However inexperienced soldiers retreat because they can not counterattack. The man who continued to fight to the end with Samurai is caught by Samurai and is taken their village in deep in the mountains. He is taken prisoner but kept alive and touched his heart about life of Samurai unexpectedly because their obstinate belief remember former him. Army of government and Samurai fight again and again. Finally army of government who have modern weapons such as gun win the long battle. And they do the Meiji Restoration.
