"Hamsbond, let your men climb up and persuade the people of the city to surrender, as long as they give up their resistance and hand over the city's supplies to us intact, I can save their lives and release all the women and children of all ages.

Otherwise, I will order the slaughter of the city! ”

Hong Tiancheng commanded in a cold voice.

The old and young women and children are just a burden to Hong Tiancheng, useless, and letting them go can also allow them to increase the burden of other Poles, so why not?

Hong Tiancheng just regarded killing as a means, not a hobby, and he didn't bother to do thankless killing.

Now Hamsbond is no longer the little deacon he once was, but a priest among the Poles, and the young men who joined the Taiping Army Church under his command have become his deacons except for those who have left.

Obviously, the work of these illiterate Polish traitors was not proselytizing, but violent 'law enforcement'.

The main task of the Taiping soldiers was to fight, and naturally, the management of the cannon fodder for the hundreds of Polish slaves was entrusted to Kaspersky and Hamsbond.

Now Kaspersky also has more than a dozen dog-legged deacons as thugs, and at the same time, he is also wearing the skin of the Taiping Army Sectarian, and he is on an equal footing with Hamsbond, and has healthy competition......

The criterion of competition is naturally to see who can manage the Polish slave cannon fodder in his hands smoothly and do the most work with the least food!

Well, it can't cause widespread riots and deaths yet.

The credit of the two is still quite large, and now these Polish slaves and cannon fodder are willing to carry a simple ladder to send a bullet to death......

However, in this wave of attack, the losses of Polish slave cannon fodder were very large, they did not know how to hide at all, or they could not hide it, they were exposed to the fire of the Polish militia at the head of the city, and it would be good if half of the ten people went out and came back intact.

For Polish slaves, injuries were approximately equal to death.

No one cared about the casualties of Polish slaves, Hong Tiancheng only saw that under the labor of Polish slaves, the senior musketeers of the Taiping Army approached the city wall at a small price, and then began to slaughter the Polish musket militia at the head of the city more easily!

Although there were more people killed on Hong Tiancheng's side this time, the casualties of the Taiping soldiers were kept to a minimum, and after controlling the four sides of the city, they only paid a double-digit price.

However, I don't know if Hong Tiancheng's brazen behavior of using Poles as cannon fodder angered or frightened the Poles in the town, and the head of the Polish traitorous deacon who went in to negotiate was thrown out......

Hong Tiancheng looked at the head of the Polish traitor who was handed over by the Taiping soldiers under the city, his frightened and miserable face, and his eyelids twitched slightly.

"Are all the Poles so fierce and not afraid of death now? I've already given a way to live......"

After hearing Hong Tiancheng's incomprehensible muttering, Hamsbond leaned forward slightly and said: "My lord, the reason why these Poles who don't know what to do is so stubborn, according to the speculation of their subordinates, is mainly because they are skeptical about the future of the Taiping Heavenly Army, when Khmelnitsky first started and did not break through the city of Kyiv, there were also many Poles who were unwilling to surrender and were slaughtered, and later after the fall of Kyiv, not only a large number of Ukrainian civilians took refuge, but even many serfs of Polish ethnicity took refuge in Khmelnytsky, to its effect. ”

"Oh?" Hong Tiancheng glanced at Hams Bond, nodded lightly and said: "I know, break the city, all those who resist in the city can be killed, and all those who surrender can be reduced to slaves!" ”

With Hong Tiancheng's military order issued, the Taiping army blew the horn again, and after the Taiping army in other directions heard the horn, they immediately burst out into bursts of shouts and rushed towards the ladder that had been erected.

It's not that Hong Tiancheng doesn't want to break open the city gate, but the inside of the city gate of this town is blocked with stones, and Hong Tiancheng doesn't want to waste a limited amount of black powder for blasting, of course, he can only choose the commonly used ant attachment to attack the city.

Fortunately, the head of Tuweizi City has been blocked by the senior musketeers of the Taiping Army, and the Taiping soldiers who climb do not have to bear the rain of bullets and stones.

As many improvised ladders were erected on each wall, and the Taiping Army's veteran musketeers could climb up to three units of troops almost at the same time.

These senior musketeers of the Taiping Army, carrying arquebuses on their backs, quickly took off their arquebuses and aimed downward the moment they stepped on the top of the city.

Because of the Polish militia in the town, most of the long-range projection troops died at the head of the city, and the Polish militia inside did not have many firearms at all, and the lethality of the bow and crossbow was really not good, so when the senior musketeers of the Taiping Army landed at the head of the city, the counterattack was very weak, and it was quickly suppressed by pieces of lead bullets.

However, the Polish militia in the town was ready for street fighting, and they knew very well what happened to the town of Loren, and their will to resist was very strong.

There is no suspense in the next battle, it is basically the consumption of time and the battle damage of the Taiping soldiers, because the loyalty of the Taiping soldiers is a die-hard level, and there is no possibility of defeat, and the so-called resistance willpower of the Polish militia is a joke in front of the Taiping soldiers!

Under the attack of thousands of senior musketeers of the Taiping Army, this town could not even force the Taiping Army to set fire, and the two sides were not opponents at the same level in terms of weapons, army quality, individual combat ability, numbers, and command system.

The Polish militia faced the senior musketeers of the Taiping Army, not to mention shooting, even if it was hand-to-hand combat, it was the side that was tortured and killed, and the senior musketeers of the Taiping Army were all veteran-level soldiers!

On the other hand, many of the Polish militia faced real battles for the first time!

Hong Tiancheng organized the siege at dawn, and before dusk, the resistance of the entire town was basically completely wiped out.

Because the senior soldiers of the Taiping Army did not take the fire attack, even if a few desperate Poles took the initiative to set fire to the warehouse, they were extinguished by the Taiping soldiers in time, and the loss of materials was not large.

So, Hong Tiancheng can finally live in the comfort of the town center city hall.

Hong Tiancheng stepped through the streets and alleys full of corpses, and officially settled in this town under the protection of the Taiping soldiers, and soon the commander under his command handed over the battle damage report.

In this battle, Hong Tiancheng lost a total of 41 senior musketeers of the Taiping Army, including three commanders and one or two Sima, and the 'count' of prisoners was still in progress, because of the stubborn resistance of the Poles, the town would only leave cannon fodder for young and strong slaves who were useful to Hong Tiancheng.

After Hong Tiancheng listened to the report, the rewards of the all-out war system for this occupation and burning quickly came to his mind, but Hong Tiancheng's face suddenly became gloomy after listening to the prompts of the all-out war system.

Thanks to the Demon God's Tears for a reward of 1,000 starting coins
