Seeing that the city was about to be broken, the Tokugawa shogunate's attack was very crazy. Everyone wanted to be the first to break into the city.

Not only the Japanese generals, but also the ordinary Japanese soldiers also knew that storming into the city and eliminating the Jianlu and rebels here would be the shogunate's first major victory against the Jianlu. The general will definitely reward you for your first contribution in this great victory!

Because of this, they no longer care about the loss of the transport ship being burned by a sneak attack. As long as these rebels can be destroyed and the final victory is achieved, the general will definitely not care!

Speaking of which, when they first heard that the transport ship was attacked by Jianlu, they were shocked and pale with fright. They quickly divided their troops and laid siege to the city while making defensive postures on the outside, thinking that Jianlu was about to attack. The result was not good, Jianlu just robbed or burned the transport ship, and then ran away.

This can be regarded as a shock. After this, the Tokugawa shogunate army quickly contacted the warships sent to Osaka to support them, and resumed patrolling the coastline to guard against giving any opportunities to the Japanese invaders. Since the fighter opportunity is not seized, it will not be given a second time.

From that day on, the Tokugawa shogunate army increased their siege efforts, regardless of losses, and today they will finally succeed.

The Japanese were short, hiding behind long shields, shouting, and rushed into the gap in the city wall madly. Behind them were Japanese spearmen. Their spear is actually very simple, just a bamboo pole with a pointed end. These are the cheapest ashigaru in Japan. Among them, only a few are fully armored and hold long swords and other iron weapons in their hands. These are the so-called samurai among the Japanese.

Behind them, there are Japanese musketeers, lined up in several rows just under the city wall, with gunshots ringing out and smoke filling the air. But after all, this is an island. If a sea breeze blows, the smoke will be very big. Disperse quickly.

Within the city wall, the defensive equipment had been exhausted, so they took the corpses of those who died in the city's civil war and threw them frantically at the gap, trying to block the gap. At this time, the Catholic army and Toyotomi Kunimatsu's troops in the city were basically exhausted, and even many of the captives were wounded. At this moment, they were wearing armor and fighting back with spears and swords.

The Jianlu people were tall and powerful, and with one strike of the sword, they would often cut the short Japanese people and their shields in half. But now, not only is Jianlu's physical strength almost exhausted, but more importantly, he has nothing to eat. He just eats human flesh. He is already dying, so his strength is naturally not as good as before. After a period of fighting, they were often stabbed to death by the spear behind the shield.

Duduo was at the rear. When he saw the Japanese slowly attacking, his eyes were red and he drove waves of his men to fight. Later, when there were no more troops to send, he roared at the injured Jianlu: "No one can survive when the Japanese invade. Kill them all!"

Upon hearing this, the injured Jianlu, as long as their injuries were relatively minor, stood up and prepared to return to the battlefield again. However, some of them may be too tired. After all, they were injured after fighting on the city wall for a long time. Their reaction was a little slow and they have not yet gotten up.

Seeing this, Duduo immediately walked over quickly, kicked him, and yelled sternly: "Are you afraid of death? Are any of our Qing warriors afraid of death? Get up here, get out of here!"

Hearing this, a trace of anger suddenly appeared on the faces of these injured Jianlu. If I were really afraid of death, then where did I get my injuries?

However, Duduo was their master after all, and it was engraved in their bones. This subconscious scowl quickly disappeared, and without any argument, he headed towards the city wall. Behind them, Duduo was still yelling and scolding: "We in the Qing Dynasty have never had time to escape. Even if we die, we have to die in front. I will take care of everything!"

When he said this, Duduo had obviously forgotten how he was ambushed by the Ming army when he was arrogantly escorting grain and grass from North Korea back to Liaodong. How he fled all the way to Seoul was a little shaken. It was a long time. He didn't come back to his senses within a short period of time.

Under the desperate fighting of the captives in the city, the Tokugawa shogunate army finally left corpses on the ground and was repelled again.

However, looking at the situation of the Japanese outside the city, they are obviously preparing for the next attack, and it seems that they must capture the city today.

