Warring States Eagle

As the Luo family gradually gained fame, some of the military systems and weapons of the Luo family's military force were gradually known by the powerful and powerful people around them.

For example, the military power of the Luo family.Many powerful and powerful people probably know that part of the Luo family's army does not need to farm, but only needs to be used full-time for war.Although many tyrants also intend to imitate, but the family's resources simply cannot support such an army.Not to mention that like the Luo family, even ordinary ashigaru can be out of production, and even some samurai in their family have to farm.So although they knew a little about the system of the Luo family's military power, they couldn't imitate it.

Of course, they naturally don't know why the Luo family can do it, but they can't do it because they can't use all the resources of the territory with their respective systems. They just think that the Luo family is resorting to war , sooner or later the internal affairs of the Luo family will collapse because of this.Therefore, some powerful and famous people will laugh at the Luo family because of this. They are all waiting for when the seemingly powerful Luo family will collapse.

Another example is the siege weapon ladder of the Luo family.Since this weapon appeared on the battlefield, it immediately caused imitation of many powerful and famous weapons.But after using it in actual combat, they quickly paid less attention to this weapon.

how so?This is mainly because the castles and villages in the lands of many wealthy daimyos in the Wa country were built on high hills. Even the flat cities are surrounded by many trenches filled with running water. The ladders they imitated could not Adapting to these terrains (such as accidents such as being unable to be fixed on the ground, slipping, and easy to break), the power of the ladder will naturally be greatly reduced.The Luo family's ladder also experienced these situations in the initial stage.It was only after being continuously improved and improved by craftsmen from the Ming Dynasty.It was only then that its power was gradually brought into play.

Now on the top of the city.Looking at the Luo family's military strength that they clearly knew, but they couldn't imitate for some reason, Zhanbu Shang'an felt envious, jealous and hated spontaneously.

Just when the Luo family's army was constantly launching harassing wars against Xu Feishan City, the Zongxiang family's residence in the city, the Zongxiang family also received a lot of bad news during this period of time.First of all, the news came from Zhou Fangguo that the Ouchi family governor Ouchi Yoshitaka was killed by the rebellious Tao Longfang.This news was like a bolt from the blue to everyone.For a long time, the reason why the Munakata family surrendered to the Ouchi family was mainly because they trusted the governor of the Ouchi family, Ouchi Yoshitaka, and now it is better.Ouchi Yoshitaka, whom they supported, was killed, and they all hesitated for a while, really not knowing what the Ouchi family will do next.

Just when everyone was hesitating, it seemed that the other party had already been prepared, and the Luo family actually entered their territory in the name of avenging Ouchi Yoshitaka.

Everyone in the Zongxiang family was taken aback immediately.They immediately hesitated.Because the Luo family, who took Ouchi Yoshiko as the banner of righteousness, came to avenge Ouchi Yoshitaka, if they prevented the Luo family from entering their territory, wouldn't it be the same as preventing the Luo family from avenging Ouchi Yoshitaka?Then they are tantamount to being in the same party as Tao Longfang indirectly.What's even more hateful is that it is precisely because of the righteousness to avenge Ouchi Yoshitaka that the Luo family can unscrupulously tear up the reconciliation agreement signed with Ouchi not long ago, and enter the Ouchi family's territory with arrogance.

only.The Luo family used Ouchi Yoshitaka's revenge as an excuse to invade the eastern part of the Chikuzen Kingdom.It is Sima Zhao's heart that everyone knows.So Munakata Tsutsugu finally made the decision to fight against the Luo family with all his strength. At the same time, he also sent envoys to the nearby Akizuki family, Aso family, and even further away to the guardian Daisugi family of Buzen Kingdom to ask for help.

However, in the next few days, things were far beyond his expectations. First, the envoys sent to the neighboring Qiuyue and Aso families hurried back. After scolding them, Daiyan Munakata's family and Tao's family must have colluded to murder Ouchi Yoshitaka's killer, and directly drove away the Munakata family's envoy.

