Jeon Clan (전일족) - Korean Peninsula
The Chong son face was red, he couldn't hide his anger. The other members of the clan try to calm him with words of flattering and profit, but he didn't listen. He raised his hand for silence and then he spoke with a serious tone:
''This castle is one of the biggest in region, my grandfather's father built it, Its walls are tallest and your men are guarding any single door or hole in this place, so how is possible that this man from the low caste entered my house and tried hard to stole part of my property. Today is peasant looking for food and gold, tomorrow an assasin looking for my head. Shall I cut his head and crucify you and all your men for your mediocrity or shall I forgive all, your honor has been stained anyway. I give you the right to choose because you are a general and a longstanding friend of the family. And now I ask you what will you choose?

We are preparing for a total war like the other clans. In conclusion we need strong men if I want to expand our domains. The Shogunate no longer exist and the other clans are struggling for the power at Tokyo, we can't lose this political war. Show me your true loyalty by achieving victory in the new campaign we are planning, I'll send you with your retinue to the north domain with 2,500 men. If you are wise you'll win against the lords of the north, If not you'll be impaled or worst. Please I beg you, don't dissapoint me again!''
The north regions are occupied by 6 warlike clans. The North tribes are quite ferocious and will often resort to violence at slight provocations. However, they are not entirely uncivilized: sometimes when a member from one tribe kills a member from another, their leaders have been known to negotiate a non-violent end to the feud by demanding blood money be paid as compensation by the offending tribe. The North are home to a population of people who have rejected the authority of the Shogunate and are independent from the rest of the Empire and its feudal society. They believe that every person's voice, regardless of gender, should be heard during councils.
They are a poor people with poor quality of weapons and armor. They subsist by raiding local villages, small groups of travelers and will attack even the Emperor if he is not properly protected. They take all weapons, grain, and armor they can find, as well as all women, whether they are wedded or not. Some women participate in raids. However, it has been hundreds of years since the clansmen have threatened the Empire with anything more serious than raids. Their numbers reach 30,000 but someone says that quality is better than quantity. Will General Nam Sang-Min defeat them with an army of 3,000?

Tribes Ye of the East (东野) - Korean Peninsula
20,000 men were camping in the border between the North and the Jeon Clan domains. They were confident about theirs numbers, they believe that their victory will be easy to achieve. The histories say that the Barbarians were celebrating their recent victories with song, dance, and sake in a village in the border and making some sacrifices in honor of the Tiger god of their land. In the cloudy sky started to cry some tears when the land of Jeon Clan was going to be invaded.
''The Barbarians has 30,000 men marching toward this place? I don't believe that. They 'only' have 20,000 soldiers. Yes, that is still too many. So, Hyemsong, you want me to surrender. What if we do surrender? Will you get content with losing your life that way? Or what if we hold on like Ui wants me to? What if we stay here in this castle, lock it up, and wait until the Barbarians lose appetite and stop the siege and go home? We will be able to prolong our lives for five or ten days, and what we cannot defend will still be undefendable. We are at the bottom of the pit, you know. And our fate is interesting. Of course the misery is too great, too. But this is how I see it: this is a chance in a lifetime. I can't afford to miss this. Do you really want to spend your entire lives praying for longevity? We were born in order to die! Whoever is with me, come to the battlefield tomorrow morning. Whoever is not, just stay wherever you are and watch me win it! I'll secretly support the general because I want to be in the books and songs of out people.''

When they approached by more than one assailant, the barbarians always focus on the entire group and not one person individually. They tried to find a way through the enemy army and escape. Once they view your potential exit, they do whatever needs to be done to reach it. Redirect attacks, strike and constantly move. They didn't interact with all your attackers, just the ones that block the path between you and the escape route. One key advantage they have that most people find hard to understand is that when they start breaking joints, cracking noses and poking out the eyes of the first few “recipients,” the remaining men may begin to back up and unknowingly help them clear the path and make the survivours to escape. But when the barbarians reached the exit a horn sounded with all his potential. An army of 10,000 strong leaded by the Chong son appeared.
''We need slaves for the new harvest so don't exterminate them. It looks like General Nam strategy worked as I expected. Let's return to our tent while he finish the dirty work'' The Chong son declared.

Deian salazar wrote:Russian people of america wrote:Kazuki smiled, letting out a breath of relief silently. Suddenly Makoto came up, and he felt nervous for a moment till realizing that the boy was talking positively, rather than with anger or distrust. Suddenly pride washed over him and he couldn't help but keep it out of his voice. "He's nineteen, my lord" he resisted the urge continue describing Makoto, how they had trained since he was a mere boy, how he had taught him how to fight and act around others in society. Makoto remained rooted to the spot, his heart pounding fiercely. He had heard stories of how some lords were cruel to their samurai, killing them for nearly no reason at all. However he was reassured by his father's voice. Akashi remained quiet, not trying to bring undue attention to himself. He wasn't a member of a proud or honored family like Makoto or Kazuki, his father had commited Seppuku only a few years prior, however that honor had been destroyed when his mother attempted the same thing and failed. She had lost her status among the Samurai class, leaving him the only samurai in his family. Makoto shifted a second time, almost sensing his friend's distress, but not wanting to have attention drawn elsewhere. He had been brought along to meet his future lord, and he needed to ensure that he didn't disgrace himself in front of such an important figure.
Deian examined the boy closely. He walked around him, and put his index figure to his lip. Finally, he finished and walked back in front of them.
"I must say I am impressed. You look physically fit, and well trained. I like you. Let's be friends." He said cheerfully. "I just hope you know something about military tactics and politics or you'll be a bad general on the battlefield, which is what I'll make you when I come to power."
He then shifted focus to Akashi, and pointed at him. "And you. You don't feel like a child of Kazuki. What are you? A child of a dishonored Samurai family?" He noticed the boy's surprise and shame, and smiled. "Don't worry. I'll give you the opportunity to restore your clan's honor and serve me faithfully. To me, dishonoring clans is not a good idea during wartime. I'll make you one of my highest ranking retainers."
He then turned to Kazuki again. "You must have adopted Akashi, yes? How about I adopt him as my son instead? Not my heir, unfortunately, just my son. Would that be okay with you?" He proposed cheerfully.

