Chapter 390 The Battle of Seto

It is said that since the army was stationed, Yoshitaka Ouchi's love for Kyoto culture began to occur at this time. Almost every time he came to join a local wealthy family, he would hold a welcome banquet. It took more than a month to delay the time.

Since all the troops in the original formation are like this, the powerful men in the rear formation are even more unbearable. In order to confuse everyone, Zhengliang had to go with the flow, secretly commanding territorial affairs while frequently participating in the banquet, which was very interesting.

During this period, Zhengliang met many people through banquets.

First of all, the other two people in the "Three Heihes of the Western Kingdom", Tao Longfang and Yoshikawa Motochun. Because they are similar in age and are famous, the communication between the three is very speculative.

In addition, Masara also met Ouchi Haruchi. Since Ouchi Yoshitaka had no heir, he later asked Tosa Yika's family to be the master of Yika'an, the fourth man of the Fang family to come over as his adopted son. In addition, his mother was Yoshitaka's sister, the wife of the Yika'an family, so he was even more indulgent to Ouchi Yoshitaka. The Yika'an family is from a public family, and the Ouchi is the authority of the Wu family who is the guardian of the seven countries. For Yoshitaka, it is very exciting to have a good time to hold the adopted son who has both the superior bloodline of the public and the Wu family. Therefore, Yoshitaka has great expectations for Yoshitaka, educates him and his civil and military affairs, and regards him as his successor, the future of the Ouchi family.

Yoshitaka Ouchi is only twenty years old this year. Under the introduction of Tao Longfang, he met Masara. Although he knew that soon, this poor guy would fall into the sea and drowned in Yiyapu on his way back. But Masara still tried his best to get along with him. Of course, Masara would not tell the other party that he must pay attention to safety when taking the boat. After all, Ouchi Haruchi's death was also one of the reasons that prompted Ouchi Yoshitaka to lose his political ambitions, indulge in entertainment and cultural undertakings, and reuse the civilized school. If the Luo family wants to develop, they must wait for this opportunity. Therefore, Ouchi Haruchi must die according to the historical process.

In addition to Haruka Ouchi, Masara also met Yoshimi Masara, Kobayakawa Masahei, Yoshikawa Yoshikawa Yoshinobu, Kumatani Nobunaga, Inoue Masahiro and others.

Yoshimi Masara was the lord of Matsushima, the third group of Ishimiya Kingdom. Masarara's intention was mainly to make friends with the companion mines of Ishimiya Yinshan. According to historical development, after the end of this war, Yoshimiya Zhenglai would attack Ishimiya's pro-Nezi forces one by one with the support of Ouchi, and to a certain extent control Ishimiya Yinshan. Masarara had no hope for the silver in Ishimiya Yinshan. After all, these silvers were very close to the Nizi family and the Ouchi family. However, the companion mines near the Yinshan Mountain were different. Masarara knew that there would be some chalcopyrite, pyrite, galena and other veins there. Masarara planned to work with the other powerful men to mine these veins first before the other powerful men reacted.

As for getting to know Masahei Kobayawa, Yoshikawa Yoshikawa, Nobunaga Kumaya, Masahira Inoue and others, it was entirely to curb the development of the Maori family.

According to historical development, during the retreat of this battle, Masahei Kobayashikawa would die in the battle of Yusuogawa in Izumo Mitan Township. The direct result of this incident was that the Maori family had the opportunity to integrate with the Kobayashikawa family. According to historical records, in the 13th year of Astronomy (1544), the prominent family of Kobayashikawa, a branch of the Kobayashikawa clan, died of illness and no heirs. Since his wife was the niece of Mori Motozu, Mori used this mechanism to help Takake enter the Kobayashikawa family. At the same time, because another family of the Kobayashikawa clan, Kobayashikawa clan died in battle, and his son Wanping was blind

So his retainers are very doubtful about Fanping's ability. Seeing this, Yuan proposed to marry Takake to Shinumada Kohachikawa from the name of Masahira's daughter. Since then, the two Kasahira clans were unified, and the Maori family has obtained control of the Seto Inland Sea from then on and supported by the Iyu navy. In order to delay or even avoid this situation, Masahira decided to remind Kohachikawa when he passed by Izumo Mitan Township Yoshikogawa. It would be best to escape alone to avoid death. Of course, this reminder is a reminder by Masahira who was stationed in his army.

Yoshikawa Yoshikawa Yoshikawa and Kumagaya Nobunaga. One is the current leader of the Yoshikawa family, and the other is the head of the Kumagaya family. The former will be forced to live in seclusion by the Maori family. Even his son was assassinated by the Maori family, while the other is used by the Maori family, which prompted Yoshikawa Motochun to successfully inherit the Yoshikawa family. Masaraki plans to remind the two of them appropriately when he reaches a certain time. He even secretly assists the two in fighting against the Maori family. Therefore, now establish a certain personal relationship first, which will help the implementation of the strategy after Ri.

Inoue Masashima is now an important official of the Maori family. When Mori Moto succeeded as the family governor, he and Inoue, who were of the same clan, were strongly supported by the Inoue family branches such as Inoue Masashima, Inoue Masashi, Inoue Masashi, Inoue Masashi, Inoue Masashi, Inoue Masashi, and Inoue Masashimi. Because he made great contributions in the process of becoming the family governor, Inoue Masashima regarded himself as a hero, and his strength and influence gradually expanded. He himself became more and more arrogant and domineering, and he did not take the Yuan seriously. For example, this time, if Yoshitaka Ouchi personally issued the convening order, he would definitely not follow the Maori family to participate.

