The current situation of the Luo family is very special.

In China, the Luo family is the only one who is the only one. Even the subordinate retainers and noble families do not pose a threat to their own number of private soldiers. As for the newly occupied areas, the noble families must resist the laws of the Luo family because they protect their own interests. However, these are no longer fearful, and these noble families will soon be submerged in the development trend of the Luo family.

Foreign countries, there are also the Hodo family on Iki Island and many pirates in the Goji area. However, the Hodo family is now in a civil strife. It is said that the So family on Tsushima Island has begun to have the idea of ​​Iki Island. The pirates in the Goji area are deterred by the Luo family's naval army and dare not act rashly.

In Nanfei, there were also wealthy families such as Aima, Dacun and Xixiang who occasionally caused some trouble for the Luo family. However, Songyue City and Songgang City were almost all copper city iron walls, which made these wealthy families unable to get involved in the territory of the Luo family.

In the oxin and the oxin, the Otomo family has become the enemy of the Luo family, and it is also the enemy of the Luo family for a long time in the future. Therefore, the attitude of the Luo family as an ally of the Luo family and the neighbor of the Daou family has become the key to the Luo family being able to calmly deal with threats around the surrounding areas.

At the beginning, Masarara was willing to agree to Yoshitaka Ouchi's request and kept Duanmu Kiyoshi in the home of the Daouchi family as a guest general. It was precisely because he understood the internal trends of the Daouchi family in a timely manner and secretly influenced the public opinion of the Luo family on the Luo family, and tried every means to stabilize and paralyze the Daouchi family, and even made the Daouchi family support the stable development of the Luo family. This time, after the battle with the Daouchi family in Feiqian, Duanmu Kiyoshi did play such a role.

"Lord Lord, fortunately, you wrote a letter to Lord Aoray in advance. With his help, the remarks about the rising rise of our family and threatening the family were stopped. Moreover, under the arrangement of the Lord Lord, most of the wealthy families have pointed the finger of the complaint at Sugikawa Yun."

"Yeah!" Zhengliang nodded. Not long after returning to Tutu, the guy Shan Xingyun secretly made a threat to the Luo family in order to divert the accusation and pressure from the rich family because of this failure. So Zhengliang immediately took countermeasures.

First, the rich families who secretly joined forces with Masara's cheap father-in-law Takeru, and the Qiuyue family, who had always been intimate with the Luo family, set off a whirlwind of complaining about Sugita's fortune in the Ouchi family, which made Sugita's life difficult. It is said that even Yoshitaka Ouchi, who was far away in Izumo, wrote a letter of reprimand to Sugita.

The reason why Yoshitaka Ouchi was so annoyed was that he received accusations from his family and Masarago at the same time. The former was of course to report Sugi Yoshiki's incompetence in Fatty. Masarago complained in the letter that he could not get Sugi Yoshiki's support, and was even excluded from the camp against the Otomo family by Sugi Yoshiki, and in the end he was not allowed to devote his entire clan's merits to the invading army of the Otomo family alone.

In addition to indirectly complaining to Yoshitaka Ouchi, this letter from Masara also implicitly told Yoshitaka Ouchi that the current territory of Himeqian was all captured by the Luo family alone, so don’t return to Himeqian again under the pretext of asking the Luo family for the fort that was taken away by the Otomo family. This is impossible.

Yoshitaka Ouchi saw this meaning clearly and was furious. If Sugi Yoshiki stood in front of him at this time, he would definitely have cut Sugi Yoshiki directly.

In addition to these two methods, Masayoshi also ordered people to secretly step up the purchase of Hakata's food where Shan Xingyun's family was located, causing public grievances in his territory to gradually boil. Not only that, in order to cooperate with the current accusations of his incompetence, Masayoshi also made people pretend to be a thief and constantly steal in Hakata's shops, causing the reputation of the Sugi family, which is responsible for managing Hakata's management, to decline again and again.

"This time, thanks to the help of my father-in-law and Qiuyue's family, our family will offer you a batch of gifts later. When you return to Zhuangqian, you can give them the gifts." Zhengliang ordered.

"Yes." Duanmu Kiyoshi immediately said to his contempt. He knew that this was Masayoshi taking the opportunity to create opportunities and give him the opportunity to deepen friendship with these two wealthy families. In fact, since becoming a guest general of the Luo family who lived in the Oui family, Masayoshi has provided him with several coins and supplies, allowing him to deepen his friendship with various retainers of Kazumaki and even Oui.

