Chapter 773: Encircling and Annihilating the Siamese Army (6)

The King of Siam fell off the back of the war elephant and knocked out his old teeth, but he couldn't care about it anymore.

At this time, a faint dense cannon sound was heard from the western direction.

"It must be the main force of the Ming army outside the city attacking the hundreds of thousands of Siamese troops who came to the rescue!" The King of Siam trembled in his heart and muttered.

He had seen the power of the Ming army's artillery with his own eyes just now, and he had personally learned the combat effectiveness of the Ming army.

From watching the combat effectiveness displayed by the Ming army, the King of Siam clearly realized that the hundreds of thousands of Siamese troops outside the city must not be the opponent of the Ming army, and they may have been defeated and retreated at this time.

And he was blocked in the city and could not break out, and the boundless despair overwhelmed the King of Siam.

The King of Siam saw no hope, and knew more clearly that once the Ming army annihilated the hundreds of thousands of Siamese troops who came to his rescue, it would be his turn, and at that time, it would also be his end.

Indeed, just as the King of Siam thought, the 140,000 Siamese reinforcements outside the city were in a state of complete collapse under the Ming army's advance and encirclement on all sides and the heavy artillery bombardment.

"Boom Boom"

After the cannon was discharged, the Ming artillery immediately opened the breech of the barrel and stuffed a new shell into it, then closed the breech and continued to fire.

Shells rained down inside the encirclement.

At all the moment, Siamese soldiers were torn apart by shells.

After the Ming army advanced about half a cup of tea, the original encirclement with a radius of more than 1,000 meters had been compressed to 700 meters. In such a narrow place, the Siamese soldiers became more and more dense, and the probability of being killed and injured by shells also increased, and if the original Ming army could only kill and wound three or four Siamese soldiers per shell, it has now escalated to kill four to five Siamese soldiers per shell.

The number of Siamese soldiers has dropped from 140,000 to 100,000 now, and as many as 40,000 Siamese soldiers have been killed by bullets and shells, and another 70,000 have been slightly or seriously wounded, that is, there are not even 30,000 intact Siamese soldiers.

"General, it's too miserable, the Ming army's artillery fire is fierce, and the Ming army on all sides is constantly encircling the middle, and the soldiers are suffering heavy casualties, or it won't be long before the entire army will be annihilated by the Ming army." There were a lot of scorched black and blood stains on the bodies of the Siamese generals, and they cried when they found General Tundohi in embarrassment.

Although this general is also a general who has fought for many years and has experienced a hundred battles, he has seen a lot of casualties between the enemy and the enemy, but he never dared to imagine the situation of pure slaughter like this to the Ming army before, miserable, it is too miserable!

Not only was it miserable, but it was hopeless, and the Ming army was so strong that people could not see any possibility of victory, which was the reason for the biggest blow.

At this moment, General Tundohi was also in a trance, and his heart was full of despair.

"Boom Boom"

Listen to the sound of shells exploding all the time around you, and watch the flames of the shells exploding.

"Boom!" Another cannonball exploded more than ten meters away from General Thondohi, and General Thondohi once again watched several Siamese soldiers being blown away by the shell, and one of them landed only three or four meters away from General Thondohi, covered in flesh and blood, and he couldn't survive.

Not to mention other Siamese soldiers, General Tundohi was also hit by shells twice, and personally learned the power of Ming artillery shells, but he was quite lucky, and he was only slightly injured by the blazing waves caused by the explosions on both occasions.

"General, did you hear me, the soldiers are so miserable," the Siamese general, apparently startled by the bloody corpse, continued to cry in General Tondohi Burma.

With a sad expression, General Tundohi finally looked at the Siamese general.

"The Ming army can't be defeated, for the sake of the lives of the remaining soldiers, the army still surrenders to the Ming army!" General Tondohi shuddered as he spoke.

As the temporary supreme commander of this army, General Tundohi, who has some royal blood, said these words, which was almost equivalent to making the entire army completely abandon resistance and surrender to the Ming army.

When the Siamese general heard the words of General Tundohi, without any hesitation or sadness, he immediately ran to publicize General Tondohi's order and organize a large army to surrender to the Ming army.

"General Tundohi has an order, the whole army gives up resistance and asks the Ming army to surrender!"

"General Tundohi has an order, the whole army gives up resistance and asks the Ming army to surrender!"

As more and more people learned of the news, more and more people shouted to inform others, and after a while, the sound of surrender in the encirclement once drowned out the sound of shell explosions.

The remnants of the Siamese soldiers wept, and the surrender meant that they had finally saved their lives and would not have to continue to struggle with the bombardment that could take their lives at any time.

The will of the Siamese soldiers had long since collapsed, and the heavy artillery fire brought them only fear, and no one opposed surrender, and even many Siamese soldiers threw away their weapons the moment they received the order.

Eventually, General Tundohi was helped to the edge of the encirclement and confronted the Ming army, who would surrender to the Ming army on behalf of the entire Siamese army.

At this time, the Ming army was still compressing the encirclement and attacking and advancing towards the center of the encirclement, while the Siamese soldiers facing it were constantly retreating with pale faces.

"Throw away your weapons and surrender to the Ming army!" General Tundohi said to the Siamese soldiers who were still holding their weapons.

The Siamese soldiers glanced at General Tundohi and without hesitation threw down their weapons and fell to their knees.

General Tundohi also led a group of Siamese generals to their knees on the ground, their hands raised high, symbolizing their surrender before the battle.

"Stop attacking!" When the general of the Ming army saw the scene of the Siamese army in front of him, he knew that the Siamese army could not bear it and was about to surrender, and this was the way the Siamese army surrendered, so he immediately smiled and loudly ordered the army to stop attacking.

After a while, someone reported the surrender of the Siamese army to Zhou Cao, the commander of the Ming army.

"Hehe, good! After the surrender of this Siamese army, only the Siamese king in Taunggyi City remained, and the main army of Siam was completely wiped out at hand! Zhou Cao said with a laugh.

"Accept the surrender of the Siamese army!" Zhou Cao made a final decision.

Immediately, the soldiers of the Ming army began to gradually receive the surrendered troops of Siam.

A group of remnants of the defeated army marched to the location specified by the Ming army under the supervision of the Ming cavalry, and the 140,000 Siamese reinforcements were wiped out.
