Chapter 28 The Great Era Part Two: Sunset in Orenburg (Part 2)

 The Truchens' shelling shocked Orenburg.

What is even more shocking is the heart.

Although the Truchens' artillery fired very accurately, it was still in the 18th century. Even if the shells fell to a rough range after test firing, the error was very large after all, and it must not be compared with later generations. This is by fire

Pharmacy, materials science, and erectics.

Therefore, although there were many grenades, and the shotguns fell to the city, causing great damage to the defenders, many shells still crossed the city and fell into the city - in order to accidentally hurt their own army.

The possibility is greatly reduced, and the error range will definitely be pushed to the side of the city as much as possible.

However, the Russians were not French, Spanish, nor Prussian, Austrians, and they surrendered as soon as they saw that the situation was not good. They developed an astonishing endurance to the death rate in the previous battle against the Mongols.

/p>

This is true even if they are serfs with no social status.

This cannot be explained simply by Orthodox Church.

In history, only the Mongols and the Poles had conquered their capital. The next time they stood firmly in the Western world, the arrogant Napoleon, and there was nothing they could do to fight the German army.

Of course, we can't just explain it by the cold climate.

Although there were heavy casualties, the militia in the city still stood there.

But if this continues, it will be a game problem - is the Truchens' shells consumed first or is the young and strong in the city completely lost?

This is also something to be expected. Although heavy snow days are fine for both sides, it is obviously impossible to carry a large amount of ammunition through land, and the young and strong in the city is also limited.

As for the Cossacks, their fighting will was obviously not as strong as the Russians. When the Truchens' fifth round of artillery bombardment began, they went down on the grounds that they were cavalry and could not lose their losses on the city walls in vain.

Since the people in the city will not come out, the Truqin army outside the city can be freely bombarded and cleared cannons and stopped.

Therefore, it seems that the shelling outside the city has not stopped, but in fact it is also a break.

The shelling continued like this for half a day. At noon, the sound of the cannon came to an abrupt end.

In addition to the Truchens who needed lunch, they naturally had the moment of waiting for the situation in the city to change. If there hadn't been the Pugachev uprising at this time, they would have never done so and would have carried the ladder up long ago.

But they have to do this - anything that benefits oneself.

The Truchens had a slightly larger population than Prussia, but their fiscal revenue was three times that of them, and a large number of them were spent on the army. This was also impossible. Their political environment was even worse than that of the Prussians.

High-ranking official residence.

Reinstealp walked around the warm living room with some anxiety, and the morning casualties had been sent to him.

One morning, hundreds of militia garrisons garrisoned on the wall near the Ural River were killed and injured!

This is really terrible. You can't continue like this, otherwise the whole young and strong man in Orenburg will be exhausted soon.

As for reinforcements on both sides of the east and west, I can't count on it at all. It will take at least three days for Davidov to come back, while it will take at least six days for Chalijin to come!

Besides, it is conceivable that since the Truchens have officially declared war, they will not just stare at Orenburg. Whether Chalizin can come is still a question.

As for the Kulakin Brigade in the lower reaches of the Ural River, it was restrained by the defenders of Taybak City of Truchen and could not get through at all.

Soon, the city's police chief, the Cossack leader, the left-behind cavalry company commander, and the Kazakh leader all came.

It can be seen that he didn't care whether the Cossacks were loyal. After all, Ivanovic was the only person in the city who had been the commander of the Cossack brigade. In terms of combat experience, no one is richer than him.

The militia in the city were led by the police chief. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Mr. Senior official, you can't fight like this!"

Reinsteulp didn't say anything, just asked a few people to sit down first.

"Then tell me, what should we do?"

"Only a small number of people are left on the city wall, there is also a lookout in the enemy's barracks, and we can see the situation of our city wall. When they find that there are not many people on the city wall, they will definitely not waste shells. Once they are ready to attack the city, the artillery will not be the same.

It will fall, and the militia will be on standby at the city.”

"Also, our biggest mistake was to let the artillery stay on the city wall from the beginning. When the enemy's morning shelling was hit, our artillery could not hit them, but their artillery fire caused a large number of casualties to our artillery!

It also damaged a large number of cannons!"

"Nothing", Reinstealp shrugged, "Just let the remaining artillery train militia to use them"

"Your Excellency!"

Reinstorp waved his hand and asked him to shut up quickly, then smiled and looked at Kazakh leader Karatai and Cossack leader Ivanovic.

"What do you think?"

