Qibu City, Fenghouguo, Kyushu (the original residence hall).

Zhengliang sat upright on the main seat at this time. On the comforting statements sent to Fenghou, Zong Zhan, the small divine house beside him, was stamped with the seal of "Tianxia Buwu".

As for a group of people, Dongxiang Heiji, the governor of the Luo Family's Internal Affairs Pavilion, was holding a book in his hand seriously. This is a book that records the grain reserves in the area that the Luo Family's family, fat, steep, steep, and even just occupied not long ago.

"Is it still not possible?"

"Lord, this is the situation of all the food reserves in our territory. Please take a look." Dongxiang Heiji respectfully handed the account book in his hand to Masayora's hands. Then he looked at Masayora without fear.

Just in the assessment meeting, Masayoro proposed to take advantage of the victory and attack the southern and northern parts of Fenghou, defeating the Oto family and other families who were still there, and taking down the entire Fenghou territory in one fell swoop.

As soon as this proposal was made, it naturally received the approval of all military retainers, but it was strongly opposed by the retainers of the Internal Affairs Office. After some debate, Masayoro had to temporarily adjourn the matter, and then after the assessment was completed, he left Hiji Togo alone for inquiries.

But unexpectedly, Heiji Togo has just been a non-violent and has handed the account book directly to Masayoro. Masayoro read this account book in detail last night, so naturally he will not read it again. But Heiji Togo at this time was also very obvious, that is, he did not agree to continue the war.

This can be said to be a little different conceptual difference between the two. After all, Zhengliang was from later generations, so he was used to the kind of life of overspending early. According to the records in the account book, he plundered some supplies from the post-floor farm, and then suspended some of the things such as building marching avenues, reclaiming fields, and demolishing labor to ensure that other things in the territory will still operate normally before the autumn harvest this year. At present, the food stored in the Luo family's warehouse is enough to support this year's autumn harvest, and there is even a little surplus. (Zhengliang has not considered buying food, but it is the spring plowing season, and there is not much food available in various places, not to mention that the surrounding powerful people are feeling it.

After the threat from the Luo family, the Luo family also strengthened the control of its own territory and prevented the grain from being sold to the Luo family. Although the Shimazu family, an ally of the Luo family, did not restrict the purchase of the Luo family, the territory did not contain much food, so there was naturally very little food available. In addition, Zhou Fangtan, controlled by the Daou family, has always been vigilant against the wealthy families in Nanyiyu area, and Hinata Beach controlled by the Ito family, recently strengthened the control of merchant ships, attempting to block the Luo family's maritime trade routes. All the situations have led to the fact that even if the Luo family has money at this time, the food they can buy is not enough to supplement one-fifth of the grain consumed in the daily daily operations of the territory.)

Masayoshi saw this little surplus, and with his always dared to "go high-altitude steel wire", he naturally planned to take risks and take advantage of the victory and win Fenghou. But Heiji Togo didn't think so. In his opinion, the surplus that Masayoshi saw was the surplus of all the territory of the Luo family in the following months, with all the good weather and no other wars. It's just that there is such a smooth thing in the world, and now my family is Feng in Feng.

The latter Kaibe County area is in a confrontation with the Sakai family's forces of the Otomo family? Who knows whether a war will start? Once the war begins, the food consumption will naturally increase. And in his opinion, if the Iton family, who is shouting out to attack the Kaibe County, really put this sentence into action, it will be inevitable that the war will start at that time. And the Kitashiga family, who has not surrendered, will have many uncertainties in the territory in the future. In order to ensure the safety of the territory, he naturally disapproved of it.

"Ding—Ding—Ding..."

Just as the two of them stared at each other in the meeting hall for whether to take the risk to attack, a sound of footsteps came in from the yard.

"Lord, Lord Yamamoto asked for a visit." Shimazu Yoshihiro, who was guarding the door, hurriedly walked in and reported.

"Lord, I'm sorry!" As soon as Shimazu Yoshihiro finished speaking, Yamamoto Kansuke had already walked in quickly and said with a serious expression. Yamamoto Kansuke, like Togo Heiji, usually pays attention to his words and deeds. It is obvious that the information is a bit urgent. So Masara didn't care too much, so he stood up, then quickly came to Yamamoto Kansuke, took the letter and opened it and read it.

"Hmph, I just happened to get rid of you in one fell swoop."

After reading it, Zhengliang browed, his eyes flashed with cold light, and then he said angrily.

"Send the order, prepare to return to the previous generation secretly immediately."

Just when Zhengliang got the information, all parties who were plotting against the Luo family in Chuqian did not know that they had been targeted by the Luo family's intelligence cabinet.

"Master Xianhai, how can Master Chanrong respond?" In the main hall of Hakata Tokaka Temple in Kyushu Kushimaki, a wandering monk said to another monk who had just walked into the main hall.

