Former Shogun Tokugawa Yoshinobu moved to Osaka castle from Nijo castle after Ôsei Fukko December 1867. Satsuma needed to bring Tokugawa into war to destroy Bakufu power so they had Ronin terrorize Edo. 1868/1/2 Bakufu retainers left Osaka for Kyoto to subdue Satsuma. Bakufu Loyalist forces came to number about 10,000. They were opposed by pro-Imperial forces of about 3500 which were advancing upon Fushimi from the north. Most of these troops were from Satsuma, but contingents from Tosa and Choshu were also present.
