Tokugawa Hidetada led the army to set up a camp outside Osaka Castle, and divided his forces to surround Osaka Castle, but he waited for a few days but still did not see Li You's arrival, which made him inevitably a little apprehensive in his heart, he was late in the Battle of Sekigahara last time, and now Li You did not arrive on time, is this retribution?

In the face of this fortified city, which is known as the most difficult to attack in the Japanese Kingdom, without the help of the Ming army's artillery, Tokugawa Hidetada really did not have absolute confidence; However, the daily consumption of the 150,000 army was an astronomical amount, and Tokugawa Hidetada could not wait here, so he commanded the army to take the lead in attacking the defensive castle "Sanada Maru" outside the city.

"Sanada Maru" is Sanada Yukimura carefully built, the defense is extremely high, and Sanada Yukimura also personally commanded the soldiers in the castle to guard, at the beginning of the east army to give a dismount, he personally led the army to attack, taking advantage of the Tokugawa army vanguard Maeda Toshitsune to attack when the defense was lax, Maeda Toshitsune thought that Sanada Yukimura would be in the fortress to defend steadily, but he did not expect him to dare to take the initiative to attack, caught off guard and lost for a while, the front army suffered heavy damage.

However, Sanada Yukimura's soldiers and horses were not too damaged, which made the Western Army feel the long-lost victory, and the bacteria made it suddenly shocked, and Ishida Mitsunari, who was watching the battle in Osaka Castle, also felt that it was a wise move to reuse Sanada Yukimura, and after accepting the praise of everyone, he took the opportunity to boost morale, declaring that after the death of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the Eastern Army was already unbearable, "All the military kings!" This battle is related to the survival of the world, and you should work hard like Sanada! ”

"Hey!" Mori Terumoto, Uesugi Keikatsu and many other Western Army daimyo Qi claimed that the battle made their minds that had been depressed for a long time since the Battle of Sekigahara re-energized, maybe there was really hope for the Western Army in this battle.

Led an army of 150,000 to attack, the first battle hit a full head, Tokugawa Hidetada couldn't help but be furious, and immediately urged Maeda Toshitsune to launch a second attack, this time he even used his secret weapon - a ninja from Iga, he sent ninjas to infiltrate the "Sanada Maru" to find the hidden Sanada army of Uchi, these neches immediately detonated the powder keg stored in the "Sanada Maru", causing chaos inside the fortress, Maeda Toshitsune took the opportunity to attack.

But Sanada Yukimura has long dealt with this, and Tokugawa Ieyasu has colluded with some people in the Western Army, which is something that Sanada Yukimura has known for a long time, how can he not be guarded against the traitor? He immediately commanded the army to quell the civil strife, and those Uio and Iga ninja were chopped into mashed meat by the Sanada army; When Maeda Toshitsune reached the "Sanada Maru", the iron artillery team hidden in the fortress immediately launched a salvo, and the Maeda army suffered a head-on attack, and for a time suffered heavy casualties and had to retreat again.

Just when Maeda Toshitsune attacked the "Sanada Maru", Tokugawa Hidetada also commanded the rest of the soldiers and horses to attack Osaka Castle, but unfortunately, even though they had many soldiers and horses, there was no way to face the moats and walls of Osaka Castle, and soldiers continued to die under the bows and arrows and iron cannons of the Western Army, and lost thousands of lives and still did not touch the edge of Osaka Castle.

"Haha, Osaka Castle built by Taiko-sama is really impregnable! In my opinion, even if Tokugawa Hidetada's army is doubled, there is nothing to be done! The victory in this battle made Ishida Mitsunari and others feel very good, and even Chacha and Toyotomi Hideyori, who were surrounded by them to watch the battle, were also greatly relieved, and felt that their safety was finally guaranteed.

"The reason why we were able to win today is because the Ming army did not arrive, and if we encounter the artillery of the Ming army, whether the walls of Osaka Castle can withstand it is still two words." Mao Li Huiyuan said with palpitations, when he was in Daheng City, the artillery fire of the Zheng family army left an indelible impression on him, and the laughter of many famous people came to an abrupt end, yes, this victory is indeed nothing, and the most powerful weapon of the Eastern Army has not yet appeared.

"It is stated that the general of the state intends to reach Osaka by sea." The Western Army also has its own news channels, and of course they know Li You's marching route, "The reason why they haven't arrived now is probably because they have encountered some problems at sea." ”

"If we don't inflict heavy losses on the Eastern Army before they arrive, I'm afraid this battle will not be easy to fight after they arrive." Sanada Masayuki said worriedly, and after speaking, he made a suggestion to Ishida Mitsunari, "I think that I can't continue to hold on, so I should look for an opportunity to take the initiative to inflict heavy losses on the Eastern Army, so as to weaken its strength and reduce the pressure in the future." ”

Ishida Mitsunari and others deliberated again and again, and felt that what Sanada Masayuki said was indeed reasonable, so they formulated a plan for an attack overnight, and sent a large army out of the city at dawn to attack the Tokugawa army; Tokugawa Hidetada's experience was still not as good as that of Tokugawa Ieyasu, he did not expect that the Western Army would dare to take the initiative to attack in the face of the disparity in strength, and he was in a hurry for a while; And Sanada Yukimura in "Sanada Maru" is also worthy of the name of "famous general", and immediately cooperated with friendly troops to enter the Tokugawa military camp.

Sakakihara Yasumasa and others did their best to repel the enemy, and when the Western Army retreated, they counted the casualties, the sneak attack brought tens of thousands of casualties to the Eastern Army, and several granaries were burned down by the Western Army, the Eastern Army can be described as heavy casualties, while the Western Army only paid the price of hundreds of people.

Several consecutive defeats were like a scoop of cold water poured on Tokugawa Hidetada's head, waking him up from the illusion of an easy victory, he had to temporarily stop the attack, clean up the mess and re-boost morale, and only after a lapse of three days did he relaunch the attack on Osaka Castle, this time the eastern army did not dare to be sloppy, Sakakihara Yasumasa and others led the army to deal with it carefully, step by step to Osaka Castle and "Sanada Maru" attack.

In this way, Sanada Yukimura's father and son did not have a good way, and the two sides had to fight hard, and for a while, both sides on the battlefield had such an idea: Osaka Castle seemed to be incarnated as Sekigahara a few months ago, like a huge millstone, constantly devouring the lives of soldiers on both sides.

After a long period of suffering, the Tokugawa army finally achieved certain results, they filled in a trench outside Osaka Castle, but there were three circles of moats outside Osaka Castle, and they had only completed a third of it; But for this achievement, they have paid tens of thousands of casualties, will it still be like this in the future?

In this case, after filling in all three moats and pulling out the "Sanada Maru", how many people will be left in the Eastern Army? Will this person still be able to take Osaka Castle?

As soon as he thought of these Tokugawa Hidetada, he was extremely eager for the arrival of the Ming army, and he set his eyes on the sea, how long will it be before the general of the kingdom arrives?
