The Tsuchichi Sho has risen repeatedly in the past 100 years, the most recent of which was the Yamana Honganji Burning Incident, in which the Tsuchichi army from Yamashiro and Omi and the Hokke Ichikyoshi army in Kyoto, Rokkaku Joyori, and Hosokawa Harumoto combined to burn the Yamashina Honganji Temple, which was founded by Honganji Renru himself, to the ground.

Looking at the angry peasant soldiers, Kira Yoshitoki turned to his retainers with great satisfaction and said, "See? This is the human heart! The human heart is the real power! Only those who grasp the hearts and minds of the people can take the lead in the war! ”

"I'll get it!" Samurai, whether Mikawa or Omi, felt a deep sense of fear and powerlessness at this moment, and Yamamoto Tokiyuki repeated the words: "People's hearts are backed? The power to grasp the human heart...... Is it? ”

Stop the endless crazy shouting of the peasant soldiers, and wait for them to gradually calm down, before they continue: "If you lose this battle, the samurai standing on the stage will fall to the ground, this is the fate of our samurai, and if you can't protect the land behind you, you can only use death to apologize!" But what about you? What do you get? Even if some of you are willing to live in humiliation, survive the indiscriminate arrest of the Miyoshi family, and bear the shame of being humiliated by your wife and daughter, then what will you face? The annual payment of the three good families, the land money, the donkey money, the arrow money, etc., are harshly levied and miscellaneous taxes, and! Don't try to avoid this tax this year. ”

"What! How can this be done? He's trying to kill us! When the Omi peasants looked at Kira Yoshishi in horror, they wanted to get an answer from the mouth of the samurai lord, but unfortunately Kira Yoshitomi would not comfort them, as exemplified by the recently dead Imamura Yoshimitsu, who was levied once in April by the shogunate and again in June, and was fiercely resisted by the underground and caused a catastrophe.

"Because you are on the opposite side of the Miyoshi family, Miyoshi Changqing will eradicate all those who are hostile to him! It doesn't matter if you are kneeling and begging for mercy or fighting bravely, as long as you are hostile, you must die! Nagamasa Kizawa of Hanoi, Miyoshi Sozo of the same clan, Harumoto Hosokawa and the shogunate today, and you tomorrow! A few days ago, the Imamura Keshimitsu of the Miyoshi family killed the retainers of the Hirohashi Gondai Nayan family in order to collect land money in Kyoto, and as long as you resist the Miyoshi family, you will also be killed! ”

"They can't do that! We want to rebel against the Miyoshi family! We're going to rebel! Be sure to give it a go! The shouts resumed, and the samurai became more and more immune to the word "Ichichi", and were obviously much calmer than the commotion just now, and the bold young samurai shrank at the back of the line and laughed quietly, as if they regarded the roar of the five thousand people as a play.

Omi's somura system was still partially preserved, such as Takashima Shichita, who received the privilege of guarding the inadmissibility from the Rokkaku family, and Hieizan Enryakuji not only had this privilege, but also the privilege of not entering the taxes, and if the local lords did not take a long time to infringe on their rights, these people would take up arms and form an army, defeat the lord's army, and force or kill the lord to prove that their privileges were not violated.

Kira Yoshitoki wanted to use the peasants from Somura to constantly stimulate their anger hidden in the blood, and only the angry peasants could burst out with great power, and he suddenly shouted, "You have nothing! You can't go back! When we lose this war, it will be the countdown to your death! You die, your wives, your parents, your brothers will be humiliated, and then you will be killed in the revolt, and we will die! And you will be wiped out! Tell me it's your choice? ”

"Never!" The 5,000 crowd erupted in anger, and some timid people began to have a nervous breakdown, and it didn't take long for them to fall to the ground, and their bodies emitted a burst of urine smell, and their mouths muttered vaguely: "I don't want to die!" My father and mother are gone, and I still have younger siblings at home, so I really can't die! ”

The same thing occasionally appears in the crowd of 5,000 people, there are brave people and there are timid people, this is human nature, he has not had the luxury of expecting 5,000 peasant soldiers to treat death as if they were at home, but the current crisis must let these people do those things that they couldn't do, otherwise why should he fight for three good families? How many of Omi's samurai believed that these 5,000 peasant soldiers were really as elite as the Shikoku people who survived the Ten Rivers?

