In the ruined camp of the Otomo family on the north bank of the Outomo family on Kyushu, the Outomo family coalition forces, Masara quickly arranged the next strategy for each team.

Since each team suffered varying degrees of military damage in the battle last night, Zhengliang directly assigned the peasant soldiers and standing football teams in his middle formation to the other three armies, and some deputy generals were also sent out to help.

At this time, Zhengliang encountered a problem, that is, the problem of disposing of those prisoners. Just from the scale of the prisoners, the number of prisoners captured this time was twice the power of the Luo family army at this time, that is, there were at least 10,000 people. How to deal with these prisoners suddenly became a problem that Zhengliang must solve immediately.

Kill them? This is definitely impossible. Even if the prisoners kneel on the ground and ask you to cut, they don’t know when they will cut. Then the fleeing soldiers will have enough time to run back to the nearby city walls to become the forces of resistance. Zhengliang’s current purpose is to fight for the largest Warring States Period before these soldiers gathered again after dawn to become resistance forces. Therefore, time must be fought against time. Moreover, these prisoners are not fools. If they find something wrong, they will definitely fight to the death. Then there will be a lot of time to pacify them.

Let them go? This is even more impossible. Although there are nearly 10,000 prisoners in front of you and there are many corpses of enemy troops piled up together, Zhengliang can basically confirm that at least thousands of defeated soldiers were scattered in the wilderness at this time. Unlike the captured prisoners, these defeated soldiers still have weapons on them. If these released prisoners and these defeated soldiers gathered again, God knows what will happen. So these prisoners cannot be let go.

It’s not like killing, it’s not like not killing. How to deal with these prisoners has become a difficult problem.

In the end, Zhengliang gritted his teeth and decided to take the risk of breaking up the prisoners into three groups and joining them into the three groups of the Luo family. Of course, these prisoners had no weapons, and they didn't even give them a bite of food. They would pretend to be the military power of the Luo family to confuse the enemy. If necessary, they would become cannon fodder for siege cities.

Of course, in order to calm them down, Masaliang also drew a big cake for them. After the war ended, the Luo family would accept them as local leaders. They would allow them to live and work here. If necessary, they would also help them to bring their families who were not around to settle down together. As for those who did not cooperate, they would directly chop and kill them. In order to demonstrate the determination of the Luo family, Masaliang even immediately cut and kill several former Otomo who were deliberately causing trouble during the period and the leader of the Danei family's coalition soldiers.

After a few carrots and sticks, I finally comforted the prisoners. At this time, the nearby servant Zhu took the snake orchid pill and walked over quickly to report the report:

"Lord, the soldiers in charge of pursuing the defeated army in front found a large number of enemy formations that were fleeing with all their might. It seemed that there was Otomo's family's governor, Yoshiki Otomo." During the previous ambush, Takeo's friend Takio Kōtsuru hid in order to protect Masaru's safety and finally died. So Takeo's Senlanmaru hated the Otomo family and the Oui family very much. Now that he heard about the whereabouts of the Otomo family's governor, he naturally rushed to Masaru to report regardless of whether it was true or false, hoping that Masaru would pursue him immediately.

"What?" Masara was also surprised when he suddenly heard about the whereabouts of Ototo Yoshimiya. In fact, Masarara had never known that the head of the Ototo family was Ototo Yoshimiya this time, and he didn't know that Ototo Yoshimiya was in the camp here.

On the contrary, according to Black Hawk's information, he knew that the head of the Ouchi family was Sugi Yoshimoto, and the Toji Kenlian (i.e., Li Hanamichi) of the Otomo family was also in the camp. During the previous arrangements, Masara had specially arranged people to search for these people. Maybe a big fish was hiding among the prisoners at this time.

Of course, Masara did not have much hope for whether he could catch these big fish. Because in this case, the generals of the rich who were protected by their personal ranks generally fled first. Those who were left were often cannon fodder. Now, when he suddenly heard that he had discovered the big fish Ototo Yoshiki, Masara didn't care whether the news was true or not. He immediately lit up the accompanying cape and the samurai team who found the traces and chased after him.

