"Boom! Rumble! Boom ......"

The artillery fire of the Ming army was fired again, crackling and exploding on the wooden village of the Burmese army, destroying part of the wooden fence.

However, Burma's mountainous rainforests are everywhere, and most of the mortars carried by the Ming army are hard, and there are almost no heavy artillery.

Craftsmen in the Burmese military camp quickly carried wood and nails on their backs and climbed the stairs built in the fortifications to repair them, and they usually hid in the trenches in front of the fortifications, ready to repair at any time.

Not to be outdone, the Burmese army's batteries returned fire, and the British artillery and the Ming artillery fought a contest in Burma for the first time.

Xu Qingshan personally went to the front of the battle to supervise the battle, looking at the battlefield full of gunsmoke, and a trace of unhappiness rose in his heart.

Although the number of artillery fire of the Ming army was intensive, the caliber and power were limited, and the fortifications of the Burmese army were too many and too thick, and the mortars could not cause significant damage to them, and could only form a stalemate.

Xu Qingshan led his soldiers forward to a place fifty paces away from the fence and carefully observed the weaknesses of the Burmese military camp.

The Burmese army on the wooden wall seemed to have discovered the commander of the Ming army, and one by one, as if they had eaten a bullwhip, they desperately fired in the direction of Xu Qingshan with muskets.

With a "snap" gunshot, one of the personal soldiers around Xu Qingshan was knocked down, and everyone hurriedly escorted Xu Qingshan out of the front line.

Xu Qingshan was calm and calm, walking without hurry, and he didn't know whether he was deliberately pretending to be forced or really not afraid of guns and bullets.

He ordered: "Let the Yunnan rattan soldiers attack and dismantle the Burmese fortifications!" ”

Rattan soldiers arose in the Jiajing Dynasty's anti-Japanese war, and the rattan cards used by the soldiers were made of rattan, and the shields with special treatment could be bulletproof.

Qi Jiguang once said: "The soft wall is not strange, the cotton covered by the person is covered with the upper ear of the wooden grid, and the method of convenience is fixed for a while, but if it is not as rigid and soft as the card, forty or fifty steps away can cover the lead, and it has been tried and tested; But as close as thirty paces, it must be penetrated, but the lead must be far away, and there must be no one or twenty steps to put it......"

Smoke filled the air, artillery was in the air, and the smell of gunpowder filled the air, and hundreds of rattan soldiers rushed into the trench in front of the Burmese army's fence and pulled out wooden sticks and antlers with rattan signs.

Sun Jian is a rattan soldier in the Southern Military Governor's Mansion? The march along the way made him feel very tormented, and he finally met the living Burmese army, and Sun Jian was very excited.

The most important military exploit of the Ming army? Finally, there is a chance to play, and everyone cherishes it.

Sun Jian is holding a rattan card and a cat waist? With one of his subordinates, he jumped like a monkey into a trench dug by the Burmese army? The Burmese army's craftsmen who repaired the wooden village were killed as soon as possible.

The rattan in his hand is made by repeatedly soaking in oil and drying and weaving for two months? Very strong and tough. Generally, a sharp blade will not pierce, and it is difficult for a sword to penetrate.

Compared to heavy armor? Can this rattan brand bring a lot of convenience to soldiers? Is it also easy to carry? It can play a big advantage when fighting.

The Burmese soldiers on the wooden wall shot frantically downward, and Sun Jian and other rattan soldiers approached the wooden fence to avoid the bullets.

And the Burmese troops on the wall of Muzha began to drop iron pills and stones at them in different ways.

Sun Jian shouted: "Everyone leans together to increase the force capacity!" A team holding rattan cards? Two teams of slashes, three teams of hammers? Act fast! ”

After everyone heard this, they echoed, slashing and hammering, crazy slashing and demolition!

"Sentry! This thing can't be dismantled! ”

Soldier report? The wooden fence here is different from the single-layer thick wooden stakes encountered by the Burmese army in the past, and there is a fixed layer of wooden planks and wooden strips tied in the wooden stakes here, which cannot be cut down in a day just by the weapons in hand!

