This is actually not bad, surrounded by such high walls and deep ditches, and there are enough soldiers to guard, it is the most difficult node and fortress to gnaw, if you want to attack hard, the defender will of course be killed and wounded, and the attacker will have to pay greater casualties and costs, not to mention that the attacker has to import grain and grass from behind, which itself is very laborious and costly, the two sides hold each other, and the attacker often can't hold on.

If you want to use this to contain the soldiers and horses of the Xuzhou Zhao Battalion Headquarters, then there will be an excellent effect, so that the core strength of the Xuzhou Zhao Battalion can not advance or retreat, and when other places occupy an advantage, you can gather and encircle, even if you start fighting here, you can also consume more strength of the Zhao Battalion at a smaller cost, and there can also be a steady stream of reinforcements coming, and in the end the Xuzhou Zhao Battalion can not hold on.

These considerations are not wrong, anyone who knows the art of war will feel very proper and cautious, this is the method that the veterans will come up with, Yang Zhaoji, the chief soldier of Datong, has been in battle for a long time, and Zhou Baolu, who was transferred to Beizhili, is also a veteran soldier, it is not surprising to be able to make such a cautious and thorough arrangement, this kind of response, in fact, is to regard the Xuzhou soldiers and horses as a strong army, and the officers and soldiers admit that they are invincible in the field, so they must consume each other as much as possible, and wait for the gathering of superior forces.

But they didn't expect that the Zhao Zi battalion had so many artillery, such good artillery, such large-caliber artillery, and the artillery skills were no longer understandable to the officers and soldiers.

The officers and soldiers were not slow to react, they immediately responded, it took time for the artillery to fire and fix, and it took time for each round to start, taking advantage of this gap to rush to the front with a horse team, and they would definitely be able to capture the artillery, but no one expected the second round to start so quickly, but the officers and soldiers still felt that there were too many artillery outside, and this was just that it was not fired at this time, and they had to send people to rush outward, and if they didn't dare to rush, they would use the Inspector team.

But the next cannon roared and smashed everyone's fantasies, why didn't the artillery in Xuzhou stop? How can this Xuzhou artillery be the same as alive, and it can still advance into it step by step, and the people who are close to the firing range finally crawl out of the pile of dead people, and just run to the place where they think they are safe, the shells are smashed again, but what to do, the only way is to run backwards, nearly 20,000 people, all running backwards, crowded and pushing each other.

Knives have already been used between the officers and the people, and there is also a fire between the officers and the soldiers, and no one thought that after experiencing this kind of shelling, they must stay away, and whoever stands in front of them is blocking their own way of life, how can they tolerate it.

The general soldiers, deputy generals, guerrillas, thousand generals, and generals were barely maintaining order, they originally lived in the houses of the owners and big families in Shangjiazhuang, which were in the center of Shangjiazhuang, and at first they thought that the artillery could not hit, and they could also issue orders to prepare for a counterattack, but after the shells got closer and closer, no one dared to hold on, and they all hurriedly evacuated outward.

Some people want to play tricks and coerce the people in Zhuangzi to take them to the cellar to hide, but some people are unlucky, a cannonball fell and smashed directly into the cellar, and the people inside were shocked to death.

No one in the official army dares to show their heads in the east of Shangjiazhuang, there have been beaten ruins, the ground is full of corpses, everyone is crowded in several other places on the side of the village gate to prepare you to grab me and rush out, I really can't stand being encircled inside with artillery bombardment, even if it is a real fight with real knives and guns outside, it is good to die in battle! The officers and soldiers were so flustered that they naturally couldn't see why the artillery outside was getting closer and closer.

When the firing range reaches the limit, the family will quickly wipe the hot cannon body with a damp cloth, and then shout and drag the cannon forward, from thousands of pounds of heavy guns to hundreds of pounds of light guns, each cannon is slowly moving forward, and then start to fire flat and upward again, continuing to cover Shangjiazhuang.

Zhao Jin no longer appreciated the brilliance of the shelling, but quickly ran out of the vicinity of the artillery position, several flag-bearers holding various flags were waiting there, Zhao Jin was there not long after, he saw a family running over on horseback, stopped his horse from a distance, and galloped wildly, the reason why he did not approach on horseback was because such a bombardment would make the horses frightened and crazy.

"Jin Ye, the official army is out of Zhuangzi, the east gate is rushing out, and the north gate and south gate have also been opened." This Ding said hoarsely in the roar of the cannon.

Zhao Jin nodded, and immediately shouted to the flag-bearers: "Stop the shelling, give the order, give the order." ”

The flag-bearers immediately danced the flags in their hands in order, and at the same time, the families near the flag-bearers rushed towards the place where Meng Zhiqi was, the roar of the cannon began to become sparse and then stopped, Zhao Jin shouted again: "The artillery team is on standby, the artillery brigade uses its own company to protect and block the gap in the east, the horseback family Ding and the volunteers go to disperse the assembled officers and soldiers, order the regiment to train out of the battalion and press it, the regiment to practice to go to the north gate, the second regiment of the pro-guard brigade to follow me to the south gate, and the horse team to go to the west gate first, quick!" ”

Zhao Jin didn't notice that he was already yelling hoarsely, as was everyone who approached the artillery position, the flags sent out one signal after another, and the family members gave orders while calming the restless horses, and the entire Zhao Zi battalion brigade began to move.

