Chapter 320: Siege from all sides

Twist the army camp.

Han Laowan was really aggrieved, more than 20,000 people attacked the city, and there was no progress in the slightest, not only that, but also asked the cavalry of the Qing army to destroy four of the only five cannons on their side, as for the shells, there are not a few rounds now, damn it, these people are definitely prepared, they are going to destroy our artillery!

However, grievances are grievances, and now that there is no artillery, how can we attack the city? Obviously, Jinan City is not as easy to take down as imagined, but the Qing army still has foreign guns in their hands, and what about themselves, not to mention foreign guns, even bird guns are not few!

Han Laowan regretted it a little, he originally thought that there was no military force in Jinan City, but he didn't expect that it was a more difficult hard bone to gnaw, just looking at that team of cavalry, compared to his own cavalry, it was only stronger and not weaker, what about other forces, there was still a foreign spear team in their city! It's even more terrifying! With so many foreign guns, it will definitely bring a deadly threat to the Twist Army!

But, retreat? Now it's not so easy to think about retreating, it's been delayed for another two days, and two days is enough to make the encirclement arranged by the Qing army even tighter, and tens of thousands of people will sandwich their own twisted army in the middle, but what to do?

Take Jinan City, now it is a road to Huashan!

"Han Rang, what else do you have to do now?"

Han Laowan asked.

Han Rang sighed, he didn't expect Jinan City to be so difficult to fight, in one day, the casualties of the Twist Army had exceeded 1,000 people, and all of his artillery were destroyed, and now it is completely difficult to ride a tiger.

Han Rang pondered for a moment. He replied, "Banner Master." The situation now is. We don't know the reality of Jinan, we don't know how many troops there are in Jinan City, how to deploy them, and the generals who defend the city, and this newcomer's governor Guo Ye is known as General Fei, and he has never lost a war with foreigners......"

"Nonsense! Lao Tzu is asking you. What the hell is going to do now! It's not for you to analyze the situation for me! ”

Han Laowan shouted angrily.

Han Rang said helplessly: "Flag master, don't I think of another way?" ”

Well, Han Rang paused for a moment and then said: "Yes, banner master, now that we have strong troops, we can completely besiege Jinan City on all sides and launch an attack, first, we can test the weak points of Jinan City's defense, and second, we can also take a look." How many troops does Jinan City have, as long as you put a little pressure on him. Naturally, it will manifest itself! ”

Han Laowan nodded, now it can only be like this.

Han Rang continued: "Also, Banner Master, we now lack siege equipment, no artillery, and no enough city ladders, we must cut down trees as soon as possible and make a battering ram in order to break through the city gate of Jinan City, as long as the city gate is broken, the Qing army will definitely not be able to stop our attack!" ”

Han Laowan's eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Feng Xi, immediately mobilize your 1,000 troops, cut down trees for me, and make siege ordnance!" He Xiong, you will lead 4,000 troops to attack Dongcheng tomorrow; Yang Botao, who led 4,000 cavalry to attack the West Gate; Zhang Ji led 4,000 cavalry to attack the north gate; Han Rang, you and I will sit in Nancheng, and attack with all our strength early tomorrow morning, I don't believe it, this Jinan City is iron! ”

Han Laowan conveyed the order, and the next day, under the leadership of their respective generals, the Twist Army launched an attack on Jinan again!

The city was attacked from all sides, and the entire Jinan Mansion was plunged into war.

Lack of artillery support, the twist army with bows and arrows to the head of Jinan city to suppress the Qing army, a group of cavalry again to the Jinan city to charge, ladders upright, twist the army began to follow the ladder towards the head of Jinan city!

After all, it was a total of 20,000 people who launched an attack, and even if Guo Ye's training skills were high, it would not be so easy to repel the attack of the Twist Army.

The other cities are good to say, after all, the troops are abundant, but in the northern city, Kurha is in a bitter battle, more than 300 people under his command, are the cavalry of the monk Lingqin's personal guard, good at charging into battle, for the refusal of the city to defend, that is to sacrifice the strengths and weaknesses, and more than 300 people face the attack of 4,000 people, it is inevitable that the troops are stretched!

Kurha jumped straight to his feet, there are too many bandits, where can Lao Tzu's hundreds of people withstand this? In just half a day, there were already nearly 100 casualties!

Asking for help, at this time, you can only ask for help, the casualties are small, and losing the city is a big deal, that's a matter of losing your head!

Kurha asked someone to immediately send a letter to Guo Ye in the south, asking for assistance!

As a result, the person was not invited, but he brought a message from Guo Ye - the person did not, but Kurha was allowed to retreat backwards when he couldn't support it, don't fight to the death!

Kurha was stunned when he heard this, what do you mean? Let yourself grasp the opportunity and don't fight to the death?

How does this work? These are thousands of bandits, once they reach the top of the city, they are not easy to repel!

Send someone more!

As a result, the message brought back is still this, and it will definitely not give you more troops, but don't fight hard to minimize casualties......

Kurha was completely speechless, how could Lord Futai give such an unobtrusive order? I have the heart to run in person, but now that Beicheng is tight, where can I get out?

Top, right? Kurha gritted his teeth, there is no other way now, perhaps, it is indeed that Lord Futai has no soldiers to send, after all, compared to several other directions, the pressure on Beicheng is the least......

It's just that 300 people faced the offensive of 4,000 people, where was it so easy to withstand, and when the sun set, the Mongolian cavalry finally couldn't withstand it, and the casualties of the small 200 people made the entire city, only 100 people defended, and the defenders came over, and the bandits finally rushed to the city!

Kurha was about to fight desperately, but the battalion deputy on the side grabbed him: "Sir, don't be confused, Lord Futai wants you to save your troops!" We can't fight hard, retreat, retreat immediately! ”

Kurha suddenly woke up, yes, Lord Futai will withdraw when he can't stand it, although this is too embarrassing, but in order to keep the vitality of this cavalry battalion, he can only retreat temporarily, but it's a pity, this northern city......

Kurha was reluctant to stay and the brothers retreated, and in a short quarter of an hour, at least two or three hundred twisted bandits poured up above the city.

In the distance, when Kurha was so anxious that he stomped his feet, the sound of footsteps behind him sounded, and two teams of training infantry rushed up from the left and right!

Bang bang bang......

The gunshots rang out like popping beans! The twist bandits who had just climbed to the top of the city fell to the ground one after another, and the twist bandits who had just climbed to the top of the city were shocked by foreign guns and had to stop climbing the city! (To be continued.) )
