Although he was attacked by the Australian Cheng Biting Jin, who was killed halfway, Zhang Xianzhong did not give up attacking Shaoguan easily, but made a rest.

Originally, it was seen that Shaoguan City was about to be destroyed, but the Australians suddenly killed, but he was caught off guard, whether it was a peasant used as cannon fodder or the most combat-effective direct army, at this time it had already suffered a lot of heavy losses.

Zhang Xianzhong also realized that it may not be so simple to break through Shaoguan City again, the Australians have sharp firearms and are well-equipped, and it has been rumored that the Australians have extraordinary combat power in the past, and now it seems to be true, but he will never say this to his subordinates, this kind of words that affect morale, from his own mouth can imagine what the consequences will be.

Therefore, no matter what, Zhang Xianzhong will not mention the enemy's combat effectiveness, on the contrary, he will boost morale and let the soldiers make persistent efforts.

But it's not enough to boost morale, you have to find a way to break the city, the Australians are strong, relying on their powerful firearms, firearms are weakened by water, if there is a rain, it will be beautiful, God help me.

But looking at the wind outside, the sun and the moon and the sunny weather, Zhang Xianzhong frowned, if he wants to rain, I'm afraid he can't wait, he has to find another way.

The art of war is cloudy, avoid its sharpness, hit its laziness, now is the time when the Australians are vigorous, and it may be difficult to win, so Zhang Xianzhong decisively chose to rest in place, anyway, there are more than 100,000 people here, and there is no team around that who dares to fight with him.

The two sides confronted each other like this for two days, and Zhang Xianzhong's department did not move at all, but there was a sound of music from the barracks, which surprised the Australian secret agent, and guessed in his heart that Zhang Xianzhong would not attack Shaoguan.

"No, it's not that he doesn't attack, Zhang Xianzhong is using a trick to confuse us. Fun is just to paralyze us, and once we relax, he will inevitably send troops to the point. ”

WEI YAN DENIED THE SECRET AGENT'S SPECULATION, ALTHOUGH MOST OF THE HISTORICAL RECORDS OF ZHANG XIANZHONG'S MARCH AND BATTLE WERE ABSURD, BUT IN FACT, ACCORDING TO THE INTELLIGENCE COLLECTED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY, THIS IS NOT THE CASE.

Zhang Xianzhong read books when he was young, worked as a catcher and later joined the army, and has a certain study of the art of war.

Otherwise, among the many peasant rebels in the late Ming Dynasty, why could he hold out to the end. This must have something to do with his ability to command troops.

So believe the words in the history books, then you don't know how you died, this is a sentence that Liu Yun often admonishes his subordinates, although Australia has a certain record and file for historical celebrities in this period, but the investigation of their real situation, Liu Yun has never stopped.

We all know that history is something written by the victors, not to mention that as long as the historians use a Spring and Autumn penmanship, there will be a great deal of difference. It is necessary to find the true image of history and uncover their true purpose.

At this time, Wei Yan was able to deny it here, and it was entirely attributed to Liu Yun's original investigation results. The results of this survey, which at the time seemed laborious and useless, are now very useful.

Inform each squad leader to be responsible for vigilance and strictly prevent the enemy from sneaking up at night.

Since Wei Yan can sneak attack, Zhang Xianzhong can naturally do it. What's more, this tactic has been around since ancient times.

At this time, since Zhang Xianzhong wanted to make the Australians relax their vigilance by confusing the enemy, he must not have given up the idea of attacking Shaoguan.

It is not a way for the two sides to confront each other like this, and Zhang Xianzhong must be dealt with as soon as possible, but Zhang has more than 100,000 people. I am afraid that the strength of a battalion in Australia alone will not work, and Zhang Xianzhong is probably also trying to find a way to attack the city now.

Now it's up to us to see who comes up with the first solution, and whoever comes up with it will laugh at the end.

A long-term confrontation is out of the question. Zhang Xianzhong's grain and grass were insufficient, and if he wanted to continue south, he had to collect more grain and grass to maintain the stability of the army, and if he wanted to collect grain and grass, he would inevitably attack the surrounding counties and villages.

By this time, the enemy's forces were not concentrated, and it was the most appropriate way to attack in one fell swoop.

Wei Yan informed the staff officers and officers around him of his method, and everyone felt that this method was good after thinking about it for a while, although the number of the third company was the size of a battalion, it was definitely a little difficult for a few hundred people to fight against a hundred thousand people, not to mention that the other party was not a native of the Stone Age, they were a group of people who held cold weapons in their hands, and the most important thing was that the other party also had firearms in their hands.

You don't have to think about where Zhang Xianzhong's firearms came from, they must have flowed in from the Zheng family, and they purchased a large number of 26-pounder guns from Australia in the past year, most of which flowed into the hands of the Liaodong Border Army and the Later Jin.

As for the other part, it flowed into the hands of the peasant army, and the peasant army bought cannonballs, which were not as rich as Houjin and would buy shells again, while they made their own shells and filled them with their own earthen shells, not to mention that they could really be fired, but the performance was a little unstable and the power was not great.

But this is already very good, at least a lot of money can be saved to use it elsewhere, recruiting soldiers, buying major equipment is all needed money.

After a battle, Zhang Xianzhong will definitely realize the importance of firearms, and a big reason why the Australians can catch them off guard is the power of artillery.

The power of the artillery is indeed huge, and the defenders of Shaoguan relied on these artillery pieces for a week, if Zhang Xianzhong hadn't come up with a way to consume the enemy's ammunition, I am afraid that he would not be able to make the defenders of Shaoguan tremble in the end.

Influenced by this, Zhang Xianzhong immediately gathered the artillery and bird guns under his hands, and learned the methods of the Shaoguan defenders and the Australians to begin drills.

This change made Wei Yan feel shocked, it seems that under the effect of butterfly wings, many things have indeed changed, not to mention that the ancients were stupid, the ancients were smart, who said that they were not good at learning, and people are not human beings when they learn.

Seeing that Zhang Xianzhong has begun to form his own firearms unit, Wei Yan can't sit and confront each other like this, he has to take action, and it is definitely not a way to do this in the long run.

Therefore, he was ready to take the initiative to attack the enemy head-on, and give Zhang Xianzhong's troops a severe blow, so that he completely lost the confidence to attack Shaoguan and withdraw his troops.

However, it must be difficult to meet it head-on, it is estimated that all the spies and meticulous works outside the city are Zhang Ministry's spies, as long as they get out of the city, they will let him know his plan, but if he does not go out of the city, he will not be able to deal a blow to Zhang Xianzhong, under the dilemma, Wei Yan's staff officer Xiao Ruike gave a plan to lure the enemy deeper. Avoid its sharpness and hit its laziness (to be continued......)