The sound of hooves rumbled, and the group of horsemen ran past Zhao Jin, and when they passed by the artillery array, they could hear someone shouting: "Now is the time for our regiment to show its face!" ”

Everyone heard this roar very clearly, the morale of the entire horse riding regiment was about to explode, everyone shouted wildly and waved the weapons in their hands, everyone's morale was not because of this sentence, but because of this thunderous thunderbolt shelling, with such artillery on their side, what else could not be defeated.

Zhao Jin rode a horse to catch up with the second regiment of the pro-guard brigade that had been lined up, he turned over and dismounted, picked up a long halberd, surrounded by the pro-guard company, walked on the right side of the second regiment in the rear position, Zhang Hubin, who walked beside the flag bearer and the drummer, turned around and punched the chest armor to signal, and then led the team to walk forward, he had already seen the chaos in Shangjiazhuang, countless people on the Zhuangzi gate suspension bridge crowded outward, and some people turned out from the wall, accidentally fell into the trench, and were pierced by the barbs inside.

"The Fire Gun Company ran forward, fired three rounds after a volley, and then returned to their own team." I could hear someone shouting and giving orders, and watched the fire gun run forward, so they lined up on the side of the suspension bridge at the east gate of Shangjiazhuang, and directly began to shoot, firing from the side.

No one noticed the shooting from the side at all, no one even cared about it, everyone was fleeing, when the explosion sounded continuously, it was like waving a sickle in a wheat field, every time the shot was fired, a row of people fell, and at this time, the officers and soldiers who ran out reacted, but they just ran in more panic, and they were knocked down by the next shot.

"Horizontal formation, flat spear advance!" The flags changed, the drums and trumpets sounded, the second regiment of the Guards Brigade slowly unfolded, and the servants leveled their spears and threatened to pass.

In this change, Zhang Hubin also gave a second order, that is, the fire gun family does not have to retreat, just continue to shoot and kill over there, such a pure slaughter, there is really no need for tactics and tactics.

"Our brothers have to look like this, otherwise we won't need any spears and guns and horseback riding in the future, we will shoot everything with artillery, and we won't let any of them run away this time!" Tao Gui said loudly on his horse, and the array of horseback riders began to slowly unfold, and the three teams were about to return to their respective teams.

Hearing Tao Gui's words, Xu Yong and Bayin both nodded vigorously, this artillery bombardment is spectacular, but it also makes everyone have a sense of crisis, charging into battle, fighting with swords, this is the way to win, but how can it be so easy now, dozens of cannons pushed over and fought for a while, and then this is going to win, so what's the use of everyone, not only the team thinks so, but also the families below.

The banner of the herald was shaken, and the teams of the horsemen who had already been deployed began to put down the spears in their hands in full armor, and rushed towards the officers and soldiers who had just gathered at the west gate.

The west gate is the farthest away from the direction of the shelling, and the most people escaped here, the soldiers are surrounded by their own commanders, and the Zhuang Ding are surrounded by the leading figures in the Zhuangzi, each of them is frightened, listening to the sound of the cannon in the east gradually stops, everyone has the heart to be busy with the finishing touch, and there are remorse and fear in Shangjiazhuang.

The thunderous bombardment just now was naturally shocking and terrifying, but the Shang family regretted that they had made a mistake, thinking that the official army could turn over and be the master as soon as they came home, and Xuzhou's industry in Guide Mansion could be swallowed up by taking advantage of the situation.

It turns out that Xuzhou is so strong, looking at more than 10,000 officers and soldiers, listening to a few ways to encircle, thinking that the momentum is not small, who would have thought that in front of Xuzhou Zhao Ziying could not hold on for a moment and a half, what to do next, Xuzhou means ruthless, everyone has heard and seen too much over the years.

"Confused, it's better to follow Xuzhou to fight the officers and soldiers, those people in Xuzhou still talk about the rules, this group of officers and soldiers is not even as good as thieves!" Someone scolded hatefully, his voice was not deliberately lowered, at this moment, there is no awe of the official government and the army, if you really want to merge now, Ding Zhuang Xiangyong of Shangjiazhuang is not unable to fight.

For such an unscrupulous offense, the officers and soldiers did not care much, and the officers and soldiers who escaped were even more panicked than the people of Shangjiazhuang, whether it was the Daimyo official army, the Henan official army or the border army infantry horse team, the Weihui Mansion regiment practiced or something, and they didn't know much about the strength and weakness of the Zhao Zi camp in Xuzhou, but today they knew that it was powerful, and their confidence and courage were directly beaten to collapse, and now they are only thinking about how to get out.

Like the sound of thunder hooves, the Xuzhou horse team was immediately found here, and someone shouted heartbreakingly: "The Xuzhou horse team rushed over!" ”
