Although the emperor of the Wa Kingdom no longer had real power in this era, he was the nominal master of the Wa Kingdom. Now that the city is in such chaos, there are all kinds of possibilities.

Hauge was reminded by Qian Fugui, so he immediately explained to the guard just now and asked him to go to the city again.

When the guard heard this, his heart rejoiced, and he withdrew his displeasure, and immediately rushed to the city.

At the same time, there was another battle, which was fought a little earlier than the Battle of Edo. It's just that Emperor Chongzhen doesn't have eyeliner here, so he doesn't know.

It was on the side of Kobe Castle, not far from Osaka, that the Tokugawa shogunate was attacking the outer part of the castle. At this time, the Edo army of Shikoku had already arrived in Honshu, and together with Osaka's men and horses, they wanted to take advantage of the heavy blow to the morale of the captives and rebellion, and wanted to take advantage of it.

In the past, the coalition forces of the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty never thought that they would hide in the city one day. Therefore, after the initial attack on Kobe, no effort was made to build the destroyed walls of Kobe.

Today, the remnants of the Manchu coalition are hiding in this dilapidated Kobe, and the situation is not optimistic.

On the defensive side, everyone is very pessimistic, and they are only instinctively resisting the enemy's attack. And those soldiers who were not in the city leaned against the shelter of the streets and alleys of the city, huddled into a ball, all of them in despair.

Finally, after repelling an attack by the shogunate army outside the city, the leaders of the Catholic army and the leaders of Toyotomi Kunimatsu's men rushed to the Dolgon camp to make trouble.

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Great Qing Dynasty, our people have suffered heavy losses, and we really can't stop it, it's time to send you Qing warriors, right?"

This was to accuse Dolgon of letting the allies defend the city after running back to Kobe, while the 2,000 Qing troops in his hands retreated in the city and did not go up to the city wall to defend.

"How is this battle still going to be fought? We are all farmers, but we are still here to fight to the death. Aren't you Qing warriors usually blowing so hard? Why did Prince Yu surrender to the shogunate? Why did your Qing army flee again when you retreated from Osaka? ”

The leader blamed the fact that when they were evacuated from Osaka, the morale of the troops was completely low. But they didn't expect that there were Qing generals who led about a thousand cavalry troops, and even threw down their emperor, relying on the speed of their horses, and ran away without a trace, and did not come to Kobe at all.

They have always relied on the Qing Dynasty, which is the backbone of the backbone, and such things have happened one after another, which has hit them deeply. If it weren't for the shogunate army rushing after them, they would have been in trouble first.

At this time, Dolgon, or the Manchu army, had plummeted in the minds of these allies. Otherwise, they would not have dared to make trouble in front of Dolgon.

As the emperor of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Dolgon was in a very bad mood when he encountered this series of events. However, he still showed a smile on his face to comfort these allies: "If you persist and persist, I am trying to find a way, and I will definitely be able to defeat the enemy." ”

Who would believe his words at this time? The shogunate army outside the castle was at least twice as large as the army inside the castle in terms of numbers alone. And now that the people in the city are panicked and their morale is gone, it is even more difficult to fight. If it weren't for the fact that this ruined city wall could still be brought down, it is estimated that as long as a field battle comes down, this side will be completely wiped out.

"What can you think of, the Heavenly Warriors? Can you defeat so many troops outside the city with these two thousand infantry troops of the Qing Kingdom? ”

"Yes, your Qing army is actually a silver spear candle head, I didn't expect that even the prince can be a soft egg, and there are still 2,000 people left to use it!"

"You don't have to find a reason, just order, if you want to die, everyone will die together, no matter what, you have to contribute to it, we have been defending the city for a day, and you Qing army of 2,000 people, why should you go up to the city wall?"

“……”

These people are angry, they don't even have basic politeness, and they go straight to "you, you, you".

Dolgon didn't want to listen to him at all when he saw these people, and the smile he squeezed out was gone. Originally, he was in a bad mood, but since he was embarrassed, then don't blame yourself.

Thinking so, Dolgon grimaced and emphasized, "I said that I would defeat the enemies outside the city. “

After saying that, he immediately ordered: "Come, invite them all out!" ”

His guards, who had long been annoyed by the rudeness of these dwarves, immediately rushed up at the command of the order, and looked down at the leaders, holding the hilt of their swords in their hands, and raised their eyebrows coldly. It seems that if one of them is not dealt with, he will draw a knife and cut it.