What made Munakata even more speechless was that not long after, the Akizuki family and the Aso family sent troops to the south and east of the Munakata family's territory, respectively. Two cities attack.The two cities of Banyuan Castle and Ishimaru Castle are the south and east gates of the Munakata family's territory. Once they fall, the hinterland of the Mongakata family will be exposed to others, and even Xu Feishan City will suffer from the enemy.

What Munakata couldn't understand was that the Luo family was clearly planning to invade Dongzhuqian. As the saying goes, Munakata's family fell, and the next ones to suffer would be the Qiuyue family and the Aso family?If the Qiuyue family is unwilling to join in at this time because they have always had conflicts with the Ouchi family, then what is going on with the Aso family?Soon he figured it out, Nima's, these two families are in collusion with the Luo family.

Not long after receiving the news that Qiuyue's family and Aso's family marched to their own territory at the same time, Munakata received another bad news not long after. It turned out that the Ouchi family's reinforcements stationed in Xufei City were wiped out.

What happened was like this. It turned out that after the Luo family's army harassed Xu Feishan City for several days in a row, it seemed that it was difficult to conquer Xu Feishan City in a short time, so they withdrew overnight the day before, and then Ready to turn along the coast and attack the Munakata family's territory from the north coast.

Xiangyue Zexiao in Xu Fei's city saw this, and thought that a great opportunity had come to defeat the Luo family's army, so she ignored Zhan Bu Shang'an's persuasion, and led hundreds of people under her command out of the city to pursue them.In the end, he was ambushed by another part of the Luo family's army that had been ambushing nearby early in the morning, and the part of Zheng Liang's army that had just left also quickly returned. Hundreds of people under his command were either killed or captured, and no one was able to return to Xu Feishan.

The Luo family's army that ambushed was naturally the ambush that Zheng Liang had hidden from the beginning.According to the original plan, Zhengliang's army was mainly used as a target to attract the Zongxiang family's ideas, so that the Zongxiang family relaxed their vigilance against other fortified cities.Of course, although it was used as a target, Zheng Liang also hoped to have a chance to win this fortified city.So in order to paralyze the enemies in the city, Zheng Liang also hid part of the army in the rear in advance, and then attacked Xu Feishan City with a seemingly weak army.

After several days of constant harassment, Zheng Liang found that some guards in the city had been harassed into a rage, and some soldiers even stood on the top of the wall and cursed at the Luo family camp outside the city.Seeing this, Zheng Liang immediately created the illusion of retreating overnight.But Xiangyue Zexiao was really deceived and followed out, so he was caught in Zhengliang's ambush trap and was flanked back and forth.

After the victory, Zheng Liang even sent someone to pretend to be Xiangyue Zexiao's broken soldiers to trick the city gate into opening.As a result, Zhanbu Shang'an, who stayed behind to guard the city, was also a cautious person, and he had to have Xiangyue Zexiao appear in person before he would open the city gate.However, in the melee just before that, Xiangyue Norixiao saw no hope of escaping and fought hard, and was beaten to death in the end. Where did Zhengliang go to find another Xiangyue Noriyo?So this strategy ultimately failed.

However, Zheng Liang would not make it easier for Shang'an, who was in the city. He first sent people to stage a "round-up" of the Luo family's chasing soldiers outside the city. "The prisoner" turned around and scolded Shang'an, the Zhanbu in the city, for being ruthless and ungrateful, saying that under the leadership of such a general, the soldiers under his command would only be sent to the battlefield to die, in an attempt to shake the determination of the defenders in the city.Afterwards, Masaragi had people shouting loudly outside the city, shooting letters into the city to persuade him to surrender, and other means to kill Ouchi Yoshitaka, the lord Munakata was accomplice to the murderer who killed Ouchi Yoshitaka, and he was about to be besieged by the surrounding tyrants, etc. sent into the city.At the same time, after learning that Qiuyue's family and Aso's family had begun to act according to the negotiated plan, Zheng Liang immediately "sent" the relevant news into the city.

Under the influence of repeated rumors, the morale of the soldiers defending the city was greatly reduced for a while, and even began to show signs of wavering.Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhanbu Shang'an immediately sent someone to ask for help from the Munakata family in Baishi City.