Within the city wall, all the captives were so tired that they lay in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. They didn't care about anything else and took the time to catch their breath and rest.

No one was there to take care of the seriously wounded, they were left to fall to the ground and groan. Those Jianlu who were slightly injured were silently bandaging their wounds and dealing with them randomly.

Regardless of whether they were lightly or seriously injured or uninjured Jianlu, their faces basically showed despair. After all, they were all veterans who were accustomed to fighting, and they knew that the Tokugawa Shogunate's next attack would be unstoppable no matter what.

The cold sea breeze blew whistlingly, and after a while, the moaning of the seriously wounded man fell silent. There were also a few seriously injured Jianlu soldiers who were desperate and could not die for a while, but suffered even more. I don't know when, suddenly there was a "wuwu" sound. A seriously wounded Jianlu soldier, already in his thirties, was crying there, mixed with the shouts of "Ama, Er Niang".

Duduo led the guards over. He ignored the seriously injured and just shouted to encourage morale: "Those short guys can't stand it any longer. As long as we persist, reinforcements will arrive soon. Even if the emperor can abandon anyone, he will not You will abandon your master."

But obviously, at this moment, his words were good enough to deceive ghosts, but it was naturally not enough to deceive these veterans on the battlefield. No matter what he said, morale did not change at all.

Duduo's face was extremely gloomy, his eyes were red, and suddenly he heard the cry of the seriously wounded man and the cry of father and mother. He immediately turned around and walked towards the seriously wounded man.

Seeing this, those Jianlu who were lying down and resting turned their eyes to look at him. Perhaps the master would ask him what his last words were?

But who would have expected that after Duduo walked in front of the seriously wounded man, he suddenly drew his sword and slashed with the force, slashing each one. Immediately, the seriously wounded man's head left his body and blood spurted out.

After watching the man's head roll a few times and then stop in confusion, Duduo shouted coldly: "You should be damned if you dare to disturb the morale of our army!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and looked around, looking at his men who looked a little shocked, and shouted loudly: "The warriors of the Qing Dynasty can only die standing, not kneeling, and they will not be cowardly!"

After he said this, he did not get the same loud response as before. Except for his guards who responded, the other Jianlu all stared in silence and looked lifeless.

When Dodo saw it, he wanted to shout angrily, but at this moment, the thundering drums sounded outside the city again, and another attack by the Tokugawa shogunate army began again.

This time, the Japanese clearly felt that Jianlu's resistance was much weaker, and without wasting much time, a Japanese army finally invaded the city. Cheers rang out, and more Japanese soldiers broke out with extremely high fighting power. They attacked from different city walls and soon started fighting in the streets.

At this time, Dodo's face was pale. Seeing the Tokugawa shogunate's army advancing step by step in the street fighting, he shouted a little hysterically: "Hold on, hold on..."

But his words have no effect. At this moment, unless he masters the ability to resurrect the undead, his defeat is certain. Even if he later sent all his guards up, it was just a stone thrown into the sea, with almost no waves.

By evening, the fighting was basically over. The Tokugawa shogunate army was cleaning the battlefield, while their generals were looking down at the ruins on the top of the city. They were in a good mood, and they finally won a great victory. However, he was also a little regretful that at his current location, there was no trace of the Prince Jianlu. No one was seen alive, and no body was found dead. Without this person, the credit would be much less. Everyone in Osaka is waiting for this head!

From time to time, he roared, shouted, and issued death orders to find Duduo's person or body.

The sky was slowly getting dark, and the general of the Tokugawa shogunate army was furious when he suddenly heard cheers from the pile of countless corpses under the city wall. Soon after, a group of short Japanese escorted a tall man to the top of the city.

"General, we found a Jianlu Japanese who was pretending to be dead!" A small leader reported with a smile. The war has been going on so far, and only one living person has been captured, so he can't help but be unhappy.

The Japanese general glanced at the Jianlu. His face was covered with blood, but his body seemed uninjured. While he was doubting, he suddenly saw the Jianlu kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy: "Sir, have mercy on me. I am Duduo." , I can't die, I don't want to die, I am willing to surrender..."

