Chapter 167

On the afternoon of October 1, 2019, the autumn wind brings a refreshing feeling. The blue sky is spotless and crystal clear in early autumn. The clouds shine on the clear water; the microwaves of fish scales and the green river water add the color of floating clouds, which is particularly gorgeous.

At this moment, when he was attacked by Jinshang, two small ships were shuttled back and forth between the east and west banks, transporting the people from the west banks back to the east coast. On the shore of the west coast, the Ishihara family soldiers who came out of Yuansheng City were in full swing. While climbing Xiaozao nervously, they were careful to pay attention to the Luo family soldiers who were both waiting for formations two hundred meters away.

According to the settlement agreement, Zhengliang first removed the military tent outside Yuansheng City and left the passage to leave the city. Then the officers and soldiers entered Yuansheng City and persuaded the defenders to retreat. In less than half an hour, the soldiers in the other party formed a formation and came out one after another from the city. They saw that each of them was holding various objects in their hands, which was very tempting to move. Zhengliang, who was leading the Luo family's soldiers to monitor the entire process, was not concerned about it. As long as the other party handed over the city rock, he would have taken advantage of it. Of course, he was also worried that the other party would play tricks, so he also sent a large number of detectives to monitor closely nearby to prevent another team from suddenly appearing reinforcements and catch him off guard.

After the control was completed, the troops of Yuansheng City began to drive towards the shore of the attack on Shangjin. Zhengliang sent Yi Nuo to lead dozens of peasant soldiers to immediately start taking over Yuansheng City, while personally leading the troops to the west coast of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore of the shore

The handover was still going on in an orderly manner, and the families of the Ishihara family members in the territory also arrived one after another. This was the last condition for reconciliation. The Ishihara family was not a fool. In order to calm the hearts of the rescued samurai and peasant soldiers, their families must be properly resettled. In response, Masayoshi waved his hand and agreed readily. Even if he forced these people to stay, it was just some people with dissent, which would only affect the stability of the newly occupied land. It would be better to send them away.

So, he drove to Tsuka. Every time a boat was transported here, someone would carry out a box of coins on the shore not far away, and put it on the shore. The people from the Luo family would count and receive it. These were the 200 jin of compensation promised by the Ishihara family. This time, it was probably the first to pay compensation in the Warring States War.

Whenever I think of this, Masayoshi has an inexplicable feeling. For the powerful people, land is the lifeblood. Although the Ishihara family is currently suffering from internal and external troubles, I always feel that this reconciliation seems a bit too smooth, and it is a bit unbelievable. People are always so strange that they always doubt what is easy to get, but they take it for granted.

At this time, the voice of the nearby servant was heard in his ears.

Zhengliang quickly took back his thoughts from wandering around. He calmed down and asked, "What's the matter?"

"The detective sent to the other side has returned and is asking for a meeting behind," Hunatong said.

"Let him come over." Zhengliang said.

Soon, a detective came to Zhengliang.

When the interrogation ceremony was finished, Zhengliang asked directly: "What is the current situation on the other side?"

"Your Highness, the entire territory of the Ishihara family has been mobilized. Even women were wrapped in the peasant army and served as the number of people," Jianfan said with lingering fear. It seems that he has experienced a very dangerous situation.

"Oh?" Masako was shocked. It seemed that the internal strife of the Huzi family was getting worse and worse. Could it be that Huzi Masayo is crazy? Even if the other families didn't know that the water army of the Hirado Masapur family was fighting with the water army of the Huzi family, it was impossible for Huzi Masayo? In the case of internal and external troubles, he continued to fight against the head of the brother's family. Isn't this both sides suffering? Was he in trouble? He was worried that after meeting the requirements of the brother's family, he was slightly injured or even besieged by them, so he simply confronted the brother's family, so that the brother's family did not dare to act rashly for the time being, and then concentrated his efforts to deal with the Masapur family's strategy first? Well, it seems that this is possible.

"What are the changes in the other divisions of Huzi's family?" Zhengliang continued to ask.

"The several divisions seem to be ready to join forces to put pressure on the Huzi family. The villain saw several divisions on the border between the Huzi family and the Ishihara family."

"Very good, you go down and rest first." After Masayoro got the news he wanted, he ordered the detective to report the news to go down and rest. He looked at the Ishihara family soldiers who were still boarding the ship not far away and pondered. Yes, he was moved. Since the situation on the other side is so chaotic, would he take the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and see if he can get more benefits?

"Your Highness", at this time, the voice of the close servant Hu was ringing in his ears again, "Iron Man Yiruo sent someone to send news that the pirates in Kushishi City have been found."

"Yeah," Zhengliang nodded in a habitual manner, but suddenly he captured important information from the sentence just now. He suddenly turned his head and said in a loud voice, "What? Are you saying those pirates have found it?"

"Yes, Your Highness. Lord Yinuo is waiting for your order. Now he has sent someone to monitor the pirates."

"Okay, very good." Zhengliang clenched his fists and became excited.

