After the beginning of spring, perhaps feeling the great threat of the Kuroda family, the Maori family immediately raised 5,000 troops after the completion of the spring ploughing in the territory, and with the cooperation of the Maori family's police and naval forces, they quickly crossed the Tsushima Strait and went to attack the Bunzen Province of the Otomo family.

Because the Maori family kept this matter relatively secret beforehand, except for the Kuroda family, who got a little news that the Maori family was going to go out through the investigation of the concentric people, the surrounding forces really didn't know about it.

Because they only said that they had received a piece of news, they did not know the specific direction of the Maori family's attack, so the Kuroda family also stockpiled an additional 2,000 troops in China to prevent a possible attack by the Maori family.

The Otomo family was reluctantly attacked by the Maori family again, and the rescue gun of Hizen Province and Ogura Castle, together with the fortress of Toyozen Province, fell in only two days. At this time, Otomo Sorin's had just received the news of the Maori family's invasion, but Otomo Sorin's did not panic this time, and after gathering nearly 14,000 people, he went to Kyoto-gun, Toyozen Province to fight with the Maori family.

But this is also thanks to the fact that the Maori family is attacking the Kyushu of the Otomo family, and if it is the Izumo country of the Niko family, it is estimated that it will hit the nest of Niko Yoshihisa, and the Niko family will know about it!

The news of the Maori family's trip to Kyushu soon spread throughout the western country and caused a chain reaction.

Perhaps because he felt that the Maori family's dispatch to Kyushu was a good opportunity, the Niko family rarely made a quick decision, with the family governor Niko Yoshihisa as the general general, Ushio Yukiyo, Santoya Kufu, Saddle Chi Right Masuke, Yaba Koho, Honjo Tsunemitsu, Akigami Munobu and others all followed the battle, of course, Kuroda Vocational High School's good friend, Izumo no Kayama Yukimori.

The army of 8,000 people of the Niko family drove straight along the way, and smoothly entered Iwami Province, aiming at the most essence of Iwami Province - Iwami Silver Mountain. Yoshimi Masayori, the lord of Iwami Province, immediately gathered a 1,000-army army to meet the attack after receiving the news that the Niko family was coming to attack, and at the same time sent people to ask for help from the Mori family.

The army of the Yoshimi family and the army of the Niko family met in the Kamitsu area of Naga County, Iwami Province, and in Yoshimi Masanori's feeling, the Niko family should be the kind of emaciated camel that is strong on the outside and dry in the middle, and he may be able to defeat the Niko family before the reinforcements of the Maori family come, so he decisively led people out of the city to fight.

The Kamitsu area was unusually lively at this time, and after the two sides of the Niko family and the Yoshimi family met, they immediately opened their formation. Just like Yoshimi Masarari thought, the Niko family is a skinny camel after all, but he ignores one point, after all, the skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and the Niko family has many samurai, and it is also an absolute advantage in numbers. After an hour of fighting, the Yoshimi family left 400 corpses behind, and after 3500 people were scattered, more than 600 people fled in a hurry into Hamada Castle, the residence of Yoshimi Masanori.

At this time, there were only more than 600 people in Hamada Castle, and there was no need for these 8,000 people to besiege together, at the suggestion of Yukimori in the mountains, the Niko family divided 3,000 people, first laid down the defenseless Iwami Silver Mountain, and then sent people back to Izumo Province first to transport all the silver that had not had time to be transported away from the Silver Mountain.

What I want to say here is that because winter has just passed, Iwami Ginzan has stored the silver that has been smelted for half a year in winter, as well as some ore, and this time all of them are cheaper than the Niko family.

After that, the 2,000-strong army began to sweep the Iwami country, and the powerful wealthy family of Iwami country, Fukuya Takakane, raised the anti-flag at this time, and led the people to join the command of the Nizi family.

How could the Maori family sit back and watch Iwami Silver Mountain be taken away, Yoshikawa Motoharu, who was in charge of the mountain **, immediately organized an army of three thousand, Yoshikawa Motoharu deserved to be a famous general in history, and it took only one day to complete the process from assembling the army to marching into Iwami Province, and for all this, the Niko family was a little caught off guard.

Tachihara Hisatsuna, who led the partial division, had gathered 3,100 people at this time, and after receiving the news that Yoshikawa Motoharu had entered Iwami Province, he still decided to join the large army, which would be safer.

And at this time, in the camp of the Izumo country's army, Yamanaka Yukimori asked to see Niko Yoshihisa, and the two had a conversation that lasted for an hour, no one knew what was going on in the big tent, in short, it wasn't a matter of affection!

Anyway, after coming out, Yamanaka Yumori was more excited, but after seeing others again, he still hid his expression and didn't let anyone see his expression just now.

Just after Yamanaka Yukimori asked to meet with Niko Yoshihisa, the army of the Niko family withdrew the siege of Hamada Castle and retreated five miles to a small hill called Hoshitaka Mountain to defend it, completely as if they were afraid of the Mori family.

Yoshikawa Motoharu came to Hamada Castle with a large army the next day, and Yoshimi Masariri personally went out of the castle to greet him, and after learning the movements of the Niko family from Yoshimi Masarari, he was still very proud. Seeing that there was no 8,000 army of the Nizi family, after hearing that he was coming, he immediately retreated, and made a defensive posture, he was a little prestigious!

Last year's battle of Sentewa Castle was definitely the biggest shame in Yoshikawa Motoharu's life, he was killed by Kuroda Vocational High School to lose his armor and lose his soldiers, but fortunately he made up for it in Matsuyama Castle and rescued most of the Maori army besieged by the water, otherwise he would really be hard to say.

Fortunately, in that big battle, his brother Kobayakawa Takakei's naval army lost more completely in Bizen Province than himself, so Yoshikawa Motoharu was still psychologically passable, but he always wanted to find an opportunity to save his reputation as a famous general in the western country.

This time, the Nizi family, although it is a behemoth in his eyes, but a vulnerable existence, actually took the initiative to find the sun, which is simply a good target for him to find confidence, and at the same time, this target seems to be very easy to deal with, so let you see how powerful you are.

After Yoshikawa Motoharu's army rested for a day, he took 3,500 people, including Yoshimi Masayori, and the number of people in the Niko family was more than twice that of the Mori family, but Yoshikawa Motoharu didn't care about this at all, he felt that as long as he faced the Niko family, he would win.
