Chapter 1227 Thunder takes over the city

Li Benshen observed the enemy's city defense in the trench and made arrangements for the attack.

Soon, the general's artillery of the army was launched into the position, and the gunner quickly completed the loading.

This type of artillery is a reduced version of the siege mortar, weighing more than 1,000 pounds. Usually, the artillery and artillery mounts are disassembled and transported. During combat, the artillery is placed on a four-wheeled artillery chariot and accompanied the army.

In front of the Gan Army who had been through a long battle, the city defense of Turpan could indeed be said to be simple, but Li Benshen did not immediately order an attack.

Nowadays, when fighting in military wars, we always pay attention to how to defeat the enemy with the lowest cost and highest efficiency.

The war was won, but the army suffered heavy losses and had obvious mistakes in command, so it was necessary to go to the military court.

Because the army has become initially modern, it is difficult to lose in the face of backward forces around the country, so the construction of the army has become how to fight a high-quality war.

Li Benshen stood in the trench and continued to use his periscope to observe the enemy's city defense.

The principle of this periscope is relatively simple, but its function is relatively simple. It can only help officers hide in the trench and look at the situation on the ground, and cannot look at the distance like a thousand-mile mirror.

"Nan Jian, transfer a department to attack the city gate, attract all the enemy troops to the city, and prepare artillery!" Li Benshen finally waved his hand and shouted.

The military order was conveyed in the trench. A brigade commander blew a whistle, waved one hundred and two infantrymen, immediately picked up muskets, inserted bayonets, and fought in a row in the trench.

"Listen to my order, the formation of scattered soldiers, feint attacking the city gate, and jump out of the trench, don't gather together." The brigade coach shouted loudly, then blew a whistle.

Amid the screams, a department's infantry soldier immediately sent out a trench, then spread out on the ground, and attacked the city gate with muskets.

Now, before doing military wars and siege operations, there are professional military officers, that is, staff officers, to formulate war plans and plans.

After the military joins the army, they will conduct research on the configuration of artillery and weapons in the city, they will formulate a scientific combat plan.

Mooni on the top of the city saw that the shelling was completely useless to the Gan Army and could not hurt the Gan Army soldiers in the trench. When he was anxious, the Gan Army infantry jumped up from the ground.

More than a hundred people spread out on the ground, and Mooney quickly shouted, "Start the fire!"

After surveying and mapping, the Ganjun trenches were dug about two hundred steps below the city wall. This distance has entered. Most artillery shooting dead corners on the city. Unless a few people can lift up and lower the muzzle, most of the artillery cannons that cannot be lifted will not bombard the scattered scattered soldiers.

The cannons on the city were unable to bombard the city, and the musketeers and archers on the city began to shoot.

For a moment, smoke filled the city and gunfire sounded loudly, but it didn't work.

The infantry soldiers who were responsible for the feint attack mission were scattered in formation and did not approach the city wall within a hundred steps, making it difficult for the mezzanines on the top of the city to hit them, and the archers had few chances to even draw the bow.

After all, Yerkand is not a nomadic people, and there are not many contestants who can walk through the poplar hundreds of steps.

Attracted by the feint attack of the Gan Army and infantry, the Yarkand army on the city wall gathered more and more. Li Benshen observed the crowded heads from the periscope and immediately waved his hand and ordered: "Fire the cannon!"

"Fire the cannon!" The officer's veins roared angrily.

The Gan Army gunner immediately held a torch in his hand, lit the lead, and Mars penetrated into the cannon hall.

"Room" a few earth-shaking loud noises. Mooni felt the earth wall under his feet tremble, and saw white smoke rising from the trenches outside the city wall, and several black shells rose into the air, drawing an arc in the air and smashing towards the top of the city.

"Hidden! Cannon Stone!" The unsightly Yarkand general thought it was a cannon Stone fired by some kind of Hui cannon, so he hurriedly protected Muni.

"Boom boom boom!" At this moment, a ball of white light burst out from the top of the city, and thick smoke rose up, instantly overturning the Yerkand soldiers on the top of the city.

