How many people died in the Yamauchi Takami, Miyoshi Hotaka, and Miyakei Mori families, it was hard work, and to find the corpses, it was first necessary to dig up the collapsed Sanbon Matsu Castle, and then clean up the corpses, and it was also a heavy task to recognize them from the vague corpses of the enemy and me. Of course, there are also lighter algorithms, which are calculated according to the missing person, let the living person find their companions, and then count all the missing companions into the missing person, which is similar to the modern missing person query.

It was a heavy and meticulous task to reopen the collapsed Sanbonmatsu Castle and clean it up, and it was obviously an impossible task to complete it in a short period of time, and even if it was excavated, it was unknown how many complete corpses would be found. No matter how sad the rest of the people are, they don't dare to make false reports under the investigation of the investigators, and for them, there is no point in making false reports.

In the end, the number of casualties was more than 1,000, of whom nearly 500 were missing.

Among them are Yamauchi Takatsu, Miyoshi Hotaka, and Miyakei Sheng, the three of them are in the center of the explosion, and if you want to find them, you need to dig up the entire Sanhonmatsu Castle, and to determine whether they are still alive in the short term, it is an impossible thing for the ancient times of the Cold Weapon Age. Even in modern times, with all kinds of siege equipment, it is difficult to dig up and confirm that the missing person is still alive in the first place, not to mention that this is a long-distance journey. Excavation is basically a time when it comes to hands.

More than 500 people were not all killed or injured. It's just missing people. The death toll continued before the arrival of the political balance, some were seriously injured, and some died after four or five days, and some lay in bed for more than half a month before dying of pain.

You must know that in this era, the medical facilities are quite incomplete, and the number of military doctors in an army of 10,000 people is seriously insufficient, and even sometimes it is still a missing link. But obviously there are not many of them, at most they can deal with some minor injuries and diseases, and if they want to deal with advanced surgical operations such as amputation, they can only hope for a miracle. Amputation surgery, for the surgery of this era, it is already pitiful that two or three people can survive in ten cases, and most of the rest will not be able to endure the pain, and some will be extremely high because of the symptoms after amputation, especially wound infection.

The total number of the three forces is only 1,500, and nearly 500 are missing. Of the 500 remainers, 131 bodies were found, and only 200 survived minor injuries. The rest of the people can only resign themselves to fate.

The loss of thousands of people can be said to be a torment for the remaining four or five hundred, who are full of hatred in their hearts, and do not know who to vent to, most of the dead and injured are their relatives and fellow villagers, and those who can name when investigating the missing persons are their relatives and friends.

In order to shirk their responsibilities and appease these bitter Bigo people, Miyazawa Heihachi and Taoyama Masayori actually wanted to kill all the people of more than a dozen natural villages near Tsuwano, and this cruel task was entrusted to them

The explosion of Sanbon Matsu Castle caused not only heavy losses to the Date army, but also the strong labor force of these natural villages became one of the missing people.

When the more than 20 natural villages where the family wore filial piety and didn't know how the new ruler should treat them, a group of people with the same hatred raised their butcher's knives towards them one after another, and the four or five hundred strong mourning troops were naturally not the opponents of the villages where only the old and weak women and children were left.

Suddenly there were shouts of killing, and the screams suddenly began, and the village, which had already fallen into sorrow, turned into a hell on earth of slaughter. These young people, who had come with dreams, needed to vent after a nightmare war.

Yoshimi Masarishi pulled all the strong laborers in the villages under his jurisdiction to Sanhonmatsu Castle for the sake of Cage Castle, and most of the people followed Yoshimi Yorishige, and most of these people have been beheaded, whether they surrendered or resisted to the end, all of them were cut off their heads.

Most of the remaining people in the villages under his jurisdiction are old and infirm, as well as women and children, but there is no distinction between men and women among these guys who are blinded by hatred, only between friends and enemies.

The smell of blood permeated the entire village, drifting away with the breeze. Screams, shouts, curses, and occasionally a few terrible screams, it was clear that the killing was still going on. A village of hundreds of people soon turned into a ghost village.

None of the more than 20 natural villages were spared, in fact, only 13 villages suffered bad luck, and 8 villages escaped, and they were so frightened that they fled overnight after hearing that their neighboring villages had been slaughtered, and all of them fled into the mountains and forests, not daring to come out, and lived the life of savages.

Nearly half of the thirteen villages, after blocking all the roads to flee to the mountains and forests, blocked them up, squeezed them inward in unison, killed people on sight along the way, got up as military prostitutes when they saw a woman with a little bit of possence, and then said that they had robbed the house first, and there were headless corpses lying on the ground everywhere they went.

These people went from being angry and killing indiscriminately at the beginning, to consciously looting later, and even the personnel of other units joined in, and the killing team of four or five hundred people at the beginning had grown to thousands by the third day, most of whom were natives of Iwami Province.

They stretched out their wicked hands to the people of the village, first scavenged them clean, then slashed them with a hundred knives, burned and looted them together, and the severed heads were transported back to a carved square in front of Sanbon Matsu Castle in mule carts.

There were more and more corpses in the square, and there were corpses of men and women of all ages, young and old, and even began to do something against women and children who had no ability to resist, and one by one their heads fell off, and they recklessly organized and disciplined people in the villages to commit crimes, and they searched from house to house in various villages under the leadership of the officers all day long. When I met a woman with a little posture, I rushed up to vent.

This only lasted five days. Except for those who fled near Tsuwano. There weren't many people left alive, all the old and young, women and children were spared, and some of the Yoshimi clansmen were also beheaded, and when Masahiro stepped on Tsuwano, he saw a pile of heads crawling with flies.

