Chapter 154： Launch a total offense
"When we go down, these soldiers will lose control and collapse in an instant. The order will be passed down and some soldiers will go down the city wall to escape."
Li Chengdong knows that the morale of the army is extremely low at this time. If the Lord retreats and avoids at this time, the soldiers will worry that the Lord will have escaped.
Therefore, even if it is dangerous to stay on the wall, he cannot retreat. He must let his soldiers see himself.
In order to reduce losses, he also ordered some soldiers to go down the city wall to hide, reducing the density of soldiers on the city wall. In this way, even if it is hit by a shell, fewer people die at once.
He didn't dare to withdraw all the soldiers, if Wu Jun suddenly attacked the city now, it would be too late to react.
"The enemy is tougher than we thought."
All the generals on Wu Jun's side were very relaxed, which formed a sharp contrast with the bitter melon faces of the Qing generals.
"It's almost there. Order a general attack."
Liu Hansan said that it was just a four-meter-high city wall, and he really didn't care about it.
As for the forty thousand troops in the city, he didn't take it seriously.
After a period of misfortune, Liu Hansan also mastered some common sense of the art of war, and learned that soldiers are more expensive than good, not more.
Although having more soldiers has the advantage of having more soldiers, if you are not elite enough, this numerical advantage will also become a disadvantage, which is easy to collapse.
The biggest factor affecting the morale of soldiers at the bottom is their own casualty rate. Once the casualty rate is too high, soldiers will be afraid of fear.
Liu Han gave the command of the general attack three times, and the next specific command didn't need him to worry about.
The various units have already been assigned tasks.
First, the flintlocks stepped forward to suppress, and then the siege troops followed.
Among these siege troops, there are sword and shield soldiers who climb the city walls, grenadiers who are responsible for providing fire protection and fire support, and snipers who can move freely in the team.
Their task is to move freely, find the officer's target, and then kill it.
The entire battlefield looks chaotic, but it's actually very organized.
"Order the soldiers to go up to the wall immediately and prepare to meet the enemy."
When Li Chengdong saw the enemy preparing for a general attack, his heartbeat accelerated a little.
Thousands of flintlock troops went to the next stop on the city wall, and those Qing troops who came up to the city wall squatted down and did not dare to appear. They all knew that this outdated city wall could no longer protect their own safety.
"The blunderbusters and archers stood up and retaliated, and the war-fearers slashed."
Li Chengdong continued to give orders, and those low-level officers hurriedly forced the soldiers who had long-range attack methods to fight back.
Suddenly, various gunshots, bows and crossbows, and screams continued.
Both the Wu army and the Qing army suffered a large number of casualties. In contrast, the Qing army suffered more severe losses, at least twice that of the Wu army.
Because their rate of fire was too slow, the rate of fire of the matchlock gun was in front of the rate of fire of the flintlock gun, so they could only be beaten.
The archer's rate of fire is not low, but archery is an individual effort. Shooting eight or nine arrows in a row will cause the arm to lose its strength.
In general, the firepower density of Wu Jun's side is much higher than that of Qing Army, occupying a great advantage.
Faced with this kind of equipment suppression, Li Chengdong could only grit his teeth and had no choice.
This was already his only means of counterattack. Although it was a loss, it could cause some damage to Wu Jun anyway.
He can only hope that Wu Jun's fighting will is not as good as his own, and he will retreat first because he can't bear this loss.
It's just that he obviously thinks too much.
Compared with the fighting will, there is no other unit that can compare to the Wu Jun's first division.
They are people who can face the charge of 20,000 cavalry and keep their formation intact. It can be said that they are all people who have walked through the gates of ghosts and have long looked down on life and death.
It doesn't work if you don't look down on it. People with a bad mentality can't even sleep in such a high-risk occupation. The sudden madness of soldiers in the army happens from time to time because of too much psychological pressure.
In the first few rounds of shooting, the Qing army could barely resist.
But with the lack of strength of the archers and a large number of casualties, the soldiers of the Qing army have begun to panic. This kind of queuing and shooting, life and death depends on God's matter, really not many people can withstand it.
If it weren't for an officer carrying a broadsword to supervise the battle, these low-level soldiers would have already slipped away.
"Snapped."
Among the many flintlock shots, there was occasionally a slightly different sound.
It was the sound of a rifled gun, and the sniper shot.
With the actions of these people, some Qing generals on the wall began to die in large numbers.
It was not particularly obvious at the beginning, but after a few rounds of accumulation, many Qing troops have discovered that there is no official around them.
Those who were not officials forced them to counterattack with a knife, and they instinctively squatted down to save their lives.
Anyway, they can see that this city cannot be kept. They don't care whether this city is lost or not, they only care whether their lives can be saved.
"What is going on, why has the strength of the counterattack weakened?"
Li Chengdong discovered that his counterattack was much weaker than at the beginning, which is strange. You know, although they have killed a lot of long-range soldiers, their strength is so large that they are always replenished at any time.
In such a short period of time, there will be no shortage of troops.
"It seems that the generals in some places have been shot dead, no one is in charge, and the soldiers are afraid to move forward."
Zhang Yingyuan observed for a while and came to a conclusion.
"It's **** bad."
Li Chengdong cursed, he has not yet received a report on the rifled gun, so he does not know that Wu Jun has a weapon for shooting officers.
He thought it was bad luck for the generals to be shot and killed frequently.
"what."
Li Chengdong screamed as soon as he finished cursing, and he himself was shot.
But luck was not the worst, it was his arm that was shot.
Because of wearing the armor, the bullet only scratched a large piece of skin on his arm.
Although it is painful, it is not fatal.
"Medicinal wine, take the medicinal wine to clean the wound."
Li Chengdong's soldiers shouted, although they only scratched a piece of skin, it was a gunshot wound. You must not take it carelessly, otherwise the wound will fester and fester to death.
They have seen this situation many times in the battle report.
After fighting against Wu Jun many times, the Qing army actually summed up a lot of experience.
For example, if you are hit by a bullet, you must wash the wound with medicated liquor and then wrap it up with a clean cloth.
Although they are not clear about the principle, after some experiments and conclusions, they concluded that this has a certain effect.
Of course, ordinary soldiers who were shot would definitely not receive such treatment, and could only wait to die.
Senior military officers like Li Chengdong, even with a scratched arm, can enjoy this luxurious treatment.
"Master Zhang, I beg you here."
The moment he was shot, Li Chengdong was also frightened to death, thinking that he would have to confess his military life here.
Fortunately, he was only shot in the arm and recovered a small life, but he didn't want to stay on the wall.
Injury is also a good excuse to hand over the task to Zhang Yingyuan.
Zhang Yingyuan scolded his mother in his heart, and agreed.
