Otherwise, there will be an accident. I can definitely stick to the support of the Shaanxi Governor’s Office.
Thousands of garrison soldiers took advantage of the fact that the loyalists outside the city were temporarily unable to attack and block out the city to clean up the battlefield and collect their urgently needed gunpowder with joy after victory
Zhu Dadian, Shandong Province, is welcoming several ministries with a gloomy face and a depressed face.
Seeing that there were suddenly a few generals missing, Zhu Dadian frowned and asked, "How many people are there? Don’t you know that they are not afraid of military law when officials gather here?"
The lieutenant around him replied with a dignified face, "My Lord hasn’t come yet. Except for one general who was seriously injured, he has been sent to the rear for treatment, and three generals have died in the battlefield …"
"Died …" Zhu Dadian asked with a face of incredible.
In Zhu Dadian’s impression, there are a large number of pro-guards and officers who won’t get hurt, no matter how fierce the battle is, they can leave the battlefield alive.
However, in the immediate battle, several generals with thousands of soldiers were lost at one time, which had to be shocked by Zhu Dadian and shocked from the heart.
Of course, this shock is not for the dead generals, but for the tiger and leopard troops equipped with sharp firearms.
Seeing the battle for two days in a row, Zhu Dadian knew that both ordinary soldiers and senior officers could not avoid death in front of the sharp firearms of the Tiger and Leopard Army.
After the shock, Zhu Dadian didn’t forget to call everyone together.
Pinched his heart and shocked the consequences. "The attack failed again … There is one specific reason, that is, the firearms of the defenders in the saltworks are too sharp …"
"Not only that, all of us here were cheated by the tiger and leopard army defending the saltworks in front of us …"
"Everyone thinks that the firearms of the defenders in the saltworks have been done, otherwise they hid the firearms and gave us a fatal blow at the most critical moment …"
"Now it seems that this fatal blow is really big for us … three thousand generals died in battle and one thousand general was seriously injured … ha ha … it’s really a huge loss …"
With a mocking smile, Zhu Dadian was unwilling to fail after his face passed. His eyes suddenly shot out two shirts and then said to the Ministry.
"Your generals’ attack on the saltworks was the first military action after the governor of Shandong Province … Shandong officialdom looked at our court and looked at our emperor. This military action must not fail …"
"But if you want to win the battle, you must know yourself and know yourself. It’s a truth that we failed in two consecutive attacks because we didn’t know ourselves and know ourselves …"
"Now the officer should know how many soldiers we have left …"
Zhu Dadian asked a series of questions, and all the generals lowered their heads and said nothing.
Seeing this, Zhu Dadian couldn’t help but jump even though he had a premonition that the troops suffered heavy losses.
A bad feeling also came to Zhu Dadian’s mind.
Zhu Dadian looked at the lieutenant around him and had to answer, "How many troops did the ginseng attack? Except for the musketeers and archers, the siege team was almost lost."
"According to statistics, less than 100 people came back from the retreat of 4,000 siege troops."
"The musketeers who were directly shelled by the Tiger and Leopard Army lost more than 500 people … The archers who were attacked by the Tiger and Leopard arms gunmen also lost more than 400 people …"
"In addition to not participating in the war today, you have brought 10,000 troops, leaving a total of 1,300 musketeers, 900 archers … and less than 100 ordinary soldiers …"
"Even less than three thousand people, but also some musketeers and archers who don’t have much fighting capacity …" Zhu Dadian asked with a full face of incredible.
Chapter four hundred and twenty Counter-offensive
Zhu Dadian was shocked after being repeatedly confirmed by the lieutenant around him. He had to accept this very cruel fact for himself …
At present, all the ministries will look at it in a low tone and say, "That is to say, we have no military strength to attack the saltworks except those who have no fighting capacity …"
Or just talk lieutenant crustily skin of head out again to answer "adult if there is no follow-up reinforcements, our existing strength does not have the ability to attack saltworks, but for the attack that just failed, we are not a gain."
Speaking of which, the lieutenant directly took out a battlefield misfire Grenade.
After handing it to Zhu Dadian, he said with a serious face, "My Lord, this explosive iron knot is the weapon captured by the soldiers on the battlefield. The soldiers on the battlefield have no room to fight back. Most of the losses in our attack are caused by this weapon …"
"At the end of the day, I will understand that this is the Grenade that the Tiger and Leopard Army said."
After carefully looking at the hand grenade weighing a kilo in the handshake, Zhu Dadian asked, "Can we call a blacksmith to copy such a powerful weapon? If we are also equipped with this kind of firearm, we can throw it into the city wall and let the defenders of the city wall have a taste of being bombed …"
Lieutenant nodded his head and affirmed, "When adults get this kind of firearm, they will have shown it to military craftsmen. Give them enough iron, gunpowder, matchrope and they will be able to make it …"
"At the end, I will ask adults to temporarily stop attacking the saltworks … and then attack the saltworks after we build enough grenades for subsequent reinforcements to arrive …"
After the lieutenant finished speaking, a company commander who had just returned from the battlefield was still wearing a bit of smoke. He suggested, "At the end of the adult, in addition to reinforcements, we have to adjust more powerful artillery. It is best to transfer several red cannons in Jinan City Wall …"
"Tiger, leopard and army flower bombs are too powerful. A red cannon that can launch flower bombs can suppress the defenders’ artillery more than directly blowing a gap in the wall flower bombs …"