To the Yukoshi Clan
I think It'll be prudent for both of our clans, if we agree to achieve an alliance agreement in the future. I assure you that our clans will get a lot of benefits from it.
My best regards and wishes.
Chong son of the Jeon Clan.

“RAISE THE FUCKING LADDER!” screamed Hae Mangnae as another arrow whizzed past his face. ''Tell General Nam to advance toward the fucking walls''
The entire scene around him was chaos. Fires sprouted where pitch arrows had struck wooden barricades. Men were dead and dying, arrows sticking out of them like pincushions. In the distance he saw another ladder raised onto the wall, with men beginning to climb it, intent on quickly reaching the top.
The ladder that Hae Mangnae had been carrying was next to ascend. The butt was planted into the soft ground below, and Hae Mangnae saw a man run forward with a rope. Beside them soldiers held a wooden plank up to shield them all from arrow fire above, dull thuds rang out whenever they did.
“NOW! CLIMB!” Hae Mangnae yelled again, as the first few men began to ascend. Brave men were these, as they instantly began to draw arrows from desperate defenders above them, and now unshielded by the wooden barricades. Hae Mangnae was not far behind either, clutching his shield in one arm and ascending with the other.
The ascent was arduous, and his shield bearing arm was burning with strain by the time he vaulted onto the walls of his childhood home. The knight had barely enough time to shift his shield to his other arm and draw his sword before the first soldier was upon him.
Two quick slashes later and the man was on the ground, dead or dying. Hae Mangnae stepped over his body, already swinging at the next soldier that presented himself. That one went down too, and so did the next, and the one after. Chaos reigned on the walls of Basugui, man fighting man, all thoughts of Kings and Lords forgotten and the only thing that mattered was living through the night.
“AGAIN!” came the call, and again came the siege ram, smashing into the threshold of the inner keep.
The crash filled the night, wood smashing wood. Hae Mangnae heard it loudest, crouched nearby with others, ready to charge into the gap as soon as the doors were opened. The Barbarian forces had seemingly ran out of arrows some time ago, so the besiegers openly gathered around.
He could not remember how long it had been since that pray with his father. An hour? Many? He could guess with some certainty that it was indeed still night. And that meant that their shared ordeal was not over.
“AGAIN! AGAIN! AGAIN!” Crash. Crash. Crash.
Hells. Put some effort into it, Jeon Dong-woon thought to himself, but almost as if in answer the next crash was louder than usual, and the air was suddenly filled with wooden splinters.
WIth a war cry, Jeon Dong-woon launched himself through the gaps, intent to finally end this battle. But for his eagerness, he paid dearly. Dimly he heard the twang of the crossbows across the hall as they fired at the incoming soldiers. The bolt punched through his armor easily and buried itself into his shoulder, knocking him back onto ground the shield that the shoulder heen bearing dropping uselessly.
The pain was excruciating, radiating out from his shoulder in sharp waves. He felt hands grab and drag him back away from the unfolding scene of chaos. Soldiers rushed into the threshold, and the echoing sound of swords clashing rang out.
“Get that damm armor off,” Jeon Dong-woon heard a voice say, followed by desperate tugging at the straps that held it in place.
“Stay with us, man!” it continued, and that was the last thing Jeon Dong-woon heard before the world went black.
Jeon Dong-woon awoke in a white tent, surrounded by men that were dead or dying. Looking around, he saw monks floating from one man to the next, checking to see if there was still life in their bodies.
He attempted to sit up in his cot, but was immediately hit with a terrible pain from his shoulder. Gasping in pain, he remembered the crossbow bolt that had struck him. Gingerly he examined the bandage that covered the wound. No blood. No bolt either. He flexed the muscles that ran along it, and though another spasm of sharp pain rewarded him, he was relieved that it was still working. Could have been much worse.
The situation hit him then. I could have died. In that exact instant. If the bowman had been a better shot, if I had been only inches to the side. It would have been over.
A Monk approached, examining nearby men. Eventually she got to Jeon Dong-woon’s bed, and looked at the clearly alive human with blank, blue eyes. She moved to continue her work, before Daeron spoke up.
“Monk,” he called. “Monk please. Did we win?”
He looked at him again, just as blankly. He doesn't care about me. It’s only the dead that concern him now.
“In the name of Buddha,” he tried again. “The bloody Jeon's. Did we win?”
For a long moment, he only stared at him. Then, finally, he nodded.
''Where are my generals yikes! it hurts.''
