Golovin wanted to sneak attack, but Sun Chuanting's defense was too tight, if he had enough troops, he could also try, the problem was that the other fortresses always had to be garrisoned, and he only picked out a total of 200,000 troops, not as many as Sun Chuanting's current subordinates.

He wanted to attack the Ming army camp, and there were 100,000 troops stationed in the Ming army camp at all times; If you want to sneak attack the siege troops, the cavalry and infantry in the siege troops who have not participated in the siege are always ready to fight, and he will not be able to please either side of the sneak attack, and there is always a possibility that he will be dumplings from both sides.

Therefore, like Andrei, he has no choice but to wait for the Ming army to be negligent before launching a sneak attack.

Will the Ming army be negligent? That, of course, is impossible.

In fact, Sun Chuanting had long guessed that there was a large army of Tsarist Russia nearby, and the scouts he sent out would always encounter scouts from Tsarist Russia from time to time, and it was natural for the two sides to meet to live or die, just in the past few days, the Ming army scouts have been killed and wounded hundreds, and there are hundreds of Russian scouts killed, if it is a small force, it is impossible to send so many scouts, and only if it is possible that the Tsarist army is ambushed nearby will send so many scouts.

Even Sun Chuanting can analyze according to the total strength of Tsarist Russia and the performance of the scouts, the Tsarist army ambushed nearby definitely does not exceed 300,000, if they have enough troops, they will have made a move a long time ago, and they will not hide and look for opportunities like now.

This main force of Tsarist Russia, if it is found to fight against it in the field, not to mention annihilating them, Sun Chuanting still has the confidence to defeat them, but the emperor's will is to open up the second line in the southeast, not to find the main force of Tsarist Russia for a decisive battle.

Besides, this is not the Siberian Plateau, but the Siberian Plain, and the entire plain is full of Tsarist Russian fortresses, even if they are defeated, as long as they escape to the bottom of that fortress casually, their own 300,000 troops will not be able to take them.

Sun Chuanting will not do this kind of thing that cannot be done, and there is a suspicion of disrespect for the will, Sun Chuanting will not do it, he can only be vigilant at all times to prevent the enemy from sneaking in, as for what kind of encirclement point to send reinforcements and lure the enemy deep, that is not what should be done now, his main task is to build the Western Regions Railway and the Trans-Siberian Railway within five months, if he delays the major events assigned by the emperor because of a moment of greed, and destroys the emperor's layout of the entire Siberian war, he believes that even if he wins a big victory, the emperor will not be happy.

Sun Chuanting and Golovin maintained a tacit understanding like this, one did not take the initiative to attack, but was always on guard, and the other did not dare to attack casually, just kept watching.

Andrei was miserable, he didn't know that Golovin didn't dare to sneak attack, he always thought that Golovin was waiting for the opportunity, so even if the Ming army dug up to the second floor of the fortress, he didn't show a trace of despair, he always thought that as long as Marshal Golovin made a move, the Ming army would be defeated and flee!

The offensive and defensive war is still going on, the Ming army is digging and digging every day, and Andre is waiting every day, except for the two sides will exchange fire fiercely for a while every time the Ming army changes shifts through a gap, and the other times both sides are not angry, as if they are conducting offensive and defensive drills.

For another three days, a huge explosion sounded, and more than a dozen openings appeared in the wall of the second floor of the fortress, at this time, Andrei was a little panicked, why didn't Marshal Golovin launch a sneak attack? There are no more than 5,000 people on the third floor of the fortress! More than half of the defenders' barracks were on the second floor of the fortress, and if they did not hold the second floor, half of the soldiers did not even have a place to stand.

He had to command 3,000 unwounded soldiers to hold the second-floor barracks, and the two sides finally launched a fierce exchange of fire on the second floor, but, after fighting for a while, the Ming army inexplicably retreated to the first floor, as if giving up the attack.

Will the Ming army abandon the offensive? Of course, it is impossible, not long after the siege troops retreated to the first floor, the artillery of the Ming army sounded a terrifying roar, this time it was no longer a scattered bullet, but a solid bullet!

After several days of handling, the Ming army finally brought hundreds of thousands of solid shells, this time, all the artillery aimed at the second-story barracks, the shells were simply like a storm, the masonry barracks was soon bombarded with holes, and the second-story defenders were bombarded into various corners, huddled together.

The barracks are naturally not as strong as the city walls, and in less than two hours, the second-story barracks were bombed into a pile of rubble, and then, the Ming army began to replace them with scattered bullets to cover the third layer of the fortress, and Andrei secretly said "Oops".

Sure enough, as soon as the scattered bombs covered the third layer, the Ming army rushed to the second floor, and the grenade was thrown into the crowded place like raindrops, followed by a continuous burst of gunfire, and before the commander of the second floor could organize effective resistance, nearly 10,000 Ming troops had already rushed to the front.

This is a battle with no suspense, because most of the defenders have been blown up into hedgehogs and rolled on the ground with grenades, even if they have not become hedgehogs, they have more or less been hit by a few steel needles, and some have been beaten into a sieve by bullets, 3,000 remnants of soldiers with heavy casualties, against 10,000 living Ming troops, the ending can be imagined.

Andrei seems to have realized something, at this time the reinforcements led by Marshal Golovin still have no movement at all, so when will it be, the cruel truth tells him that either the reinforcements will not dare to go at all, or there will be no reinforcements at all!

Thinking about this clearly, his eyes finally showed a look of despair, it turned out that he was a bait at all, and it was a bait that was abandoned, because it was a big shark that bit the hook, and how dare the fisherman catch it.

This battle did not last long, and in less than an hour, the Ming army completely occupied the second floor of the fortress, as for the defenders on the second floor, most of them were still rolling on the ground in pain, and those who could get up were basically stabbed in the heart, and they didn't even have a chance to roll.

After cleaning up the defenders on the second floor, the Ming army began to dig the three-story city wall in a hurry, at this time, Andrei had lost the courage to resist, because the third layer was basically wounded soldiers, even if it was not a wounded soldier, what could it be, two thousand against three hundred thousand, and the ending did not need to be thought about at all.

From the beginning, the only thing he was counting on was reinforcements, and now, now that he knew that the reinforcements would not come, and what else was there to resist, he even asked people to prepare a white flag, as soon as the three-story city wall was blown down, surrender immediately!

As for the question of escape, he never thought about it, Golovin was notoriously cruel, and he would rather be a prisoner of the Ming army than go back to eat the pork hook.

It was another three days, in a huge roar, there were more than ten gaps in the three-story wall of the fortress, and the soldiers of the Ming army flocked up, and the grenade had not been thrown out, but the white flag was erected everywhere on the third floor, and the Russian defenders surrendered!
