Chapter 1218: Frustration
Dayan Khan couldn't help but scold Zhang Zhijie for being mad and outrageous, and the guards of Daning City were also extremely despicable and shameless, and they would even take the defenders to pretend to be stupid, and they didn't let go of a shot from beginning to end, until a ruthless one suddenly came from behind.
It's just shameless! Dayan Khan scolded in his heart for a while, and then he made up his mind and began to straighten out his soldiers and horses. Suddenly attacked by dense artillery, more than 20,000 cavalry scrambled to break under the leadership of Dayan Khan, and more than 20,000 cavalry were like headless flies, even if they escaped the range of artillery, it was chaotic.
After a long period of rectification, the army was finally reorganized, and it was then that Dayan Khan returned his attention to the city of Daning. At this time, Daning City was like a huge hedgehog in the eyes of Dayan Khan.
The density of artillery on the city wall made Dayan Khan feel a little frightened when he thought about it, originally he thought that it would be easy to break through Daning City, but now it seems that it is not so easy.
Do you want to attack the city, Dayan Khan looked back at the cavalry around him and was even more depressed, the morale of these cavalry plummeted! The morale of being beaten by just one shelling plummeted, and Dayan Khan was a little dissatisfied in his heart, he completely forgot how he had just been frightened and fled!
"Great Khan, there are so many cannons in Daning City, and if you want to attack the city, you must suffer heavy losses. It's better to rob Duoyan Sanwei, so it won't be considered empty-handed! A subordinate suggested.
The people around them all showed a look of approval when they heard this, compared to Daning City, which was like a hedgehog, it was easier to rob Duoyan Sanwei.
But Dayan Khan was stunned when he heard this, he didn't come here to plunder, he came to shame, to maintain his khan position. Originally, it was going to attack and attack, but now it is coming to attack Daning City.
This was a beautiful plan, if he was too frightened to attack the city because he was frightened by a burst of artillery in Daning City, and he retreated after looting the Duoyan Sanwei, then what would the people on the grassland think of him, the Great Khan?
The coalition army that did not dare to attack and did not fight with Zhang Zhijie was frightened by the artillery of Daning City, which was empty, and finally looted Tainingwei and Fuyuwei as a fig leaf?
Dayan Khan shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Ben Khan came to capture Daning City, is it because of the robbery of Duoyan Sanwei?!" ”
The generals were a little ashamed when they heard this, and Dayan Khan raised his voice and said: "The artillery of Daning City looks bluffing, but as long as it hits the city, then their artillery will become an ornament!" ”
"Daning City is empty, and Daning City has nothing but artillery. As long as our forces are dispersed, the effectiveness of the artillery will be reduced! ”
"You are all warriors on the steppe, don't forget the glory of Genghis Khan, as long as you rush to the bottom of the city, can't you still capture the empty Daning City?"
After listening to Dayan Khan's analysis, these generals who were shocked by the artillery finally recovered some of their morale. Dayan Khan then agitated: "Zhang Zhijie's guy has already controlled the Duoyan Sanwei, and he will definitely concentrate the wealth and beauties of the Duoyan Sanwei in Daning City!" ”
"Instead of robbing Duoyan Sanwei, it is better to rob Daning City, there are more gold and silver treasures in Daning City, and more Peugeot women! As long as you break through the city of Daning, Ben Khan will allow you to indulge in killing and looting! Kill and rob the entire Daning City! ”
With Dayan Khan's agitation, the morale of the army was restored, and Dayan Khan immediately began to distribute, and with Dayan Khan's distribution, many cavalry dismounted and began to assemble improvised siege equipment.
Although the defenders on the city wall did not take the Tatar cavalry besieging the city in their eyes, they did not expect that these Tatar cavalry would be directly dispersed after only two waves of artillery bombardment, which was really bad.
However, the Tatar cavalry outside the city did not seem to show signs of retreating, and many cavalry dismounted after the whole army. The musketeers on the city walls watched with amusement, these Tatars really planned to attack the city.
I hope that these siege Tartars will be able to rush through the artillery attack, so that the flintlock pistols in their hands can also come in handy, thought the musketeers in the city.
At this time, they miss the governor even more, if the governor is there, they can go out of the city to fight the Tartars, these Tatar cavalry are even worse than when the city of Xuanfu is down, it is much easier to defeat them!
Soon thousands of Tartars carried the ladder formed very loosely towards the city wall, and soon entered the range of artillery, although the roar of artillery brought great casualties to the Tartars, but the casualties of such a loose formation were not as shocking as the last time.
The roar of the artillery died down, and a full half of the men rushed through the range of the artillery, and although the casualties were heavy, they were not unacceptable. Dayan Khan sat on his horse and watched the warriors rush through the range of the artillery, and was very happy.
Because the Mongols also had bows and arrows in addition to equestrianism, as long as they approached the city walls, they could shoot arrows at the walls, and then the rest of the men and horses began to attack the city.
Dayan Khan actually had some regrets, in the last battle of Xuanfu, their Mongol cavalry had not yet played their cavalry shooting, and they were knocked down by muskets! Now Da Ming's musket is so powerful that it is even farther than the range of bows and arrows.
It's almost over, Dayan Khan squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, as long as these warriors shoot arrows at the city wall, the city wall will be in a hurry, and then the warriors can be sent to charge again.
But what he had hoped for did not happen, for the crackling of muskets rang out. The sound of muskets shocked Dayan Khan even more than the sound of artillery, because artillery does not decide the outcome of a war, but muskets can!
The two great victories of the Ming Dynasty were built on muskets, and the muskets of the Ming Dynasty were powerful. Sure enough, the warriors who rushed to the city wall fell to the ground one after another, and some warriors were unwilling to draw their bows and shoot arrows, but the arrows shot out could not be hit on the city wall at all.
And the muskets of the Ming Dynasty can shoot them condescendingly. Soon after the baptism of artillery, the surviving stormtroopers finally fell under the muskets.
The city of Daning was quiet again, only the north wind was howling, and the corpses under the city walls were in disarray, and all the warriors sent by Dayan Khan fell to the ground. Not to mention erecting a ladder, there are not even warriors who rush to the root of the city wall!
Dayan Khan looked at the city wall in the distance and his face was very ugly, there are so many muskets in Daning City, this is a fart city! Daming's muskets were so powerful, it was difficult for their cavalry to rush to the front of the battle in the field, let alone the danger of the city, how could they rush to the city wall?!
Dayan Khan looked at the Daning City in front of him and was speechless for a long time, but it was like being on the edge of the sky, Daning City has dense artillery and muskets, and only more than 20,000 soldiers and horses can capture Daning City?
