The sky is clear and calm, and the sky is as blue as a vast expanse.
Such good weather made Kenjiro Mori, the nickname who ruled four nearby cities, very happy. He stood comfortably in his own courtyard, squinting his eyes and enjoying the wonderful sunbath.
However, this comfortable life did not last long. A hurried voice interrupted Mori Kenjiro's happiness: "Lord Mori, all those who fled to the deserted mountains have returned and are now gathering in Tano Town!"
Maori Xiaoming's confidant hurried over to report, which made Maori Kenjiro a little unhappy: "You are back, so just come back. It's better to be exiled like before. Why are you so impatient?"
"Mori-sama, this time is different from before. The number of people returning... there are thousands of them, and most of them are young people!"
“?!”
Mori Kenjiro was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted. He looked at his retainers and confidants excitedly and said in disbelief, "What did you say, thousands of people?!"
The retainer with thick eyebrows and big eyes bowed his head and said, "Lord Maori, this is absolutely true. I am willing to guarantee it with my life!"
"If that's the case, that would be great!"
Mori Kenjiro suddenly became excited, his expression filled with indescribable excitement: "Thousands of people! If my army had a thousand more vanguards, I would definitely be able to capture Qingzhu City, wipe out the Mudu family, and become a powerful daimyo!"
The rules for daimyo and nominate are actually very simple. A city lord with a salary of more than 50,000 koku is a daimyo, and a lord with less than 50,000 koku is a nominate. However, due to the collapse of rituals and music, all princes with a salary of more than 10,000 koku are now generally called daimyo.
Mori Kenjiro was just a nickname, but he had 500 soldiers under his command. He was already a well-known and influential figure in the area, the closest person to being a daimyo.
Don’t think that 500 soldiers are a small number. You should know that these 500 people are full-time warriors. They are not the kind of peasant soldiers who are farmers in normal times and go to the battlefield to fight.
Once the war breaks out, Mori Kenjiro can summon more than 3,000 soldiers at one time to fight. If he can get 1,000 more soldiers this time, his hegemony can be achieved, and the Mori family will become the new daimyo!
After reading it, Maori Kenjiro was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He quickly ordered the maid to change clothes and told his retainers, "Quickly, mobilize the soldiers and go to Tano Town with me. We can't let those bastards from the Mudu family get ahead of us!"
"Yes, my lord!"
The retainer did not hesitate at all and immediately went to find the leader of the soldiers, Mori Kenjiro's younger brother, Mori Junichiro.
In their view, this wave of meat, eggs, onions and chicken was a good opportunity given by God to the Mori family to compete for hegemony.
......
In Tano Town, Amanomi Harunaka had already counted the number of people. He felt extremely pleased with the working people here.
Because he is the one who is chosen by heaven by the will of the world, Tian Yuqingzhong is very concerned about the lives of the people. After personally performing the Yin-Yang magic and distributing the farmland and houses, he feels happy when he sees the happy smiles of the residents.
"Lord Tianyu!"
"Lord Tianyu, something bad has happened!"
A resident of Tano Town came running breathlessly from a distance. He came to Amanomi Harunaka and reported in a panic, "Sir, I just saw the Mori family's soldiers gathering in the city. It seems that they heard about our situation and want to capture us!"
"Ah, what should I do?"
"If the Maori family's soldiers knew we were back, they would definitely beat us to death."
"No way, no way, no way, could it be that someone really went to the Maori family to tip off the situation?"
"I am willing to take up arms and stand with Lord Amanami Harunaka against the Mori family. Anyone who wishes to destroy our family must die!"
"I do, too!"
"What the heck is the Mori family? Amanomi Harunaka-sama will protect us!"
"Resist the Mori family! Resist the Mori-chan!"
After the news spread, the crowd was excited and the residents here had a strong sense of resistance, but Tian Yuqingzhong knew that as long as he left, the residents here would immediately return to their original state, either fleeing or surrendering.
There is no way. The people in this world are very similar to those in ancient Japan. They have no sense of resistance and only obey and escape. As for the local princes, they despise their weak bloodline and dare not resist at all.
If Tian Yuqingzhong had not been here, they might not even dare to say the three words "Mori family". After all, they were also a group of people without surnames.
The reason they are rebelling now is not because Atomiya Harunaka gave them the confidence to rebel, but because they already regard themselves as the people under Atomiya Harunaka's rule. Atomiya Harunaka, the lord, is going to attack the lord of the Mori family. Isn't it natural for them, the people under his rule, to wave flags and cheer?
Tian Yuqingzhong knew very well the mentality of these people, but he would not take any action.
The wish is only to unify the three major islands and establish an era without war, not something like "Are there any kings, princes, generals or ministers who are born with different races?", so Tian Yuqing will not have any big reaction.
"Lord Tianyu, please give us your orders. We are willing to die for you!"
Many residents have picked up the simple wooden farm tools distributed to them by Ama no Harunaka, ready to fight the Mori family's soldiers at the risk of their lives.
For them, the emergence of such a wise lord in this chaotic era was already an incredible thing, and they certainly wanted to dedicate their lives to such a lord.
"Everyone, I don't need you to sacrifice your lives for me. I persuaded you to come down the mountain, and I will be responsible for your safety."
