I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

With the arrival of the cumbersome locomotive, the Qing army began a general offensive. However, the number of locomotives at this time had become four, and one of them had a wheel failure on the way forward.

On the battlefield, any accident can happen.

Each of the four bunkers can stand 8 people at the same time. As long as it goes well, the Qing army can attack the city wall with up to 32 people at the same time.

Of course, this is theoretical data.

No matter what equipment the attacking party has, the defending party will always have the advantage.

The firecrackers of the Ming Army had assembled and prepared, and a volley of fire was directed at the top of the car. Suddenly, a large number of Qing troops fell from the car.

The remaining small part of the Qing army jumped on the wall, and there were long swords and spears waiting. Those who were unlucky jumped on top and were directly stabbed through. If they were lucky, they didn't die immediately, but then they had to face countless Ming army counterattacks.

"Damn it, why hasn't the city gate been broken yet, what did Xue Guiren eat?"

Dong Tianbao said that the siege was a huge military operation. It was not only the ants attached to this unit, but the artillery was still firing at this time, and the archers and the gunmen were also shooting under the city.

The other unit led by Xue Guiren was hitting the city gate, and the entire battlefield had many levels of offensive.

Dong Tianbao was expecting the troops that hit the city gate to attract the firepower of the Ming army, but Xue Guiren's progress was not going well.

It is the people who fill the moat, and they will never lack combat skills. The section like the gate of the city actually needs to be filled with a small **** so that the collision can hit the city wall with the help of potential energy.

The people did not create such a slope. On a flat road, the impact force of the crash was entirely driven by the soldiers, and the impact force generated by this was far from enough to hit the city gate.

Moreover, the Ming army on the city wall kept hitting them condescendingly, causing heavy casualties to the soldiers on the carts. Xue Guiren in the rear was also anxious, but he had no better way.

On Dong Tianbao's side, the soldiers on several stairwells finally succeeded in jumping above the city wall, but the spearman who had already been prepared directly stabbed in the past.

After more than a month of training, the movements of these spearmen have been quite neat.

Several spears stabbed in the past, and the Qing army had no place to hide, and could only watch as he was pierced into a blood hole.

"Push up the reserve forces."

Wu Changqing saw that many Qing troops had already attacked the city wall, and immediately ordered the two hundred flintlock troops to be mobilized for reinforcement. Originally, this kind of force was intended to prevent the Qing army from attacking from other places, but at present, it seems that the Qing army has no such plan.

The Qing army did not forget to contain it in other directions, but because the army's siege equipment was limited, it was more difficult to form power if it was dispersed.

With the pressure of the reserve forces of the Ming army, the firepower of the Ming army increased further, and the fire blasts and another round of grenades, the soldiers under the city finally could not hold it, and fled back one after another.

All in all, Dong Tianbao's army has lost more than 1,500 people, and it has lost 30%.

This loss rate would have collapsed long ago in the field.

The siege was because there was a supervising team behind them, and they were only forced to collapse until now.

When Dong Tianbao's ministry collapsed, Xue Guiren smashed into the city gate.

It's a pity that it's no longer useful to hit it off at this time.

The city had long been full of three rows of flintlock soldiers, and in one volley, all the soldiers in front fell, and none was spared.

The remaining soldiers refused to go up no matter how much the officer urged the threat.

With the total collapse of the Qing army, Liu Liangzuo in the rear wanted only to kill and vent his anger.

After Dong Tianbao came down, Liu Liangzuo scolded angrily: "Whoever told you to retreat is one step away, only one step away from the city. Why did you order the retreat?"

"I will die at the end, not that the general will order a retreat. It is because our army has suffered too many casualties. There are more than 5,000 people in our army, and only 3,000 people have retreated. They have lost 30%, and the soldiers have no guts to fight again."

Dong Tianbao knelt down on one knee, suffocating in his heart, he did not agree with Liu Liangzuo's so-called only one step away.

He clearly saw that the Ming army on the city had more power, and it was impossible to win it if he continued to attack. Moreover, the morale of his soldiers has dropped to freezing point.

How could this kind of morale attack the city?

"I don't want to hear your explanation, I retreated without authorization, pulled it down and cut it."

Liu Liangzuo said angrily, he was already fascinated by anger at the moment, and he was going to cut his generals before the battle.

Several other participating generals and guerrilla generals knelt down to intercede for Dong Tianbao. These subordinates must unite at this time, otherwise they might be the next to be executed.

"Get down."

When Liu Liangzuo saw everyone begging for Dong Tianbao, he could only let go of his plan to kill and raise his prestige.

Subsequently, Xue Guiren's troops also retreated. This time, they suffered heavy losses again. Although they also caused some damage to the Ming army this time, compared with their own losses, it is not worth mentioning.

According to statistics, they lost more than 1,900 people this time and also lost a lot of siege equipment.

The next wave of siege will have to wait a few more days.

The Ming army’s losses this time were not small. More than 200 people were killed and more than 500 were injured. Among them, half of them were seriously injured and lost their combat effectiveness.

After the First World War, they also lost half of their troops.

What's more troublesome is that some flares and flintlocks have been damaged due to prolonged use. The damage of other parts can be repaired, but some of the bombed chambers are completely scrapped.

If every day is a battle of this intensity, then the speed at which they can build guns may not keep up with the speed at which they consume.

"Heal the wounded, clean the battlefield, and repair the city walls."

Wu Changqing ordered.

He is now collapsing first with Liu Liangzuo, he doesn't believe that Liu Liangzuo's troops will be so elite, and the loss will be so heavy that they can continue to attack.

As long as Liu Liangzuo's army collapses completely, he can plan a counterattack out of the city and wipe it out.

At the same time, a fleet of ships disguised as merchant ships on the Taihu Lake approached Wuxi and entered the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to the city of Wuxi, carrying out a sneak attack on Wuxi.

There were more than 4,000 defenders in Wuxi, and Wu Yi took only 2,000 this time, but the Qing army retreated steadily through surprise attacks.

In the panic, the Qing army guarding the city didn't know how many enemy troops there were. When some mobs heard that the city had been attacked, the Ming army had already invaded the city and immediately chose to escape.

The Ming army successfully attacked the place where the Qing army stored food, and set it on fire without saying anything.

Wu Yi was also reluctant to bear this batch of food, but there was no way, and they didn't have time to transport it away. If the evacuation is not completed quickly, and the Qing army reacts and counterattacks, then they will be in trouble.

Compared with Xiaoming, food is not that important.

Hundreds of thousands of catties of grain, in the fire, the entire Wuxi city was blazing into the sky.
