Chapter 778
As for Maori Yuan's plan, Masayoshi was not the worm in his stomach, so he naturally didn't know. Although Tao Longfang's envoy made the request to discuss peace with the Luo family and get Ouchi Yoshinaga as a puppet, one of the conditions in his letters made Masayoshi very moved, so he finally agreed to Tao Longfang. After he fulfilled the conditions in the letter, he would discuss peace with the Tao family and send Ouchi Yoshinaga.
Tao Longfang was also very sincere in discussing peace with the Luo family. Shortly after Jiang Liangrongfang returned, the Naito family indeed stopped increasing troops in Katsuo Castle in the southern part of Nagamon Kingdom. Although the troops in this place were not reduced, it temporarily avoided the Luo family from falling into a fierce battle with Nagamon Kingdom in Fengqian Kingdom.
While receiving good news, there was also bad news. The first bad news was that after returning to the Luo family, Shan Zhongju, who had just been defeated by the Luo family a few days ago, returned to the city of Songshan City, he was mobilizing his own territory and military force despite the complaints of the people, in an attempt to carry out a cage battle in Songshan City, and blocking the Luo family's pace of invasion of Fengqi in Songshan City.
In addition, the cause of the fire in Yuxu Mountain has also been found out.
The fire on Yusu Mountain did originate in the central region at the junction of Fengqian and Juichan. What shocked the Luo family even more was that the day before the fire broke out in the mountains, Akitsuki Wenzhong and Aso Takashi happened to lead the two families' important officials and main forces into Yusu Mountain.
At first, Masara was not very convinced of this news, but as news from the Qiuyue family and Aso family arrived one after another, Masarara finally became convinced.
"Lord. The forest fire in Yusu Mountain has been going on for several days. Judging from the fire, unless there will be heavy rain recently, it will be difficult to pause in a short time. If the people from the Akitsuki family and Aso family are really in the mountains at this time, then with the current fire, it will be a lot of danger." Yamamoto Kanasuke said immediately.
As Yamamoto Kazusuke said, that night, a fire broke out in the surrounding area of the camp of Akitsuki family and Aso family. The autumn was high and the things were cool. In addition, a large number of dead branches and leaves were accumulated in the forest, so the fire spread rapidly. Not only was the Qiutsuki family and Aso family and others surrounded by the fire. Even the setting fire to Sugitsuki family and the fire were surrounded by the fire.
From a modern point of view, Sugishi Shigesuke is a typical rich second generation. How could he expect a seemingly perfect fire plan against the enemy to eventually turn into a forest fire that spreads to the entire Yuxu Mountain?
The sky covered with wildfires, not only Fengmai Kingdom, but also the raging mountain fires can be seen in the territory of the Kumai Kingdom, but also in the areas far away in Zhoufangtan, Xiangtan, Seto Inland Sea, even Zhoufangtan, Nagamon Kingdom and other places, you can see the thick smoke columns above Yusu Mountain.
The Qiuyue family, Aso family, the Shan family and others who lacked the knowledge of escape from the fire were either burned to death by the fire or suffocated to death by thick smoke. In the end, the two coalition forces of the two families, led by Qiuyue Wenzhong and Aso Takashi, two families with dozens of retainers and thousands of soldiers were buried in the sea of fire in Yuxu Mountain. They were buried with them, including the initiator of the fire, Sugishi Shigesuke and more than a hundred Shan family members.
Shortly after the family governor and his retainers entered Yuxu Mountain, a mountain fire broke out. The Qiuyue family and the Aso family fell into chaos. At this time, the legitimate son of the two families, Qiuyue family, Ao Yue family, was only a few years old, and Aso Takashi's legitimate son was less than two years old. What's more serious is that at this time, the heirs of the two families were still hostages of the three parties in the Luo family territory. In this case, it naturally caused great chaos.
"Lord. If the Qiuyue family and the Aso family are really buried in the fire this time, it will be a good time for our family to control these two families!" Another military advisor, Kakuma Shisou, said.
"No, lord! This time, in addition to the two families, the two families also lost a large number of retainers and elite troops in the army at once. It is indeed the best time for the family to enter these two families." Yamamoto Kanasuke also spoke.
"Oh? What are the suggestions of the two military advisors?" After Kazukuma Shisong said this by Kawakuma Kamikakuma, Masara really had the idea of taking the opportunity to annex the Akitsuki family and the Aso family.
"The family can enter the two companies under the banner of allies, and then help the two legitimate sons who are hostage to succeed as the head of the family. Then, using the excuse of the two companies being young, they will take over the management authority of the two companies, slowly cut off the strength of the two companies, and finally control the two companies." Kakukuma Shisen said immediately.
"Mr. Shizong's plan is good, but it is just a slow plan. My subordinates think that given the current situation facing our family, if this plan is used, there may be conflicts with some powerful retainers of the two families several times during this period. My subordinates have a quick plan like a quick plan that is like a slashing mess, but I don't know if the lord is willing to listen." Yamamoto Kanasuke said.
"Oh? Don't be wary of anything!" Zhengliang said immediately.
"For Aso's family, the lord may not prevent Aso Shina, who was visiting the family at this time, as a side room, and then directly settled in Aso's family in the name of his in-laws to assist Aso's young nephew to inherit the family governor, and then quickly take control of Aso's family."
"What about Qiuyue's family?"
"Have you forgotten it? Qiuyue Wenzhong's second son and his mother were settled in the house of Shenwu at this time. Lord Shenwu was also visiting Qiuyue's family. Our family can recommend Qiuyue Wenzhong's second son to inherit the position of the governor of Qiuyue's family in the name of Lord Shenwu, and then our family will take the opportunity to directly control Qiuyue's family."
"Yes, since most of the retainers of the two families and elite troops died in the sea of fire this time, our family just happened to control the two families by supporting force of oppression." At this time, Kakukuma Shisen also agreed.
"But in order to prevent the Sugi family in the southeast and the Nagato family in the north from Nagato family in the north from the back of their family after learning of the changes in the Tsukimae country, our family should also be prepared." At this time, Yamamoto Kanasuke reminded.
"This matter is not difficult. Lord, the minister, is willing to rush to Nagato's country's Nagato country to prevent the Nagato family together with Lord Execution. As for the defense of Toyoshimasa, the minister suggests that Yoshida Shigemasa is responsible for the main bus. Yoshida Shigemasa is stationed in Nagato Castle and Komiyaki Castle of the former Nagato family. Even if Sugishiju attacks again, there is no need to worry. In addition, in order to increase the chaos in Toyoshimasa, Nagato and other places, our family should send a large number of detectives into the two places to spread rumors such as the Nagato family and Sugi family are accomplices of Tao Longfang's plot to rebel. They can even send Blackhawks to these areas to pretend to be bandits, while the navigators enter the coastal areas of these two places to play pirates, increasing the chaos in these areas, so that these two families have no time to take care of themselves." Kakuma Shizuo said immediately.
"As for Okura Castle and Monji Castle, please send the lord to the ministers. Please ensure the stability of these two places and the connection with Nagato and the rest of Toshimae." Yamamoto Kazusuke also said at this time, "As for the lord, he personally led his army back to Chiqian and captured the Akitsuki family and Aso family in one fell swoop."
"Okay, since that's the case, I'll ask the two military advisors." Masara finally agreed with Yamamoto Kansuke's suggestion and Kakuma Shisen's suggestion on defense against Nagato and Toyoki.
