Chapter 21: The Meeting of the Broken Temple
Lowe's hair exploded when he heard the name.
"What do you call him?!"
Luo Wei's gaffe startled Rokuro Mochizuki, and he repeated with some fear: "Zheng... Zheng Zhilong..."
"I'm a big grass! Zheng Zhilong? Li Dan! Hahahaha~~~ This is even better than Wang Zhi! ”
Luo Wei looked up to the sky and laughed, and patted Mochizuki Rokuro's shoulder heavily: "Good job!" Worthy of our 'Koya Little Tengu'! You're going now! Be sure to hook up with that Zheng Zhilong, at all costs! We need his sea power! He will definitely be a most powerful ally! ”
Rokuro Mochizuki was a little blind, but when he heard the lord shouting his nickname, he knew that the lord was really happy now! It seems that he is a blind cat this time and meets a dead mouse? But... I rejected that Zheng Zhilong!
Luo Wei spun around excitedly, he thought for a moment and then said, "In this way, Liulang, you go with Shihachi!" He's familiar with the pirates along the coast, so he's good to catch up with them! Immediately! Right away! Let's go! ”
"Yes! Lord! ”
Nezu Shiba's face was straight, and after hearing that the lord asked him to copy his old business, his blood surged, and he began to gear up.
Separately explained some matters to the two of them, and Luo Wei decisively asked them to set off overnight, for fear that Zheng Zhilong would find the Tokugawa family to do business.
Taking two deep breaths, Lowe tried to calm his excitement as best he could, as he had many other important things to do.
After that, Luo Wei listened to the Miyoshi brothers report on the progress of the "spy" planting, and what Anayama Kosuke saw and heard when he went to Oshu to deliver the letter.
Lowe remembers that when he used to play games, he chose Tokugawa Ieyasu. This old turtle had rebelled against several daimyo of the Western Army before the Battle of Sekigahara began, and this sudden blow was one of the biggest factors in the rout of the Western Army.
Among these daimyo who are in battle against the water, the most powerful is Kobayakawa Hideaki! In addition to him, Mototsuna Kuchigi, Yutada Ogawa and several others also have a share! Therefore, Lowe must place his own men in these armies at this time, so as to ensure that they will be countered by Lowe's people again at the same time!
"Humph! It's called a plan within a plan! Anti-China, anti-anti! ”
And Anayama Kosuke's trip also brought some information under the rule of the Oshu One-Eyed Dragon, as long as he has this information, Luo Wei's negotiations with Date Masamune tomorrow will have another layer of insurance!
And just when Luo Wei gathered everyone's intelligence and began to arrange the next plan, Xiao Luo Li over there had already scavenged some loot from Hattori's body.
"Gee, is this guy embarrassed to be the leader? It's not interesting to have such a little on you! ”
The little girl pouted dejectedly, and walked back with some bits and pieces in her hands.
Luo Wei swept Hattori Masa, who was still fainting to the ground, and felt a little sad for him in his heart. Because that guy has been picked up by the little girl at the moment, only a piece of crotch cloth is left fluttering in the wind....
But in the afterglow of the little girl, he suddenly saw a secret letter with the Tokugawa family crest painted in the trophy in the little girl's hand!
"Wait!"
Lowe stopped the little girl and took the letter from her arms.
Luo Wei turned his head and shook the secret letter in his hand to everyone, with a bright smile on his face: "Let's go, let's go back and talk!" ”
A group of people followed Luo Wei and walked away.
Hattori was lying there, silently leaving two lines of tears after making sure that Luo Wei and the others had gone away. The summer breeze blew through his body, soothing his pain and completely blowing his crotch cloth....
The content of the letter was indeed the same as what Luo Wei had guessed, and the general content was to win over the Date family, promising to let Date Masamune keep all his land after the war, and the request was to join the Tokugawa clan and contain the Uesugi family for the Tokugawa family.
"Humph! The old turtle is indeed the old turtle! If I hadn't been familiar with the trend of history, I would have suffered a lot of losses from this guy! ”
Luo Wei threw the letter he had read into the small stove where the tea was boiling, completely ruining Tokugawa Ieyasu's path to win over the Date family.
"So what's next.... It's time to meet our adorable one-eyed dragon! ”
On the second day, Luo Wei once again arranged a follow-up task for everyone. Except for Kosuke Anayama, who wants to lead Sanada Seven Shadow Martial Arts, only Russell the dog and Luo Li of Little Red Riding Hood follow him.
