The Japanese night attack ended in failure, and the surviving Japanese samurai retreated like a tidal wave, leaving corpses on the beach. The Chinese marines did not launch a pursuit, they were not familiar with Edo, and at night, the superiority of weapons could not be brought into play. If you pursue, you will be killed by the Japanese army. This time the Japanese army suffered heavy losses, and the operational purpose of the Chinese* army was achieved.

On the other hand, the shogunate was originally full of confidence in this night attack. However, the end result was still unbelievable. Tens of thousands of samurai attacked at night, but in the end they lost more than half of their troops. Especially the samurai who lost were almost all the elite of the elite. Such a loss made the shogunate a little broken.

After returning to the shogun's palace, the shogun's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. The successive defeats made him very angry, and if he continued like this, his army would be exhausted. When the time comes, what will be used to defend Edo and the whole of Japan? The Tokugawa family's 200-year reign in Japan was about to come to an end. And he became a sinner of the Tokugawa family.

The high-ranking officials of the shogunate also bowed their heads and did not say a word. Before the night attack began, they also reported a great deal of confidence in this attack. But what about in the end? It's still a failure. In addition, the weapons used by the Chinese* army on the battlefield are completely unseen before them. Let them be greatly shocked one by one, at the same time. Confidence has also taken a big hit.

"Everybody talks, what are we going to do now? By now, we have lost more than 10,000 people. And the losses we inflicted on the Chinese. But it's very limited. In the next battle, how should we defeat the Chinese? Tokugawa Iekei gasped and looked at the high-ranking officials of the shogunate. The combat power of the Chinese* army was so strong that he was terrified.

"General, once again I mention yì to abandon Edo. Fighting in Edo, the Chinese could get support from warships on the sea. In addition, there is convenient sea freight. Their supplies are also smooth. Under such conditions, it is very difficult for us to defeat the Chinese. If only the ships could be inland. On the one hand, we can not worry about being threatened by warships from the sea. On the other hand, the logistics supply lines of the Chinese will also be greatly expanded, which gives us great opportunities. The reason why the combat effectiveness of the Chinese* army is so strong. It's all about their weapons. And these weapons. It's all very ammo-consuming. Odai Yi Naoliang said.

Tokugawa Iekei nodded, if before this, he didn't want to give up Edo, then now, he had to give up Edo. Although Edo is the foundation of the Tokugawa family, if you continue to defend Edo, there is a high chance that all of them will die here. The Tokugawa family will also perish as a result. However, to abandon Edo. It really made Tokugawa Iekei feel very uncomfortable.

"General, we may be able to use Edo to fight another street fight with the Chinese. If it's possible. Maybe it can hit the Chinese hard! Another one said Ozawa Chenglin. The shogunate had three Wakanyo, and Matsushita Taro, who was previously in charge of the water division, had committed suicide by disembowelment because of the defeat of the water division. In tonight's night attack, if Yuji Yamamoto also suffered a crushing defeat, he will definitely not survive. Therefore, among the three Ifa years, only Ozawa Naririn remained, which made Ozawa Naririn's status in the shogunate also increase rapidly.

"Street fighting? Will this work? The weapons of the Chinese are too powerful. The old middle part was a little skeptical.

"Your Excellency, although the weapons of the Chinese are advanced, they will also be greatly limited in street battles, on the other hand, our samurai are very familiar with Edo and can use the terrain to deal with the Chinese. In this case, even if you can't defeat the Chinese, but inflict certain losses on them, there should be no problem. Ruonian sent Ozawa Chenglin said.

"Okay, let's do it according to Ozawa-kun's strategy!" Shogun Tokugawa Iekei said. If it can inflict huge losses on the Chinese* army with the help of Edo, it will undoubtedly be very advantageous for the next battle.

"Yes, General!" Ozawa Chenglin hurriedly said. He knew that if he could show good this time, his position in the shogunate would be completely solidified, and he would become one of the several giants under the shogun. In the past, Yuji Yamamoto was in the front, and Ozawa Chenglin was not less suppressed. Now it's finally good, Yuji Yamamoto is already unable to protect himself, and his chance to come out has finally come.

"In that case, let's get ready! Early tomorrow morning, we will evacuate Edo. Still, I swear, we'll be back one day. Tokugawa Iekei said. The retreat now is to be able to come back again in the future. Tokugawa Iekei believed that the Tokugawa family would not be defeated like this, and the final victory would definitely belong to them.

