Autumn 1530
200 Koku left

**************Attack on Izu*************
I outnumber them, it's 191 to 60.
Because of my cav. archers, I want to attack with good weather, but light rain was the best I could get.
I kept my Daimyo and yari cav. behind the archers, and sent the archers to the flanks. His 60 men appeared to be yari sam., an easy prey for my archers.
After several minutes of 'Hit and Run' tactiks, they have 30 men left and they are marching at the end of the map, on his side, so he doesn't have to flee very long. I know that when I win, the rest of his men die, because there is nowhere to go. (kai, suruga and sagami are possessed by clans) So I don't take great risks. At a certain moment, he charges in at one of my units of archers, so I let them retreat, but not too fast, so that they will keep chasing me. Meanwhile I braught in my yari cav., and I place them behind his unit. When he started the charge on my archers, I let my yari cav. attack. As soon as my cav. charged in at the yari's I let the archers also charge in. Being attacked from two sides and outnumbered, the enemy flees right away. In the heat of the fight 5 of his men escape, but not his general, who's killed.
I won it: 0 losses 55 kills.
********************************************
Because I just conquered Izu, I set the tax back to 100%.
I don't have much money, so I only train 60 ashis in Kai.
I retreat most of my troops to Kai, because Kai is more important and Hojo hasn't attcked Uesugi.
