Chapter 183: The Great Cause is Successful, Return to Jinling
"Kill ......"
The shouts of killing rang out, and Li Qing looked intently, but saw an armed killer of 5,000 people coming, all armed with katanas, obviously the absolute elite of Ashikaga Yoshisho.
His speed is so fast, it is impossible for the other party to support him so quickly, and the only explanation is that Ashikaga Yoshisho is hiding his selfishness.
Li Qing's expression was a little playful, no wonder the journey was so smooth......
"Withdraw!"
"Stepping on ......"
The iron rider flew away, kicking up a cloud of dust, leaving only a piece of chicken feathers......
~
Ashikaga Yoshisho in the castle saw the smoke in the direction of the shogunate from afar, and he was shocked and angry, and his intestines were full of remorse.
If I knew this, I might as well listen to Katsuyuki Hosokawa.
He still set up ambushes everywhere in the city, vainly hoping to surround and annihilate him, not wanting an 800 iron cavalry to completely break his deployment.
Of course, the main reason is that the city was broken too quickly, almost in seconds, and it didn't give full play to the advantages of defending the city at all.
Now the encirclement is encircled, but the combat effectiveness of the warriors on Li Qing's side is too much beyond his expectations, and the difference in strength is twice as high, and it can't form an overwhelming advantage, which really annoys him.
Ashikaga Yoshisho did not underestimate the enemy, he made enough preparations to defend the city, and brought 15,000 armed men to fight, which can be said to be very respectful of the opponent.
In his opinion, fifteen thousand against eight thousand, the advantage is his.
But he didn't want to, just one face, the city gate was breached, and after the eight hundred iron cavalry broke through the siege and chased and intercepted, a fire lit the shogunate, and the battle process was too fast, he couldn't react at all.
Damn, damn it...... Ashikaga Yoshinora gritted his teeth.
He thought that he had paid enough attention to Li Qing, but he still suffered a loss from the enemy.
At the same time, he also had a deep sense of remorse, if he listened to Hosokawa Katsuyuki's advice and went out of the city to fight with all his might, it would never have been such an effect.
But now, it's too late to say anything.
Hosokawa Katsuyuki secretly sneered: Kindness is treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, stupid, right? Are you still strong?
"Katsuyuki Hosokawa!"
ââŠâŠ At. Hosokawa Katsuyuki's expression froze, and he stepped forward and bowed, "What does the Ashikaga king command?" â
"What about your people?" Ashikaga Yoshisho shouted angrily: "How many days have it been? â
Hosokawa Katsu sneered in his heart, but his face was respectful: "I guess I can arrive tomorrow at the latest." â
"Tomorrow ......" Ashikaga Yoshisho gritted his teeth and said hatefully to the other daimyo in the city, "What about yours?" â
Everyone was annoyed in their hearts, but they didn't dare to offend, and said respectfully: "It's almost over." â
"After this battle, if you come late, this king will not be spared." Ashikaga Yoshisho was angry, but he didn't realize that his daimyo was already dissatisfied with him.
It's just that he doesn't dare to rebel at the moment.
Hosokawa Katsuyuki's face suddenly changed, and he exclaimed, "He killed again." â
Everyone followed the direction to look, and sure enough, they saw the incomparable momentum of the iron horse, stepping on, although it was less than eight hundred, but it was earth-shattering.
"He has cavalry, and I have cavalry." Ashikaga Yoshisho gritted his teeth and immediately gave orders in the city, intending to have a cavalry against cavalry.
How dare you...... Hosokawa Katsuyuki shook his head secretly, and said in his heart: I don't look at what equipment other people's cavalry has, what configuration the samurai have, are you worthy?
Not worthy of it!
Ashikaga Yoshisho soon discovered the gap between the cavalry on both sides, and couldn't help but be incompetent and furious again, he was about to break the defense.
If he continues to fight like this, he may lose.
Fortunately, half an hour later, his five thousand elites rushed over, stabilized the situation again, and faintly gained the upper hand.
The battlefield of the battle became more and more chaotic, but Li Qing's location was extremely easy to identify, and wherever he was, there was an armed vacuum, and all the people who faced him were immediately lifted away.
"Capture the thief and capture the king, kill him first......" Ashikaga Yoshisho was shocked and muttered in his mouth.
Hosokawa Katsuyuki's forehead: You really dare to think about it!
The situation has developed so far, and he has seen that Ashikaga Yoshisho has little chance of winning, and even if he really wins, he will definitely lose to the point where it will not be.
The time has come for the Hosokawa clan...... His eyes were clear.
While Li Qing was fighting frantically, he was also measuring the impact on Japan's national pattern after this war.
Eight thousand against twenty thousand, a victory is also a miserable victory, and he is also worried that the damage is too severe and will collapse before the end of the battle.
The situation does not allow for the fight to the last soldier, after all, most people have never experienced such a hard battle.
Once it collapsed, he had to work again.
The battle must be ended before the damage exceeds the samurai's psychological defenses!
There is only one way left for Li Qing, capture the thief and capture the king!
It's just that the number of people on both sides combined, a battle of more than 20,000 people, if you want to capture the thief and the king, it is too difficult.
The war horse can't run anymore, and the two sides are scuffling together, and they can't rush forward at all, so it's easy to accidentally injure their own people.
Li Qing could only use the most strenuous and simple and crude method to kill the past step by step and kill it to the city.
