Chapter 370: The Unconquerable Fortified City

More than a dozen Japanese robbers got into the door hole of the city gate, they couldn't see the situation in the door hole, they could only rely on groping to walk inside, came to the door, reached out and touched the city gate, the cold touch made them a little surprised.

But the dozen or so pirates didn't think much about it, they quickly piled up the explosives bag at the city gate, and after igniting the explosive bag, the group of pirates rushed out of the doorway.

Outside the city, those would-be wouldn't have been ready, and when the door exploded, they rushed into the city, and all the would-be robbers held their breath and looked at the gate in front of them with burning eyes.

As the dozen or so would-be robbers rushed out of the door more than ten meters away, a shocking explosion came from the door behind them, the sound was deafening, and almost the entire night was blown up.

The moment he heard the explosion, the Japanese who were hiding in the shadows suddenly rushed out with a shout, and the target was the city gate hole in front of him.

They were only more than 200 meters away from the city gate, and they didn't even need ten breaths to rush over, and almost half of the 30,000 widows rushed out, and the rest were ready to respond.

The dense figures soon rushed to a place less than 100 meters in front of the city gate, and they thought that the People's Army on the city wall must be in chaos and was paying attention to the city gate.

But at this moment, a dense burst of gunfire rang out on the city wall, and then, the Japanese who rushed into the city gate fell one by one. They were instantly blinded and didn't come back to their senses for a long time.

Something else was thrown from the walls and landed in the wokos, bam...... Bang...... A burst of explosions sounded, and suddenly, a group of would-be robbers were blown up and cried their fathers and mothers, and they were extremely embarrassed. There were also countless casualties.

This situation made the Japanese cowards below directly stunned, they looked at the city above that was still in the dark, and their eyes were full of question marks, what the hell is going on?

There seemed to be no one on the city wall, but why such a fierce attack fell, only the occasional firelight that could be seen made the Japanese understand that there were already people in ambush on the city wall.

However, although these widows were stunned, they still rushed towards the gate of the city, as long as they could rush into the city, then the city could be taken.

But when the Japanese in front of them rushed out of the dense fire net and came to the city gate hole, the lonely city gate hole was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, and the Japanese who was holding a torch in front of him looked at the immovable black iron gate in front of him in astonishment, and his mouth was wide open.

Damn, the city gate didn't blow up, how could this be! They thought they were mistaken, they used to blow up the city gate with explosives, one at a time, but today it is useless.

Even if the structure of the city gates of their Wa Kingdom is different from that of Huaxia, aren't they all wooden gates? With such a violent explosion, how could it not have exploded.

The undying Japanese rushed to the city gate, stretched out his hand and touched the city gate, only to find out what kind of wooden city gate this special thing is, it is simply an iron gate, and it is so big.

They couldn't have imagined that Huaxia's refining technology was so awesome? Even such a large iron gate can be made.

How would they know that since Yun Ze took Yongcheng, they thought that it was now the age of gunpowder, and if someone put explosives at the city gate, they would definitely be able to blow the city gate open.

Therefore, he replaced most of the city gates with such iron gates, especially the coastal areas, which are the first gateway to coastal defense. Qin Ze had to guard against the Hebrew people for a long time.

I didn't expect to become a Hebrew speaker, but to guard against the Japanese. More and more pirates are crowding into the city gates, and they don't know that the gates haven't exploded.

Almost in a few breaths, there were three or four hundred people crowded into the entire city gate, and between the crowds, these would-be robbers knew that the city gate had not exploded.

But at this time, it was already difficult for them to retreat, and at this moment, countless grenades were thrown down on the city wall, and a huge explosion sounded in front of the doorway.

The powerful energy caused a cavity reaction in the doorway, and all the widows in the doorway were shocked to death. All of a sudden, three or four hundred would-be robbers lost their lives.

The remaining pirates were so frightened that they no longer dared to approach the city gate, and their eyes were full of fear, and many of them began to retreat. The general of the Japanese who commanded in the rear did not yet know what was happening.

Seeing the escaped widows, after stepping forward and kicking down a few people, he loudly questioned why these guys had fled back, and even killed a few of his subordinates.

