When the shogunate's standing army set out in a majestic manner, Tokugawa Iemitsu once went out of the castle to see off the old samurai and the retainers of various places, and he was full of confidence that the shogunate army would defeat the Ming army. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Tokugawa Iemitsu even suggested that he would be a pro-conquest, believing that the defeat of the Ming army was an opportunity to strengthen his authority, and he was deeply disgusted by rumors circulating in the market that he was relying only on the Tokugawa family, and he was eager to establish his own Osaka War.

But several old people persuaded him, after all, there were not too many Ming troops who came to attack, if it was more than 10,000 Ming troops, the general who controlled Japan, Jiaguang, would have to conquer in person, which would not increase his prestige, but could only make the local daimyo laugh at him for being in a hurry.

Tokugawa Iemitsu appointed Naotaka Ii as the general to go into battle, and two days after the army left, Naotaka Ii sent a letter that the army met with nearly 20,000 cavalry of the Ming army in Yokohama and was going to start a joint battle.

At this time, both Ieguang and Sakai Tadashi were taken aback, they never expected that the Ming army would be cavalry.

This made them start to suffer some gains and losses, but they still did not doubt that the victory would definitely belong to the shogunate army, but based on the difficulty of the Ming cavalry in the battle of Wenlu Keichō, they thought that the process would be extremely difficult, and the shogunate would suffer heavy losses if they did not get it right.

When the successive Tanma defeated the army reported, the 25,000 army was almost wiped out in Yokohama, the Ming army was sharp with dozens of large barrels and thousands of iron cannons, and the Ming cavalry was fierce, brave and fearless.

Sakai Tadashi even tortured some mounted samurai. The answer was a crushing defeat for the army. The tactics of the Ming army were also interrogated.

The Akito forced the shogunate army to leave the castle with a large barrel bombardment. Forced to fight with the Ming army in the field, the Ming army infantry and the ashigaru standing bloody battle could not stand, and the Ming people, who had always been timid and cowardly, did not run away.

And the Ming army of the large cavalry took advantage of the situation to cover the killing, the Ming cavalry's horses were higher than the cavalry horses were more than half a head, the men and horses were all fully armored, the number of horsepower of the cavalry was invincible, and after the hard battle, the general Guangtian Sheng was damaged on the spot. The Ming cavalry assaulted the flank of the Ashigaru Brigade from the flank, and the shogunate army was almost completely annihilated, leaving less than a thousand cavalry to flee back, while some Ashigaru fled to Yokohama Castle, and the rest were either killed or surrendered by laying down their arms.

Iemitsu endured his anger, at this time, Naotaka I, Toshikatsu Doi, Hotta Masamori and some generals did not know whether they were alive or dead, and the final loss of the army was not too certain, so he could only endure his anger and resentment.

"Your Royal Highness, although the final battle damage has not been determined, the defeat of our army is certain. Nowadays, there are less than 10,000 standing reserves in the whole of Edo, and if the Ming army drives directly to Edo。。。。。。 ”

Matsudaira Nobutsuna pointed out the most important point today. Now the safety of Edo is the most important, as for the Ming army to drive directly to Edo, it is a cover-up, the Ming army is in such a good situation, it will definitely attack Edo, otherwise what will they do in Japan.

But in this situation, Matsudaira Nobutsuna can't stimulate Iemitsu, a general who is not too mature again, so he can only persuade tactfully.

"What should the situation be now?" Iemitsu is now also as big as a fight, 20,000 elite soldiers have been lost, this is the vast majority of the troops in the left and near Edo, and now there are less than 10,000 standing guards to guard the two layers of defense of the inner and outer castles of Edo, which will be extremely difficult.

Iemitsu has almost no experience of battle, and as far back as he can remember, the final battle of Osaka has long passed, and the daimyo of all Japan have surrendered to the power of the Tokugawa family, so if it is said that he has controlled the affairs of Japan, Iemitsu has made a lot of achievements over the years, and has experienced a lot, but the battle is beyond his ability.

"The only way to do this is to pass on the name of the daimyo and gather Edo to fight together, and then defeat the Ming army in one fell swoop to relieve the siege of Edo."

Sakai Tadashi bowed deeply and said decisively.

Iemitsu was speechless and silent for a long, long time, this determination is too difficult to make, if he passes on the daimyo, he believes that the daimyo will not fail to rescue Edo, after all, the prestige of the Tokugawa family is still there, and the daimyo dare not disobey, but it is a heavy blow to the prestige of the shogunate, or even shake the rule of the shogunate, after all, the shogunate is attacked by the Ming army and it is difficult to protect itself, so he can only ask for help.

"Is there no other way?" Jiaguang asked with difficulty.

"There is no other way, if the Ming army comes up to attack Edo directly, the old minister can lead the standing army to inflict heavy losses on the Ming army," Sakai Tadashi was full of confidence in Edo's strong city defense, this fortified city gave him ten thousand people, he could withstand five times ten times the siege of the enemy army, and he could also inflict heavy losses on the enemy army.

"It's just that the general of the Ming army is afraid that he won't be so stupid, if I were him, I would let the Ming army besiege Edo Castle, after all, the food needed for 200,000 Dingkou in Edo Castle is not a decimal, and it is estimated that it will last for three or four months, so besieging Edo is the best policy."

As soon as Sakai Tadashi's words were finished, Iemitsu was speechless for a long time, and he also knew that there was a stake in this, and the Ming army did not need to carry out a siege battle with heavy losses, but only besieged Edo and waited for the fruit of Edo Castle to ripen and land.

