Chapter Eighty-Five: Ito Strikes

At night, after Tia was asleep, Ao Xingfeng once again found a secluded place and entered the Shogun 2 All-Out War. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Welcome back, sir. The adjutant said respectfully.

Ao Xingfeng nodded, then walked to the main hall and sat down on the main seat, I don't know where the retainers got the news, they rushed over.

"Chao Jian, how's the suppression?" Seeing that everyone had arrived, Ao Xingfeng asked.

"I'm so sorry, but there are many peasants here who support the Ito family, and these farmers have provided shelter for the old party of the Ito family, and there are still many old parties sedition. Chao Jian crawled on the ground and didn't dare to look up.

"What a stupid bunch of peasants, who have their hands on the alternating turn of the rulers, kill all those who resist, and on the other hand appease the peasants who are in a calm mood. Ao Xingfeng said murderously.

Although the retainers were shocked, they still accepted Ao Xingfeng's order, and the Shimazu army stationed in Osumi Castle started an unprecedented massacre, and all those who did not cooperate with the Shimazu family fell to the ground.

When Ao Xingfeng was the only one left in the hall, "My lord, you are not wise to do this. The adjutant appeared in front of him and said.

"I know, but I have to suppress the morale of the people here as soon as possible, and then build the Ito family's stronghold. Ao Xingfeng said.

"I see, it's just that excessive killing will only make people fear you and lose respect, and the other daimyo will think very badly of you. If this near-slaughter reaches the ears of Ashikaga shoguns, I'm afraid they will let the daimyo come to crusade against you. The adjutant said.

"That's true, but I have to destroy the Ito family as soon as possible, because I'll need to be away for a while in two days. Ao Xingfeng said.

"I see, so my lord is worried about a fire in the rear during the attack on Higo Castle?" said the adjutant thoughtfully.

"Then the lord collects the information of the Ito family as soon as possible, as the so-called knowing oneself and knowing the other side will not be defeated in a hundred battles, as a great master, Ito's strength is definitely not only that, Osumi Castle should be just an outside. The adjutant said.

Ao Xingfeng agreed with the adjutant's suggestion, in any case, it is very important to gather the opponent's intelligence first.

At this moment, Ao Xingfeng just got up from his seat, and Ao Xingfeng's little surname Shibata hurriedly ran over.

"What made you so out of shape?" Ao Xingfeng asked.

"My lord, the Ito family's army has appeared ten miles away!" Shibata said breathlessly.

"Shibata, how can you panic over such a trivial matter? Ao Xingfeng said, and Shibata left in a panic.

"My lord!" This is a kind of retainers such as Asagashi who have returned to Honmaru, and are planning to inform Ao Xingfeng of the attack of the Ito army.

"I already have a general understanding of the situation, how many people are coming?" Ao Xingfeng asked.

"Back to my lord, it's about 500~550. Chao Jian replied.

"Just 500 people dare to come and make trouble? It's really a laugh to laugh off the big teeth, gather the army out of the city to fight!" Ao Xingfeng said, Chaojian and the others were ordered to quickly gather the troops in the square of Honmaru, Shibata panted and ran over with a big knife on his shoulder.

Picking up the 1.5-meter big knife (Ye Tai Dao), Ao Xingfeng stepped on the horse and led the army to rush out.

In the fields of Osumi Castle, the Ito family is the head of the house, and Ito Yoshisuke is at the front of the team on horseback.

"My lord, the people of the Shimazu family are coming to us out of the city. One of the scouts said as he ran up to Yoshisuke.

Kodama Hiromoto, the general of the Ito family, said: "Lord, since they have given up their advantage and chose to go out of the city to face the battle, this is very beneficial to us, and we can take this opportunity to quickly line up." ”

Yoshisuke Ito nodded: "Pass the order, immediately line up and prepare for battle!"

The soldiers of the Ito family formed a phalanx and trampled a lot of crops in the fields, and because of the paddy fields, many ashigaru almost all of their calves were submerged in the mud.

It didn't take long for the flag of the Shimazu family to appear in their field of vision.

