Looking at the land that he left a month ago, Taylor had only one thought, and that was revenge.
"General Taylor, please tell me from the front, should we continue to attack the city, or after a rest, we will attack tomorrow."
A British soldier stood straight in front of Taylor and asked with a military salute.
Taylor looked at Shao Tong from a distance, slid his finger down gently, and shouted: "Gong."
Although it was getting dark now, after the artillery fire, the British army still launched an offensive horn.
At this moment in Shaotong City, there are [-] Han troops gathered, and Kong Wei is the leader.
Kong Wei is no ordinary person, his family is the descendants of the world-famous Confucius family.
It is precisely because of this identity that Kong Wei was able to rise to the top. In addition, when he studied abroad in his early years, he was very open-minded.
Therefore, when encountering Chang Wei's uprising, Kong Wei joined it without hesitation, becoming the current general step by step.
This time, under Fang Tangjing's arrangement, he stuck to Shao Tong.
Unexpectedly, in less than a few days, the British army had already killed them.
Before that, Kong Wei had already strengthened the defense in Shaotong City, so it was no problem to stick to it for the time being.
But looking at the menacing British troops outside, Kong Wei still sighed in his heart.
When studying abroad in his early years, he deeply knew how big the equipment gap between the Chinese army and foreign powers was.
If there is no change, it is only a matter of time before Shaotong City is broken, not to mention that the British army still has the superiority in numbers.
At this time, Kong Wei displayed his reputation as a descendant of the Kong family. .
Chapter 539
Shaotong City is strong, covers a huge area, and has a population of hundreds of thousands.
Coupled with the fact that it is located in an important traffic route, the development is very rapid.
Kong Wei sensed the menacing approach of the British army, and immediately mobilized the whole city.
With the help of Chang Wei's reputation and the reputation of the descendants of the Kong family, ~ the effect is still very good.
The number of young and middle-aged people who participated in the registration has reached [-].
Although these people have never been on the battlefield or touched firearms, their current task is to defend the city. Relatively speaking, they are still very useful.
At least it saves the time for many soldiers to come and go to transport ammunition and rolling wood thunderstone.
Conway was ready, and the British attack began.
As the overlord of the world, the equipment of the British army is luxurious.
Those artillery bombarded desperately towards the city wall as if they didn't want money.
After a few rounds, hundreds of Han soldiers were killed.
Although Kong Wei was heartbroken, he could only let the soldiers continue to shoot in the artillery fire.
There is no way, if there is a slight pause, the British army will break through the city and the front will collapse.
Huge casualties have never been seen by the Han army since the start of the war. Facing the artillery fire of the British army, some people who are not determined have the intention to retreat.
But at this time, veterans often stand up and stand in front of them, setting an example.
Behind them is the base camp of the Han army, and there is no retreat at all.
Kong Wei also sighed, even though he knew the power of foreign artillery, he was still surprised when he saw it.
It was too fierce, even if the artillery fire of the entire Han army was added up, it would probably be about the same as them.
"Soldiers, behind you, make our homeland, our land, our relatives, once lost, our family will be abused by foreigners, and the lives will be ruined. These are not what we want to see In the end, pick up your weapons, aim at the foreigners, and kill them."
Seeing that he did not have an advantage in weapons and equipment, Kong Wei shouted and took the lead in the charge, but the foreigners who attacked the city stood together.
Although the weapons and equipment at this time are developing at a high speed, there are no fully automatic weapons.
After a gun is fired, there is always a short time to load it, so in close combat, most of them still engage in knife combat.
Perhaps in the impression of many people, these foreigners just have an advantage in firearms.
This idea is very wrong.
Foreigners not only pay attention to the development of weapons, but also pay special attention to their own combat effectiveness.
The simplest example can often explain everything. In a bayonet fight with the Qing army, one British army can often defeat three Qing armies.
Kong Wei set an example and joined in the hand-to-hand combat. For a while, the shouts of killing continued.
Under the strong resistance of the Han army, the attack of the British army gradually eased.
Whether it is wars with other countries or every battle to invade China, it has never been the same as it is today.
Not only did he pay a heavy price, but he also gained nothing.
In the distance, Taylor's brows also gradually froze.
Although he hated Chang Wei very much in his heart, he also understood that he had made some achievements in politics and diplomacy, but on the battlefield, he was similar to Xiaobai.
The reason why they were invincible along the way was only because the British army had a strong front and did not encounter much resistance.
Now, when he encountered a hard stubble, the generals among the generals who he was also very knowledgeable convened to discuss countermeasures.
After some discussion, almost everyone agreed.
That is to temporarily stop the attack on Shao Tong to avoid those fearless casualties.
The 5000 British troops were divided into [-] teams, each with [-] soldiers, and surrounded Shao Tong tightly without any leaks.
