Chapter 729 is right in the middle

Yuji Riverside's plan went very smoothly.

The captive soldiers who originally had different intentions, after this incident, their minds also faded.

Even a fool could see the situation.

If they do what Yuji Kawabe asks, then their fate will definitely not be good.

Don't say that Yuji Kawabe won't let them go, and those companions who have already done this before won't let them go.

Moreover, those companions will be even more ruthless.

The Japanese still understand their own nature.

After everything was done, Zhao Hongyu smiled with satisfaction.

This time, even if these captives were not satisfied, they had no way out.

What they have done has made them have to follow themselves.

Even if they wanted to surrender, the crusading army wouldn't give them a chance, as long as they weren't fools.

And at the head of Osaka Castle, the performances of these captive soldiers also caused chaos on the side of the crusading army.

They don't know if these guys in Osaka Castle are crazy.

He would say something like that, and he would say it conclusively.

Moreover, those people seem to be still widows.

I'm going to go.

What is this rhythm?

The soldiers of the crusading army were a little confused.

Ishida was on the verge of vomiting blood, and he felt that something was wrong with the eyes of the soldiers around him looking at him.

It's like I'm really doing those things every day, as those guys in Osaka Castle say.

Although he admits that he has two small surnames, from time to time he will explode their chrysanthemums.

But but, but, on the Wa country, there are many daimyo feudal lords or people with limited money who do not do this.

I can't do anything by myself.

In addition to this. Otherwise, I'm not as unbearable as those people in Osaka Castle say.

What do you like to be exploded, and you will let your wife and concubine mess up or something, this is completely nonsense.

However, he can't explain all this to the people around him, because the more he explains it, the more people will be worried.

I'm angry!

The enemy is simply too nasty.

Even if the two armies are facing each other, they can't be so bad.

Although Ishida was angry, he still suppressed the anger in his heart.

And, those people in Osaka Castle. It's not just about yourself.

He also said that the wind squire, and other people who did not come here, even his brother, the shogun Ishida Hiroshi, did not let go.

I can't be fooled, I'm going to keep my mood.

These guys must be trying to provoke me and make me lose my mind and make some bad decisions.

Lao Tzu will not be fooled!

Hum!

Let you be in trouble for a while, and see what you do when you have no food and are hungry and unable to speak.

When that time comes, I'll attack again, capture them all, and break them to pieces.

Of course. Especially those who said something inconsetrical in Osaka Castle.

I won't let them have a good time.

Ishida was very wise not to get carried away by his anger.

Because, if he launches an attack on Osaka Castle now. It's really very wrong.

Let's not talk about whether they can rush to Osaka Castle or not, but the moat outside Osaka Castle can cost him a lot of effort and energy.

And Zhao Hongyu and they are not vegetarians, under the salvo of sixteen artillery pieces on the city. It will definitely make the crusaders enjoy it.

There are many advantages in field battles, but Zhao Hongyu relies on the defense of Osaka Castle to fight defensive battles, which does not necessarily mean that you have more people.

On the crusade side. No one did anything drastic because of the insults on his side, which made Zhao Hongyu a little disappointed.

Originally, he couldn't help but launch a charge after being insulted by his side because of the enemy.

But he never imagined that the enemy would endure it.

This was very unexpected by Zhao Hongyu.

It doesn't matter, though.

Anyway, if you don't attack, you're in his hands.

Since you want to besiege the city, then let you besiege it.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhao Hongyu pondered that he could save some money by himself and cultivate some more genetic soldiers to increase the strength of his side.

As long as there are enough troops, then Zhao Hongyu is still afraid of a fart.

The crusading army now has almost 40,000 people, which seems to be ten times more than the number of troops on Zhao Hongyu's side.

If it were ordinary people, they would definitely think that Zhao Hongyu and they had no chance.

However, Zhao Hongyu is very confident that he can deal with this crisis.

It can even inflict heavy damage on the crusading army.

"Yuji, you have to worry a little more. The enemy seems to be not going to attack the city for a while, and they may think that we don't have much food, so they want to besiege the city until we run out of food. ”

The enemy's plan Zhao Hongyu also judged it.

Anyone with a brain can see this.

This approach of the crusading army is not very clever.

If it is aimed at the general public, it is very effective.

It's just that Zhao Hongyu is not an ordinary person.

Besides, if it's against someone else, then no one will be stationed in Osaka Castle.

