Chapter 865

As the Luo family defeated the Kobayakawa family and occupied Mihara Castle, the gateway to the west of Beihou Kingdom, it also indicates that the Luo family's power officially extended into the Beihou Kingdom region... This impact was quite huge, and even affected the Beihou Kingdom region in the east of Beihou Kingdom.

Especially the many small wealthy families in Beihou Kingdom who participated in the Battle of Itsujima and were later abandoned by the Maori family. With the help of the Luo family, they all followed the Luo family's army back to Beihou Kingdom and BeiChina. After returning to the family, they betrayed the Maori family and moved closer to the Luo family, helping the Luo family gain a foothold in Beihou Kingdom.

Maori Yuan had no choice but to rebel from these small wealthy families. After all, in order to avoid being besieged by the Luo family in Itsukushima and becoming the turtle of the Luo family, when the ship was limited, he could only give up these small wealthy families. He chose those powerful families to escape together. As a result, the Luo family took the opportunity to win over these small wealthy families and made them the pioneers of the country, China, and even the former country to resist the Maori family.

As for the great families who were rescued from Itsujima by Maori Yuan, they finally returned home at this time. They did, in accordance with Maori Yuan's original plan, and were trying their best to help the Maori family maintain their power in Beihouguo and other places. However, because these families were also seriously injured in the Battle of Itsujima (basically, only a few important personnel in the family fled home, and as for ordinary retainers and soldiers, they were abandoned in Itsujima. At this time, they either became prisoners of the Luo family or had become a dead bone), so the family's own strength weakened and there was also a commotion, which could not suppress the small families who were allowed to return to the Beihouguo by the Luo family with their own military power.

In the east, those rich families who did not respond to the request of the Maori family and participated in the Battle of Itsujima. Among them, both the big and small families were watching the changes in the Beihou Kingdom and ready to make some amazing moves at any time. Therefore, at this time, the Maori family and the Beihou Kingdom were weakened after the Battle of Itsujima, and the Maori family had to weaken their power in these two places. When the Luo family entered strongly, there was already undercurrents below, and there would be a storm at any time.

Fortunately, before the Battle of Itsujima, Mori Mori inherited his sons to some of the great families in these regions. To a certain extent, the Maori family's sphere of influence in these regions was also ensured to a certain extent the stability of the Maori family's sphere of influence in these regions.

The newly established "four-person collegial" system also ensured the stability of the family. Before the decisive battle of Itsujima, Mori Mori originally planned to give his legitimate son Mori Takamoto the position of governor after the end of this battle, but he retreated to the backstage to support him. After all, he was already very old and should have a little rest. As a result, he had to stand up with an old bone, personally preside over the family affairs, and endured with the Luo family.

It can be said that in the face of the invasion of the Luo family, Mori Moon had almost exhausted all his strength. He first sent people to Zhou Fangguo, Nagamon, Anyiguo and other places, trying to incite the local temple shrine forces to resist the Luo family together with the Maori family. However, until now, the temple shrine forces in these areas have not responded at all.

Secondly, he also sent envoys to the Nizi family, the Sanhao family and the powerful people in the Southern Kyushu, hoping to establish diplomatic relations with these noble families.

For the Nizi family, Mori Mori naturally hoped to establish an alliance with the other party to avoid the Maori family being hit by the Nizi family and the Luo family. Unfortunately, the envoy sent to the Nizi family was quickly driven back. Kyuhiro Nizi obviously planned to take advantage of the Maori family's opportunity to lose power and take advantage of the Maori family's invasion. For this reason, Mori Mori was even more eager to prompt a ceasefire with the Luo family.

When sending an envoy to the Sanhao family, he naturally hopes to unite with the Sanhao family to deal with the Luo family. After all, as the Luo family enters the coast of Beihou Kingdom, it is obviously a conflict of interests with the Sanhao family in the local waters.

As for the Nan Kyushu area, it is hoped that there will be a relief for the Maori family to reduce the pressure from the Luo family, and through mutual cooperation between the two sides, the expansion of the Luo family's power for the other side from the north and south.

Finally, Morimoto sent an envoy to Kyoto area with a large amount of money and gifts to see the Yixiang Sect host of Ishiyama Obo, hoping that the other party could call on Zhou Fangguo, Nagato, Anyiguo and even the local Yixiang Sect believers in the Yuhou Kingdom. At the same time, they also hoped to invite the shogunate court to mediate.

