugi family in Bunzen, and finally destroyed the Sugi family. And now, due to the intervention of the Luo family, the Chikuzen family has been divided between the Luo family, the Qiuyue family, and the Aso family, and even Tao Longfang's nemesis, Sagara Takeren, also defected to Masahiro at this time, while the Sugi Xinyun clan was wiped out when the Luo family entered the Fengzen country ahead of schedule.

Looking back now, Masahiro would even regret it a little, if he had remembered that Tao Longfang would fight with the Fengzen Kunishi family, he would not have entered the Fengzen Kingdom in advance. Of course, Masahiro's thinking is a bit taken for granted. Historically, Tao Longfang sent troops to deal with the Fengzen Sugi family after basically controlling the situation between the Zhou Defense Kingdom and the Nagato Kingdom. If the Luo family had only sent troops to Fengqian at that time, it was very likely that they would have fallen into the whirlpool of entanglement with Tao Longfang, who had already controlled a strong enough army, and even the Shanjia family. On the contrary, it is better to take advantage of the fact that Tao Longfang is busy with his own internal affairs, and the former Ouchi family is in chaos because of the sudden death of Ouchi Yoshitaka.

Thinking of Tao Longfang, Masahiro couldn't help but think of Maori Yuan, the god of black. For this guy, Masahiro is very jealous. In history, in the Yoshitaka Ouchi era, this guy pretended to be a turtle grandson and hid in the shade of the Ouchi family to secretly accumulate strength. After the death of Ouchi Yoshitaka, Mori Moto pretended to be friendly with Tao Takabo, and then took the opportunity to annex the power of the original Ouchi family of Aki Kuniku one by one, and when he grew into a Sengoku daimyo who was almost equal to the Niko family of Izumo Province, he suddenly took off his sheepskin, showed his fangs, and took advantage of Tao Takabo to attack the empty rear of Tao Takabo when he was fighting with the Yoshimi family and the Niko family in Iwami Province. And now, the Ouchi family and the Mori family have previously extended their power to Bigo Province, Bei Chugoku and Misasaka Province after Aki Province, so if the Mori family swallows up the power of the Ouchi family in these areas, then what is it?

So after Masarashi learned that Ouchi Yoshitaka had been killed by the Taolongfang rebels, he wrote a letter in his own hand and sent it to his ally Niko's house. In the letter, Masara reminded Niko Haruhisa to pay attention to the Maori family.

It's just that Zhengliang's letters are counterproductive. At this time, after Niko Haruhisa learned that Yoshitaka Ouchi had been killed and the Ouchi family was plunged into civil strife, he was fantasizing about taking the opportunity to seize the entire territory of Iwami Province and even invade Nagato Province and Zhou Province. After seeing Masayo's letter, Niko Haruma thought that Masashi was deliberately pointing out a wrong path for the Niko family, so that when the Niko family was entangled with the Maori family, the Luo family could take the opportunity to invade the Nagato Kingdom and the Zhou Defense Kingdom.

Therefore, for Zhengliang's reminder, Nizi Qingjiu naturally won't take it to heart. At this time, he already had a plan in his heart to go out to Iwami Country and seize Iwami Silver Mountain. (To be continued......)
