Me and countless me.

Chapter 346 The End of Dragon and Tiger
Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin rushed out of the tent and looked in the direction of the sound, and then they saw a scene that they would never forget in their entire lives!

Teams of armored warriors charged forward like a torrent, each of them with a ruthless iron mask on their face, and their leader was an iron tower nearly four meters tall, holding a huge spear.

Anything that stands in his way will be knocked away by the iron spear in his hand!

No matter whether it was barricades, sandbags, soldiers, or warriors, they could not stop it for even a second! The arrows shot by the hastily prepared warriors hit the armor that barely looked like something a human could wear, and were directly ricocheted away, having no effect at all.

And just when the two people were stunned, a samurai rushed out of the tent. The moment he saw Li Ke's flag, his eyes turned red. Then he drew out his samurai sword and rushed towards the iron tower!
"Ahhh!! I'm going to kill you!!!"

Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin both knew that several of their sons had died at the hands of this Mingguishen, so they lost their composure. But it was of no use. The first moment they faced the charging Mingguishen, their heads were whipped into a bloody mist by the iron spear that was so fast that they could not look directly at it, and the opponent's body was directly knocked away by the tall horse and then stepped on!

Takeda Shingen was completely stunned, but Uesugi Kenshin reacted at the critical moment and spoke without hesitation!

"Everyone hold the line! Those who hold the line will be rewarded with 100 gold!"

As a poor dragon of Echigo, a reward of 100 gold was already unprecedentedly generous. Of course, this 100 gold was definitely not 100 kilograms of gold, but 100 gold coins.

There will naturally be brave men when there is a huge reward. Countless people rushed towards Li Ke, but after seeing the devil-like figure, their morale began to collapse!

Li Ke waved his spear, not paying any attention to the warriors who had not yet reacted to what was happening.

The moment Fuma Kotaro told him the meeting place of Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin, Li Ke decided to launch a surprise attack.

Indeed, the place chosen by both sides was actually very safe, because it was two or three cities away from his city. Any strategist with a normal mind would not risk a surprise attack, especially in Japan.

Because there were no good horses in Japan, and there were not even many samurai who could get enough food, there was no need to consider proper armored cavalry!

In this case, a cavalry attack would be a death wish. As long as the people in those cities sent a few soldiers, the attacking party would be in trouble. In this era when it was impossible to have roads in the wild, being guarded by the main roads was basically equivalent to being blocked.

Because other places are either high mountains or dense forests, small-scale marches are okay, but marching with horses is just a dream.

Therefore, not only in Japan, but in many cases, cavalry raids on rear cities are unrealistic.

However, this is not a problem for Li Ke. If there is a blocked level, he can just break through it!
As for why he could afford to maintain cavalry, the reason was even simpler. Although Japan's resources were poor, it was not to the point where there was nothing. The reason why most people could not eat enough was also very simple, that is, Japanese farmers not only had an exploiter and oppressor!
The samurai were the biggest players, but temples and Shintoism were not much better. In particular, the monks of various temples were basically standard configurations, and even wealthy temples were able to launch Ikko Ikki - that is, rebellion.

Li Ke directly destroyed those temples in his territory that could not exorcise demons and did not obey his rule, and recruited monks and exorcists who could exorcise demons. In addition, he recruited a lot of monsters to solve the problem of evil monsters. Naturally, his income was much more than that of most daimyo.

So he had horses with the blood of demon horses, enough money to improve the physical fitness of his subordinates, and enough light armor.

There is no way. Although the food has been improved, these useless guys are still dreaming of becoming heavy cavalry.

You have to know that not everyone could be a heavy cavalryman in ancient times. Soldiers who could be heavy cavalrymen in ancient times could guard and escort the Dongfeng brand green logs on the parade ground in modern times.

But even so, Li Ke's cavalry team is basically all warriors! There are basically no farmers! And even such a poor cavalry team, in Japan -

Invincible!

Li Ke was at the front, piercing through all the obstacles like a sharp arrow. Even if there were musketeers attacking, the poor muskets of this era could not penetrate his armor! While they were reloading in panic, Li Ke rushed in front of them with his own guns!
Screams rang out one after another, and Kenshin Uesugi was already planning to run away!
"Lord Shingen! What are you thinking of if you don't leave now?"

The Dragon of Echigo had no intention of staying to resist, because this was all a joke. He saw very clearly that the best option was to leave a bunch of people to die, and then he and others would throw away their weapons and armor, abandoning everything that could identify them and escape!

but--

"It's impossible, Lord Kenshin, it's impossible, because this is the real Fenglinhuoshan..."

Fenglinhuoshan, these are things he has believed in all his life, but it was not until this time that he truly understood what cavalry was.

That was simply not something that his cavalry, who would dismount upon arrival and engage in close combat, could contend with. Man and horse were one, attacking at a speed that surpassed that of the messenger, burning all the enemies in sight like flames, sweeping across the land like a hurricane!
Then they quickly retreated and hid in the mountains and forests. This is the real Fenglinhuoshan!

This is the cavalry that I should have!

Takeda Shingen's eyes turned red, he was extremely eager and jealous of such cavalry, but he knew he couldn't do it, because he couldn't be like Li Ke, who had the final say in the entire territory and could kill whomever he wanted without worrying about rebellion!

You can use all your wealth to do real things, without having to guard the gold mountain like me, but you can't use all the money on military and development!
He was filled with rage and jealousy, but he also realized one thing more clearly than Uesugi Kenshin.

"Lord Kenshin, don't you understand that this is our last chance to defeat him?"