In fact, I guess Yoshitaka Ouchi did not expect that a retainer who was half-forced to come from the Luo family because of his temporary love for talent really secretly created a lot of benefits for the Luo family, and even became a spy sent by the Luo family in the Da Nei family. In Masayoshi's opinion, Yoshitaka Ouchi was confident that he could completely transform Duanmu Qingmasa into a retainer of the Da Nei family with his background, but from the current situation, it was obvious that his plan was a failure. Duanmu Qingmasa was really in Cao's camp and his heart was in the Han Dynasty!

"Is there any latest news about the battle between the Ouchi family in Izumo?" Masara asked again. Masara was very concerned about Ouchi Yoshitaka's expedition. Not only did he send people to pay attention to the situation near the battlefield, but he also promptly learned about the news about the battle within the Ouchi family through Duanmu Kiyoshi and others.

"Since the news that the army was besieging the Nizi family's territory again a month ago, no other news has been heard back. However, the Da Nei family has made plans to expand again," Duanmu Qingzheng replied.

After hearing this, Masayoro couldn't help but chuckled secretly. I wonder what these retainers would feel when Yoshinori Ouchi returned in a crushing defeat in more than two months later?

After learning about the current internal situation of the Daou Family from Duanmu Qingzheng in detail, Zhengliang arranged for Duanmu Qingzheng to go down and rest. This time Duanmu Qingzheng secretly returned to Feiqian, and all he had to go down and make preparations for secretly returning to Zhuqian.

After seeing off Duanmu Qingzheng, Zhengliang took out another list and handed it to Mu Zao Chongzhong who had been waiting outside the conference hall.

"Master, is this?" After seeing the list of people's names and some of the characteristic places of residence, Kizuo Chongtaki seemed quite confused. What surprised him even more was that some of the list were actually far away in Kanto and even Muo. Almost all over the Warring States Period.

"Follow this list to find these people to see if these people are willing to work in our family. No matter how much the price they pay, it also contains some corresponding to the biggest price our family can pay for them." Zhengliang said.

"Master, are you planning?"

"See them to my family. If you don't want to come, you can kidnap them. Even if you kidnap them, you will kidnap them for me." Zhengliang said.

Yes, this list of Mu Zao Chongzhong is a list of great people in the Warring States Period drawn up by Zhengliang based on his memory. With the development of the Luo family, the talent issues have become increasingly prominent. Although Zhengliang is already working hard to cultivate talents in the territory, these people have basically not grown up yet, so Zhengliang thought of a way to recruit foreign aid.

Zhengliang is not a super awesome, let alone a person with the halo of the protagonist. He really can't attract a lot of great things as soon as he appears. This is impossible. Even though the Luo family has become a daimyo that can challenge Otomo and even the Outomi family, it may not be able to successfully attract the people on the list. Therefore, Zhengliang decided to take the method of using both soft and hard. It is best if you are willing to come, everyone is willing. If you don't want to, then I will be a bully and cook the rice first, and then slowly cultivate the relationship.

Mu Zao Chongzhong, who had long been used to the way the head of the family did things, did not speak much after receiving the orders from Zhengliang. Instead, after listening to Zhengliang's opinions, he respectfully stepped down. According to the distribution range of personnel on this list, it is estimated that he will be out of the territory for a long time, so he has to go on and prepare.

After arranging all the affairs in the village city, Zhengliang began to return to Anyue City under the escort of 200 warriors and 100 cloaks. He had been fighting in the east and west during this period, and he was a little neglected by his wife and children at home. Therefore, Zhengliang was at the time of his heart.

But when the team was halfway through, they met three people including Ander, who were planning to rush to the village city. Two other people who followed Ander, one was a local craftsman, and the last one was a Ming craftsman who followed Zhengliang from Ming to Feiqian.

It turned out that Ander and the other two were planning to go to the village city to report to Masayoshi about the progress of the forging of the medley.

Just two months ago, he and some craftsmen from the firearm workshop copied the first mesh gun, but the quality and effect were very poor, and even worse than the Fire Order of the Ming Dynasty.

This time they finally copied another match rope gun. After testing, they unanimously felt that the imitation gun was effective, so they sent Ander and the other two to come to report the good news to Zhengliang.

After learning the news, Zhengliang first tried out the newly copied mesh rope gun. From the perspective of later generations, the current mesh rope gun, from the loading method, is a manual single shot in the front; from the perspective of the body tube type, it is a smoothbore gun; from the perspective of the projectile, it is a spherical projectile, and the projectile is packed with the propulsion medicine. The caliber of the mesh rope gun is about 15-20 mm. I tried to shoot it on the spot, with a range of approximately 60-100 meters. If you are skilled in the operation, you can fire five bullets per minute.

Overall, such results have been very good. With the birth of this mesh rope gun, it was announced that the Luo family had become the first famous name in the Warring States Period to master the use and production technology of muskets.
