Chapter 411: Shock and Deterrence

This winter has been much colder than usual. The low sky has been sunless for days. And today, the long-lost sunlight unexpectedly appeared.

When the long-lost sunlight shone on the second-floor terrace of the Kaijin Pavilion in Haijin Castle, Masara held the wooden railing of the terrace with both hands and looked up at the avenue outside Haijin Castle.

At this time, he was full of spirit and pride. Just half a month ago, Yoshihiro Kanri, the chief general of the Otomo family's coalition army, may have been standing here, and then looked at the coalition army under the city with high spirits, with the intention of swallowing fat.

It's just that half a month later, the original general of the coalition army was lying on the tatami mat and didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and the head of the Luo family, who was regarded as a dispensable small role, was standing where Yoshihiro had stood.

It's just that the war is full of unknowns, so even if he wins this game by luck, Masahiro still feels a little frightened, for fear that he will take a wrong step and lead to the demise of the family. So after a short period of complacency, he quickly regained the clarity of his eyes and once again set his eyes on the sunlit avenue outside the city.

On the avenue, a line of villagers with no end in sight is lining up along the road on the outskirts of Haijin Castle to enter Hizen. These people were the same local people who had been captured in various parts of Chikugo. Before and after entering Hibi, they will be arranged to live and work in various places in Hizen, and the sparsely populated Matsuura County area will be the main area for resettlement.

After entering the building, Luo Ming's army implemented a policy of robbing all the people, property, and food everywhere he went. This will put the local wealthy families hiding in the city into an extremely difficult situation in the upcoming spring ploughing season.

"The peaks are like gatherings.

The waves are like fury.

Mountains and rivers surface Tongguan Road.

Wangxidu,

Hesitation.

Sad Qin and Han meridians,

The palace and all the rooms were made of soil.

Xing, the people suffer; Death, the people suffer. ”

I don't know why, when he saw the scene in front of him, Zhengliang suddenly remembered such a term that has been passed down through the ages.

The red hole behind Zhengliang pouted his lips secretly, and he was very satisfied with Luo Ming's strange poetry. He didn't understand most of the things, but he understood the last sentence. It's just that he thinks that the current suffering of these people in the city is caused by the powerful lord in front of him.

"Guangqing, I heard that you didn't learn the Luo script very well in the Luo Dojo?" Just when the red hole light was secretly criticizing himself, Zhengliang's voice came.

"Ha Luha, that, Lord of the Kingdom, that one is too difficult to learn." was directly told by the head of the family that it hurt the spot, and Chixue Guangqing had to fight Haluha.

"Really? Don't you know that the promotion of the retainers of the family is linked to the new writing and language mastery of the dojo? Masayo's voice came again.

"Report to the Lord of the Nation. His Majesty knew the way. ”

"Hey! You've disappointed me so much. Don't you want to return to Izumo Province one day with your family's army? Masarashi said with a little disappointment.

After hearing Masayo's words, Chixue Guangqing's whole body trembled.

"Your Taro seems to be doing better than you in the dojo?" Masara doesn't seem to have any intention of letting go of Chixue Mitsukiyo. Still continued.

"Your Excellency has won the prize. The talent of the dog is indeed better than that of the subordinates. Akaki Mitsukiyo said something that seemed to be modest and seemed to be boastful.

"In that case, in the future, when the army of the main family enters Izumo Province, your son will lead the army in your place, and you will stay in the Hizen Luo clan dojo to study the Luo clan's words and language." Luo Ming said lightly.

Hearing this, Chixue Guangqing knelt directly on the ground, and didn't dare to make a sound again. Returning to Izumo, this is the greatest wish in the heart of Mitsukiyo Akagu, and it is also the greatest wish of his father, who has lived in seclusion, it is impossible to escape back alone, and now the lord of the country says that one day in the future he will point out the cloud country, what an ambition it is, and their clan can also inherit the majesty of the lord of the country and return to his hometown. Thinking of this, he had secretly made up his mind to learn the strange words and languages of the territory.

Looking at the kneeling Chixue Guangqing and the several retainers around him who were dodging because they had the same problem as the Chixue Guangqing, Luo Ming smiled slightly in his heart.

The scene just now was deliberately provoked by Zhengliang. In order to take the opportunity to knock on these retainers who don't pay much attention to the script and language of the territory. Let them realize that learning the new script and language of the territory is linked to their future.

In fact, Luo Ming didn't want to be so tight on these retainers, but with the increase of immigrants and retainers in the Ming Kingdom, the problem of language and writing inconsistency has become more and more prominent. This problem is easy to solve in ordinary life, but once it is on the battlefield, it becomes a fatal problem. Speeding up the promotion of Mandarin and simplifying Chinese characters was the best solution, which is why he forced it so tightly among his retainers.

