392 My strategy, you don't understand

"Kill!"

The dragoons, who had already been prepared, shouted in unison, pulled out their swords and slashed at the defenders of Mangita City beside them. They thought that they were unintentional, and they were elite to average, and they were superior in numbers, so they naturally had the upper hand, but they killed the defenders in the caves of the city gates.

At this time, the firewood and grass on the carts were violently lifted, and countless sturdy men wearing military uniforms and holding sharp blades in their hands rushed out of them, and they did not make a sound, and quickly rushed into the city gate and cave.

The old spray also reacted very quickly, shouting: "Quick, put a signal, there is an enemy stealing ......"

Before he finished speaking, he had already frozen in his throat, and he felt a sharp pain in his chest, and he trembled and reluctantly looked down, and found that a blood hole had appeared in his chest, and blood was gurgling out of it. He only felt that it was dark in front of him, and he was no longer conscious.

Xu Nanjin withdrew the divine arm crossbow in his hand and said loudly: "Brothers, charge with me, the foot brothers behind, you occupy the city head and the city gate!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

The crowd agreed.

Xu Nanjin's battle in Fusang to the extreme has long spread throughout the army, and everyone is very convinced of him, since he was injured by Lian Zining, he has risen all the way, and now he is the thousand households of the pro-guard battalion and Shi Dazhu's deputy. And this attack, which is to assist Zhang Shisan, also has the meaning of surveillance.

The Hong Dynasty ruled the army strictly, and the combat effectiveness of these border troops was still quite well preserved, and the response was also very fast.

There was a military camp of 400 households stationed inside the West Gate, and they quickly reacted, organized troops, and killed this side. Before they could be killed, a rain of arrows was spilled, but fortunately the dragoons were well armed, and this round only killed a few dragoons.

**Jin Hehe smiled and said to Zhang Shisan: "The surname is Zhang, I heard that you are quite capable of fighting, let's compare?" ”

Zhang Shisan was not angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to offend him, and said with a smile: "I also have this intention." ”

"Good!" Jin laughed: "Sons, kill!" Let them taste the power of our crossbows! ”

Everyone agreed, and took out the Divine Arm Crossbow that had been loaded with hard arrows one after another, and pulled the mechanism.

Hundreds of hard arrows were fired, killing at least two hundred defenders at once, some of them missed, but some of them killed more than one person.

Those defenders have been beaten, this is not over, after shooting the crossbow arrows, the dragoon pulled out the five thunder god machines from the pocket, after a crackling gun, in the open space inside the west gate, there are few defenders left.

There was no hand-to-hand combat at all, and with long-range damage alone, the defenders of these four hundred households had been wiped out.

**Jin Hehe smiled: "Lao Zhang, what's the matter, how many did you kill?" I just shot two and killed four! ”

Zhang Shisan laughed dryly, and salivated with envy for the equipment of the dragoons.

Then, according to Lian Zining's previous order, Jin did not continue to advance, but stuck on the spot, waiting for the foot soldiers behind to come.

At this time, the defenders on the city walls were also cleared.

Their task was successfully accomplished, and the west gate of Mangita City was firmly held in their hands.

Seeing that they had completed so smoothly, Lian Zining immediately changed his mind and ordered the artillery Qianhu Station to come out of the mountains and forests, all the way to the east, and advance to the south gate 500 meters away.

At this time, Xiong Tingbi's first guard had already come out of the hidden mountain forest and killed towards the west gate, which had been wide open.

After the artillery Qianhu advanced to 500 meters outside the south gate, Lian Zining also gave the order to open fire.

Lian Zining has long had the idea of forming an artillery thousand households, but before that, one was limited to manpower, and the other was limited to the pattern, and he has not been able to do so.

The 1,000 artillery units have 15 100 households under their jurisdiction, each of which has more than 120 people, and each 100 households does not have a general flag, but has direct jurisdiction over 10 small flags, each with 12 people, and has three artillery groups and four people in one artillery group.

Among the thousands of artillery households, there is only a Franc machine gun, and there is no tiger squat cannon, because what Lian Zining deliberately built is a powerful long-range attack force.

A thousand households, four hundred and fifty Franc cannons, has already depleted the inventory of the Gonzalez Firearms Bureau.

And these 450 Franc cannons are all carefully built copper with a thick wrought iron body, which is more wear-resistant, and it is not easy to blow up, and the firing range is longer.

