Tokugawa Kayo didn't understand, and neither did Kawabe Yuji.
None of the Japanese who had taken refuge under Zhao Hongyu understood this.
If they were surrounded like this, their morale would have been gone long ago.
However, under Zhao Hongyu's command, their morale not only did not decrease, but also remained very stable.
Even, no one thought that they would be defeated by the outside crusade.
Such confidence is very unreasonable.
Zhao Hongyu didn¡¯t bother to explain this to them.
Because of the more than 3,000 genetic people in Osaka City, they have confidence.
So, this will affect other people.
For example, people like Mrs. Wang and Liu Dashen, as well as the former Osaka captive soldiers who came over, and Tokugawa Kayo and others.
If they can¡¯t figure this out, they¡¯ll never understand it.
On the faces of those genetic people, there is no trace of hesitation, helplessness, fear and fear about the future.
On their faces, all you see is confidence, confidence in victory.
Furthermore, genetic people¡¯s self-confidence also affects other people.
Therefore, the morale of the soldiers in Osaka Castle has remained in such a high state.
Of course, five meals a day is also a reason.
Because this shows that there is enough food in Osaka City for them to resist the attack of the crusade here.
Since there is no problem with food and there are sufficient troops in the city, there is nothing 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 battles with fewer troops than Zhao Hongyu, but with more troops than the conquering army.
¡°Besides, Zhao Hongyu and the others are not defending Osaka Castle.
Because they are waiting for an opportunity.
You know, Zhao Hongyu has another preparation, and that is Emma and Sara who are heading to the Edo area.
As long as the legions attacking the Edo area succeed, the siege of Osaka Castle here will definitely be lifted.
What Zhao Hongyu is waiting for is the good news from Edo.
at this time. Zhao Hongyu is still staying at the northern wall of Osaka Castle.
At the crusade camp opposite, torches have been lit. Unfortunately, the sky has become dark and the visibility is a bit low, so it is impossible for Zhao Hongyu to see as clearly as during the day.
However, the noise from the opposite side kept coming, which made people very upset.
"Let everyone get ready, the enemy's attack has begun again."
As a shout sounded from the opposite side, Peng Peng's voice rang out.
Zhao Hongyu knew that the enemy had begun another charge.
"Attention, artillerymen, prepare. Fire freely!"
Because the sky is too dark, it is impossible for artillery to wait until the enemy enters range before firing as it does during the day.
Therefore, during night battles, artillerymen can fire at the enemy based on their own personal judgment.
It would be nice if there were flares.
Zhao Hongyu thought secretly in his heart when he looked at the artillerymen who were busy at the top of the city.
"It's a pity that Chen Zhenbang can't get flares. Zhao Hongyu has already discussed this with him.
Since Chen Zhenbang can¡¯t get it. Zhao Hongyu had no choice.
After all, if Chen Zhenbang has no way to get these products, he can only buy them from the system.
But. If you want to buy from the system, you must invest in research and development.
¡° But that thing is a scam. Zhao Hongyu doesn¡¯t have that much spare money to invest now, so it¡¯s normal that flares can¡¯t be bought.
As the cannonballs fell one by one. At the moment of the explosion, the surroundings were illuminated, and Zhao Hongyu could see some of the enemy's conditions.
After seven days of siege, the crusade has become smarter now.
When they meet again. Instead of the crowded charge formation, a more dispersed charge formation was adopted.
It seems that war is indeed a way to make human progress.
It¡¯s just that this method is more bloody.
Although the troops in the charge were relatively dispersed, they still suffered heavy losses under the intensive artillery attack.
But without the orders of the generals, the soldiers of these crusade armies could onlyHe held his scalp and continued to rush forward. Low-level soldiers like them are nothing more than cannon fodder and human shields in the eyes of high-level generals, or even some cold numbers.
No one cares what they think.
The expeditionary army didn't care, and Zhao Hongyu didn't care even more.
Just like during the day, a small number of the crusaders stopped charging when they reached the edge of the moat. The next step was the muskets from the top of Osaka City, sending them into Abi Hell.
Over the past seven days, this kind of thing has been repeated every day.
So much so that there were layers of corpses piled up beside the moat.
The first wave of offensive has been resolved. Judging from the character of the commander of the crusade, there will be another attack in a while.
Isn¡¯t it always like this these days?
The opponent is really blind when they want to use fatigue tactics.
The battle at the North Gate has ended. The other three directions were also attacked at the same time, but the battle has almost come to an end.
