The matter of Nizi Haruhisa's attack on Bigo Kuniura's upper Sokei has been spreading in the world for a long time, and the first to spread it is Date Masahiro, the master of the Noyama Masaki, but when he really knew the news of Nizi Haruhisa's troops, his first feeling was actually a kind of grief and indignation. Noyama Yosaki is not unmentally prepared for the matter of Nizi Haruhisa sending troops, he knows that Nizi Haruhisa will definitely send troops, in order to show Nizi Haruhisa's prestige and reputation, but when he really knew that Nizi Haruhisa really sent troops, he felt a burst of grief and indignation. Noyama Masahiro and Date Masahiro are very different, at least the experience is different, Date Masahiro knows Niko Haruhisa and Mori Moto, these people start from the history of three points true and seven points false, Noyama Masahiro knows that they use his eyes to observe, his ears to hear, and his head to think and figure out. Maori Yuan may only exist to the point where hearing is false, but Nizi Haruhisa is a character who has really experienced it.

On the night of the Battle of Bigo, where Date Shinhiro was killed, Noyama Yoshitomo led the remnants of his army to attack the enemy of Bigo Province, and the roar of iron cannons, shouts, screams, and the tragic screams of Date Shinhiro before his death left a deep impression on Noyama Yoshito. In addition, the smell of gunsmoke and blood that remained in the air the next day, as well as the scars left by the war on Date Se, made Noyama Masahima, who was holding Date Shinheng's cold corpse, feel sad.

When the warrior horse rode high and stood tall and proud of the crowd, Nizi Harumu passed by them, without even looking at them, and quickly marched towards the castle that had already fallen, leaving behind the remnants of their sorrows, if it weren't for the young lord of the armor cage city, I am afraid that he would have followed Date Shinheng to the battlefield to the death.

It's just that no one expected that the young lord of Koroong Castle, Date Masahiro's nephew, died in that man-made fire. In the end, Date Masahiro was achieved, and Noyama Masahiro also ignited the flame of revenge, he hated Hirakawa Hisakin, the enemy who burned down the armor cage castle, and even more hated the culprit Niko Haruma who didn't even look at them.

Zhengheng glanced up at him, slightly surprised by his sudden hideous expression. said: "Until now, Nizi Haruhisa has not informed us of his marching route, I am afraid that it will be difficult for our Date family not to be implicated in this battle, it seems that Nizi Haruhisa wants to serve us in a pot." ”

The words were quite relaxed, but Zhengheng's mood was secretly anxious, although he had obtained a windfall, it would take a long time to turn the windfall into strength. The current Date family is really strong on the outside, and they are not ready to confront Niko Haruhisa.

Noyama Masaki calmed down a little after taking a few deep breaths, after dozens of battles, it was difficult for him to be swayed by love, it was enough to see how much damage Nizi Haruhisa had done to him, and he asked, "Your Highness, where has Nizi Harumu gone now?" ”

Zhengheng thought for a moment before answering this question: "This is the news we got at the intelligence station in Bigo Country. There is also a letter from Iga Kutaka who called the police, but it should not have left Misasaka Country yet, and it is estimated that Niko Haruma will collide with Urakami Sokei in three to four days at the latest. ”

It's not that Zhengheng deliberately sells off, but he really doesn't know. The intelligence system of the Date family is not very strong, and the dark part of the Date family is only one of the Kusama people, and it has not been formed for a long time, and it has collected a group of night thieves and wandering warblers. Kusama Shibei itself is not a capable character, and he may still be able to control it when he was in Aga and Zheta County, but after arriving in the country of Bichu, he is already beyond his strength, and now it is even more difficult to reach, which has become a shortcoming of Date Home Exhibition. Due to the expansion of territory and the increasing intensity of warfare, as well as the tightening of the composition of the whole society, the new intelligence system is an inevitable trend.

To end the joint war with Maori Yuan, there will be a long period of calm in the planning of the political balance, and it is said that the calm period is not that there is no time for peace and immaculate horses, but that so many men and horses will not be mobilized as this time. A series of new policies will allow the Date family to move towards the road of the Warring States Daimyo, but I didn't expect that Nizi Haruhisa's sudden dispatch of troops disrupted the formation, so that the Date family had to make a life-and-death choice again.

Noyama Yichao nodded slightly, and said with an anxious face: "I'm afraid that Urakami Zongjing alone will be difficult to resist the attack from Niko Haruhisa, if Urakami Zongjing falls to Niko Haruhisa." I'm afraid that Nizi Haruhisa's soldiers won't stop advancing? ”

A few months ago, when Date Masahiro judged that Niko Haruhisa would prepare for the war of the future kingdom, he discussed it with everyone on the map. After the sixth year of the copper (713 AD), the six counties of Eita, Katsuta, Tomada, Kume, Masaka and Ota of the former country became independent as a country, which was for the country of beauty, so there was an ancient street between the country of beauty and the country of Bizen, connecting the Sanyo Road with the mountain **, and Niko Harumu sent troops to prepare for the former country, first detouring to Tsuyama Castle to subdue the people of the country of Misaku, and then down the Yoshii River and going straight down the river to smash the Tenjin Mountain Castle of Urakami Sect Jingju City, once the Tenjin Mountain Castle succumbed, Bizen Country will not have any hostile forces. But this is only a consideration on paper. If Niko Haruma does not go along the Yoshii River, but along the Asahikawa, it will be directly inserted into the Okayama Plain, and the Date family will face the front of Niko Harumhisa's troops.