At this time, thirty miles away from Shaotong City, Chang Wei was on his way overnight.
Following behind him were the most elite eight thousand soldiers of the Huben Battalion in the entire Han army.
This is also all the troops that Chang Wei can mobilize at present.
After leaving [-] soldiers and horses in Hanzhong, Chang Wei asked the remaining [-] troops to start supporting various defense lines.
And the most powerful team of the enemy naturally had to be dealt with by Chang Wei.
"By the way, what do you think is the name of Shao Tong's guard now?"
While breathing for a while, Chang Wei asked Fang Tangjing.
Fang Tangjing replied, "King of Han, it's Kong Wei."
"Oh?" Chang Wei said with a faint smile: "It turned out to be him, with the same name as this king."
Fang Tangjing responded, "Don't underestimate Kong Wei, the King of Han. He studied in England in his early years, and he knows the political and military affairs of Britain like the back of his hand."
· · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·???????????????
"Speaking of which, it's really interesting. It seems that this king underestimated the talents of his subordinates before." Chang Wei said jokingly.
After several days of journey, Chang Wei and the soldiers of Baqian Huben Camp did not feel tired at all.
Under Chang Wei's ideological indoctrination, what they thought in their hearts was to rush to the front line quickly and fight the enemy bravely.
"King of Han."
The spy reined in his horse and saluted, and said loudly: "The foreigners have been attacking the city for an afternoon, but there is no progress. Now, they are being divided into twelve barracks to surround Shaotong."
"Understood." Chang Wei looked at Shao Tong's direction and pondered for a moment and said, "Send the order to rest on the spot."
......... 0
With an order, Baqianhu Benying immediately sat down, but no one lay down.
No one will care what is under their feet, just follow the order and complete the unified action.
Today, the sky is hazy, but it has not entered the night.
If you go any further, you will definitely be discovered by spies from the British army.
In the final analysis, the Huben Battalion led by Chang Wei is a lone army, appearing in front of the British army, it may not be able to take advantage of it.
For the present plan, the only way to take advantage of the relaxation of the British army is to carry out a surprise attack when the night comes.
Although this is the simplest trick, it is often the most practical trick.
Sure enough, when the night came, the British defense gradually relaxed.
The team patrolling outside has dropped from hundreds to less than a hundred.
Maybe they think that the Han army in the city is already a turtle in the urn, or that there are no reinforcements from outside.
Indeed, according to the current intelligence, the Han army cannot draw any troops.
However, it was not other troops who came this time, but Chang Wei himself.
In the past, as long as Chang Wei appeared, there was no unwinnable war.
The British barracks are divided into twelve camps, and there are three camps in each direction of Shaotong City.
In other words, the [-] British troops guarding the north gate are currently in Chang Wei's field of vision.
These British troops were facing Shaotong City from the front, and only a few thousand guards were left behind to prevent accidents.Four.
Chapter 540
After some observation, Fang Tangjing's eyes showed melancholy.
"King of Han, I never imagined that these foreigners could be so well prepared."
Chang Wei's eyes were only on the defense line of those foreigners, so he could understand what Fang Tangjing was going to say.
The foreign troops in the rear did not use their bodies to defend their positions, but dug trenches and opened barbed wire at the same time.
In this way, even if there is a sneak attack, it will not have much effect.
The product of this modern warfare is already fully manifested at this moment.
"I'm going to feel wronged brothers."
After taking a panoramic view, the answer also appeared in Chang Wei's mind.
These defenses look flawless, but they also have their weaknesses.
That is, the British army inside will have a certain blind spot of vision.
Maybe this blind spot does not support the entry and exit of large-scale troops, but there is still no problem with a small army.
What's more, the British army inside must have been careless.
If not, there would not be only such a few guard posts outside.
Finally, night came.
In the age of wars, night is always more terrifying than daytime.
Once it's night, whether it's a general in the army or a commoner, they all hang their heads on the waistband of their trousers, and it might be gone the next moment.
But the British Army was different.
Although at night, they are also very cautious.
Similarly, they also know a lot about Huaxia's art of war.
But so what, noble chivalry often blinds them.
Sometimes the victories that can be achieved by night raids are often sneaky behaviors in their eyes and are not adopted.
So, despite the fact that the British army did a good job on the surface, they never thought that the Han army would carry out night raids at night.
In the middle of the night, Chang Wei personally led the team, and the soldiers of the Huben Battalion behind them crawled forward. From a distance, the ground seemed to be swaying in the wind.
If you don't look carefully, you can't see anything at all.
Moreover, it is night now, and people's sights will be more or less obstructed.
At a distance of several hundred meters, Chang Wei led the soldiers forward little by little.
This process was boring and slow, and the soldiers did not dare to make any large movements for fear of being noticed by the enemy.