Karatai is like Ashalai among the Truchens. In the past, it was because of the Tsar's detention that he became a major general at a young age. In fact, their military abilities are pitifully small, and Ashalai's abilities are all achieved.

Karatay, who was trained after the Truchen Army, had never participated in the battle, let alone.

Ivanovic originally wanted to speak, but after thinking about it, he still held back.

"Battle Commander, you are the most experienced here, please express your opinion"

But Reinstolp did not let him go.

Ivanovich sighed in his heart and said, "The Truchens must have made complete preparations to arrive here in the snow. Needless to say, the Charizin side will not come, but in Troyc

Ke must have intervened in the direction of them, and General Davidov could not get away with him."

"So, we had to guard the castle. I know that some people were like going out of the city to fight with them. First of all, they were all in the camp, and they could only die if they rushed over. Even if they were willing to fight with us, they wanted to defeat them.

The possibility of cavalry is not high”

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Reinsteulp nodded, "I also know that it is important to guard the castle, but how to follow the law?"

"The young and strong in the city were divided into several groups and took turns to garrison the city wall. The army of the Truqins was stationed in the south of the city, and the artillery was fixed and it was difficult to move. Obviously, they would only come to the south of the city wall.

So our young and strong can be divided into dozens of groups”

"If they could hold on for ten days, they would definitely not have much ammunition and food. They would retreat after seeing our will to defend the city"

"Secondly, most of the wars in other places have changed, and then we will determine the strategy based on the specific situation"

Although the others didn't care about Ivanovic, Reinstelp valued his opinions very much. Finally agreed to his approach and asked him to assist the police chief to organize and command.

The expected civil strife did not occur.

In the afternoon, a new round of bombardment began. This time, the frequency and density of the Trucheners bombardment were much higher than in the morning. An hour later, there were almost no people standing on the city wall, and even the lookout hand ran away.

The soldiers on the camp's watchtower quickly reported to Yamankara.

"Teacher Commander, the enemy's artillery on this section of the city wall has almost been destroyed, and a new plan can be implemented"

Yamankara nodded and immediately issued a new order.

The sound of shelling sounded again, but this time there was only one cannon every time it was bombarded, and the interval was still very long.

During this period, a battalion soldiers rushed up with a ladder. When they approached the castle about 100 meters, a mortar company had already set up a cannon position under the city!

A new round of bombardment has begun!

However, this time the sound of the cannon was obviously much smaller than the one just now.

At a distance of one hundred meters, the accuracy of the mortars that were shot with high elevation angles was much better than that of the field cannons. After a dense sound of cannons, the infantry had already put the ladder on the city wall!

At this time, the Russian militia who were watching from a distance also saw this, and they quickly passed the news to the police chief and Ivanovic.

"Go!"

However, they wanted to climb from the corridor to the city wall at almost the same speed as Truchen soldiers climbed up the ladder!

Just as the Truchen soldiers at the end of the ladder were about to emerge from the city wall, they all shrank their bodies down!

Then the dense sound of mortars sounded again!

After three consecutive rounds of artillery bombardment, the Truchen soldiers jumped onto the city wall!

At this time, some soldiers kept firing at the end of the corridor with two rotary pistols in their hands, while some soldiers threw grenades from the side close to the city!

At this time, the field cannon in the distance adjusted the direction of the muzzle and bombarded the militia that were rushing towards both sides of the city wall!

"Boom..."

This is the shotgun launched by the soldiers attacking the city wall with their short-barrel cannons in their hands at the rushing militia!

Another hour later, the Truqin army of a battalion completely occupied this section of the city wall after paying a small amount of casualties!

The war that follows will be insignificant.

However, considering the combat effectiveness of the Russians, the soldiers of this battalion who had climbed the city wall did not immediately go down the city wall to open the city gate, but continued to rely on the city wall to kill and injure the militia coming from the street and the city wall!

It was another sunset, and a few red sunset appeared near the huge sunset, and the west end of the vast white earth. The war this day ended again!

At this time, a regiment of Truchen soldiers had already reached the city wall!

On this day, at least two thousand young and strong people died in the offensive and defensive battle in the day!

However, near this section of the city wall, there were still a large number of Russian militias confronting them, and Reinstolp also issued an order to use the houses to resist one after another.

In the camp outside the city, Yamankara and Omubu started talking again.

"General, if there is a surprise happening, it's tonight. A regiment of our army has already stepped on the city wall and can enter the city at any time. This is very psychological pressure on the people in the city. It's fine with militia, but for Kazakhstan.

The influence of people and Cossacks is huge”
