"Bang!"

The first gunshot sounded, and a Ming soldier who was eating moon cakes was hit and fell to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, a series of gunfire sounded, and dozens of Ming soldiers were knocked down, with blood sprinkling on their bodies.

"There is an ambush! Everyone is lying down!"

The chiefs of the Ming army shouted desperately, and the soldiers were very quick to move, lying down on the spot, loading bullets while looking for the enemy's position, and fired back into the dense forest from time to time.

Fast response to an ambush is one of the ordinary training events of the Ming army. It is only because the Ming army's night is too powerful that the army rarely encounters ambush.

Faced with the sudden incident, Xu Qingshan was not panicked at all. Ping just ordered: "The 1st Brigade of the Royal First Division covers artillery and supplies, and the 2nd and 3rd Brigades encircled from both wings."

Soon, dozens of Wujiu Thunder Guns quickly put them on the ground and shot desperately at the Japanese figures in the dense forest.

This thing is a god blocking the killing gods, and the Buddha blocking the killing Buddhas. The little Japanese, who were originally excited to want the head of the Ming army, suddenly seemed to be possessed by evil spirits.

Under the suppression of powerful firepower, most people just waited and watched, fired a few shots without any matter, and let the leader shout, but they just stomped their feet on the spot and couldn't move forward.

Looking at the Ming army's reaction, if you are ambushed, you can still fight back in an orderly manner and take the initiative to attack.

At this time, he was ambushed behind the Japanese army in the dense forest, and suddenly remembered a sound of gunfire. It was obviously the third group of people.

Now, the fool understands what's going on. The Japanese general quickly ordered a breakout and retreat to Osaka Castle.

On Osaka Castle, Sakai Tadaki heard the dense gunshots from afar, and a smile appeared on his face.

Ming Kou finally said that this wave of shogunate troops would kill at least a few thousand of them, so that they would seriously injure their vitality and return to the Ming Dynasty!

The so-called peaceful negotiations were nothing more than a deceptive surrender arrangement arranged by Tadaki Sakai. In his opinion, the Ming army had not yet established a stable foothold and was not familiar with the place. The shogunate army could take advantage of the situation to lead the emperor into the trap and drain its troops.

As he listened, Tadaichi Sakai suddenly changed his face. He heard the trick from the gunshots. It seemed that the Ming army was suppressing the Japanese army on the battlefield?

The muskets used by the Ming and Japanese troops were different in calibers, and the gunshots produced were naturally different. Sakai Tadaki woke up as if he was in a dream and found that he had been counter-tricked by the Ming army!

Without saying a word, he immediately ordered the city gate to be closed and sent troops to defend strictly.

After such a fuss, the tens of Japanese soldiers who went out of the Yin people were considered unlucky and were beaten up by the Ming army and chased them all the way.

After the Japanese army lost thousands of bodies, they ran to the city of Osaka. However, no matter how they shouted, their comrades inside just didn't open the door.

They knew that they were sold by their timid compatriots!

Looking at the back, the 30,000 Ming army was advancing like a wall, no longer jokingly when they celebrated the festival before. All the soldiers became murderous and heavy like mountains.

The chaotic Japanese defeated soldiers were desperate, and some people were unable to bear the pressure and shot themselves directly.

More often than not, people were at the city with openness, put down their weapons in front of Tadaki Sakai, and raised their hands to surrender to the Ming army.

Sakai Tadakiko scolded Lianlian in anger. He wanted to save the thousands of soldiers, but he was afraid that the Ming army would follow him and rush in.

Now that my soldiers surrender to the enemy in person will undoubtedly greatly reduce the morale of the army defending the city.

Xu Qingshan rode his horse and smiled faintly when he saw this scene, indicating that he could accept these surrendered soldiers.

After all, when you are abroad, you must pay attention to international influence. You must not kill these prisoners in front of the enemy. If you rattle them for a moment, who would dare to surrender in the little Japanese?

When Sakai Tadaki saw this, he shouted at Xu Qingshan: "General of Ming Dynasty, you and I have made an appointment between the two countries to stop the army and truce and share peace. Why do you go back on your word and attack our Japanese welcome team?"

The Japanese general translator translated his words loudly.

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingshan said, "Shameless dog thief, make a comeback!"

