Wu Jun's siege force was divided into several parts, among which the key attack was the gap in the collapsed city wall.

In charge of attacking the gap were the 22nd Brigade and the Death Squad of the 2nd Division, which consisted of pure arquebusier troops.

Their way of fighting is to get close to the enemy, then fire a salvo from a few meters away from the enemy, and then launch a charge.

This tactic may seem simple, but it is actually very effective.

A salvo at close range can cause extremely terrifying damage. That kind of scene, it is easy to frighten the enemy.

As long as the enemy is frightened, they will rush up to fight meleely, and they can crush the opponent in momentum.

Even if they didn't frighten the enemy, they wouldn't suffer in hand-to-hand combat.

There are also death squads and grenadiers assisting them in attacking this gap. If they encounter stubborn resistance from the enemy, they will have to send death squads and grenadiers to fight to the death.

In addition to this gap in the key attack, the Wu army in other places launched an ant-attached siege. Various ladders and buildings leaned against the city wall and began the most brutal siege battle.

Without the cover of the flintlock troops, the Qing troops on the city walls emerged one after another and started throwing stones, pouring oil, pouring gold juice and shooting arrows at the city.

"Grenadiers get ready, others get ready, and climb immediately when the bomb goes off."

A company commander of Wu Jun shouted that their company was assigned three grenadiers to support. These three grenadiers are not ordinary people, their arms are a full circle larger than others, and they are as thick as others' thighs.

This is the result of long-term training, in order to be able to throw the grenade farther.

Only these people can throw grenades on the city wall more than six meters high, and ordinary grenadiers have no such arm strength.

Throwing grenades also requires skill, rich experience, and accurate timing.

If it is too slow, it will explode without throwing it on the city head, which can only injure one's own people. It was thrown too fast, and it didn't blow up when it reached the front of the city, and it was easy to be thrown back by the enemy.

In the early days, the Qing army did not understand grenades, and when they encountered grenades, they were all fleeing and evading. But now, the Qing army has summed up some experience, seeing the grenade thrown up, the best way is to rush over to pick it up and throw it down.

Of course, this requires a lot of courage and courage, and most people simply do not dare to do this.

To this end, the Qing army formulated a rule that as long as a grenade was successfully removed, they would be rewarded with five taels of silver directly after the war.

The rewards are very high, but well worth it.

A grenade can sometimes have some impact on the situation on the battlefield. It can successfully throw the grenade back to the enemy, reducing losses and killing the enemy, and the benefits are very large.

To the helplessness of the Qing army, the Wu army has also been improving. The grenadiers are not training their arm strength every day, or they are training to control time.

Under long-term training, it takes almost one second for each number in their minds to recite, which is very accurate.

Three grenades were thrown at the head of the city, and there was a sudden panic in the Qing army, and soldiers near one grenade fled.

The other two were soldiers who wanted to seek wealth and wealth and tried to pick them up and throw them back.

However, the one who escaped did not escape, and the one who wanted to throw it back didn't have time. The grenade just threw it on the city head, and then it exploded.

Immediately the front of the city was emptied, and a large number of soldiers lay on the ground screaming.

At this time, Wu Jun under the city wall had already taken the opportunity to start climbing.

"Support over there."

On the top of the city, the generals of the Qing army saw this situation and immediately sent reserve troops to replenish them.

At this time, Wu Jun had just climbed halfway.

The speed of climbing the ladder is definitely not as fast as the Qing army running on the flat ground.

Those Qing troops who arrived in time ignored Paoze who was lying on the ground screaming, picked up stones and threw them on the head of Wu Jun who was climbing.

In the face of this condescending attack, the soldiers who were climbing had nothing to do. Lifting the shield is useless, the huge impact is simply unbearable.

And climbing with a knife in one hand is already the limit, and there is no extra hand to hold a shield. The operation of biting a large knife that weighs several pounds with your mouth is limited to film and television dramas.

Seeing a large number of soldiers falling off the ladder, the company commander of the 334th Company stomped his feet angrily. Almost, just a little bit, they could climb the wall.

As long as they climb up, they've already won half of it.

"Again."

The 334th company commander shouted, this is the most effective way to siege the city, and there is no other better tactic. So this time it didn't work out, all they could do was try it all over again and try their luck.

Anything can happen on the battlefield. If the enemy's response is a little slower and the support is a little slower, they may be able to go up.

The grenadier rubbed his arm, then began his second throw.

They are similar to archers. The number of throws they can throw in a battle is limited. After seven or eight throws, their arms will lose their strength.

After all, they are not children playing the house, throwing stones is within their means. Every time they throw, they need to use all their strength.

It's not that easy to throw something that weighs several pounds to a height of six or seven meters.

This time, there was a grenadier who didn't control the strength and didn't throw it up.

The grenade exploded on the way down, and the iron pieces that shot out accidentally injured a lot of Wu Jun under the city.

This is also impossible, the current weapon is

There are so many flaws. Of course, even a weapon with such flaws is a big killer in this day and age.

The two grenades thrown on the city wall exploded again, killing and injuring at least eight or nine Qing soldiers, while also causing some confusion.

On the city wall, the wounded soldiers had not been dragged down yet, but six or seven more wounded were added. The general of the Qing army who was in charge of commanding on the city head had a bitter face as if he wanted to cry.

This battle is really too difficult for him, with such a terrifying consumption rate, not to mention whether there are so many reserve soldiers, even if there are, those soldiers will be scared by this battle loss rate.

Where is this fight, it's clearly going to die.

"Eagle support, hurry up."

The squad numbers among the Eight Banners soldiers are not like one, two, three or four in the Han army, but are named after various animals, such as Eagles, Tigers, Bears and so on.

The number of this kind of unit alone is behind the Wu army.

There are more than 100 people in an Eagle team, so it is impossible for more than 100 people to rush to replenish it.

If it is Wu Jun, they can directly call a certain platoon or a certain class to come forward. More precise and concise commands can make soldiers move more quickly.

Don't underestimate this subtle difference. On the battlefield, these subtle differences accumulate, and sometimes they can affect the situation on the battlefield.