More than 400 cannons are placed side by side outside the city, which is extremely spectacular.

Lian Zining gave an order, the gunners lit the fuse, there was a loud bang, the earth seemed to be trembling, countless loud noises converged together, Lian Zining was almost shocked to the point of losing his hearing, only to feel that there was a shaking in front of him, as if the picture was shattered.

In the smoke of gunpowder, countless cannonballs smashed towards the south gate of Mangita City.

This time, the coordinates were adjusted to spread from the south wall to a mile and bomb at will.

Lian Zining knows that within this range, there must be a lot of private houses, and under the shelling, it is inevitable that there will be heavy losses for the people, but this is also a last resort, if you are afraid of hurting the people, then how can this battle be fought?

Countless shells fell on the southern city of Mangita City.

The rebels who were originally guarding the south gate saw these enemies fiddling with these black cylinders outside, and they were still a little amused in their hearts, and they thought to themselves what kind of thing this was.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, it became a deadly Grim Reaper.

The lead weighing five taels and nine coins smashed on the city wall, and immediately smashed the bluestone city wall into a hole the size of a basin, and the fine stone powder fell down one after another, with the hole as the center, dozens of huge cracks spread out to the surroundings. smashed on the battlements of the city wall, smashed on the women's wall, and immediately smashed the battlements to crack, and then with a loud bang, it became a piece of rubble.

Just one round of shelling smashed the city wall to pieces.

The soldiers guarding the walls were already covered in heavy shelling, and I don't know how many people were hit by the splashed stones, and the most unfortunate ones were those who were directly hit by the shells. In front of the iron ball, which has been endowed with tremendous kinetic energy and has become red due to rapid friction, the body's defense power is almost negligible.

A soldier was grazed in the arm, and the whole arm was immediately broken into two parts, and the white stubble and bright red flesh exposed by the wound were immediately scorched black, and the red blood vessels and white tendons of the wound were twisted by the high temperature, like dying earthworms. And the person behind him was even more unlucky, he was hit in the chest by the inexhaustible cannonball, and immediately smashed a large hole the size of a bowl in his chest, the sternum was shattered, and the internal organs in the chest and abdomen also turned into charcoal in an instant, and he died directly without snorting.

After killing two people, the cannonball seemed to be unwilling, and it smashed the thigh of an unlucky ghost again, and then it fell to the ground.

The tower was hit by dozens of shells, and in an instant it was smashed with holes, the windows were smashed, and several pillars that were used as load-bearing were also broken, and finally collapsed with a bang.

The entire city wall, after the shelling, was already in ruins, full of broken walls, broken human bodies everywhere, and hardly a living person could be seen.

And in the city, which Lian Zining and others can't see, it is even more tragic.

The two barracks stationed behind the south gate were also covered indiscriminately, the barracks collapsed, and half of the officers and men of the four hundred households were stoned to death with almost no defense. Most of them were stoned to death by collapsed barracks, while the rest were stoned to death by shells.

Some of the houses hit by the shells broke a big hole, and some collapsed directly, and the streets were originally full of people coming and going, and many people were rushing to the market, but they did not expect the shells to fall on their heads.

I don't know how many people were stoned to death.

Lian Zining stared at the scene on the city wall, and his face was a little unfinished.

Compared to this era, this kind of artillery that fires solid shells is naturally very powerful, but for him, it is not enough to see, and he doesn't look down on this thing at all, after all, compared to the endless giant artillery in later generations, this is only a primary product. And the solid shell causes damage, more rely on the method of smashing, if it hits, it will kill, and if it misses, it will be in vain. This is really not the same as the artillery of later generations, which caused damage through explosions after landing.

Such a large shell, if it is an explosion, can cover the ground within a radius of three meters, and the enemy troops within this range will either be killed or wounded. And now it can only be smashed, how many can you smash to death?

Lian Zining had already explained it and asked Gonzalez to study it, but he also knew in his heart that compared to the technical level of this era, this was almost an insurmountable subject, but there was just a glimmer of hope.

The one million taels of silver that Lian Zining brought back from Beijing this time and the 800,000 taels of silver allocated by the imperial court seem to be a lot, but they may not last long. Fortunately, the Northeast is extremely rich, and you don't need to spend money to eat and drink, otherwise maybe the silver will flow away like water.

