Daming Military Empire

Chapter 507
It was not a wrong decision that Gushi Khan did not order the second wave of siege troops to retreat, because even if they turned back, they would have to be bloodbathed again by shells. They rushed forward to consume the strength of the Ming army.

His biggest mistake was underestimating the strength of the Ming army, or in other words, he should never have listened to Tsarist Russia's instigation and led the army to attack Daming.

Of course, it's too late to say these things now, he is already riding a tiger, 1 people have already rushed up, and they can't even withdraw.

He could only use the binoculars to watch the siege troops nervously, hoping that they could rush up the city wall and clean up the Ming army on the city wall!

Can his wish come true?

What answered him was a horrific hail of bullets, and he gritted his teeth angrily when he saw the battered siege troops.

Only now did he realize that he was completely deceived by Rozov and Kopelov. What kind of shit firearms they gave were not the same thing as Daming's firearms at all.

There is no artillery that can't move, the landing point of the shell is fixed, it's just bullshit, Ming's artillery can obviously be adjusted, the shell is like having eyes, sticking to the siege troops, the shell is not fixed at all The landing point!

The siege troops finally survived the hail of bullets and rushed to the bottom of the city wall, and there were only four thousand people left.

Of course, if these four thousand people can all rush up the city wall, it will also cause huge losses to the Ming army.

However, his hope was once again in vain. What the Ming army dropped first was not rolling stones or lumber, but fist-sized, round black bumps, which would explode when they touched anything. Once they exploded, the nearby soldiers would be puzzled Rolling on the ground!
No one was killed in this round, but there was a lot of ground gourds under the city wall, at least thousands of people were blown and rolled on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, there were rolling stones, wood, hot oil, and boiling water again, and the siege troops lost nearly 1000 people.

Finally, someone climbed up the city wall. Although there were only 2000 siege troops left, there was still a fight, because there were only more than [-] Ming troops on the city wall.

Gushi Khan's hand holding the binoculars began to tremble. He watched nervously the hand-to-hand combat on the city wall. The Ming army finally suffered casualties. At this time, the city wall was already in chaos. Should we continue to attack?

At this moment, he had a lot of thoughts in his head.

After losing so many people, they managed to attack the city wall. If they did not continue to attack, the second wave of siege troops would face the danger of annihilation;

The city wall is in chaos now, and the Ming army must have no chance to shoot;

The other three sides are still attacking, if his side stops unilaterally, wouldn't the other three sides be pitted;

Most importantly, he hasn't figured out how many Ming troops there are in Hamiwei. If there are more than 1 Ming troops in the city, then if there is another wave, the city wall is very likely to be taken down!

In the end, he decided to take a gamble. It was already like this, how could he be reconciled if he didn't try.

So, he gritted his teeth and ordered: "The third wave, come on."

"Kill." There was another burst of screaming and killing, and the remaining [-] Wacha soldiers on the east rushed towards the city wall.

Hou Gongji could have organized troops to quickly drive down the enemy troops on the city wall, but he didn't because he wanted the enemy to continue to send people to attack the city.

The more you come, the more meritorious service you have. This is just one aspect. More importantly, the besiegers of Hamiwei are all cavalry. If other friendly forces want to destroy them in the wild, I don’t know how much they will pay. Now they have finally given up on themselves. The specialty, came to attack the city, of course, we must try our best to attract as many people as possible to come up to die!

Seeing that the enemy finally dispatched the third wave of siege troops, he put down the binoculars, took the iron gun from the guard, and shouted: "Go."

After all, take the lead in rushing towards the place where the enemy is densely populated.

The hundred personal guards under him were carefully selected from among the 1 people. Not only are they good at marksmanship, but they also have more or less practiced skills, just like the special forces of later generations.

Although there is no talk of special forces in the Ming army, generals above the general division will call together more powerful soldiers to act as personal guards, which can often have miraculous effects.

At this moment, Hou Gongji rushed up with the hundred guards, it was like chopping melons and vegetables, the enemy troops on the city wall were quickly wiped out!

At this time, the third wave of enemy troops had rushed to a distance of less than two hundred steps from the city wall, and it was too late to fire artillery. Hou Gongji directly ordered: "Order, all artillerymen and those who are seriously injured will go down the city wall, and the others can still fight Immediately aim and shoot, and in addition, let the third and fourth battalions of a regiment come up to support."

The personal guards dispersed, and soon, a small half of them lay on the city wall and started shooting, while the artillerymen supported the more seriously injured infantry and quickly retreated from the city wall.

As soon as the wounded soldiers withdrew, another two thousand infantry rushed up, quickly scattered on the city wall and started shooting.

At this time, the enemy's vanguard had almost rushed to the bottom of the city wall, and there was no time to prepare hot oil and boiling water on the city wall, only some rolling stones and lumber were left.

Hou Gongji directly ordered, everyone, throw away all the grenades on their bodies!

At this time, a thunderstorm almost fell on the city wall, and countless grenades still entered the crowd below, and there was a scream under the city wall.

However, someone still grinned and raised the ladder below to climb up the city wall.

Gradually, more and more enemy troops climbed the city wall. At this time, there is no strategy at all. The two armies clash, and the brave wins!

Fierce hand-to-hand combat immediately broke out on the city wall. Countless Wacha soldiers climbed up the city wall and were stabbed down again. The soldiers of the Ming army also suffered heavy losses. There is no light on the moon.

In the distance, Gushi Khan was still holding up his binoculars, watching the situation on the city wall nervously, his face getting paler and paler.

Half an hour passed, and the Ming army on the city wall still showed no sign of exhaustion, and the third wave of siege troops was almost exhausted, so he couldn't help saying to Assad next to him: "Assad Taiji, can you You can't let your men continue to rush up and attack the city."

Assad shook his head resolutely and said: "Khan, we are cavalry, and siege is not our specialty. Besides, there are many Ming troops in the city. If we continue to attack like this, we may not be able to capture Hamiwei. There is even the danger of annihilation of the entire army, let’s forget it. Didn’t you say that Daming has a total of 5 troops in the northwest? It seems that they have gathered at least [-] troops here, so there will definitely be insufficient manpower in other places. We might as well go Try your luck elsewhere."

Gushi Khan heard the words, put down the binoculars slowly, and said unwillingly: "Mingjin, withdraw the troops!"

There was a sound of clanging gold, and the siege troops staggered back. It looked like everyone was seriously injured, and some of them were even dragged back.

The Ming army took no further action, and both sides finally died down.

After the war, after the statistics, Gushi Khan almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

The Wacha soldiers in the four directions suffered heavy casualties. Out of the 2 people who rushed up behind, less than [-] were able to run back, and all of them were wounded, many of them seriously injured!
