Kayo Tokugawa didn't understand, and neither did Yuji Kawabe.

These widows under Zhao Hongyu's command who took refuge in them all didn't understand.

If they had been surrounded like usual, their morale would have been gone long ago.

However, under Zhao Hongyu's command, their morale not only did not decrease, but remained very stable.

Even, no one thought that they would be defeated by the crusaders outside.

Such self-confidence is very unreasonable.

For these, Zhao Hongyu didn't bother to explain them to them.

Because of the more than 3,000 genetics in Osaka Castle, they have self-confidence.

So, that's what affects other people.

For example, the group of Wang Fuzi and Liu Dascar, as well as the former Osaka prisoners who took refuge, and Tokugawa Yoshiyo and them.

If they can't figure it out, they'll never understand it.

On the faces of those genetically people, there is not a trace of helplessness about the future, as well as trepidation and fear.

On their faces, you see only self-confidence, confidence in victory.

In turn, the self-confidence of genetic people also affects other people.

Therefore, the morale of the soldiers in Osaka Castle is kept so high.

Of course, five meals a day is also a reason.

This means that there is enough food in Osaka Castle to defend them against the raiders here.

Since there is no problem with food, and there are plenty of troops in the city, then what is there to be afraid of.

After all, urban defense operations and night battles are completely different.

In the history of China, there are many examples of fighting with fewer troops than Zhao Hongyu, but more confrontation than the crusading army.

Besides, Zhao Hongyu and they are not stubbornly defending Osaka Castle.

Because they're waiting for an opportunity.

You have to know that Zhao Hongyu has another preparation, that is, Emma and Sara in the Edo area.

As long as the army attacking the Edo area succeeds, the siege of Osaka Castle on this side will definitely be lifted.

Zhao Hongyu was waiting for the good news from the Edo side.

This time. Zhao Hongyu is still staying at the northern wall of Osaka Castle.

On the opposite side of the crusade camp, torches had already been lit, but unfortunately the sky was already dark and the visibility was a little low, so it was impossible for Zhao Hongyu to see clearly as he did during the day.

However, the noise on the other side kept coming, which made people very upset.

"Let's all get ready, the enemy attack has begun again."

As a shout rang out from the other side, Peng Peng's voice rang out.

Zhao Hongyu knew that the enemy had begun to charge again.

"All attention, gunners ready. Free launch! ”

Because it was too dark, it was impossible for the artillery to wait until the enemy was in range before firing it, as it was during the day.

Therefore, during the night battle, the artillerymen could fire and attack the enemy according to their own personal judgment.

If only there were flares.

When Zhao Hongyu looked at the constantly busy artillerymen at the head of the city, he secretly thought in his heart.

It's a pity that Chen Zhenbang couldn't get a flare, which Zhao Hongyu had already talked to the other party about.

Since Chen Zhenbang can't get it. Zhao Hongyu has nothing to do.

After all, if Chen Zhenbang can't get these goods, he can only buy them from the system.

But. If you want to buy from a system, you have to invest in research and development.

But that thing is a cheat thing, Zhao Hongyu doesn't have so much spare money to invest now, so it's normal that the flare can't be bought.

As the shells fell, one by one. At the moment of the explosion, the surroundings were illuminated, and Zhao Hongyu could see some of the enemy's situation.

After seven days of siege, the crusaders are now smarter.

When they reunited. It is no longer the crowded stormtrooping formation, but a more scattered charging queue.

It seems that war is indeed a way to make humanity progress.

It's just that this way is more bloody.

Although the rows of the crusading armies in the charge were scattered, they still suffered heavy losses under the dense artillery attack.

But without the orders of the generals, the soldiers of these crusading armies could only continue to rush forward. Low-level soldiers like them are just cannon fodder meat shields in the eyes of high-level generals, and even some cold numbers.

No one cares what they think.

The crusading army didn't care, and Zhao Hongyu didn't care even more.

As during the day, a small number of the crusaders rushed to the edge of the moat and stopped their charge, followed by the muskets of Osaka Castle, sending them into the Hell of Abi.

For seven days, this happened every day.

So much so, on the edge of the moat, there were layers of corpses.

The first wave of the offensive was resolved, and judging by the character of the crusading commander, there would be another attack after a while.

Isn't it all like this these days?

The other side wants to get tired tactics, and they are really blind.

The battle on the North Gate side was over, and the other three directions were attacked at the same time, but the battle was almost coming to an end.

Except for a few sporadic gunshots, the slogans shouted by the Japanese as they charged were no longer heard.