"Loaded! Keep bombing, don't stop! Lian Zining handed this place over to Liu Zhen, the deputy commander of the pro-military battalion, and then took Shi Dazhu to supervise the battle outside the West Gate surrounded by a team of guards.

As the ligature flag fluttered in the wind, the heralds of each unit turned to this side, and the news on the battlefield was passed to Lian Zining one by one.

Xiong Tingbi's first guard had firmly occupied the west gate, and as he had done in the last attack on the Qileni guard, he had advanced eastward along the main road with an arrow from a thousand households.

Mangita City was originally the Yamen of Zhixian County, and now it has been changed into a general's mansion by Hong Chaojiao.

When the shouting and killing sound came from the west gate, Hong Chaojiao had already realized that something was wrong.

But before he could react, he heard the earth-shattering sound of artillery bombardment coming from the direction of the south gate.

This made him a little confused, could it be that the enemy broke through from the west gate and the south gate together?

He immediately ordered his own soldiers to contact several military camps in the city, and summoned a few powerful thousand households under him to discuss the matter. Then he sent a small force to inquire about the news, although he was summoned in his heart, but he was not so flustered, after all, there were two defenders of the east gate and the south gate, plus the troops under the city, it was six hundred households, even if it was a large attack by blocking people, it would always be able to support it for a while!

Hong Chaojiao paced in the hall with a calm face, and the sound of hurried footsteps outside came, and a mournful voice was heard in the distance: "My lord, it's not good! ”

A hint of gloom flashed on Hong Chaojiao's face, and he walked to the door and scolded the rushing spies: "What are you panicking about? I'll get twenty sticks later! ”

The spy pounced forward, slipped more than a meter away from the ground, and said with a sad face: "My lord, something is wrong!" The west gate has been occupied, and I don't know how many people are coming down the street towards us. It's less than two miles away from the Yamen! Outside the south gate, the enemy erected I don't know how many cannons, the south gate city buildings have been blown up, the south gate is dozens of zhang away, it has been razed to the ground, I don't know how many shells whizzed down, we didn't dare to come over to see! ”

"What? The West Gate and the South Gate are lost? That's a fart kung fu! What about the old squirt? What about the defenders? Are they all decorations? Hong Chaojiao only felt that it was dark in front of him, and he almost fainted, and asked angrily.

"The entire south gate has been blown up inside and out, and the defenders of the 600 households must be not good. Simon's also hangs! It's Wu Yijun, they're ......," the spy muttered.

Hong Chaojiao forced himself to be quiet, all the spies turned around, bad news came one after another, the west gate was lost, the south gate became a piece of rubble, Wu Yi's army had almost occupied half of the west city, and was rapidly advancing to this side, the soldiers sent to block it were under the muskets and cannons of Wu Yi's army, suffering heavy casualties, and there was no way to fight back.

Hong Chaojiao slammed his fist on the pillar, and the force was too strong, which directly caused the skin to crack and the blood flowed out drop by drop, and he was still unaware.

But there is good news, several powerful thousands of households under his command have been summoned, and he counted the troops at hand.

Because he occupied two cities, Hong Chaojia divided his 8,000 troops into two halves, and there were only 4,000 people in Mangita City—the two cities were facing each other, which was originally a clever plan, but that was when the troops were sufficient. Eight thousand troops are not enough to defend one city, let alone two, and in this case, it is a bit stupid.

There is no need to count on the 12 hundred households at the west gate and the south gate, nor can the 12 hundred households at the west gate and the north gate be mobilized, and there are only more than 1,600 people left who can be mobilized.

But these 1,600 soldiers are all cavalry, they are extremely mobile elites, and they are the trump cards of Hong Chaojiao.

"Damn, since you Wu Yijun dare to attack Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will not be polite to you!" Hong Chaojiao immediately ordered to lead his troops to the south gate.

His calculations are very shrewd, the shelling outside the south gate is estimated to be long-range troops, and if the officer is close, you will be useless, and I will kill your artillery without leaving a piece of armor, and then go around to the west gate and catch you off guard from behind.

He was wishful thinking, but he found that the road leading to the south gate was impossible to walk at all, and the people on the street were in chaos, crying, running, pushing, I don't know how many people were trampled to death, and it was chaotic. For they found that many of the people dressed up suddenly took out of their burdens the tinder and oil, and poured it on the buildings on both sides, and immediately set it on fire. After a while, near the west gate, it had already turned into a sea of fire!

