Chapter 716: A Performance of Strength

In the city of Xining, in the face of victory, all the new troops of Ganning were boiling......

At this moment, thousands of Ganning new troops are cleaning up the battlefield with excitement on their faces and reaping the fruits of their own victory.

I didn't expect that the revenge of the Haw Par Army outside the city would come so quickly, and they didn't give themselves any time and opportunity to react at all.

"Woo woo woo ......" the flower bomb with a screeching sound has already flown over their heads, and is about to smash around them. The new army of Ganning, who were reaping the fruits of victory, realized that death had befallen them.

However, it was only at this time that there was a reaction, and it was too late for anything......

Dense flowering projectiles, which did not stop flying because of their fear...... Under the gaze of a pair of shocked eyes, it smashed around them and exploded......

Suddenly, hundreds of Ganning new troops, who were cleaning up the battlefield, were drowned in the intense artillery fire......

Sun Chengzong's sudden artillery counterattack, although it caught the Ganning New Army by surprise, made them pay a lot of casualties in a short period of time. However, Xining City, where everyone is located, is too big.

Even if the Haw Par Army fired more than 100 flowering shells at one time, it could only cover a small area of Xining City.

Just when the flowering bullets fired by the Haw Par Army began to extend continuously. Hearing the explosion of the flowering bomb, the Ganning New Army immediately sped up the speed of cleaning up the battlefield. With captured muskets and grenades, he quickly returned to the cellar where he had used to hide.

Therefore, more than 100 artillery pieces, except for the losses of hundreds or thousands of people caused to the Ganning New Army at the beginning, in the follow-up artillery attack, not a single Ganning New Army was killed or injured by the artillery fire of the Tiger and Par Army.

Of course. The heavy artillery fire was not useless......

As the artillery fire continued. There are many ruins in Xining City. Directly blown up......

As a result, in the next battle, there will be fewer and fewer places where the new army of Ganning can hide. For the new army of Ganning, the battle will also become more and more difficult to fight......

Located in the underground headquarters of the Xining City General Military Mansion, Zhang Zhongming was carrying a solemn face, feeling the trembling of the ground under his feet.

Thousands of soldiers under his command successfully eliminated more than 1,000 elite soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Army. It's gratifying, though. However, the next fierce artillery fire of the Haw Par Army immediately made Zhang Zhongming wake up from the surprise and understand a fact......

The strength of the Haw Par Army outside the city still far exceeds its own...... If nothing else, the artillery that the Haw Par Army is using now is not something they can compete with......

If you are carried away by just one victory, you will be defeated sooner or later in front of the powerful Haw Par Army......

Vice General Huang next to him seems to see something? Facing Zhang Zhongming, he asked directly, "My lord." Are you worried that the artillery fire of the Haw Par Army is too fierce for the soldiers scattered in Xining City to withstand it......"

Zhang Zhongming did not hide it. Answer directly......

"If the soldiers can survive the first round of artillery fire from the Haw Par Army, they will be able to avoid the second round...... The official is worried that after such a heavy artillery fire, the ruins and ruins in the city that can be used to help themselves will become less and less......"

"When the time comes, the whole battle will become more and more difficult to fight......"

"In addition, in the battle that has just ended, the Haw Par Army lost a regiment of musketeers. In order to take revenge on us and avoid repeating the mistakes of the past, the second round of the offensive of the Haw Par Army must have more than one regiment...... Therefore, this official is worried that Xining City under our feet will not be able to defend it......"

Maybe God deliberately embarrassed Zhang Zhongming, and between the two people communicating, the violent explosion of the flowering bomb stopped directly.

Just when Zhang Zhongming had just drilled out of the underground headquarters, climbed a section of the broken wall that had not yet been blown up, and looked at the east gate.

The densely packed Haw Par Army musketeers, with a total strength of more than 4,000, appeared directly in Zhang Zhongming's field of vision......

Three regiments of musketeers, armed with muskets and artillery, quickly poured into the city of Xining in battalion units......

"The Haw Par Army is really a soldier...... The strength of the three regiments, he Sun Chengzong really dares to ......" Zhang Zhongming, whose face changed greatly, looked at the dense attack troops of the Tiger and Leopard Army two miles away, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

After finishing, he directly asked Vice General Huang beside him: "General Huang, how many brothers are left in the city......

"It's not clear how many brothers there are...... However, the approximate number can still be deduced by the last general......" Vice General Huang first shook his head, then nodded again, and finally answered......

"After the first shelling of the Haw Par Army, we still have more than 8,000 soldiers...... In the close-range battle with the Tiger and Leopard Army, many people were lost before...... As for the second shelling of the Haw Par Army, because it came too suddenly, it should have lost more than 1,000 people......"

"Therefore, the last general deduces that we still have 5,000 men in the city......"

Zhang Zhongming nodded, and said with a gloomy face: "There are more than 5,000 of us, and there are more than 5,000 of the Tiger and Leopard Army...... Even if we are in the dark and the Haw Par Army is in the light, we cannot be their opponents...... After all, the Haw Par Army is well-equipped and has brought a lot of artillery into the city......"

"So, this battle that is about to break out, we have to make changes...... We can't go toe-to-toe with the Haw Par Army anymore......"

Speaking of this, a trace of sternness quickly appeared on Zhang Zhongming's face.

Facing the side, Vice General Huang, who also had a solemn face, decisively ordered: "Order all the brothers in the city, this time, we will no longer tempt the enemy...... As long as I encounter the Tiger and Leopard Army, I will be beaten hard, and after the battle, I will never love to fight, and immediately retreat to the location of the General Army. ”

In this era of backward communications, no one knows whether their military orders have reached the ears of every soldier in the city.

However, to Zhang Zhongming's good fortune, the Haw Par Army had just advanced dozens of steps into the city when violent gunfire and grenade explosions began to sound on the battlefield......

However, this euphoria did not last long, and it was covered with solemnity......

Because, the battle in front of him was completely beyond his expectations.

At the beginning of the battle, in the face of the sudden blow, the Haw Par Army did pay a lot of casualties and fell into a brief chaos......

However, this situation did not last long, and the tide of the battle changed dramatically......

The Haw Par Army, which had been prepared for a long time, subconsciously counterattacked with muskets, and at the same time, grenades emitting white smoke also flew to the hiding place of the Ganning New Army.

Of course, the artillerymen, who went on the offensive with the musketeers, were not idle......

Several light mortars were quickly assembled. Immediately after that, one after another, the flowering shells flew out of the barrel and flew towards the Ganning New Army, which was fleeing for their lives......

In the blink of an eye, the tide of the battle was turned upside down...... (To be continued......)
