Chapter 526 Li Dingguo: Let the enemy enter the city!
Heavy armored infantry with muskets, this combination is simply impossible. In the East Asian battlefield in normal history, it is almost invincible. Rumor has it that the Qing army conquered the world with cavalry and archery, but the real situation is that the Qing army relied on bows
The army of Jia Li. The Qing army attached great importance to iron armor from the moment it was established. It was precisely because of having a heavy armored infantry in hand that could withstand hard battles that the Qing army had the last laugh in several battles of national destiny.
.
In the battles of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Ming army suffered from equipment disadvantages that should not have occurred. This has to be lamentable! Compared with national strength, industrial manufacturing level, production capacity, and military investment, the Qing army could not compete with them.
Compared with the Ming army, even if the Ming Dynasty did not produce much good iron due to the quality of its iron ore, it was still not comparable to a regime that had not completely gotten rid of tribalism. But with such a huge advantage, the equipment and equipment of the front-line combat troops
It's a big joke that the treatment is worse than that of the opponent.
Fortunately, after traveling through time, Zhu Youjian whimsically opened the technology tree of breech-loaded muskets, and developed high-explosive gunpowder and vigorously developed the steel industry, thus forming an absolute equipment advantage in a short period of time, thereby reversing the situation.
Situation. Of course, even if you don’t open the technology tree of high-speed and high-explosive guns, it is not impossible to equip the Ming army with the ability to fight the Qing army head-on. The only trouble is the problem of time and the problem of enemies inside. In a sense,
, among all the unfavorable factors and enemies faced, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties were actually a relatively easy force to deal with.
In real history, with their superior equipment, the heavy infantry of the Zheng family performed very well in frontal combat with the heavy infantry of the Qing Dynasty. Omu did not turn the tide, and lost because of his personal military and political abilities! It can be said that
Ohmu-kun is a bit too historical and consequential, and he is treated as a genius among geniuses. As a normal person, his achievements are already quite remarkable, so it is unfair to be too demanding.
As a second-generation person, it is extremely capable to push the situation to that point when the mainstay of the family suddenly changes. It is impossible for God to send Nan Ming a man who has both Damu's financial resources and Li Dingguo's war power.
The peerless genius of Sun Kewang's internal affairs ability has emerged. The competition in the world is to compare whose leadership group has better overall performance, whose shortcomings are the fewest, and whose integrity is stronger, rather than whose top talents are better and whose
Long items are more prominent.
Returning to the main story, back to the Guangzhou battlefield, three days have passed since the Zheng family's infantry advanced to the gates of Guangzhou City and launched a land and water siege.
However, at this time, the city of Guangzhou was still in the hands of the Xiying, and the Zheng family's official siege battle had not made progress. The heavy artillery could not knock down the city wall of Guangzhou. At most, it would be impossible to stand troops on the wall. But when the Zheng army stopped
After the bombardment, when the battle to climb the city began, Xiying could always quickly appear on the city wall to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Zheng army who was climbing the city. In the hand-to-hand battle to climb the city, Zheng Jun's armored soldiers and musketeers had average advantages, and their muskets were still equipped as before.
The guns are mainly used, and at most they can only shoot once. The hired black musketeers will not even do such a dangerous job as climbing the city. It is very difficult for the bulky armored soldiers to climb the city. Although after climbing the wall,
The resistance would take longer, but the people of the Western Camp were determined to fight and would eventually control the city wall defense line, and finally drove Zheng Jun off the city.
There was another trouble on the battlefield, that is, Zheng Jun had to separate his troops to guard against the Xiying cavalry that was guerrilla outside the city. Li Dingguo's troops outside the city had 30,000 to 40,000 troops, mainly motorized cavalry. This group of troops,
Although there is nothing that can be done to Zheng Jun, it can still play an obvious role as a containment force.
"Starting from tomorrow, the number of troops attacking the city will be reduced. Let's deal with the rebels outside the city first, or drive them further away from the city. These flies are too insufferable, so let's leave them to deal with them.
It is very unfavorable for our army to attack the city. As long as we drive away these gangsters, even if it is a siege, we can kill the bandits in the city." The battle situation was not going too smoothly, so Damu was ready to adjust the rhythm.
Now it seems that it is a bit impossible to defeat the Western Camp soldiers and horses in Yanzhou City one by one. The enemy garrison in the city is actually a good player. The battle to defend the city is quite organized and is a tough one.
.In this case, let’s deal with the soft persimmon first! That Li Dingguo outside the city is very ordinary, and he may not be able to fight a big annihilation battle! As for Guangzhou City, as long as it is surrounded and spent for a period of time, it can be defeated
Death from consumption, anyway, the Zheng family is not short of money and food, so there is really no one more afraid of consumption than consumption.
After the war had raged for three or four days, the pressure on Guangzhou City had eased a lot, and the Zheng family's attention turned to Li Dingguo's headquarters outside the city.
After another four or five days of fighting, Li Dingguo's camp was driven farther and farther away from the main city. However, Zheng Jun did not achieve the most ideal results! The main force of the Western Camp was far away from the city, but their rangers would still attack from time to time.
The appearance of people outside the city is still disturbing the people like annoying flies. As for annihilating the soldiers and horses outside the city, it is even more impossible to achieve. The slippery bandit army will turn like the wind, and it will not be possible at all.
There is no chance of encirclement and annihilation.
Forget it! That's it. Although flies are very annoying, they can't affect the overall situation. The siege has been completed. Damu thinks that no matter what happens, the situation should be mine. No matter whether it is the thieves in the city or outside the city, they can't change the situation.
Victory in the war is only a matter of time.
"Fourth brother, you have to find a way to go back to the city and send a message to the boss in the city. If you defend it for a long time, you will lose. Guangzhou City has been besieged for about ten days. If we can't continue like this, we have to find a way to break the situation."
In the temporary camp, Li Dingguo looked in the direction of Guangzhou City and told Ai Nengqi in a firm and calm tone to go back to Guangzhou City.
"Second brother, have you got a good idea to defeat the enemy?"
"There is no good strategy! There is only one dangerous move. Go tell the boss and ask him to let Zheng Jun into the city and then entangle them in the city. As soon as Zheng Jun enters the city, I will lead the army to cover up his camp and kill Zheng Jun's rear.
The roads will be disrupted, and then we will use chaos to win in the city."
"Let the enemy enter the city and win through chaos? I'm afraid my second brother is not very sure!"
"So this is a risky move. If it's not done right, we will not only lose the city of Guangzhou, but also suffer heavy losses to the army. However, this is the only way to defeat the enemy. Tell the boss, give it a try! At the same time, he
You must also be prepared. If nothing can be done, rush out of the city immediately and retreat in the direction of Zhaoqing. I will leave some troops to meet you in this direction. In the past few days, I have carefully observed the situation of Zheng Jun. Their Iron Man team
and musketeers, have more obvious advantages in wild battles, but the restrictions in the city will be relatively large, and it will be difficult to fully exert their strength. As long as our army fights to the death, there is a chance of winning. In addition, except for a few elite soldiers and horses, the Zheng army has
The discipline of their soldiers and horses was average, and their fighting spirit and combat power could not compare with their iron men. This can be seen from the situation of their camp. Taking advantage of the chaotic moment when they entered the city, I led the main army to cover up and kill them. There was a big difference.
It may cause confusion in its army and form a fighter plane!"
