Chapter 1442: Soldiers besiege the Red Embedded City

Kill out? Phillips thought too simply, if it was only four thousand infantry besieging the Dutch, then it was possible for the Dutch to rush out and kill back to the city; But you are now facing 4,000 elite cavalry, and even if the two-legged cavalry runs away, it will definitely not be able to outrun the four-legged cavalry......

Two people led more than 1,000 people to start desperately attacking into the distance, killing out, the muskets of the Dutch soldiers continued to shoot, threatening the lives of the cavalry, but the speed of the cavalry was too fast, and it was too difficult to accurately hit the cavalry!

On the contrary, under the command of Qin Mufeng, the four thousand cavalry discharged two arc formations on the periphery, one to the left and the other to the right, rushing back and forth, constantly shooting, wrapping the Dutch army in the middle position, galloping and shooting at the same time, this is the whirlwind tactics taught by Zhu Jie to the cavalry!

A huge circle encircles the opponent in the middle, and in the high-speed movement, the use of musket fire layer by layer, the opponent is knocked out, layer by layer, the Dutch army is attacked on all sides, and the cavalry attacks are everywhere, completely stunned, and the impact breaks through? The problem is that his speed is not as fast as other cavalry......

One by one, the Dutch soldiers fell under the muskets of the elite cavalry of the Ming army, suffering heavy casualties, seeing that there were not many troops left, and in the distance, at this time, there was a rumbling cannon!

The Dutch army at the head of the Red Embedded City finally launched an attack, and the artillery continued to hit the cavalry of the Ming army, and the gate of the Red Embedded City was opened, and a Dutch infantry rushed out to the aid of Kuichi and Phillips!

Qin Mufeng continued to move with the Dutch army, but the direction was constantly approaching the Red Embedded City, and now it was only four miles away from the Red Embedded City, the artillery of the Red Embedded City was condescending, and it could be hit to a position of five or six miles.

Qin Mufeng waved his horsewhip hatefully, specially, he forgot, he patronized and killed happily, but he forgot, this place is too close to Chiji City, now that the Dutch reinforcements have come up, under the cover of artillery, the cavalry wants to wipe out the opponent in one fell swoop, but it is not so easy!

"Order, the cavalry let go of the gap, dispersed, and pursued the Dutch army from behind, grandma's, Lao Tzu just can't let them run back to Chiji City comfortably!"

It's just that, at this time, where do the Dutch care if they are comfortable or not? As long as they can run back to Chiji City alive, even if it is rolling all the way back, they are willing!

The cavalry dispersed and continued to pursue, but after all, it was not possible to kill the killer as unscrupulously as just now, the Dutch infantry in the distance continued to shoot, and there were continuous flowering bullets at the head of the city, if you want to lean on, there will definitely be huge casualties, and the gains outweigh the losses, Qin Mufeng had to let go of the Dutch infantry who only had two or three hundred people left, and let them run back to the Red Embedded City.

However, even so, Yu Yi is now frightened, two or three thousand people, only escaped back less than five hundred, almost all of them were wounded, and all the more than forty artillery pieces they carried were lost, and the most important thing is that these forty artillery pieces were not destroyed, but fell into the hands of the Ming army, and they could be used to attack Chiji City at any time? Relying on Chiji City alone, it won't take more than a few days to stop cooking!

"General Yiyi, what should we do next?"

The defender of the Red Embedded City was Brigadier General Fan Tangkhu, the assistant of Kuiyi, who had just connected Kuichi to the Red Embedded City, and asked urgently.

"What to do? What can I do? Now we have to defend the Red Embedded City, and we have no way out......"

He said in a slur voice.

"General......

Phillips on the side said in a low voice: "Defend the Red Embedded City, then our only end is the total annihilation, only with less than 3,000 troops, how long can we hold it?" You have already seen the combat power of the elite cavalry of the Ming army, once the city is besieged, we will break through again, it will be even more difficult than climbing to the sky......"

He suddenly became angry and shouted, "Phillips, it's all your bad idea!" Let me give up the city of Geranza and retreat to the city of Chichi, now it's okay, before we have pushed to the city of Chichi, the combat power of our city of Geranza has been killed and wounded, and now you want me to withdraw from the city of Chichi? Evacuated from the Red Embedded City, where do we go? Are you waiting in Yizhou for the Ming Army to eat it in one bite? ”

Phillips was wilted, his head was about to be pierced into the crotch of his pants, and there was no mistake in his analysis, the only mistake was that he underestimated the strength of the Ming army. However, it is precisely because he now realizes this that he can't let the general defend the Red Embedded City!

You must know that now the Ming army has already beaten the Dutch army to the ground with only 4,000 elite cavalry, what if more than 20,000 infantry arrives, and the powerful artillery arrives? The more than 80 artillery pieces carried by the Ming Dynasty, plus the artillery of the Dutch army that had just been captured, were almost one hundred and twenty or thirty pieces, so many artillery besieged a small red embedded city, even if the red embedded city was cast of steel and iron, it could not withstand the long-term bombardment, and it would not take long for the red embedded city to be razed to the ground, and the jade would be burned......

"General, we really can't resist hard, now we don't have the slightest chance of winning, defend the Red Embedded City, we are afraid that the last two or three thousand Dutch troops will not survive! The main fleet of Batavia will be able to arrive at least twenty days later, even if it is the Spanish fleet, it will take at least ten days to arrive, and even if it does, at most, it will contain the Ming fleet in the open sea, and it will not fight a decisive battle with the Ming fleet at all, can we withstand twenty days or even a month? I'm afraid that we won't be able to carry it for even ten days, most of the artillery of this Ming Dynasty is flowering artillery, and it is a large area when it explodes, and no number of troops can withstand such bombardment......"

Phillips replied abruptly.

Van Tangkhu nodded and said: "General Kuiyi, although Phillips made a mistake in the former's judgment, but this can't be blamed on him, we really didn't expect the Ming army to catch up so quickly, now the situation is already obvious, we only have less than 3,000 troops, to resist the elite attack of the 30,000 Ming army in Chiji City, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, and finally the whole army is annihilated, these are the rules of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, we can't afford to lose, once the whole army is destroyed, we are the sinners of the Kingdom of the Netherlands......"

The corners of his mouth twitched fiercely, sinners, sinners, the whole army was wiped out as a sinner in the Kingdom of the Netherlands, could it be that if he lost Geranza and Chichicheng, he would not be a sinner in the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and this shame would not be washed away for three lifetimes......
