At this time, Osaka Sannomaru was already in chaos because of Mano Yoribo's defection. Just as Hideho envisioned, after receiving Hideho's secret letter, Mano Yorihiro immediately contacted Nomura Yukinari of Ninomaru and Kinoshita Katsutoshi of Nishimaru. After the three discussed it, they decided that Mano Yorihiro would control his colleagues. On the west side of Sannomaru, Majima Mitsuyoshi and Nomura Yukinari blocked the Kyobashi entrance to prevent the most powerful Hideto Matsuura from going south. On the other hand, they attacked the Honmaru from the Giraku Bridge and restrained Morihisa Hayami and the troops guarding the Honmaru. After the two of them succeed, Ishida Mitsunari must mobilize Sagishima Takayoshi and Ito Nagami to suppress them. By then, Nishimaru, which is not much separated from Honmaru, will lose its guard, and Kinoshita Katsutoshi can take advantage of this. Opportunity to sneak into Honmaru, control Hideyori and Yodohime, and thus coerce the Seven Hands Group and the followers into submission. This plan seemed seamless, and at first it was as expected. Manano Yorihiro used the excuse of a change of guard to trick the junior Majima Mitsuyoshi into coming to Tenmanqiao, and when he was unprepared, he ordered elite samurai to detain him. At the same time, he sent someone to the west gate of Sannomaru, pretending that Majima Mitsuyoshi fell from his horse on the way and was seriously injured. He was fully responsible for the defense of the west side of Sannomaru. At the same time, Nomura Yukinari also quietly mobilized 600 troops to enter the Honmaru via the Kukiraku Bridge, occupying the two arrow oars on the north side of the Honmaru, and prepared for the next move. But what Mano and others did not expect was that Ishida Mitsunari, who learned about Mano Yorihiro and Nomura Yukinari's movements, did not directly order Sagishima Takayoshi and Ito Nagami to check. Instead, out of caution, he sent his retainers to Ximen. , ordered the deputy leader Otani Mitsushita to replace Majima Mitsuyoshi and lead his 2,000 troops to Ninomaru to strengthen the defense. The reason why Mitsunari Otani was not allowed to attack Mano Yoribo directly was that Mitsunari Ishida had his own considerations. On the one hand, he didn't know whether Majima Mitsuyoshi was really injured, and whether Mano Yorihiro really had a disloyal heart. After all, up to that time, Mano Yorihiro had not shown any obvious hostility; on the other hand, if Mano Yorihiro was If he really wants to rebel, Temman Bridge is already in his hands. Even if he defends the west gate, it will be useless. It is better to concentrate his forces. As long as Hideyori and Yodohime are in his hands, he will still have the moral advantage. In fact, compared to Mano Yorihiro, Nomura Yukinari, who occupies the back of Honmaru, is the biggest problem. Especially, Matsuura Hidehito is blocked north of Kyobashi and it is difficult to go south to support, which makes the situation of Honmaru more complicated. Ishida Mitsunari mobilized two thousand troops to enter Ninomaru, which was actually to check and balance Nomura Yukinari. Otani Koyasu¡¯s evacuation was completely beyond Mano Yoribo¡¯s expectations. He knew that if these two thousand people entered Ninomaru, Nomura Yukisei would have to face at least three groups of sieges, and the situation would be quite serious. Therefore, in addition to sending troops to occupy the west gate, he immediately mobilized a thousand people to march westward, following ¨tani Mitsui and rushing to Hayami Morihisa's conservative inner bridge, the main bridge connecting Sannomaru and Ninomaru. Manano Yoriba's move undoubtedly dispelled Ishida Mitsunari's illusions. He was full of regrets and bluntly said that he had improperly hired people, which led to extraneous problems. Masuda Nagamori and Nagasuki Masaie are currently in Honmaru, and only Maeda Genki is left beside Mitsunari. Faced with the current predicament, Maeda Genyi asked Ishida Mitsunari to immediately mobilize Ito Nagami and Sagishima Takayoshi to intercept. To the west of the Uchibashi, join forces with Hayami Morihisa and Otani Mitsui to attack Mano Yoriba, as long as he can be defeated. , Nomura Yukinari, who is