In addition, the introduction of this new script and language also has a good effect on secrecy. Just imagine, even if some important information or even letters are obtained by the enemy's forces, only to find that it is a text that cannot be translated by the family, what kind of expression will they have?

Of course, not all retainers did not pay attention to this new script and language. So they got other information from Luo Ming's words.

Sending troops out of the cloud country? It's a few lands away from Hizen! Could it be that the Lord's ambition is broader than Kyushu?

For a while, those retainers who had just been complacent about the great expansion of their family's territory woke up one after another and sighed at their short-sightedness. And the retainers who were worried that the lord of the country would become complacent because he had expanded the family territory again, they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that his worries are superfluous, and such a family master is worth following.

Masara, who was secretly observing the changes in the expressions of the retainers, finally showed a smile that was not easy to be noticed, and then turned his attention to the victory of the gods, who were slightly lower in the retainers.

"Victory, are you dissatisfied with your family's arrangement?" Zhengliang's sentence was extremely lethal, and it immediately focused the attention of all the retainers on the person being questioned. And Kamidai Shengli, who is one of the protagonists, was also so frightened that he knelt directly on the ground.

"Your Majesty doesn't dare." Kamidai Shengli shouted with his head down.

"It's not that you don't dare, but you don't dare to say it, right?" Masarashi smiled and said, "The family has moved your family directly from Mise Castle to Ojo-gun, and has arranged for a large number of new lords to migrate from Chikugo in your territory. It's normal for you to have thoughts. ”

"Your Majesty doesn't dare." Kamidai Shengli said a little puzzled, he didn't know why the Lord of the Dao Dao suddenly said this, but as the Lord of the Kingdom said, he was indeed very dissatisfied with the arrangement of the Lord of the Kingdom for his family. Because after entering Chikugo this time, it was these generals who were actually responsible for personally implementing the policy of snatching light.

Although the captured Chikugo lords settled down soon after arriving in their new territory, their attitude towards the lord was understandable when they discovered that their lord was the one who had robbed them of everything in the first place.

In order to stabilize the territory and save their lives, these generals have to devote most of their family's energy to maintaining the stability of the territory, and because the family force is almost completely deprived, so many times, they have to ask the lord of the country to help, and the person who helps has the benevolence of the lord of the country. As a result, in many cases, the lords of the country became wicked people, and the lords of the kingdom became good people in the eyes of the lords.

In fact, the victory of the gods also knew the true purpose of what the Lord of the Dao Kingdom did this. The first is to let these generals come forward to loot, so as to confirm to the world the news that they have taken refuge in the Luo family. Let the careful thoughts that still exist in their hearts disappear completely.

The second is to let all the energy of these generals focus on the stability and maintenance of their own territory, not only so that their family can not have too much energy to think about other things in Hizen, but also take the opportunity to establish a good image of the lord of the country among the newly arrived people.

The arrangement of the lord of the country can be said to be understandable, but it is too dark for them to surrender generals. So it is impossible for them to have no complaints.

"Victory, you should remember that in the military tent outside Mise Castle, when accepting your surrender, the family once said, I hate betrayers." Zhengliang turned around and looked at the scenery in the distance and said lightly, "I promised you to let Shao Erdongshang go, because of your loyal loyalty to the old master, but by doing this, you have actually betrayed me once." ”

"Your Excellency, Your Majesty ......" Kamidai Victory was already trembling all over his body at this time. He found that the pressure on the lord of the country was too great.

"It's just that this is what I personally promised, so this betrayal is forgiven. But......" Masashi's voice paused, and his voice suddenly became cold, "No matter who I am, I don't want to betray my family again, otherwise, I won't give any more chance of forgiveness, and I will use all the blood of his family to punish this betrayer." ”

For the first time, Masato showed his domineering and cold-blooded side in front of everyone. This time, most of the generals who followed Luo Ming were surrendered, and when they heard Luo Ming's words, they all knelt on the ground without exception.

"Of course, if you are loyal to your family, your family will definitely not treat them badly, I know that many of you are dissatisfied with the victory, but all this is a test of your loyalty, and then it will depend on whether you can withstand this test." After seeing everyone's performance, Masato said in a slightly slower tone.

The Luo family is about to take the next step, and these retainers who have recently joined the family are all unstable factors, so Zhengliang simply cut the mess with a quick knife to deter these retainers. Judging from the expressions of everyone, the effect is still good.

After letting the retainers of the retainers who had been granted amnesty go, Masarashi returned to the council hall of Kaizu Castle, where Togo Heiji, who had come from Hizen, had been waiting there for a long time.
