The battle was on the verge of breaking out, and Lucius didn't give Takeda Koji much time to think about it, and brazenly waved the blade in his hand, and rushed directly towards Takeda Koji.

Seeing that Lucius actually chose to take the initiative to attack, a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of Takeda Koji's mouth, and his arm involuntarily tightened the reins of the horse, and at the moment when Lucius rushed closer, he suddenly let his horse raise its front hooves and kicked towards the rushing Lucius.

Everyone was stunned when they saw this scene, whether it was the villagers in the village or the samurai who followed Takeda Koji, no one thought that Lucius would dare to directly ram Takeda Koji on horseback.

Although Fuso is an island country, due to years of war and the breeding of a large number of horses imported from Middle-earth, the strength of the Fuso samurai on horseback is also extraordinary.

It can be said that no one will go head-on with a samurai on horseback, because these specially domesticated horses in Fuso usually have a very strong physique, and in order to allow the horses to withstand the power of the samurai's ghosts, many horses have even grown up under the power of the gods since childhood.

Therefore, in the face of such horses that are nourished by the power of ghosts and gods, even those ghost warriors who have mastered the power of ghosts do not dare to confront and collide with them head-on.

Even some precious horses, which can obtain the divine power bestowed by the ghosts and gods, have almost been demonized, and even ordinary ghost warriors may not be their opponents.

Takeda Koji's mount is a horse that has grown up under the influence of Takeda Hikari Ghost God since he was a child, and it can be said that he has almost reached the semi-demonic Cheng Dù, except for Takeda Koji, any samurai under his command can hardly get close to this horse, and the horse is already a powerful combat partner by his side.

When he saw Lucius directly ramming his horse, Takeda Koji was already happy in his heart, and he planned to raise the front hooves of his horse. Kick Lucius in the head.

"Be careful......" Seeing Lucius rushing in front of the horse, especially seeing the horse's hooves falling like two sharp blades, Sakura Rinko who was hiding in the crowd couldn't help but exclaim.

But the next moment, Lucius directly made a mistake and let go of the horse's front hooves, instantly rushed to the side of the horse, raised the blade in his hand and slashed at Takeda Koji on the horse's back.

Koji Takeda never imagined that Lucius would be able to escape from under the horse's hooves in such a situation, and he would be able to rush to the side of the horse in an instant.

Seeing the blade slash towards him, Koji Takeda could hardly believe his eyes for a moment. It felt as if what I was seeing was nothing but my own delusion.

However, out of the instinct of a samurai close to the ghost warrior, even though he thought it might be an illusion, Koji Takeda still directly pulled out the katana in his hand and swung the katana to meet the slashing blade.

"When" sparks burst out in an instant, but everyone only heard the sound of metal clashing, and everyone was horrified to see that another blade in Lucius's hand had slashed into Takeda Koji's shoulder, and blood flowed down the blade. Koji Takeda didn't even notice the slightest pain.

It was so sudden that Koji Takeda didn't have time to react, turned his head to look at the blade that slashed into his shoulder, and was stunned for a moment before finally noticing the pain coming from his shoulder.

The next meaning is to wave the katana in his hand. He wanted to knock the blade of his shoulder away, but he didn't concentrate, he didn't have time to react at all, and Lucius just picked it lightly. He took the katana in his hand and flew away.

The other blade was already on his neck, and the icy chill made Koji Takeda finally come to his senses, and he sat on the back of the horse and straightened up to avoid the blade on his neck.

"Uh......" However, what Koji Takeda didn't expect was. He only moved his body, and in an instant he pulled the blade that slashed into his shoulder, so that he had to bow his body again, curled up on the horse's back, and did not dare to make any more movements, only to look at Lucius in horror.

Lucius said very boringly: "It's really boring, I can't imagine that your warriors of Fusang Country are so weak, I advise you not to move, or obediently let your horse lie down."

Hearing Lucius's reminder, Takeda Koji suddenly remembered something, and quietly moved the reins he was holding in his hand, wanting to let the horse burst out of ghost power and help him get rid of Lucius's control.

But his small movements had already been seen by Lucius, and before the horse he was sitting on could move, Lucius suddenly cut off the blade that was sitting on his throat, along with one of Takeda Koji's arms and reins, and at the same time the blade also slashed at the back of the horse that wanted to move.

"Ah...... ......The screams of the people and the neighing of the horses echoed through the entire village, and everyone in the village was terrified.

The horse, which was fed by the power of the demons and gods, finally gave in to Lucius and took the initiative to curl up his four hooves and sit down on his knees, so that Takeda Koji and Lucius were level.

