"Okay, in that case, then we will immediately gather our forces and prepare for a battle with the enemy." After saying that, Saito Kenhiro immediately got up, and regardless of the other three family heads present, he went straight to the inner room and put on his armor. The other three immediately got up and walked out.

Since the three armies were all in the city, it only took a moment to assemble their commanders, and it was completed.

It's been four days since the army came out of the army, and in these four days, the Ashigaru of the Satomi army only does four things, that is, eating, sleeping, convenience, and running, and the running time is the longest, but what can be done about it, this time the lord gave a strict order, if you can't catch up with the spring mountain city within seven days, then who can't kill whom, seeing that more than half of the time has passed, but he has only run half of the distance, if he can't catch up, then it's really dead, So they can only shorten the time to eat and sleep, even the convenience is when eating, or simply pee in the pants, if anyone has an uncomfortable stomach, it will be miserable, can only run quickly, run to the front of the team, and then use dozens of breaths to solve it, anyway, must be at the end of the team before the arrival, lift the pants, otherwise the military eyes who follow the back of the team will not intercede with them.

Satomi's ashigaru is uncomfortable, and so are those samurai who can ride horses, although they don't have to run, but they are bumpy on their horses all day, and their legs have long been grinded into flesh and blood, but there is no way, they don't dare to stop either, otherwise the lord will not intercede with him.

As for Satomi Yoshihiro, who went out in person this time, he was also having a hard time, although the horse under his crotch was a good horse, and the sides of the saddle were covered with soft cushions, and his legs were still intact, but he was used to being pampered, how could he adapt to such a life. So for the past three days, he will vomit a lot during the rest every day, but he must also insist, otherwise the Hojo clan will not be able to spare him, especially after he heard that the Hojo clan plans to start cleaning up the wealthy clans and affiliated forces in the territory, he will not dare to have any perfunctory, otherwise the name of the Satomi family will definitely appear on the list of those who will be cleaned up.

It was with this military momentum that the Satomi army faced the coalition forces of the Ueno clan that were about to meet them.

At this moment, the four allied forces of Ueno were already in the dense forest at the foot of an unnamed mountain seven miles north of Rock Cabinet City. As a land snake, it is not difficult to find a suitable place for an ambush, not to mention a piece, even if it is a very simple matter to find three or four places. And when they left the city, the four of them all attached great importance to this place, where two mountains and a valley were sandwiched, and the foot of the mountain was a dense forest, and the valley was neither narrow nor open, so that they could launch a surprise attack on the enemy, and it would not be impossible to exert it. And the front and rear are spacious, which is also convenient for a quick retreat after the attack. And since the Satomi army has taken the road of Rock Cabinet City, then this is the place where it must pass, and if you don't choose here, you are sorry for the title of the head snake.

As soon as the four allied forces were ambushed, the five thousand tired troops of the Satomi family had already come into sight, but this time it was an ambush for the enemy, and they had no intention of fighting the enemy head-on. So he didn't do anything, and he was still lurking.

Until the other party has already walked halfway through his eyes. Seeing that the time had come, Saito Kenhiro shouted without any hesitation, and quickly rushed towards the Satomi army not far ahead, and the hundreds of Saito family troops behind him also followed him to charge the enemy, while the other three armies did not hesitate, seeing that the Saito family had moved. Immediately, they led their troops to rush out, and in the originally quiet valley, they suddenly shouted and killed.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! As soon as the coalition forces burst out of the dense forest, the Satomi family, both the Ashigaru and the samurai, immediately spotted them, shouting as they spoke. They stopped, but at the moment their legs were sore, and they couldn't breathe, so it was impossible to organize defenses.

When the enemy has already rushed in front of them, they can only make an instinctive resistance, but because their physical strength has long been exhausted on the road, they are no match for the coalition forces. So don't look at the coalition army, there are only more than 1,000 troops, but under the charge, the Satomi army is still rushed to pieces, and now there is no possibility of organizing a defense.

At the beginning, the coalition Ashigaru was still a little timid in the face of the enemy's 5,000 troops, but after handing them over, they suddenly found that although the other side was numerous, it was ...... But this combat power is really indescribable, they have seen weak combat power, but they have never seen such a weak one, and even after the fight, before they can make a move, the other party has fallen to the ground, this is a war, this is much easier than cutting wood stakes, the other party is completely waiting to let himself kill, so when the four families see this, how can there be any apprehension, such an opportunity to make meritorious service is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, every time you kill one more, it represents five hundred dollars, and now in their eyes, the enemy's neck is not a human head at all, It's 500 yuan, and it's not difficult to earn it.

