Sensei lshikawa's traitorous former student, Tomoe, is training Mongol archers in Hiyoshi. Her archers have surrounded Hiyoshi Springs, cutting it off ahead of a Mongol attack. Tomoe is as brilliant as she is deadly. We have to stop her.
2. Follow Ishikawa / Survey the region around Hiyoshi Springs

3. Reach the coastal road / Keep an eye out for Mongols / Defeat the Mongols
The place you should go to will be marked on the map. Go there. When you notice a corpses lying along the road, it means you've reached your destination.
Be vigilant as you will be attacked by a group of Mongols after a while. Kill them all.
4. Reach the bridge near the coast / Defeat the Mongols
