On the hillsides on both sides, more than 5,000 soldiers were ready for battle with Mauser rifles in front of them and grenades in their hands.

After the mine exploded, the commander gave an order and more than 2 grenades fell from the sky. The explosions in the valley were deafening and smoke filled the entire valley. After five rounds of grenade bombing, the Tokugawa army had lost more than half of its troops, and no more than people could move.

Before the Tokugawa army could react, when the smoke cleared, five thousand Mauser rifles opened fire at the same time. The tongues of flames from the muzzles intertwined into a dense fire network, ruthlessly reaping the lives of the enemy.

For a moment, the sounds of gunfire, artillery fire, and shouts of killing resounded through the sky, and the entire battlefield fell into chaos.

The Tokugawa army was unable to fight back in the face of such powerful firepower and could only flee around like headless flies, but no matter which direction they fled, they could not escape the fate of death.

A quarter of an hour later, 50,000 Tokugawa troops had been wiped out. The battlefield was littered with corpses and blood, and the air was filled with strong smells of gunpowder and blood.

Tokugawa Koyasu was detained and stood on the top of the mountain, together with the crazy Oda Masamizu. He looked at the battle at the foot of the mountain, and a sense of powerlessness surged in his heart. The Heaven and Earth Alliance was too powerful. Their offensive was as turbulent as a tide, and they slaughtered their own soldiers mercilessly. He closed his eyes again, unwilling to watch this cruel scene.

On the battlefield, Tokugawa Koshin watched the soldiers around him fall one after another, knowing that the situation was hopeless.

He was extremely anxious and quickly took off his general's armor, stripped off an ordinary soldier's armor from the dead body beside him and put it on.

Then, he smeared a lot of blood on his face and body, disguising himself as a soldier who had died in battle. He then quietly hid under the dead body of the soldier, trying to deceive the search of the Tiandi Army and escape by chance.

At this time, Tokugawa Koshin's heart was beating like thunder and he was so nervous that he could hardly breathe. He knew that if he was discovered, the consequences would be disastrous.

However, he had no choice but to pray silently for Amaterasu's blessing, hoping to escape the disaster. Time passed by, and the sound of killing gradually faded away, but Tokugawa Koshin still did not dare to act rashly. He waited quietly. It was almost dusk and the sky was about to get dark. He planned to wait until it was dark and make sure that the surroundings were safe before escaping the battlefield.

At this moment, the Heaven and Earth Alliance was busy cleaning up the chaotic battlefield.

They gathered together the terrified prisoners who were kneeling and begging for mercy, and for those who were only slightly injured, they simply bandaged them and threw them into the prisoner camp without mercy.

These captives were free labor and could be used to mine and cultivate the land.

However, for those who were seriously injured and could not be treated, the coalition forces would decisively shoot them again to end their suffering.

After all, in this era, medical technology was not yet developed, and most of the seriously injured would eventually die from wound infection. Since they were going to die anyway, ending their suffering early might be a kind act.

Wei Xiaobao stood halfway up the mountain, staring at the battlefield below. Suddenly, he turned to Shuang'er beside him and said something out of the blue: "Shuang'er, let's go catch turtles."

Shuang'er looked at Wei Xiaobao with a puzzled look on her face, and asked in confusion: "Husband, where did the turtle come from on this battlefield?"

Wei Xiaobao showed a mysterious smile and answered confidently: "If you don't believe me, I'll go down and catch one for you to see. It's a big turtle!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Xiaobao couldn't wait to get up and walk towards the battlefield at the foot of the mountain.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of Wei Xiaobao like a ghost, blocking his way forward and causing him to almost collide head-on with it.

"Su Quan, what are you doing? Why are you blocking my way?" Wei Xiaobao asked somewhat unhappily.

"Xiaobao, how can I feel at ease when you go to the battlefield where life and death are unpredictable? No matter what, I will go with you!" Su Quan said with concern.

"Yes, yes!" Ling Zhao and He Jieshou, who were standing aside, quickly echoed.

"Hmph, why don't you just say you want to go? Why use me as an excuse?" Wei Xiaobao complained unhappily.

"Haha, Xiaobao still understands us." Su Quan chuckled, then walked towards the battlefield without hesitation.

Seeing this, Wei Xiaobao shook his head helplessly, but still followed slowly.

On the battlefield, intermittent sounds of additional gunfire continued to be heard, and each gunshot meant the end of the life of a Tokugawa soldier.

Although they were in the enemy camp, Ling Zhao was the emperor of Japan, and every Japanese was his people. Seeing these seriously wounded soldiers pass away, Ling Zhao felt extremely heavy in his heart.

Wei Xiaobao noticed that Ling Zhao was in a low mood, so he went up to her and comforted her: "Sister Ling Zhao, don't be sad. I'll take you to catch a big turtle. I guarantee that you will be happy after seeing this turtle!"

"Really? Then just look forward to it, sister." Ling Zhao responded with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

Wei Xiaobao led Su Quan, Ling Zhao, Shuang'er and He Tishou to stroll through the smoke-filled battlefield. They were just taking a walk, as if the war had nothing to do with them.

When they came to a pile of corpses, Wei Xiaobao stopped and scanned the dead land with sharp eyes. He raised his mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile, and then shouted at the pile of corpses: "Big turtle, are you going to crawl out by yourself, or wait for me to carry you out myself!"

However, the pile of corpses did not make any movement. All around was dead silence, with only the whistling of the wind, as if mocking Wei Xiaobao's provocation.

But Tokugawa Koshin, who was hiding under the pile of corpses, had a storm in his heart. Of course, he could tell that the voice came from the enemy he hated day and night - Wei Xiaobao!

At this moment, Tokugawa Koshin's heart beat faster and his palms were sweating, but he did not dare to act rashly.

He was not sure whether Wei Xiaobao had discovered his hiding place, and he dared not make any noise for fear of alerting the other party.

So he chose to lie quietly among the corpses, continuing to pretend to be dead, praying that Wei Xiaobao would not notice his presence.

Wei Xiaobao stood in front of the pile of corpses, quietly observing the movements around him. His eyes swept over the pairs of lifeless feet, and he muttered to himself: "One turtle has one head, two eyes and four legs. Two turtles have two heads, four eyes and eight legs..."

At this moment, Wei Xiaobao suddenly shouted excitedly: "Ah, Sister Ling Zhao, look, there is something wrong with this leg!"