At this time, Otoyo Yijijian didn't know that a ferocious eagle was chasing behind him. In this battle tonight, Otoyo Yijijian was quite embarrassed. He thought he had already made sufficient preparations for the Luo family's night attack, but he did not expect that the Luo family would use such an irresistible night attack plan as the Fire Bull Formation. Yes, just as they were escaping, they found a burned ox in the bush, and then they knew what the monster that attacked their camp last night was.

What made Otoyo Yoshiki even more hit was that last night, the temporary decision to organize the defeated troops to reverse the disadvantages was that it attracted a key attack from the Luo family's army. In order to protect him from escaping, the most elite samurai in the Otoyo family diverted several times and left behind the rear. Now, there are less than 60 people left by Otoyo Yoshiki. This time, not only did it lose more than 10,000 troops, but even the relative samurai who is based in the foundation of the Otoyo family's Fenghou Kingdom was seriously injured. Even if he was lucky enough to escape back to Fenghou Kingdom, the power of the Otoyo family could not effectively suppress the powerful families. It can be said that Otoyo Yoshiki this time was really back before liberation.

"Lord, you are going to pass through the Kasuno family's Bamboo City ahead. Will you go to the city to rest?" At this time, a relative warrior came to report.

"No, keep moving forward, don't pause, and don't disturb the Kusino family." Ototo Yoshiki said immediately. Regarding the news of last night's great defeat, the Kusino family, which was near the battlefield, will definitely be quickly obtained. With the power of the Kusino family in the Kazuo country, and there is a lack of guards around him at this time, I really don't know if the Kusino family will replace the flags on the city wall and become effective in the arms of the Luo family. He doesn't want to become the Kusino family's reputation for the Luo family.

Not only the Kusino family, but even the Hoshino family, the subsequent Hoshino family, did not intend to stay. His goal was to return to the Hiji Castle at the junction of Fenggoku and Jigoku as quickly as possible. There, the military advisor Yukiki Kazuki was responsible for commanding the rear there. As long as he got there, everything would be safe.

After running wildly for half an hour, everyone was almost exhausted, so they had to stop and rest next to a stream that entered the Zhuhouchuan.

"Lord, water!" Just as he took off his armor, a relative warrior with blood on his body made some water from the stream with some wide leaves to drink for Otoyo Yoshiki.

"Go and find out if there is anything to eat nearby." After taking the water filled with leaves, Otomo Yoshiki no longer cared about whether it was hygienic. He raised his neck and drank the water in one gulp, then threw the leaves casually, let out a strong breath and said to the servant beside him.

After a fierce night of fighting, I ran for another morning. Almost everyone was hungry and there was no village nearby. Yoshiki Otomo had to order people to find out if there were any wild things to satisfy their hunger in the nearby fields. However, because it was already autumn, and the military power of the Otomo family trampled on the fields here before, the farmers who cultivated here had long harvested all the crops here, so at first glance, there was nothing but weeds and soil.

Although Ototo Yoshiki was worried that there would be pursuers to chase him later, even if they did not have the energy, they could not go further even if they continued to run. Now at least they had to let everyone rest and replenish some physical strength. So in desperation, Ototo Yoshiki had to order everyone to take off their armor and run to the stream to catch fish to satisfy their hunger. It was obviously impossible to make a fire, because they did not have a fire in their hands, so they were even more afraid of attracting the attention of the Luo family army. So they were going to eat raw fish.

However, there were not many fish in the stream. Some of the larger fish had been caught by the farmers who had cultivated here to improve their food, while others ran along the water to the Chuhou River. The smaller fish were not only difficult to satisfy their hunger, but also difficult to catch with their bare hands. So after half an hour, they caught dozens of small fish, and when they spread it to everyone, they were pitifully few. Even Otoyoshi Yoshimi, who was the governor of the family, only divided them into two small fish.

Because he was so hungry that Otomo Yoshiki picked up the fish and stuffed it directly into his mouth without caring about it, instantly swallowing the little fish, head and tail.

"Not good, lord, there is a large group of pursuers behind us." At this moment, the relative warrior who was responsible for keeping guards on the periphery hurriedly ran back to report the report.

"What? How far is the pursuer from here?" After forcing his heartbeat to stabilize, Yoshiki Otomo asked immediately.

"It's less than half a mile away from us."
