Zhang Zhongming, the governor of Ganning, saw the sudden changes in the battlefield clearly.

The city, which was still full of gunfire just now, suddenly quieted down. Huang Yongzhong, the deputy general standing beside him, couldn't help but shout: "My lord...... The Haw Par Army was repulsed by us, and we won......"

Compared with Huang Yongzhong's excitement and optimism, Zhang Zhongming is much calmer.

Although for the sake of the earthen fort in front of him, the 15,000 Ganning New Army that he had worked hard to train had lost almost one-third of his troops.

In Zhang Zhongming's view, if the Haw Par Army was so easy to defeat, they would not have defeated the imperial court officials and troops again and again, and defeated the Houjin Tartars......

Besides, according to his own visual observations, there are at least 800 people in the Haw Par Army defending the city......

With so many Haw Par troops, how could they collapse without a fight?

Since it is not a self-defeating without a fight, the remaining Tiger and Leopard Army in the fort must be really brewing a huge conspiracy against themselves.

However, even if Zhang Zhongming vaguely guessed this, all he could do was to order his subordinates to continue to attack forward, regardless of the casualties. Because, the time left for him by the reinforcements of the Haw Par Army is running out......

Sure enough, as soon as the attacking troops rushed to the city gate, they encountered an ambush by the Tiger and Leopard Army.

Without even seeing the shadow of the Haw Par Army, they lost more than 100 people......

In the face of this result, Zhang Zhongming was more firm in his judgment, and at the same time, he also realized that the Haw Par Army was planning to use the tactics and tactics that he had used to deal with them, and in turn against himself......

However, what Zhang Zhongming didn't expect was. This one is based on the buildings of the city. A tactical method of fighting the enemy at close range. He didn't invent it.

The veterans of the Tiger and Leopard Army who once followed Wei Zheng all knew that when facing the elite of the Houjin Army, Wei Zheng had used this tactic more than once to attack the Houjin Iron Cavalry, which had the advantage of strength and equipment.

It's just that the officers at or above the regimental level who can participate in the decision-making of the Fifth Army of the Haw Par Army are all from the imperial court and don't know.

At this moment, if it is not the Fifth Army that is confronting Zhang Zhongming. It's the First Army......

The losses of the Tiger and Leopard Army in the entire offensive will definitely not be so great......

Of course, there are no ifs and no ifs in this world. Officers above the Fifth Legion level, although there were no old men who followed Wei Zheng from the beginning. However, in the army, there are quite a few battalion and company commanders from the first three armies, who have experienced these battles as ordinary soldiers and even squad and platoon leaders. I still remember some of the trajectories that Wei Zheng used in this tactical method back then......

And the abandonment of the city gates at the moment, taking advantage of the pride and eagerness of the attacking troops. Inflicting a large number of casualties on them in the city gate cave was the idea of a regiment and a battalion commander.

As for this battalion commander, there is no doubt that he is a veteran who has been following the guard since Zunhua......

Seeing that the new army of Gan Ning, who was constantly pouring into the city gate to die, finally retreated, the battalion commander's face was full of heat, and he quickly returned to calm.

Without thinking about it, he ordered the musket platoon participating in the battle beside him: "Retreat immediately, the other party has found out, and if you continue to stay here, you won't be able to achieve much success......"

Speaking of this, the battalion commander suddenly appeared in the South China Sea, a picture of what he had experienced.

His eyes lit up, and he added: "Wait a minute, retreat to retreat, we must leave something, we must not let the new army of Ganning occupy this place so easily......"

"A few of you go and prepare a few explosives bags, ask for a large explosive bag of twenty catties, and then find me a sleepy fire rope and a few incense candles, I will be of great use......"

After the order was given, the battalion commander's eyes began to search the battlefield for the most suitable place to place the bombing point, but not easy to find.

Soon, a corner came into view of the battalion commander...... At the same time, what the battalion commander wanted was also found......

After glancing at the puzzled subordinates around him, the battalion commander said directly: "Brothers, learn something from me, these things I learned from the prince back then, and in many cases, they can even be used to save my life......"

After speaking, under the gaze of more than a dozen pairs of eyes, the influence began to arrange the explosion point......

In the absence of an automatic firing device, the battalion commander laid out the bombing point very simple and very primitive......

The leads of several explosive packets were all tied to a single fire rope according to their length.

As for the end of the arquebus, it was inserted into a pile of loose gunpowder.

Next to the gunpowder, there was a lit incense candle tied to it with a thin thread that was hard to find.

As for this thin line, it is the key to touching the whole explosion point.

After the Ganning New Army touched the thin line, under the traction of the thin line, the lit incense candles would definitely be poured on the gunpowder......

Dry gunpowder, with only a little spark, can burn it quickly. And the light produced by the burning of gunpowder is just right to ignite the arquebus inserted in the gunpowder pile......

When the inquiring rope is ignited, it means that several explosive packets are ignited......

Several twenty-pound loads of explosives were piled on top of each other, and piles of broken stones were piled on top of them.

Once such an explosion occurs, its power is absolutely beyond imagination...... Not to mention more, all the Ganning New Army within the range of the surrounding five battles will be blown into corpses......

Under the gaze of dozens of pairs of admiring eyes, the entire explosion point will be arranged. The battalion commander spoke again: "Brothers, the power of these explosives packs is very great. Within a radius of five battles, no matter how many Ganning New Army gathered, they would be blown up completely......"

"So, what we need to do next is to let as many of the new Ganning troops who enter the city gather here as possible......"

"My idea is to set up another barricade fifty paces behind, block all the Ganning New Army entering the city, and strive for an explosion to reimburse hundreds of Ganning New Army ......."

You don't need to pay too much loss to destroy your opponent piece by piece, which is definitely what every Haw Par Army soldier wants to do.

So, for the orders of the battalion commander, everyone carried them out to the letter......

The Haw Par Army, which retreated into the city, began to arrange one conspiracy after another for the Ganning New Army.

Zhang Zhongming, the governor of Ganning, has already issued a new round of offensive orders to his soldiers.

Abandon the gates, pass the guò ladder, and send the musketeers to the head of the city...... Under the cover of muskets, the attack into the city continued.

In Zhang Zhongming's thoughts, among all the buildings in the fort, the city wall must be the best.

As long as the Haw Par Army rises inside the city and the musketeers who occupy the city walls under their command, they can be condescended to eliminate them.

And the sword and shield men who attack specifically can compress the living space of the tiger and leopard army little by little under the cover of musketeers. Finally, destroy them with grenades and occupy the entire earthen fort...... (To be continued......)
