Near the wide Diaoyu River, there are endless rice fields, barren grasses, bushes, and mountains and forests. In the afternoon, the sun shines directly on the surface of the Diaochuan River, reflecting bursts of phosphorescent light.

At this time, half of the army of the Zongxiang family had already crossed the Diaoyu River and were sorting their clothes on the south bank of the river, while the remaining half were still trekking in the river. In the mountains and bushes on both sides of the river, the soldiers of the Luo family stopped moving, and they all held the spears, knives, and bows and arrows in their hands firmly, for fear that one would accidentally fall to the ground and the other party would find them.

Hiding in a bush, Asakura Munetsu was staring intently at the situation on the river beach, even though sweat was dripping from his forehead due to the heat. Since he was born in the mountains and was most familiar with mountain and forest warfare, this time the lord gave him the responsibility of being the first to attack. This is an important duty, as if he attacks first, the rest of the people will attack as well, so he must choose a time to strike that will give the enemy maximum damage.

"Ready!" At this time, seeing that the time was almost up, Asakura Zongdi immediately whispered to a few Luo family members around him. The surrounding people immediately picked up the weapons in their hands tightly. Some of the archers who were the first attackers also pulled up their bows and arrows. The sharp arrows flashed in bursts of light from the sunlight shining through the cracks in the trees.

"Archers! Shoot! Not long after, Asakura Zongdi immediately shouted.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......" A rain of arrows shot out of the bushes and shot directly into the army of the Zongxiang family on the river beach below. And as one of the main goals of the archers. And it happened that Takasho Kurokawa, who was not far from Asakura Sodi's side, was instantly shot at the hedgehog. He fell to the ground with a scream. It's not alive anymore. Pity the war horse under his crotch and several kinship warriors next to him were also unlucky, and they were all shot and injured to varying degrees.

"Enemy attack!" The army of the Zongxiang family, who was suddenly attacked, immediately shouted.

As soon as the words of "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......" fell, a shower of arrows was shot from other places at the same time. Among the various standing teams of the Luo family, they are equipped with full-time bows and arrows of 250 people. In this round of shooting, many soldiers of the Zongxiang family were shot immediately, and those who were unlucky were directly out of breath, and those who were lucky were better. Also wounded.

"This? What's going on? "In the hinterland of his own territory, he was attacked, and judging by the number of bows and arrows, it seems that it was still a large-scale attack. Where the hell did these enemies come from? Zongxiang clan was immediately stunned.

Before the Zongxiang clan came to his senses, after shooting the first round of arrows, the standing members of the Luo family, under the leadership of their respective generals, came out from various hiding places one after another, and instantly formed a large formation on the south bank of the river, slowly advancing towards the army of the Zongxiang family.

And what about the Zongxiang family? Since some of the soldiers were still wading through the water at this time, even the other soldiers who had come ashore were standing in a mess because they were sorting out their clothes that had been wet by the river. In the event of a sudden attack, there is still a need to regroup. Immediately hula la-leg retreat. And when they saw the sudden appearance of such a large group of heavily armed enemy troops, they were even more alarmed. Especially the peasants and soldiers who were themselves captured and strong, they didn't wait for their respective group leaders to shout, and they turned around and began to flee.

At this time, the wooden bridge erected on both sides of the river suddenly became the target of everyone scrambling to climb, and for a while, many soldiers who had just climbed to the bridge deck were pushed back into the river.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Fukada Shijun, as an important minister in the family, could no longer care about the safety of the lord and the clan, so he directly turned the horse's head and rushed into the river, and then slapped the war horse under his crotch fiercely and went to the north bank of the river.

After some fluttering, he was about to reach the north bank of the river, and suddenly a group of men and horses were killed from the bushes on the river bank, and these were the other people who were responsible for blocking the escape path of the Zongxiang soldiers on the north bank. I saw that the leader was tall and tall, and with great steps, he came in front of Fukada Shijun who was about to jump ashore in two or three steps.

Fukada Shijun had no way to retreat at this time, and he expected that as long as he drove the war horse to jump hard, the other party would avoid it anyway, otherwise he would be hit by his war horse. So he gritted his teeth, shouted, slammed the horse's belly, closed his eyes, and jumped on the shore with the horse.

And the one who came to intercept Fukada Shijun was the main player of the third standing ashigaru team. Seeing that the other party jumped up without even wanting his life, he hurriedly flashed, but the mace in his hand also waved fiercely, and the "bump" just hit Fukada Shijun's right arm. Fukada, who was on the horse, felt a pain in his right arm, and then the whole person lost his balance on the horse's back and began to fall to the left side.

"Thief, run there!" At this time, Yoshiro Kawada on the other side also led another team of the Luo family to kill. Seeing that Fukada was about to escape, and Akuta seemed to be unable to stop him, he raised the spear in his hand and threw it forward. Originally, his idea was to use a spear to shoot the war horse under Fukada's crotch, and then delay Fukada's escape. Although both ordinary horses and war horses are great wealth for the Luo family, but when it comes to fighting, what is there to manage so much? With Yoshiro Kawada's throw, the spear shot straight into the horse's abdomen with a hot wind.

It was also the bad luck of Fukada Shitoshi, at this time he happened to be knocked over and dismounted by a stick from the bone, and in the process of falling from the horse's back, he happened to be in front of the horse's belly, and Kawada Yoshiro's spear was inserted directly from the back of his neck. Fukada didn't even have time to scream before he died.

At this time, under the desperate resistance of several relatives and samurai, the Zongxiang clan, who was also desperately fleeing to the north bank, happened to see this scene, and was immediately frightened. Fukada's death was so tragic that not only was a spear pierced through his neck from behind, but his body was dragged directly to the shore by the war horse, leaving a long trail of blood on the snow-white sands of the river on the north bank. What made the clan even more desperate was that there were also sneak attackers on the north shore. Apparently they have been in ambush for a long time. He immediately thought that someone in the family had lured the enemy into the hinterland of his family. And the object of his suspicion was naturally Xu Feishan City, Shi Pill City and other retainers who had asked for help from Baishi City before.

"Ahh

It's just that before he could guess which one was the one who betrayed his family, he felt a sharp pain coming from his back, and it turned out that he was hit by an arrow in the back. Long before the attack, Asakura Sodra and others had taken him as the main target of attack, and even now that the Sogakaji had fled to the middle of the river on a war horse, he was still constantly being shot at by the archers of the Luo family in the rear. Now he was unlucky to be shot. And this time not only was he shot, but even the war horse under his crotch was shot in the butt of the territory.

So under the pain, the war horse's buttocks were thrown fiercely, and the Zongxiang clan who was sitting on the horse suddenly couldn't keep his balance, and fell into the river with a "poof". What's even more unfortunate is that when the head first entered the water, it directly touched a rock at the bottom of the river, so he passed out directly. Afterwards, when the people of the Luo family finally scooped him up, he had already drowned.

And just as several major generals of the Zongxiang family's army had died one after another, on the river beach on the south bank of the Diaoyu River, the soldiers of the Zongxiang family had collapsed, and only a few diehard members of the Zongxiang family were still resisting. It was only when these routs saw that the north bank, the only way back, was also blocked, and they all felt that the future had come.

"Surrender or kill!"

"Surrender or kill!"

……

Seeing this scene, the troops of the Luo family, who were gradually surrounding, shouted one after another. (To be continued......)