Even if he joined the war, he was separated from the Maori family's military camp, which seemed extremely duli. In this way, Mori Mori must have felt unsafe, so he finally carried out a large-scale purge on the Inoue family in the 19th year of Astronomy (1550), and all the members of the family, including Mori and his son, Kazuo, were killed. It was through this that the Mori family established a management system for subordinates in other allies. In order to delay the rise of the Maori family, Masara decided to remind the guy who was exterminated. He asked him to give Mori Mori a stumbling block.

Just when Masara and the powerful were fighting fiercely, Yoshitaka Ouchi finally decided to go out.

In mid-April, the Orion Army set up a bridge to enter Izumo at the Tokatsu Ferry in Enogawa, and then marched into Akatsuki. The first attack point of the Orion Army was Akatsuki Setoyama Castle (also known as Akatsuki Castle), which was the residence of Akatsuki Mitsuki, one of the ten flag generals of Niko.

Seto Yama Castle located at the southern tip of Yunnan is close to the three countries of Ishimi and Ishimi. The front line of the three countries makes Seto Yama Castle the fourth flag of the 10th banner of the Zi Castle. It is regarded as an extremely important stronghold and is the predecessor of Tomota Castle.

"According to the investigation report, there are about 3,000 soldiers of the city lord Akazu Mitsuki in Setoyama Castle, plus 1,000 reinforcements from Toda Castle led by Saburo Tanaka Saburo Zuemon. There are 4,000 Nizishi in Setoyama Castle. How do you think you should make a plan?" Yoshitaka Ouchi asked in the military tent.

"Akazu Mitsuki used Akamakawa, who was flowing across Takaseto, to build a solid line of defense. It may not be easy to conquer!" Sugitsu said first.

"Hmph, as long as our army crosses Akanekawa, Seto Yama Castle can be taken down!" Tako Hyogotou retorted. This guy, who formed the so-called "radical faction" with Tao Longfang, encouraged Yoshitaka Ouchi to attack Tomota Castle, and eventually led to a crushing defeat in the army.

"There is a flat land in front of Setoyama Castle, and the steep mountains behind the city, if you attack, you can only attack from the front!" Mizawa Naoki, who was the guide of this marching, spoke at this time. Mizawa Naoki, Mizawa Naoki, and Midaoya, were originally one of the ten banners of the Nizi family. Masara knew that these guys were actually instructed by the Nizi family and pretended to surrender to the Oui family. At that time, at the critical moment of the war, Mizawa Naoki and many generals would suddenly return from the Ouifang to the Nizifang, thus causing the situation to break out.

After earth-shaking changes, the Da Nei Army eventually lost and fled. Of course, even if they knew their plans, Zhengliang would not say it. First, even if they said it, they might not believe it. They would even become the object of avoidance by everyone; second, Zhengliang really needed the Da Nei family's defeat. In this way, the Luo family could have the opportunity to develop and become the overlord who was on par with the Da Nei family. Instead of being a nominal ally who was dependent on the other party, like now.

"The southwest of Setoyama Castle is a slightly higher and gentle flat ground, which can be used as a camp for formation. Then let's make a long-term plan!" Naito Yoshimori also spoke at this time.

"Yes! I'll discuss it!" Tao Longfang frowned and thought for a while, and also spoke in support of Naito Xingsheng's opinion.

So, after receiving everyone's advice, Yoshitaka Ouchi decided to follow Naito Yoshimori's suggestion and first go to the flat ground southwest of Setoyama Castle to set up the formation.

However, Akazu Mitsuki in Setoyama Castle obviously would not let the coalition forces do what they wanted. When the coalition forces were about to cross Akamai River, Akazu Mitsuki sent a large number of stumblers and even attacked the troops. Even Masara's rear formation was attacked by the opponent several times. Fortunately, under the courageous counterattack of Luoshi, the sneak attack troops had to return without success.

The two sides were repeatedly tug-of-war, and it took several months to flicker. In early June, the coalition forces finally crossed Akanekawa and set up a battle in the southwest of Setoyama Castle as planned. At this time, the weather was not good and it started to rain heavily.

Zhengliang, who knew about the next plan of Chizui Guangqing, immediately let the back formation move the military rations to a high-level place to preserve it. Sure enough, just as someone had just moved the food, the water of Chimeichuan surged over like thousands of horses swelled. Chizui Guangqing indeed broke the weir of Chimeichuan and made the river water surge into the Chimei Basin.

"This time, Zaemon's squad was defeated and asked someone to move the food to a high place in advance. Otherwise, our army's rations would definitely be lost!" Naito Yoshimori said in the military tent with lingering fear.

"This time, Masarara made his first contribution, and I am grateful to you. This is my reward. Please ask Your Highness Masarara to help you!" Yoshitaka Ouchi also smiled for a long time, and then handed the reward to Masarara himself.

Masaliang respectfully took the reward and glanced at it. It turned out to be the "Imperial Bottle Bowl" unique to the Oui family. At this time, the emperor and his ministers of the Oui family were accustomed to writing "Imperial Bottle Bowl" and would indicate the content and quantity of the gifts. Generally, the gift of the bottle is limited to one bottle and one fold. Being able to obtain the "Imperial Bottle Bowl" written by Yoshitaka Oui is also a great honor.