Why is Masayoro so excited? This starts with the geographical environment of the central part of the Higashimatsuura Peninsula.

There are three large rivers in the middle of the Higashimatsuura Peninsula. The westmost one is the river formed by the convergence of the tributaries of the Mongari River and the Uchi River. Its sea estuary is Banya Bay, which is now completely controlled by the Luo family; the eastmost one is the current Kazuki, and its west bank and the sea estuary leading to Huzi Bay have also been included in the Luo family's sphere of influence. The remaining middle one is called Shigaki River, which flows through the original Ishida family territory, and finally goes out to the sea through an outlet that is still occupied by several pirates, and finally connects to the Xuanjie Beach. Between the sea estuary of Tashima and Shigaki River, there is a small peninsula that highlights the Xuanjie Beach, which is the location of the famous Matoya Castle behind Ri.

It can be said that as long as you control the sea port of Kagawa, it will be equivalent to completely surrounding the territory occupied by the Luo family in the central part of the Hiromatsuura Peninsula, which is conducive to the defense of the territory. However, to occupy it, you must first drive away or even kill the pirates entrenched there. This is not a simple matter. The biggest difficulty is that these pirates have no fixed dens and often change their hiding places at will. Once you forcibly occupy their sphere of influence, they may retaliate. The easiest way is to come and disturb you frequently and make you very upset. What the close servant Hu Natongzhu just reported was that the detectives of our family discovered the current shelter of the pirates. Masayora was preparing to kill this group of pirates in one fell swoop, and even if they could not be killed, they should try their best to damage them. In this way, the foundation of the Luo family in the Hiromatsuura Peninsula will be completely consolidated.

So, why is Zhengliang so enthusiastic about attacking this group of pirates? It is possible to talk to them. The reason is very simple, there are people Zhengliang urgently hopes to kill.

There are mainly two pirate forces in that area, namely Imamura and Ikeda. Imamura is the most powerful, and their leader is named Wusuke. Speaking of this Wusuke, another person has to be involved, which is Wusuke's brother Shisuke.

Who are the four assistants? To be precise, it is a devil invading the Ming Dynasty. There is a passage in history books when Wang Zhi, the one-pirate king of the Ming Dynasty, was recorded in history: In legend, Wang Zhi had a strange phenomenon, "I was young and down, had chivalrous spirit, and had a strong and wise strategy, and was good at giving me good things, so that my old friends believed it." In the 19th year of Jiajing, Wang Zhi and Xu Weixue, Ye Zongman and others built sea ships in Guangdong, "placing banned goods such as nitro-yellow silk cotton, and arrived in Riban, Siam, and Western countries to trade", making huge profits. Since overseas trade was an illegal activity at the time, Wang Zhi first joined the fellow townsmen of She County, Huizhou Prefecture.

Xu Dong's group summoned "to lure the squads to the Zhejiang Sea, to and from Shuangyu Port to engage in trade." Xu Dong and Li Bullow were successively wiped out by Zhu Wan of the Ming army, and Wang Zhi then started a new job and established himself as the ship owner. "So he started a evil plot, recruited the despair, seduced the Japanese Dora, Jiro, Shisuke, Shiro and others to build giant ships, and could accommodate 2,000 people in one hundred and twenty steps, and could run horses." Wang Zhi became the leader of a large armed maritime merchant group in East Asia at that time, and accepted the invitation of the Daming Ming Matsuura Takanobu Matsuura, the Daimu Daoshima of Kyushu, which belonged to the Hirado Island of the Hibishima offshore of Kyushu as a base to engage in maritime trade.

The records here are recorded in the "Four Assistances".

The Sisuke, who Masara is about to deal with, was originally the leader of a group of pirates in Tangjinwan. Later, he was defeated in a conflict with the Hodo navy. He had to flee to the pirate paradise Gojima, with his remaining soldiers. He has temporarily defected to Hirado Matsuura's family. After many considerations, Masarara can basically confirm that this Sisuke is the Japanese pirates who followed Wang Zhi to invade Ming Kingdom. Even if it is not, he can only blame the name he named is too unlucky. He also happened to be a pirate. With the mentality of rather than letting go, Masarara made up his mind to kill this guy.

As for the pirate Wusuke who was entrenched in the area of ​​the Higashiguchi River, it was confirmed that it was Shisuke's younger brother. As the saying goes, he never leaves his brother. Although it is not recorded in history books, it is impossible for him to follow his brother to plunder the Ming Kingdom in the face of huge temptations of interests. Therefore, Masayoshi's goal is very clear, to kill the devil who invaded the Ming Dynasty first.

Of course, Zhengliang did not kill people for the sake of killing people. But these two pirates were all robbers, which were different from other ordinary fishermen who took the pirate path due to life. In the information collected by Yiruo, Zhengliang knew that these two pirates were all ungrateful wolves who were not well-fried. Even if they had a talk with them, they didn't know when they would bite the mud. Therefore, these two pirates could not stay.
