Chapter 619: Hole cards that can flip the table at any time
Thinking of Huang Taiji's suppression of him at the beginning, Dolgon's heart was full of anger.
However, immediately, he came to his senses, Huang Taiji, is dead, and now, as long as he wins the battle in front of him again, then the entire Houjin will be his Dolgon's.
At this stage, Lushun is the top priority, the situation here has reached such a point, no matter who he proposes, as long as he can win, then there is no problem, he Dolgon is about to be the status of a monarch of a country on the spot, so why bother to taboo a private person.
What's more, Huang Taiji's big and small fortunes are already in his Dolgon's room, and they have all put on a green and cold hat for the dead ghost, so what does it matter if people mention this name.
Thinking of this, Dorgon steadied his mind and calmly said to Abatai, "You carefully state your thoughts. ”
"Yes, my lord, we attacked the rammed earth wall every day, filled in the potholes in the road during the day, and after we were repulsed by the opposing team, they dug the holes again, and everything we did during the day was useless.
The next day, let's do it again as it is, and we have to die so many people for no reason to achieve the goal we have achieved yesterday.
All this is because the artillery equipped in the Huaxia army is too powerful, and the shield car can't resist it for too long.
If we want to win, we still have to dig a trench over there and hold our position firmly, as long as we dig out the soil, it will be an earthen wall, and no matter how powerful the cannonballs on the opposite side are, it will be impossible to break through the earthen wall.
In this way, if we attacked it before, and the men and horses who got close to the rammed earth wall of the Huaxia army could stay behind the earth wall safely, and suddenly save the pain of having to suffer a meal of artillery bombardment in vain the next day. ”
Duoduo had a feeling that he didn't understand, and he asked suspiciously: "Seventh brother, what do you mean, you want us to dig all the way through like this?" ”
"Fifteen Baylor, that's exactly what I mean, let's also learn from the stupid methods of the Huaxia army, digging all the way around in twists and turns, so that the artillery of his Huaxia army can't hit our minions in the ditch.
In the evening, we will send Bao Yi to rush through the distance that is already very close to the opposite trench, and step on the mines in the opposite trench one by one.
When encountering the kind of pulling mines that cannot be stepped on, the gunpowder inside is soaked with water, or they are simply dug out.
Even if the Huaxia Army saw that we sent someone to dig up their mines, pulled the fire rope, and let the mines explode, it didn't matter, it was just a few coats of death.
When this battle is over, we can catch as many coats as we want from Daming. ”
Still annoyed in his heart, the man before him refuted his words, and hurriedly asked, "Didn't someone just say that even if you go to that trench, it's useless?" So now, even if we are in that trench, aren't we still the same? ”
"Fifteen Baylor, I'm afraid you have forgotten a little, the rammed earth wall built by the Huaxia army is no more than a zhang high, and the width of the trench excavated is only a little more than a zhang.
The attack method of the defense line of such a height and width is naturally very different from the usual siege time, and we don't need to climb up from under the trench to attack, just put a wooden board on top of the trench, and we can easily cross the trench soon.
As for the rammed earth wall after the ditch, it is good to put up a short ladder, these things are not difficult to build, and it is very convenient to carry.
From the news sent back by our sentinels, we can see that the number of people in this battle of my Dajin is greatly superior, and since there is such an advantage, it is natural to give full play to it.
When the time comes, we will start fighting together on the whole front, as long as thousands of ladders are erected, the number of firearms in the hands of the Huaxia army on the opposite side will naturally be insufficient. ”
Duoduo immediately laughed and said, "This idea is really good, it's extremely wonderful, Seventh Brother, you are really good at fighting."
After this military meeting, the Houjin army really stopped for two whole days, during which the stragglers on both sides were at most scattered and harassed each other at night, and as for the larger-scale fighting, it did not happen at all.
The scouts sent by the Huaxia Army detected the movements of Houjin in the past two days, and Houjin actually sent a large number of men and horses to cut down trees from the mountains and forests in the distance.
According to the final statistics of the intelligence department, the number of Houjin coats dispatched to cut wood was as many as 30,000 people, and even because of the shortage of manpower, Houjin even sent out those remaining members of the combat troops to help make siege things.
At the Liaonan Front Headquarters in Lushun, all the officers and staff officers agreed that the Houjin Tatars were preparing for a large-scale campaign, and once these things were completed, then the Houjin Army would definitely launch an unprecedented large-scale attack.
Chen Xin also understood that Dolgon was going to move seriously this time, so he urgently ordered that among the several battalions of the 11th Brigade that was being trained in China, an infantry battalion that had completed the initial training should rush to southern Liaoning as soon as possible, and the other battalions were also ready to replenish the battle losses here at any time.
All the personnel in the Lushun defense line were also mobilized, including all the civilian personnel in charge of the work of the military management committee in Lushun City.
And on the warships and transport ships, all the sailors in non-essential posts also came down to assist in the defense.
The Coast Guard's light guns from small boats and the "typewriter heavy machine guns" learned from the historical Hatch Chase multi-barrel guns were also brought ashore and operated by sailors and deployed on a second rammed earth wall.
Several 155mm caliber rifled heavy guns that the army's heavy artillery battalion had worked so hard to move to Lushun were also moved to the north wall of Lushun South City, which was Chen Xin's last hole card.
What Chen Xin has to do now is to use Lushun as the fulcrum, attract the Houjin army to attack as much as possible, consume the Houjin vitality to the greatest extent, and lay a good foundation for the next step of the kingdom's counterattack plan to the inland of Liaodong.
Therefore, it is very likely that a few shells will remind the enemy of the situation in the later battle of the Daling River, and the 155mm heavy artillery that scares the enemy back cannot be used for the time being.
Chen Xin did not plan to use these decisive weapons until there was a serious crisis in the Lushun defense line garrisoned by the Huaxia Army, or until the Houjin Army could not bear too many casualties and officially chose to retreat.
However, as long as these 155mm heavy guns exist, Chen Xin has the hope of turning the tables at any time, no, it should be said that it is because of the hole cards that can flip the table at any time.
It is precisely because of the hole cards that can be lifted at any time that Chen Xin was able to so calmly send soldiers and horses to all parts of the world to expand the territory and population of the kingdom when the 200,000 troops of Houjin pressed the border.
