Tan Liguo nodded with a satisfied face and replied, "We need to carry out frontal defense. The wall is less than 1,000 miles long, and it is enough for the sought-after 500-knife shield hand …"
"Sometimes it’s not a good thing to have too many people. After all, the walls are so wide. The more people there are, the more it will affect the long-sought-after battlefield."
With that, Tan Liguo turned his attention to more than a hundred steps away, and the wall was shrouded in freedom.
After a short meditation, he analyzed with a dignified face: "I will understand the loyalist and ensure that the first round of attack will not affect the morale of the Ministry. The artillery preparation of the loyalist will be very long."
"And we probably men haven’t touched cold weapons for a long time, so we must seize this period to make men familiar with their weapons as soon as possible. Don’t leave the battlefield and lose their lives because they are not familiar with weapons …"
"Will command loyalist artillery fire after the horse transferred five hundred long sought-after three hundred knife shield hand three hundred bombers quickly boarded the wall to prepare for close combat and loyalist offensive forces …
"Is the general …"
Five or six hundred flower shells were fired at the city wall continuously, and the barrel of the dark red cannon had been beaten to emit hot air, when the roaring cannon finally stopped.
When the smoke clears, it is not so strong. The wall of Yangquan County has become a convex wall after being ravaged by hundreds of flower bombs.
Yeah, it’s just a convex wall …
The battlements were almost completely blown up because of the protection before and after the city walls.
Not only that, a hundred soldiers can get up from the wall by themselves at this moment, and even 20 people are less than others. Looking at the wall, even a complete body can’t be found.
The deputy commander of the leading department hurried to the city wall and gasped in shock after watching the tragic picture in front of him.
After the shock, I began to feel that the Lord Tan Li Guoying.
Because there is no battlements to cover the situation, if the soldiers are still fighting muskets with the loyalists according to the conventional style of play, the result will be as Tan Liguo predicted at the beginning, and the loyalists will have to face heavy losses if they shoot themselves with muskets.
Now, because the Ministry has given up firearms and changed to cold weapons to fight loyalists at close range, the battlements that have been blown to rubble have become less big …
Chapter four hundred and twenty-seven Lighten your enemy’s price
After taking a deep breath, he shouted at the men behind him who were also stunned by shock …
"Still stare blankly here? Horse wall ready to fight loyalist is coming … "
"Be sure to remember the wall and hide behind it. Don’t expose your body to the loyalist musketeers outside the city … a lead bullet can still kill you."
When more than 1000 soldiers were holding cold weapons and silently touching the city wall,
Outside the city, it has moved to less than 50 paces away from the city wall. Three thousand Beijing camp musketeers led the general to order that the musketeers be raised at the same time to light the matchlock and prepare to shoot at Chengtou.
Imagine that if the defenders didn’t give up the muskets, they still planned to shoot them at the loyalist outside the city.
The defenders with high expectations may have been attacked by 3,000 loyalist musketeers outside the city and beaten into a hornet’s nest by lead bullets just after the city walls showed their bodies and even the pike in the handshake was not lifted.
However, the sight of the wall was a dead silence, but it surprised everyone.
Ready to go, 3,000 loyalist musketeers have no walls to see what they want to shoot.
Faced with such a situation, a bold idea quickly came to the mind of the 3,000 loyalist musketeers.
"Don’t the defenders of the wall have just been blown up in the shelling …"
This idea just appeared in the Lord’s mind, and it became impossible to wave it away. To prove this speculation, two thousand men in charge of attacking knives and shields directly ordered the Lord to cross the musket array and approach the wall.
Of course, the cautious loyalist Lord did not go out with his strength at hand.
A musket array of 3,000 musketeers is still in place, aiming at Chengtou, ready to shoot.
Forty paces, two thousand knives, shields, hands have rushed to the wall, and when the last forty paces are left, they are aimed at the wall with three thousand muskets, but nothing happens …
Thirty steps still have no movement … Twenty steps still have no movement …
As loyalist commanders have begun to confirm their own judgment and prepare to send three thousand musketeers around them together, it is the last thing they want to see happen.
There was a dead silence, and Chengtou suddenly threw out hundreds of grenades that were smoking white smoke.
After drawing a beautiful arc, these black grenades fell directly into the hands of two thousand knives and shields like rain 3.
More than 3,000 pairs of shocked eyes watched these hand grenades explode.
Flames rose from the ground and quickly spread to the surrounding area. Black smoke exploded violently … Just like a death who opened his jaws one by one, he kept devouring the surrounding knife and shield hands, which was a fragile life.
Seeing the tragic picture in front of him, the Lord’s face suddenly became dim.
Having seen the great power of grenades, the Lord knows that the garrison should be equipped with enough grenades and send two thousand knives and shields by himself, and the army will be destroyed.
Of course, the commander-in-chief of the 5,000 Beijing battalion, the largest and most elite army, will not watch his department fall into a dangerous situation of passive beating.
Just after the first round of grenades thrown by Chengtou exploded, the evacuation order was reached by the Lord …
Two thousand knives, shields and defenders successfully returned to the offensive position after two rounds of Grenade attacks, leaving 1,200 people, which means that 5,000 loyalists lost almost 20% of their troops without even seeing the defenders.
Looking at the side of a face of mess to return to the Ministry of the Lord’s face directly turned red with anger.
At this time, the lieutenant suddenly said, "General, the rebels have grenades and so do we …"
"If we can rush to the position ten paces away from the wall, we can also throw grenades into Chengtou to let the rebels taste the power of the imperial grenades and let them feel the taste of being bombed …"
The Lord’s eyes lit up and his face was flushed with anger, and hope was rekindled.
In front of the lieutenant big affirmation to "you said we also have grenades … the horse sent grenades to the court to accompany us to come over … from five hundred musketeers out one equipped with two …"
"Knife and shield hands cover the five hundred musketeers and quickly approach the wall, and then throw these grenades to Chengtou in the shortest time … let Chengtou rebels have a taste of being bombed."
Soon a new round of loyalist attacks began.
On the surface, a quiet city wall tasted the benefits of grenades through just fighting. A case of soldiers greeted the loyalist’s second attack with a full face of expectation, prepared grenades and dealt a fatal blow to the loyalist outside the city.
However, this round of attacking loyalists seems to have become good.
Instead of rushing to the city wall, I held my shield high and held my broadsword. I rushed to the city wall in a very orderly way at a distance of three or four steps.
Facing the sudden change of loyalist, the defenders of Chengtou were shocked, but they didn’t take it seriously.
In their eyes, no matter how scattered the loyalist formation is, they will gather at the foot of the city wall. If they want to gather at the foot of the city wall and shake hands with themselves, grenades can exert their greatest power. When the time comes, sufficient grenades can still give a fatal blow to loyalists whose offensive formation changes outside the city.
However, they didn’t expect that it was their trusty grenades, and they were not only equipped with government troops outside the city, but also equipped with them.
And more than 1,000 defenders who stick to the wall are doomed to pay a very heavy price for their contempt for loyalists.
