Chapter 777: Soldiers are not bloody, take Jiujiang lightly
"What's the hurry?"
Sun Chuanting shouted, "It's not time yet, since we have come to Jiujiang, we don't care about this day and a half day, first give me a non-stop artillery bombardment day and night, into the middle of the night, every half an hour, bombing three waves, knowing that tomorrow at noon!" ”
Forehead......
Gao Jie was stunned and said: "My lord, if you keep bombing like this and don't enter the army, how can you take Jiujiang Mansion?" ”
Sun Chuanting said in a deep voice: "Gao Jie, what we lack now is not only time, but also people!" We are attacking the city with all our might, above the head of Jiujiang City, but there are still tens of thousands of troops, how many casualties will it bring us? The governor is to use artillery to destroy the morale of the defenders of Jiujiang City, and then launch a siege, leaving the southern city without defenders, and send cavalry back to the south of Jiujiang City, ready to attack at any time! ”
Gao Jie's heart moved, and he asked, "My lord, are you a soldier who wants to surrender without a fight?" ”
Sun Chuanting nodded and said: "Of course, as long as the morale of the defenders of Jiujiang City collapses, they will naturally collapse without a fight, and when the time comes, it will be effortless to take Jiujiang City in one fell swoop and drive them all out of Jiujiang City!" ”
Gao Jie was happy, Sun Chuanting was right, before the attack, the defenders of Jiujiang were already frightened, if the artillery kept bombarding for a day and a night, I was afraid that the defenders of Jiujiang City would really collapse!
One day and one night, even later, every half an hour, launched an artillery bombardment, which was enough for the Jiujiang army to drink a pot, all the defenders did not sleep all night, and the next day, they all stared at the city with a pair of panda eyes.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
The shelling began again, this is already the twentieth artillery bombardment of the Ming army, one day and one night, three or four thousand shells were fired at Jiujiang City, the entire north city of Jiujiang City, the bullet marks are heavy, covered with spider web-like cracks, the most terrible thing is that the Ming army only launched an artillery bombardment to the area of twenty or thirty zhang on the left side of the gate of Jiujiang City, which is obviously to break through a little, all concentrated in one place, this section of the city wall will definitely not last long!
"Fuck, these Ming troops, there is still no end, if you continue to bomb like this, it won't take three or two days for Jiujiang City to collapse......"
Han Long shouted angrily.
However, Han Long is a crow's mouth, he shouted, the artillery of the Ming army suddenly stopped attacking, the horn of the Ming army's charge sounded, and a group of foot riders launched an assault towards the city wall of Jiujiang City at the same time!
"The city is being attacked, the Ming army is attacking the city, the Ming army is attacking the city!"
The soldiers of Jiujiang City roared one by one, more turbulent and uneasy, full of fear, under the city, the Ming army pushed the siege ladder to the city wall and quickly approached it, and the cavalry continued to advance, the momentum was majestic, and the momentum was shocking!
"Order, release arrows, release arrows, don't let the Ming army approach the city walls! Hurry up and release the arrows! ”
Han Long roared!
The archers above the city head bent their bows and arrows one by one, desperately radiating feather arrows towards the city, and the arrows rained down, completely covering the distance of a hundred steps under Jiujiang City, however, the defenders of Jiujiang City were only able to use bows and arrows, but the Ming army under the city directly used artillery and muskets, not only dozens of artillery roared again!
Hundreds of cavalry armed with muskets, kept pushing forward, directly into the distance of two hundred steps from the city wall, began to shoot fiercely, this distance, not even need to dodge, just standing still, the bows and arrows of the Jiujiang army can not shoot here, the defenders of Jiujiang City were hit by bullets one by one, and they planted Jiujiang City one by one, Jiujiang City was in chaos, and the frightened soldiers were so frightened that they shrank behind the battlements on the head of the city, and never dared to show their heads again, it was so special, This musket can kill a person at a distance of 200 steps!
Jiujiang Town is in a remote corner, when Zhu Jie led the army to rise, they have always been far away from the war in the Central Plains, where have they seen such a ferocious firearm? The artillery is powerful, this musket is even more powerful, it can simply run rampant, no matter how powerful the infantry is, it will definitely not be able to stop such a dense musket fire!
Just when the defenders of Jiujiang were dumbfounded, a cloud ladder had been pushed to the bottom of Wuchang City, and it was set up with the head of Wuchang City, and the elites of the two towns of Nanjing began to attack!
Kill! Kill! Kill!
The elite infantry shouted in their mouths, and launched a surprise attack straight towards the city, along the ladder, quickly approaching the city, Han Long was horrified, and hurriedly shouted: "Order, fight back, fight back, the Ming army is about to climb the city, we must beat them down!" Beat them down, archers, shoot! ”
The defenders of Jiujiang Town trembled and showed their heads, and began to tremble and launch a counterattack, but their hands trembled, how could they shoot the feather arrows accurately, even if they shot accurately, how to round the bow?
Anyway, there are still some people who can insist on shooting this feather arrow, but as soon as these people show their heads, the musketeers of the Ming army have already shot!
Bang bang bang!
Another wave of musket shooting!
The unlucky defenders of Jiujiang Town fell down from the city one after another!
This battle can't be fought, the Jiujiang defenders shouted, turned around and ran, fart, Lao Tzu hasn't lived enough, run!
Zuo Liangyu has always been cunning, what he is best at is to preserve his strength, at critical moments, it is important to save his life, so when he encounters a strong enemy, the first thing is to retreat, but when the retreat forms a habit, it forms a habit in the hearts of the soldiers, this inertia is very strong, not to mention the soldiers, even before the generals, they are afraid of danger and difficulty, and it is a big deal to fight hard, and when they encounter a strong enemy, they want to retreat and escape.
Now that they have encountered the powerful two towns of Nanjing, especially the former town of Nanjing, they are even more powerful, and the soldiers of Jiujiang Town were stunned as soon as they came up, and they were completely stupid by this posture.
Zuo Liangyu dug the pit for himself, which can be regarded as killing himself, a group of officers and soldiers turned around and ran, Han Long shouted repeatedly, it didn't have any effect at all, in fact, why didn't Han Long want to run? It's just that in just one day and one night, Jiujiang City was lost, and I saw Zuo Liangyu in the future, this matter is not easy to explain, and I can't lose my head!
Han Long watched the soldiers of Jiujiang Town collapse, and he couldn't stop the retreat of the soldiers under his command at all, so he could only turn around and run, run, if you lose Jiujiang City, you may not die, but staying here, it is definitely a dead end......
Han Long also turned around and ran wildly towards Nancheng to escape, run!
A Jiujiang City, 10,000 soldiers, did not even hold on for a day and a night, and was attacked into the city by the Ming army, and the soldiers of Jiujiang Town were really useless, and the Ming soldiers took Jiujiang City without blood!