Even though one of his hands was cut off, Koji Takeda was still unconvinced, holding his severed arm, he shouted in shame and anger: "Damn it, you, do you know that I am the eldest son of the Takeda family, if you cut off my arm, you will bear the wrath of the Takeda family." ”

With a slight force in his hand, the blade of the blade had already slashed at Koji Takeda's shoulder, and then went deep into his shoulder blade again, and the unbearable pain almost made him faint.

Koji Takeda took a deep breath of cold air, gritted his teeth and didn't scream, the anger in his eyes gradually turned into horror, and then he got down from the horse that was already kneeling on the ground under the pressure of Lu Xunsi.

To Lucius's surprise, Koji Takeda, who was standing in front of him, was actually a head shorter than him, and it seemed that he was even shorter than the samurai around him.

Lucius couldn't help but smile and said, "Hehe, no wonder you are riding on a horse, it turns out that you are a short man." ”

In fact, Takeda Koji is indeed not very tall, even in Fuso Country, where Pu Pian is lower, Takeda Koji is also a short man.

It was precisely because of his short stature that he was not liked by his father, and when he was young, he was almost bullied by his brothers, and he had almost no status in the Takeda family.

It wasn't until he entered the shrine for the first time, that is, when he was nine years old, that he entered the shrine for the ghost selection ceremony, and Koji Takeda unexpectedly got the approval of a powerful ghost god, and since he had a powerful ghost god, Koji Takeda's status in the Takeda family has changed dramatically.

Although his father still didn't like him, he was recognized by powerful ghosts, naturally by the elders of the Takeda family, and even with the support of another Takeda family daimyo of the previous generation, that is, his uncle, so that he really got the qiē that the eldest son should have.

From then on, Koji Takeda rode almost always on horseback, except for those elders of the Takeda family, he almost never dismounted, deliberately avoiding the fact that others would find out that he was short.

Although the samurai under his command knew his height disadvantage, almost no one dared to say anything about his height, let alone say that he was a "short man" to his face.

At this moment, hearing Lucius say that he was a short man, Takeda Koji's eyes suddenly cracked, and he was about to fight with Lucius with his round eyes, but before he could use his strength, he was forced by the blade of his shoulder, and the pain made him unable to exert even a trace of strength.

Lucius could feel that Koji Takeda was very concerned about being called "Shorty", but he still smiled and sarcastically said: "Do you know? As a samurai, you must first face yourself and be able to face the cynicism of others, so that you can become a real strong man, and blindly avoiding can only make you cowardly." ”

Koji Takeda looked at Lucius with a shocked face, and whispered for a long time, "You know what? Someone once said something similar to me. ”

Hearing this, Lucius suddenly pulled out the blade that had slashed into his shoulder, and shook the mechanical blade with both hands to transform it back into a firearm, and then he retracted the firearm under his side.

Seeing this, Takeda Koji didn't expect that Lucius would let himself go like this, originally Takeda Koji thought that Lucius would inevitably kill him forever, but now it seems that the other party doesn't seem to take him in his eyes at all, and disdains to cut him down.

After putting away the firearm, Lucius smiled and grabbed Koji Takeda's severed wrist, pulled out a few silver needles from the metal box on his waist, and stabbed them directly into Koji Takeda's arm, helping him stop the bleeding from the broken arm.

Looking at the silver needle at his broken wrist, Koji Takeda couldn't help but exclaim, "You, you didn't say that you are from the West, but why do you know the medical skills of Middle-earth?"

Hearing this, Lucius smiled and said: "Hehe, I learned these from an aunt from Middle-earth, today is the first time I have used them on a living person, but it seems that the effect is really good, let the people under your command lay down their weapons and surrender, I don't want to continue killing." ”

Koji Takeda suddenly took two steps back, distanced himself from Lucius, and let his samurai protect him, then stared at Lucius and said, "You let me go, think I will be obedient to your mercy?"

The villagers originally thought that the crisis had been resolved, but when they saw that Koji Takeda didn't seem to be going to do it, they suddenly became nervous again.

Instead, Lucius said with a relaxed face: "It seems that you are really not giving up, do you think you are my opponent? Now that you have broken one arm, don't you want the other hand anymore? Or do you have to take thousands of people under your command to the funeral together?"

Hearing Lucius say that there were several thousand men under his command, Takeda Koji was shocked again, and when he entered the village, he only took a few hundred people with him, and a large number of samurai were hidden in the woods outside the village.

He was ready to wait for his orders to launch a surprise attack on the village, but now it seemed that the other party had already understood it.

Looking at his broken wrist, and then at the samurai around him, as well as at the villagers with nervous faces, Takeda Koji hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed and said: "Your Excellency is indeed very strong, I, Takeda Koji, am not your opponent, it seems that I have no other choice than to compromise with you."