When Li Benshen saw the enemy troops on the top of the city being blown away by explosion, his figures were blown down to the top of the city, he immediately waved his hand again, "Attack!"

In the trench, whistles sounded one after another, and the Gan Army and infantry hurriedly lined up, and then jumped out of the trench amid the officer's orders.

For a time, Manye carried muskets, trench bridges and city ladders, and launched a tsunami charge towards the city.

Moonie pushed away the corpse pressing against him, and looked at the messy city with a swaying look. Hearing the wailing of the wounded soldiers around him, his whole head buzzed.

The Gan army under the city took advantage of the enemy's bombing and ran away, and arrived at the city in the blink of an eye.

The soldiers of the Gan Army laid a trench bridge on the moat, and carried long ladders and flew past the trench bridge.

At this moment, the defenders at the city wall finally came to their senses, and the musketeers and archers shot projectiles and arrow rains down the city.

For a moment, the soldiers of the Gan Army were constantly shot and fell off the trench bridge, but the soldiers carrying the long ladder rushed to the city and erected the ladder to climb the city.

"Shoot!" Mooni, who was stunned, came back to his senses. Seeing that Gan Jun was approaching the city wall, he quickly roared loudly and waved his sword to command: "Rolling stones, wood, tincture oil cans, smash them!"

The remaining defenders on the city wall hurriedly rushed to the side of the city wall, using various equipment to desperately prevent the Ganjun from entering the city.

At this time, on the hillside, under the flag of the big crow, Gao Huan saw from the thousand-mile mirror that the battle under the city began to become fierce, but Gan Jun performed very well.

When the Gan Army saw that the siege troops were suppressed by the firepower in the city, the musketeers behind immediately lined up in three rows under the city and raised the muskets to shoot at the top of the city.

Amid the "bang bang bang" gunshots, the defender who had just exposed his head and raised the stone to hit him down, was shot in the chest, and fell to the city with the stones.

Fucking the military musketeers, platoons and fired, suppressing the firepower of the city wall, gravel splashed on the city wall, and the defenders squatted behind the city wall and did not dare to show their heads easily.

At this time, a team of grenadiers rushed to the dead corner of the defenders under the earth wall under the cover of the musket team.

The grenadiers squatted down below, looked at each other, took off the grenades hanging on their bodies, pulled the wire to trigger them, and then threw them directly onto the city wall.

"Boom" sounded loudly, and the defenders hiding behind the city wall were directly blown away by the explosion. The soldiers under the city took the opportunity to climb upwards. Finally, the first soldier jumped onto the empty city.

"The army is coming!" The smoke of gunpowder filled the city, and the surviving defenders began to shout loudly.

Mooni held a scimitar and saw one after another of the Gan Army soldiers jumping onto the city. While instinctively retreating, he shouted loudly with a fierce look on his face, "Reinforcements! Reinforcements! Drop the reinforcements and drive the Gan Army down."

A group of Yarkand elite soldiers wearing chain mail in the city quickly reinforced the city gate along the street.

At this time, the artillery soldiers of the Gan Army seemed to have eyes and began to extend the artillery fire into the city. The focus of the artillery bombardment was the streets in the city.

"Boom boom boom" shells fell into the city, and the dense Yerkand soldiers on the streets were immediately overturned by the bombed people and fled everywhere.

This battle cannot be fought. The Yarkand army was like the Qing army that lacked training in the late Qing Dynasty, and had no power to resist the great powers.

Now the way of fighting in the army has been completely upgraded, forming a complete set of effective tactics.

After the defenders in the city fought against the Ganjun, they were completely passive, and it seemed that every move was predicted by the Ganjun in advance.

At this time, more and more Gan soldiers climbed to the city, and the defenders on the city wall began to flee into the city, and Gan soldiers followed the steps of the city to kill the city wall.

Soon, the city gate was opened by the army inside, and the suspension bridge was immediately lowered. The soldiers of the brigade immediately rushed into the city with red flags, muskets, and cheered loudly.

On the hill, Gao Huan saw this scene from the camera, then put down the Qianli Milestone and smiled and said, "Take it down!"
