"Want money?" Susanoo didn't expect that his opponent would ask for money before he had even accomplished anything.
"It's not that we can't have money, but you have to help us take Kyoto first before we can talk about money. Otherwise, you're just asking for death."
Before Susanoo could finish speaking, he drew the Kusanagi sword with a whoosh: "I don't want to waste words with you people from the Central Plains. Either you serve me, or you die."
Did you see those big pots in the military camp where human flesh was being cooked?
"If you don't obey my orders, I'll boil you in that big pot."
Murong Canglong is now filled with remorse.
If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have come to Japan in the first place.
He's now deeply mired in this mess and can't get out.
"Alright, your cavalry will stay close to our ranks. If you have even the slightest disloyalty, you'll lose your heads."
...
Susanoo's million-strong army sets off.
The millions of people they had driven away marched ahead in a grand procession.
With these millions of civilians as a shield, Susanoo and his group felt much more at ease.
"Pass down the order to make those people hurry up. Those damned idiots, they only walk a few dozen miles a day."
“Tell them that if they keep dawdling like this, everyone will die.”
"Hi..."
Although these people ate a little something, it was of little use to them.
These people, supporting the elderly and carrying children, walked at the head of the procession, stretching for dozens of miles.
Everywhere you look, you hear the cries of the people.
Susanoo's soldiers were all notorious for their evil deeds.
Many soldiers rushed into the crowd of civilians.
Any pretty girl they spotted could not escape the clutches of these soldiers.
Anyone who dares to resist will be beaten up at best, and killed at worst.
For ordinary people, this journey was like living in the apocalypse.
These people were filled with regret.
They came from afar to seek refuge with Susanoo.
As it turned out, Susanoo really didn't treat them as human beings at all.
Susanoo provided these people with a pitifully small amount of food, barely enough to keep them alive.
Five days later.
The two sides are getting closer and closer.
...
Jiang Tian's convoy is making steady progress.
Several fast horses charged over.
The scout cavalrymen dismounted and charged towards Jiang Tian and Han Xin.
"Reporting to the lord, reporting to the commander."
"The enemy is less than a day's journey away from us."
"Susanoo made more than 5 million people walk at the front of the procession."
"This guy is trying to use ordinary people as a shield."
Jiang Tian laughed when he heard that.
Susanoo is a figure from Japanese mythology, but his battle philosophy is no different from that of the bandits of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Jiang Tian faced Zhang Shicheng's team for the first time.
Zhang Shicheng then had the common people walk at the front of the procession.
This is of no benefit to the two armies in battle.
Jiang Tian's car slowly pulled up to the side of the road.
"You cavalrymen, give a detailed account of what you've scouted."
“We discovered that the enemy’s people were everywhere, covering the mountains and plains, but they were marching at an extremely slow pace.”
"Among the Japanese troops, there are also Xianbei cavalry. However, this time we found that the number of Xianbei cavalry is significantly less, only a little over ten thousand."
Jiang Tian nodded: "How many of Susanoo's subordinates have come? Is it really true, as the rumors say, that this guy has a million-strong army?"
The cavalrymen all nodded repeatedly.
"Our lord's million-strong army is indeed well-deserved; in our view, it is no less than that."
"Their marching column stretched for hundreds of miles, with no end in sight."
"Han Xin, I'm entrusting this battle to you. How do you plan to deal with him?" Jiang Tian glanced at Han Xin.
Han Xin: "My lord, this time we intend to annihilate the entire Japanese people."
“Since their people are leading the way and covering the entire mountainside, we can simply give them some food and get them to turn their guns on Susanoo’s army.”
"Regardless of who wins the fight, it's a good thing for us."
"We can reduce their military strength to its weakest point."
"At that time, the entire army will rush out and surround and annihilate the enemy."
Jiang Tian nodded: "Since the enemy is only a day's journey away, the team we send out to surround them can set off."
Han Xin waved the command flag in his hand.
Xiang Yu, Li Cunxiao, Li Yuanba, and Zhang Dingbian all rushed over.
What Jiang Tian didn't expect was...
Lan Fenghuang led more than 4,000 cavalrymen from southern Xinjiang to arrive as well.
In addition, the Xiongnu Chanyu and Princess Hanxiang, leading 70,000 Xiongnu cavalry, have also arrived.
The group sat on the ground.
Han Xin took a twig and started drawing on the ground.
"Gentlemen, the situation on the battlefield is clear at a glance."
"Susanoo is brave and fierce, but lacks strategy. His ability to lead troops into battle is really not impressive."
Han Xin was indeed a man of skill; he was able to draw the positions of both sides on the ground based on just a few words from the scout cavalryman.
Moreover, this diagram is simple and easy to understand.
Even a girl like Lan Fenghuang, who had never read a book and knew very few characters, could understand it.
"Great Chanyu, your Xiongnu cavalry, utilizing your high mobility, will advance eastward for five days and then outflank them from the rear."
You are not needed to fight this battle.
But I want you to go and destroy their Ezo Island.
"Great Chanyu, remember, I want land, not people." Jiang Tian added, "Kill them all, leave no one alive."