surrounded by enemies on three sides, will not be in trouble. Regarding this plan, Ishida Mitsunari was hesitant. He always felt that starting a war in Osaka was disrespectful to Hideyoshi and Hideyori. Moreover, this was still an internal fight among the Seven Hands. If word spread, wouldn't it further weaken the already weak authority of the Toyotomi clan? Thinking of this, he said bluntly to Maeda Genki: "If there is another rebellion in Osaka Castle, what difference will there be between me and the Ohno traitor?" Iyo Mamoru is acting recklessly in Osaka Castle, which is disrespectful to Taige, the Young Master and Madam Yodo!" Maeda Genyi loudly urged. "What the monk said makes sense. If that's the case, please help me run a jade stoma. OthersI really can't believe it. Now I will immediately send Sagishima Takayoshi to the inner bridge, and I will definitely stop the rebels in Ninomaru." "Outside!" "At this point, only the poor monk has stepped forward." Maeda Gen said goodbye to Ishida Mitsunari, then walked outside the hall, got on the shoulder cart and walked towards the jade stoma. At this time, in the Honmaru, Nomura Yukinari lit the torch on the arrow oar and piled firewood around it to set up a bonfire, making the entire Giraku Bridge area burst into flames. This half of the red light looked particularly dazzling in the dark night. Seeing this scene, Jun Zongbo, who was stationed in Honmaru, immediately sent people to investigate. After learning that Nomura Yukinari entered Honmaru without permission and occupied many arrow oars, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, and immediately led 800 people to Gokurak Bridge to remove them. Except for the small number of soldiers guarding the Katemon and Otemon gates, there were only less than a hundred troops left in the honmaru to surround Yodohime and her son. "The one who also saw this dazzling red light was Kinoshita Katsutoshi who was getting ready to go in Nishinomaru. Obviously, what Nomura Yukinari did was to drive away the main force of Gun Soho.?Buy time for Kinoshita Katsutoshi to sneak into Honmaru. "How many troops are currently guarding Otemon?" Kinoshita Katsutoshi asked the envoy who had just returned from the investigation. "Sixty people at most. However, the army of Yustomy has already rushed to the inner bridge. If my lord is worried, you can enter the main pill through the hand gate of Yustomy. This will keep our army unscathed." Shi Fan replied. "Take the hand gate? What a joke!" Kinoshita Katsumi laughed and said, "Wouldn't it be a guilty conscience to go through the hand gate? I just want to lead my army into the city through the big hand gate. Those guys are nothing to worry about." Under the order, one hundred and sixty elite warriors of the Kinoshita family set out from the east gate of Seinomaru and advanced towards Honmaru Otemon. As for the Gaotaiyuan in the imperial palace, she obviously couldn't sleep at this time. With the help of the maid, she went to the Buddhist hall, knelt down and sat under the dim candlelight, and started her morning prayers as usual. At this moment, in addition to chanting sutras and praying, She was already helpless about everything that was happening around her. Facing the strong and murderous Kinoshita Army, the soldiers guarding Otemon were obviously panicked. Several Toyotomi clan warriors came to Kinoshita Katsutoshi and asked respectfully: "The major general is here with his troops at this time. I don't know why?" "Are you blind?!" Kinoshita Katsutoshi scolded angrily. : "The area around the Kukiraku Bridge is filled with flames. As a retainer of the Toyotomi clan, of course I should go and find out." "But there is an order from the Tonma. During special periods, Honmaru closes the city at night, and no one is allowed to enter or leave" The leading samurai was careful. He persuaded Kinoshita Katsutoshido. "Asshole!" As soon as the samurai finished speaking, Kinoshita Katshun kicked him over. Seeing the samurai fall to the ground, he even scolded him fiercely: "Do you know who I am? This time it's Fengkodaiin. I have ordered you to go into Honmaru to protect the young master and Mrs. Yodo, if you dare to stop them, you will be killed without mercy!"
