Hosokawa Toyohisa and the Yamana warriors rushed past without any obstruction, and easily got behind Li Qing's warriors.
But Li Qing didn't take it seriously, treating it as nothing, and personally led four thousand armed forces to kill the main force of the Hosokawa clan.
"What is his plan..."
Hosokawa Toyohisa murmured to himself. He really didn't understand why Li Qing did this, but it didn't matter. At this time, the opponent's entire back was exposed to his eyes. As long as he attacked in the opposite direction, the overall situation would be decided.
"This is really a stupid move!"
Hosokawa Toyohisa grinned and said to Yamana Torataro: "Your Excellency Torataro, this opportunity cannot be missed. It will never come again. Let's do it quickly, shall we?"
Yamana Torataro stared closely at the fighting battlefield, his eyes flickering.
He didn't expect that Li Qing would have such a fighting style, and he didn't expect that Li Qing would be so well-armed.
Of course he could see that more than half of these warriors were subordinates of the Yamana clan. What surprised him was that the opponent was able to use it to his own advantage in such a short period of time and was so cohesive that he faced a force difference that was more than twice as high. , and still not collapse.
"Sir Torataro, Torataro..." Hosokawa Toyohisa called several times in succession, but there was no response. The other party didn't even look at him. Hosokawa Toyohisa was a little annoyed, "Yamana Torotaro!"
Yamana Torataro came back to his senses and glanced at him lightly, "What's the matter, Your Excellency?"
"Do it quickly!" Hosokawa Toyohisa urged.
"Not urgent."
"?"
Hosokawa Toyohisa faintly noticed something was wrong and said in a deep voice: "What do you mean?"
What's the meaning? You fucking think I'm a fool, right? After destroying them, I will be the next unlucky person, and you want me to be used as cannon fodder... Yamana Torataro secretly sneered.
But he said: "Wait a little longer."
"What are you waiting for?"
"I don't know what to wait for, I just want to wait a little longer." Yamana Torataro said calmly, not even bothering to pretend.
He is not very weak now. ωＷω.ＧoＮЬ.οrＧ
Li Qing had four thousand on his side, he had more than three thousand, and the Hosokawa clan only had nine thousand.
7000+vs9000
It’s not a bad idea to fight!
Moreover, Li Qing's warriors are so powerful that they can make up for the difference in numbers.
Of course, Yamana Torataro had no intention of joining forces with Li Qing. He was also afraid that if he really defeated the Hosokawa clan, Li Qing would attack him in turn.
For him, the best way to deal with it is to do nothing, recharge his batteries, and wait for both parties to consume them.
His little calculation was very loud, and Hosokawa Toyohisa could hear it clearly.
"Please clarify the situation, please. The current Yamana clan is no longer qualified to be on an equal footing with the Hosokawa clan." Toyohisa Hosokawa said angrily, "The terms offered by me, the Hosokawa clan, are generous enough. Don't be stubborn. "
"Haha." Yamana Torataro said sarcastically: "You really treat people as fools. You, the Hosokawa family, have already paid for your old man, and you will give this big city to me?"
Hosokawa Toyohisa became angry in embarrassment: "Are you going to take action or not?"
"What's wrong?"
"you……"
Hosokawa Toyohisa really didn't dare to do anything, and he couldn't do anything. He alone could turn the world upside down.
"It's up to you." Hosokawa Toyohisa said the next harsh words, turned his horse's head and wanted to go back.
As soon as he made a move, the sharp samurai sword was placed across his neck.
"Want to leave?" Yamana Torataro smiled coldly, "How can I let you, the second-in-command of the Yamana family, let you go?"
"You...you dare?"
"I have tolerated you for a long time." Yamana Torataro said ferociously: "You really think I will ignore the past grudges? Ha, what a joke!"
"Tied!" Yamana Torataro waved his hand and glanced at the battlefield in the distance. The two sides were already charging together and said immediately: "Let's go into the city!"
He patted Hosokawa Toyohisa's face and said mockingly: "There is an old saying among the Han people: when snipe and clam fight, the fisherman wins. It seems that I am the fisherman? Ah~ haha..."
"Don't be proud..."
"Snapped!"
Yamana Torataro slapped him with a big mouth, and stars popped up in Hosokawa Toyohisa's eyes. Immediately, his nosebleed profusely, and he could no longer say harsh words.

Finally left...
Li Qing glanced at the Yamana clan's armed forces marching toward the inner city, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Next, you can fight without any distractions.
Four thousand versus nine thousand, and two thousand of them are still newcomers. To be honest, with this head-on fighting method, there is basically no hope of winning, but it can hurt the opponent.
The two thousand new warriors were not reliable. A quarter of an hour after the battle started, they became timid. However, the battlefield was completely spread out and there was no formation at all. They wanted to run away, but it was not that easy.
There is always a truth on the battlefield: the more afraid of death, the faster you will die!
That's the situation right now.
Li Qing's two thousand direct samurai were all brave and fought to the death. They twisted into a rope and marched forward bravely. Although the Hosokawa clan had many samurai, they were more willing to pinch the soft persimmons.
They are all enemies, and killing anyone is a meritorious service, so why can't you find happiness for yourself?
As a result, they attacked the newcomers one after another, and the new armed forces suffered heavy losses.
The direct lineage was relatively smaller. However, in such a scene of a battle involving more than ten thousand people, the losses were still considerable. In just two quarters of an hour, hundreds of people were lost.
