Epydz (Edo Castle was built by the Tokugawa family after becoming a member of the world, although it cannot be compared with the Forbidden City in Beijing Castle, but the same is a deep courtyard, during which the temple is lined up, and trees are planted all over, so except for the use of cannons by the Xia army in Edo Town, even if the sound of the gun is louder, the city is still inaudible

However, Tokugawa Tsunawa, who sat in Edo Castle Nishimaru as the deputy general of the world, did not rely on his own hearing to understand the movements outside the city, due to Yanagisawa's decision before leaving, and now the three Edo Town commissioners and temple shrine commissioners are running under him" "Speaking of which, the temple shrine is now killed in battle, and those who fled escaped, leaving only a dozen cats and dogs, of course, it is not a powerful tool, but the Edo Town Commissioner's subordinates are concentric but Edo's geographical ghosts, and what is going on in the castle town, They are always the first to know

Therefore, although the control of the Edo Town Shojo over the various castle towns in Edo was weakened because of the large number of people who participated in the war before the war, and the large plan of the Edo Town people to flee after the war also caused most of the eyes of the town hall to collapse, the more than 100 people who knew the streets and alleys of the castle town well were able to bring some news to Tsunjo

However, knowing that the Xia army had broken into the city, and even had a small fight with the samurai left behind by the daimyos, Tokugawa Tsunade still asked another question first: "Ayabe-sama, how many survivors of the Qimoto team and the ashigaru team have been filtered?" ”

The sweaty Edo Town Governor Ayabe Ishiro Tokitai responded: "Watanabe Tango-samaru just sent someone to report that more than 400 flags have been collected so far, and there are more than 600 people as for Ashigaru, but the details are still being screened."

Watanabe Tango Mamoru and Matsudaira Dingnao, who abandoned the army and fled back, were directly arrested under Edo Castle, but when the captured Shokuban returned to the city with the two, the current shogun Tsunayoshi had fled to Kofu in a hurry, and completely forgot about the punishment of the two, so he had to be sent to the deputy general Tokugawa Tsunajo who stayed behind, and Tsunade was unavailable at this time, so he reluctantly let the two of them take the blame for the defense of Edo Castle

As for the surviving Flag Ashigaru, of course, there are more than these, but the first part of the Flag Ashigaru who fled back with Matsudaira Naoto Watana Tango Mamoru was inevitably punished after seeing the general and the deputy general arrested, and then learned that the shogun had fled, and they thought that they no longer had to bear feudal obligations, so they scattered in a hurry, thinking that they either fled from Edo alone, or returned home and left this place with their wives and children

Today, the nearly 1,000 people in Edo Castle escaped back later, but as soon as they arrived at the castle, they were re-released to take charge of the defense of Edo Castle, and Watanabe Tango, who was re-released to take charge of the defense of Edo Castle, was accepted into the castle, and was immediately detained and rectified

"There are many gates in Edo Castle, but there are still not enough of them," Tokugawa Tsunade shook his head, counting the servant academy in the castle who had not had time to escape with the shogun Katsura Shoin and the Edo Town Shogun outside the castle, the garrison in Edo Castle was still less than 2,000, and there were very few left on the wall of Edo Castle for several miles (note: 1ri honri equals 4 km), and even if only a few important gates were guarded, it would not be enough, Ayabe-sama, you have to continue to find a way to collect the family and the flag, and if necessary, you can allow them to take their wives into Edo Castle to hide."

Ayabe retreated, and then Tokugawa Tsunajo turned his gaze to Michihiko of Hefukuji Temple: "Quan Monk Zheng, right now the vanguard of the Xia people is cleaning the Daimyo Yashiki house by house in the Daimyo Koji area, since the Quan Monk has dealt with it, please go to negotiate again, if you can thin Edo Castle, the Quan Monk is meritorious, if not, please also inquire about the latest conditions of the Xia people, so as to end the dispute"

Dohiko of Hefu Temple clasped his hands and said: "There is no need to say much about the Yellow Gate Palace, the negotiation is a matter for the monk."

"Lord Kamikuni, below is the old ghost of the Sendai Domain's residence in the Edo Domain, the old oni Tsukigoro Shengqing" Fu Shaolin was waiting for the warriors of the Kamiku Domain to persuade the samurai who stayed in the mansions of the various domains to surrender, and suddenly someone took the initiative to contact him, "Your Excellency may not know, the last time the Upper Country Boat Master came to Ishinomaki, it was the guest and the host at that time."

Fu Shaolin, who has the rank of third-class lieutenant of the fourth grade, is also a high-level person, so he also learned some stories at the briefing meeting of the Oriental Navy Division to introduce the previous attack, so he knows that the other party is not talking about it, but he is not free and has no authority to deal with the other party now: "What the hell, Ghost Moon, right, this official has no time to listen to your nagging, what you want to say is straightforward, if you want to get shelter, as long as you hand over all your weapons, this official can let you withdraw from Edo safely"

Ghost Moon had an unconscious twitch on his face, and said in his heart that the current state of Chinese etiquette has indeed been reduced to a vulgar and unliterate barbarian land, but no matter how disdainful he was in his heart, Sheng Qing's face could not be revealed, so he could only respectfully say: "The kindness of Lord Shangguo has been received in my heart, but the withdrawal from Edo is only one of them, and this domain is willing to further communicate with Shangguo, and please transfer the heart of your fist to the members of your country to know."

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Fu Shaolin pretended to be surprised, and then said as if he didn't care, "But it seems that there is no need to be so troublesome, I think that when Edo Castle is taken, the shogunate will definitely agree to the request of our dynasty to abolish the lockdown decree, and when the time comes, Ishinomaki will open the port, and your clan will naturally be able to trade with our dynasty."

The ghost moon was stagnant, and he didn't know why Fu Shaolin in front of him said this
