"Sir, these are letters from several nearby castles that are interested in surrendering." In the evaluation room of the Kyushu Hinata Kōka, an intelligence officer who had been lurking near the castle for several years, gave several letters to Masato Takasaka who was sitting in the main seat.

Just this morning, Masatoshi Takasaka transported Li Huamei's three small big tubes outside the Tuyu County City, and directly fired fire to attack the city. As a result, beyond his expectations, the Iton family defenders in the Tuyu County City were frightened and Duyu County City was soon lost under a strong attack by the Luo family. Most of the defenders in the city surrendered one after another, and even the Sahiro family who fled here did not escape this time, so they simply accepted their fate and surrendered.

The only thing that made Masao Nobuki Takasaka feel sorry for was that some of the Ito family members led by Yuki Ito escaped from behind while it was in chaos. The most hateful thing was that when Yuki Ito escaped, he even took away his two five-year-old sons, who were the five-year-old and one-year-old sons.

Of course, this time, Masatoshi Takasaka and Li Huamei made great contributions. After capturing the capital, Masatoshi Takasaka and Li Huamei had a brief discussion, and then immediately divided the troops into two groups again.

Li Huamei was responsible for sending some objects in the city to the lord Zhengliang. At the same time, after reassembling the big tube onto the ship, Li Huamei will also lead the navy to continue to the south along the coast of Hinata country, and the target is naturally the smallest navy left in Ito's family.

Speaking of which, these Itong's navy troops were probably defeated by the Luo family's navy several times in the past, so they seemed very cunning. Almost after seeing the fleet of the Luo family's navy, they fled immediately, resulting in Li Huamei's failure to capture them all. This time, Li Huamei was determined to eliminate these navy troops no matter what.

As for Masatoshi Takasaka, he was responsible for staying in the capital of Yu County. On the one hand, he consolidated the previous achievements. On the other hand, he cooperated with the actions of various Luo family troops who had already begun to move around the border of the Hokou Kingdom and the Satsuma Kingdom. As a nail, he was nailed to the heart of the Itong family, thus distracting the Itong family's attention. It made it impossible for him to gather all the resources in the territory to fight against the Luo family in a short time.

But what Takasaka Masatoshi didn't expect was that on the afternoon of the same day when he had occupied Ito Family Furnishing City, an intelligence officer with the token of the identification certificate of the Luo Family Intelligence Pavilion came directly to him and told him that because of the fall of the capital of the county town, some nearby villages had already intentionally surrendered to the Luo Family. This almost made Masatoshi Takasaka laugh wildly. This was simply a military merit that was given to him, and Masatoshi Takasaka could not be unhappy.

"Okay, OK, OK!"

After receiving the letter from the intelligence staff, Masashi Takasaka immediately opened it and read it. After reading the last letter, Masashi Takasaka immediately said a few good words. From the letter, it can be seen that these villages were indeed willing to surrender.

In fact, Masatoshi Takasaka didn't know that it was because the fall of the capital in the county town would actually have a great impact on the Iton family.

Just taking the city walls around the capital city as an example, the sound of the big tube was very loud when it was launched. Moreover, these city walls also sent personnel to witness the scene of the Luo family's army attacking the capital city with their own eyes. As these people returned to report, the guards of the surrounding city walls were already scared. In addition, the deliberately exaggerated propaganda by the personnel of the Luo family's intelligence club that had long been lurking in the local area, everyone was panicked, fearing that the soldiers of the Luo family's army would come to them next.

At the same time, the territory of the Ito family in Hinata is really empty at this time. In order to support the Saki family and ensure the security of the border area, most of the Ito family's troops (including most of the local young and strong gangs) and core retainers were concentrated in Ogawa Pavilion in the western part of Hinata, Kakufu Castle in the western part of Hinata, Matsuyama Castle in the southern part of Hinata, Matsuo Castle in the northern part of Hinata, Matsuo Castle in the northern part of Hinata, Coastal Navy and the support army led by Ito Yosuke.

The defensive system that seemed to be solid was originally solid, but the Luo family found a breakthrough in Matsuo Castle, which scared the navy troops on the coast who were responsible for assisting in the defense of Matsuo Castle to death. So with the opportunity of Matsuo Castle as a breakthrough, Masato Takasaka and Li Huamei had an idea, joined forces to advance together on land and water, and quickly rushed into the inner area of ​​Ito's family along the coast of Hinata.

At this time, most of the retainers who were the backbone were not present, so it was impossible for all localities to organize resistance forces in a timely and quickly and effectively in a short period of time. Moreover, because the main forces and even the main young and strong were not present, various places were unable to mobilize a large number of temporary troops in a timely manner. What's more serious is that because it was the spring plowing season, the spring plowing at home was originally affected because the main labor force in the family was recruited and left, but now it suddenly took away the remaining labor force in the family again, which was naturally resisted by the people. In this way, the gathering time of resistance forces in various places was delayed to a certain extent.

Under such circumstances, I suddenly saw that the capital of the Duyu County, which was the center of the Iton family, was suddenly captured by the enemy, which had a great impact on the surrounding forts. Naturally, many fence-bearers began to surrender.

"Then, let me ask you next." Since someone was planning to surrender, Masatoshi Takasaka was naturally very welcome, and the intelligence cabinet staff in front of him naturally led the troops he sent to receive the relevant fortresses as an envoy. Anyway, he had sent people to return to the northern part of Hinaga Kingdom, which was occupied by the Luo family, and requested to send more logistics peasant soldiers and territory receiving personnel to arrive.

