Chapter 797: Landing Operations
At dusk, the surrounding mountains and forests are quiet, as if a monster is lying there quietly. In the distance, the sound of the sea crashing against the rocks of the sea can be heard constantly.
The place where Ahri and the others are at this time is actually the junction of the Naga family in the west and the Harada family in the east. Due to the large number of rocks and dense forests, the fields of the two families did not extend in this direction. Because of this, it has always been a sparsely populated place. It's also a convenient place to hide.
Although it is a convenient place to hide, it is not a good place for boats to dock. Because the shore of its coast is a cliff with a drop of seven or eight meters. Beneath the cliff is a trench full of undercurrents. It is precisely because of this that neither the Naga family nor the Harada family have paid much attention to the defense of this place, because they know that with the terrain here, the enemy army will never be able to land.
Unfortunately, they didn't know that the Luo family had already made rope ladders specifically for climbing. This time, Ahri and the others secretly infiltrated this place, in addition to finding a hidden camp for the upcoming army, they will also install a rope ladder for the army to land.
"It's coming!"
In an anxious wait, a fleet of ships finally appeared on the distant sea in the afterglow of the setting sun. Seeing this, Ahri and the others immediately lit a torch near the landing site. Guided by torches, the flotilla soon reached the vicinity of the landing site. Due to the fact that there were many reefs in the sea near the landing site, the ships with a deep draft could not get close, so this time dozens of ships had already become the main force of troop transport.
Under the cover of the setting sun, several ships were the first to dock. Ahri and the others immediately took out a bundle of rope and threw one of them on top of Xiao Zao below. Kohaya's Ashigaru immediately tied several bundles of rope ladders to this end of the rope, and then Ahri and the others on the cliff worked together to pull the rope tied to the rope ladder up. until the rope ladder tied to the rope is untied. After the rope ladder is quickly fixed at the selected location. Threw the other end of the rope ladder back down the cliff. Ashigaru at the bottom of the cliff immediately began to climb up the rope ladder.
The two sides continued to build fifteen rope ladders on the cliff, and the soldiers at the bottom of the cliff took turns to climb the rope ladder to the shore.
As time passed, the sunset finally sank into the sea, and the surroundings began to become dark, so in order to continue climbing, torches were lit on both sides of the cliff at this time, illuminating the cliff. The sound of the waves crashing against the reef on the shore under the cliff. The sound of the waves just drowned out the sound of the people as they climbed. At the same time, due to the remoteness of this location, the angle is tricky. Even though everyone lit torches, the Naga family and the Harada family in the distance still did not realize that a large number of troops were landing here.
In such a secret location, even Murakami Buji, Ahri and others, who were directing everyone to land at this time, couldn't understand how their lord found out about this place in the first place.
In fact, although the Luo family has not raided the territory of the Otomo family in recent years, it has sent a large number of scouts to infiltrate the local area every year, conducted a detailed exploration of the local terrain, and gradually transmitted the information obtained from the actual exploration back to the Luo family's intelligence cabinet. After obtaining this information, the Intelligence Pavilion personnel added this geographic information to the sand table map made of mud and sand in the council hall on the seventh floor of the Luo Family Academy. It was through this sand table map that Masahiro determined the landing location of the Sixth Route Army here.
At midnight, after a midnight landing. The Sixth Route Army of the Luo family, with more than 800 people, finally landed, and Murakami Takeyoshi and Wakabayashi Echigo Mamoru only left more than 200 people to guard the fleet that was still on the coast near the cliff. Responsible for guarding the ship. After resting for a while in the mountains and forests on the shore, they moved to another nearby mountain forest overnight under the leadership of Ahri and others, carrying the supplies of the army and lighting torches. They will lurk here while waiting for the fighter plane that the Lord Gongzheng Liang pointed out earlier will definitely appear.
In this way, they waited for four days in a row, and during this time, with the help of the Haidongqing who followed the lord Zhengliang's side, they knew that on the second day after they landed and landed, the third army of the family took Ichinoto Castle in Shimo-gun, Toyozen Province; On the third day, the first, fourth, and fifth armies of the family attacked at the same time; On the fourth day, the Fifth Route Army, where the lord was located, had begun to attack the Otomo family castle along the Beppu beach.
It's just that on this day, the inevitable fighter plane that the lord mentioned to them before still hasn't appeared, and even from the information sent back by Ahri and the others, there is no movement from the nearby lords. This made Takeshi Murakami, Wakabayashi Echigo Mamoru and others a little anxious. Although they could get the support of their own navy at any time through the coast, they felt a little ashamed to see that the rest of their armies had already gone out and they were still hiding here.
"My lord, Lord Ahri, they're back." Just when everyone was already a little anxious, Ahri, who was in charge of monitoring the movements of the nearby wealthy clans, finally returned.
"Good chance!"
As soon as Ahri came back, he said directly to Takeyoshi Murakami and the others, "The nearby lords of the Naga family, the Harada family, and other lords are mobilizing their troops, and it seems that the lord's army has approached the Otomo family's important town in Ami County, Luming Etsu Castle. ”
"Good!"
Seeing that the fighter plane really appeared, Murakami Takeshi and the others immediately said happily, "Since the fighter plane has appeared, let's discuss the next move." Immediately, under the auspices of Murakami Takeshi, everyone discussed the action plan.
Just when everyone in the Luo family was discussing, in Fulai City, Guodong County, Fulai Jianzhong, the governor of the Fulai family in his twenties, was kneeling on the tatami mat with a pair of pants at this time, his serious fingers kept tapping his knees, and his eyes kept flashing with a hideous essence, I don't know what Lu Dao was thinking. Instead, a woman lying behind him pretending to be asleep had her eyes slightly closed, and a trace of disgust flashed away from the corners of her eyes.
Next to the tatami mats, the almost naked Furai is playing with a woman who is also naked. Under his play, the woman's moans became louder and louder.
Fu Lai Jianzhong and Fu Lai Shizhi are two brothers, unlike other wealthy families where the brothers will always compete for the governor of the family and you deceive me, this pair of brothers has a very good relationship, and even their wives and concubines are shared.
"Alright, stop playing. You go down first. Just when Fu Lai was playing hard, Fu Lai Jianzhong was out of his mind. After hearing Fu Lai Jianzhong's order, the two women in the house quickly retreated.
"Brother, are you still worried about the invasion of the Luo family?" Fu Lai, who was on the rise, but was interrupted by his brother, was not angry at all, but said to Fu Lai Jianzhong with a smile.
"The Luo family is not small this time!" Fu Lai Jianzhong nodded and said.
"Brother, you're overly worried. In the past, the Luo family was not so invaded every year? It's just that this year, it is estimated that due to the drought, the time for the Luo family to come to harass has been delayed. Fu Lai said bluntly. Due to the distance between the places and the backward way of communication that could only be carried out by people, on foot or on horseback, the Fulai brothers did not know that other areas of Fengqian and Fenghou had also suffered from the invasion of the Luo family.
"No, it's obviously different this time." Fu Lai Jianzhong said, "This time, the Zong family actually issued a mobilization order to support Quicki County, and it is obvious that the Luo family's momentum this time is not small." ”
"This? It can't be that serious, right? In my opinion, this time the clan family is due to the drought in the territory, which has caused the number of people in the territory to decrease, which has caused a shortage of troops to defend the city, so I waited to go out to support. Fu Lai said bluntly, "Thinking about it, this time the sect family asked me to open a warehouse and release grain to relieve those people, which is really too misguided. ”
"No, this is the power of the Zong Family Governor." Regarding Fulai's honest complaints, Fulai Jianzhong has a different opinion. (To be continued......)
