Chapter 227: The End of the Battle of the First Day
In fact, Yu Xiaotian himself also understands that the success of these gunners this time has a lot of luck, and the probability of this probability is very low, but he just let him run into it, which is either because his character is too good, or because Chu Cai's old man is too poor, in short, Chu Cailao is very unlucky, and he was accidentally killed by his subordinates and destroyed him with a big weapon.
He could even imagine what the expression on Chu Cai's old face looked like at this time, and it was estimated that if he touched his nose and was not distorted, his face would at least turn the color of pig liver.
So Yu Xiaotian was very happy, but Chu Cailao was very depressed, this time it was equivalent to cutting off half of Chu Cailao's long-range firepower, and the crisis of the walled wall was weakened by at least more than half.
And Yu Xiaotian also observed from the telescope that after his men destroyed a Chu Cailao cannon, another Hongyi cannon was slowly moving backwards under the impetus of a group of Chu Cailao's men, and it was obvious that the minions who operated the other cannon were also frightened at this time, and in order to keep their cannons, they had to push the cannon farther away again to prevent it from being hit by the sea wolf's cannon again.
With their artillery skills at this time, Yu Xiaotian can breathe a sigh of relief, they want to use only this cannon to destroy the sea wolf's Dazhai for a few more sections, it is estimated that unless they also have a big explosion of character at this time, and the farther the cannon firing, the less powerful the cannonball, once they retreat to a distance of one kilometer, even if their character explodes and accurately hits the wall, they may not be able to collapse the wall.
"Pass my orders and give the crew of this twelve-pounder cannon a great credit! The commander of the gun will award a bronze medal of loyalty and bravery, and the rest of the people can be awarded a bronze medal of loyalty and courage if they make meritorious service again! Yu Xiaotian was in a good mood at this time, and in order to motivate the other subordinates to work harder to kill the enemy, he ordered the crew of this twelve-pounder cannon to be rewarded for great merit.
Yu Xiaotian's order was immediately passed on to the ears of the meritorious gunners, and these guys were very happy, and one by one they thanked the big boss for their favor, and once again used all their strength, and began to operate the cannon again, and once again found the remaining Chu Cailao's Hongyi cannon and began to fire.
Chu Cailao's subordinates were finally retracted under his rectification, but they didn't dare to concentrate the personnel again, because the sea wolf's firepower covered a large area, and within four or five hundred meters was basically the area that their firepower could cover, especially they liked to fire at the place where the most people gathered, and their guns were sharp, which Chu Cailao's subordinates had already experienced, so although they were gathered here, they no longer dared to gather into a pile like before, but dispersed as much as possible, so as not to be hit by the sea wolf's cannon shots.
Before they could be regrouped, the gap in the wall of the Great Castle had been refilled, so they had lost a chance.
And the surviving Hongyi cannon, Chu Cailao, didn't dare to let it go too far forward, retreated nearly a hundred steps back, and spared no manpower to get some sandbags and rocks to build a simple fortification in front of this cannon, at least to prevent the sea wolf's cannonball from ricocheting and hurting the cannon.
Then the Hongyi cannon began to be fired again, but unfortunately, after the distance was shortened, the accuracy of this cannon became worse, and several consecutive rounds failed to hit the wall of the sea wolf village, and the shells were either high or low, which attracted a laugh from the sea wolf tribes.
And the twelve-pounder cannon of the sea wolf, it was obvious that there was no luck at this distance, and if it made any more achievements, the shells that returned fire were all off target, and the two sides entered another confrontation, and no one could help the other.
Although Chu Cailao urged his subordinates to start attacking the village, but now his subordinates have become extremely demoralized after suffering heavy casualties just now, and even the shopkeepers of each unit have begun to become cautious at this time, and they are no longer in a hurry to force these subordinates to rush forward without their lives.
Therefore, the next few attacks launched by Chu Cailao, under the fierce counterattack of the sea wolf troops, all left a group of corpses and wounded people, and returned in vain.
Before dark, Chu Cailao changed a method, and divided a part of his troops to go around to the south where the defense of the sea wolf village was relatively weak, and launched an attack on the south, but at this time, Chu Cailao's subordinates were already a little exhausted, and they didn't eat at noon.
Although Chu Cailao changed his tactics, the strength of their offensive was already quite weak, no one thought that at this time, they would not even see the sun tomorrow, and most of these minions no longer had any hope of attacking the stockade before dark, so they were slightly counterattacked by the sea wolf, and they began to retreat.
Chu Cai looked at the sky and knew that it was impossible to take Dazhai today, so although he was unwilling, he had to nod helplessly and ordered the troops to be withdrawn.