Everyone knew that it was impossible, but no one wanted to say it, and if the samurai were not strong, how bad would the will of these peasants be? If they are really defeated by a wave of surprise attacks, he will be able to roll up and roll back to Mikawa when he is righteous.

"Of course you don't want to die! My family doesn't want to die either! The trapped beast in the cage still knows the death match, but what about me as the spirit of all things? In the face of the threat of death, why not take up arms and bravely resist? Kira's voice suddenly rose and he shouted, "Do you know when the beast is most likely to be killed?" It's the moment they escape! Fighting to the death is not necessarily going to die! ”

"Yes...... Be! The five thousand peasant soldiers were stunned.

Kira Yoshishi suppressed his excitement a little, and asked in a loud voice, "The people standing here are all fellow villagers from Shiga and Takashima, do you all know each other?" ”

The peasants were overwhelmed by the rhythm of the ups and downs, and had to nod their heads mechanically, and some of the samurai began to quietly beat their chest sockets, as if overwhelmed by the rollercoaster-like process.

But Kira Yoshitoki didn't give them a chance to breathe, and said: "But when a coward appears among you, when he is afraid of the gun array in front of you, the rain of arrows splashing in the sky, or the other party's samurai on horseback rushing over, the moment he abandons you with his back and flees, when these selfish cowards ruthlessly abandon their comrades because of their own selfishness, and let the strict formation completely collapse, what should you do?" ”

"How...... How? The peasants and soldiers were a little speechless, timidity is human nature, one moment can be impassioned, the next moment can also abandon the stomach of their comrades and flee, it is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, they don't know what to do, so they looked at the young body on the stage with burning eyes, begging him to give an answer.

"You must not understand what a military strategy is! It's complicated to say, but it's actually quite simple! You are all farmers, you must know that a bundle of branches cannot be broken by hand, no matter how strong a woodcutter is, right? That's the way the military formation! The scattered army is like scattered branches, and the enemy will break as soon as it breaks, and the branches that are huddled can rely on the strength of the team to resist foreign enemies!

But one of you has been a shameful coward, and he has broken through the originally tight formation in order to escape, causing the formation to collapse, what is the final result? Everyone, including the forced escapee, is going to die! Because two legs can't outrun four legs, can you outrun the cavalry in armor? Those cowardly cowards never thought of this, so he ran away and killed everyone!

A despicable coward can turn a close battle into a one-sided slaughter! Three thousand people could have survived, but only three hundred survived, and the reason of the cowards is that I can't die for others while I live, but for whom are you who took up arms to die? Not to die for someone else!

It is for the land and farmland behind you, for your parents, wives and children! Tell me that you hate this coward who has broken everyone's homes and killed their relatives and friends because of the vile heart of a coward? If such a coward appears among you, what should you do with him? ”

Kira Yoshishi accentuated his tone and asked sharply, "Tell me!" What should you do? ”

At this moment, the not majestic children's voice roared out, but it made all the samurai present feel a trembling feeling from the soul, including Yamamoto Tokiyuki, the samurai couldn't help but change color, and the samurai of Omi were even more frightened, and some of them trembled like chaff all over their bodies, because they saw a terrible scene under the stage, like five thousand devils in hell.

"Kill him! Kill him! ”

One by one, the red-eyed peasant soldiers raised their weapons high, and roared with all their might, and the roar of 5,000 people shook the chaos on the stage, and the hearts of the samurai present were seized by this terrible momentum, and they looked at the peasants and soldiers in disbelief with their mouths wide open, is this still the group of honest peasants they know? Some of the samurai could no longer stand, and sat down a few steps back, their eyes full of horror and incomprehensible fear as they looked at the young governor.

"Crazy! It's all crazy! All crazy! All the Omi samurai thought of this sentence in their hearts at the same time, but they could no longer stay out of it, and could only tremble with the terrifying tsunami.
