941 retreated

In the face of the regular documents of various countries, as well as the cables of the Allied High Command. There was no reason for the senior officers present to refuse such an order. They naturally obeyed, after all, according to the strength of the country, as well as the current number of troops. Zhao Jun can indeed hold such a position.

Although the Yan army was large in number at the beginning. However, the Yan army reached two regiments. About five thousand people later. It didn't add much. And Zhao Jun is different. The Zhao army reached more than 6,000 people at once. And the number of people is still increasing. The South Korean army had only two cavalry battalions. The Qin army only sent a military observation group, a company-sized engineering corps, and a small detachment to manage logistics supplies, with a number of no more than 300 people. Obviously, the Qin army did not send its own regular army to fight here. And so it goes. The task of commanding the Allied forces fell on Major General Zhao.

"Okay, let's start talking about it now and make a plan for the next attack." As he spoke, the major general began to signal his men to take the map up and study it.

Various Allied forces are currently arriving. Moreover, in terms of weapons, the Allies had an absolute advantage, in particular, their superiority in artillery, which was incomparable with the Qi army. This is because the artillery equipped by the Allies is relatively advanced firing artillery. Although the artillery of the Zhao army looks relatively old. The cannon was still cast in bronze, but with a more elaborate casting. This late model of Qin artillery. And this artillery makes the principle of firing the fire cap ignite and fire, so to speak. This artillery has the advantage of being able to fire quickly.

In addition, there are a large number of Yan princes armed with new artillery, and they have a variety of artillery up to thirty-six. Among them were three heavy guns of six-inch caliber. In addition, there were direct-fire infantry guns of various calibers. If mortars are counted, then the number of artillery pieces of the Yan army will exceed forty.

Not only that, but the Zhao and Yan armies were generally equipped with advanced machine guns. These machine guns were all superior weapons and equipment provided by the Qin State. The Qi army does not have these equipment. On the part of machine guns. The Allies had an absolute advantage.

In addition to these. In terms of infantry weapons. The Yan Army was armed with an advanced rear-pull rotary five-round magazine rifle, which used smokeless gunpowder cartridges. Moreover, pointed bullets are commonly used for gun warheads. Yan Jun believed that pointed bullets had a longer range. Therefore, the Yan army was the first to be equipped with this advanced gun and ammunition.

Although the Zhao army was still armed with a large number of trap-door rifles, this rifle began to use some smokeless powder bullets. Although this type of cartridge is used on trap rifles, the rifle appears to have a relatively large recoil. In addition, its metal fatigue degree is accelerated. The huge impact force of gunpowder after firing stretches the maximum value of the metal, and if the barrel is fired like this for a long time, it is easy to cause damage to the barrel. Moreover, in actual tests, such shooting can easily lead to all kinds of problems with the gun. This is for the soldiers of the Zhao army. It's very nasty. However, they still like this weapon because it is very stable when using black powder bullets.

And the Qi army side. The Qi army was generally equipped with this type of rifle, and in addition, they also had a variety of improved rifles, but these rifles were all rifles without a magazine design, and these rifles also used black powder fixed guns. The range is effective at a range of two hundred paces. More than two hundred steps, it's hard to say.

In terms of other weapons. The Allies had a certain advantage, and the Allies had leveraged rifles. This gun is in absolute superiority in close combat, this gun is capable of firing continuously. It was used in both infantry and cavalry, and in general the number of cavalry equipment was relatively large.

The Qi army did not come back to the gun. But they have submachine guns. This gun was inferior to a shotgun in terms of power, but superior to a shotgun in terms of rate of fire. In the pistol. The pistols of the Qi army were more advanced. At the very least, it surpasses the Allies in terms of secondary reloading. The Allies were generally armed with a revolver, the advantage of which was that he was stable, and the disadvantage was that, because of stability, he used a revolver. As a result, his reload time is very time-consuming. The Allies have not yet encountered such a problem with this gun.

In terms of the use of throwing weapons. The Qi commandos used explosives packs. And the Allied side used grenades. The explosive pack is more powerful than a grenade. But throw on the distance. The grenade occupies an absolute advantage, moreover, in terms of carrying. The effect of anti-personnel infantry is obvious.

It can be said that there is still a gap in the weapons of the two sides, but in terms of individual weapons, the gap between the two sides is not very large. At least in individual combat. Both sides have their strengths.

