315 Near-miss
。 A total of more than 10,000 people in the two battalions in the rear were thrown into the attack sequence, and the fresh force of more than 10,000 people was thrown into the attack, and the pressure on the city wall increased greatly, and the number of defenders was like sand in an hourglass, drastically reduced.
"Artillery, keep firing at the embankment, stop the input of the enemy's follow-up troops...... "Gunpowder can no longer be saved, otherwise the walls are in danger of being breached at any time, I give a loud order." After yesterday's rest, our army was supplied with a certain amount of gunpowder, and in addition to the gunpowder that was dried the day before yesterday because it was not used because of yesterday's truce, our army's gunpowder was relatively sufficient, and it could be "squandered" once.
The gunners, who had always been restrained, were overjoyed when they heard my order, and one by one they spat fiercely, rolled up their cuffs, and got busy scolding, loading, planting fuses, aiming, and ignition! The action is done in one go and is extremely fast.
A rain of bullets has made the Seven Dams a hellish road, and if you want to pass through it, you must first pin your head to the waistband of your pants, and then pin your hopes on God...... I have to say, it's sad.
Although the rear forces of the rebels were temporarily unable to quickly and massively penetrate the moat, there were still nearly 10,000 rebels under the city, and the ratio of their numbers to our army was still three to one and four to one, and the situation of our army was still dangerous.
As time passed, the number of defenders became smaller and smaller, and loopholes began to appear in the defenses, and from time to time rebels climbed the city walls, starting with a few sporadic men, and soon growing to dozens, dozens, hundreds......
At the beginning of the Shen period, a rebel army of more than 300 people finally captured the city wall that was more than 30 zhang long.
Under the city wall, when the rebels saw the capture of a long section of the city wall, they couldn't help but scream one by one. The generals in charge of the front-line command immediately organized men to set up twenty or thirty ladders on this section of the city wall, intending to transport troops up, consolidate the occupied territory, and then encroach on the left and right, and finally occupy the entire city wall. He also understood that our army would not sit idly by and watch these people gain a firm foothold, and would definitely attack, hoping to solve the troops who were ascending the city as quickly as possible, in order to seize time with our army, he commanded the army to ascend the city at the same time, and transferred more than 1,000 archers and bird gunners to guard, in order to suppress the counterattack of our army, reduce the pressure on his own soldiers on the city wall, and buy time for the soldiers who were ascending the city.
Of course, I won't let them gain a foothold, and said loudly: "Cai Mingbo, you will command!" Wei Dayong, organize the manpower and follow me to destroy this group of rebels! ”
"Yes!" Cai Mingbo responded firmly, one word, but it is an oath and a guarantee! He told me in just one word that he would not let the rebels take possession of the walls until I returned to command, unless he died in battle!
Wei Dayong soon organized a team of three or four hundred people, led by more than fifty brothers of the Wuyi League. After these days of fighting, the hundred people led by Wei Dayong have been reduced by nearly half! Although these men are not as well-trained and well-trained as regular soldiers, and when it comes to coordinated attacks, they are not even comparable to the most ordinary army, but each of them has a good force to fight in skirmishes, and their combat power is not comparable to that of ordinary armies.
I don't talk nonsense, the steel gun is pointed directly at the wall captured by the rebels: "Our goal is to recapture the broken city wall as quickly as possible, don't take prisoners, don't break it at will!" ”
When everyone involved in the attack heard me clearly, I shouted, "Rush—" and was the first to rush out.
Wei Dayong followed closely behind with a knife with an eyebrow tip (in a few days, his knife had been curled one after another, and I can't remember the first one he used), then Luo Rou and Xue'er, and then everyone.