Just when Iemitsu was hesitating, the little surname came in to report, and Yokohama's detective arrived.

Yokohama Shogun's general Uii Shinyuemon sent the most accurate battle report, Yokohama battle, the shogunate's standing garrison lost more than 10,000 in battle, more than 10,000 standing garrisons were captured, they all laid down their arms and were imprisoned in the original camp near Yokohama.

And the general of the unified army, the old Ii Naotaka, the deputy general of the old Nakai Toshikatsu, Hotta Masamori were also captured and fell into the hands of the Ming people, and the entire Yokohama was covered with standing corpses that died in battle, and Yokohama is now accepting more than 1,000 standing people who fled in, but only more than 2,000 defenders, I am afraid that they will be captured by the Ming army in the near future, and I hope that the general will make a decision as soon as possible.

Umii Shinyuemon was also considered to be loyal to his duties, and reported the battle situation of the Yokohama Battle in detail.

Hearing this, Jiaguang took out the knife under his ribs with red eyes, and frantically slashed the table in front of him, but he heard Kakaka's voice endlessly, and the general's Hundred Refining Treasure Knife neatly shredded the table in front of the case.

Jiaguang still didn't vent enough, he turned his round knife and smashed the screens, tables, chairs, bookshelves around him, and the room was in a mess for a while.

The guards outside rushed into the castle tower when they heard the sound, they thought that there was an assassin assassin, otherwise there would be a sword wind and the sound of fighting.

But as soon as they rushed into the lobby, they saw the hideous-looking General Jiaguang sweeping through all the dead things in the room, and they looked at each other in silence.

Sakai Tadashi waved his hand and asked everyone to step back, he did not immediately dissuade Iemitsu, as a young general who came to the smooth sailing of the wind and water in office, encountered such a predicament, the grievances in his heart were depressed, he deeply understood, besides, Iemitsu couldn't talk about it without venting it all.

Jiaguang smashed all the objects in the room that could be vented, and competed with the beams and pillars, but when he heard a crisp click, this time the knife was defeated and broken.

This also made Jiaguang finally stop, he threw away the broken sword, and gasped heavily.

"Tadashi Sakai issued a conscription order to the daimyo from all over Japan, and came to Edo to relieve the siege after joining the standing offices of the shogunate." Iemitsu's voice was hoarse, trembling with anger and excitement.

The three ministers sat down and discussed how to pass on the name.

This is definitely a science, you must know that the daimyo everywhere are treacherous, and if there is no constant presence of the shogunate and monitoring, they can delay for months to rush to Edo from the territory, the purpose is to try to last into the battle formation and reduce their own losses, so it is necessary to properly settle these daimyo who come to help, which standing and imperial three genealogies will take the daimyo to monitor, and set off to Edo together.

The three ministers discussed for a long time, and finally decided that the Daimyo from all over the Shikoku would come to the aid by boat under the control of the Tosa Domain.

On the Kyushu side, the Nagasaki Prefecture was under the jurisdiction of the Nagasaki Prefecture and the daimyo of Satsuma and other places marched together.

The Kii Tokugawa family monitored the daimyo from all over Kansai and went to Edo together, while the Owari Tokugawa family monitored the daimyo from Ueno and Shimono Omi and other daimyos, and the Mito Tokugawa family monitored the reinforcements of the daimyo from the Tohoku region such as Rikuha.

In this way, there were both families or banners in the west and east of Honshu, and these daimyos, who were not too obedient and had their own concerns, did not dare to delay, so they could only come to Edo as soon as possible, and then gather together to prevent them from being broken by the Breaker Army one by one.

"Your Excellency General, the naval warships of the Ming army have gathered in Kamakura to inspect the area around Sagami Bay, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for reinforcements from Shikoku and Kyushu to land and come to Edo." Matsudaira Nobutsuna asked.

Iemitsu heard that he was raising his forehead, this is really bad news, Satsuma in Kyushu and Tosa Domain in Shikoku are both large domains of one million stones, and their soldiers are relatively elite even in Honshu, but if they can't eliminate the Ming fleet in Kamakura, they can't set foot on the land of Honshu no matter how much light they are, so they can only look at the ocean and sigh.

"Order Satsuma, Tosa, and other feudal domains to gather their sailors and attack the Ming navy in Kamakura with fireboats, even if there is not a single warship left, and burn the Ming army's sailors in Sagami Bay."

Jiaguang gritted his teeth and said, when it comes to the sailors of the Ming army, Jiaguang hates it to the bone, and the reason why the shogunate has fallen into such a situation today is due to the sailors of the Ming army.

This time he was also ruthless, since the warship is not an opponent, then it will be used as a fireship, and it is always okay to die together.

The two old lieutenants also have no good way to deal with this, the sailor is not as good as the man, just this makes the shogunate passive in every way, if the sailor is strong, the Ming people can't even enter the land of Honshu, and there is a big defeat in the battle of Yokohama, do they still have such a headache.

For the first time in the history of the Tokugawa shogunate, Tokugawa Ieyasu and Tokugawa Hidetada's daimyo were to gather an army of 200,000 to meet the emperor in Kyoto and show their strength to the emperor and the daimyo from all over the country.

And this time it was to resist the attack of the Ming army, which can be described as extremely humiliating, but the Tokugawa shogunate had no way, and the latest battle report came, the Ming army captured Yokohama and was advancing towards Edo, and the town of the Tokugawa shogunate, Edo, was in turmoil.
