The princes of Dongying all walks of life thought that they could take Omori City, tens of thousands of people against thousands of people, with a ten-to-one advantage, how could they not take Omori City.

They all believed that the reason why they lost the first battle was because they did not make siege equipment for the firearms of the Ming army, as long as they made something to prevent the Ming army's muskets and thunderbolts, and took Omori Castle, it would definitely not be a problem.

As for making something, it's very simple, just a wooden shield.

So, after a day of hasty preparations, the next day they began to attack the city again.

This time, they were almost all armed with a rudimentary wooden shield, the kind of shield that was tied together with planks or even split thick branches, and could easily raise their hands.

Although this kind of wooden shield is simple, it is not a problem to prevent the musket bullets and thunder of the Ming army, as long as the musket and thunder of the Ming army are prevented, and the city wall is attacked, it is not very simple.

At least, that's what they think.

Yu Dayou saw their simple wooden shield from the telescope, and he felt like he couldn't laugh or cry.

This thing is too simple, isn't it?

That's right, this kind of wooden shield, even the most rudimentary, can protect against musket bullets and thunderous iron needles.

Question, what is the use of an iron needle to protect against musket bullets and thunderbolts?

If nothing else, the shells of medium artillery alone, such a rudimentary wooden shield could not be guarded.

However, this time, he still did not order all the artillery to be bombarded with all his might, because he could clearly see through the telescope that there were still more than 30,000 strong men in the Japanese army, and the platoon was neatly arranged, and there was not moving at all, and it was the same group of people who rushed up from the previous two days, and many of the wounded soldiers in the charging team were obviously simply bandaged.

In other words, the real elite of the Japanese have not yet entered the battle, and it is still cannon fodder that rushes up.

He didn't want to just pack up the cannon fodder and let go of the elite of the pirates, so when the pirates attacked again, he still didn't let the artillery bombard with all their might, let alone the muskets, everyone was holding wooden shields, and the musket bullets didn't have any effect, and it was the same if they couldn't fire, so he simply ordered all the musketeers not to fire.

As for how to break this shield array, it's very simple, burn it with fire, wooden shield, that's not just a little bit.

Fire attack is the most commonly used method in the art of cold weapon warfare, how could he not understand it.

At this time, the Ming army did not lack materials for fire attack, because they had money, and all kinds of materials for fire attack were simply how much they wanted, such as fire oil, and gunpowder, it was not too much.

As for the means of fire attack, there are more, you can use rockets in the long range, ceramic fire pots can be used in the medium range, and you can directly pour fire oil or gunpowder in the short range, and then throw a few torches.

This time, the princes of Dongying were much more miserable than when they attacked for the first time, they had just approached the city wall a hundred paces, the rockets were like raindrops, most of the wooden shields were set on fire, and then, there were oil cans all over the sky, and many people even their clothes were lit, and when they finally rushed to the city wall, the fire oil and gunpowder were even more poured.

They did almost nothing, and they were drowned in the fire!

Baga, the Ming army defending the city is simply too hateful.

This time, not only the princes who were besieging the city were so angry that they gritted their teeth, but even Oda Nobunaga and Takeda Shingen, who were "pressing the formation" in the back, were so angry that they burst into foul language.

Fire attack, they haven't seen it, this thing is the most commonly used means in cold weapon warfare, especially in island countries like Dongying, when fighting a naval battle, they basically focus on fire attack, fire attack, they have seen a lot.

However, it is the first time they have seen such a fierce fire attack by the Ming army, is there any mistake, this fire oil and gunpowder do not cost money?

They really didn't expect that the Ming army would prepare so much oil and gunpowder, and this attack naturally ended in failure.

As for the losses of this siege, if you count the casualties alone, it is not even more than the first time, and it is not easy to burn people to death by fire, unless it is in a blocked and closed house or a closed valley that cannot get out, otherwise, it is really difficult for the living to be burned to death by fire.

This siege war was originally carried out on a huge flat land, and the Japanese were not stupid, if the shield was on fire, they would throw it away, and they would not deliberately throw it up wherever there was a fire, so it was not so easy to burn the siege soldiers with fire alone, but the siege equipment suffered, and the siege equipment they worked hard to build for several days was basically burned out.

This time, the casualties of the various princes were less than 10,000, but the result was even more severe than the first time.

Because they have no moves, they don't have a shield, just musket bullets and thunder can cause them heavy casualties, with a shield, people will burn you down as soon as they catch fire, what should I do?

This Dasen City, how to take it down, everyone is out of recruitment!

In the afternoon of this day, in the humble tent of Oda Nobunaga, the princes of Dongying gathered again, this time, many of the princes were smoky and helpless, they no longer had the same inevitability as before, and they were not as active as they were at the beginning of the attack on Omori Castle.

There is no way, the Ming army in the city is too "treacherous", no matter how they attack, it is useless, and even, after paying forty or fifty thousand casualties, they have not yet attacked the city wall.

They are not stupid, it is obviously impossible for them to do the thing of cannon fodder, after two failures, they have already understood that this Omori City is not so easy to take at all, even if they try hard, it is useless.

Oda Nobunaga understood as soon as he saw everyone's expressions, these people, I'm afraid they were cowardly, and then I was afraid that it would not work to use the strategy of wanting to capture the old people, he thought about it carefully for a while, and then sighed: "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, the Ming army in the city was so treacherous, everyone worked hard, it seems that it may not be so easy to take this Omori City, or how about we take turns to attack?" ”

Take turns attacking, yes, we've all had two rounds, you old fox hasn't been on it yet.

The princes from all walks of life didn't say anything, but nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Oda Nobunaga could only say to Takeda Nobunaga in embarrassment: "Takeda-kun, why don't you lead the army up tomorrow to try." ”

Baga, do you still have a face?

Takeda Nobunaga said expressionlessly: "I have more than 10,000 horses under my command, and it is impossible to take Omori Castle in one fell swoop, Your Excellency General, why don't you go up and try it." ”

Yaga, you old fox.

Oda Nobunaga pretended to shake his head helplessly and said: "I only have 20,000 horses under my command, and it is not so easy to take Omori City, otherwise, let's repair it first, make up for the battle damage, and when the personnel are replenished, we are divided into two groups, taking turns to attack, Takeda-kun with one, I with one, keep attacking, I want to see how many groups the Ming army in the city can withstand." ”

This is also a way to no longer be able to, and it seems unlikely that it will be possible to take Omori Castle in one fell swoop, so you can only use wheel battles.

After all, the Ming army came from afar, and the oil and gunpowder, including bullets and shells, were limited, and they were gone after the battle, and wheel warfare was the best way to consume ammunition.
