Ezo Island is a mountain ridge in the middle of the island, surrounded by plains and hills, and the Black Armor Army swept north from the Toshima Peninsula, and the first large tribe of the Ainu was in Sapporo, not too far from Fukuyama Castle.

Sapporo is an Ainu language meaning "great river", and it is blessed with the Ishikari Plain, one of only three plains on Ezo Island.

As the name suggests, the Great River is a big river! The plains are nothing, the Ainu do not know how to plant, and even have just learned to graze, but the river is not simple, every year a large number of migratory fish flow from the sea back to the upper reaches of the river to spawn, and this river alone is enough to feed the Ainu, a southern tribe.

The leader of this tribe was called Xiangku Xiangcheng, who was both a tribal leader and a large slave owner, and yes, the Ainu also developed into a slave society.

He had fifteen wives, twenty children, and a large number of hides, otter skins, and dried fish, which represented wealth.

The advent of slavery marked that the Ainu were no longer a clan society with equal distribution per capita, where the people owned private property, the rich had many sons and wives, the poor had nothing, and even they were the property of others.

All this was on the march, and Jiro Tanaka told Yang Rentian, so Yang Rentian was more sure about subduing the Ainu.

Yang Rentian sent a large number of rebukes and went out five miles to cover the battlefield, so the army approached within ten miles without missing a trace of information.

"Report ......! Lord Zongqi, some of the Ainu who were hunting in the mountains ahead have escaped, and the news of our army's attack may have leaked. ”

Finally, the front came to report that because there were too many Ainu hunting in the mountains, some people had fled back to the tribe to report the news.

"My lord, there is a tribe of the Ainu not far ahead." Jiro Tanaka, who was beside Yang Rentian, reminded him at the right time.

Yang Rentian listened to the words of the two and immediately gave instructions: "Someone come, pass on my order, the troops will speed up, and after entering the Ainu settlement, they will carry out a large-scale division and encirclement, so that no one can escape." ”

"Yes," Yang Rentian's herald ordered, and the slave soldiers immediately responded loudly.

Yang Rentian gave an order, and after a short time, the sound of hooves rumbled, like thunder rolling in the sky, raising dust in the sky.

The Black Armor Army is a pure cavalry unit, and the Mongolian horse is the most resistant to long-distance running horses.

When the cavalry attacked, the Ainu tribesmen could not escape when they walked, and those who hunted along the way and collected seafood on the seashore were immediately caught up by the black armor army and captured one by one.

This is a textbook crush, so that the resisting Ainu hunters are very desperate, the other party is simply invulnerable, their own bows and arrows, wooden guns, can not cause a little damage to them, once close, but even more desperate, the speed of the black armor soldiers' moves, fast as lightning, and infinitely powerful, often a move to defeat the enemy, Ainu warriors, either stunned, or subdued by force.

Since the two sides did not understand words, and the shouts of surrender were also exempted, the soldiers of the Black Armor Army were ruthless and captured the other party without saying a word.

This is in the outer area of the Ainu tribe, due to the pressure of the Black Armor Army, no matter how brave the warriors are, they will not resist bravely with just a few people, they can flee, and if they can't, they will fight back desperately.

Therefore, there are always some people who escaped into the mountains and forests, and some people have returned to the tribe to report to the police, when the large army of the Black Armor Army rushed to the road two or three miles away from Sapporo, the leader of the Ainu people, Xiangku, has led the tribal warriors to meet the battle.

They have no choice, although the enemy is very strong, but behind them is their homeland, where there are their relatives, even if they are desperate to fight, they have to fight, just like during the War of Resistance Against Japan, our military and civilians in the situation of disparity in power, no matter how heavy the casualties, but also fought a full eight years of resistance.

The Ainu people are still in the primitive era, so naturally they don't have any clever tactics, so they don't say a word, they just scream and rush over.

The total strength of the Ainu is only more than 1,000 and less than 2,000, and the Black Armor Army includes three National Guard Units, with a full seven or eight thousand people, and the two sides have a huge disparity in strength, plus the Black Armor Army is cavalry, which is much faster, so the Black Armor Army can easily surround the Ainu.

After the encirclement was completed, Yang Rentian, who was in command on the periphery, immediately issued an order: "Someone, pass on my order, and give me a warning to shoot three rounds of arrows at the perimeter of the Ainu people, so that they can know the history of our army." ”

"Yes" Yang Rentian's slave soldier in charge of the order immediately agreed, and then waved the flag to give the order.

Soon, several of the commanders in front received the order and immediately ordered the soldiers to shoot arrows and shoot the foot.

That's right, this was originally before the battle between the two armies in ancient times, each side sent an archer to shoot an arrow, and the distance in between was the distance between the two armies.

But the Black Armor Army is obviously different, they use superb archery skills, and shoot three arrows in a row on the periphery of the Ainu people in the charge, only a few meters away from the periphery of the Ainu, and in an instant the ground is like a crop of wheat, and the swinging arrow feathers are ears of wheat.

The Ainu have stopped, archery warning is a reason, and being surrounded by groups is also a reason, you only rush in one direction, and don't defend in the other three directions?

"Tanaka, come forward and shout for surrender, and ask them to surrender unconditionally, otherwise our army will be killed, and all the captured Ainu will be reduced to slavery." Yang Rentian turned his head and ordered Jiro Tanaka, who was beside him.

"Obey" Tanaka bowed deeply and agreed, and immediately stepped forward and shouted.

"Patriarch, I'm Jiro Tanaka, a merchant who often comes to your tribe to exchange furs for catches, and our general, I order you to surrender immediately and unconditionally, otherwise you will be killed, and your people will be reduced to slaves.

Don't be delusional and stubborn, we are a powerful Black Armor Army......"

"Shut up, Tanaka, you shameless villain, dare to bring outsiders to attack our army, I will roast you alive and eat you to eliminate the hatred in my heart." Xiangku Xiangcheng didn't wait for Jiro Tanaka to finish speaking, so he couldn't help but grit his teeth and scold.

"Hahahaha! Patriarch, you misunderstood me, when did I bring outsiders? Now that Fukuyama Castle is the territory of the Far Eastern Kingdom, I Tanaka am a citizen of the Far Eastern Kingdom, and it is my honor to serve the country.

Patriarch, if you don't know what to do, you will definitely resist the power of heaven, you will definitely be destroyed by the clan, and your fifteen wives and twenty children will all be executed......"

"Shut up, I Ainu have no one to surrender, warriors, rush me, catch this shameless villain in Tanaka, I will be rewarded."

Tanaka's persuasion to surrender was ineffective, but it provoked the anger of Aiku, and he raised his katana in his hand and shouted to attack.

Unexpectedly, the other party didn't know what to do, and Yang Rentian also coldly waved his hand and ordered to attack.

Although Tanaka and Aiku Xiangcheng spoke an incomprehensible Ainu language, the other party attacked, and even a fool knew that persuasion was futile.

Also, the Ainu are primitive people, where do they know how to surrender and forbear, and Tanaka Jiro's words are also very ugly, which further angers Xiangku, the two sides are Mars and the earth, and they must fight it out......