The losses suffered by the Hosokawa clan were not small. They had many people, but Li Qing's direct line of armed forces was too powerful.
Li Qing, in particular, was as fierce as a god of death.
Facing him head on, no one can stand together!
Li Qing wanted to capture the thief and capture the king, but there were too many people, and his cavalry squad was continuously damaged, so he could not form a strong and effective collision.
On the other hand, the opponent's five hundred cavalry caused great trouble to his armed forces. Li Qing must always pay attention to this armed force to prevent the direct warriors from being divided.
Fortunately, he was strong enough, and the Hosokawa clan... or the Japanese samurai were not good at using cavalry, but they did not cause fatal damage to Li Qing's weapons.
The battle between the two sides was fierce. It looked like four thousand versus nine thousand, but in fact it was two thousand versus seven thousand. The two thousand newcomers struggled against the two thousand Hosokawa clan warriors, and the pressure was almost always on the direct lineage.
After another quarter of an hour, there were only about 1,500 direct-line armed forces left, and no more than 1,000 newcomers were left.
Hosokawa also lost nearly 2,000 people.
Seeing this situation, Li Qing had no choice but to retreat tactically.
Hosokawa Katsuyuki didn't chase him. It wasn't because he couldn't chase him, but because he was hurt from being killed by Li Qing.
After being damaged several times, his 12,000 armed forces now only have more than 7,000 left. The things Hosokawa Toyohisa previously looted have basically been consumed. The city has not yet been captured. It can be said that it has been defeated. Now Hosokawa has not received any actual benefits.
Li Qing's personal bravery and the dual pressure of four thousand armed forces, coupled with the temporary defection of more than three thousand mountain name armed forces, completely disrupted Hosokawa Katsuyuki's plan.
He originally thought that his nearly 13,000 armed forces were more than enough to deal with Li Qingqian, but he didn't expect that this would be the result.
"The abominable Torataro Yamana betrayed me, and the stupid Toyohisa Hosokawa gave me false information..." Hosokawa Katsuki yelled angrily: "Damn it, you have hurt me!"
Hosokawa Katsuichi was riding a tiger and was unable to get off. This situation was beyond his expectation.
Now he still has more than 7,000 people. On the surface, he still has a good chance of winning, but if Li Qing and the Yamana clan join forces, he may not be sure of victory, and even if he wins, it will be a miserable victory.
What's even worse is that he came with all his strength and emptied out all the family's wealth. Now the house is so empty that one or two thousand warriors can occupy it.
It’s so easy to have your home robbed!
Therefore, he must make a quick decision.
But now, there is no hope of a quick victory. Li Qing's bone is too difficult to crack, so Yamana Torataro went to the inner city to defend the city.
Various circumstances indicate that it cannot be taken down in a short period of time.
Delay too long and your home is at risk of being stolen.
But he was really unwilling to do so.
After catching up with nearly five thousand warriors, how could we get nothing?
Hosokawa Katsuyuki weighed it for a long time, gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Enter the inner city, capture this city, everyone will be rewarded heavily!"
Li Qing is also weighing it.
He understood that as long as he quickly attacked the Hosokawa family's lair, he would be able to successfully capture it without even having to pay casualties.
But in that case, they would still have to face the Hosokawa clan's counterattack, and as soon as he left, the Yamana clan would probably give up resistance or even surrender at Kaicheng.
As a result, the strength of the Hosokawa clan has increased instead of declining, and he is still guarding Hosokawa's hometown...
We can't leave anymore, so we can fight here and consume the opponent's vitality. Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Sanlang, you lead the cavalry team to see their movements."
"yes."
Two-quarters of an hour later, Inoue Saburo came back, dismounted from his horse and said, "Master, they are going to the inner city."
"Well..." Li Qing nodded: "Let the warriors rest and take action again at night."
"yes."
As the news continued to be conveyed, the direct samurai said nothing, but the new samurai could not bear it any longer.
Are you still taking action?
Isn't this courting death?
When they retreated before, they had no choice. If they didn't retreat with the great god, they could only become dead souls under the sword. However, after they retreated, they couldn't run away, and they were all looked at with death.
Now that they heard that they had to fight desperately again, they were ready to die.
However, the weak do not have the right to choose.
night.
Li Qing took action again, with 1,500 direct descendants, 800 newcomers, and a total of 2,300 warriors approaching the Hosokawa clan again.
When they arrived at the gates of the inner city, the Hosokawa clan and the Yamana clan had already started fighting with full firepower, and one of them resisted to the death.
A smile appeared at the corner of Li Qing's mouth, and he uttered a cold word: "Kill!"
When the war resumed, the Hosokawa clan was attacked from both sides and unable to exert its full combat power, and suffered a lot.
Hosokawa Shengzhi was angry and helpless. He couldn't enter the city with the front attack, and couldn't take Li Qing from behind. He was in a dilemma.
"You great god, I will fight with you!"
Two quarters of an hour later.
"Yamaname Torataro, I will fight with you."
Half an hour later.
"The Han people bullied me too much..."
An hour later.
"No more fighting, retreat quickly..."
Hosokawa Katsuyuki did not dare to fight. In one hour, he lost more than 1,300 men, and now only 6,000 were left armed.
If we keep fighting, so what if we really win?
It's hard to defend even if you defeat it. Even if you can defend it, do you still want your home?
Go back, must go back.
Hosokawa Toyohisa in the city was stunned when he saw his boss operating.
No, don't leave!
I'm still in the city, I haven't caught up yet...