"We will definitely defeat the Chinese!" Other high-ranking officials of the shogunate also said one after another.

"General, Yuji Yamamoto bring!" At this time, several samurai escorted Yuji Yamamoto to the hall.

Tokugawa Iekei couldn't help frowning, the current Yuji Yamamoto, a series of dead gray, looks lost and depressed, and has completely lost his previous spirit. What made Tokugawa Iekei even more dissatisfied was that according to Viscount Yuji Yamamoto's assurance, if he failed, shouldn't he have apologized? However, why hasn't Yuji Yamamoto done it yet? Does he want to break his promise?

"Yamamoto-kun, it's time for you to fulfill your promise." Tokugawa Iekei said with a cold face. For this defeated general, who has repeatedly caused the shogunate to suffer heavy losses, he has already developed a disgust in his heart.

"General, please give me another chance. The main reason for this failure is that we did not expect that the weapons of the Chinese were too advanced, which completely exceeded my expectations. If I had been given another chance, I would have been able to defeat the Chinese! Yuji Yamamoto knelt in front of Tokugawa Iekei and pleaded. Obviously, he didn't want to die like this, and he wanted to fight again. It's just that Tokugawa Iekei won't give him another chance.

"Yamamoto-kun, that's what you said last time. But you have cost us a full 7,000 valiant warriors. If we give you another chance, how many innocent samurai will we kill this time? Tokugawa Iekei roared angrily. He was very dissatisfied with Yuji Yamamoto's behavior of breaking his promise, as a samurai, how could Yuji Yamamoto do this?

"General, please give me another chance! Trust me, I'll make it! Yuji Yamamoto hugged Tokugawa Iekei's thigh and pleaded bitterly.

The other high-ranking officials of the shogunate looked at Yuji Yamamoto with disdain. Yuji Yamamoto's cousin xiàn is really not like a samurai. How can a samurai be afraid of death? And this is still a promise he made himself.

Although, everyone knows very well that the reason why it is like this is entirely because Yuji Yamamoto is so unlucky, and every time he hits the iron plate of the Chinese * army. If you were a different shogun, the ending would not be much better. However, who told Yuji Yamamoto to want to make meritorious service so much? It's good now, not only did he not make meritorious contributions, but he accompanied himself.

"Yamamoto-kun, as a valiant samurai, show your courage! I think at the beginning, you were also a famous samurai in Kanto, why are you so timid now? Ruonian sent Ozawa Chenglin couldn't wait to jump out and scolded loudly.

A hint of regret flashed in Yuji Yamamoto's eyes. However, he really didn't want to die! When he was young, he was indeed a brave samurai, and with his extraordinary strength, he was valued by the previous generation of shoguns Tokugawa Ieki, and then he became the shogunate's Wakanian step by step. However, after being in a high position, Yuji Yamamoto has become accustomed to enjoying this rich life, and the spirit of the samurai has gradually forgotten. At the same time, he is also very nostalgic for this kind of life. If you die, you'll have nothing left.

"No, I'm not cowardly, I'm thinking about the Tokugawa family. In the future, the army fighting with the Chinese still needs me to command! Yuji Yamamoto said.

"No, Yamamoto-kun, I'll take your place. And, I'll do better than you do! Ozawa said with a smile.

"Yaga, you guy! You wish I was dead, you wanted to replace me, didn't you? You bastard, I'm going to kill you! Seeing the smile on Ozawa's face, Yuji Yamamoto immediately went crazy, and he rushed towards Ozawa Narirayashi quickly, wanting to teach Ozawa Narirayashi a lesson. However, these years of comfortable life have made Yuji Yamamoto full of fat, and his skills are far less agile than before. In such a situation, Ozawa Naribayashi dodged Yuji Yamamoto's attack lightly.

Tokugawa Iekei was even more angry when he saw such a situation. Now in the face of the invasion of the Chinese, it is precisely when unity is needed, and the occurrence of such a thing will undoubtedly have a great impact on morale.

"Come on, help Yamamoto-kun seppuku! It's an honor to be a samurai! Tokugawa Iekei said with a cold face, then turned around and left the hall.

Several samurai swarmed up, holding Yuji Yamamoto down and ripping him of his clothes.

"No, you guys, you can't do this to me!" Yuji Yamamoto struggled desperately, but it was useless. Several warriors who were like wolves and tigers stopped him to death. Since Yuji Yamamoto doesn't want to cut his own stomach, he has to let someone else help him! (To be continued......)
