Li Qing did not rush to attack the city, but stayed where he was.

He wanted to confirm that Hosokawa Katsuyuki was gone before making plans to attack the city.

Yamana Torataro is not in a hurry to attack. He is also making the same plan as Li Qing. As the situation develops now, the Hosokawa clan is still the strongest.

He also doesn’t want to make wedding clothes for others.

One day later, Saburo Inoue returned on horseback and said, "Master, the Hosokawa family is really gone. They moved very quickly, and they have almost walked a third of the way."

Li Qing felt relieved and said to the warriors: "Capture this city and you will have whatever you want!"

At present, he still has about 1,600 people, including 1,200 direct descendants and 400 newcomers.

There are about three thousand people of the Yamana clan in the city.

Compared with the previous battle, this gap is completely acceptable. Although he is the one attacking the city, the city here is just like that.

He can defeat the city alone, and he has already practiced this several times.

"Array up!"

"yes!"

The morale of the direct samurai was high, and the four hundred new samurai had no choice but to respond.

After a while, the array was neatly formed.

Li Qing said to Saburo Inoue: "As soon as the city is broken, rush in and kill them. Leave the people at the gate to me."

"Yes!" Saburo Inoue nodded.

Li Qing exhaled and stepped forward slowly.

Yamana Torataro had never seen Li Qing attack the city, but he had witnessed Li Qing's terror. He did not look down upon him for coming forward alone, and immediately shouted: "Fire the arrow!"

'Whoosh whoosh...'

'Ding ding ding...' Li Qing flashed around, and when he couldn't avoid it, he blocked it with his katana.

He walked faster and faster, and the recovered true energy in his body began to flow rapidly again, filling every inch of his meridians, and his whole body's energy and spirit climbed to an extremely high level.

By winning this battle, his strategic goal was almost achieved.

Li Qing started running, faster and faster, his speed was far faster than that of a wild horse. When he got close, he jumped suddenly, and the afterimages of several legs appeared on one leg, and he was slapped hard on the city gate. óΠъ.oяG

"Bang... clatter...!"

The city gate burst open, and behind the city gate, the stones piled up to support the gate collapsed.

The strength of this leg is truly terrifying.

Li Qing's right leg hurt slightly, but he didn't hesitate at all. After a whip kick, he added a few more kicks, and soon the door was wide open.

Yamana Torataro was dumbfounded. He had seen Li Qing's terror and knew that there was a high probability that he would not be able to defend the city and would eventually have to face him head-on.

But that was based on dragging down Li Qing to exhaustion and wiping out more than half of Li Qing's strength. He would never have imagined that the city would be broken upon.

"Kamito, really a god..." Hosokawa Toyohisa murmured to himself, forgetting to be afraid.

"kill!"

Saburo Inoue shouted, raising his katana to lead the charge.

Li Qing's amorous kick was so powerful that even the new warrior who had been half-hearted before was ignited with the belief that he would win.

One thousand six against three thousand, the advantage is yours!

Yamana Torataro panicked and yelled: "Stop them, stop him quickly..."

Before he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly blurred, and Li Qing jumped onto the top of the city.

How did he get up here?

The name of the mountain is Tiger Taro.

However, his reaction was really fast, and he made a decision almost as soon as Li Qing came up.

Jump off the city wall!

No one could be killed if he fell from this height. He fell so hard that stars appeared in his eyes, but he managed to save his life.

Regardless of the pain in his body, he immediately began to organize the warriors to fight.

Before Li Qing could pursue him, the swords of the warriors on the city slashed at him. He had no choice but to kill the people on the city first.

Compared with the outer city, the inner city is smaller, with only five to six hundred people, and it cannot be used.

Li Sin's open and close attacks are astonishingly lethal.

But he was not reluctant to fight. After creating a vacuum, he glanced at the location of Yamana Tora Taro, quickly jumped down from the top of the city, and continued to pursue him.

On the battlefield below the city, the total number of people on both sides was only a little over 4,000, and there was no cavalry, so they could capture the thieves and capture the king.

As soon as Li Qing landed, he shot out both palms. One person was the first to bear the brunt, and he immediately rose from the ground. With a strong wind, he flew wildly upside down like a kite with a broken string, hitting a large area.

Taking advantage of this gap, Li Qing stepped forward and continued to clear the field.

In half an hour, he was in front of Yamana Torataro.

"Ah You……"

Yamana Torataro was so frightened that his eyes popped open and the whites of his eyes were about to burst with blood.

He wanted to run, but this time, he couldn't.

Li Qing stood up from the ground and stepped directly on his shoulders, then put his feet together and rotated his body.

"Kachacha..."

Yamana Torataro's head was actually torn off by him.

Li Qing picked up the head and said with a melodious breath: "The mountain name Toro Taro is dead, and the one who surrenders will not be killed!"

As he spoke, the head was thrown high.

"Yamana Torataro is dead, Yamaname Torataro is dead..." Li Qing continued to output.

The clear voice was still clearly audible in the noisy battlefield. Not long after, someone fled secretly, and a trend soon formed.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the fighting stopped.

"Put down your weapons and let bygones be bygones."

"Put down your weapons and let bygones be bygones!!!"

More than a thousand Shicheng people had no time to run and were surrounded by Li Qing's warriors.

They had no choice but to obey and do as they were told.

After disarming these people, Li Qing let out a long sigh of relief. The fight was finally over.