Needless to say, these jobs were naturally done by the agents of MI6, and Wang Posan was dressed as an oil seller this time, carrying a flat shoulder on his shoulder, and an oil drum at one end. He pretended to be in a panic and ran around, while sneaking around, and when he saw where the fire was not too hot, he immediately poured a spoonful of oil on it.

There are a lot of sneaky people like him, and they all got in a few days ago or early this morning.

Originally, the strength of dozens of people was limited, but the timing they chose was very appropriate, as soon as they heard that a large army was coming, the people were already very panicked, and the defenders had no effective measures to maintain order. Today is the last day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and there are many people in the city, and people are panicking, pushing and trampling on each other, blocking the road and aggravating the chaos.

When Hong Chaojia came here, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, in front of him was a sea of burning fire and countless chaotic people, and the road to the south gate was not open at all.

In desperation, he had to order a turnaround and lead the army to kill in the direction of the west gate.

Afraid of the prestige of the Wu Yi Army, although he was very confident in the elite of the border army under his command, Hong Chaojia did not dare to divide his troops.

Soon, he saw Wu Yijun, to be precise, he should have seen the forest of spears standing tall.

Seeing the moving forest, those calm and powerful soldiers, they walked step by step, step by step towards the front, firm as a mountain, but gave people a feeling of being unstoppable under the high wall.

Hong Chaojiao couldn't help but praise in his heart, he was really elite, and Wu Yijun's reputation was well deserved!

But Hong Chaojiao didn't take the opponent to heart, the infantry is infantry after all, no matter how strong it is, it is also infantry, and in the face of cavalry, there is a natural disadvantage. And the 1,600 cavalry under his command are all elite border troops wearing cotton armor and well-armed.

"Shoot!" When Wu Yijun was still dozens of steps away, Hong Chao gave an order, and a dense rain of arrows splashed towards Wu Yijun on the opposite side.

"Akira!" Seeing the rain of arrows coming, the officers of the pikemen and the hundred households ordered loudly, and the soldiers behind the third platoon poked their spears on the ground and kept shaking the barrels, and the barrels made of ash poles with good elasticity shook and the tips of the guns shook with them. As soon as the rain of arrows fell, they were knocked away by the shaking tips of the spears, and except for a few unlucky ones, this round of arrow rain did not cause any damage.

Hong Chaojiao's face changed at the moment, but the matter had come to this point, and he just had to shout: "Rush! ”

The cavalrymen held their spears flat, clamped the back half of the barrel in the crook of their arms, held the barrel of the spear in their left hand to fix it, and slammed it into the phalanx of spears.

The pikemen in the first few rows, as they had been trained during the training, had put their spears on the ground, their bodies in an oblique bow, their left knees in front of them, their right hands firmly grasped the rear end of the guns, and their left hands fixed the middle of the guns, and the spears pointed to the sky at an angle of thirty degrees to the ground.

And the pikemen behind them were also in this posture, but the angle of the spears was a little too high, and suddenly, the entire phalanx of spears turned into a huge steel hedgehog.

The cavalry slammed into the Wuyi army formation.

There was no earth-shattering noise, only a huge amount of blood splashed in an instant, the painful screams of the soldiers before they died, the mournful screams of Herod, the sound of the human body falling heavily to the ground, and the crisp sound of the gun breaking.

The cavalry that hit the front was almost completely annihilated, because the spear phalanx of the Wu Yi Army was extremely dense, and each of them, every horse, had to face several or even a dozen sharp spear tips, and the spears pierced the cotton armor heavily, and the sharp spear tips rubbed against the iron armor leaves outside the three-layer foam nail cotton armor, making a creaking and squeaking sound, which made people listen to the suppression. Then it pierced the human body again, and in the muffled sound of sharp breaking flesh and blood, a huge amount of blood gushed out, instantly making these cavalrymen a bloody man. Then the Wu Yi soldiers pulled back, pulled out their spears, and continued to stab.

And some cavalrymen were pierced with countless flesh holes on their bodies and fell heavily to the ground.

And Wu Yijun's side was not without losses, some soldiers were hit by the huge impact force and leaned back, and some soldiers were even stabbed into the chest by the other end of the spear shaft and died on the spot.

However, after their deaths, the robe in the back was immediately mended and stabilized again.