The monk, who was called Master Xianhai, shook his head gently. Obviously, after visiting Master Chanrong this time, he did not get the result he wanted.

"Huh?" After hearing this, the wandering monk's eyes flashed with cold light, and he whispered to Master Xianhai who had just sat down: "If so, we can only wait..." The wandering monk's voice lowered again, and it was no longer clear that it could be heard, but he also made a throat-cutting action at the same time.

"No! No!" Master Xianhai shook his head and rejected the suggestion of the wandering monk: "Master Chanrong and the Shengfu Temple he presided over are the most respected here. If something goes wrong, it may bring disaster."

"But..." The wandering monk wanted to continue persuading.

"Master Takajo, please rest assured. Although Master Chanrong does not agree with our actions this time, he will definitely not make any noise." Master Xianhai said directly before he could finish his words: "What's more, even if Fukuji has not participated in this time, we have joined forces with temples near Seungten Temple and many shrines headed by Kushida Shrine. Judging from Master Chanrong's attitude, he will never make this matter public. Otherwise, he will be excluded from all the temples and shrines in the region."

"This matter is serious? Master, you must know. For this matter, the lord of the family of my family specially asked Jae Shi to dress up as a wandering monk who returned to the temple to practice hard. And Jae Shi has secretly contacted the local wealthy families such as the Tachihashi family here. The navy in Chuanqian will come to help at that time. Such an important matter must not be missed." Qing Jing Takashi, who pretended to be a wandering monk, said to Master Xianhai opposite him with great caution at this time.

Just as the two sent away the nearby monks and hid in the main hall to discuss secretly, they didn't know that just under the floor where they were sitting, a monk was quietly eavesdropping on their conversation. (Many of the Japanese buildings set a distance between the first floor and the ground, which often leads to a mezzanine in the lower house.)

It has been less than half a year since the temple shrine forces in the Hakata area signed a peace agreement with the Luo family. Now these temple shrine forces are a little unable to help themselves. After the Ouchi family sent Aoki Takashi and others to enter Chubu to fan the flames, they all decided to tear up the agreement with the Luo family.

Why is this so?

This starts with the actions of the Luo family's forces after entering the western part of the Chuqian Kingdom.

According to the original agreement, the territory obtained by the temple shrine forces before the Luo family settled in the local area was still owned by them, and even taxes were not required to be submitted to the Luo family. As for the monks, they can also be retained. However, the scale is not allowed, otherwise it will be considered a violation of the agreement. The Luo family has the right to deal with the temple shrine forces alone without negotiating with the temple shrine forces.

The temple shrine forces were already full of ambitions for such an agreement. However, as time went by, they found that this was not the case. They found that the taxes implemented by the Luo family next to their territory were much lower than theirs, and they also implemented paid corvee and other measures for the first time. This made the leaders of the temple shrine forces all ran to the Luo family territory. According to the previous resolution, after these leaders independently surrendered to the other party's territory, the other party could not hold these leaders responsible for their crimes, nor could they forcibly take them away. In the past, they did not pay attention to the content of this irrelevant agreement, but now when they think about it, they immediately discovered that the fat eagle had already begun to plot against them when signing the agreement.

If the people who lead the people cannot force them back, they have to rely on their omnipotent "God" and "Buddha" that they used to be. However, the people who lead the people are not fools. In the face of absolute interests, except those believers who have completely confused their minds, most of the rest choose a better life.

Now even these "gods" and "Buddhas" have become invalid. So these temples and shrines feel bad. You know, if there are no tenants in the territory to help them farm, would they have to farm on their own? This will inevitably lead to a decrease in the temple's income? Then what else can you use to support the people in the temple? And those who consume the wealthy monks and soldiers also need to provide support!

Reduce taxes and adopt the same taxes as the Luo family? In this way, everyone's income will be reduced. However, there are many factions in the temple, and it is impossible to discuss how to redistribute and reduce the income after taxes.

Just when the shrines were filled with mud inside the temples, the Luo family took new actions. They actually built new temples and shrines in the Chumai area. These temples all enshrine the Great Bodhisattva of Hachiman, but no matter how you look at it, that Bodhisattva is the Fatty Eagle himself. Damn, Fatty Eagle, are you too shameless?

Shameless? And even more shameless. These shrines and temples supported by the Luo family began to promote the heroic deeds of the cunning eagle, trying to attract their followers away.

In order to attract these believers, these newly built temples and shrines also help local residents to cure diseases and teach them for free. They even teach people how to farm.

The local temple shrines in Hakata began to panic. The Luo family is now doing nothing to cut off people’s money. As the saying goes, cutting off people’s money is equivalent to seeking human life. These temple shrines will naturally fight against you.
