Ask The Dao

An Izumo map was slowly unfolded, and Duan Yu waved his hand, and a dagger was nailed to the coastline somewhere in the East: "Our goal this time is here!"

Everyone leaned forward, Ye Zhiyu couldn't help muttering: "Yuejianshancheng? Miyamoto?"

"Yes, this family is a family member of the Heike family. It has 300,000 stones and is located in the rear. The most important thing is that it has a port!"

Duan Yu nodded and said.

Next, Ye Zhiyu explained in detail, letting everyone know the strength of this Miyamoto family.

Based on the mobilization ability of 250 people from Izumo Daimyo Wanshi, it is roughly estimated that this family can mobilize 7,500 troops at the limit.

Of course, doing so in fact will inevitably lead to a lack of strong labor and farmland abandonment.

Moreover, even though the Miyamoto family was located in the rear, it was not affected by the war-if the Fujiwara family wanted to fight it, apart from the sea, they had to break Hirano Castle first. But he must support the master’s battle. Regardless of the last big defeat, this time the master summoned four thousand soldiers and the remaining samurai to go to Kyoto for frontline reinforcements.

It can be said that the defense within the feudal clan has been emptied.

"I don't understand!"

Shui Sheng looked at the long coastline: "Why didn't the Fujiwara family think of organizing a navy army to harass the Heike rear when the Fujiwara family entered the army?"

"This is because Izumo navy...No, Izumo basically does not have a real navy establishment. Some are just like Uenos, who live by sea, or simply are pirates who are powerful and famous! There are five in number! Hundreds dare to call the army. To truly unite and form thousands or even tens of thousands of naval divisions, it is necessary to gather big names from all over the world, force them to offer people and ships, and blackmail merchants. Perhaps the Regent Plains before the turmoil can do it. But at this time, it is difficult for both parties to do this..."

Ye Zhiyu shrugged: "The Fujiwara family and the Heike family have also noticed this. The defenses of the ports are still tight, and small-scale pirate attacks can't hurt them at all..."

"Moreover, even if a lot of elites are transferred to the front, the strength of 1,500 people in Yuejianshan City at this time should still have...Even if a small group of pirates land, even if Ueno family comes out, they will be beaten back into the sea. "

Duan Yu continued.

"So, this is our chance?"

Qin Feiyu showed a grim smile: "The name of 300,000 stones is not bad. It should be a good robbery to the rich and the poor!"

"If we can wipe out Miyamoto's house and stab the back of the Heike family, presumably that Fujiwara house governor can't say anything, right?"

Ogawa Tadajiro is a typical Izumo thinking. After thinking about it, he agrees.

It is very stupid to send the soldiers you have trained so hard to sell to others.

Duan Yu's Yunzhong Island is not under the control of the Fujiwara family, so a fool does it.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to reap the benefits is what a qualified leader should do.

"It can be done, but it must be fast!"

Qin Feiyu studied it again: "If it is delayed a little longer and supported by a few nearby big names, we may not have enough troops to resist..."

"You can rest assured that Izumo's elite soldiers are on the front line of Kyoto. At this time, I really don't believe what hole cards are behind them..."

Duan Yu laughed: "Even if it does, it must fall under the spear of the Dragon Snake Elite Soldier! Flying Fish, I will see you then."

"Here!"

Qin Feiyu promised loudly, and his fighting spirit was high.

...

Moon sees the mountain city.

The big names of Izumo are divided, similar to the European medieval period.

Therefore, every daimyo likes to build permanent military fortresses, to prove their status, and to strengthen their control of nearby territories.

At this time, most of the city walls guarded traffic arteries, or were built on the hillside, step by step, and full of defense.

In the center of the Walled City, a magnificent Tianshou Pavilion was often built, where the daimyo lived and worked.

The Patriarch of the Miyamoto family, Makoto Miyamoto, has taken a large army to Kyoto to support. At this time, all affairs in the feudal clan are handled by the governor Miyamoto Zang.

Miyamoto is in his twenties and is good at tea ceremony and etiquette. He once performed in Kyoto and was highly regarded.

At the same time, he is also a samurai.

At this time, descending from the Tianshou Pavilion, looking at the depression in the city wall, I couldn't help but sigh: "My Ping Family's hegemony... the position of the world... I don't know where it will go?"

"My lord, please see the ninja Saegoro!"

I don't know how long it took, a small surname hurried in to report.

"Is it Saegoro? Let him come in!"

Miyamotozura nodded, and not long after, a ninja wearing a black tights and a face covered quickly walked in and respectfully saluted: "My lord, our harbor was attacked by an unknown pirate!"

"Pirate? Are there too many people?"

Miyamoto Zou couldn't help but straighten up.

Within this domain, there is only one port. Although there are not many merchants and few people, it is also an important source of wealth.

"There are three boats with nearly one hundred and fifty people!"

Sarugoro said in a deep voice, "Master Sasaki who is stationed in the port cannot be conquered. He has escaped. He ordered me to come and ask for help!"