The first round of impact ended in a complete defeat for Hong Chaojiao's side.

Hong Chaojiao looked at this scene, his face was full of disbelief, and then the next moment, he let out an angry roar: "Kill! Kill! ”

The cavalry rushed towards Wu Yi's army like a tide, and Dong Ce also issued an order: "The whole army is allowed to advance and not retreat, and those who take a step back will be killed!" ”

The impact is like a raging wave, continuous, and has already hit several waves.

Under the huge impact, the first few rows were also a little unbearable. They had already resisted several successive onslaughts, and the spears of the soldiers were broken, and finally, under another onslaught, the pikemen of that section were completely slain, revealing a gap of a foot wide, which was broken through by the cavalry of the Hong Dynasty.

Hong Chaojiao showed a fanatical look in his eyes, shouted loudly, and led the soldiers to fight towards the gap.

But he soon found that all that he had done was in vain.

There are more than 1,700 people in a thousand households in the Wu Yi Army, including seven pikemen and 100 households, and the streets of this Mangjita City are only a few zhang wide, and only a few people can be placed on one floor? From this, we can imagine how thick the spear phalanx is, and the cavalry of Hong Chaojiao broke through to one layer or two, or even three or four layers, but behind, there are still many layers.

With their onslaught, Wu Yi's army phalanx was knocked back by the continuous rushing cavalry, but it quickly stabilized its position, and the cavalry had lost their impact, not only could no longer break through, but were surrounded by pikemen.

Dong Ce stood on a roof on the side of the street, stared at the situation in the distance, and gave an order: "Order a few hundred households in front, hold up in the middle, outflank forward, and bring in three hundred people for me!" I'm going to wrap this one in dumplings! ”

"Yes, sir!" The herald walked away.

As Dong Ce's order was carried out, the pikemen in the middle withstood the cavalry attack, while the two wings flanked forward.

Hong Chaojiao found that unconsciously, the pikemen on the opposite side had changed from the defensive side to the attacking side, while his own side had become the defensive side. Although he had the advantage of numbers and the natural superiority of cavalry over infantry, due to the limitations of the terrain, this battle was a mess.

At this time, he wanted to get out, but he was shocked to find that all sides of him were Wu Yijun. Those who were wrapped in the cavalry array couldn't engage the enemy at all, and the cavalry on the periphery was that everyone had to face a few dozen Wu Yi army spears!

Hong Chaojiao only felt aggrieved and wanted to cry.

It's no wonder that others, Wu Yi's army is all foot soldiers, but the army with a reasonable composition of all arms is best at street fighting, which is a battle in the city, and the cavalry plays the best in field battles. It is really unwise for Hong Chao to attack the enemy's strengths with his own shortcomings.

At this time, it was like wanting to fall into a quagmire, and it was difficult to get out.

The pikemen have been fully surrounded, and Hong Chaojiao found that there were also shouts of killing from his flank, obviously the enemy army found out that there was a battle here, and flanked this side!

"General, call for reinforcements! Don't call it anymore, when these Wu Yi troops are surrounded, we will all be finished! A thousand households hissed and shouted.

Yaoqi's station and Mangita City are sister cities, the distance is only four or five miles away, and reinforcements are within a moment, and Yaoqi stands in the north of Mangita City, and the north gate is now under the control of his own people, and it is also convenient to increase troops.

Hong Chaojiao pondered for a moment and said, "No, let's see again!" I always felt that something was wrong! ”

Dong Ce stared at the situation on the battlefield, and looked at him at a glance. The enemy cavalry was already in a bad battle, and the friendly forces were about to close, and he realized that now was the time for a decisive battle!

He said in a deep voice, "Order! The pikemen on both wings pressed forward, the pikemen in the center retreated, the tiger squatting cannon in front, and the flintlock pistol in the back, luring the enemy forward, and as soon as they entered the firing range, they immediately opened fire! ”

Before the words fell, a group of cavalry rushed in the distance, Dong Ce saw clearly, the leader was a general banner in the dragoons of the pro-army battalion, and the dragoons turned around to protect Lian Zining after they made the great achievement of capturing the city, and did not participate in the battle.

The general banner came to Dong Ce and arched his hand and said: "Dong Qianhu, on the orders of my uncle, I ordered your troops not to attack with all their strength for the time being, but only need to entangle with the enemy, and within half an hour, you must not defeat the enemy army!" ”