At this time, Inoue Saburo grabbed Hosokawa Toyohisa and came over, "Master, what should I do with this grandson?"

"Okami, please forgive me, please forgive me..." Hosokawa Toyohisa knew the current situation and immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "Don't kill me, I am the second-in-command of the Hosokawa clan, I..."

"What do I need you for?"

"ah?"

"puff……"

Li Qing chopped off his head with one strike, and his head rolled on the ground...

Inoue Saburo felt happy, he was really afraid that the great god would keep this guy.

"Good kill, Master!"

Li Qing smiled tiredly and said: "Let's go into Shanming's mansion and tell the warriors first that they will be rewarded tomorrow based on their merits."

"yes!"



The next day, Li Qing discussed his merits and rewarded him.

Great reward!

Dozens of the most core and bravest warriors were directly promoted to first-level warriors. All direct descendants were promoted by a large margin, and the lowest was fifth-level warriors. As for those who died in battle...the pensions were even more terrifying.

Li Qing ordered Saburo Inoue to lead thousands of armed men and bring a large amount of gold and silver to distribute pensions. The more than 200 newly promoted warriors were jealous.

However, they soon stopped being jealous because they also received heavy rewards and promotions.

Although it was not as good as Li Qing's direct lineage, it was still several times stronger than before. What surprised them even more was that among the newcomers, hundreds of thousands of them who died in the battle also received generous pensions.

It is three times the pension of Yamana clan!

They were delighted, moved, and at the same time a little ashamed.

This great god treats them as his own, and he does what he says. He doesn't do one thing before the battle or another after the battle.

Only now do they understand why these people are so desperate.

This is not about working hard for a great god, this is about working hard for yourself!

Even if he dies, the pension can allow the family to have enough food and drink, and even... have enough food and clothing for a lifetime.

That pension is too heavy.

Li Qing was indeed willing to give up money, rewards and pensions, but he spent countless years of accumulation of the Yamana clan.

Fortunately, when Inoue Saburo came back, he brought back the money that Murakami Takumi had collected.

It can still hold up for a while, but it can only hold up for about half a year.

There is no way, although there are not many people, the salary of samurai after being promoted to senior samurai is too high.

Li Qing didn't panic, he had a 'grab' in his hand, there was nothing to panic about, he just had no money to take advantage of the big players.

In the past, I was afraid of overwhelming this group of people, but now there is no need to worry.

Li Qing's extremely high treatment soon spread in the city, and an endless stream of warriors came to join him. In just one month, his strength reached 5,000.

Three months later, it exceeded 8,000.

Li Qing stopped recruiting and was not in a hurry to start a war. Instead, he trained his troops all day long. In addition, he searched for money to improve the quality of his soldiers and the equipment of his warriors.

If you don't have money, you'll rob the big households. If you finish the big households in the city, you'll rob the big households outside the city.

He doesn't think about long-term development, he just wants to do something big, destroy the Muromachi shogunate, and destroy the Imperial family!



As the days passed, the Ming Dynasty's trade supply also increased significantly. Li Qing, who was clearly not short of supplies, spent a lot of money to buy like crazy.

While transporting gold and silver to the Ming Dynasty, they also had the intention of advertising.

If he bought a large amount of supplies from the Ming Dynasty and won the war, it would give people the impression that he won the battle because he bought supplies from the Ming Dynasty. Even if it is not an inevitable relationship, there is still a causal relationship, right?

Come to think of it, many people will follow suit.

Zhu Jianshen did not disappoint him. As time went by, Ming Dynasty's trade supply became larger and larger. Not only could Ming Dynasty eat all the money he stole, but it would not affect the supply of other famous names.

Mining fever gradually formed.

Farming is not as profitable as mining. With money, you can buy a large amount of grain, various livestock, silk and other hard currencies.

Li Qing's military expenditures were too large. Not only could he not save money for a medium-sized gold mine, and four medium-sized silver mines, he was also unable to make ends meet. He almost wiped out all the big households.

His money did not go to waste, it was all converted into armed force...

In the twelfth year of Chenghua, the twelfth lunar month.

Li Qing, who had been recuperating for more than half a year, finally took action.

The training for more than half a year has not only improved the personal qualities of these warriors, but the equipment is also amazing.

Eight hundred cavalry and two thousand warriors were wearing armor, nearly half of them were holding samurai swords, and the rest were also equipped with maces, spears and other killing weapons instead of hammers and pickaxes.

On this day, Li Qing gathered all the warriors to mobilize before the war.

"The goal of this battle is to overthrow the Muromachi shogunate. After the victory, all samurai will be promoted to two levels, and the rewards will be doubled!" Li Qing said solemnly: "The first-level samurai will be promoted to samurai commander, and he can command a hundred samurai!"

"We must win!" Li Qing raised his samurai sword.

"Must win!"

"Must win!!"

"Must win!!!"

The eight thousand warriors roared at the top of their lungs, their eyes were red, and they all dreamed of becoming famous.

Li Qing looked at these people with a smile on his lips and even more joy in his heart.

With such a large armed force, and the quality of individual soldiers, equipment, and morale, compared to other armed forces in Japan, they are all first-rate, and it is no problem to overthrow the Muromachi shogunate.

After overthrowing the Muromachi shogunate, the Imperial family became easier to deal with, but he alone was enough as a mascot.

It's about to end...
