The village was silent in the night, and when the Ezo army came out, most of the Japanese civilians were still asleep.

But with the fierce shouting and killing, these Japanese people woke up one after another, but what they were waiting for was the shining weapons of the Ezo people.

There is no doubt that these civilians will not be able to withstand the thousands of vengeful Ezo armies, unless they are the ones who confess their Ezo identity.

After sweeping through this village, the Ezo army moved on to the next village, and their ultimate goal was to break through the domain of Mutsu Province, which was the residence of the Mutsu Kuniti Morihei clan, but it was a little far away from it.

The so-called feudal city is just a large town, surrounded by low city walls, perhaps even inferior to the general county city walls in the Tang Dynasty.

Because the Ezo people were killed from the north, but the Japanese people thought that the Ezo people had long lost the strength to resist, so the defense force was very weak, and even said that they were in a state of defense.

When the Ezo people, who were equipped with the weapons of the Tang Army and underwent a short period of training by the Tang Army, landed on the coast of Mutsu Province, they were invincible, and conquered many Japanese towns in succession.

Everywhere they passed, the blood of the Japanese was everywhere, and the morale of the Ezo people was still high because they had never fought a decent battle.

So Abe, who got the news, did not take it to heart, but sent an army to encircle and suppress the Ezo people.

The Abe clan did not send many troops, only 600 people, because they felt that the Ezo people were not worthy of being the opponents of the Japanese people, and the Ezo people living on Ezo Island were nothing more than a group of barbarians who could not eat enough.

This is also the reason why the Abe clan has never recognized that their own family also has Ezo blood, because they fundamentally despise the Ezo people.

They believed that the Ezo people did not deserve fertile land, and that they were only suitable for fishing and hunting on the icy island of Ezo.

And in the previous war, Abe's army can be said to be invincible, so this time I didn't take those thousands of Ezo people into account. On the contrary, he sneered in his heart, thinking that these shameful Ezo people were sending them to death.

It was precisely because of Abe's contempt that the Ezo army had its first decent war after landing.

5,000 Ezo troops against 600 Abe Japanese troops.

No matter how you say it, these 600 Japanese troops are also Abe's army, and they also have good weapons, after all, the Japanese have studied the Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years, and it is impossible that they have not grown up for hundreds of years. Even the country of Mutsu, which is located in the north, has been affected a lot.

However, after all, these 600 Japanese troops were regular troops, well-trained, but they were not in sufficient numbers, so after the real battle, Kiyohara Tetsu understood the gap between the two sides, and the Ezo army also suffered some casualties for the first time.

Before the battle, the 600 Japanese army thought that the Ezo people were just barbarians with wooden sticks or crude bows and arrows, but when they saw the sophisticated weapons, the Japanese army was also shocked.

Although they were not as well-trained as the Japanese army, after all, there were many people, and with the idea of revenge, the balance of battle gradually tipped in favor of the Ezo people, and soon a massacre began.

When the news of the annihilation of the 600 elite Japanese army reached Abe's territory, it was a shock. However, the Ezo attack continued, and Abe's several dispatches were defeated, losing nearly 1,000 soldiers.

The whole country of Mutsu was shocked by the fact that many towns were terrified, fearing that their towns would become the next targets.

It is said that wherever the Ezo people passed, rivers of blood flowed.

However, after capturing dozens of towns/villages in the northern part of the country, Tetsu Kiyohara followed the advice of Nishikiei and postponed the attack to consolidate the territory he had occupied, and meet the counterattack of the Abe clan and even the entire Mutsu country.

Although the vitality of the Abe clan has been greatly damaged, there are not only the Abe clan in the Mutsu Kingdom, but also the Kiyohara clan, the Fujiwara clan, and even the Taira clan and the Genji clan in the south, but the latter two are mainly in the eastern region, that is, Shimosokuni, Kamisokuni, Hitachikuni and other places, but at this time the town guard of Mutsunoku is the Taira clan.

Although the Abe clan has also been regarded as an outlier by these families in the eastern country, if it is true that the Ezo people on Ezo Island go south, they will definitely not sit idly by.

In this case, the people of Jinyiwei strongly persuaded Kiyohara Tetsu not to come nonsense, unify these Ezo slaves and villages in the north, and then migrate the Ezo people from Ezo Island to train the army for the next big war.

"General Xie, the three thousand slaves you want are ready."

As a Tang warship arrived at the port, Kiyohara Tetsu came to greet him with a group of his men in person, with a very respectful attitude.

After seeing the powerful Qingyuan Zhe of Datang, he was shocked by the strength of Datang from the bottom of his bones, and he couldn't raise any heart to resist.

Of course, this is only temporary, and only if they remain strong all the time, these small states will submit.

Looking at those slave owners who had changed from showy slave owners to slaves, Xie Xu nodded, still quite satisfied, because these slaves were basically young men and women, suitable for mining.

"These slaves are good, and in a little while, we'll have a ship to transport them away."

"Dare to ask General Xie, can we talk about the founding of the country now?" Tetsu Kiyohara was a little anxious.

Xie Xu glanced at the anxious Qingyuan Zhe and shook his head, "Let's wait until you defeat the counterattack of the Japanese people."

The place is good, the land is gentle and fertile, suitable for building a city and farming. If you build a checkpoint on those cols in the distance, it is also suitable for defense, but it can be used as the capital of Ezo. This is only a suggestion, and it is up to you to decide whether to adopt it or not. ”

Qing Yuan Zhe hurriedly said, "General Xie's words are reasonable, but the Ezo people are not good at building cities, dare to ask if Datang can provide assistance?" ”

"We can show you how to build cities and passes." Xie Xu thought for a moment.

"Thank you very much!" Tetsu Kiyohara was a little excited.

"But you still have something to do, the Japanese will definitely not give up, and when building the city, you also need to train the army well. If you do encounter a regular army of the Japanese people, your rabble may not be able to win. Xie Xu didn't want years of hard work to be wasted by Qing Yuanzhe's recklessness.

"For General Xie's suggestion, I must keep it in mind."

In the following period, a large number of Ezo people crossed south from Ezo Island and entered various parts of the northern part of Mutsu.

During this time, Kiyohara Tetsu accompanied Xie Xu to select suitable places for building castles in the northern area of Mutsu that he occupied, mainly based on the Japanese cities.

While the various forces of the Japanese Mutsu Kingdom were studying how to fight back against the Ezo people, tens of thousands of Ezo people crossed the sea and went south to survive in the ancestral land that was snatched back from the Japanese people.

Kiyohara Tetsu is not a master who can be idle.,While training the army,,It's also going south to attack、Mutsu other towns.,Stir the entire Mutsu people panic.。。

This also stimulated the Ezo people and Ezo slaves in Mutsu and Dewa to have plans to rebel against the Japanese people.

However, at this time, Heiankyo did not know about the Ezo people in the northeast, and even if he did, he would not have time to manage it, because the Silla pirates actually established a state in Iwami Province and other places.
