Chapter 52: Steep Change

In the early morning of May 11, the ninth year of Astronomy, the Kogi family and the Fujiwara family, who had been hastily preparing for a night, sent troops from their own territory to sacrifice flags. After more than an hour of travel, the two families finally met at the border with the Tahara family's territory, and the small pine forest crossed borders. After a brief discussion, the two families immediately joined forces, and a total of more than 200 troops marched mightily towards the checkpoint of Tahara's house.

Receiving the news that the two families were about to attack, the dozen or so ashigaru of the Tahara family who were in charge of guarding the checkpoint immediately drilled into the surrounding woods without thinking about it, and they planned to come out after seeing the situation, as for fighting for the Tahara family? Don't do stupid things, the other party has hundreds of people now, and it's not enough for a few people like me to even stuff people's teeth.

Faced with the empty checkpoint, the two soldiers easily occupied the checkpoint, but they did not stop, not even leaving a single soldier behind, but continued to move forward non-stop. After the coalition forces, the Tahara family, who had escaped, came out of the woods one after another, some of them took a detour to hide back to their homes, and some of them took a small road and hurried to report the letter.

The two coalition forces were like a bamboo all the way, until they finally encountered the troops of the Tahara family who came in a hurry a mile away from the checkpoint. On the wide field, the two armies were fifty meters apart, shaking opposite each other. On one side of the two coalition forces, on the left is the Fujiwara family, with about 160 troops, and directly opposite it is the Tahara family's troops of about 170 people; On the right is the Kogi family, with a force of about 90 people, and directly opposite it is a team of about 50 bandits sent by the "Banshi Dalang". Although the two coalition armies were superior in numbers, in terms of the number of samurai that determined the trend of the battlefield, the two coalition armies of Kogi and Fujiwara had less than 30 samurai, while the Tahara coalition army on the other side had nearly 40 samurai, so in general, the two armies could be said to be evenly matched.

Xiao Mu Daizo, who was wearing simple armor on the right, scolded first, "Old thief Tahara, you killed my own son, and today I will definitely break your body into ten thousand pieces." ”

Fujiwara Pingxin of Zuo Ze also scolded, "Tahara traitor, today I will kill you, an unfaithful man, for the ancestor of the dead Fujihei family." ”

"Hahaha, Fujiwara Nozoe, are you finally willing to come out with a shrunken turtle? I thought you'd stay in your lair and wouldn't look up? The Fujiwara family has such a wild species as you, which really damages the prestige of the past. Xiaomu old thing, your father surrendered to the prestige of my family back then, and has been groveling, today you rebel against the lord, I will cut off your head and use it to serve wine", Tahara Tadashi also did not show weakness, sneered in his heart, what killed your own son, it was just nonsense, everything was just to send troops to harass and find the so-called righteousness.

"Huh?" , Fujiwara Pingxin and Kogi Daizou were furious, and Fujiwara Pingxin shouted, "Everyone, the target is the head of the old thief Tahara, and the person who takes the head of the old thief of Tahara will be rewarded with five anti-rice fields and ten stones of brown rice." Kill! ”。 On the other side, Xiao Mu Daizo also shouted, "Those who take the head of the old thief in Tahara will be rewarded with fifty stones of brown rice, and killed!" ”

"Kill!" , The soldiers behind the two were excited when they heard this, the five anti-rice fields are good, and their own fields can be regarded as a low-level little tyrant, such a good thing to find there, so everyone shouted and rushed forward.

"The target Fujiwara wild seed and the head of the old thing of Xiaomu, take its head, reward the good paddy field six anti, brown rice fifty stone", Tahara Tadashi is not to be outdone, you are ruthless, I am even more ruthless. Hearing this, the ashigaru behind him also rushed to the opposite side with a roar as if he had been beaten with chicken blood. Even the group of bandits next to them were in a hurry, screaming and rushing towards each other.

