"There were 2,100 casualties among the Guards cavalry of our army, 5,300 casualties among the new rebels, and only 108 of the Russian captured vanguards, who went into battle, survived......"

Yuan Fang is reporting the loss of the first acropolis to Li Liguo, although the data of the wounded and the dead are counted, but the medical facilities of this era are not good, not to mention that Li Liguo has no foundation, and the medical measures are not even up to the level of hehe......

Those who were lucky enough to be able to leave the fighting arms with one life spared, and most of the wounded did not survive for a few days......

You must know that most of the wars in this era are musket lead bullets and bayonet penetrating wounds, not to mention the toxicity of lead bullets, where the human body is hit, it will be scrapped, and the bayonet thing will poke a hole in the body, if you don't die, it is really hard!

The bayonets are all bloodletting slots!

And the Guards cavalry is naturally the Spartan cavalry of the descendant line, where Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin regarded himself as a Cossack nation, attracting a large number of Cossacks from the Russian Empire to take refuge, and also making other ethnic minorities in the Russian Empire recognize themselves as Russians.

Therefore, Li Liguo named the infantry and cavalry of the lineage as Guards so-and-so, and the peasant soldiers with excellent performance, brave combat, and reliable loyalty can also be supplemented into the Guards through their military exploits.

"Well, although the losses are very large, after we capture this important acropolis, we can set up artillery on it and bombard other battery fortifications, and the later attack should be much less under the cover of artillery, by the way, there is no need to keep those Russian prisoners in the later attack, use them, the defenders of Orenburg have seen our arrangement clearly, and there is no need to hide it anymore......"

"Yes, Your Excellency, Leader!"

After pacifying the wounded and regrouping, the peasant rebel army, which had regained its morale, drove away a large number of Russian prisoners and cannon fodder under the cover of the artillery erected on the Acropolis, and began to gradually eat the defense system on the periphery of Orenburg!

The shelling of both sides comes and goes, not to mention the consumption of shells, the artillery that has been blown up and discarded by long-term shelling is a huge loss!

But this loss is necessary!

Because of the strong artillery support, the morale of the peasant rebel army has been maintained at a high state, and they have attacked one battery after another with dense bullets, fighting with Russian veterans, and the Russian prisoners caught in the middle have become veritable cannon fodder!

A few days later, all the Russian prisoners were depleted in the peasant rebel army, which had pulled down all the outer lines of Orenburg......

This practice not only reduced the casualties of the peasant rebels, but also strengthened the will of the Orenburg defenders to resist!

The assault on the main city has become more difficult!

One day, two days, three days......

Li Liguo's new army of the uprising was fought with less than 5,000 people left, and most of the artillery was destroyed.

Of course, the defenders of the main city of Orenburg are not comfortable, and now, in addition to the temporarily organized militia, there are only a few hundred real Russian regular soldiers left, and most of them are wounded!

The Orenburg commander looked at the peasant rebels, who had regrouped and planned to continue the attack, and at the forces of Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin's forces, which had never been used, and knew that it was only a matter of time before he lost the battle......

The commander of Orenburg is not like the group of low-level soldiers, he has wealth and a good life to enjoy, if he dies here, it doesn't seem very appropriate, and I heard that the leader of Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin, against the old aristocratic forces of the Russian Empire, is not too ruthless, the means are quite gentle, just scrape some 'protection money', in the cities controlled by the peasant rebels, those nobles still live the same life of drinking?

Well, as long as you have money......

Of course, even if he surrendered, he had to let Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin announce in public that as long as it was made public, the peasant rebels would break their oath after occupying this place, and Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin's reputation for 'benevolence' would be completely ruined, and his image of properly handling the defective aristocracy would be gone!

In the blink of an eye, Commander Orenburg figured out the key, he still has hope of living!

As for the question of whether Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin would accept surrender, the Orenburg commander did not have to think about it, if Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin really intended to drive his people to a dead end, then he would burn all the weapons stocks and arsenals in Orenburg to ashes, and no one would want to get cheap!

Joseph Visalionovich Stalin, who suffered such a large loss in the attack on Orenburg, didn't he want to solve his own logistical and ammunition problems with the arsenal and skilled workers here?!

With the arsenal, as long as Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin was given enough time to manufacture weapons and expand his forces, he might not have any hope of winning a decisive victory with the Russian Empire!

Now Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin, don't look at him invincible, very awesome, the Russian Empire still has an army, the elite main force has not been transferred back, the Russian Empire has been defeated, and Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin's peasant rebel army, defeated once, will collapse!

One can imagine how important Orenburg was to Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin!

With Orenburg, Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin had the equivalent of unlimited expansion and a second chance for revival!

The Orenburg commander convened a military meeting on the sidelines of Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin's rearmament and communicated with the Orenburg bigwigs, however, Catherine II's brain-dead loyalists still existed, and the surrender meeting broke up unhappily......

In the defensive battle the next day, the Orenburg commander directly used righteousness to send those brain-dead people who shouted that they would never surrender to the front line......

After a tragic siege battle, the number of brain-dead winds plummeted, and many of the surviving brain-dead fans seemed to have opened their minds......

This time, under the traction of Orenburg's top leader, the surrender meeting went quite smoothly, and Li Liguo finally saw the negotiation envoy from Orenburg!

Li Liguo is also a little unable to suppress the peasant rebel army with heavy casualties!

However, it all succeeded, and the future is bright! (To be continued.) Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info)
