More importantly, 20,000 tiger and leopard troops have been surrounded by the imperial loyalist, the 8 Jin Army and the Korean Army, respectively, in Chaoyang, Liaoyang and Andong.
The imperial court invaded Liaodong and left 25,000 soldiers directly to the original Chaoyang Garrison of the First Cavalry Division of Chaoyang City, with a total of 6,000 soldiers clinging to the besieged city.
Not only that, having dozens of heavy artillery guns and more than 20,000 imperial soldiers is like going crazy. They have to attack Chaoyang continuously, and people’s lives are constantly consuming the effective strength of Chaoyang Tiger and Leopard Army.
Liaoyang city, Liaodong governor’s residence and Liaodong and the first-tier cities of Houjin Guo are undoubtedly the first targets of tens of thousands of elite in Houjin.
A field infantry division stationed in Liaodong, a heavy artillery regiment and a garrison regiment rushed to reinforce, and an infantry regiment was surrounded by the late Jin Army before it responded. Liaoyang City began to be attacked by tens of thousands of Han flag soldiers in the late Jin Dynasty.
After ten days of bloody battle, more than 12,000 soldiers can continue fighting at this moment, and there are more than 9,000 people left.
Anton county, which was besieged by the Korean army, was attacked for more than ten days because the fighting capacity of the Korean army was far less than that of the loyalist and the late March, but there were less than 6 thousand soldiers in the besieged Anton two field infantry regiments and one garrison regiment, and there were almost 5 thousand people left at this moment, with little loss.
After being attacked violently, Liaoyang City was equipped with a large number of heavy artillery by the late Jin Army. Even though the heavy artillery regiment of the first army of the Tiger and Leopard Army tried its best to counterattack and destroy nearly half of the heavy artillery of the late Jin Dynasty, the heavy artillery troops of the late Jin Army continued to attack Liaoyang City, and the houses near the wall were almost blown to ruins.
Not only that, the solid wall of Liaoyang City was also blasted with holes by solid shells.
Especially to protect the defenders’ bodies. At first glance, the battlements are full of gaps.
It is such a broken wall that the Tiger and Leopard Army simply relied on the muskets in their hands to beat back. After Jin Hanqi attacked Liaoyang City again and again, leaving a thick body …
Wang Feng, the commander of the first army of Company commanders mansion Tiger and Leopard Army in Liaoyang, is staring at several regimental officers who are tired from continuous fighting with a dignified face.
After seeing their faces in the eyes of the Ministry of Worry, Wang Feng suddenly opened his mouth and cursed, "What’s the matter … Are you afraid … Isn’t it tens of thousands of late Jin Tatars and traitors who followed them … Up to now, there have been more than 10,000 traitors and Tatars in our hands … I believe that if we continue to persist, the final victory will definitely belong to us …"
Wang Feng’s words of encouraging morale seem to have failed at this time.
After a word, the expression of fatigue and worry on the back of the face did not change.
Wang Bo, the commander of the first infantry division in front, woke up with a face of worry. "Although we have wiped out many enemies, the enemy bases are all Tatars who came to die. The real fighters of the traitor troops have left the rear untouched."
"As for us, it will cost more than 3,000 people to destroy more than 10,000 traitor troops … at the end of the day, we will not know how many people we can have left after we destroy all the traitor troops outside the city."
"You know, in the battle of guarding city for more than ten days in a row, because Liaoyang City is too big, we almost all told those soldiers to guard city in turn on the battlefield …"
"The Tatars and traitors outside the city can attack us with one army and one army, so that they can keep their morale and fighting spirit high and attack us constantly without giving us the slightest chance to stop."
"At the end of such a high-intensity guarding city battle, I don’t know if we will persist for five days and ten days more than half a month later, and we will tell those soldiers whether the battlefield will collapse directly because of fatigue."
Wang Feng’s brow wrinkled as soon as Wang Bo’s demoralizing words were uttered.
However, he was not dissatisfied with these words by Wang Bo, the second team, because Wang Bo said these words in front of these heads and dared not speak, and everyone could see the facts and did not defend themselves.
When Wang Feng frowned and thought about how to answer this question, he was full of excitement and exclaimed directly outside the lobby
"Commander … good news … the praetorium sent someone … the praetorium gave us news …"
Wang Feng haven’t react guard battalion commander came in with a person.
After seeing Wang Feng wearing a general’s military uniform, he dressed up as a businessman and gave a military salute to Wang Feng. Then he replied, "South China, the intelligence staff of the Beizhi Governor’s General Staff, has seen the general …"
"BeiZhi in the guard will come to meet the general to the general guard’s latest order …"
At this time, Wang Feng finally reacted with a full face of surprise and said, "The guard finally received news from the Governor’s Office and received orders from the guard …"
"Quick China staff ma told the general what the guard gave us …"
South China did not hesitate to answer, "General, a guard ordered General Wang to command all butch troops in Liaodong for half a month … After half a month, the guard will personally command 30,000 butch troops to reinforce Liaodong and destroy all enemies invading Liaodong."
"Half a month …" After hearing this, Wang Feng’s face was just exposed and his happy expression was directly replaced by dignified and a face of incredible asked.
Because Wang Feng is not sure whether the Tiger and Panther Army can continue to hold on for half a month when its enemies attack itself with less than twenty thousand people.
At this time, a word from South China once again pulled him back to the abyss.
"General Wang misunderstood BeiZhi just said that half a month is not calculated from now … but from BeiZhi when he left Datong …"
"It took ten days for Beizhi to come to Liaodong all the way from Beijing … that is to say, General Wang needs to be the commander in chief of the Liaodong garrison. When the guard personally commands 30,000 butch and leopard troops for about five days, he will reinforce Liaodong to relieve General Wang."
