    A very good read !

    And wisdom to aid us in our daily lives is in it, too.

    For why change your style of battle simply because it results in crushing defeat?

    A mini update for the first big battle between our factions.

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    In response to the Chosokabe's landing of an assassin on Shizamu soil the trade agreement with them was ended. Generous terms were offered for its renewal, but for some reason they not only did they refuse, they declared war.



    So the Zimazu prepared for war with the Chosomonkey dogs. Our port towns filled with the sound of industry as two mighty fleets were put together. The stories of their victories as they drove the Chosokabe from their trade nodes is chronicled elsewhere, but not yet told is the fate of the invasion of Shikoku that followed. A mighty force was put together under the heir Mitsuaki and landed near Iyo.

    Shortly after, its leader was found dead in his tent. Clearly the Chosomonkey knew that if Mitsuaki lived their cowardly troops would lack the courage to attack the army of such a stalwart general, or so the new commander Hongo Nobunori told himself. Then again, he also told himself things couldn't get any worse...



    Undaunted by the greater numbers, he arrayed his troops on a hill preparing to meet the charge of the ill disciplined rabble that made up the Chosomonkey army.




    Before moving up the hill, several units of archers were ordered to put up obstacles to stmy charges.



    Zimasu spearmen bracing for the enemy's charge.



    After exchanging volleys of fire the Chosomonkeys came on in a great horde. Norunobi's archers spread out seeking better firing points to take as many of the enemy with them as possible, while his cavalry went hunting after the enemy general.



    The Zimasu cavalry were successful in their hunt, ambushing an enemy general that came to reinforce the enemy. Knowing that the battle was over, Norunobi ordered the retreat. Against superior numbers and with their leader so recently assassinated, the Zimasu had still injured their enemy greatly and inflicted far more losses than they took. For now that was the only victory that could be had.

    Chosomonkey update #6: Mopping Up

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    With the Zimazu invasion force roundly defeated it just remained to mop up the survivors before they could board ship and flee.
    The Daimyo, growing in influence and stature all the time, ordered his ninjas to stop the enemy army from leaving while he could make up ground on them and wipe them out.





    Then he moved in for the kill.



    The enemy force was hiding on a hill in some trees, true to their nature, the honourless cowards.



    The battle was short but still the enemy escaped with a small force.




    And so the Daimyo ordered his troops in without him and on the military advisors' advice stayed back in order to preserve the family line and the leadership of the mighty Chosomonkey clan.



    At least that's what they thought. Unbeknownst to his wise military advisors the brave and somewhat hotheaded Chosomonkey Daimyo slipped out the back of his tent and rode off to join the battle...alone...arriving just in time and just on the wrong side of the battlefield to be caught and killed by the honourless dog Zimazus, to the stunned disbelief of his army.



    It was a bittersweet moment for the Chosomonkeys. Their invading foe was vanquished but their Daimyo had fallen.....again....