Except for some sporadic gunshots, the slogans shouted by the Japanese when they charged no longer sounded.
The Crusade Army is very interesting. When they attack, they basically will not attack in one direction alone, but will attack in four directions at the same time.
In this way, in addition to the dispersion of troops, it will also cause a lot of battle damage.
Just like just now, at least three to four hundred soldiers of the expeditionary army were killed at the north gate. If so many soldiers were killed in the other three directions, the total number would be more than a thousand.
The total number of the crusade was only more than 30,000, and the loss of more than 1,000 in one attack was very serious.
And in the past seven days, the combat losses of the crusade army have exceeded more than 10,000 people.
God knows if they can still support it.
"You don't want to be impregnable here in Osaka Castle, but the crusade army itself collapses first.
In this wave of attacks, no one on the North Gate side was injured, not even slightly injured.
The arrows shot in the darkness were all bounced away by the riot shield. The defensive power of this thing is still good.
"Your Highness, let's go. It's already night now. We can't help much by staying here." When this wave of attacks by the crusade ended, another little girl Hattori Chi who had been following Zhao Hongyu Crane spoke.
She has been following Zhao Hongyu for the past seven days to protect his safety.
After all, no one knows whether the crusade army will send ninjas to attack Zhao Hongyu.
Zhao Hongyu once again took a deep look at the opposing army and agreed, then turned around and walked downstairs.
Hattori Chizuru and Tokugawa Kayo quickly followed.
"A battle like this will continue for some time, but judging from the enemy's losses, it is not impossible for them to launch a large-scale battle. After all, they have suffered a lot of losses these days, haven't they."
After walking down the tower. Zhao Hongyu said to Hattori Chizuru and Tokugawa Kayo.
Yes, the crusade army has a total strength of more than 30,000 people. The soldiers lost in these days of battle cannot be replaced.
Therefore, they basically won¡¯t be able to continue with expensive tactics like siege on all sides.
When the time comes, you will definitely need to take a short break.
Taking advantage of this time, the soldiers in Osaka Castle can take a good rest.
Anyway, they relied on the thick and tall Osaka Castle wall, so they could defend it very easily.
On the other hand, the crusade army, as the active attacking party, would not be able to do so easily.
Hehe, actually the initiative and advantage. It's on my own side.
When Zhao Hongyu thought of this, the corners of his mouth curled up.
Hattori Chizuru didn¡¯t know much about these military matters, and she wasn¡¯t very interested, so she didn¡¯t answer.
¡° But Tokugawa Kayo was also very interested in it.
To know. Since joining Zhao Hongyu, the little girl has gradually matured.
Because she knew very well that after taking refuge in Zhao Hongyu, she would work hard for the revival of the Tokugawa family.
On her shoulder. But it¡¯s a very heavy burden.
In the past, she didn¡¯t have the 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 might become a feudal lord daimyo and command a land.
By that time, she might still be commanding the army and someThe enemy comes to fight.
Therefore, she must learn these methods of war to enrich herself.
"Your Highness, my subordinates also have this judgment. However, it is not a problem for Osaka Castle to be surrounded like this. You must know that there is no city in this world that cannot be conquered. I think Osaka Castle is the same."
After observing Zhao Hongyu¡¯s face, Tokugawa Kayo cautiously expressed his opinion.
It can be heard from her words that the little girl is obviously not interested in being surrounded by Osaka Castle. It is possible that she thinks it is time to break out.
According to common sense, Tokugawa Kayo¡¯s idea is not wrong.
After seven days of siege, the expeditionary force suffered heavy losses and there was a gap in its strength.
Especially the way they adopted the method of besieging the city on all sides, which stretched their front lines a lot.
If they were gathered together, they would certainly have an advantage in strength, but if the expeditionary army was divided into four, their strength advantage would not be so obvious.
If Zhao Hongyu and the others want to break through now, this is a very good time.
Sure enough, Tokugawa Kayo talked about this issue the next moment.
"Your Highness, the expeditionary army has suffered heavy losses and has not been replenished for the time being. Why don't we try our best to break out of the encirclement in one of the directions?"
After saying that, Tokugawa Kayo raised his head with 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 be a little starry.
"Wait! I'll wait for news from Edo Castle. Otherwise, it's impossible for us to break through. The battleships have been transferred away. Where can we go even if we break through."
Zhao Hongyu¡¯s words made it clear to Tokugawa Kayo how inappropriate her proposal was. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
