For Uesugi Keikatsu's aggressiveness, Naoe Kane, who has always been sharp-tongued, is silent at the moment, his biological father's serious injury has hit him hard, Uesugi Keikatsu is not only not comforted, but blames all the alliance with the Tokugawa family on him, but I don't know that if he hadn't nodded and agreed, even if he had ten guts, Naoe Kasuke would not dare to make a secret agreement with Tokugawa Ieyasu without authorization, these complaints came to his heart for a while, although Naoe Kasutsu was annoyed, but he didn't dare to argue with Uesugi Keikatsu, At least in this city, the Aizu Nayan in front of him is still the supreme existence.

The quarrels inside the city could not be heard outside the city, but the sound of guns and the shouts of charging outside the city were clearly heard by everyone inside the city. As soon as the day dawned, the 80,000 Toyotomi troops who crossed the Yugawa River attacked the main passes of Wakamatsu according to the prior plan, and more than 10,000 people of Hirayamaso, with Otani Yoshitsugu as the general, were responsible for seizing Jonanzhuang and then attacking Nishiidemarunaimon; Kitagawara's 17,000 troops, with Fukushima Masanori as the general, were responsible for filling in the Gokencho and directly attacking Honmaru; The 26,000 troops of Inomata Village adopted the model of the two generals of Wasuka Iemasa and Shimazu Yoshihiro, and focused on attacking Ikebo, the stronghold of the Uesugi army on the shore of Gokencho, and once this place was captured, Honmaru was completely exposed to the large barrel and iron cannons, so the main force was mobilized; As for the 21,000 people on the Tsuruhara Plateau, they were divided into two routes, one was composed of Kobayakawa Hideaki and Tanaka Yoshimasa, who were responsible for attacking the south gate of Ninomaru, and the other was composed of Shima Kiyoshi and Hineno Hiroshi, of which Hitanohiro was stationed under the platform and was always ready to support Kobayakawa, while Shima Kiyoshi stayed on the platform and condescended to observe the nearby military situation.

The division of labor was already clear, and the daimyo naturally did not dare to slack off, especially the two armies led by Fukushima Masanori and Wasuka Iemasa, the important ministers of the Toyotomi clan, took the lead in attacking the established location at almost the same time. Fukushima Masanori's plan was simple, using iron cannons and large barrels to suppress the Uesugi army in Honmaru so that it could not hinder the forces under the castle that were responsible for filling the water ho, and this plan worked at first, but over time. The defenders of the castle came up with a countermeasure of throwing stones and pouring hot water from inside the castle to the outside of the castle, and a lot of iron cannons shot Ashigaru through the narrow space to fire black guns on the Toyotomi army in the field outside the castle, so that the progress of Fukushima Masanori was much slower than expected.

The slow progress of the Fukushima Army was seen by the Otani and Wasuka armies on both sides, and in order to be the first to attack the city, both armies did their best to step up the attack. The 2,000 Uesugi troops occupying Jonanso were commanded by Yamaura Keikuni and Kurokawa Naisho, and in the face of a force five times their size, the two did not confront them head-on, but scattered their forces throughout the village. Use street fighting to fight and deplete the Toyotomi army. Yoshiyoshi Otani has been through a hundred battles. After discovering the Uesugi army's plan to break into pieces and lure the king into the urn, he immediately stopped marching into Jonanzhuang. Instead, he sent 6,000 men of Kyogoku Takaji to bypass the village and attack the inner gate directly, while Otani Yoshitsugu led the remaining 4,000 troops to ambush at the entrance of the village, waiting for the Uesugi army in the village to come out of the village to support Nishiidemaru.

Sure enough, it was learned that the Toyotomi army did not intend to enter the village to fight with it. Instead, they took the opportunity to attack Nishiidemaru, and Yamaura Keiguni and Kurokawa Weimi hurriedly gathered troops to stand out from Kitamuraguchi, preparing to attack the Toyotomi army from behind.

