In 1868 the Boshin War broke out between the Shogun and the forces supporting the restoration of the Mikado's authority. The foreign powers in Japan, including France, declared neutrality in the conflict. Cazeneuve therefore resigned from the French army and entered the service of the Shogun, along with Jules Brunet. He was commissioned as a captain. Cazeneuve fought in the Battle of Hakodate, in command one of the four Shogunate regiments. He was severely wounded in the battle, but was brought back to Yokohama at the end of the conflict and transported to France.
