Going down the Chikuma River for about tens of miles, we passed several small towns on the way, and Kawanaka Island, the famous place of war in Shinano Province, came into view.
Kawanaka Island is surrounded by mountains and a large lake. The terrain is extremely complex.
Asahiyama Castle at the foot of Mount Iizuna, as a mountain castle built on the most famous mountains in Shinano Province, has extremely strong defenses and is firmly stuck on the road to Shimazu Castle for the troops present. It is an extremely solid fortress. nail.
In the Iizuna Mountains, a rather winding path has become quite wide after being opened by the army, enough to accommodate four people walking together.
On this road, a winding army that stretches for more than ten miles is slowly moving forward. Flags cover the sky, and the long blue dragon cannot be seen at the edge.
"Hurry up and hurry up. Asahiyama Castle is ahead. After taking it, you can rest as much as you want."
Riding on a short Japanese horse, Tomita Yoshinari shouted to the soldiers beside him.
After hearing the order from their commander, the soldiers who had looked tired on their faces suddenly became energetic. Their eyes were filled with anticipation again, and infinite power seemed to surge out of their bodies. Their paces suddenly accelerated a bit, and they quickly Rush towards the faintly visible small town ahead.
Ever since he won the victory in the previous battle of Iiyama Castle, Tomita Yoshinari could be said to have been extremely comfortable in the past few days, with smiles often appearing on his originally serious face.
Since the victory of the battle, the main force of the entire Shinano Kingdom has been defeated by him, and most of the effective forces have been annihilated. This has resulted in a great lack of defensive resistance in the Shinano Kingdom.
So when the remaining soldiers of Shinano Kingdom retreated, the entire northern region of Shinano Kingdom opened its arms to him.
Now, because Zhong Yu's orders are there, there is no need to take into account the reputation of the army or the maintenance of the place.
Therefore, Tomita Yoshinari directly ordered his soldiers to plunder the wealthy people in the northern region. The journey was paved with bones.
Of course, these are the corpses of local compatriots.
Because too many people died in previous battles, in order to restore morale and ensure sufficient combat effectiveness of his army.
Tomita Yoshinari issued an order not to seal the sword all the way.
Now, those soldiers who were originally bound by military discipline could be said to have a big carnival holiday.
In the past, Princess Ji Jun, a well-known rich man who was beyond their reach, will be abused by untouchables like them who originally looked down upon after becoming a loser.
Every time they see these high-ranking figures wailing and crying under their respective crotches, these soldiers feel a strange pleasure in their hearts, and their desire to conquer has never been so strong.
Even anyone in the occupied area can be killed at will by these soldiers as long as they don't like it, and no one will hold them accountable. The family of the person who was killed even has to apologize. This is more than the superior samurai in the past. Big power.
There is also plenty of rice, just for the wonderful salted radishes, and the most delicious fish in the world, which they are rarely able to enjoy after joining the army in the dojo.
But now, as long as they ask for it from the civilian tycoons in their occupied areas, no one dares to refuse. Even if they don't have it, they will try their best to find it for themselves.
This kind of life really made these soldiers feel elated, and they suddenly felt that their dignity was infinitely higher. The inferiority complex they originally felt due to being untouchables for a long time also suddenly increased.
Therefore, what these soldiers did in the occupied areas, such as playing with women, extorting property, and setting houses on fire, were all considered minor, and those soldiers were relatively merciful.
There are truly some perverts who take pleasure in torturing and killing captives, casually using every living life as their entertainment.
One of the most common games played by these soldiers is gourd skewering. As the name suggests, children under the age of five are thrown up, and then a spear is inserted into their heads from their mouths and bursts out from the back of their heads. Such a These soldiers were fascinated by the strings one after another.
Another option is raw lamb slices.
Many people know that Japanese people like to eat sashimi and so on, so they also talk about this hobby taking the lead in other creatures.
Since ancient times, people have been called two-legged sheep. The raw sheep slices are made by washing a living person, numbing them with anesthetics or simply knocking them unconscious and putting them on a big table. Then a group of soldiers use them. Enjoy divided with knife and fork.
The reason for this habit is that eating human flesh is of great help to the skills they practice.
Every time they eat more meat, the essence, blood and evil spirit and resentment contained in it can boost their cultivation and greatly enhance the power of their internal strength.
Among them, raw meat is the best, as it has not been damaged in any way. It contains the richest menstrual blood resentment and the most powerful effect.
This was planned by Zhong Yu before doing the exercises under the bed.
He came to this world mainly to restore his strength, and in order to recover quickly, he chose killing as an effective method.
That's why Zhong Yu had just issued an order to completely eradicate the powerful people. He wanted to force these powerful people to use their influence in various places to mobilize enough manpower to fight against him.
The more people there are, the more people will die, and the more luck points will be harvested.
Now is no exception. Turning all the soldiers under his command into man-eating demons can not only quickly increase their murderous aura, but also sharpen their character.
It can also cultivate their habit of eating people. When the time comes, they will no longer enjoy human flesh. For the sake of their own belly, they will take the initiative to find people to kill without Zhong Yu's orders.
This is another excellent way to harvest luck points.
The army walking on the mountain road is still moving forward, but the speed is indeed a bit faster than before. After all, there is temptation, and these soldiers are much more motivated.
Many soldiers are even thinking about how to treat the villagers there when they arrive at Asahiyama Castle.
"Well, it is necessary to present beautiful women, and I hope they will keep the bed warm at night. There are also a few bowls of fragrant rice, and it is best to add some salty radish."
These soldiers thought so in their hearts.
At the same time, on the mountain ridge where the army was walking, where countless waves of scouts had been sent out to explore, several black shadows suddenly appeared, surrounded by countless black mist.
Each of these black figures stared at the advancing army below, their eyes were dark, and there was a trace of murderous intent flickering in the depths, but they did not attack immediately. Instead, they looked at the leader of them. people.
This man was also a black shadow, his whole body covered in black mist, and his figure was completely hidden in the forest that blocked the sunlight.
