"It's been five days. For five days, so many of us did not take the position held by only 500 men on the opposite side. Do you still have a face? Guo Yan shouted loudly at him with great annoyance.

Dong Zhuo asked him to take the opposite position in two days, but in fact, they didn't take it until the fifth day, obviously, it seemed impossible today. Because their casualties were too great. They have exhausted the last bit of strength to attack.

There was a strong defensive position on the opposite side, and most importantly, the other side did not retreat, which made them feel very puzzled. They don't know how the other side did it.

"If you can't take it again tomorrow or tomorrow, you won't be able to live. I won't survive either, I'll cut off my head and give it to the general. I can't live. You won't live. Guo Yan shouted loudly.

"Eat." Guo Yan shouted loudly. He shouted with almost all his strength. Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The offensive went on for five days, and there were more than a dozen attacks every day. But alas, they were all repulsed. Three days ago, their artillery also stopped attacking, and it is said that there were not many shells for the attack. This made it extremely difficult for them to attack.

However, the attack in the past few days has been a huge intimidation and a huge threat to the people in Luoyang City.

Because the people of Luoyang have never seen what the war of firearms is all about, the rumbling cannons outside the city have made the people lose sleep in the past few days. We never knew that war would make such a loud noise. Some people with good deeds will also run to the city tower to watch the war. The war became extremely cruel and bloody, especially the attack of artillery shells, although the smoke of gunpowder covered a lot of bloody scenes, and there was white smoke everywhere, so that they could not see clearly what happened in the war, but there were still some situations that I still made me pinch their observations, that is, the war of firearms, which was more cruel and bloody than ordinary wars. The intensity is far from what they can imagine.

In the past, there may still be large-scale scuffles, but the bloody battles between soldiers on both sides will become more intense.

But for Dong Zhuo, this is not good news, because they have already paid the price of nearly 3,000 casualties, and they are unable to pull out such a nail in the slightest, which undoubtedly gives the city a hope. Dong Zhuo was extremely annoyed, and even, he was very anxious, this was related to his political future in the next step, if he couldn't do such a thing well, he really didn't know what else he could do. That's what he's going to do at the moment, what he's thinking about.

However, Cao Cao's infantry battalion had held out for too long. The casualties were extremely serious, more than 300 people were killed, and on the position, less than 60 people held their positions, and the artillery was lost. The two sides engaged in an extremely brutal artillery battle, with four smaller-caliber guns against each other's five-inch large-caliber guns. The results can be imagined. The ammunition they had previously stored was also depleted. The only thing that was still possible was the sappers, who fought continuously, and they secretly dug a tunnel. It is possible to get out of this war.

"We can do it, the lord's hard work for us, we are enough to repay it." So said an engineer sergeant. On the battlefield, the biggest officer is the second lieutenant. The rest were all killed, especially the adviser officers from the Republican Army, who could have left here, and the war had nothing to do with them. After all, they were only advisers, but they still stayed, and in the most critical moments, they still fought back with a small force.

This is something that is absolutely unimaginable, and Dong Zhuo is also extremely incomprehensible. Normally, if there are few troops, the defending side will try to save troops for defense as much as possible. But the other party boldly organized a counterattack. The effect of the counter-shock is extremely obvious. Under the extremely crazy counterattack of the other party. Many times it looks like you are about to win the other party's victory. All at once he was beaten down. As a result, the battle was extremely stalemate. even made Dong Zhuo feel very aggrieved.

This counter-attack worked well, but alas, after a few times, they were unable to attack. Their forces were also extremely depleted, but the good thing was that they completely suppressed the morale of the other side. The courage of the other party to launch an attack is a little astigmatism.

"No more. You sappers go. You are all skilled, when you go, bury all the **, let's give them a ruthless meal. The lieutenant lay down and said that his thigh was wounded. Unable to stand at all. It's impossible to launch a counter-shock.

"This. Leave the brethren behind. The engineer sergeant was a little hesitant, although the role of their engineer was obvious.

