The advancing Toyotomi army stopped.
The warriors made a circle and circled a square place with cloth.
Toyotomi Daikichi was sitting on a small bench, with Katakura Kageju standing next to him, and below him were Terashima Masakatsu, Aota Mitsuie, and Takeda Katsuhide.
Among them, Terashima Masakatsu is the brother of Terashima Masanori, that is, a member of the Terashima family. Command an army of a thousand men.
Qingtian Mitsuie and Takeda Katsuhide were two of the famous names of the Three Kingdoms who were defeated by the Han army.
Everyone looked ugly.
"What I said now. I also said it to Jing Shi just now. Three adults. The situation is not good now. There is something wrong with my plan."
"But the general of the Han army. One of the generals who crossed the sea with Wu Nian, Lu Liuliang, is about to be eaten by me. Although Wu Nian surrounded Wei to save Zhao, he failed to save Zhao. There must be turmoil within the Han army, and we have an opportunity to take advantage of it."
"And for you who have lost your territory, your family, or your master, I am very sorry. And hereby promise that I will lead troops to regain your territory."
Having said this, Toyotomi Daikichi bowed to the three people, then raised his head and said to Terashima Masakatsu: "Master Masakatsu, the direct line of the Terashima family has been destroyed, as a branch family. I hereby agree. You will inherit Terashima. The name of the family. After the victory, the old territory of the Terashima family will be restored."
"I can't thank you enough." Terashima Masakatsu suppressed the joy in his heart and bent down to thank him. Immediately, he showed a sad look and said: "I will definitely lead the troops to fight hard, defeat the Han army, and avenge my brother."
Neither Aoda Mitsuie nor Takeda Katsuhide spoke, their expressions were still ugly. Although the promise has been obtained, who knows in what direction the battlefield will develop?
and.
They lost their territories, castles, retainers, and families. Even if the territory and castle can be regained, can the lost retainers and family members be resurrected?
If the family is weak, it is already nailed to the iron plate.
Toyotomi Daikichi looked at the expressions of the two and knew what they were thinking, but he had no choice but to comfort them as much as possible.
As the pillar of the world's warriors, Fusang's general conquers the barbarians.
Toyotomi Daikichi's prestige was finally challenged by repeated defeats.
;.....
Bizen country.
Following precedent, Wu Nian was renamed Bizen Prefecture. Two castles were left to send troops to defend, and the remaining castles were completely demolished.
Although the plan went well.
However, the Han army defeated the four kingdoms in succession. During the battles and marches, the Han army accumulated a large number of tired and wounded people. Wu Nian did not lead his troops into Harimo Kingdom rashly, but Chen Bing camped in the Bizen border area and took a short rest.
A Han Chinese-style military camp stands on flat ground. The flags were flying, the tents were stretched out, and the momentum was very strong.
Inside the heavily guarded Chinese army tent.
Wu Nian sat on the Taishi chair and looked down at the map.
Fuso sixty-six countries. Counties (countries) controlled by the Han Dynasty were all painted in vermilion. The area of vermilion cuts Honshu Island in half.
The plan went smoothly and the Han army's power continued to rise.
But there are many problems.
In the four counties that the Han army had just occupied, the activities of the Imperial City Division and Fuma Ninja had just begun. In terms of intelligence, it can only be described as so-so.
The four prefectures are very mountainous, and there are still some remnants of daimyo activities in the mountains. Overall, it is not very peaceful.
As for places outside the occupied areas, the Han army was still blind.
It is still unknown how many Toyotomi troops there are in Harima.
The key is.
Can Lu Liuliang defend Yise City?
"You must guard it for me." Wu Nian's eyes fell on Yise City and he said to himself.
Immediately, Wu Nian set his sights on the west again. To the west of Honshu Island, there are also eight countries.
They are Boqi Kingdom, Izumo Kingdom, Bizhong Kingdom, Bingo Kingdom, Iwami Kingdom, Aki Kingdom, and Nagato and Shufang Kingdoms.
Wu Nian's eyes further fell on Nagato and Zhou Fang.
In another time and space, in Fuso.
In modern modernization, that is, the Meiji Restoration stage. The leaders of the Nagato and Shufang kingdoms were the Shimazu family, the famous Choshu clan.
The political power formed by the Choshu Domain has long controlled the War Department of the Fuso Kingdom.
That is to say, most of the Fuso Army generals from Tsinghua University came from these two countries.
Wu Nian took a deep breath and shook his head. Let these things go. Past lives are things that happened in previous lives and this life.
Fusang must be destroyed by me.
Wu Nian's mind returned to the present moment and he frowned slightly. This time the Han army sent troops, with only twenty-five thousand households. At present, Wang Gui's ten thousand households are still in his hands.
Zhang Cai and Jingji Daosan's fifteen thousand households, eight of them stayed in the four-county territory they obtained. At present, Zhang Cai's army only has seven thousand households left.
But to attack the eight countries, the task is very difficult.
"Should I dispatch some more troops from the Kyoto Plain to support Zhang Cai? But if I dispatch troops, Toyotomi Daikichi takes advantage of the situation and invades the Kyoto Plain. That would be bad."
Wu Nian hesitated, then shook his head helplessly and said, "It would be great if I could mobilize troops from within the country. Even if I only mobilize ten thousand households."
"We can solve the remaining eight countries in the west."
The sound of footsteps outside the tent startled Wu Nian. He looked up and saw Wang Gui walking in from the outside with a serious expression.
Wu Nian also immediately became serious, "What happened?"
"The soldiers captured a man who claimed to be the lord of the Ouchi Castle of Shikoku Island, Sanuki Kingdom, and a territory of 30,000 koku. Maeda Tadamichi."
Wang Gui bent down and said.
Wu Nian narrowed his eyes.
Fuso Four Islands.
Honshu, Kyushu, Shikoku, Hokkaido.
The reason why Shikoku Island is called Shikoku is that there are four countries on the island. They are Sanuki Country, Tosa Country, Awa Country, and Iyo Country.
Sanuki Country is located in the north, across the sea from Bizen Prefecture.
"Sit down. Tell me the detailed information about this person." Wu Nian said.
Wang Gui came to the right and sat down on the Grand Master's chair, and said, "The information from the Fuma Ninja and the Kyogoku family is basically the same."
"Maeda Tadamichi was very capable. He originally submitted to the Hojo family. He had his own castle and received 50,000 koku. Later, the Hojo family was defeated. Maeda Tadamichi surrendered to Toyotomi Daikichi, and his territory was changed to the current Ouchi Castle."
Wu Nian narrowed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and said, "An old minister of the Hojo family."
Now, it gets interesting.
The Fuma Ninja's actions are very strange.
He suspected that the direct line of the Hojo family was still continuing and lingering somewhere.
Now Fuuma Ninja, help him with his work.
Maeda Tadamichi, an old minister of the Hojo family, came to the door of his own accord.
The ghosts of the Hojo family gathered around him.
"What did the Feng Mo Ninja say?" Wu Nian asked.
"No expression." Wang Gui replied.
Wu Nian nodded, then thought again. Then he raised his head and said to Wang Gui: "Bring Maeda Tadamichi in."
Wang Gui nodded, stood up, turned around and left the tent. Soon after, he led Maeda Tadamichi in from the outside.
Wu Nian sat on the Taishi chair and looked at this person carefully.