"Good … great … with the military command of a guard, I believe that it is possible for Liaodong garrison to persist for ten days. Because of the military command of a guard, Liaodong garrison finally saw the hope of living to defeat the enemy and avenge the comrades who died …"
With that, Wang Feng directly turned his attention to the fact that his eyes were shining and he asked with a face of joy, "Everyone heard it … The military orders of a guard spoke gently everywhere. In five days, the guard personally commanded the reinforcements to arrive in Liaodong …"
"Everyone told me that you have the confidence to continue to follow and stick to Liaoyang for five days."
"There is-… there is-… there is …"
Chapter five hundred and thirty-nine The first battle of Hanqi
"Boom …" Although Company commanders mansion is one or two miles away from the city wall, the roar and shelling of heavy artillery can still clearly see everyone’s ears in Company commanders mansion.
In the face of the sudden Tathagata artillery outside the city, Wang Feng’s eyebrows were wrinkled up with a dignified face. He ordered, "Brothers, Tatars are attacking again … Everyone has heard the news of Shanshan Governor’s Office. I hope that I can take action in the battle and tell you that you are not scared by the Tatars outside the city. You can still repel them without hesitation in the face of the Tatar attack …"
"All brothers will be ordered to return to their positions … you are equipped with muskets and artillery to deal a fatal blow to the Tatars outside the city."
"Follow the commander’s orders …" A dozen regimental officers roared with a pair of hot eyes as if they had agreed.
There are more than 50 red cannons left in Tatar to avoid being devastated by the heavy artillery regiment of Tiger and Leopard Army.
After more than 50 guns, Huang Taiji personally ordered some of them to disperse and fired round after round of flowering bombs at the wall of Liaoyang City, two miles away.
After only five rounds of shelling, the city wall was covered by the strong smoke generated by the explosion of the flowering bomb.
Of course, the Tiger and Leopard Army set up the Liaoyang heavy artillery regiment and was not indifferent.
Although I know that I can’t do too much damage to the scattered heavy artillery roots, sometimes it takes forty or fifty flowering bombs to destroy a red cannon.
However, in order to reduce the damage of the Tatar heavy artillery to the city wall, the Tiger and Leopard heavy artillery regiment with more than 50 cannons still did not hesitate to shoot round after round of flowering bombs outside the city.
Shells from both sides came and went in a blink of an eye, and thousands of flowering shells exploded on the enemy’s position.
Maybe knowing that you shoot a flower bomb can’t cause too much damage to the defenders in Liaoyang, maybe it’s because you can’t afford to squander yourself from the big court to the limited number of flower bombs.
After ten rounds of shelling, the attack of Tatar artillery stopped
Then ten thousand people later, the soldiers of Jinhanqi held muskets and broadswords with shouting hands … All kinds of siege weapons attacked Liaoyang City from all directions.
At this time, although the Dalai shelling stopped, but there were enough flower bombs to squander, the artillery units of the Tiger and Leopard Army still poured out flower bombs far away.
Among them, the most arrogant artillery that did the most damage to the Han flag was not the cannon with the longest range and the most powerful heavy artillery regiment, but the heavy and medium mortars deployed to all divisions and regiments.
With mortars far exceeding the firing rate of heavy artillery, the killing radius of each bullet is more than two battles, and the flower bombs keep falling like rain, causing a lot of bloodshed in the attacking troops.
However, such a blow did not stop these Han flags from attacking.
Because there are more than 5,000 people behind these Han flags, Jin Tieqi is patrolling back and forth with his bow in his hand. If he finds them showing signs of retreat, these Tatar cavalry will not hesitate to shoot them on the battlefield by shooting arrows into their chests.
It is clear that retreating is absolutely inevitable. These Han flag soldiers can charge forward with hope for life as always.
In a blink of an eye, the many Han flags rushed through the fire interception of the Tiger and Leopard Army and rushed to the end of the effective range of the Tiger and Leopard Army’s flintlock muskets at a distance of 150 steps from the wall.
The dense and violent flower bomb exploded like a bean, and the gun sounded as quickly as the horseshoe produced by Wan Ma Benteng.
Impenetrable lead bullets quickly formed a steel storm outside the city and rushed to the soldiers of Jinhanqi, who were getting closer and closer to the wall.
In front of the hot and high-speed flying lead bullets, the soldiers of Hanqi wore simple armor and were easily penetrated by lead bullets like paper paste.
Then the hot lead bullet directly plunged into the bodies of these soldiers with a speed that did not decrease too much, so a series of blood flowers gushed out from their chests like fountains.
In the blink of an eye, the officers and men of Baihan Banner fell down with a stuffy hum, and life and death were uncertain.
Just before the first round of lead shot brought death and pain to these people, the second round of lead shot has been caught and came at them from the front to block their attack path.
However, such a blow and death still failed to make these Hanqi soldiers feel scared.
Although these soldiers with old-fashioned matchsticks in their hands are fierce, they have to rush to a position 50 or 60 paces away from the wall, and their matchsticks in their hands can also cause a devastating blow to the butch army on the wall.
You must never flinch from immediate shock and death.
So the numerous officers and men of Hanqi, as if they had taken stimulants, continued to fight against lead bullets and death, charging forward without fear of death, and then charging without looking at death.
Ten thousand attack troops finally rushed to the effective range of the matchlock gun after paying more than one thousand losses in a row.
In the face of the close proximity, the tiger and leopard commanders breathed a sigh of relief. The soldiers of Hanqi quickly lit the matchlock and lifted the loaded lead gun to aim at the wall to fight back.
So the bean-exploding gun began to ring outside the city
A steady stream of lead bullets also flew with the gun to the tiger and leopard troops who held on to Chengtou.