In the face of the strength of these captives, these Japanese allies and heroes could only swallow their anger and retreat without suffering immediate losses.

But just as they were about to walk out, they heard Dolgon's voice behind them, and his tone was cold: "If the city is broken, everyone will die together." In this situation, the enemy outside the city feels that the overall situation is in control, and will not sincerely accept your avatar at all. And to take a step back, even if the enemy outside the castle can accept your surrender, then Tokugawa Iemitsu will not accept your surrender. Don't forget, what has become of Kyushu and Honshu today, or Shikoku with the addition of Shikoku, Tokugawa Iemitsu will definitely not spare you. ”

When these leaders heard this, they couldn't help but scold their mothers in their hearts one by one, and it was not you who took the lead in killing unscrupulously. Now, we have to bear all these sins?

Thinking about it this way, these leaders were still a little helpless in the end, and they had to admit that the Qing Emperor had some sense.

So what can we do now? If you can live one more day, count it as a day!

After the men had left, Dorgon looked up at the sky outside, and said to himself, "It should be okay to hold on for another night." ”

After finishing speaking, he frowned again, and couldn't help but think, "Where did Hauge go?" Could it be that if you go back to Kyushu, but if you go back to Kyushu, it is also a dead place, what is the use? ”

He deduced from the reaction of the Japanese people at the head of the city that Hauge's army should not be finished. Otherwise, thousands of men and horses, a huge fleet, just within that strait, could have some movement, and would not have been quietly sunk by the Japanese sailors at the bottom of the sea.

I couldn't figure it out, and finally Dorgon sighed and stopped thinking about it.

Today's situation is already very bad for the Qing Dynasty. If a year ago, Dolgon still had the confidence to conquer the Japanese kingdom and finally take it for himself. Now he no longer has this thought.

Alas, anyway, let's talk about it after tonight!

Night soon fell, and on this night, Dolgon did not dare to sleep, and sent his guards up to the city walls to inspect them, urging the allies to be more vigilant and strictly defend them.

The shogunate army outside the city really wanted to take advantage of the cover of the night, and did not want to give the city's captives and rebels a chance to regain their morale, harassed, stormed, and stole the city, and used all kinds of means to try to take Kobe as soon as possible, suppress the largest rebellion since the establishment of the Tokugawa shogunate, and make a great contribution.

Although there were several times when they were almost succeeded by the Tokugawa shogunate army, and even on one occasion, they had already entered the city. However, Dolgon sent the Kenju army in time, regardless of the enemy and us, and killed all the gaps, so that the Tokugawa shogunate army was driven out again.

When dawn fell, the Tokugawa shogunate army, which had been tossed all night, finally retreated. Those who participated in the siege at night were ready to rest, while those who worked shifts during the day were already cooking on fires and preparing to start the attack during the day. Anyway, just one word, don't let the Jianyu and those rebels in the city have a chance to breathe.

These Tokugawa shogunate troops outside the city have already seen the dawn of victory. Because they can feel it from the fight, the rebellion in the city has really reached the end of the crossbow, and it should soon collapse.

The first attack of the morning was about to begin, but Dolgon in the city was uncharacteristically clothed in armor and helmet, and led his two thousand captives in the city square.

When the leaders of those allies heard this, they rushed over one after another, and one by one they collapsed, crying and shouting and making trouble again.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Emperor, can you abandon us!"

"Yes, if you break through, how will we defend it?"

“……”

There are also those who tear their faces regardless of it and scold them directly.

"Sure enough, they are all a bunch of goods, those who surrender surrender, those who run away, choose you as allies, it's really blind!"

"I knew that your Qing Kingdom was like this, and I shouldn't have formed an alliance with you in the first place!"

“……”

Faced with the ugly faces of these dwarves, Dorgon was very disgusted in his heart. But on the surface, he shouted solemnly: "Where do you want to go? ”

This shout immediately suppressed the leaders of these allies.

Seeing this, Dolgon softened his tone a little, but still said solemnly: "I have already made a plan, early this morning, the enemy army is coming, and when you defend the city, I will personally lead the army to fight......"