Raiders are interesting in that when they attack, they don't attack in one direction in one direction, but in four directions at the same time.

In this way, in addition to the dispersion of troops, there will also be a lot of battle damage.

Just like just now, at least three or four hundred crusading soldiers were killed on the North Gate side, and if the other three directions also killed so many, then the total would be more than a thousand.

The total number of crusaders was only more than 30,000 people, and the loss of more than 1,000 people in this attack was very serious.

Moreover, in the past seven days, the crusading army has suffered more than 10,000 battle losses.

God knows if they can support it.

Don't be impregnable here in Osaka Castle, but the crusaders themselves collapsed first.

In this wave of attack, no one was injured on the side of the north gate, not even anyone who was slightly injured.

The arrows shot in the dark were bounced off by the riot shield, and the defense of this thing was still good.

"Your Highness, let's go. It's night. It won't help us to stay here. When this wave of crusading army attacks ended, another little girl, Hattori Chizuru, who had been following Zhao Hongyu, opened her mouth.

In the past seven days, she has been by Zhao Hongyu's side to protect his safety.

After all, no one knew if the Lu Dao Crusade Army would send ninjas to attack Zhao Hongyu.

Zhao Hongyu once again took a deep look at the crusading army on the opposite side, and then turned around and walked downstairs.

Chizuru Hattori and Kayo Tokugawa hurriedly followed.

"Battles like this will continue for a while, but judging by the enemy's losses, it is not impossible for them to launch a large-scale battle, after all, their losses are huge these days, aren't they."

After walking down the tower. Zhao Hongyu said to Hattori Chizuru and Tokugawa Kayo.

Yes, the total strength of the crusading army is more than 30,000 people, and the soldiers who have been damaged in battle these days cannot be replenished.

Therefore, such a costly tactic as a siege from all sides, basically they will not be able to continue after a few more times.

At that time, you will definitely have to take a little rest.

At this time, the soldiers in Osaka Castle can take a good rest.

Anyway, they relied on the thick and tall walls of Osaka Castle, and they could defend it very easily.

On the other hand, the crusading army, which is the active attacking side, has no way to do it so easily.

Hehe, in fact, the initiative and advantage. It's on my side.

Zhao Hongyu thought of this, and the corners of his mouth curled.

Chizuru Hattori didn't know much about these military things, and she wasn't very interested, so she didn't answer.

But Tokugawa Kayo was also interested.

Know the way. Since taking refuge in Zhao Hongyu, the little girl has gradually matured.

Because she knows very well that after taking refuge in Zhao Hongyu, she will work hard for the revival of the Tokugawa family.

on her shoulders. But there is a heavy burden.

In the past, there was no opportunity to learn, but now that she has the opportunity, she will definitely learn these battle formation methods.

After all. If she behaves better, she may become a feudal lord and rule a land.

At that time, I wonder if she will still command the army and fight some enemies.

Therefore, she had to learn some of these methods of warfare to enrich herself.

"Your Highness, subordinates also have such judgments. However, it is never a problem for Osaka Castle to be surrounded like this, and I think Osaka Castle is the same. ”

After observing Zhao Hongyu's face, Tokugawa Kayo cautiously expressed his opinion.

From her words, it was clear that the little girl was very unhappy with the continued siege of Osaka Castle, and it was likely that she thought it was time to break through.

According to common sense, in fact, Tokugawa Kayo's idea is not wrong.

After seven days of siege, the crusading army suffered heavy losses and a gap in strength.

In particular, the way they besieged the city on all sides made their battle line open up quite a bit.

If they were gathered together, they certainly had an advantage in strength, but the crusading army was divided into four, which made their strength advantage not so obvious.

If Zhao Hongyu and they want to break through now, it is a very good time to break through at this time.

Sure enough, Tokugawa Kayo said this question the next moment.

"Your Highness, now that the crusading army has suffered a lot of losses, and the strength has not been replenished for the time being, why don't we go all out to break through in one of the directions."

After speaking, Tokugawa Kayo raised his head with big watery eyes and looked at Zhao Hongyu waiting for his answer.

Under the reflection of the firelight on both sides of the street, Tokugawa Kayo's eyes seemed to have a little starlight blooming.

"Wait! I'll wait for news from Edo Castle, otherwise we won't be able to break through. The battleships have been transferred, and even if we break through, where will we go? ”

Zhao Hongyu's words made Tokugawa Kayo clear how inappropriate her proposal was. (To be continued......)
