Chapter 44: The Old Fox

To be honest, Shimazu Yoshihisa and Shimazu Suijiu don't believe it, Shimazu Iehisa didn't notice this, it's obvious that Kai Muneun has become a direct minister of the Kuroda family, which means that Shimazu Iehisa deliberately ignored this point.

What Shimazu Iyahisa did this for, and after thinking about it, they understood, wasn't it just to be able to boost the morale of the people, which was very low. Now I'll start by saying that the Kuroda family was defeated, and the cow who defeated the Kuroda family also surrendered the Kuroda family, and it was also on the other side, isn't this a slap in the face of Akakaku.

In fact, the Shimazu family is absolutely clear about this, which means that he himself does not have a lot of confidence that he can defeat the Kuroda family like Kai Muneun, he is just trying to find a way to save the current situation a little better. If it's just Shigeji Takenaka, he still has a little confidence, but now he is facing Shigeji Takenaka and Kai Zongyun!

Shimazu Yoshihisa squinted his eyes and pondered, and after a moment sat up straight, since Shimazu Iehisa already had this idea and was willing to fight with the Kuroda family, then what did he have to worry about? The three of their brothers have been felt by the Kuroda family from Satsuma Province to Hizen Country.,Behind me is the vast sea.,Do you want to continue to wander.,Do you still have a way to retreat?

In this case, even the Shimazu family and everyone else are very courageous and willing to fight the Kuroda family. Then he, the head of the Shimazu family, doesn't need to hesitate anymore, he fights and fights, and he is afraid that he should never appear in the dictionary of the descendants of the Shimazu family.

Shimabara is located in the southernmost part of Hizen Province, an area similar to a peninsula, and at the southernmost point is a small castle that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, where it was originally a cliff, backed by the sea, and there is only one road ahead, and this seemingly impregnable castle is the place where Amakusa Shiro Tokisada led the Christians in history to launch the Shimabara Rebellion.

In the north of the city, there is a large coastal plain, the land is very fertile, and the overall weather and hydrological environment are also very suitable for agricultural production, and this large area is now the territory of the Shimazu family.

The Shimazu family has been recuperating on this land for many years, and they have relied on their own strength and the gifts of this land to roughly recover to the level before the attack on Hyuga Province in terms of troops, and now the Shimazu family is preparing to fight their opponents on this plain.

Looking at the soldiers of the Shimazu family who had already prepared on the other side, Shigeharu Takenaka smiled at Kai Muneun on the side and asked, "Kai-sama, how do you think the Shimazu family will respond to our attack this time?" They know that their strength is far from ours, but they still set up a position this time, and I am afraid that there is fraud in this! ”

Jia Fei Zongyun was already a person with a sixtieth birthday at this time, but his shiny big bald head, bright eyes, short but burly figure was still very good-looking.

The Kai Zongyun we are familiar with, whose real name is Kai Qinzhi, is the pen head of the Daimyo Aso clan of Higo Province, and he is an important minister of the genealogy. After becoming a monk, he took Zongyun as his Dharma name.

In the third year of Daiei (1523 AD), the Daimyo of Higo Province Kikuchi Takeho besieged Tsutsukugaku Castle, and Aso Weifeng sent Kai to support, which was the first battle of Kai Kai. Kai was not afraid of tigers, and in the face of the army of the Kikuchi family, he came up with the tactics of night attack and ambush on the back road, defeated Kikuchi Takepo, and won the Hachichobu territory as a reward for his merits, and appeared on the stage of the Sengoku period for the first time as a military advisor.

In the 10th year of the Astronomical Era (1541 AD), the Shimazu family sent a rebellion against the Aso family by the Shimazu family, the lord of Mifune Castle, and the Shimazu family also sent an army to support it. The Aso family used Senjumaru (later the governor of the family, Aso Yui) as the general in chief, and Kai himself went to the crusade as a military advisor. In the Battle of Kikurahara, he defeated the rebellious coalition forces of the Shimazu family, and the Funabo was forced to be in the middle of the castle. Kai kinao was rewarded with the territory of Sencho of Mifune Castle for his exploits in the Battle of Kikuhara, and was served as the castle of Mifune Castle.

After that, Jia Fei shaved his hair straight and took refuge in Buddhism, and his Dharma name was Zongyun.

In the fifteenth year of Tenmon (1546 AD), Kai Soun's son-in-law, Kumaso Morimasa, under the mediation of the lord of Uto, Hongo Hakusho Mamoru, accepted the Shimazu family's internal communication and launched a rebellion against the Aso family. General Asu Wei was completely enraged, and after Kai Zongyun learned about this, he was also very angry, and took the initiative to lead the men and horses to attack Kumazhuang Castle, the residence of Kumazhuang Shouchang.

In the eighteenth year of Astronomy (1549 AD), after besieging the city for three years, Kai Soun's army captured Kumazhuang Castle, and the Kumaso Shouchang clan was all killed.

Most of the subsequent deeds in history have not appeared because of the appearance of the Kuroda family, so the Ogawa and other joint battles have not appeared, so the Aso family can also develop their own territory with peace of mind, even if they have resisted the Kuroda family before, there is basically no loss, this is the ability of Kai Soun.

Kai Zongyun took a serious look at the layout of the Shimazu family opposite, and then said to Takenaka Shigeji, he thought for a moment before he slowly spoke, "Lord Takenaka, sometimes, people of my generation use strategy, what they see is the comparison of the strength of the enemy and us, and what they think is to attack the enemy and save it, as long as we can mobilize the enemy and successfully gain the initiative to fight, we will win the first step." ”

Before, Kai Zongyun was able to win Takenaka Shigeji, that is, through his familiarity with his own terrain, on some small roads, or on the hillside, some suspicious soldiers were arranged, so that the cautious Takenaka Shigeji entered a Kai Zongyun ready, but Takenaka Shigeji thought it was a safe road, and then Kai Zongyun avoided the eyes and ears of the Tongxin people through his familiarity with the terrain, and launched a night attack on the Kuroda family's camp in the middle of the night, resulting in the defeat of the Kuroda family.

After listening to his words, Shigeharu Takenaka nodded, although what Kai Zongyun said was simple, it was indeed the key to making plans for marching and fighting, and it was also a place that was easy to ignore when the Japanese people were fighting in this era.

"Kai-sama, I like to use Yangmou, this adult knows, so in the analysis of the Shimazu family, I should directly find them for a decisive battle, after all, the family has an absolute advantage."

"So the Shimazu family may once again use the tactics of Orino Fushi in response to your direct attack, which is the most direct result of the Shimazu family." Jia Fei Zongyun said.