âŠ
The battlefield was in chaos, the melee was completely unfolded, and more than ninety percent of the people were deeply trapped in it, and they couldn't withdraw from the battlefield if they wanted to, and the battlefield became a purgatory.
Li Qing abandoned all distracting thoughts and rushed to kill all the way, completely ignoring the consumption of physical strength and true qi.
He went all the way and killed ten people in one step.
A quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour......
After half an hour, Li Qing's strength declined more and more seriously, and he could no longer maintain a high level of lethality, but he also killed the city.
At this time, he was soaked in blood, and he couldn't see his true appearance, and his lethality was weakened, so many daimyo in the city did not find him.
But Hosokawa Katsuyuki found out that his gaze had been on Li Qing, and he never looked away.
Seeing that Li Qing was about to be killed, his face changed greatly, but he didn't remind him, but quietly retreated alone.
"Up!"
Li Qing took a deep breath, rose from the ground suddenly, jumped two meters high, and borrowed strength in the air to jump to the top of the city.
Many daimyos: "? â
Hosokawa Katsuyuki turned his head and ran wildly, without looking back.
Ashikaga Yoshisho was stunned, suddenly understood, and shouted, "Stop him!" â
There were not many samurai in the castle, and apart from many daimyos, there were no more than 100 guards.
Although Li Qing's state has declined severely, he can still destroy the withering and decaying. gÅÎ b.Åγg
"Puff ......"
A katana remnant continues, frantically harvesting, and it is terrifying.
At this time, the daimyo realized that the evil star had come up, and they all turned around and fled.
However, it was too late.
Li Qing forcibly opened fire against his tired body, and his lethality returned to its peak state again.
"Bang... Click...... Poof! â
Some of these people were shot to death, some were kicked to death, and some were hacked to death...... and fell as a lamb to the slaughter.
In fact, they can resist, and they also have the power to resist, but they lack courage, and the so-called bushido is just a means for their subordinates.
But the more they were afraid of death, the faster they died, and they fell one by one......
"Ashikaga Yoshiono!"
Li Qingmeng's roar was deafening.
Ashikaga Yoshisho reflexively turned around, but saw a chill rapidly magnifying.
"Poof......
Li Qing held his head in his hand, standing on top of the city, with a melodious breath: "The king of Ashikaga is dead, quickly put down his weapons, and those who descend will not be killed!" â
"Ashikaga is dead, and those who descend will not be killed!"
"Those who descend will not be killed!"
Li Qing waved his head, repeating it constantly, and gradually had an effect, and the battle slowly eased down, some people fled, and some people abandoned their weapons......
After a quarter of an hour, the battle subsided.
Most of Ashikaga Yoshisao's forces fled, leaving only three or four thousand men who were slow to react, surrounded in the center.
There is no way, there are not many warriors on Li Qing's side, only about five thousand left, and they can't take care of it at all.
It's already good to leave three or four thousand......
âŠâŠ
After this war, there was no shogunate in Japan, no emperor, Ashikaga Yoshisho died, and more than half of the daimyo in various places were lost!
After this war, the bondage of careerists was completely unfolded.
Lower gram up,
These three words will become the main theme of Japan, and the main theme for a long time to come......
Collect the remnants, reward them, pay them for their bereavement, and recruit ...... After finishing these, it was already March of the fourteenth year of Chenghua.
Li Qing took advantage of the victory to pursue and once again attacked the powerful daimyo in Japan, and the Hosokawa clan bore the brunt.
Hosokawa Katsuyuki, who lived for a few more months, failed to escape the fate of defeat and death, and the Hosokawa Kyozhao family was wiped out.
In May, Li Qing destroyed all the first-class daimyo.
Then, he named Inoue Saburo as the general and Murakami as the prime minister, and made the core dozens of elite samurai the daimyo guard.
On the surface, this is tantamount to establishing a new order, but it is not.
This armed force is powerful because he is there, and as soon as he leaves, the desire for power will grow rapidly.
Inoue Saburo and Murakami have always been at odds, and those elite samurai are all fierce men who fight, but they are not materials for the guardian generation.
The rapid expansion of power, they simply can't grasp it.
And the most core samurai promotion treatment, after he leaves, will definitely cease to exist.
No one can be so selfless!
The scale of the war in the future may not be too large, but the intensity of the fighting will only be stronger.
Because their ambition was pushed to the extreme by Li Qing, the fall of the shogunate and the severance of the imperial family further nourished the desire of the careerist.
Princes and generals, would you rather have a kind?
I believe that many people will have this mentality.
Inoue Saburo and Murakami were very reluctant and happy that the great god was leaving, because the great god had delegated power to them.
Li Qing knew that there must be a struggle between the two.
However, out of humanitarianism, he still said: "Don't live up to the foundation I have laid." â
The two of them should say yes.
But what they think in their hearts, only they know.
Li Qing was too lazy to care about these anymore, and walked very freely......
~
Mid-July.
Jinling.
Li Qing is back.
He strolled through the streets, admiring the bustling scene, hundreds of years have passed, and the change here is not much, if there is a change, it is to become more prosperous.
"That's good......" Li Qing's face was full of joy.
He went to the pear orchard to listen to the play, went to the drunken fairy building to drink flower wine, two and a half years of running, he was too tired.
Now that the big thing has been accomplished, you can't relax and relax.
And so, half a moon passed......
On this day, Li Qing, who had rested, knocked on the door of the Yongqing Marquis Mansion.