When his subordinates said that they did not blow up the city gate, the chief general still did not believe what he heard, how could such a powerful explosion not blow up the iron gate.

They didn't know that the city gate had been replaced with iron, and the would-be robbers they knew had been killed in the explosion just now.

The main general's eyes were fierce, and he hurriedly gave his soldiers the task of blowing up the door again, and if twenty or thirty explosive bags could not blow up the city gate at a time, then they would use double or even double the explosive package, and he would not believe that the city gate could not be blown up.

Following his order, twenty or thirty would-be pirates rushed towards the city gate with three explosives bags each. The army of the Japanese invaders even took the opportunity to rush under the city wall, wanting to create an opportunity for these people. Attract attention from the city walls.

After all, the would-be robbers had almost retreated, and if they rushed over like this, the people on the walls knew what they were trying to do.

As long as they increase their forces to attract the attention of the city walls, they will have a chance to rush over and blow up the door. In this case, a lot of pirates will die in vain, but now they can't care about so much.

They had no way to deliver explosives to the gates, and although they inherited the technological weapons of the Hebrews, they did not inherit artillery or anything.

They couldn't take these things, but they cheapened the Emperor Akihito for nothing. All they took was muskets and some gunpowder and grenades and stuff.

On the city wall, looking at the Japanese who rushed over again, the eyes of more than 300 KPA soldiers of a company guarding here were cold. Among them, the company commander frowned and looked at the widow who suddenly came to send him to death, and he was a little puzzled.

Knowing that the city gate has not been blown open, it has already retreated, why do they still rush over, will they still not be able to fly? But he soon discovered that among the charging pirates were twenty or thirty men with large bags of explosives.

The company commander showed a look of banter on his face, he was really tired, and he wanted to rely on manpower to cover and bomb the city gate again. This time, the amount should be two to three times as much as before.

Although such an amount of explosion cannot break the city gate, it will still cause great damage to the masonry structure of the city gate, and it is really possible to blow up the city wall here.

It's unlikely, but it's not impossible. The company commander hurriedly ordered: "Did you see those people hiding in the shadows?" Use flares, shine them out on me, brothers, and hit the ones with the explosives. It's better to hit them with explosives packets. ”

With the voice of the company commander, someone suddenly shot several flares into the air, and suddenly the dark night sky was like day. The pirates below who extinguished their torches and moved towards the city wall suddenly had nothing to hide.

At the same time, the KPA fighters on the city wall turned their guns on the Japanese who were holding explosives bags.

As the bullet penetrated the explosive pack, it immediately caused a powerful explosion, which exploded almost in a chain reaction, one by one. The twenty or thirty would-be robbers with explosives bags were suddenly blown to pieces and wiped out in ashes, along with the surrounding ones.

When the rest of the widows saw this, they all ran back in fright. They didn't dare to show their heads again, and they all hid in the dense forest outside the city gate.

When the Lord sees this scene, he is directly dumbfounded. What the hell is going on? They couldn't even send the explosives packs, and the weapons on the walls seemed to be more powerful than their muskets, and they could shoot so far that they could easily blow up their explosives packets.

How else can this siege the city? The gates could not be blown open, and although the walls were not high, they could not climb them. They're just going to be stuck here.

The general was full of anxiety at this time, walking back and forth, they were originally going to take the three cities in half a day, even if the resistance of the three cities was a little more fierce, it would only take a day at most.

In addition, the time to attack was no more than three days, but now they used up almost half of the day to hurry, and now they are blocked here, and there is only one and a half days left, how can they take this city.

Unless they're willing to take the risk, wait here for two more days and see if they can think of another way to attack the city. For example, create ladders and forcibly attack cities.

But the key problem is that they don't have sappers, so they can't make ladders at all. This made the general angry and anxious.

The same problem also appeared in the other two cities, they faced the iron gate, they couldn't blow it up, and they couldn't attack it, so they were directly stopped outside the city.

All three cities lost nearly 2,000 troops. The first battle was disadvantageous. At this time, the sky had already dawned, and the would-be robbers were sleepy and tired!

They rushed over with joy, how could they have thought that this was the case, it was really a trouble that the battle report was not detailed, if they knew that the city gate here was an iron gate. Anyway, they have to bring sappers who can make ladders.

