On May 12, the ninth year of Astronomy, early in the morning.

There was not a drop of rain for a while, and it finally started drizzling today. The flowers and plants that looked a little shriveled outside the window seemed to have found nectar and became beautiful overnight.

Masara did not sleep well last night. First, because he suddenly arrived at a strange place and was not used to the tatami here. Secondly, he received good news from Daxie Kyushu last night, and the Fujiwara family territory had been occupied. In this way, within one day, the Luo family occupied three powerful territories, which was as fast as lightning, so Masara was so excited that he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

Early in the morning, with panda eyes instructed Yukisuke and Tadajiro to pay attention to the matters left behind, Masara and Togo Heiji set out separately. Togo Heiji took Sahararo to Chemu Village with two squads, while Masarara took Xiao's surname Shingoro to Fujihi Village under the leadership of two squads. Originally, Masarara planned to take Xiao's surname to go alone, but the retainers persuaded that there were still many squad soldiers in the territory who had not returned home due to concerns about being implicated. These squads even included several squads from the Xiaomu family and the squads of the Fujihihisa family. One of the sons who fled from the Xiaomu family had not been found yet. For safety, it would be better to bring two squads with them. Masara thought about it and felt that it was reasonable. Even if he had good force, he was still careful to make a thousand-year-old ship.

Braving the drizzle and walking on the already wet muddy hill road, Zhengliang looked around and saw the trees around him. Looking carefully, the bright green leaves were covered with jade beads, shining in the morning sun. Zhengliang dared not sigh in such a mood. This is my territory. It has been nearly a month and a half since I was here. I was originally alone, but now I am the lord of a small land. Or at the beginning I felt lonely and confused, or even helpless. Every time I was quiet at night, I would be awakened by the strange air around me, but now I feel like home. Good, this small territory is my home.

My thoughts returned to reality. After looking at the two guards nearby, Masayoshi smiled slightly. Then he suddenly thought that in such weather, it might be very uncomfortable for the raiders hiding in the wild. I believe many people will return home, and the speed of stability of the newly occupied land can be greatly accelerated.

In this way, while enjoying the scenery along the way, we move forward slowly.

After more than an hour of walking, Masayoro and his party arrived at Fujihira Castle without any danger. At this moment, it was quiet outside Fujihira Castle. Oshirokoji, who was cleaning up supplies in the city, heard that the Lord Lord had arrived and went out immediately to greet him.

The two sat down in the lord's mansion.

Osaki Kyuji bowed and then reported, "Your Highness, your subordinates live up to their responsibilities. They have captured this city last night and cleared the unstable factors in the territory overnight. All the male members of the Fujiwara family have been cut and killed, while the rest of the family need to wait for your Highness's arrangements."

"Well. Let's follow the original method, move to Nogao Village, share the land for them, and let them settle down, don't insult them," Masarara said after thinking about it. After hearing Masarara's arrangement, Osara Kyuji secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If Masarara planned to see these families, there might be something wrong with him, because Fujiwara Hiroshi's wife was still very young and beautiful. At that time, if Masarara got up and took her as a concubine like Masarako, what should she do if she gave birth to a son? In this way, other retainers would have objections, and it would inevitably cause internal instability of the Luo family, which had just improved. Of course, if Masarara knew what Osara Kyuji's current thoughts, she would probably say to the sky that Masarako was just a maid, not a concubine. Masarako and I were absolutely innocent, okay, and it was not a wife who was controlling.

"As for the people in command, my subordinates have arranged for surrendered peasants outside the city to comfort them today. The commotion caused by the sudden change has settled. But some people in command petitioned to release the captured peasants," said Daxi Guozhi, who continued, "In terms of materials, my subordinates are counting."

"Those prisoners should be imprisoned for the time being. After the raids in the territory basically return to their respective homes, they will be released." Zhengliang was worried that in this special period, these peasant soldiers would be motivated by those who are interested to cause chaos. "How is the defense here?" Compared to these, Zhengliang is more concerned about the defense of the newly occupied land.

"There have been captured more than 20 people who attempt to report to outside the territory so far last night," Osaki Kyuji said with a serious expression, "Most are the townsmen of the Harafujiwara family, and a small number are the wanderers of the rest of the families. They underestimated the abilities of the samurai trained by His Highness himself, and were easily captured."

"Hmph, these people have been demoted to slaves in the territory. At present, the territory is just short of a lot of free labor," Masayoshi snorted and said angrily, "Immediately arrange to form a patrol team to strengthen the investigation of suspicious figures in the territory." At this time, these "boy scouts" are still easy to form. Just give each family some food. At the same time, you can control these children and monitor the actions of the people in the territory.

