Me and countless me.

Chapter 120: The Rout
The Japanese military discipline was very poor from the beginning, because the Japanese daimyo could not pay enough salary to these soldiers, and even rations for marching were difficult to prepare most of the time.

Moreover, most of the income of ancient soldiers came from robbery, so robbing villages in hostile territory was commonplace.

Women, food, and money can all be robbed at will. In many cases, the income from killing the enemy is not as much as that from robbery.

So naturally, every time a battle broke out, the rebels would gather together and plunder everywhere, or even become bandits, wandering around in various villages and daimyo's territories.

At this time, if there are enough young and strong people in the village, they can still resist a few, but...

Li Ke looked at the armor and battle hats on these soldiers, as well as the long spears with iron tips in their hands. It was obvious that before they were defeated, they were all elite soldiers under the daimyo.

Even if you kill a few more enemies, you may become a samurai.

Although the leading warrior's clothes were tattered, his armor was not seriously damaged, and the cross spear in his hand was still intact.

In other words, if a surprise attack is launched, there will really be casualties in Maple Village.

But just when Li Ke was hesitating whether to take action.

The warrior spoke.

"Don't kill anyone at first. Wait until they take out the things before killing them. Also, don't kill women casually. My family is short of maids. Besides, you are all so old now. It's time for you to start a family. As for the children..."

The warrior hesitated for a moment, then continued.

"Kill them all. After all, the food in a village is not enough to make up for the shortage. So we can just treat the dead as military rations."

His tone was quite calm, as if he was talking about something commonplace.

And in Japan's Warring States Period, it was not considered an excessive thing. As long as they didn't tell anyone, even if someone who had eaten human flesh found out, they would not say anything because of the sufficient military rations.

"Yes, my lord."

At this time, Li Ke no longer had any hesitation. These people were indeed beasts.

After looking at the positions of these people, Li Ke took a deep breath, weighed the six fist-sized stones he had originally used to hit rabbits in the shirt he used as a wrap, and picked up three smaller stones from the ground, then made his own preparations.

"It's just a way to repay a favor..."

Without wasting time, when the four soldiers and the warriors reached the most suitable angle, Li Ke attacked without hesitation!

The flying stone flew out like a cannonball and arrived in front of the warrior almost instantly. The warrior who was suddenly attacked wanted to dodge, but he only had time to turn his head away, and the stone hit his face.

His nose was suddenly squeezed in by the hard stone, and the huge stone hit his nose bridge hard. After a crisp breaking sound, the warrior screamed and fell directly to the ground.

The remaining four soldiers didn't understand what was happening. The next moment, another stone hit a soldier's head, hitting his temple. Blood splattered, and the fragile temple was instantly shattered. The soldier didn't even have time to scream before his body fell limply.

But Li Ke’s whereabouts were also exposed!

"over there!"

When several soldiers saw that Li Ke was shirtless and unarmed, they subconsciously raised their spears and stabbed Li Ke.

However, Li Ke did not dodge, but strode directly towards the three soldiers. When the fastest soldier rushed in front of him and stabbed his chest with the spear in his hand, Li Ke continued to attack, and raised his hand to throw another stone.

The moment the stone slipped out of his hand, Li Ke's hand also grabbed the opponent's spear.

Normally, the soldier would have stabbed down with all his strength, or pulled back his spear and cut off Li Ke's fingers.

But he didn't even see Li Ke holding the tip of his gun, because the moment he saw Li Ke throwing a stone at him, he subconsciously raised his hand to block and made a dodgy motion!
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Ke exerted force without hesitation, and his strong body leaped back. At the moment of dodging the spears of the other two soldiers, he also suddenly turned the spear in his hand!

"come over!"

Li Ke pulled violently, causing the soldier who was holding on tightly to subconsciously let go of his hand. Li Ke jumped back and landed on the ground, and immediately turned around. Both of his hands instantly grabbed the spear in his hands, and at the moment he finished turning around, the spear in his hand had already changed direction, and he stabbed it out violently!

There is no need to aim or test. Li Ke has already predicted what these people will do.

So, a soldier watched helplessly as a poisonous snake shot towards him, and by the time he reacted, his throat had been pierced!

There was no time wasted on the soldier whose throat was pierced, because another soldier's spear was already at his face.

Li Ke quickly dodged sideways and at the moment of avoiding the spear, he unbuttoned his shirt and threw the remaining stones in the shirt at the soldier. When the opponent dodged in panic, the shirt was suddenly wrapped around the opponent's spear, and then he pulled it down suddenly, knocking the opponent's spear head to the ground, and stepped on it with his foot, preventing the opponent from attacking again in a short time!

The soldier whose spear was stepped on paused for a moment, but Li Ke had already pulled out the spear that had pierced the soldier's hand before. With just a slight pull and stab, the soldier who had just raised his head had a foreign object in his mouth.

His throat was also pierced.

At this time, the warrior who was knocked down at the beginning struggled to get up. He looked at Li Ke, Li Ke, and swung the spear in his hand without hesitation and stabbed towards Li Ke.

"Ahhh!!!"

His howl hardly sounded like a human cry, and when Li Ke pulled out the spear in his hand, he found that the spear tip had broken off at some point.

So he simply swung the stick in his hand and hit the warrior's hand with the spear without a spearhead.

The warrior felt pain, but did not drop the gun in his hand. However, he was a beat too slow and was dodged by Li Ke. Li Ke also retreated at this time, and at the same time, he suddenly pulled back his stick, and then stabbed it out again like a poisonous snake, stabbing the warrior hard on the chin!