When the Japanese general heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, but then he became a little confused. Aren't all the captives not afraid of death? Why is this man so afraid of death? He was a little unsure and quickly confirmed: "Are you really Prince Yu Duduo of Jianlu?"

Hearing this, Duduo nodded repeatedly, and took the initiative to wipe the blood on his face, showing a flattering smile and said: "I am Duduo, Duduo is me, it is absolutely true, I am willing to surrender, I surrender!"

Some people, no matter how cruel they are, once they feel that the same thing will happen to them, they don't even have the slightest courage. There are many such people in history. In the original history, Duduo was also a famous executioner, and countless people of the Ming Dynasty died in his hands. He has done a lot of massacres in the city. It can be said that he has committed many crimes.

On weekdays, people who rely on their good background to behave recklessly and lawlessly, even snatching away the Jianlu lackeys and Fan Wencheng's wife, who has been taken by Lingchi, are the people who enjoy life as much as they want. They can't escape and are caught by the Japanese. After that, thinking about everything he had done to the Japanese, he was afraid that these things would happen to him, so he immediately begged for mercy.

Sure enough, as he expected, seeing how spineless he was, he voluntarily surrendered, which made the general of the Tokugawa shogunate army very happy. He immediately treated him kindly and even had Tado's prince's clothes cleaned. Dry him, let him wear clothes, and then send someone to rush him to Osaka.

At this time, in Osaka, the fighting was no longer as intense as it was at the beginning. All the Japanese who could be captured had died under Osaka Castle. Those who want to attack the city by force will be the Allies. But at this time, Dorgon did not want to exhaust all the allies. After all, the purpose of his attack on Osaka was not to capture Osaka (of course, it would be best to capture it), but to cover Hauge's efforts to lead Dodo back to his home state.

But what happened next made him a little confused and didn't know what was going on.

In the beginning, things went smoothly and went according to plan. He stormed Osaka, attracting the attention of the Tokugawa shogunate army, and even many warships came to help, which obviously achieved the combat goal. And Hauge also boarded the ship and set off.

But later, I don’t know what happened, but Hauge seemed to have obtained more ships. After returning, he took away the remaining Japanese flag troops.

At the beginning, Dorgon thought that the fighting on Shikoku Island was fierce, and Hauge was worried that his troops would be damaged, so he took the Japanese flag to consume. With so many troops gone, no matter what, they should be able to escort Dodo back to the state soon, right?

However, he waited first, second, and third, and waited, but there was no news. I wanted to send people to the four countries to see the situation, but I didn't have any ships in hand. This made him helpless and at the same time a little anxious.

Now, after so many days, the war in Osaka is basically just a show. The Japanese warships in Osaka Port were coming and going and patrolling the strait. This situation made Dorgon very worried. He doesn't know what's going on in the Shikoku side, he doesn't know what's going on with Dodo, and he doesn't know what Hauge is doing.

All of this was beyond his imagination.

On the other hand, Ying Erdai comforted Dorgon from time to time, saying that if the emperor's nephew had so many troops, if they were intercepted by the Japanese at sea, they would definitely show off. But now, there is no movement, so naturally there is no accident at sea. And with so many troops, if they were on land, it would be impossible for them to be afraid of the Japanese.

The reason why there has been no news is that there must be something delayed, right? Or when there is news, maybe there will be great news!

After Dorgon heard this, he could only think so. This is the Japanese country, and Hauge has nowhere to escape even if he wants to escape. You know, there are all Ming troops in North Korea! Nowadays, Ming army warships are often seen even on Jiuzhou Road.

Hauge had killed so many nobles of the Ming Dynasty, so it was obviously impossible for him to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. He would be seeking death!

Thinking like this, he became curious again, what is going on in this situation now?

Things were beyond his control, which made him feel uneasy no matter what.

On this day, the cold wind was still howling, and Dorgon was handling things in the Chinese military tent. But suddenly, there was a noise outside, which made him, who was strict in running the army, couldn't help but hesitate. Just when he was about to issue an order, a personal guard almost stumbled in.