"Yes, Your Highness, my subordinates will go down and make arrangements immediately." Osaki Kyuji felt ashamed of his failure to deal with these issues in time. "In addition, the territory of the Hara Fujiwara family borders the Tsura family in the south and the Oda family in the northeast. After recruiting more than 20 peasant soldiers in the territory, they mixed with their own troops and arranged checkpoints at the two junctions. At present, there are less than 10 footballers in Fujiwara City."

"Well, I have arranged for Hirozo and Heiji to be responsible for the territorial entrances and exits along the Fujihi Lake and the north-north entrances and exits of the Nagakura family. If necessary, they will support the checkpoints in the northeast," Masarara said. "At the same time, the 20 samurai warriors from Hirozo have begun to come here, and I guess they will arrive in the afternoon."

"Your Highness is indeed making careful arrangements." Daxi Guozhi was worried about the defense of the newly occupied territory. Unexpectedly, Zhengliang had arranged everything. "In addition, according to the information of our family's investigation in the morning, the powerful people near our territory were all moved, especially the Chongliang family."

"Have it started really? Humph, Masarara continued, "Kuoji, the acceptance here and the defense of the Oda family in the northeast will be left to you. I will immediately arrive at the junction with the Chongliang family. After Guangzong's reinforcements arrived, they would come to me to meet immediately. I want to see if the Chongliang family has the courage to fight with the family."

"Yes, Your Highness", Daxi Guozhi bowed and accepted the order.

.............

At the foot of the mountain, in Feiliang City and Chongliang's House.

"What?", Tsuyorijiro was shocked, "What did you say? The Fujiwara family was defeated?"

A detective at the door of the meeting hall trembled and replied in a low voice, "Yes, Your Highness, at noon yesterday, the Xiaomu family and the Fujiwara family who were fighting fiercely had their advantages. The head of the Tianyuan family was surrounded, but suddenly was attacked by a team of soldiers. The two coalition forces were defeated. The villain immediately rushed back overnight through the forest path when the two soldiers were disintegrating.

"Which team belongs to that team? Tell me quickly." Chongliang Zhizong began to feel that things had deviated from his plan. He did not expect that the two coalition forces were defeated, and they were defeated so quickly.

"The villain doesn't know either," the detective reported.

"What? Don't know?", the seldom angry Shinryo-jizong was furious.

"The team of men was wearing a white military flag with a goshawk painted on it. The villain had never seen such a family pattern before." He was afraid that the lord would cut him down in anger, so the detective immediately reported loudly.

"Gaoying?" Chongliang Zhizong paused slightly. There was no powerful family in Dongsongura, which was like this. "Hurry, let Lord Chongtian come here and gather troops immediately." Chongliang Zhizong would never allow anyone to steal his doctor's belongings, he wanted to act immediately.

"Sir", as soon as he finished speaking, Kizao Shigeta had already walked over quickly. It was obvious that there was an urgent report, "The Oki family and the Fujiwara family coalition were defeated. Now Oki Daitaki, who fled to his territory, is outside the city and asks the Oki to make decisions for him."

"Hmph, useless guy, the more than 200 people's troops were defeated like a mountain? No see." Chongliang Zhizong, who had just known the result of the war, quickly calmed down. "I have ordered the gathering of troops and seize Fujihiro Castle first."

"Sir, the detectives sent by my family to Fujihiro Castle and Tashi Castle have not been sent back until last night," Kizuo Shigeta revealed an even more worrying situation.

"You mean, the border blockade has been strengthened there?" Chongliang Zhizong pointed to the north.

"I'm afraid this is the case, or after the two families of Tahara and Fujihide were defeated, they took out the defeated troops and returned to their respective territories. In order to prevent the coveting of the other powerful people, they strengthened their defenses in their own territories. But the most likely thing is that the team that suddenly emerged took advantage of the fisherman and occupied one of the territories," said Kizuo Chongta with a serious expression.

Chongliang Zhizong paced, pondered his head, and then suddenly stopped and looked at the question and answer of the question and answer of the Muzao Chongtian, "What do you think our family should be?"

"Sir, I know nothing about the situation there at present. The minister suggests sending additional detectives to infiltrate and investigate information. In addition, I can use Xiaomu Dataka outside the city," said Muzao Chongtian.

"Hmm?", Tsuyorijizo looked at Kizao Shigeta and signaled him to continue.

"Send a mediation envoy to test it under the name of mediating for the Xiaomu family," said Kizuo Shigeta immediately.

"Okay, let's just do it for the time being, but the peasant soldiers gather first, and once they find out, send troops immediately. As for Oki Dataka, it's up to you to arrange it for the time being." Chongliang Zhizong nodded helplessly, "In addition, who can take on this mission?"

"Let's do it for the sake of the sacred son," Mu Zao Chongtian bowed and bowed.

"Then let it go, let's make arrangements right away," said Chongliang Zhizong.

"Yes, Your Highness." Mu Zao Chongtian felt relieved when he heard that Emperor Chongliang had agreed to his arrangement.
