The first batch of troops of the British army has arrived under the city of Guangzhou, this time, it is an open attack, so the middle ** in the city can see it clearly, and immediately defend and resist.

The British army was a little surprised, because the commander said that the vanguard of more than 4,000 people did not attack here, Lieutenant General Barry also confidently said that the attack of these 4,000 people will definitely be successful, the worst is that it can disrupt the defense system of the squadron, causing most of the opportunities to rush to the battle, it can be said that the second batch of 11,000 troops, as long as they go to the city, can easily win,

However, they were greeted by the majestic and angry faces on the city walls, the barrels of the rifles that were densely packed, and the long barrels of the cannons.

I was very surprised in my heart, so the commander ordered to send several cavalry units to find those troops, and at the same time, without saying a word, directly attacked the city.

The British army of 11,000 men besieged the south gate of the city of Canton and bombarded it with the mountain artillery they carried, and then, hundreds of infantry, lined up piece by piece.

On the head of the city of Guangzhou, the air waves set off by the explosion of the cannonballs made a dull roar, and a small number of Chinese people were hit, killed and wounded.

The squadron did not fight back, but only guided the troops and civilians down the city wall in large numbers, dodging and dodging.

This is not only a show of weakness, but also a reduction in casualties, hoping that the British army will advance faster and die more crazy,

General Liang Chengcai personally sat on the south wall of the city, braving the bombardment of the British army, observing the enemy's movements.

After a burst of bombardment, the British army sent soldiers to attack, released guns in a row, and soon forced to a place of fifty meters, and then, thirty meters,

There were not many people on the city wall of the squadron, but they all carried a large number of grenades, and when the British army entered ten meters and almost reached the bottom of the city, they lit and threw them.

On the width of 500 meters, the countless queues of the British troops were so orderly that they were outrageous, but in the west of this dense bomb attack, there were heavy casualties, and the dozen columns of officers and soldiers in front were almost blown up, and the few remaining elements had to abandon their weapons and turn around and flee.

The British army was unwilling to lose, and only then began to fight, which was a small setback, so the troops behind continued to press up, and also expanded the width, hoping to suppress the middle ** on the city with dense bullets, and then, their mountain artillery began to bombard again,

The number of mountain artillery of the British army is quite a lot, it is estimated that there are 100 guns, so when the bombardment towards the middle **, the damage caused is not small, after half an hour of intensive bombardment, at least 100 people were killed and wounded in the **, and this, it is still the result of strict dispersion and concealment, and in the city, a large number of houses were destroyed, or fires were ignited, and hundreds of people were killed and wounded.

Liang Chengcai became worried,

His mortars didn't want to be used too early, there were so many enemies, he didn't dare to let go of a fight, he was worried that his shells would not be enough to use, so, after thinking about it again, he opened the city gate and personally led more than 1,500 people, an infantry regiment, to launch a counterattack against the British army,

The attack of the squadron is a skirmisher line, even if it comes out of the city gate, it is also sparse, and it definitely does not give the enemy a chance to bombard, and moreover, dozens of mortars are pulled up to the city, bombarding the enemy's mountain artillery, and even bombarding the enemy's infantry, suppressing the British army and covering the infantry's movements.

The British army was naturally very excited when they saw the counterattack of the Chinese army, and the Chinese army was significantly less than the British army, so at the beginning, the British army just retreated, and when the middle ** approached, they released the large army and fully surrounded the center.

It's a pity that the straggler line of the middle ** makes an infantry regiment of more than 1,500 people look extraordinarily large and occupy a place, and the British mountain artillery really can't find a place to drop maggots, because it is too wasteful of shells to make a random sensation.

The British army is more adept, thousands of cavalry, what kind of concept is this, is it easy for me to use merchant ships to transport horses or something?

The cavalry appeared, the British army's military uniform was very spirited, and when the Chinese ** continued to attack shamelessly, the British cavalry attacked,

The battle unfolded eight hundred meters south of the city, and the British army, which was frightened by the momentum of the ** attack, had to retreat in order to avoid the bombardment of the ** shells in the city.

The British army felt that although the skirmish line of the middle ** could avoid a key attack, it had no combat effectiveness and was rushed by the cavalry and ended immediately, so the British commander released the cavalry troops.

Thousands of cavalry, against 1,500 infantry, under normal circumstances, it is rare to compare, the British cavalry is in the whole team, a row of skins to charge, the squadron has attacked, 300 meters apart, don't fight, anyway, the squadron's rifle range is 800 meters,

In the case of passivity, the British army bombarded the infantry with mountain artillery, and at the same time, the cavalry charged,

The squadron endured the enemy's shells, and the troops in the city immediately bombarded as soon as they saw that the infantry was being bullied, and as a result, the British artillery suffered a lot of casualties.

Advancing while shooting, the skirmish line of the middle ** actually attacked first,

At a distance of 200 meters, the British cavalry fell a large piece, at a distance of 100 meters, the British army died again, and at a distance of 50 meters, the bullets of the squadron were rained down, and they were even more intensive.

Infantry fights cavalry, what is fatal is firepower, the cavalry target is too big, really fighting, as long as the infantry has enough bullets and, it can win quickly, as a result, when the British cavalry of 1,000 people rushed to thirty meters, only three hundred people remained, and these thirty meters became the closest distance,

The lieutenant general lit the grenade and threw it towards the enemy, while the other officers and soldiers continued to shoot, and the squadron fired so fast that the British had never imagined, because the weapons were different.

The English cavalry fell in large numbers, as if they were harvesting wheat.

Because of the stumbling corpses in front, a large number of British cavalry were tripped and killed and wounded, and under the bombardment of grenades, the British troops did not encounter such terrible fire, but only turned around and fled,

The infantry of the ** in the ** fired, hunted the enemy, and when the British cavalry returned, more than 1,000 people, only more than 50 remained, almost all the army was wiped out,

Seeing that the battlefield was successful, Zhao Liewen sent an infantry regiment and a cavalry company to help Liang Chengcai, and also carried forty mortars, and the cannons on the city wall also continued to bombard, when the reinforcements arrived, they launched a counterattack on the hesitant British army,

The British fired, bombarded, medium ** shot bombardment, which lasted twenty minutes,

There are corpses everywhere, blood everywhere,

The British army was defeated,

The efficiency of mortars is at least three times that of the British mountain artillery, and the rifle is at least three times that of the British army, so the squadron has an absolute advantage, although there are only 3,000 people in the middle and 10,000 in the British army, but when it comes to contact, the advantage of the middle ** is unshakable.

More than 500 people were killed and wounded, and more than 3,000 British troops were killed and wounded.

The dense queue of the British troops, under the bombardment of the Chinese artillery, was simply looking for death, a large group of deaths,

After fighting for a while, General Liang Chengcai ordered to advance, so the squadron advanced while shooting, forcing the British army,

Dozens of mortars suppressed the British army, and black smoke billowed everywhere on the British positions, and many people could not see the command of the military flag, and many more people coughed,

Not only is the advantage in shooting, but the loose front is an important factor in reducing casualties, and the queue of the British army is simply a formation created in order to be beaten, which is the rhythm of looking for death.
