Chapter 321: U-turn and run
After a fierce battle, the Twist Army was still driven off the city!
However, when this news was transmitted to Han Laowan's ears, Han Laowan was excited, Jinan City is not invulnerable, at least, his brothers have already climbed to the head of Jinan City, and with a little more effort, I can't take it today, tomorrow, tomorrow will continue, in three or four days, Jinan City can definitely be breached, and in five days, Jinan can definitely be fully captured!
Han Laowan could not suppress the excitement in his heart, the Mongolian cavalry of Monk Greenqin, the closest to Jinan, had been entangled by the cavalry sent by himself, even if it was not the opponent of the Mongolian cavalry, it should not be a problem to drag on for three or five days; As for Shengbao, even if his green battalion marched with all its might, he would definitely not be able to reach the city of Jinan in five days, after all, from Lunan to Jinan, the distance is hundreds of miles, and Shengbao's green shadows are all infantry, where can they run so fast?
This battle is now a sure victory!
As long as the city of Jinan is taken, the army refuses to defend the city, and there is food in it, even if it is defended for a year and a half, there is not much problem, and the friendly troops in the neighboring provinces will naturally do their best to deal with it.
Offensive!
Han Lao gave an order, and the Twist Army began a full-scale attack, and Jinan City became even more precarious.
However, Han Laowan tried all his strength and was able to rush to the city every day, but every time he just rushed up two or three hundred people, he would be attacked by the Qing army with a fierce counterattack, and the twisted army that rushed to the city was almost dead, and the bullets of the Qing army were too dense, and no one knew how many foreign guns they had! Anyway, as long as you rush up, you will be brutally beaten back quickly!
Han Laowan was furious. But there's still no good way!
Han Rang on the side was a little worried. Before each rush to the head of the city. The Qing army's foreign gun firepower is not much dense, but as soon as it reaches the top of the city, it will be much denser. Could it be that this is the appetite of the Qing army that has been hanging on the twisting army?
If that's the case, then it's troublesome, the Qing army has arranged an oversized trap. Just wait for yourself to get in!
Han Rang's forehead continued to break out in a cold sweat, and he became more and more sure of his guess!
"Flag Master, I feel a little bad......"
Han Laowan said angrily: "What's wrong? If you have something to say, let it go quickly, don't swallow it! ”
"Banner master, you see, we have been attacking for three days in a row, and each time we have failed, and we have already suffered five thousand casualties before and after, and we still haven't been able to shake Jinan City for half a point. Now the Mongolian cavalry of the monk Lingqin, who is closest to us, is about to rush to Jinan, and we still can't take Jinan. Could it be that Guo Ye in the city is deliberately hanging us, making us feel that there is hope to take Jinan City......"
Han Lao Wan was shocked and asked, "Wouldn't it?" ”
Han Rang said in a deep voice: "Banner master, don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case, if Guo Ye is really Jinan City as a bait, dragging us here, and giving Monk Lingqin and Shengbao time to surround us, then we will be really in trouble!" Three days have passed, and we have not made any progress at all, and Jinan City is still the same as three days, every time we are allowed to climb to the top of the city, and then beat us down......"
Han Laowan has no bottom in his heart, and it is really difficult to ride a tiger at this time.
"Or, let's fight another day, if we can't take Jinan City tomorrow, we will quickly find an opportunity to withdraw our troops, retreat to the southeast, the southeast direction is the strength of the three towns of Shandong, the worst combat power, maybe we have the opportunity to jump out of where and directly enter the Yimeng Mountains, where are the barren mountains and mountains, the control of the imperial court is the weakest, although it is not easy for us to raise money and food, but the Qing army can not help us, and when the time comes, we are looking for opportunities to move closer to the Anhui area......"
Han Rang said to Han Laowan with a deep groan.
Han Laowan frowned, the siege of Jinan City has suffered more than 5,000 casualties, and if there is no progress, even if the Qing army does not besiege it, it will definitely not be able to support his own people for too long, more than 20,000 people, it is difficult to supply money and food alone!
"Okay, then it's going to be an offensive for a day, and if we still can't take it, we'll withdraw our troops!"
On the fourth day, Han Laowan once again commanded the Twist Army to launch the most ferocious offensive against Jinan City since the start of the war, and the army of more than 20,000 people was almost all pressed up, and he would never stop if he couldn't take Jinan City!
The whole Jinan city is piled up everywhere, a ball of flames is beating, the current training army is actually not comfortable, although Guo Ye sits firmly in the military tent, but only three thousand training troops, even if all of them are pulled up to the city, it is only a fraction of the strength of the twisted army, and in the past few days, the casualties of the Qing army have also reached more than 1,000 people.
However, Guo Ye is still not in a hurry, because he still has a hole card in his hand, that is, the more than 1,000 people who have just been eliminated who have just entered the training army can be replenished into the army at any time!
In the past two or three months, the hearts of these people have been attracted, this is the real army, the real army, the army that works for the people, the treatment is super good, more generous than the military salary of the banner battalion, the fool is unwilling to enter the training army, but the original quota is limited, these people can only stare dryly, and cannot enter.
Well, now that the war of a few days has caused casualties in the training army, these people naturally can't bear it, join the army, I don't want to petition for Lord Futai at this time, when will I wait? As for those twisted bandits outside, what about them, if Jinan City is lost, they will still die? It's death, it's going to die vigorously, it's definitely not going to do it, and if you can perform well, you have to make meritorious contributions!
Wealth and danger are sought, these people are young and strong young people, and they have undergone strict training, and this courage is naturally not lacking.
On the fourth day, the siege of the Twist Army lasted until late at night, and it still failed to break into Jinan City!
Han Laowan was completely disappointed, there was no play, if it went on like this, even if he gave himself three or four days, he still couldn't help Jinan City, but Seng Lingqin and Shengbao would definitely not give themselves such a long time! If you don't run at this time, you will really be surrounded by people and the whole army will be annihilated!
Han Laowan said in a deep voice: "Order, the whole army stops attacking, and orders all the departments in the east, west, and north directions to move closer to the south city, and after the army is assembled, immediately break through to the southeast!" ”
All the twisters are up in action, run, must run!