As soon as Uesugi Junfu left the village, Otani Yoshitsugu and Yamazaki Iemori were encircled from the east and west, and Shinjo Naoyori blocked the entrance to the village according to the plan, so that the Uesugi army had no way to retreat. It was only at this time that Yamaura Jingguo knew that he had been caught in the plan to lure the snake out of the hole, but the Toyotomi army was tightly blockaded and could not break through, and Kyogoku Takaji, who had previously feinted to attack the inner gate, also returned to the army to support. In less than two quarters of an hour, this Uesugi army was defeated, except for Kurokawa Weimi who led eighty cavalry to break into Nishiidemaru, most of the army, including Yamaura Keikoku, became a ghost under the sword, and the head was different. Hearing the news, the Nishiidemaru Mori General Sebe Hikaricho, who went out of the city to support. Unexpectedly, Yamaura Keikoku was defeated so quickly, so he had no choice but to lead his army back to Nishiidemaru to hold his position, and Otani Yoshitsugu immediately deployed after resting in the village for a while, preparing to launch an attack on Nishiidemaru Inner Gate.

Just after the stronghold of Jonanso was successfully uprooted, the Inomata Village Reserve with Wasuka Iemasa and Shimazu Yoshihiro as the generals also successfully cleared the remnants of the Uesugi army on the outskirts of Ikega, and launched an attack on Ikebo from the east, west, and south. Ikebo was originally a small courtyard built after the Gamo clan came to Aizu, with five Xuanding in the north, plains on three sides, a wide field of vision, and an elegant environment. After the arrival of Uesugi Jingkatsu, he dug a canal on three sides of the pond and led the water of Wuxuanding to irrigate it, becoming a paradise surrounded by water on all sides, adding a bit of poetry to Wakamatsu.

It is such an elegant and quiet courtyard, but now it has become a bloody battlefield, because the canal is not too wide, it can not stop the attack of the Toyotomi army, the defender Yasuda Nomoto several times asked for instructions from Uesugi Keikatsu, asking for 4,000 troops to be transferred into the city, but they were all sternly refused. Uesugi Keikatsu believed that Ikebo was the stronghold other than Honmaru that could attract the most firepower, and that as long as Ikebo was held, it would attract more than 25,000 Toyotomi troops so that they could not participate in the attack on Honmaru and greatly reduce the pressure on Honmaru.

Uesugi Keikatsu's order to hold on to Ikebo made the Uesugi army in the workshop fall into deep despair and fear, the radius of Ikefang is less than 100 meters, in the face of dense artillery fire and strong military momentum, this courtyard has long been unrecognizable, and the only fortifications were destroyed at the beginning of the battle, the reason why it has been able to hold the position so far is to rely on the Uesugi army's * to block the route of the Toyotomi army's attack, the final result of this meat grinder-style defense is to kill the enemy 500 and lose 1,000, pay double the price of the attacker, but in the end it is still inevitable that the city will fall, the fate of the annihilation of the whole army.

After all, it is an army of 4,000 people, and even if it is a meat grinder, it will not be wiped out in a moment. Compared with the hard work of Wasuka Housemasa and Shimazu Yoshihiro, Kobayakawa Hideaki, who was in charge of attacking Ninomaru, was sloppy, and after coming to the south gate, instead of rushing to attack the city, he sent envoys to persuade the defenders Kanya Ketsugu and Shimoyoshi Tadashi to surrender, trying to capture Ninomaru without spending a single soldier.

Gan Jie Keiji and Shimoyoshi Tadashi are both generals who have just been withdrawn from Inomata Village, and they are very hateful and disdainful of Kobayakawa Hideaki who took advantage of the sneak attack, and now they see that he has sent people to persuade him to surrender, and they are even more angry, not only blasting the messenger out of the city, but also taking the lead in throwing stones at the Kobayakawa army under the city, and the vanguard Matsuno Shigegen was not prepared to be wounded in the left shoulder by the iron cannon, and the samurai under his command also suffered dozens of casualties. In desperation, Kobayakawa Hideaki had no choice but to order a full-scale attack, but at this moment, an order came asking all armies to stop the attack, and the generals of each army immediately went to Fukusenji Temple, and Hidetoshi had important matters to discuss.
