Chapter 1113: Brave
When Wu Nian came to Osaka Castle under the escort of Wang Gui. The castle town has been besieged and impassable.
Most of the people in the town ran away before the war.
The people who didn't run away were also taken away by the Han army.
The castle town is equivalent to an outer castle without walls and has no military role. The key is. Matsudaira Keitora, the world's number one military commander and one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Toyotomi, led 10,000 elite soldiers, including 5,000 samurai from the north, to defend the castle.
On a high hill outside the city.
Wu Nian took Wang Gui, Yasan Ya, Hojo Clan and others to look at Osaka Castle.
It is a huge castle that is both gorgeous and fortified. There is also a wide moat outside the city, and the river is brought in from the surrounding rivers.
"It's really a heroic city. It can delay the outnumbered 100,000 elite soldiers. Wu Nian retracted his gaze and said to the left and right.
Wang Gui raised his right hand, pinched his chin, and said, "It feels like we were guarding Beishan Fort back then. Only now we are the besiegers. ”
Ansan Cliff was silent.
Hojo Clan's attention was on Osaka Castle.
Wu Nian clasped his hands to his chest, lowered his head and groaned. Although the soldiers have come to the city, they are ashamed. He still hasn't decided whether to attack the city or bypass it.
After thinking for a while, Wu Nian said, "Let's keep the siege first, and watch the movements of Edo Castle and the daimyo of Higashifuso. ”
He was still reluctant to attack such a strong city.
"Yes." Everyone nodded in response. After looking at the city for a while, Wu Nian went down the mountain with everyone and returned to the barracks.
Wu Nian entered the big tent and saw Kyogoku Yukiri wearing a peony-colored kimono, sitting elegantly on a chair and drinking tea.
Seeing Wu Nian coming in, Kyogoku Yukiri stood up and bowed lightly to Wu Nian.
Wu Nian bowed to her, and then said to the guards outside the tent: "Command the army." The other party is Matsudaira Jinghu, the first in the world. Strengthen vigilance and not be careless. ”
"Yes." Ouchi's guard answered, turned around and went down.
Wu Nian came to the handsome seat and sat down, took out a map of Osaka Castle, spread it out on the desk, and looked down.
Kyogoku Yuki carried a steaming cup of tea, bent over the thin willow waist, and lightly placed it on the desk.
Wu Nian glanced up at her and thanked, "Thank you, princess." With that, he picked up the teacup and lifted the lid, blew lightly a few breaths, and then drank it in small sips.
Seeing this, Jingji Xueli did not disturb Wu Nian, and left the big tent lightly.
It's dusk. After Wu Nian had dinner, he washed up under the service of Ouchi's guards, put on his underwear, and entered the bed.
Matsudaira Keitor.
Before falling asleep, Wu Nian's mind was full of this man.
I don't know when, Wu Nian heard a shout of killing in his ears. He opened his eyes quickly and frowned for a moment.
South.
"Armor for the widow." Wu Nian lifted the futon and sat up, the temperature was cold at this time, he was only wearing underwear, and he had just come out of the warm quilt, feeling very cold.
Before Wu Nian gave the order, the Ouchi guards had already taken action. Before he could finish speaking, the Ouchi guards entered the inner tent with their armor and helped Wu Nian put on the armor in an orderly manner.
In the end, Wu Nian put on his helmet by himself, and after moving his body a little, he came to the outer tent and sat down on the handsome seat.
Inside the barracks. Wang Gui wore armor, rode a war horse, and under the protection of a team of personal soldiers, calmly commanded the Ouchi guards to strengthen the defense.
Inside the big tent. Wu Nian sat for a while, and then saw that Kyogoku Yukiri and the Hojo clan entered the big tent almost at the same time.
Wu Nian waved his hand at them, signaling that there was no need to salute.
After Kyogoku Yuki sat down, Wu Nian smiled at her and said, "Don't worry, princess, there are only 10,000 people in the city, including 5,000 samurai from the north. ”
"The Han army had 150,000 households, each of which set up a camp to strengthen its vigilance. He led his troops to attack at night, and he couldn't get a bargain. ”
"Even if he had breached one camp, there would still be fourteen strongholds. The Han army will not collapse. ”
After a pause, Wu Nian's eyes showed a gleam in his eyes, and he said with a smile: "It's a pity that he didn't attack the camp of the widows, otherwise he would have no return." ”
Kyogoku Yuki bowed slightly, her delicate red lips opened, revealing her snow-white teeth, and said, "Thank you for your care." ”
After a pause, Jingji Yukiri smiled like a flower and said, "It's just that the Han army is invincible." The concubine was not worried. ”
As she spoke, she raised her snow-white wrists, her delicate little hands covered her red lips, and her eyes were full of smiles.
Worried?
But there is no such thing. She is full of confidence in the Han army.
Wu Nian nodded, calmly waiting for the news. The Hojo clan is very eye-catching, and when he saw Kyogoku Yukiri and Wu Nian talking, he acted as a little transparent on the side.
After a while, a Ouchi guard walked in from outside, bent down with a solemn face and reported, "King." The news came. Maeda Tadamichi was defeated by Matsudaira Keitor. ”
"At present, the men and horses have been defeated, there are countless dead and wounded, and the camp is burning."
Wu Nian's eyes froze, and his face showed a look of astonishment, and then he stood up and said angrily: "Maeda Tadamichi, it's really incompetent. The widow had already made him more vigilant. ”
After thinking for a while, Wu Nian said to the Ouchi guard: "Explore again." Let the rest of the generals guard the camp and not send troops to save them. lest it cause chaos in the whole army. ”
"Yes." Ouchi's guard answered, turned around and went down.
"Whew." Wu Nian took a deep breath and sat back, his face much more serious.
Kyogoku Yukiri lowered her head slightly, and the green silk fell from her ears, looking very well-behaved.
The Hojo clan hesitated for a moment before he spoke, "The Great King." I thought. It could be soldiers and horses outside the city. ”
"Soldiers and horses outside the city?!!!" Wu Nian raised his eyebrows, revealing a look of surprise.
"Hmm." Hojo Clan Masaa snorted, looking determined.
Wu Nian pinched his chin, groaned, and then bowed slightly. That makes sense.
The Han army of 150,000 households surrounded Osaka Castle tightly. Matsudaira Jinghu sat on a fortified city, and food and military supplies were piled up.
There were only 10,000 soldiers and horses.
According to common sense, it should be held in the city.
Maeda Tadamichi's ability is actually good, and he ordered to strengthen the guard. The opponent is Matsudaira Keiho. Maeda Tadadao should not dare to relax.
But if Matsudaira Jinghu was ambushed outside the city beforehand.
Maeda Tadamichi's defense focused on the sneak attack of the men and horses in the city. And ignore the sneak attack of people outside the city.
Then it all makes sense.
But here's the thing.
Matsudaira Jinghu had only 10,000 men, and he emptied the city and ambushed troops outside the city.
Led his troops to break through Maeda Tadamichi's camp.
That's how bold it is.
Brave and good at fighting.
"It deserves to be the best in the world. Pretty powerful. Wu Nian smiled slightly.
Kyogoku Yukiri and Hojo Clan Masato nodded in unison, it is indeed very powerful.