Seeing this situation, Tahara Tadashi was suddenly in a good mood. The effect is good, especially those bandits, in fact, he has been carefully monitoring the every move of these bandits, and now seeing that they are also fighting hard, he can't help but look up to the sky and laugh. …,

"Fifty steps, forty steps, thirty steps......", as the distance between the two armies continued to shrink, the faces of the Kogi family on the opposite side became clearer and clearer, and Tadajiro also silently calculated in his heart. A few long arrows occasionally shot from the opposite side, but at such a distance, they were powerless and lethal. When the distance between the two sides was about to enter the distance of twenty paces, and the power of the bow and arrow was about to increase, Tadajiro suddenly shouted, "Do it", and then took the lead and ran towards the edge of the field on the right, followed by the "bandits" behind him.

In fact, this was a plan that Masayo had ordered Hao Lu early on, and he was about to escape from the battlefield when he was about to enter the battlefield. For the territory, every ashigaru is very valuable, especially since this ashigaru team also contains several former bandits who have turned into blacksmiths, and Masara has never planned to fight hard for the Tahara family, even if it is a casualty of one person. As for the fear of being accused of being untrustworthy by other powerful people? Just kidding, these are all wild mountain thieves, and they have nothing to do with the Luo family's hair. What's more, everyone knows that there is one who can preach faith? Even the so-called righteousness is just a cloth to cover the ugly.

The sudden change on the battlefield took both sides by surprise. Tahara Tadashi's smile stopped abruptly, his big mouth full of yellow teeth still maintained the "O" shape when he smiled, and as the bandit went away quickly, he finally reacted, his face suddenly became hideous, his eyes were bloodshot, and he shouted in the direction where the bandit was gone, "Damn bandit, what are you doing?" The "bandits" in the wild run did not have any response, just continued to bury their heads in the life and run wildly, at this time they could not help but run wildly, the long arrows behind them shot one after another, although there were not many arrows, but there were already two "bandits" running behind the most "bandits" arm arrows, fortunately not in the legs of the arrows, otherwise it would greatly slow down the speed of the team's escape.

"Aha", this time it was Xiaomu Daizang who looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, and then shouted, "Quick, don't chase those bandits, head towards the old thief of Tahara, and target the head of the old thief of Tahara." The people who were originally chasing the bandits immediately turned around and quickly surrounded the forces of the Tahara family.

At this time, the forces of the Fujiwara family and the Tawara family had already collided, and after more than ten years of fighting, some relatives in both camps were more or less injured in each other's hands, and the so-called enemies were extremely red when they met, and the two sides were immediately entangled together. The Fujiwara family's troops also saw the sudden situation next to them at this time, and their morale suddenly rose.

The Tahara family, on the other hand, was caught in a dilemma. Let's fight to the end, under the sudden escape of the bandits, the Tahara family is completely at a disadvantage, and it is very likely to be a crushing defeat in the end, especially now when it is suddenly attacked and morale is low; Run away with all your might, it is very likely that the troops will rush to escape, thus exposing the flanks, and it will be impossible to organize an effective counterattack, and will only become a lamb to the slaughter, so that is the time for the destruction of the Tahara family. Tahara Tadayoshi hesitated slightly, and it was this moment of hesitation that caused the Kogi family's troops to quickly block the back road of the Tawara family, and for a while, they combined with the Fujiwara family to attack the Tahara family. The morale of the Tahara family was once again greatly damaged, and Ashigaru was killed one after another.

"Ahh , Tahara Tadayoshi shouted, "Everyone, now that our back road is cut off, please fight bravely to kill the enemy, after this battle, no matter life or death, I will reward each family with fifty stone fried rice." Seeing that the back road was blocked, Tahara Tadashi also knew that there was only one way to fight to the death, and in order to boost morale, he immediately promised a heavy reward. Some of Ashigaru immediately rose to the challenge, but more Ashigaru still slowly retreated, moving closer to the woods on the left. Although the reward is heavy, it must be enjoyed by life, and in the current situation, it is very likely that you will lose your life. Anyway, as long as they hide at home after escaping, the lord who wins in the end will not go door to door to investigate their crimes.

"Kill", Tahara Tadayoshi took the lead in pulling out the sword and killing forward, at this time he didn't take the lead, and the Tahara family was not far from destruction. The kinship samurai behind him followed. For a while, the two sides came and went, fighting together.
