Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 231 Leizhou City Breakdown (please subscribe!)
In fact, the fortification of Leizhou City was even worse than that of Guangzhou City.

The urn city, the moat, the inner and outer cities, and horns are everything. If you use cold weapons, such a place exists like a fortress, and it is difficult to take it down.

Fortunately, Liu Liang, the Leizhou garrison, had many personal soldiers under his command. They formed a supervising team and forced the deserters to go up the city wall and shoot at the Ming guards.

There was no way, the green battalion gunners had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue shooting.

The Hongyi cannons on the city wall of Leizhou Mansion seemed to be fired without money, even if they missed, they had to bombard them indiscriminately.

They continued to attack in the direction where the shells came from before. However, the mortars of the guards had already changed positions, and they did nothing!
At this time, there were only 5000 Green Battalion soldiers in the city. This was the case when Xu Wen was defeated, and 5000 soldiers was already the most powerful force in Liu Liang's hands.

You know, in Guangdong during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom period, there were no more than a thousand Qing soldiers under the garrison jurisdiction of Leizhou. It is only now that the Ming Dynasty has risen and occupied Qiongzhou Prefecture, and the number of Qing soldiers on the Leizhou Peninsula has increased.

However, this force is dwarfed by the number of "thieves" under the city.

Liu Liang just observed it. There are at least 4 people. Even if it is a city defense battle, the absolute inferiority of this kind of force is not easy to fight.

So Liu Liang abandoned the supervisory team and turned around to recruit a large number of regiments in the city for training.

His goal is to increase the number of defenders in the city to at least 1, otherwise there is no chance of winning.

If it weren't for the limited number of weapons in the city, he thought it would be a pity to recruit more strong men.

As night fell, the guards did not exert their full strength. After more than 1000 casualties, Leizhou City barely held the first day.

Liu Liang could only bet that the Guards' ammunition was limited, otherwise he wouldn't be able to last for a few days. He had already sent someone to the General's Mansion in Guangzhou for help. Under the night, he sighed and didn't know how long he could last.

The bonfire on the wall of Leizhou City was constantly burning, and there were a few green battalion soldiers or temporary young men standing in each section, and occasionally a patrol team passed by to inspect the situation of the clearing soldiers standing guard.

But no matter how bright the city wall is, the wild world is still dark, except for the little fires in the opposite camp.

At about three o'clock in the morning, Qin Zhiguo issued an order for a general offensive.

The Johor garrison, who had been resting for a day, is finally about to appear.

Zhu Kezang said that to consume more of these Nanyang natives, Qin Zhiguo faithfully understood the spirit of Zhu Kezang's instructions, otherwise he would have taken it with all his strength during the day.

"attack!"

The Johor garrison wore simple armor, and the strength of the first wave of night attack was 5000.

They walked forward cautiously at a cat's pace, and went straight to the city wall of Leizhou Mansion.

The Johor garrison was very careful, but the Qing army was not vegetarian, and they soon discovered that there were few Johoreans.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

Boom boom boom.
The green battalion gunners who reacted hurriedly aimed the Hongyi cannon at the Johoreans below.

Accompanied by the sound of horns and cannons, the Green Battalion soldiers in the city were finally awakened. They gathered on the city wall one after another, and the conscientious Leizhou garrison immediately went up to the city wall.

Seeing that it was discovered, the indigenous commander of the Johor Garrison immediately broke the jar and ordered:

"Warriors! Meet death with our chests! Siege with me!"

The Johoreans blew the horn of charge. Facing the barrage of guns and bullets from the Green Camp and the volley of bows and arrows, they paid more than 500 people to carry the ladder to the city wall.

But when they set up the ladders, the rockets on the top of the city were fired immediately. Under the command of Liu Liang, countless rockets concentrated on the Johor soldiers who were carrying the ladders without hesitation.

All of a sudden, those soldiers ignored the shields in their hands in order to set up the ladder. Without protection, they immediately suffered a large number of casualties.

After paying hundreds of corpses, the Johor garrison finally set up a few ladders.

On the city wall, seeing that the infantry of the Ming army were so easy to kill, many people finally breathed a sigh of relief, even Liu Liang, who was under the most pressure, let out a long breath.

If the Ming army has this kind of fighting power, then there is a chance to wait for reinforcements from the General's Mansion in Guangzhou!
With the help of the ladder, almost each of them rushed forward with a big wooden shield, climbing up desperately.

In fact, they are here to consume the ammunition of the green battalion soldiers, and the soldiers of the Johor garrison don’t have much armor to protect themselves. Even with wooden shields to resist, under the defense of the green battalion, many Johoreans can’t even go up the city wall. was killed.

Seeing that the first wave of temptation by the Johor garrison was about to be suppressed by the Qing army, Qin Zhiguo calmly dispatched a second wave of 1 Johor soldiers.

The refueling tactics allowed the Qing army to break through the city in despair.

Countless ladders rushed forward under the yelling of the Johoreans, and the Johoreans finally climbed to the top of the city of Leizhou Prefecture and started a fierce battle with the Qing army!
The people of Johor can't play with muskets, but they are not afraid of death in hand-to-hand combat.

The guards in the distance are also giving fire support to the Johoreans.

Although sometimes the shells are indistinguishable from the enemy and the enemy, because the two sides have become a mess on the city wall, and it is impossible to distinguish the enemy from the enemy.

But it doesn't matter, the Johor garrison is exhausted, so I will go to the Johor province to collect a wave.

The green battalion soldiers on the top of the city are human beings after all. They have been tired all day, and they finally collapsed in the face of a large number of Johoreans.

"Run away! There are too many people on the other side, and they are all monsters who are not afraid of death!"

At the scene of the great escape, Liu Liang, the defender of Leizhou City, was so angry that he jumped up and down.

The rule of the Qing Dynasty in Leizhou was weak, and the military salaries were suppressed layer by layer by the officials. These soldiers didn't want to sacrifice their lives for a little money.

Liu Liang was so angry that he raised a knife and hacked several deserters to death, but it didn't help. More and more soldiers escaped.

At this moment, a mortar shell flew down and hit his feet precisely, and then exploded violently, blowing him away.

"Master Garrison is dead! Let's run away!"

"Are you still here to die?"

The Green Battalion soldiers left without hesitation, and those Qian Zong who had sneaked in with money, Ba Zong, didn't care at this moment, and left the city wall.

You Bing is the grass head king, and they hurriedly took their men to flee for their lives.

Only some training regiments are still fighting.

Qin Zhiguo looked at the scene in front of him with a telescope, and couldn't help feeling: "Those who look like militiamen are actually more desperate than the regular army of the Qing Dynasty!"

It's a pity that no matter how strong the fighting will of the regiment is, it can't match the pig-like teammates, as well as the huge number of Johoreans and shells.

Amidst the rumbling artillery fire, the city wall was quickly and easily occupied by the Johor garrison.

The city gate was also opened by the Johoreans, and the guards entered the city in an orderly manner and continued to fight.