Ao Xingfeng rushed to the front of the battle with a murderous spirit, Ito Yoshisuke frowned, and Ao Xingfeng's tall body was like a wall, horizontal in front of their eyes.

Most of the horses in Japan are dwarf ponies, and Ao Xingfu rides on a horse like an adult riding on a foal, which looks quite funny.

"The evil seed of the Shimazu family, let me take off your head today!" yelled Yoshisuke Ito.

"It's useless to talk too much, archers!" Ao Xingfeng dismounted and roared, and then 120 arrows turned into an arc, some fell into the enemy line, and some did not know where to fly.

Ao Xingfeng shook his head with a straight look, and the archers of the same Ito Yoshisuke also released arrows, but they only hit the same vegetables.

"The whole army is assaulted!" Ao Xingfeng raised his big sword and shouted, and the samurai spear team and the ashigaru team rushed forward in one go.

"Chao Jian, I have handed over all the mother's clothes to you, take off Ito Yoshisuke's head at the right time!" Ao Xingfeng turned his head to look at Chao Jian on the horse and said.

"Yes, everyone come with me!" Asahi took the order and wandered around the battlefield with a group of mothers, causing psychological suppression to the Ashigaru of the Ito family.

"Hiromoto, bring someone to stop them for me!" said Yoshisuke Ito.

The battlefield was thus divided into two parts, one side for the infantry to fight hand-to-hand, and the other side for the cavalry to contain each other.

Ao Xingfeng looked at the Ito family's 'army' almost ashigaru, except for the spear ashigaru is the bow ashigaru, and there is also a group of elite samurai retainers on his side.

Yoshisuke Ito also saw this problem, there is not much difference between the two sides in terms of numbers, but the elite of the Shimazu family is much more than his own side, just talking about the samurai spear team on the battlefield, there are no two or three guns Ashigaru can't stop it at all, this is also a helpless thing, after all, the samurai pikemen are composed of squire, and Ashigaru is a group of peasants, how can a farmer wielding this hoe all day long be the opponent of a samurai wielding a sword all day long?

"No! It's only a matter of time before it's crushed. Yoshisuke Ito clenched his fists and quickly scanned the entire battlefield.

"Go around to the woods on the left side of the battlefield!" Ito Yoshisuke's eyes lit up, and then ordered his own bowfoot to head towards the woods.

Ao Xingfeng looked at the woods on the right, and if the opponent's archers were allowed to reach the woods on the right first, the right side of the spearhead and samurai pikemen would be completely exposed to the enemy's arrows.

"Ladies of the Samurai Retainers, go and stop the Ito family's Yushigaru!" Ao Xingfeng said, and then the Samurai Retainers led the order.

"Huh. Ito Yoshisuke saw Ao Xingfeng transfer the samurai retainers away, and the corners of his mouth curved strangely.

Due to the distance between the two, Ao Xingfeng didn't notice Ito Yoshisuke's smirk, and didn't know that this was just a trick by Ito Yoshisuke.

When the samurai retainers collided with the opponent's bow foot, Ao Xingfeng vaguely felt that something was wrong, and the actions he ordered the samurai retainers were not hidden, all of them were exposed to Ito Yoshisuke's eyes, according to Ao Xingfeng's assumption, when Ito Yoshisuke saw Ao Xingfeng's samurai retainers group dispatched, the bow foot light would inevitably return, otherwise this group of bow foot light would be completely sent to death.

But knowing that the people of the samurai retainers completely entered the ranks of the bow foot light, Ao Xingfeng's idea was broken, he didn't know why Ito Yoshisuke wanted to send this group of people to death, well? Send them to death? Ao Xingfeng frowned, the enemy's bow foot light behavior was completely tantamount to sending him to death, but Ao Xingfeng didn't believe that Ito Yoshisuke would be so stupid as a family head, if he wanted to let the bow foot light die, then there must be a reason for the comparison.

So what is the reason? It wasn't until the cries of the rebels came from behind him that Ao Xingfeng realized that this was what Yoshisuke Ito was aiming for, and he succeeded.