"Sasaki's samurai has been transferred to ten people. At this time, there are only five samurai, thirty-something is enough. It is okay to barely maintain order in the port. It is too difficult for him to expel the pirates..."

Miyamoto Zang also knew certain circumstances, and understood that Sasaki could not be blamed. The next thing to discuss is how to send troops to fight against the pirates.

Immediately got up and ordered: "Please come over, priest Ito and Torujiro Shibata!"

The priest Ito was the lord of a shrine dedicated to Ching Hai Da Quan in the feudal clan. He once traveled to Izumo and had a wide range of knowledge. He has been a consultant and think tank of Makoto Miyamoto. He stayed here to assist the young master in governing the territory.

And Torujiro Shibata is also an excellent samurai, proficient in the art of war and strategy.

It didn’t take long before both of them arrived. Priest Ito wore a white uniform with a white face. Shibata Torujiro was a military commander in his thirties with a black and red face. He yelled as soon as he came in, "Shall we fight against the pirates? Just give me one hundred." People, I can drive those one hundred and fifty people into the sea!"

Seeing this scene, Miyamoto Zang frowned, feeling a little unhappy in his heart.

Such a martial artist is too domineering.

"Torujiro, don't be impatient, listen to what Sarugoro says..."

The priest Ito was in his 50s, he acted sternly, sat down solemnly, and then looked at Sarugoro.

"Yes, my lord!"

Sarugoro jawed his head and said the matter again.

"Do you think that the port can satisfy the pirates?" After hearing this, the priest Ito raised his eyebrows lightly.

"I'm afraid not. Because of the war, the port trade is depressed... At the same time I left, the pirates were already moving residents..."

Sarugoro said suddenly.

"Speaking of this, the other party intends to go deeper into our territory?" Priest Ito's dark eyes carried a trace of unfathomable color.

"It's very possible! So Sasaki-sama killed me for help!"

...

"Priest Ito, what did you see?"

Miyamotozura asked solemnly.

"Hundreds of pirates are advancing, the follow-up is unknown, it is very likely to be a trap!" Ito priest said: "My **** has given me inspiration."

"Could it be that... is the navy of the West?" Miyamoto Zou suddenly felt a little emboldened: "Umino family? Or Tanba Yunzhong? The big merchants are near? Or join forces?"

"I think it may be one or two, with a military strength of about 1,000!"

The priest Ito said: "Therefore...they pretend to be pirates and lure us into the main attack! There are only 1,300 people in this clan at this time. If they are sure, they will go directly to Yuejianshan Castle. They will not want to use this method. , So there won’t be too many people."

"It's really Ito-sama..." Torujiro said emotionally, "I'll tell you this, the enemy's conspiracy seems to be in front of our eyes."

"In that case, how about if we stick to Tsukimiyama Castle?" Miyamoto Zang asked.

"I'm afraid this won't work. As a domain lord, you must protect your people... If the pirates find us holding on to the city, they will certainly looting! This is a huge damage to the majesty and reputation of the Miyamoto family!"

Priest Ito advised.

"Yes...Although the lord has the power to live and kill the leader, he must also protect his leader from outside forces, otherwise he will be abandoned!"

Miyamoto Zang murmured, with a deep understanding of this point: "Then what should be done?"

"There are still a few powerful nationals and tycoons in this domain, and they can be mobilized to send troops..."

The priest Ito said: "Tsukiyama Castle keeps a thousand soldiers~www.wuxiaspot.com~ enough to defend the castle. After ensuring that the formation is not lost, Torujiro can bring three hundred people together and form a crusade army... Above is the territory of the Hangi family. I think they will definitely respond positively. At that time, thousands of people will be crowded together, and they will press on with the momentum of the mountain. If they are just ordinary pirates, they will definitely flee away. It's war... it's on land after all!"

The navy is good at naval battles, and the flat battlefield is not as good as the samurai.

If one thousand army forces against one thousand navy divisions, and the situation is advantageous, then Shibata Torujiro can cut his belly directly.

"Using the Hagi family to mobilize the Chinese and powerful?"

Miyamoto Zang murmured, and suddenly there was some understanding: "The strength of the family is empty, so they must test their loyalty and weaken their strength?"

In this strategy, there is not only the use of force to fight, but also the idea of ​​weakening the other powers in the territory. It really kills two birds with one stone and contains deep political wisdom.

In comparison, he is indeed too immature.

"I understand!"

Miyamoto took a deep breath: "Torojiro Shibata!"

"what!"

The samurai knelt down immediately, with excitement in his eyes.

"I will give you three hundred people, and order you to quickly contact Hangi, Daejeon, and Numahe, and order them to send troops to fight against the pirates who occupy the port!"

"Yes!"

Shibata Torujiro agreed loudly, his face filled with excitement and enthusiasm.

It is this eagerness to try, but it makes Priest Ito feel a little bit cold: "Torujiro's loyalty can still be trusted, but he has not been brought to the front by the Patriarch. This unwillingness will lead to risky advancement?" But just to deal with some pirates, it's a local battle, isn't it? ’
