I focused on clearing the Mongol soldiers first so they wouldn't interrupt my duel with their leader. After taking down the trained leader and learning the water stance, I defeated a heavier Mongol and moved ahead to rescue villagers.
Using rooftops and stealth, I quietly eliminated torturers while planning how to reach the heavily guarded village elder.
The Mongol leader blocked my attack but his soldiers couldn't so I started attacking them next as I knew they'd be a pain in my ass when I'd be busy fighting their leader.
But the leader didn't abandon his soldiers. He kept trying to attack me when I was taking down his soldiers, and I had to dodge his heavy attacks.
When I was done taking care of the soldiers, I focused on the Mongol Leader. I had to be careful as these leaders are highly trained.
I took him down with careful attacks and then I learned the water stance which would be effective against shieldmen as heavy attacks would deal extra stagger damage with this stance.
Then there came this Mongol with a heavy weapon. He was no leader but he was tougher than the normal Mongols, so I had to be careful with him.
I switched to water stance to fight this enemy and it was a lot effective on him. I took him down easily, though I thought it'd be hard taking him down.
Then I noticed he didn't die yet. I had to end his suffering by stabbing in his back.
I still had to free villagers from 3 cages, take down two more leaders, free 3 village leaders and open two more village gates.
I was moving ahead and noticed a Mongol guarding on the hill above me. I used the photo mode and confirmed there was a village elder they were torturing.
I knew they'd try killing the village elder if they notice me so I didn't let him detect me. I climbed up on a roof and started jumping on other roofs to find a way to get to that Mongol quietly.
Then I noticed a Mongol was torturing some villagers. I jumped on him and assassinated him fast as it looked like he was going to kill the villagers.
I climbed up on the roof again and I noticed the village elder had more guards around her and I'd get detected if I'd take this path so I decided to get to her later.
I heard someone begging for his life and then I noticed a Mongol was torturing a villager inside a house. I witnessed everything through an open window, and then I went inside through another window and I took down that Mongol.
The Mongol was torturing that villager so he'd make Japanese swords for them. I couldn't free the villager yet as there were more enemies on the ground floor.
