Susanoo's forces did not build any fortifications when they were stationed there.
He believed that with millions of civilians blocking the way, the soldiers of the Great Xia Dynasty would never be able to break through.
The scout cavalry he sent out returned and reported that the soldiers of the Great Xia King were still more than a day away from their destination.
Susanoo's soldiers set up their tents in the open ground.
This meant that people didn't need to cross the walls and fences at all.
These people rushed towards each other like a flood bursting its banks.
Although the people had no sharp weapons, their overwhelming rage was unstoppable.
"Kill them and take their weapons."
"After seizing the weapons, they continued to kill and set fires."
"Fellow villagers, you must not let these beasts get away with this."
"These bastards are so evil, kill them to avenge them."
Soon the people rushed into the military camp.
A fierce battle broke out between the two sides.
Although Susanoo's soldiers were all brave and skilled in battle.
Unfortunately, there were too many people.
The people fell to the ground in droves, but they quickly got up again.
Even injuries couldn't stop them from moving forward.
"Release the arrows..."
"These troublemakers are courting death, so let's just grant them their wish."
"Shoot them all, leave no one alive."
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Arrows pierced the night sky.
It left beautiful arcs in the air as it headed straight for these Japanese people.
Many civilians fell to the ground after being hit by arrows, yet they still surged towards the enemy camp from all directions like a tidal wave.
The mountains and fields were filled with people.
The entire night was filled with torches.
These well-fed and well-hydrated people were prepared to die.
They all wanted to at least break even or make a profit before they died.
Every direction of the military camp.
Large numbers of people fell to the ground, yet people continued to rush forward one after another.
They killed a group of soldiers in the camp, picked up their weapons, and continued their charge.
They fought from night until noon the next day.
The civilian population suffered heavy casualties.
These Japanese soldiers also suffered heavy losses.
Susanoo stepped out of the military camp tent, the air thick with the stench of blood and charred corpses.
The mountains and fields were filled with horrific scenes of devastation.
More than a dozen of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's and Oda Nobunaga's generals stood before Susanoo.
Susanoo wields the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi.
"What were the army's losses last night?"
"We lost 200,000 soldiers, but we killed as many as 700,000 to 800,000 civilians."
"Your Majesty, rest assured, those unruly people are nothing but a rabble. No matter how strong they are, they were still defeated by us." Amaterasu Riki said excitedly.
"We suffered nearly 200,000 casualties, yet we only managed to kill 700,000 to 800,000 troublemakers. How did we even fight this battle?" Susanoo roared.
"Your Majesty, those unruly people are acting as if they have no regard for their lives. We have never seen such unruly people before, that's how it is."
"Your Majesty, rest assured, if these unruly people dare to attack again, we will certainly kill them all." Toyotomi Hideyoshi patted his chest. "Your Majesty, I think that for the sake of our next meal, we should take the initiative. Those unruly people can no longer be our shields."
Oda Nobunaga: "Your Majesty, I have sent cavalry to scout ahead. Those unruly people took the food from the people of the Great Xia Dynasty, and they turned around and fought us to the death."
Susanoo: "These scoundrels deserve to die. I gave them food, but they turned around and bit me."
They're a bunch of ungrateful wretches.
"Toyotomi Hideyoshi, do as you say. You lead 100,000 troops to charge from the rear and give those unruly people no chance to live."
"Yes, sir..." Toyotomi Hideyoshi nodded repeatedly.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi mounted his horse, now eager to show off his skills to Susanoo.
"Warriors, follow me to deal with those unruly people. We'll rout them completely!"
Toyotomi Hideyoshi gripped his spear and mounted his horse.
The battle horns sounded once again.
The army of 100,000 followed Susanoo in preparation for the charge.
Just then, a deafening roar erupted once again.
To Susanoo and his companions' surprise, the very people who had just retreated charged forward again.
These people are completely different from the last time.
They had eaten and drunk their fill, and then took a lot of weapons with them.
Most of these weapons were stolen from Japanese samurai.
Jiang Tian then provided them with additional support.
Most of these weapons were crudely made.
But letting them kill each other is enough.
When Toyotomi Hideyoshi saw the people rushing towards him from all over the mountains, he immediately shouted loudly.
"Warriors of the Empire, His Majesty the Emperor is watching us."
"We need to let these troublemakers know that they will always be a bunch of rabble."
"The warriors drew their swords."
With Toyotomi Hideyoshi's order.
The 100,000-strong army drew their samurai swords.
"Charge! Kill them all!"
Toyotomi Hideyoshi roared and charged to the front of the group.
In his view, these starving people were like sheep, at the mercy of others.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh... whoosh whoosh whoosh...
A hail of arrows rained down on the people.