The rapid progress between him and Li Huamei did indeed surprise everyone in the Luo family. It is reported that the young master Luo Family Furnishing City Xuefu City in Feiqian Kingdom also personally praised him and Li Huamei at the assessment meeting. In order to cooperate more quickly with the progress they made in Hinata, the young master Huiliang even ordered the mobilization of a group of new peasant soldiers in the territory to speed up the acceptance of the new territory.

In the next few days, with the help of local Luo Family Intelligence Pavilion personnel, Takasaka Masatoshi quickly accepted the forts such as Takashi, Tomota Castle, Suibei Castle and other cities near the Duyu County City.

Of course, at present, Masatoshi Takasaka mainly accepts the castle and territory of the Ito family. As for the fence-like wealthy families and temple shrine forces around, Masatoshi Takasaka only accepted their submission letter and did not take action. After all, it is not the time to have conflicts with these forces. Everything has to be completely controlled. Only after the Luo family has enough troops to enter the Hinata Kingdom will they completely show up with these forces.

Just as Masano Takasaka and Li Huamei continued to expand in Hinata, several armies located at the border of Higashigoku were officially launched after receiving the orders of the Lord Gong Zhengliang.

First, the second standing team of the Luo Family Navy in Amankatan was in the middle of the main general, and the deputy generals were Fukuda, Murakami Ryoka, Murakami Naoki, Kakogi Town and others approached the coast of Satsuma State, causing the Shimazu Family Navy to go to sea to intercept it while urgently. On the other hand, they asked for help from the Ming Pirate Fleet headed by Wang Zhi in the nearby waters. However, because Wang Zhi himself was unable to find him for a while, they could not invite the help of the Ming Pirate Fleet.

Secondly, with Kakai's direct commander (Suyun) as the main commander, Shiga Kentaka, Anbu Ministry, Rukami Hirosa, Sano Ministry, Honda Masato and others as the deputy commander, the seventh standing team of the Luo family as the main force, and three thousand temporary peasant soldiers as the auxiliary. A total of nearly 5,000 troops took the battle from Minamata Castle at the junction of Minamata and Satsuma Kingdom, and directly entered the territory of the Shimazu family.

Finally, the commander of the Yuanchongji Nobuo, Takeuchi Hatsuka, Okawaya Junwei, Kitahara Shinaka, Hoshisaki, Daishima Shinaka, Sano Takaju, and Naoshima Kojima as the deputy generals. The sixth standing team of the Luo family was the main force, with 4,000 temporary peasant soldiers as the auxiliary. The troops were divided into two groups, from the Hinagai and Yuyama Island at the junction of Hinagai and Himego, to the Kakuto Castle and Ogawa Temple in the Ito family.

The Luo family's multiple attacks immediately shocked everyone in the entire Nankyushu area, especially the attack on two important border towns in the Hinata Kingdom, which directly led to the inability of these two cities to send troops to rescue the crisis in the central region of Hinata Kingdom.

After that, with the large number of information from the Luo Family Intelligence Club personnel lurking everywhere, news such as the capture of Ito Family Furnishing City in the county, the central and northern parts of Hinata were occupied by the Luo Family, the governors of Ito Family and Shimazu Family, and the elite teams under their command were besieged by the Luo Family, etc., spreading everywhere.

Under such circumstances, various regions in the Southern Jiuzhou immediately turbulent and undercurrents.

Unlike the power centralization system that the Luo family has always implemented, most of the powerful names in the Warring States Period are dominated by a ruling system with varying degrees of united interest groups. Such a ruling method can be dangerous even if it pays attention to power centralization. For example, the Oda family, which was at its peak in history, was immediately separated with the death of the powerful figure Oda Nobunaga.

The Iton family interest group, which has a lower degree of unity, naturally has more internal harms in such a situation. While the Iton family's governor is not dead and the main force is still there, most local small powerful people have secretly expressed their intention to surrender to the generals of the Luo family's army.

In fact, in history, when the Iton family was the most powerful, it was once known as the Daming of the forty-eight castles. However, after being killed by the Shimazu family in the famous Kisakihara Hokage, a large number of fence-headed grass took the initiative to surrender to the Shimazu family, so the entire Iton family territory immediately ran apart.

Nowadays, the same is true. When a large number of retainers and elite soldiers were restrained and besieged by various members of the Luo family, a large number of fence-bearing grass emerged. But it was also a situation that was inevitable in the Warring States Period. After all, everyone is really trying everything to continuate the family and survive.

Zhengliang must not like such fiction-breasted men. After all, such fiction-breasted men will inevitably be shaken or even betrayed before the Luo family is under a major test, and the existence of such a wealthy family is contrary to the laws implemented by the Luo family. Therefore, Zhengliang generally accepts the surrender of these fiction-breasted men first, and then after preparation, he then transfers all of these rich families, directly transfers them to areas that have completely adapted to the laws of the Luo family, forcing them to accept the laws of the Luo family.

Of course, under such circumstances, in addition to the undercurrents of these fence-bearing grass to protect themselves, the local tyrants who had been against the Shimazu family and Ito family have also responded.

First of all, in the Satsuma, the Kitahara family and the Ling Ka family, which had been destroyed by the Shimazu family, under such circumstances, the orphans of the rich who had been hiding in various places immediately emerged to cause trouble.

Secondly, at the southernmost end of Nanhigao, most of the territory has been seized by the Ito family, leaving only two and three castles hidden in the mountains and forests of the southern Hinagao country, and the Toyoshu Shimazu family, are now fully attacking and heading towards the Ito family in the important town of Matsuyama Castle in the southern part of the South.