The translator on the Ming army had a very loud voice. In order to prevent the Japanese from hearing it, they even made a loud horn and raised it to their mouths to shout.

Tadaichi Sakai didn't care. He and Xu Qingshan knew in their hearts that this false trick was no longer necessary, and they would be done with real swords and guns!

Seeing that the raid failed, Xu Qingshan was not discouraged. He carefully observed the city in front of him, and then ordered the attack to attack the city and only hit the south gate!

This scene made Tadaki Sakai confused. He didn't understand why the Ming army, who had lost its fighting opportunity, launched an attack. Do they think that this little man alone could conquer Osaka Castle?

As expected, the Ming army attacked less than half an hour and then hurriedly called out the gold and retreated.

Tadaki Sakai was confused throughout the whole process and didn't understand the operation of the Ming army commander, but no matter what, the battle was over and he did not suffer any losses.

But for Xu Qingshan, this is enough.

The war in Osaka Castle has ended, but the bloody battle at the Osaka Bay Fort has begun.

After returning to the camp, Xu Qingshan summoned the generals as he had done and deployed the battle.

The scale of this meeting was extremely large. Except for the chefs in the army, a few leaders who were doing odd jobs, dozens of generals under the Ming army basically had the entire road.

Basically, there are still some things that have not been there.

Those who were not present were Zhu Chenggong and other generals of the Ming Dynasty Royal Navy, and none of them came.

At the beginning of the meeting, Xu Qingshan informed him of his long-planned offensive plan and gave an explanation.

This raid on Osaka was not a failure to return, but was mainly to allow the navy to take the opportunity to capture the Osaka Fort and allow naval warships to head north along the entrance to the Inland River to the city of Osaka.

As early as yesterday, Xu Qingshan had secretly ordered Zhu Chenggong and Chen Ye to set off. When the Ming army and the Japanese army were fighting on land, they quickly attacked the Osaka Fort and controlled the Osaka Bay with all their might.

In order to prevent leaks and be unfavorable to combat, Xu Qingshan did not announce his plan to the generals, but only discussed with Li Yu and Zhu Chenggong that the one who copied the Japanese army's ambushing the rear was Li Yu's troops.

Everyone suddenly realized that they had previously commented on Xu Qingshan's praise for the coach's length, and they were also enlightened. It turned out that their level was not enough...

The top leaders of the Ming army knew that the Ming Dynasty's Ye Bushou and the Jinyiwei frequently invaded the Japanese army.

Similarly, the Japanese were not just a good meal. They sent a large number of spies to mingle into the Ming army, engaged in handling miscellaneous work, or bribing Ming army soldiers and secretly obtaining Ming army intelligence.

In the big tent, the generals were talking, and Xu Qingshan waved his hand and said, "This matter has been over. Next, the war we will carry out will be even more cruel!"

The generals stood up and listened quietly to Marshal Xu's arrangements.

Xu Qingshan raised his command pole and pointed to an Osaka Bay on the map, saying seriously: "Today, our Royal Navy fleet will block the Japanese naval exit on the sea, trap the Japanese navy in the port, and destroy them together with their forts!"

"Then the Marines will land at the Osaka Bay Fort. After the login is completed, they will assist us in launching a general attack on Osaka Castle!"

Zan Huachang nodded slightly. This damn Osaka Fort must be taken down, otherwise the Royal Navy would not be able to dock and provide effective support to the land. It would be useless to waste such a large fleet.

Xu Qingshan said in a deep voice: "The navy's mission is heavy, and we cannot be idle either. We must not let the Japanese army in Osaka Castle run out to support the Osaka Fort, and even one of them cannot be released!"

"Your Majesty gives us one month, which means fifteen days left. We must complete the entire Osaka Battle!"

Xu Qingshan looked around the generals and said, "Everyone, do you have any problems?"

The generals said in unison: "No problem!"

Xu Qingshan said: "Okay! Today our army will rest and set up a village outside the south of the city, and will start to attack the city tomorrow. Everyone must attack with all their might. If anyone winces, he will be killed immediately!"

"yes!"

Tadaki Sakai did not expect that he would ambush the surprise soldiers and wanted to attack the Ming army off guard. The head commander of the Ming army thought of them together, so he sent a surprise soldiers to attack the Osaka Fortress early on.
