Yiyin and his cavalry attacked. Not only was Dao Shengmeng accidentally rescued, but the pursuers behind him were also confused.
The Zahe people didn't know that the Iga army had entered Yamato and killed them for two days, and the scattered troops were still having wild carnivales everywhere.
At this time, they suddenly encountered the elite horseback troops of Iga led by Yoshigan, and they were naturally defeated in one blow.
Half of the pursuers were stabbed to death by horseback warriors before they could react, while the other half went around the village insulting men, robbing finances, and defeated them one by one.
Iron cannons have no accuracy at a distance of twenty paces and are slow to reload. Their power depends entirely on large numbers of salvo barrages.
These miscellaneous people have reached the peak of their lives in the past few days. They are getting carried away with themselves and have no sense of caution.
Those who were so lazy were naturally killed miserably, and they didn't even know how they died.
It wasn't until the last few of them woke up amidst the endless cries, howls, and begs for mercy from their companions that they fled out of the village.
But as luck would have it, five teams mobilized by Yiyin came from all directions and took the leader's head with a smile, thinking it was a request for credit.
As soon as the sun went down and it was not completely dark, the village returned to calm.
There are only ruined walls, embers of thatched cottages, corpses lying on the road, and men silently wiping tears in the corner of the village, silently announcing their sorrow to the world.
Although he had been in Yamato for two days, Yoshigan heard about the misery of the village from the intelligence. Seeing it with his own eyes this time, he felt a little unbearable for a while.
Since he came to this world, his status has never been low.
During the Owari Shiba guardianship, although the family was in embarrassment, they had a noble character and did not lack food and clothing.
Afterwards, the Sibo family was in decline, so he saved himself to survive, and suffered a little hardship and grievances.
However, with the help of the system, he managed to survive without any danger until now, and he has become a prince. He has never seen the miserable scene when these low-level villages were plundered.
When he saw that the face of his subordinate Ji Ji was normal, he understood that this was the real world. And he had been living too happily, so he could not see the heavy disasters that successive years of war had brought to people.
There is a saying that goes well, if heaven is sentimental, it will also grow old, and the right path in the world will be subject to vicissitudes of life.
When Yi Yin rarely saw the reality of the world and sighed, Dao Shengmeng and his family returned to the Dao family house not far away from him.
This time they did not go to the back, but to the front door. They saw that the wooden door was covered with traces of black charcoal sprayed by gunpowder, and there were dots of holes, which were so hideous that they shone with the light of fire.
Opening the door, there were servants and ashigaru corpses everywhere. There were also some servants lying naked in the corner, and they had made no sound.
No one thought of caring about the children's feelings. In this world, living means suffering. The sooner you understand the truth, the longer you can live.
Shima Shengmeng was in front, holding a sword on guard, while two old Ji warriors walked at the end, protecting the men and children in the middle.
Fearing that there were wild samurai hiding in the house, the group of people walked and walked for a while until they passed the atrium and reached the door close to the inner house.
Daosheng Meng's eyes turned red and he forced himself to push back his tears.
The second sister's body was still lying on the wooden door. Her hands were not loosened until she died, and she was holding the door bolt tightly and it was stuck.
There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was applauding himself for protecting his family.
But half of the wooden door was missing, and her sacrifice had no meaning at all.
After walking around, he saw that there was no threat at home. Shima Shengmeng ordered two old warriors to protect the children and ordered the men to tidy up the house.
The dead can close their eyes and be done with it, but the living still have to work hard to stay alive.
After telling all this, she inhaled hard and exhaled slowly, going back and forth several times before suppressing the sadness in her heart.
It's not the time to feel at ease yet. She doesn't know what the origin of the rescue force is. She still needs to be strong to face it, for the sake of her family and for the children left behind by her second sister.
Yiyin felt uncomfortable seeing the tragedy in the village and was unwilling to go further into it. But he didn't want to be weak on the outside, so he chose to sit down in a house at the head of the village to discuss the matter.
The group of people were sitting and resting when Baiji Santao came in from outside and bowed to Yiyin and said.
"Your Highness, twenty-seven of the wild warriors have been eliminated, twenty-six of them have been beheaded for meritorious service, and one of them is still alive for questioning.
Before the Zahe crowd could react, this group of people didn't know that we had arrived in Yamato.
A total of one hundred and fifty-six levels have been beheaded in the past two days, and these thousand wild warriors have killed almost one-sixth."
Yiyin nodded.
"Behead this person alive to record the merits, and the military merits will be recorded in the accounts of the Mahui people. They are ravaging the villages and showing no humanity. There is no need to keep any of this kind of scum."
The Ji warriors present looked at each other, wondering why Shiba was so angry.
Except for Yamanaka Yukimori who is still young, everyone else has long been accustomed to seeing this kind of scene.
Although the Ji warriors sitting here have some status and would not do such a shameful thing, they are all leaders in war and are well-informed.
What is a soldier? If you have military discipline, you are a soldier. If you don't have military discipline, you are a bandit.
When the Iga people were working as mercenaries, they often committed scandalous acts of massacre of villages.
The military has strict rules and regulations, and it is necessary to provide a channel for those at the bottom to vent their anger. Some things just turn a blind eye and pass.
The untouchables will not die. It is good to let the people vent their anger, which can improve morale and bring back more income to make life easier.
All the sixty-six countries are poor. When they are about to starve to death, who has not gone out to rob. If you win, you will live, if you lose, you will die. That's it.
Only Shiba Gozen, a wealthy and noble son, would make such a fuss, which is rare and strange.
But the noble master's methods were too ruthless. The Iga soldiers under his command could only make a few slanderous remarks, but in order to save their lives, they all expressed respect and cheers.
Yamanaka Yukimori is a young man, and he is a giri-type samurai warrior. His favorability level has never dropped since the initial max, simply because everything Yoshigage does is a model for the samurai family.
Nizi Shengjiu shook his head and wanted to give some advice. Thinking that this matter was indeed righteous, he stopped talking.
Although Bai Di San Taifu didn't agree in his heart, he still carried out the action.
Anyway, it was the Zahe people who died, not the Iga people, who cares. He asked someone to handle the matter, and then said.
"Your Highness, the warrior Ji we just rescued on the road has come to ask for an audience."
Yiyin nodded.
"Call in."
He hoped in his heart that this person was Shima Shengmeng, otherwise the system's mission would probably not be completed.
Most of the village was burned to death, and Warrior Ji probably only survived a few of them who had just escaped.
"Sheng Meng was on the lower island. I thank you for saving my life. If you dare to ask your name, I can repay you in the future."
Yiyin listened to her and thought the mission was ok, with a kind smile on his face.
Dao Shengmeng looks to be in her twenties. She is wearing a military uniform and looks tired, but it cannot hide her beauty.
Although Yukimori Yamanaka next to me is considered to be the most beautiful Samurai Hime I have ever seen in my life, he is still young and has not yet grown up.
But the one in front of me is a ripe fruit, sweet and delicious.
Yoshigan glanced at Yamanaka Yukimori, who was the first to meet him in the system and had a maximum favorability level, and he peeked back with a shy look on his face.
But this person, however, bowed his head in bitterness and hatred and remained silent.
I can't help but mutter in my heart, the difference in max effect is quite big.
