Chapter 2950: : Manchu army siege the city (2/2)
That burst of vigor has been consumed by more than half, and it is unimaginable for an army to be hit by vigor.
Of course, these Manchu commanders knew this truth, but they had no way to solve it. They had to choose to attack the city the next day, because the only way to improve morale was to attack the city and defeat the place, so that the army knew that the enemy was not what they imagined. Strong, then morale will naturally increase at that time.
Therefore, the Man Qing began a thunderous blow on the next day, and launched a fierce siege. A series of cannons aimed at the city gate and the city wall. If such a continuous bombardment, it would definitely break the gate and the city.
Esdes also knew this very well, and she also knew that Man Qing would choose a fierce counterattack to boost morale the next day, so she was prepared to resist it early in the morning.
Cannons are not unique to the Manchus. Wu Sangui bought a lot of cannons in order to rebel and connect with foreigners, and Esdes had already been transported to this city in advance after he anticipated that the Manchus would go south in a big way.
Perhaps the current number of artillery firearms in the hands of Esdes’s forces is not as large as that of the entire Manchurian Qing, but the Manchurian Qing did not completely use thermal weapons. On the contrary, the artillery was only an auxiliary. Coming.
And Esdes transported many cannons in his sphere of influence to this city. The number of cannons in the city alone is not much different than the number of cannons carried by the Qing army. After all, the Qing Dynasty can never get all of them. If all the cannons are transported over, how can they suppress other places? Every province and every city always needs to leave some defenses, so that the gap between the two sides of the cannons is evened.
So the next day I saw the Manchu Qing launch a cannon, so that the Han soldiers and horses of the Manchu army would take the lead in attacking the city. The morale soldiers on the wall did not have the slightest fear. The cannons in their hands were not parallel imports from the Ming Dynasty. The quality of cutting corners is not enough. On the contrary, these cannons are of high quality and definitely not lost to the Manchu cannons.
Moreover, it has a great advantage to fight condescendingly on the wall, so there is no fear for the soldiers of the Manchu siege wall, but a murderous look.
”Sitting on the city, those who are not in front of the battle will be cut!” The Manchu commander shouted. Of course, they could not let the Manchus be the cannon fodder for the siege. Instead, they would use the Han. Of course, the Han soldiers would dare not be angry. Dare to say, they can only pinch their noses if they let their generals become Han women.
”Fire!” Esdes coldly shouted as soon as they saw them approaching. The sound spread throughout the battlefield, and a series of cannons began to fire, and they blasted against the cannons of Manchu. Of course, other than that A brutal siege battle has officially begun to bomb the enemy forces rushing over.
