The majestic ancient city, the banner of the Great Western Army on the city wall fluttered in the wind, and Cao Ye's troops were feint troops, so although Zhu Zhijian's army was in the southwest, it did not immediately attack Guilin

The first day was a tentative attack, launched by Cao Ye's department, before the Ming army camp, more than a dozen Franc machine heavy artillery fired in unison, and the shells smashed on the city wall of Guilin in bursts of explosions, and some of them happened to skip the city wall, and seven or eight Daxi soldiers were like being swept out by a big broom

Zheng Jue looked at the heavy artillery used by Cao Ye's department, the size was about the same as the naval gun that Zheng Jue bought from Macao, but the power was obviously much smaller, but the power of the siege was better than the tiger squat cannon brought by Zheng Jue, but it was too cumbersome, Zheng Jue's Jing Yuanwei was a field army, and it was not suitable for equipping these super heavy weapons

With the sound of cannons, more than a dozen Daxi soldiers were knocked away, causing some arms and legs to fly down behind the city wall of Guilin, and the siege battle of the Ming army officially began

There is a large open area in the south of Guilin, which is very suitable for cavalry sprints, but unfortunately no one let Zheng Jue fight, the biggest difference between the city defense battle and the field battle is that the defender does not give the order to open the door, and not a single soldier can run, and in the field battle, once the casualties exceed 20 percent, most of the army will collapse without a fight

Therefore, in the eight years that followed, how many Chinese troops on the positions fought to the last soldier, without any city walls and gates, did not give up their positions and retreated, which shows that they have made up their minds to die for this country and this nation

Cao Ye first arranged for a part of the wolf soldiers in Guangxi to attack the city, and Zheng Jue deliberately used binoculars in the camp to watch the battle process of these wolf soldiers

It was found that although these wolf soldiers fought separately, but the quality of individual soldiers was extremely high, on the battlefield, a whole of Guangxi wolf soldiers was not a group, but each of the Guangxi wolf soldiers was a killing machine, although they did not cooperate with each other, but they were doing things that the Ming army and the Daxi soldiers could not do

Zheng Jue saw with his own eyes that the arm of a Guangxi wolf soldier was cut off by a low-level officer of the Great Western Army, but the expression on the wolf soldier's face did not change at all, it seemed that the arm flew away, and he didn't even care about the wound, his reaction was to jump on the officer, bite the low-level officer's neck, and solve the enemy with the most primitive weapon

Zheng Jue saw the battle of the wolf soldiers in Guangxi and felt only shock, deep shock, such an army, if trained well, let them know how to cooperate, they may be the strongest troops in the world, in the possibility that the combat effectiveness is rapidly declining, because their combat effectiveness may come from this way of fighting separately, once this way of fighting is changed, the wolf soldiers will not be wolf soldiers

In addition, Zheng Jue also knew that if an army was unorganized and undisciplined, like the wolf soldiers in Guangxi, then the treatment of the people after the war might not be as good as that of the rogues of the Great Western Army, which is indeed the case

When Yangshuo County almost attacked the city, only a part of the wolf soldiers were used, and when the wolf soldiers entered the city, they carried out a carpet search of Yangshuo County, and finally Cao Ye's army entered the city, and even a few decent houses for the army to be stationed could not be found, so they could only camp in the city

No wonder Chongzhen was reluctant to transfer wolf soldiers north to Liaodong until he died, and he didn't wait for the past on the way, and he could directly scrape out a canal to Beijing from the place he passed

Cao Ye looked at it and ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops, and the siege battle ended on the first day, in this tentative attack, Cao Ye found that the Great Western Army was a little scrambling, and the soldiers of the Great Western Army saw that there was obvious fear on the faces of the wolf soldiers, indicating that the Great Western Army guarding Guilin may not have fought against the wolf soldiers

Cao Ye felt that he would continue to use wolf soldiers the next day, but increase the time for artillery fire to attack the city, first beat the morale of the Great Western Army to the lowest, and then use wolf soldiers

After Zheng Jue returned to the camp, he found that the grenade was almost made, Zheng Jue decided to try it tomorrow to see how it worked, because tomorrow the center of gravity of the Great Western Army will definitely be on the East Gate, after all, the attack at the East Gate on the first day is so fierce

That night, Zheng Jue heard the sound of Guilin City, and there were signs of large-scale mobilization of troops, it seemed that the defenders in the north had been transferred, and he didn't know what the battle would be tomorrow

The next day, Zheng Jue planned to learn from Cao Ye and attack tentatively for a day to see how strong the city was defending here

Zheng Jue was outside the camp and heard that Cao Ye's side was attacking the city, and the whole camp waited for a while before attacking

A hundred cannons were slowly pushed to the city of Guilin, and the black cannon muzzle was aimed at the city tower, Zheng Jue suddenly heard the east gate firing, and Zheng Jue ordered a hundred tiger squat cannons under his command to fire

The guards of the West Gate are very collapsed, because all the cannons of the West Gate were transferred to the East Gate last night, who knows that there are still cannons here, the shells of the Tiger Squat Cannon are mainly lead and stones, and they can be fired at a large elevation angle, after Zheng Jue's modification, the elevation angle can already be adjusted

After several rounds of test firing, the losses of the non-commissioned officers of the Great Western Army were much worse than the losses at the east gate yesterday, and the losses of several rounds of artillery were several hundred

Zheng Jue saw that the fire was almost over, and ordered Sun Zesheng to start a tentative siege with the infantry, and after a rain of arrows fell and a few more corpses were added to the city wall, Sun Zesheng took the infantry and began to set up a ladder to attack the city

The Great Western Army defending the city desperately threw stones and hot oil down, and although the soldiers of Jingyuanwei suffered some losses, most of them were on the way to the top

The soldiers of Jing Yuanwei began to throw grenades up halfway up, and the soldiers of the Great Western Army were stunned, but they did not expect that the things thrown by the officers and soldiers would explode, and the Great Western Army suffered heavy losses for a while

But the Ming army also paid a certain amount of casualties, and the cruelty of the siege battle was reflected in this way, Zheng Jue looked at the soldiers injured and felt a little distressed, but there was no way, this is war, war is to die, this is inevitable

With the power of grenades, the Ming army attacked the city several times but were all squeezed down, and some soldiers of the Great Western Army found that the things thrown by the Ming Army would not explode immediately, and they could continue to throw them down to kill and injure the Ming Army

Zheng Jue looked at the Jingyuan guards who were getting more and more embarrassed, and ruthlessly ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops, and stop playing, this is too dangerous

Zheng Jue rode to Yongfu City that night, asked Zhu Zhijian to transfer other troops to attack the city tomorrow, and gave Zheng Jue some gunpowder, he had already thought of a way to take Guilin