Rokuro Umino was sent back to Fushimi Castle to report to Masayuki Sanada; Yukasumuke was ordered to open a spear hall in the capital of the Tokugawa family, and used it as a cover to find information for Lowe; Kazushi was sent to the Uesugi family to deliver a secret letter of alliance; The Miyoshi brothers continued to recruit manpower for Luo Wei and trained secretly.
Watching his loyal subordinates leave one by one, Luo Wei had the illusion that "the world is in my hands".
The time agreed upon by Date Masamune was approaching, and Luo Wei and the others set off for a ruined temple on the outskirts of the city.
In the ruined temple, Date Masamune, who had arrived half a day earlier than expected, was leaning against a stone Buddha statue, and he seemed to be uninterested in anything.
"My lord! I found out that there was a big battle in the forest here last night! I found some shuriken there and blood stains! ”
Kojuro Katakura walked in in a hurry and told Date the news he had discovered.
At the end of the one-eyed dragon, there is a mighty bearded man standing there at this moment, it is another of the one-eyed dragon's cronies--- Itami.
Itami held a long knife in both hands, and his slightly narrowed eyes opened a slit: "People from the Sanada family? ”
Katakura Kojuro shook his head: "It's very similar to a duel between ninjas, and the strength is very strong." ”
"Oh? How strong? ”
Date Masamune was very unconvinced when he heard that someone was strong, so he immediately stood up and touched the six knives leaning there beside him with his hand.
Yes, Date Masamune's two balls use six knives, which is commonly known as the "Six Knife Stream"....
Katakura Kojuro thought for a moment, then pointed to Date Masamune's knife and said, "It's as strong as the three knives of the lord." ”
"Huh?"
Date Masamune's one-eyed eyes glared, and he grinned: "Hehehehe, I hope that Sanada family doesn't let me down." ”
Kojuro looked at the sky outside the temple and said, "It should be almost time." ”
As soon as Kojuro finished speaking, he heard a burst of laughter from outside the temple.
"Hahahaha~~~ Where is the Oshu one-eyed dragon? I'm Sanada Yukimura here! ”
"Humph!"
The corners of Date Masamune's mouth curled: "Arrogant enough, it's comparable to me." ”
With that arrogant laughter, Lowe and his followers stepped into the abandoned little temple.
Sanada Yukimura, Date Masamune. These two of today's top young generation leaders finally met for the first time in this less formal place.
"You're the 'No. 1 soldier in the world'??"
Date Masamune looked up and down with his one-eyed little white face that Hideyoshi-sama had praised.
And Luo Wei has long understood the shape of this one-eyed dragon because of the traverser, so he is much calmer than the other party at the moment.
But if you want to say that the most curious of these people, it is the little girl in the red hat.
This aunt was born without knowing what shyness was, let alone fear. As long as she is interested in something, it is estimated that the president of the United States will stand in front of her and pinch the other party's nose?
At this time, just as the two sides were looking at each other, the little girl had already walked up to Date Masamune, put her face over and carefully observed the other party's blind eye hidden under the blindfold.
Date Masamune tried his best not to retreat, but what happened to this girl in front of him?! Sick you! I'm going to hit the tip of my nose! Ay? But.... She's pretty fragrant...
Date Masamune was stared at by little Lori, and finally looked away and took a step back.
Lowe was amused to watch, and the two of them were in the first round of the first meeting. What is the saying? It seems that whoever takes his eyes off or speaks first is tantamount to falling behind.
However, what made the one-eyed dragon collapse was that he had obviously made concessions, but why was this girl still so close to him!? This! This, this, this! She's about to kiss me! What to do, what to do?!
At this moment, the atmosphere in the ruined temple became extremely awkward and weird. Katakura Kojuro and Ida looked at each other in real terms, and they couldn't understand which game the lord was playing? Could it be a negotiation strategy?
But a few people on Luo Wei's side are in the mood of watching the excitement, and they are here to watch Date Masamune's jokes.
After a while, the little girl forced the one-eyed dragon to her back against the Buddha statue step by step, and there was no way to retreat.
"Huh? ~~~”
The little girl stared at Date Masamune, and suddenly stretched out her hand.
"You! ... What do you want! I've put up with you for a long time! Don't overdo it! ”
The poor one-eyed dragon, the overlord of Oshu, did not even dare to open his eyes at this moment. He had already closed his eyes with a red face, and let the little girl do something to him.