Yuji Kawabe ordered his deputy to lead the already somewhat discouraged captives to leave Zhao Hongyu's side and arrange for them to be stationed at the head of the city.

At this moment, after listening to Zhao Hongyu's words, Yuji Riverside first looked sideways at the crusading army camp in the distance, and then turned around and nodded at Zhao Hongyu.

"Well, Your Highness, your judgment is very correct, and it seems that the enemy really has such intentions. Otherwise, they would have charged Osaka Castle by now, or they would have come to fill the moat. ”

Regarding Zhao Hongyu's judgment, Yuji Kawabe is still very much in favor.

He also saw the plans of the crusading army.

"However, Your Highness, we can't be careless. Although the crusaders will not have much military action in the next few days, I can guarantee that their harassment of us will not stop, and they will come to fill the moat before we run out of food. ”

Yuji Kawabe spoke his own judgment.

Zhao Hongyu heard this. I thought about it.

He felt that Yuji Kawabe was right, and although the crusading army would not launch a full-scale attack on Osaka Castle, the harassment would definitely not be less.

The reason is simple, harassing Osaka Castle can make them exhausted and unable to rest.

At the same time, it is impossible for the crusading army to really run out of things until they run out of food.

At the very least, they had to fill in the moat.

The moat is not large, but it will take some time to fill it in.

In this way, wait until the moat is filled. When the conditions were created for the attack on Osaka Castle, it is estimated that the food in Osaka Castle will be almost exhausted.

When the time comes, the crusading army will rest for two or three days and launch an attack on Osaka Castle in one go, and Osaka Castle will not have the strength to fight back at all.

Normally, any commander with a little brains would do this.

Yuji Riverbe's words made Zhao Hongyu immediately think of these questions.

However, after Zhao Hongyu knew this, he was not too nervous.

"Oh. Since they want to harass, let them harass. The distance that the bow and arrow can shoot is one hundred and fifty paces, and they are still under the city, so it is estimated that there must be scattering. So this accuracy will definitely fall. And the muskets used by the soldiers under my command have a firing distance of 300 paces, which is more than double that of the opposing archers, hehe. When the time comes, let's shoot each other and see who suffers. ”

If the crusading army wants to harass them, Zhao Hongyu will not endure it like this.

And your musket shoots twice as far as the archers. At the same time, relying on the defense of Osaka Castle, no matter how you look at it, it has an advantage over the crusading army.

Yuji Kawabe wasn't too worried about that. He knows that the artillery is powerful.

If the crusaders sent archers to harass them, the artillery at the head of the city would definitely make them look good, and it would not be so easy for the enemy to take advantage of the opportunity to fill the moat.

As Zhao Hongyu said, the musketeers under his command are not vegetarians.

When the time comes, it is not certain who will suffer.

What's more, Zhao Hongyu also issued shields to everyone, so even if the crusading army sent archers, it would be impossible to inflict any effective damage on them.

For the shield issued by Zhao Hongyu, Yuji Kawabe has experimented.

This shield is very effective against bows and arrows, and it is completely impossible for those arrows to penetrate the shield.

Therefore, Yuji Kawabe is not worried about this at all.

However, Yuji Kawabe is full of worries about the food problem in the city.

"Your Highness, can the food in the city really guarantee our support for more than half a year?"

Yes, it is not difficult to garrison the city.

The biggest fear is that there is not enough food to eat.

Osaka Castle was very well defended, and the walls were high and thick.

The enemy wants to attack it, but it is not so easy to do it.

However, if there is not enough food to eat, then the defense of this Osaka Castle will not be able to be strong.

Because that would make the soldiers lose their fighting spirit and hope.

Man, if you're hungry, you can do anything.

Zhao Hongyu smiled: "Don't worry, three meals a day, meat and rice, you can definitely eat for half a year." ”

As soon as Zhao Hongyu's words fell, a group of people appeared in the distance, and they drove a donkey cart, and a few big wooden barrels were placed on the donkey cart and walked towards this side.

"It's time to eat! It's time to eat! ”

This is the Chinese genetic fire head army under the command of Zhao Hongyu.

Before you know it, it's noon.

At this point, it's time for lunch.

They drove the donkey cart and brought six large wooden barrels, four of which contained white rice.

The other two large wooden barrels, one is braised pork and the other is white radish soup with minced meat.

The Japanese soldiers, who were originally a little depressed, suddenly came to their senses when they saw the food...... Foodie! Zhao Hongyu pursed his lips and said in his heart. (To be continued......)