A man in his forties walked up to Zhengheng, knelt on the ground, and replied, "Kill them all!" "His blade had long since been confiscated, but the gap on it showed that it was a knife that could no longer be used. It was stained with blood, and there was a smell of blood that always surrounded it, and by this time the knife marks had dried up, leaving black marks on the hilt. He is the nominal leader of this vengeful army, yes, only nominal, although he is not from the three families, but he is a somewhat prestigious man among the tribes.

The middle-aged man has no pleasure of revenge, let alone the excitement after killing. He was just exhausted. It's even a bit of a crumbling look after losing its strength. Mashiro looked at him coldly, he really didn't expect that he would turn Tsuwano into a hell before he arrived.

After speaking. He actually sobbed under his breath. Zheng Heng didn't know why he was acting so crazy, and he didn't know what the story was behind him, he didn't even want to know the other party's name, and it was obviously difficult for such a person who was full of killing to go to war again even after returning to his hometown.

No, he's not alone. So the people who participated in the massacre of the nearby villages were basically like this, fighting, killing, venting, killing. All of these people were suffering from mental illness, commonly known as post-war psychological syndrome.

At this time, in the era of extreme lack of medical conditions, mental illness is a profound theory, fortunately, there is the best medicine for mental illness in this era, faith, yes, idealism is popular in this era, and materialism is still a discipline to be developed.

The only thing Zheng Heng can do is to drive all these mentally ill guys out of the army, if the monks of the monastery go to the place where they live to preach quickly, they will definitely get unexpected results, and these mentally deficient guys will definitely become the most devout believers.

On the 21st day of July in the first year of Koji (1555), the weather was fine, and the men with mental illness finally gathered up all the headless corpses, dug a huge pit, filled the pit with firewood, poured fire oil, lit a fire, and poured the corpses into the fire pit with a cart. The stench of burning corpses soon spread. After smelling this smell, even Zhengheng, who has been in the killing field for a long time, can't stand the stench, and wants to vomit but can't vomit.

Tens of thousands of corpses were burned for nearly ten days before they were burned, and after the burning, the flames in the fire pit were still emitting black smoke, and the black smoke was mixed with a stench, which could not be dissipated for a long time, and the people who participated in the killing felt strong disgust for the first time, and ran to the side of the road to vomit.

The corpse can be burned, and it is obviously impossible for the head to be burned early, and it needs to be placed on the original site of Sanhonmatsu Castle for a few days, and if there is no disposal on a hot day, I am afraid that it will immediately cause a plague, and this matter is a particularly important matter.

Mashiro ordered quicklime to be excavated and then poured wherever it could, and the entire Tsuwano area was filled with the sullen smell of quicklime. Zheng Heng's brain is quite sober, since he has arrived in person, then the follow-up things must be handled properly.

Masahiro was determined to stay in Iwami Province and deal with the post-war affairs with his own hands, and his spirit of going all out was both like a god and a stubborn ghost in the eyes of Miyazawa Heihachi and others. After dealing with the killing of Tsu and No, the next thing to deal with is the two people who are good at asserting their opinions, Miyazawa Heihachi and Tao Yama Masayori.

Miyazawa Heihachi and Taoshan Masayori made their own decisions, and the original plan to starve and kill Tsu and no was approved by Masahiro, and seeing Masahiro's momentum like a rainbow, the two of them were moved to conquer Sanbon Matsujo as soon as possible, so as to give it to Masahiro as a gift.

Eager for quick success, Miyazawa Heihachi and Taoshan Masayori also did not expect Yoshimi Masayori to do such a thing, and actually uprooted Sanbon Matsu Castle and died with the city, such outlaws are also rare in the world, and they were knocked from heaven to hell.

Since before the war, Mashiro had promised to hand over the acquired Tsuwano to the management of Masuda Fujikane. Then the future of Tsu and No, who has been killed as a ghost, will naturally be managed by Masuda Fujikane, who will continue to capture the remnants, build burned castles, and repair roads, all of which are still completely under the command of Masuda Fujikane.

Although Masuda Fujikane was a little complaining about not getting enough people, he was still grateful for such a large piece of land, and immediately came to give a gift to Masahiro, and at the same time dedicated his sister to Masahiro, who obviously had no heart to enjoy this young girl who was known as the first beauty in Iwami Province.

Miyazawa Heihachi and Tao Yama Masayori were quickly brought in, their eyes were bloodshot, their faces were messy, and they hadn't cleaned up for a long time. Zheng Heng looked at the two of them, there was no joy or dislike on his face, and said flatly: "Do you know why I agree with you to use the method of starvation? ”

The two looked at each other and shook their heads in unison. In the previous wars of Zhengheng, there was no starvation, and cage battles were rare, all of them were field battles or bypassing the fortified city to attack the enemy's weak points, and this was the first time that it was agreed to use starvation to crack the cage battle.

Zheng Heng shook his head and said: "The two provinces of Shanyin and Shanyang will soon usher in a great unification, although the cage city battle will take a long time, it will not cause a large number of killings, once the killing is too much, the root of resentment will be deeply rooted in the earth, passed down from generation to generation, and he will incur misfortune in unexpected places one day." "If peace is to continue and the rule of the Date family is to be secured, the first thing to do is to dissolve people's hearts and minds and change people from a state of mind in times of chaos to a state of mind in times of peace, and it takes a lot of courage to do such a thing.

Zheng Heng continued: "Sometimes there are always things that change in war, I originally only wanted to sit in Yinshan City of Anyi Country and command the overall situation, but the fighter plane was fleeting, I seized the fighter plane and achieved a brilliant victory. Tell me, did you catch the fighter? No. Did you create a fighter? No. You can preach the victory of Zhou Fang and Nagato, dispel the faith of the defenders, and achieve your goal. But you have done a stupid thing by using the most clumsy methods to achieve the final victory, and you are still complacent. (To be continued......)