When he heard the sound of gold, all Chu Cailao's subordinates breathed a long sigh of relief, and began to run back like rabbits, Yu Xiaotian observed the speed of these guys fleeing back, and estimated that they could all participate in the Olympic Games, and they were very hopeful of winning medals.
After a day of fierce fighting, the battlefield was full of the corpses of Chu Cai's old men, and the sea wolf tribes inevitably sent people out of the village again before the sky completely darkened, and once again sent people to swagger out of the village, cleaned up the battlefield, and picked up some of the weapons abandoned by Chu Cai's old men on the battlefield in tatters, and then laughed loudly in the village, laughing at Chu Cai's incompetence.
Chu Cailao came down to attack the village for a day to no avail, counted the losses of his subordinates, and couldn't help but let him gasp, this day, he sent out his subordinates, only about seventy percent came back, and the remaining thirty percent were almost lost under the wall of the sea wolf, and the number of losses was as many as more than 500 people.
It was the first time for him Chu Cai to fight such a miserable defeat, he had never suffered such a big loss in attacking the county town on land before, no wonder his subordinates had collapsed many times, and in the face of such a tragic war, he himself was glad that his subordinates did not rebel.
So when the troops came back, Chu Cailao counted the losses, he didn't even fart, and he didn't reprimand the shopkeepers of his various units, but ordered to unload some wine and meat from the ship, bury the pot and cook rice to reward these subordinates.
Chu Cailao, as an old pirate, of course knows the truth that the Tao is extremely opposed, today his casualties are too miserable, and the morale has fallen into the crotch of his pants, if he is forced to force each other hard, not to mention that the minions will not do it, I am afraid that the various treasurers under his command will not do it, and it is possible to fall out on the spot.
So although he was anxious and angry in his heart, he didn't dare to force these subordinates hard, but pretended to go to his subordinates to comfort him gently.
After dark, he recruited the shopkeepers into his big tent, but when the people arrived, he found that there were two missing, and when he asked, he realized that these two shopkeepers could not come, because the shopkeepers of these two small shares, in today's attack on the village, were also folded under the wall, one was bombarded into slag on the spot by the sea wolf's cannon, and the other was splashed by the sea wolf's boiling oil, and was ignited by the fire, and burned directly into charcoal, and even his subordinates could not find his body.
Chu Cai sighed in his heart, it is not a big deal to die a shopkeeper, but two of them died at a time today, although these two shopkeepers are small shopkeepers, but this is also a big blow to him.
And these two small shares, as soon as the shopkeeper died, one person was directly merged by another large share, and the other small share, a new shopkeeper was elected, and he was waiting outside the account at this time.
Chu Cai Lao recruited the new shopkeeper into the account, comforted him with good words, and told him to follow him Chu Cai Lao in the future, there is still a way to make money.
Of course, the new shopkeeper has to express his determination to Chu Cai's old watch, and then meet with other shopkeepers and say hello, and after a period of noise, the big tent quieted down.
Chu Cailao said with a gloomy face: "You have all worked hard today, but we still haven't won this sea wolf village, but we have lost a lot of brothers!"
It seems that we all underestimate this surnamed Yu and his subordinates, but I didn't expect them to be so powerful, so sharp and so many!
Although the old man also knows that the big guys are very hard today, but don't be discouraged, although the surname Yu is not weak, but after all, the number of subordinates is limited, and you have all seen it today, he has insufficient troops in the village, otherwise they will have the opportunity to take advantage of our retreat to lead the troops to kill them several times!
But he didn't dare to leave the village for a long time, which showed that his strength in the village was limited, and he could only fight the trapped beasts according to the village! And today they estimate that the loss will not be too small, and they are estimated to be exhausted at the end of the day!
Therefore, the old man thinks that tonight we can take advantage of his unpreparedness, gather a group of dead soldiers at night, attack his Dazhai at night, attack his Dazhai at night, seize one of their village gates, and then this village can be breached!
We can avenge today's arrow! I don't know what you think? ”
After Chu Cailao's words, the shopkeepers below all looked embarrassed, and no one immediately echoed them, and they all fell silent.
Chu Cailao was very unhappy in his heart, but he didn't force them to express his position immediately, but glanced at them with gloomy eyes.
After a while, a shopkeeper resignedly said, "The big shopkeeper has a wonderful plan!" But...... But ......"
Chu Cai pretended to be generous, nodded and said: "If you have something to say, you might as well say it directly, you and I have been friends for so many years, what is there to say?" ”