As soon as he talked about the plan he had set, all of a sudden, these Japanese leaders looked at each other one by one. They really didn't expect that Dolgon would have such an arrangement. If that's the case, maybe it's possible to turn defeat into victory!

But some people couldn't figure it out, and simply asked: "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Great Qing Dynasty, since you have already made such a clever plan, why didn't you tell us yesterday and let us worry for a day?" ”

When Dorgon heard this, he said to himself, "If I tell you that you don't look right when you defend the city, and if the enemy outside the city notices you, what if you are prepared?" Moreover, he actually wanted to consume the enemy's sharp energy outside the city for another day, but he also saw that this Kobe really couldn't hold on to tomorrow.

He thought so, but he said, "This is the only chance we can turn defeat into victory, and I have to be cautious. Guys, you probably care more about winning, right? In this way, you don't have to worry about the rest! ”

These leaders thought about it, and they went back happily one by one.

Outside the castle, the drums of war sounded again, and the Tokugawa shogunate army once again began a new offensive.

Miyamoto Musashi took his apprentices this time, hiding among the soldiers in the back batch, and also participated in the siege together. There was no way, he didn't complete the task assigned by Tokugawa Iemitsu, and now, he had to hope to sneak into the city and cut off Dorgon's head, so that he could offset the credit, and even a reward was not necessarily.

And the reason why he chose to attack the city this time was that he felt that the morale in the city was completely low, and he was harassed all night, so it was very likely that he would attack the city at one time.

However, when the war was together, he felt wrong. I feel that the rebellion of defending the city is like fighting chicken blood, at least more fierce than yesterday's resistance. This battle was fought so that the sky was dark, and the corpses were all over the field.

However, in the end, the Tokugawa shogunate army was well rested and morale was high, and the rebellion at the head of the castle gradually became a little irresistible, and several gaps in the wall had been breached.

As a result, the troops outside the city were in chaos, and they all wanted to take the lead, so they rushed to those gaps.

Miyamoto Musashi was about to take his apprentice over, but suddenly noticed a puff of smoke rising from the castle, the kind that was very thick, straight up into the sky.

In this way, he wondered, the soldiers had just tore through a hole in the wall of Kobe, why was there such a big smoke coming out of the city?

He was thinking about it, but suddenly he heard a movement, and when he turned his head to look, he saw the gates of Kobe open. A team of Jianyu with full armor went out of the city. Advance along the flanks of the besieging forces.

In addition, Miyamoto Musashi also saw that in the middle of the Jianyu, there was the banner of the Jianyu Emperor.

"Bag, what the hell is going on?" Miyamoto Musashi was a little confused.

If the city can't be defended, it doesn't look like a breakout, attacking the flank of the besieging army, not killing outside. But if you want to break the siege, the emperor shouldn't have to come out to fight in person, it's too dangerous!

What's going on? I don't understand!

The Tokugawa shogunate army was caught off guard, especially when the flanks were attacked, and the siege army was defeated by the two thousand captives.

However, thanks to the fact that the Tokugawa shogunate army had enough troops, the Japanese generals commanding from afar saw that the Manchu emperor had killed them, and immediately sent the remaining troops, all of whom came to besiege this Jianyu army. As long as this Jianyu army can be eliminated, it is not so important to conquer Kobe.

Although Miyamoto Musashi hasn't figured it out yet, he doesn't care, it's important to grab people's heads, it's money, it's military merit, and it's a good thing that can make the Tokugawa family happy.

On the Kobe side, there was chaos, and there were fights everywhere in and out of the city.

Even if the army directly under Dolgon was brave, it was only human, and after physical exhaustion, it became the last of the strong crossbows, even if they were well-equipped, but under the siege of the Tokugawa shogunate army, a large number of casualties began to appear.

Looking at these, the shogunate generals in the distance couldn't help laughing, and they finished their work in one battle, and it was done!

At the end of this battle, it is best to capture the Manchu Emperor Dolgon alive, and then tie a rope around his neck, and then be led by Na Duoduo, and return to Edo to present it to the Shogun, who is expected to be very happy!

He couldn't help but laugh when he thought about it. However, at this moment, he suddenly heard movement behind him, as if there were cavalry troops coming. He was a little curious, turned his head to look, and suddenly was dumbfounded.
