On August 17, the Ming army conquered Osaka, but in fact, the two stages of war only took two days.

This once again proves that after entering the age of firearms, the city walls can no longer become the protection of the city.

The Ming army harvested a lot in Osaka Castle and seized a large amount of food and supplies left by the shogunate in Osaka Castle for anti-Ming.

Because Osaka Castle is the largest trading port between the two countries tomorrow, and the Tokugawa shogunate suddenly ordered the arrest of Ming merchants and seized food and supplies to supplement military supplies, a large amount of wealth has been accumulated in Osaka Castle, and now it has all become the spoils of the Ming army.

When the Ming army was searching the entire city, hundreds of Chinese and Japanese were found in Osaka, most of whom were staffed by the Daming Store in Osaka.

According to their accounts, the merchants were basically escorted by the Japanese army to Kyoto to be imprisoned, and several tough businessmen also angrily denounced the shogunate as being killed by the Japanese army in prison.

After being rescued, these people were grateful to the Ming army. Even the Japanese, who were regarded as "Japanese traitors" by the shogunate, hated the Tokugawa shogunate to the core, and expressed their willingness to be the leader party and be loyal to the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

This is not the first time that Zhu Cilang has accepted Japanese traitors, so he is used to it.

Most of these traitors were locals, and they were very familiar with Osaka's environment, folk customs, and society. They could provide great help to the Ming army's rule over Osaka Castle, and there was no reason not to use it.

Because the Ming army wanted to continue to go deep into Japan's hinterland to fight against the shogunate, in order to prevent accidents in the rear, Zhu Cixuan ordered the public notice and appointed several civil servants to leave behind to govern Osaka.

The Chinese Merchant House has been operating in Osaka for four or five years and has a considerable foundation and network of relationships. Under the instruction of Zhu Cixuan, the released merchants began to widely publicize in the city, claiming that the Ming Dynasty was to eliminate the evil Tokugawa shogunate and save the Japanese in dire straits!

The Jinyiwei also asked the merchants to identify the wealthy families in Osaka Castle with close ties with the Tokugawa Shogunate, and strictly controlled them, and occasionally put down their condoms and confiscated their homes.

The Ming army was powerful and unscrupulous. With the help of intelligence and Japanese traitors, the situation in Osaka Castle quickly stabilized, and the panicked Japanese people began to return home one after another to restore order of their lives.

On August 20, after three days of rest in Osaka, Zhu Cilang did not hesitate at all and ordered only two thousand men and injured soldiers to stay in Osaka, and the rest of the army continued to attack and march into Kyoto!

Kyoto is the oldest city in Japan. It has been designated as the capital of Japan since 794 AD and has always been the place where the Japanese emperor lives.

It was not until the repatriation of the Great Masahisa in the 19th century that Emperor Meiji moved the capital to Edo and changed it to Tokyo.

The purpose of Meiji's capital to Tokyo was similar to that of Emperor Xiaowen's capital to Luoyang. They both felt that the original capital was the base of feudal aristocratic forces, which was not conducive to reform. In addition, Xindu had a good geographical location and was conducive to economic development, so they chose to move and make great achievements.

Since the Ming army advanced to Kyoto in total was only more than 30,000, some Zanghua were worried about the lack of troops and suggested slowing down the attack on Kyoto.

Zhu Cixuan refused to accept it. He was also a person who fought old wars. Intuition and intelligence analysis told him that after Osaka fell, the little Japanese in Kyoto should have been scared.

After all, Osaka is less than a hundred miles away from Kyoto. According to the speed of the Ming army, even if the Moji arrives in three days, the Japanese are afraid that they will not even prepare for their mental preparation.

Facts have proved that Zhu Cilang's idea was correct. In the next two days, Ming Jun proved to others in practice what it means to be frightened!

First, he came to reinforce the Abe Tadaki tribe in Osaka. Nearly 10,000 people died just by crossing the river. When he learned that Osaka Castle failed, he immediately retreated 30 miles away, found a place he thought was more reliable, and blocked the Ming army from the north to Kyoto.

However, at noon on the first day of the Ming army heading north, both sides encountered each other and did not eat, so they started working.

Faced with the rapid loading of the Ming army's breech gun, the Japanese army holding the Flintlock Rumi gun in their hand was stunned and was beaten to an incompetent state.

The Ming army's ten rifle can shoot ten guns in one minute, and the Japanese army's bore gun can be up to three guns in a minute. It still uses the Ming army's four-section attack tactics, and even if it is replaced, it cannot be replaced!

Moreover, the Ming army's rifle was still rifled guns. In terms of range and accuracy, they beat the Firlock Lumi gun, which had been eliminated by the Ming army for two generations.

Tadao Abe originally planned to resist to the end, but when he saw the loss ratio of the battle, he immediately led his troops to run away without saying a word.

These subordinates are all samurai in his own territory. Once they are all sold out, then Tadao Abe will be nothing.

Forward general Li Yu and Abe Tadaki confronted each other on the Yodogawa for two days. He wanted to fight a good battle, but unexpectedly it was this ending, and his enthusiasm was deeply hit.

Li Yu refused to let go and commanded five thousand cavalry to chase and kill them all the way. His momentum was shocking, and he chased and beat the dogs in the water. He picked up eight thousand military achievements to kill the enemy for free, and then he stopped satisfied.

Even the old Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, Tadao Abe, was defeated. After receiving the news from the Japanese troops along the way, they took an orderly behavior - run!

Within one day, the Ming army stood for nearly fifty miles. The Japanese troops in Suita, Takashiro, Shimamoto and other places collapsed without fighting. Some troops did not even see the shadow of the Ming army and had run away completely.

Kyoto's portal Nagaoka Kyo was exposed to the Ming army.

Nagaoka Kyo once became the capital of Japan and moved to Kyoto in just ten years, which became the last portal of Kyoto.

After the Japanese army retreated along the way, most of them retreated here, commanded by Tadaki Abe, and seemed to want to fight with the Ming army here to stop them from invading Kyoto.

Li Yu led the 5,000 vanguard troops to Nagaoka Kyo, and rested here for a long time to wait for the main army behind him.

Suddenly, he saw the familiar Japanese general flag - Abe Tadakibu.

Li Yu immediately couldn't wait and rushed away without hesitation.

Nagaoka Kyo is not a strong city, it is just a small and broken city with pleasant scenery. The only thing that attracts attention is that there are many Japanese soldiers nearby.

Li Yu didn't take these little Japanese seriously from the bottom of his heart, and regarded them as lambs to be slaughtered. Naturally, the more the better.

However, when he rushed into the Japanese camp, he realized something was wrong. There seemed to be a lot of lambs around him!

There are more than a lot of Japanese troops in Nagaoka Kyo? The number of Japanese troops gathered here has reached 80,000!

Li Yu kept quarreling, killing thousands of people, but refused to give up and insisted on chasing them to death, but something happened to chase them.

Twenty miles behind Nagaoka Kyo is Kyoto, and it is its own base camp, with tens of thousands of people. It is too much to chase and kill everyone with thousands of people!

As he recovered, Tadao Abe began to stabilize his position and gathered the people around him to find a place.