Now they are in a dilemma, there is no way to advance, and they are unwilling to retreat, after this attack, if they want to attack quietly, I am afraid that it will be impossible, and they will even let Huaxia strengthen its forces and deployment.

The Japanese in the three directions thought about it, and finally, after thinking about it with firm eyes, they directly asked their soldiers to start building a ladder.

They were not willing to retreat like this, each of them lost more than 2,000 people, and it would be too embarrassing to withdraw their troops if they did not get anything.

Not to mention, the three of them combined have close to 90,000 troops, so many troops in hand, even if the reinforcements from Huaxia arrive, I am afraid that they may not be able to get benefits.

They estimated that the strength of the troops on the Huaxia side would not exceed 30,000 at most. From the deployment of troops in the coastal cities they discovered, they guessed that the total number of troops in the coastal areas of China was estimated to be 30,000 or 40,000.

It's good to be able to bring out 30,000 people.

In order to prevent the Huaxia side from launching an attack on them with difficulty. The commander-in-chief of the three divisions divided his forces into several units, each with about 3,000 men. They were scattered throughout the city where they were.

In addition to sacking those fishing villages, they are also preparing for possible attacks by the Huaxia army, and the dispersion of troops is conducive to their defense. And in front of the three cities, they deployed 8,000 men.

Half of these people are starting to build ladders, while the rest are taking turns to recuperate. Alerts are also conducted.

It's just that what makes these widows aggrieved is that their vigilant subordinates, as long as they show their heads slightly, they will be inexplicably shot in the head. If someone is around, their companion's brains can splash them in the face.

After a few times like this, the would-be robbers were almost so frightened that they broke down. They never thought that the weapons on Huaxia's side would be many times better than they didn't know.

But this situation also made the Japanese lord a burst of joy, Huaxia side of the weapons are advanced, if they can grab their hands, then their strength will be greatly improved, at that time, maybe they can really settle down here, and even be able to develop to the entire Huaxia interior.

His idea is very good, but it is difficult to say whether they can achieve it.

On the second day after the Japanese invaded the three cities, the Japanese forces in the three cities built forty or fifty ladders each. Although the shape of the ladder is not good, it is quite strong.

The Japanese began the siege at noon the next day, and they tried to storm the city walls and take the city, but the KPA garrison on the city walls resisted desperately.

However, in addition to the katana, the Japanese also used muskets in the lower garments, which were not as powerful as the KPA's, but they could still inflict damage to the KPA when attacking under the walls.

From noon to night, the KPA also suffered losses, with more than 2,000 Japanese casualties and more than 200 losses on the KPA side. The battle loss ratio was almost ten to one.

The total strength of the People's Army was only 2,000 men, which was a decrease of more than one-tenth of the total, and the strength of the Japanese army also lost more than one-tenth of its strength.

It's just that if it goes on like this, I'm afraid the three cities won't be able to hold it. But the losses of the Japanese will also be even greater. Even if you can take the city, I'm afraid there won't be many people left, and it's good to be able to have 10,000 left.

Moreover, the weapons and equipment in the three cities may not last long. After all, weapons and equipment are still somewhat scarce at the moment.

If it weren't for the concern about the defense of coastal cities, a lot of weapons and equipment from various cities in the interior would have been transferred, and it is estimated that they would not have been able to hold out for three days.

On the third day, the Japanese attacked the city again, and this time the Japanese attacked more ferociously, almost allowing them to storm the city wall several times, but the KPA soldiers were not afraid to die. They weren't given any chance at all.

And because it dragged on for three days, the Japanese were a little anxious, after all, they were the one who came to attack, and they had to worry about encountering reinforcements from Huaxia at any time.

Not to mention, because they lost too many troops during the siege, they had to shrink the forces of the outer defense and turn back the troops of the outer defense, and the defense of the outer area was too weak. If the Chinese reinforcements arrived, they might be dumplings.

Just when the Japanese were anxious, the reinforcements of the People's Army from three directions had also rushed to the vicinity of the three cities, and they met the army of the defense line on the periphery of the Japanese invaders.