Several times when the position was about to be lost, they relied on the ** they expected to bury. After igniting, Dong Zhuojun, who rushed up, was blown away by many people at once, and the shock caused by this huge explosion was extremely ferocious. Hundreds of people disappeared all at once, and the soldiers in the rear were shocked by the shocking explosion. They don't feel like they're fighting, it's a war of divine powers. People are so small in the face of this war. Helpless.

"Let's go. We've won quite a bit. There is no need for all of them to stay, you also need to follow the lord, follow the lord, the sappers were built by the lord with the greatest effort, in the words of the advisor, your skills are much higher than ours, and it will depend on you in the future. Let's go. The second lieutenant said.

"Let's go." The second lieutenant urged.

"Well, sure, brother." The sapper said that when he left, he took as many of the wounded as he could, and some of the soldiers had decided to stay, knowing that they already had fields at home, and their lord would not care about them. They don't have anything to worry about anymore.

Day 2. The sixth day of the offensive.

In order to capture the opposite position as soon as possible, Dong Zhuojun had wasted too much time. They must not afford to delay. So, Dong Zhuo gave the order to push the cannon up. But considering that there were not too many shells, in order to expand the victory as much as possible. Dong Zhuojun adjusted his tactics, and their artillery would be bombarded directly on the shoulders of the infantry.

That is, behind the infantry, there is artillery, and after the infantry provides some cover, they will retreat to the sides of the artillery and use artillery to bombard.

This tactic was not taught by the Republican Army, but Dong Zhuojun figured it out himself. Because they found that every time their infantry did not gain a foothold, they were beaten down by the counterattack of the other side. When they strike again, their morale will drop to a very low level. That's not a good thing for them. How to gain a firm foothold to the greatest extent and win the opposite position has become a key.

In the case of wasting a lot of time, Dong Zhuo couldn't take care of it a lot. He directly mobilized artillery, mixed artillery and infantry, and changed the core of the infantry attack from the previous infantry to artillery. That is, the artillery will provide strong fire support in the vicinity. It's definitely a short-term change for them. Now this tactic is working.

After the infantry had advanced some distance, they became extremely cautious, and they were afraid. Because the other side will attack like crazy, they simply can't afford it.

"Artillery, artillerymen come forward." One of the officers shouted after swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

"Artillery. Artillery. With that, the artilleryman slowly pushed the cannon up. The artillerymen were also worried. They don't know what's going to happen, but all they need to do now is they have to stick to their posts in a situation like this.

"Go over there, do you see it, come and shoot a few shots. Fast. "The infantry officer ran to the back and gave the order.

The artillery did not see the target. But they had to prepare to fire a few shots.

"Bang." The artillery immediately opened fire, and one shell hit the opposite position directly, and the first shot had no effect, but the second shot hit the enemy.

"Rush." Several enemy soldiers rushed out with firearms armed with bayonets, and they were not afraid of death. There is no fear at all, this is an extremely terrifying thing for Dong Zhuojun.

"Hit, fire, hit." The officer shouted loudly. It's not just anxiety, it's also fear, because they are easily defeated by such an impact from the other party, and the only way to give them a little courage is to constantly output firepower, perhaps, those bullets that fly out indiscriminately can help them solve big, big problems. This is their biggest reliance at present, and without such support, they simply cannot do anything. That's what hurts them the most at the moment.

Just when everyone was in a hurry, at a loss, they opened fire indiscriminately. The artillery also fired a shell quickly. Cannonballs are hard, and people are flesh and blood after all. There is no suspense that the two will collide.

The counterattack was dismantled. This gave Dong Zhuojun a lot of confidence, and the enemy was wiped out without impact. It's not just because of the small number of people on the other side. There were also their artillery that played a great role. It's a completely new tactic that will give them a big advantage.

Dong Zhuojun's morale gradually recovered. They attacked slowly, and the artillery constantly searched to launch an attack. Under pressure from artillery. The counterattack had to be carried out earlier, but in the end it was suppressed.

Finally, when they finally took up their positions, they still didn't dare to relax.

"There's a live one here." One of the soldiers shouted loudly.

"Kill them, quickly, not a single one." The officer shouted loudly, they did not have a good impression of these soldiers who were holding their positions.

"Boom" a huge explosion came.