And the four family heads and the samurai under their command faced the enemy samurai at the first time, and for them, it was not as good as killing a samurai to show their bravery, but just like the ashigaru under their command, the other party could also be called a samurai? After the swords and guns intersected, the swords and guns in the opponent's hands were either knocked away, or even fell off the horse together, it seems that these samurai have no martial arts at all, and they are not even as good as ordinary people, and they also found that as long as they fight, even if the other party is not injured, they also grinning and yelling, from the look on their faces, it can be seen that they are very painful, and the samurai of the coalition army are still a little confused, but when they see that the other samurai every time they fight for a round, they tightly cover their inner thighs, and then they understand something, As samurai, they know what the consequences of riding a horse for a long time can occur, and many people have experienced it, so the other party's actions and the other party's application immediately made them understand one thing, that is, they were lucky this time. All the coalition warriors did not have any caution, and all adopted the attack method of opening and closing, anyway, the other party had no power to fight back at all, and they did not have to worry about being injured, so what else was there to worry about.

Originally, the four family heads just wanted to shoot and run, but after seeing that the enemy was so vulnerable, they immediately changed their strategy to eliminate this army, and now don't look at their own side on the battlefield There are few people, but they have completely suppressed the other party, and if they are not eliminated at this moment, let alone when.

After making this decision, he only heard Saito Kenhiro stab the enemy samurai in front of him to death with one shot, and shouted loudly to the other three family heads: "You have reached the end of this enemy army, if we can destroy it, it will be a great achievement, and then not only can the family name be preserved, but also the trust of the main hall and more rewards, the future of our four families depends on this battle, please do not hesitate." ”

"I don't need to say anything about it, this is a godsend, and of course we won't miss it. Listen to the orders of the good family and kill with me! Yura Narishigeru said as he took out a shot of Ashigaru standing in front of him, and then rushed towards an enemy samurai in front of him.

Under these two situations, the Satomi army was completely defeated, and their combat power was not low, which can be seen from the fact that they can compete with the Hojo family for many years with less than 100,000 stones, although there is a reason why the Hojo army has been fighting on three sides and has not freed up their hands to clean them up, but if they are really as weak as they are now, with the strength of the Hojo family, they can be wiped out countless times by sending a little military strength at will, so it is indeed just an accident this time, but this accident is fatal.

Although Satomi Yoshihiro has also been on the battlefield many times, but at that time, he was always by his father's side, and his father arranged the troops, he just did it, and the enemy of Satomi at that time was the powerful Hojo, so the tricks they used were not only frontal battles, but also similar to the tricks of these wealthy clans in Ueno to deal with themselves now, but now that he suddenly turned over, he immediately panicked, and he had never encountered such a situation before.

Seeing that the enemy's attack is getting more and more fierce, if he doesn't have any action or order, then I'm afraid it won't take much time, and the 5,000 troops under his command will collapse, so he knows that he has to do something, thinking of this, he only heard him shout loudly: "Quick, move closer to me, the enemy army is not much, as long as we can form a defensive circle, then the final victory will definitely belong to us." ”

It's good that he didn't shout, but after this shout, the coalition warriors who hadn't noticed him suddenly found that the warrior who was shouting not far from him was wearing a bright silver body, and the big and bright half-moon helmet on his helmet was shining golden in the sun. It's not bad to fight with a junior samurai, but if you can kill the enemy general, it's definitely a great achievement. With this in mind, most of the coalition samurai rushed towards the samurai who was suspected of being the enemy's general after eliminating the enemy in front of them.

Satomi Yoshihiro originally wanted to concentrate his troops on him, first, to protect himself, and secondly, to facilitate defense, but what he didn't expect was that his own people didn't come, but the enemy came first. At this moment, although there were a hundred guards around him, their state was the same as everyone else, and their combat power had dropped to the lowest, how could they stop the wolf-like coalition warriors, and they suddenly fell into a bitter battle. It is said that it is a hard battle to lift them, not to mention the strength of their counterforces now, even if the parrying is a bit laborious, so don't look at the martial arts of those samurai in the coalition army, but it is more than enough to deal with them.