The Allies are analyzing and studying the Qi army. And Qi Jun is also nervously watching their new opponent.

"The army of Yan, the army of Zhao, and the army of South Korea, they have already reached many people." A scout came to report.

"They numbered more than 10,000?" The commander of the Qi army asked.

"Yes, those big iron guys keep transporting the armies of the Three Kingdoms." The scout replied.

"Got it, let's go down." The commander of the Qi army waved his hand and said.

"The general is really high." At this time, a general of the Qi army took the initiative to stand up and said.

"Hmph." The Commander simply snorted.

"The armies of the three countries have increased their strength too quickly." The commander said.

"Our army is no longer able to capture Yandu." The commander said.

"Tell me what you think." At this time, the commander said weakly. In fact, the situation of the Qi army is very bad. In order to occupy Yandu as soon as possible. The Qi army drew a large number of defensive forces and threw them into the street battles in the city. But when Allied reinforcements arrived. When the Qi army turned around and looked at the troops in his hands. The back of the commander of the Qi army suddenly cooled.

The strength of the outer defense was less than 2,000 men. And most of the main forces were thrown into street fighting. But in the middle of street fighting. The forces were divided into various regions by the tenacious Qin people. The entire Yan was beaten to ruins. There were ruins everywhere, and although the Qi army sent a large number of infantry to consolidate their newly occupied areas, it did not take long. There will be a new Qin militia again. They didn't know how the Qin people came out at all. In fact, Yandu is turning into a modern metropolis, although the king of Yan has invested a lot of construction in surface buildings, mainly some image projects, but in the concession of the Qin state. The state of Qin was built in strict accordance with its own national standards. They built a well-developed system of sewer pipes. In addition to these. Qin engineers built such sewer facilities on several of Yan's main roads, which mainly served the royal family. But I didn't think of it. Before they were put into use, these facilities became important transportation arteries for the militia to infiltrate the Qi army-occupied areas. Take advantage of these underneath facilities. The militia returned to the place where they fought and continued to fight. And the Qi army in order to re-consolidate their own region. They had to redeploy their forces to encircle and suppress them. That's it. You come back. I'm encircling and suppressing. You go, I'll go. You come and I come tactics. There isn't much time. The Qi army repeatedly threw in troops. At last. All the troops are consumed on this.

"Our army will retreat." Said one of the generals. The Qi army continued to invest troops. And it's constantly being consumed. And then. New troops were put in. In this way, the tug-of-war was repeated, and in the end, the strength of the Qi army continued to be consumed. And it was divided, and finally scattered in all corners of the city.

"Yes, our forces are completely crippled." A commander of the Qi army said. His men were less than two hundred. The rest of the people were constantly being killed. Or you can't find it. There are all kinds of situations on this battlefield.

"Retreat? How we retreated. Another general said.

"Our troops are all in this Yandu City, how can we mobilize our own troops back." At this time, another commander said.

"We." The general was speechless.

Everyone knows it. This time. The Qi army was no longer able to draw its forces back. The troops have been scattered sporadically in Yandu City. Even if they were able to retreat at this time, they would not be able to notify their troops of the retreat in time, and once they retreated, those militiamen would bite them in turn.

"Neither is it to enter, nor is it to retreat. It's hard. A general said.

"Neither does it enter, nor does it retreat." The commander said.

The current situation of the Qi army is so bad. They have Allied reinforcements on the periphery, but militia on the inside, and they can't do without the whole place. Of course, they couldn't take the place either. This is where street fighting is a great threat. Even with a huge superiority of forces. In the midst of endless battles. Still dragged alive. That's street fighting. A completely new tactic.

And the Qi army is obviously the first time to try such a combat method. They simply don't know that there is such a way of fighting in urban warfare. Especially after the use of gunpowder weapons. This kind of urban street fighting takes more time and energy than siege warfare. and a lot more human resources of all kinds. If it's not well organized, you'll be caught in. Right now. The situation of the Qi army is that they have entered the deep quagmire of street fighting.

"We can't go on the offensive anymore. Let's retreat. The commander thought twice.

"Think of a way to get our people out. We are no match for the Triple Alliance. We must retreat. At this time, the commander said with determination.

"There must be a retreat. Otherwise, we will fail miserably. We can't even keep this little bit of people in our hands. The commander turned and said.
