The shogunate should've raised a decent army in a couple of days to at least hold off the westerners' advance around Hikone Castle, since Omi's eastern neighbors are Tokugawa strongholds, as I posted earlier.


I don’t wish to spoil too much, but that quick Omi victory? There was some Imperial hubris bias in there. When the next update comes, we’ll see the more balance or even Shogunal biased update. The Ii are not dead yet, and let’s just say a Pyrrhic victory has occurred.
 
Important announcement:


The battle of Omi and therefore battle of Mino will be invalidated. I have pondered and done further research and concluded that my original estimations were too unrealistic. Those two updates should be considered. I will also add a chapter in between that discusses why Shogun Yoshinobu does not surrender after the fall of Osaka castle ITTL.

I plan on making an update that discusses the Mito Rebellion of 1865, as though while it occurs three years before where the TL is now, it will matter a lot for Ryoma Sakamoto.


I also updated the "Sakhalin dispute" chapter.