Maori Moto's ultimate goal was to truce the Luo family so that the Maori family could breathe a sigh of relief. At the same time, he also hoped to exchange his third son, Takake Kohachikawa from the Luo family. Although the Kohachikawa Ichikawa in the Maori family's two-gun system was captured by the Luo family and completely occupied the territory of the Luo family, as long as the third son, Kohachikawa Takake Kohachikawa, was exchanged back, Maori Moto would have the confidence to build a Kohachikawa system. Of course, Maori Moto was also prepared to seek a lot of benefits by the Luo family for this.

What just disappointed Maori Yuan was that he had made so many responses, and only the Nizi family had responded, and it was a failed response. As for other places, due to distance, there was no response or the messenger who responded was returning, which made Maori Yuan feel a little urgent.

Just as Morimoto sighed in his family yard, in a courtyard in Toda Castle, Toshida Castle, Izumoku, the Nizi family, was also sighing.

He had just finished his attack in the United States. The reason for his attack was that the Urako family of Beiqian was trying to get involved in the sphere of influence of the Niko family in the United States. So in September last year (it happened to be when the Battle of Itsushima occurred. It was estimated that this incident had a plan by Maori Mori. Maori Mori obviously did not want to be attacked by the Niko family when the Mori family was fully responding to the Battle of Itsushima. So after some calculations, the Niko family had something to do), he led the army to officially launch the Urako family. Although he repelled the invasion of the Urako family, he was also repelled by the Urako family when he took the opportunity to attack the Urako family.

When he led his army back to Izumo Kingdom, he learned about the specific situation of the Battle of Itsuki, but the battle was over at this time. There were three main reasons why he sighed.

First, he was envious, jealous and hatred for Masaru Luo. Compared with Masaru Luo, he found that his family's power and his own achievements were not as good as the other party. Although the shogunate had given him the official position of guardian of the Eight Kingdoms (actually he did not fully control the territory of the Eight Kingdoms), it was far from the territory that Masaru Luo had in his hands.

Second, he only now realized the importance of the New Palace Party to his military power. After the lack of the New Palace Party, the combat effectiveness of the Nizi family's army had dropped significantly, otherwise this time the Urasui family would not have been driven out of the prefecture country.

Third, since he had just returned from the army, the army needed to rest before going to war again. At this time, the Mori family, the mortal enemy of the Nizi family, was invaded by the Luo family. It was the best time for the Nizi family to go to the Mori family. Seeing that he was about to miss this opportunity, Nizi Haruki naturally sighed.

Just as Niko Haruki sighed a long time ago, in the Yizi City of Beiqian, the Ukita Nao family, the Ukita family, also sighed. Of course, he was not lamenting, but admiration.

As a former rich man of the Mori family, the previous Maori family persuaded the Ukita family to take the lead in Misako, which was secretly plucked. Even when the Sokita family was hesitating, it was the Ukita Nao family who offered advice to make the Sokita family determined. Of course, although the Ukita family's strategy in the United States was repelled by the Niko family this time, the Sokita family also gained a lot of benefits from it. As the Maori family secretly formed an alliance, the Ukita family naturally made a lot of profits from the Mori family.

Since they were secretly ally of the Maori family, the Ukita family naturally became the military force of the Maori family in the name of the retainers of the Urakami family. And the important member of the family, Hideaki Togawa, was the main general who led his own army this time. After learning about the Maori family's defeat in the Itsujima War, he thought that Hideaki Togawa and others would not have the chance to return home, but Hideaki Togawa unexpectedly led people back safely.

At this time, the details about Itsuki Battle of the First World War gradually spread to the people of the Samurai Shoku who escaped from the battlefield. The Ukita Nao family, who was extremely concerned about this battle, naturally immediately asked Hidea Togawa to give a detailed description for him.

"Shui'an, in the future, you should be the messenger of the contact between our family and the Luo family. You must not let others know about this." After Togawa Hideaki detailed what Togawa Hideaki experienced during the battle of Itsukijima, the Naoka Ukita family immediately decided to send Togawa Hideaki secretly to the Luo family as soon as possible to establish diplomatic relations with the other party.

As for the allies, the Ukita Nao family did not think much about it. Anyway, as long as others don’t let others know, especially the Maori family, it’s just that. Moreover, the reason why Togawa Hideaki and others were able to come back safely this time was entirely because Togawa Hideaki and others pretended to be ordinary ronin to capture Mori Motozumi’s third son, Takake Kohayakawa, and handed over to the Luo family as a bargaining chip to gain their own freedom.

And the Ukita family also had a relationship with the Luo family, which was the best result. Although he didn't know why the Luo family's supervisor would pay attention to a small wealthy family like him in the prefecture country (the Ukita Nao family at this time certainly didn't know how famous he would be in history in the future), as long as he had to get a relationship with a giant like the Luo family, the Ukita family would definitely get enough benefits from it.