Kenshin Uesugi was stunned, and he immediately realized the fact that Li Ke, who was able to own such a terrifying team, must be much richer than himself and others. Moreover, Li Ke has never been known for his wealth, but for the discipline and fearlessness of the grassroots soldiers.

Coupled with the other party's monstrous military force, they were forced to form an alliance.

Aren't they trying to assassinate Li Ke because they can't defeat him head-on? !
And now Li Ke actually risked his life to come to the middle of their two territories, and brought only a few dozen warriors! This was when he, Li Ke, was at his weakest!
The Echigo Dragon's eyes turned red! "That's right! Go! Everyone! Quickly report to the others, send reinforcements, and tell them this is our only chance in this lifetime!"

Uesugi Kenshin roared in anger and drew out the katana beside him, because in just a short while, Li Ke was almost in front of them and it was too late to grab the spear!
The reason why he fought so hard was very simple—

It is true that Li Ke would recruit warriors, but when he encountered a leader of a faction, he would usually kill the entire family!
His subordinates can surrender, hand over their own territories, and go to Li Ke's command to receive wages and live, but he and Takeda Shingen will really have their entire families killed!
"For the glory of the Takeda family!"

Takeda Shingen also roared and drew out his samurai sword, but at this moment, those originally loyal warriors cleverly moved away, as if they were going to meet the rushing Li Ke and others!
Although the two men noticed this, they knew they would not think about it at the moment, and they were not without loyal warriors around them. Those warriors waved their spears and rushed towards Li Ke recklessly, wanting to stab Li Ke's horse to death!

Therefore, the two people looked at Li Ke and yelled as if they were venting their anger!
"Ahh!! Fuuinzan!"

"In the name of Bishamonten! Die! Mingguishen!"

The two people spoke words that represented their identities, and at this moment, Li Ke finally locked down the identities of these two people.

So he rushed forward quickly, and the spear in his hand made a violent sound as he swung it, and then exploded violently in the air in front of everyone's stunned gaze!

The moment he saw the spear explode, Takeda Shingen spoke excitedly.

"Great! We have a chance of winning..."

However, before Takeda Shingen could finish his words, the fragments from the broken iron spear arrived at this moment!

The sharp fragments pierced his body directly, and then he heard a loud bang. He opened his eyes wide, trying to figure out what was going on, why the explosion occurred only after Li Ke waved his arms, and why he suddenly couldn't speak!

But he saw from the corner of his eye that the head of Uesugi Kenshin beside him had disappeared, leaving only half of his tongue on his body. The moment he realized this, he finally saw blood gushing out of his neck.

He wanted to reach out to touch it, but his body fell backwards uncontrollably. When countless blood continued to spurt out from his neck, Takeda Shingen finally realized what was happening to him.

"Ah, it turns out that the broken spear has pierced my neck."

After realizing this, Takeda Shingen's eyes began to quickly lose their luster. The world-famous Tiger of Kai and the Dragon of Echigo died completely at this moment!

This was something that had never happened in the entire history of the Warring States Period. The leaders of two major forces were all killed by a third-party force in a surprise attack!
All the warriors behind Li Ke couldn't help but let out excited noises, and the soldiers on both sides, who had not realized how many casualties Li Ke and his men had caused before, finally understood at this moment how serious the matter was, so they fled in fear!
"Lord Takeda Shingen is dead! Lord Takeda Shingen is dead! Run!!"

In Takeda Shingen's camp, the soldiers who saw what was happening yelled at their fellow countrymen who didn't know what was happening, and wanted to escape together. Such things were not uncommon in Uesugi Kenshin's camp.

At this time, Li Ke also began to slow down the forward's speed and raised his hand.

The next moment after he raised his hand, the eyes of everyone behind him lit up, because this meant that everyone no longer had to follow him and could move and plunder freely!

The already extremely loose formation began to disintegrate instantly, with some people even being knocked down by their own people.

Li Ke was not surprised by this. A mass charge of cavalry required a lot of training. Although horses with monster blood were much smarter, they were not so easy to train.

But this is enough.

The warriors rode their horses and killed the deserters, while Tiandao Zaoxing began to collect the spoils with his men, especially the keepsakes of Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin, which he quickly found and brought to Li Ke.

"My Lord! Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin have been killed by your own hands!"

Tiandao Zaoxing couldn't help but get excited, because this meant that for a long time, the Takeda family and the Uesugi family would shrink their forces, and the following siege would be much simpler. Before these two families decided on a new head of the family, there was no need to worry about reinforcements!

If there are only local daimyo, they can easily solve the problem with the artillery made by Li Ke!
It can be said that the entire power of the Uesugi family and the Takeda family is doomed to perish after this incident!
"Well, I'll leave it to you from now on, Zaoxing. I hope to finish my meal in the new city."

Li Ke spoke casually, without any excitement of beheading a celebrity.

After all, Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin are really weak in this world where supernatural powers exist.

However, looking at the white lotus mark on the dead Uesugi Kenshin's body, Li Ke was a little surprised, because he seemed to sense some subtle aura.

"Why is this aura so similar to that of Li Ke from Journey to the West and the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King from Li Ke's side in Wang Mang?"

Touching his chin, Li Ke looked at the body of Uesugi Kenshin who had shouted Bishamonten before, and suddenly thought of something.

"Are the hells of Japan and China the same system? After all, if Li Jing's presence is there, it means that Buddhism is also involved. If they are all the same contractor..."

Li Ke trembled subconsciously.