The corners of Zhengheng's mouth twitched and said, "Originally, I planned to rest for a while, but now it seems that I am afraid that time will not wait for me!" "The meaning of Zhengheng is very clear, and Yeshan Yichao knows it well. The Date family has stepped on the blood of the foreign ministers of Nizi Haruma for several years to get to the point where it is today, although it is still nominally subordinate to the foreign ministers of Nizi Haruma, but it has been separated, in fact, the relationship between the Date family and the Niko family has always been tepid, and sometimes it is the same as water and fire, if it weren't for the constant threat of Maori Moto, I'm afraid that the order of punishment would have been issued a long time ago.

Shinmi Sadatsune, Zhuang Gaozi, and the Mimura family are all the leaders of the Bizhong people of the Niko family, although the Mimura family is about to leave, it is not that they have not officially broken away from the rebellion and were eliminated and expelled by Date Zhengheng, and now they have captured most of the Bigo country in one fell swoop. As long as the Date family is given a period of rest and the resources of the Bigo country are truly integrated, the strength of the Date family will increase exponentially, and Niko Haruhisa will no longer be able to suppress the momentum of the Date family.

In other words, the Date family needs to recuperate, and they can't afford to fight too much. From the twenty-first year of astronomy to the twenty-third year of astronomy, even after the end of the rice war, the sergeants under the command of Zhengheng also felt tired. According to Zhengheng's plan, he hoped that after the harvest in the autumn of next year, he would use troops against An Yiguo's Maori Yuan. But now it seems that Nizi Harujiu will not sit idly by for a long time, and he is going to end up by himself.

Zhengheng stood up, glanced at the sky, and said: "Urakami Zongjing alone is definitely not the opponent of Nizi Qingjiu, and Nizi Qingjiu at this moment, I think he has already set his sights on dominating the Chinese region, he wants to first subdue all the forces that do not obey discipline, the first step is Urakami Zongjing, and then we are." Previously, what we have been adhering to is to rely on the prestige of the Nizi family, and now we have to change our strategy, we need to quickly integrate the country of Bigo, send troops to rescue Urakami Munekei as much as possible, and burn the flames of war outside the borders, so as to strive for enough respite and regain vitality, and give up the country of Anyi, and reach a no-war agreement with Yoshicho Ouchi at any cost, so as to be able to fight against Nizi Haruhisa. ”

Noyama nodded secretly.

Zheng Heng suddenly asked: "Yi Dynasty, the only question now is, who can sit in the country of Beihou?" ”

Noyama Masatomo did not answer immediately, and the appointment of a person to govern Bigo Province was indeed a matter of importance. Now there is indeed no suitable candidate in the Date family, although there are many retainers, but most of them are young people with no administrative experience, which is the biggest shortcoming and defect of the Date family, there are not enough independent characters.

Zheng Heng didn't wait for an answer, and said to himself: "Do you know why you want to reuse the outsider Miyazawa Heihachi? It's not that he values his high strength, but that no one is available, and he is an outsider, at least in a short period of time, he can use it to resist the pressure from An Yiguo. Talent? It didn't come out of nowhere, Taoshan, Qinghe, Kulong, Yoshida, Kawasaki, etc. are all temporary choices, but they are all too young, and they all have this and that shortcomings, and it is difficult to be independent. Bigo Kuni's Naragasaki, Kamejuyama, and Kamibe have all been practiced together, and the entire stone height is close to 50,000 stones. Since no one can be in charge alone, then I will divide the 50,000 koku into two hundred and fifty parts, and according to the rules, 5 troops should be sent for every 100 koku, and 200 koku is 1o people, and select 250 brave and good fighters from the four color preparations, and let each of them take charge of ten ashigaru, and they will be ashigaru heads, so that Bigo Province will have 250 Ashigaru leaders loyal to the Date family and 2,500 ashigaru who are half farmers and half soldiers. ”

Yeshan Yichao looked up in amazement, looked at Zhengheng incredulously, and said, "Your Highness, this, this, is it unreasonable?!" ”

According to the various Warring States daimyo at that time, whenever a new territory was occupied, it was only necessary to divide the territory with a stroke of a pen on the map of the mountains and rivers, and let the meritorious ministers under them go to the fiefdom, and the daimyo only needed to provide a small amount of money and food needed for the initial recruitment, and the rest was the duty of the retainers who were divided. The military leaders don't care how many soldiers can be recruited or what kind of army they can train, all they have to do is to issue a paper order when they use the troops, and gather these generals who have been divided into seals. In an instant, an army was formed.

Because the Date family was created in a hurry, there was no burden on this at all, so the Date family has always maintained a large number of low-level semi-samurai class, the so-called half-samurai class can become a group of Samurai of the Date family as long as they own land, these people are the foundation of the Date family, and it is also the guarantee of repeated victories.

After all, these two hundred and fifty people and the Date family are both prosperous and loss-oriented, and once someone makes trouble, these people will desperately protect the land for the Date family, which is the foundation of long-term occupation of the Bigo country, if there are no two hundred and fifty people, it will be a source of water and a tree without roots.

Zheng Heng smiled slightly, and said: "It is reasonable to save zĂ i, select personnel according to the list in the war merit book, and if they have a single family, once they have land, I will allow them to have a surname and become a real samurai of the Date family."
