At this time, 500 Yuanjiang Bei and 500 temporary troops had been assembled outside the city of Higashikawa Yoshida. Of course, at this time, the Luo family was in Tokaido, and in addition to the current military situation, there were also certain temporary garrisons in the various cities in the territory.

Unlike the Luo family's internal affairs cabinet, which was a bit difficult to set up a local organization, the Luo family's military cabinet at this time had begun to gradually integrate into various parts of the territory in accordance with the laws of the Luo family's own family. For example, schools and scouts were formed in each village, and peasant soldiers were regularly organized to participate in training, and after a long time, those who had retired from the army would also be assigned to serve as village heads.

Although these systems will be discovered by the surrounding Haoqiang, it is difficult to imitate the ordinary Haoqiang, after all, these are all Daimyo who need to spend a lot of materials and coins, and if it were not for the continuous support of the Luo family from Kyushu, such a system would not have been implemented. However, it is precisely because of the implementation of such a system that the Luo family's secret control of this territory in the Tokaido is getting deeper and deeper, as long as time passes a little longer, this place will become the foundation of the Luo family, just like the Luo family's own family Kyushu.

After teaching Maeda Toshiya a hard lesson, Roshi Nobuya and the others also quickly returned to Yoshida Castle. This time, Luo Shi Xinliang planned to command the army alone, so as to see how many catties and taels he had, so he said to Yamamoto Kansuke, the military advisor who had just arrived at Yoshida Castle: "Military division, after the army goes out, I can't rest assured that I can't leave the base camp, and I still need an old and capable famous general in the territory to control the overall situation. ”

"The future is important for military affairs. His Majesty took up this heavy responsibility. Your Highness can rest assured. Yamamoto Kansuke naturally saw the thoughts in Roche's conscience. It's just that this time, even if the highness in front of him is defeated, the impact on the local layout of the family will be limited, so he agreed to Luo Xinliang's request.

After leaving the military advisor Yamamoto Kansuke in the rear to preside over the overall situation, Luo Shinra took a thousand men and horses to the Guansuga family's closest stronghold to Yoshida Castle, and Noda Castle marched.

"Your Highness, Noda Castle is only guarded by a small number of soldiers, and no enemy forces have been found nearby." As he approached Noda Joichi, the detective in charge of the investigation in front of him had good news.

"The enemy seems to have abandoned Noda Castle. Who will take this city down there? Luo Xinliang looked at the generals and asked.

"Your Majesty, this time your subordinates will take the lead." Speaking was a fierce general under the command of Luo Shishinliang, Hyakumi Kenkan, who was brave in the last battle with the Imagawa family of Suruga Province in the royal castle, and has since been widely known as the Oni Hyakumi Kenkan. I saw that after the war, I immediately looked around, and I was arrogant and unyielding.

Although he also hoped that other generals under his command would take the initiative to take on this important task, so as to get the same training as the Ghost Hundred Martial Warriors, Luo Shi Xinliang was not easy to gain the face of the Ghost Hundred Martial Warriors. So he said: "Please ask all the martial arts to be virtuous, and I wish the martial arts prosperity." ”

So the ghost hundred martial arts and sages immediately led more than 200 soldiers and horses to go first. Luo Shi Xinliang led a large group of men and horses behind, and in the process of marching, he had been thinking in his heart why the Guan family gave up the forward position lightly, so he asked:

"Ladies and gentlemen, why did you wait for the Kan family to give up Noda Castle?"

"Your Highness, the other party knew early on that we would come, probably because they wanted to concentrate on fighting us." A retainer immediately said.

Luo Xinliang was still silent after hearing this, and always felt that something was wrong. When he was about to reach Noda Castle, he suddenly saw smoke billowing from the direction of Noda Castle from a distance.

"Huh? Didn't you encounter an ambush by the Kan family? Seeing such a scene, Luo Xinliang immediately quickly accelerated his march. After arriving nearby, he learned from the scout that it was just a false alarm, and it turned out that the enemy was setting fire to the city. And the ghost hundred martial arts and sages also came to the front of the main formation Luo clan Shinra in a wolf body.

"Your Highness, Your Excellency has fought so many battles, and you have never suffered such a loss!" He glared at Luo Xinliang and complained to Luo Xinliang, and the already small number of eyebrows on his eyebrows were scorched a few more, which looked a little funny.

Luo Shixin smiled in his conscience, but he didn't dare to express himself. comforted: "Okay, the next time we meet, we will be ashamed." ”

It turned out that when Onibai Takekane arrived at the castle, he found that Noda Castle was already an empty city, so he immediately commanded the army to occupy it. But just as they were about to enter the castle, Noda suddenly burst into flames. The fire was not large, but the smoke was particularly fierce, causing a lot of panic to the army. In the chaos, several of the temporary soldiers were trampled to death, which was the first drop of blood in this joint battle.

Seeing this scene, Luo Shishunliang couldn't find the whereabouts of the main force of the Kan family for a while, so he ordered the army to be stationed under Noda Castle and march again tomorrow. At the same time, detectives were dispatched to find out where the main position of the Guan Kan family was.

But the army of the Guan Kan family had no intention of concealing it at all, and its main force actually advanced to Luo Xinliang's army overnight, and set up camp on the wing hill opposite Luo Xinliang, looking down on Luo Xinliang's army condescendingly.

In this way, the two armies looked at each other from a distance on a small plain outside Noda Castle.

"Oops!" Luo Shi Xinliang hurriedly gathered all the generals to discuss countermeasures, and the sudden appearance of the Kan family's army put Luo Shi's army at a disadvantage. However, there are no wise and skilled people under him, and they can't answer a word like a stuffy gourd. At this time, Roche Nobuya finally missed the arrival of the military advisor Yamamoto Kansuke.

"It's better to retreat!" There are retainers who build yì roads, and they obviously want to give Luo Xinliang a step down.

Luo Shishira shook his head, at this time, the retreat will definitely suffer heavy losses, and it will make himself lower in the hearts of the military advisor Yamamoto Kansuke and the retainers, which is not the result he wanted.

"The subordinates will stick to the change, the family has enough money and food, and the back is Yoshida Castle, and the nearby Kondo family and the Saigo family are also vassals of the family, and His Royal Highness can also ask these two families for help at any time. The Kan family is not as good as their own family, and they are still miles away from the nearest castle here, Nagato Castle, and it is difficult to get the city's support in time. Takahashi said after thinking.

"That's the only way to do it!" Luo Xinliang also agreed: "Order all armies to tighten their alert, and every move of the enemy must be reported to his subordinates in time." "Continued confrontation is more beneficial to the army of Luo Xinliang, I am afraid that the army of the Kan family will take the opportunity to play a conspiracy.

But in fact, the next actions of the Guan Kan family's army were even more upright than Luo Xinliang imagined. After a day of confrontation, before dawn, the whole army of the Guan Kan family smoked. Luo Shi Xinliang saw the figures in the army of the Guan Kan family moving across the small plain, so he immediately said: "The decisive battle is today."

Then he turned back to the herald and commanded, "Herald! The whole army cooks, prepares weapons and armor, and prepares for battle. The generals came to the main formation of the Chinese army. ”
