Selling the houses of the big island families that were occupied by the Northern Army was not an impromptu idea by Zeng Yi and the others, but a deliberate decision. Selling these houses would not only allow the four of them to make a fortune without any effort, but also help
With those guilds, they have found a foothold. More importantly, these guilds have spent money in Osaka. If they don't earn back this money, given the character of the players, they will never give up on Osaka easily. If the island country sends out
After the army passes through Osaka, it is estimated that these players will fight the islanders first without any action from the Northern Army.
Hundreds of thousands of players poured into Osaka, and the Northern Army immediately began to take action. The day after Zeng Yi and others auctioned the house, the Northern Army directly transferred 30,000 people from Osaka to support the front line.
The tens of thousands of troops passed through Kyoto to the Northern Army, which instantly increased to 60,000 to 70,000. The 60,000 to 70,000 elite Northern Army had basically no problem attacking the island nation of Kyoto.
The reason why the Northern Army is so anxious is that there is nothing that can be done about it. Originally, the Northern Army general wanted to see the situation of the players to see if they had the strength to defeat the islanders, but the reality did not give him time. Dear
The military governor's office received information. After the island country's daimyo, who were originally in civil war, stopped their offensive, they actually wanted to unite because the northern army was pointing its sword at Kyoto. Zeng Yi and others did not expect that an emperor with little real power would
It actually had such a big effect that it allowed those famous people to temporarily put aside their hatred and join forces to join forces with King Qin in Beijing!
The Northern Army is very proud, but it is not so proud that it can challenge the entire island country with one hundred thousand troops. The Northern Army must capture Kyoto before the island country's daimyo can reach a consensus.
The Northern Army's 60,000 to 70,000 troops were overwhelming. In one day, they broke through two fortresses and marched directly outside Kyoto. Tokugawa Ieyasu was shocked and did not expect that the Northern Army would suddenly increase its troops.
During the Kyoto crisis, all the big names in the island country were frightened by the Northern Army. At the same time, they also reached a consensus as quickly as possible. The time was too urgent. If these big names wanted to jointly send troops, they basically ran out of time. However, for Germany
As far as Tokugawa Ieyasu was concerned, he was very satisfied that he could reach a consensus that before expelling the Northern Army, daimyo from all over the country should not attack each other. As long as there were no threats from other daimyo, Tokugawa Ieyasu himself could gather a large army!
The ninjas under Tokugawa Ieyasu quickly investigated the situation of the Northern Army and found out that the reinforcements of the Northern Army were the defenders of Osaka Castle. Tokugawa Ieyasu was overjoyed and immediately had an idea.
Tokugawa Ieyasu gathered almost as many troops as he did and fought to Osaka City. Tokugawa Ieyasu naturally knew the importance of Osaka. If Osaka could be recaptured, it would cut off the Northern Army's retreat, and they might be able to surrender without a fight.
Soldiers of men!
Obviously, Tokugawa Ieyasu did not take the players seriously. With so many players entering Osaka, it is impossible for Tokugawa Ieyasu not to know about it but ignore the players. It can only be said that Tokugawa Ieyasu is unlucky and has not had much contact with the players.
He did not understand the strength of the players. Tokugawa Ieyasu sent his troops to attack Osaka, which had another meaning. Even if he failed to capture it, he could also surround Wei and save Zhao, so as to relieve the danger of Kyoto!
The defense of Kyoto is on the same level as Osaka. Although it is very easy for the Northern Army to attack Osaka, it has the fire support of the navy. Without the fire support, it will not be easy for the Northern Army to capture Kyoto.
things.
Kyoto was built by the island country after Chang'an and Luoyang. Although it was basically a miniaturized version, its defense functions were also modeled after Chang'an and Luoyang. The Northern Army knew the defenses of Chang'an and Luoyang quite well and knew how strong the defenses of Chang'an and Luoyang were.
For this reason, the Northern Army general put all the siege equipment carried by the Northern Army into the city at once when he increased his troops.
Just when the Northern Army launched an attack on the island nation of Kyoto, Tokugawa Ieyasu also led his army to Osaka. Tokugawa Ieyasu probably also summarized the reasons for the failure of the last attack on Osaka. In this attack, a hundred thousand troops were divided into two groups.
Osaka launched an attack on both wings, which indeed dispersed the navy's strike firepower.
Tokugawa Ieyasu, who thought his plan had succeeded, was still very proud, and his men even shouted that they would annihilate the 20,000 Northern Army defenders. However, when they launched the attack, they discovered that the main force they faced was not the Northern Army at all, but
Players they didn't pay attention to originally.
During the attack, Tokugawa Ieyasu found that the overall strength of the players was indeed inferior to that of the Northern Army. He was very happy at first. However, after several consecutive rounds of attacks, he was beyond his expectation. At the beginning, the players' firepower was not strong, and it seemed that they were about to be defeated.
We have conquered Osaka Castle, but every time we reach the wall, we can't go any further.
In hand-to-hand combat, the players dared to fight against the Northern Army, let alone the islanders with backward equipment. Looking at the players who seemed to be unable to kill, Tokugawa Ieyasu became more and more anxious. In the end, he could only pray that Kyoto could withstand the North.
The army's offensive is a game of time. Whoever can break through the attacking city first will mean the opponent's failure. When Tokugawa Ieyasu conquers Osaka, the Northern Army will definitely withdraw immediately in order to prevent its retreat from being cut off.
, to support Osaka, and once the Northern Army conquered Kyoto first, Tokugawa Ieyasu would be in trouble. Although the Emperor of the Island Country had no power, if the Northern Army threatened Tokugawa Ieyasu with the Emperor of the Island Country, Tokugawa Ieyasu really couldn't care less because of his righteousness.
The result was destined to disappoint Tokugawa Ieyasu. Under the cover of siege equipment, the Northern Army quickly attacked the Kyoto city wall. Although the Kyoto defenders resisted desperately, they really could not withstand the majestic and equipment-crushing Northern Army.
, in order to reverse the situation, the emperor of the island country even sent out jounin to protect himself, trying to assassinate the general of the Northern Army, but it still failed. The leader of the Northern Army was also protected by top-notch experts.
Soon the Northern Army invaded Kyoto, and the Kyoto defenders had no choice but to withdraw into the city. Relying on the buildings in the city, they wanted to use street fighting to hold back the Northern Army and wait for Tokugawa Ieyasu's rescue. If Tokugawa Ieyasu could lead one hundred thousand soldiers in a well-behaved manner,
A large army, supporting Kyoto, with several times the strength of the Northern Army, might be able to withstand the offensive of the Northern Army. However, Tokugawa Ieyasu was too greedy and wanted to encircle Wei and save Zhao. But now, due to the stubborn resistance of the players, not only is it impossible to encircle Wei and save Zhao, it is very possible
If you lose your troops and generals, you have to take advantage of Kyoto.
After the Northern Army invaded Kyoto, they fought very hard, basically advancing step by step. In order to prevent the emperor of the island country and the big families from running away, the Northern Army had to allocate part of its troops to block the four city gates.