Sun Jian calmly instructed everyone not to panic, his brain moved, and ordered: "Attack with fire and burn these rags!" ”

He felt that once the fire was successful, the Burmese army would be self-defeating!

Sun Jian ordered people to collect dry grass nearby, and along the ditch leading to the river, cut a large number of reeds, and under the cover of the light artillery battalion behind him, they successively piled up these flammable materials outside the wooden fence wall.

Seeing this, the Burmese army inside the wooden wall directly lit torches and threw them out of the wall, and the reeds and boring Shun troops collected by the Ming army were ignited, and only the second layer of wooden fence was burned out.

Sun Jian was annoyed, it was still because of the lack of manpower, the little things they collected were not enough to burn these wooden villages!

If there are many people, it will be easy to burn down the camp of Xiaomianzi!

In desperation, Sun Jian led everyone to retreat and report the situation to the top.

Seeing this, the Burmese army threw darts and javelins one after another, and when the Ming army had withdrawn from a sufficient distance, they began to shoot muskets again.

During the retreat, several of Sun Jian's rattan soldiers were shot and killed, and even his left arm was wounded, but he still withdrew the troops.

Sun Jian's actions and ideas were highly praised by the leadership, and Xu Qingshan prepared to use a large-scale fire attack.

Until the evening, there was still artillery fire in front of the Burmese army village, and the sound of guns and cannons was like firecrackers for the New Year.

The sailors of the Ming army and the sailors of the Burmese army were still fighting fiercely on the river, and the Ming army smashed two Burmese warships, but they were never able to capture the heavily armed water camp.

The Burmese reinforcements also brought new timber, and five Dazha camps were re-erected in the previously damaged areas, and the camps were connected to each other and were extremely strong, and the previous achievements of the Ming army were once again lost.

On the 29th, Xu Qingshan mobilized all the rattan soldiers and assault soldiers, as well as prepared a large amount of firewood, and ordered a fire attack again.

In addition, the Ming army used local materials to create a large rattan to cover the soldiers, and Sun Jian's rattan regiment once again became the main attacking force.

This time, the new rattan card is even bigger than the previous one, not only covering the two people who hold the license, but also covering the team behind them.

In this way, hundreds of large shields covered the advance of thousands of assault soldiers holding firewood.

The Burmese army's flintlock pistols kept hitting the shields, but they were useless, and the artillery fire was also suppressed by the Ming army.

Sun Jian led people to slowly approach the wooden fence, and a hundred shields approached the Burmese army like a wall, and the Burmese army was helpless, watching the Ming army advance.

After the Ming army rattan regiment demolished the Burmese army facilities in the trench, they finally placed the firewood against the wooden fence, and they began to light the fire with a happy face.

Looking at the raging fire, Sun Jian believed that he could create a miracle and break through the huge wooden fence outside Jiangtou City, opening a gap for the army, so as to be promoted and rich!

However, they still underestimated the weather after the rainy season in the Indochina Peninsula, and as soon as the fire reached the third layer of the wooden fence, a southwest wind suddenly blew, and the fire turned to burn at the Ming army.

"Fuck it!"

Sun Jian looked up to the sky and sighed, and after soaking urine in the trench, he led the team back to retreat......

Seeing the failure of the Ming army's attack, the Burmese troops on the wooden fence cheered wildly, and some Burmese soldiers knelt down to the sky to thank the gods.

The fire could not be attacked, Xu Qingshan sighed secretly and decided to use the air formation.

At this time, the Burmese army's five-story wooden village has been burned to three floors, taking advantage of their time to repair it, a good opportunity to officially win by surprise, although this timing is not the best, but Xu Qingshan expected that the Burmese army at this time has been exhausted by tossing!

However, providence made people, and within a few days, a heavy fog began on the river, which did not disperse until noon, and the wooden fence was completely soaked with fog.

At this time, it was obviously impossible for the Ming army to use hot air balloons or continue to attack with fire after surveying the wind direction......
