attack

"Might let someone get away.
Can not wait any more.
Even only ours，we go to Ikedaya for the arrest."
Around ten o'clock at night、Kondo decided like that.

Around the same time，Hijikata's team also did go the arrest.
But nobody was at there.
Conversely，Ikedaya had gathered 30 people.

・・・・・・・・・

There was man in shinsengumi named "Okita Souji".
He called "genius of swordsmanship" inside Shinsengumi.

They did enclosed Ikedaya at first.
Then Kondo and Okita attacked to them.

2 vs 30.
I also feel like reckless it.
But this may not be less so for them.

Shinsengumi were fully armed.
Because became a surprise attack，Ronin group did not have sword at first.

Also Ikedaya was narrow and low ceiling.
Therefore their action was very limited for a large number people.

・・・・・・・・・　

Speaking of which,12th century in Japan，there was Battle of Hiyodorigoe.
Strong encampment had been built there
The rear was a sheer cliff.

They was attacked suddenly by enemy group that were ran down the cliff with the horse.
That group was small.
But they could not action anything inside strong encampment.

"This is the enemy's attack！
No！should not be able to attack from behind.　
This is betrayal！ "
They had very confusion and were defeated.
　
・・・・・・・・・
　
"If you act in a cowardly way, you capital offense."
There was such law in Shinsengumi.
Above all Kondo was Shinsengumi leader and Okita was genius.
