Chapter 574

After each battle, a post-war conference must be held to sum up the gains and losses of the war, the advantages of the enemy and the shortcomings of our army, which they should sum up and sort out into documents for archiving.

They have to do this when they win a war, not to mention that they are almost defeated now. If they count, they are defeated today. There are many problems, so they call officers at all levels to study and see what happened.

This is not because their combat effectiveness has declined, nor has the enemy become particularly powerful. When the cold weapon forces are strong to a certain extent, they can no longer be strong.

They first analyzed that it was related to the weather, their artillery could not be transported, and their army habitually accepted the cover of artillery.

When they had no artillery cover, and most of their grenades failed because of moisture in close combat, they began to catch them blind and panic. The enemy took advantage of it and attacked them.

Under the same conditions, it was not easy for even the more powerful JianNu to break through their defense line, but when they did not have artillery and grenades and failed, the soldiers panicked and were at a loss. As a result, they were in great confusion. Although they were attacked under the cover of the city wall, if he did not make a quick decision and turn the tide, even his own people would shoot, I'm afraid the city has been lost.

But Liu Feiyun also knew that they were very taboo about shooting at their own people, which would certainly attract the hatred of soldiers and the verification of military judges, so he immediately wrote a review, gave a detailed description of the matter, reported it to the division headquarters, and let the boss assess right and wrong.

Liu Feiyun knew that if he did not solve this matter, it would cause great trouble to his career and even be arrested and dealt with by military law.

After summing up the advantages and disadvantages of both the enemy and ourselves, they put forward targeted deployment and suggestions, mainly on how to face tomorrow's battle. They all know that today's battle is extremely cruel, but one thing is certain that the battle has just begun.

They can't retreat for no reason, and they also blocked the only way for the enemy to go south. They have no choice but to attack from here. Can they still climb mountains and mountains in this ice and snow and attack Texas? This is impossible.

Therefore, some officers suggested that in any case, they should send a batch of cannons from the back, as well as grenades that can be used.

Because their soldiers are used to fighting under the cover of these firepower. Without the support of these firepower, they are different from their usual training and are not used to fighting.

When Liu Feiyun heard this, he became angry and became angry on the spot. He said: "Can't you fight without cannons? Can't you fight without grenades? Don't the Tianxiong army opposite have cannons and grenades? We can't defend with guns. People attack with knives? You're shameless."

Being scolded by Liu Feiyun, his men were also a little embarrassed and couldn't lift their heads. However, an officer said, "our training is different. If we just use this way to fight, our brothers will be very uncomfortable."

Liu Feiyun said loudly, "we have to adapt if we don't adapt. The road is closed by heavy snow, the road is not quiet, and the artillery can't be transported. We either win the enemy and guard Nanpi, or let them kill us all and capture Nanpi."

The key is to have a problem, that is, the weather is very cold now, and their production of gunpowder, grenades and shells has greatly decreased, which makes their supply and demand very tight. You know, if people wear more clothes in such a cold weather, they will not be flexible. If they don't wear clothes and bake a fire, whose gunpowder factory and shell factory will dry the fire?

Their factory has always been on two shifts. After the cold winter, they can only work during the day and can't start at night. Because it's too cold at night, they don't dare to bake or heat in their factory. Therefore, the output has decreased greatly, which is also the reason why they lack weapons in this regard.

However, Liu Feiyun still thinks that when their Liu Jiajun was just established, they had no artillery and grenades. Just relying on bows, arrows and muskets, they played their own territory and prestige. Now the scale has expanded, but they have become weaker. Without artillery, they will not fight. He also knows that this is very bad for the army OK.

Their cannons are heavy things. It's impossible to follow them all day. If they don't have cannons, they don't have to fight?

Therefore, they immediately formulated a new mode of operation to deal with the enemy's attack tomorrow. They knew that the enemy took advantage of it today. They would certainly not give up. They would come back tomorrow. How to fight this battle well and keep Nanpi and their own lives has become a matter they attach great importance to.

Liu Feiyun said, "once again, if you want to live, keep Nanpi. We live or die together with Nanpi."

Sure enough, the next day, the Ming army launched a new offensive, and their army took new measures, that is, a large number of their soldiers pushed huge shields and advanced step by step under the cover of shields and shield vehicles.

If Liu Jiajun's artillery were here, their tactic would make the artillery blow them to slag, but Liu Jiajun now only has a catapult, which will give them a chance.

The catapult is far inferior to the cannon in terms of firing speed and accuracy, so this gives them a chance.

Lu Xiangsheng knew very well that Liu Jun had a lot of fire guns in his army, which was the main body of his army, which meant that their close combat ability was poor and they were not the opponents of the elite soldiers of the Ming army with big knives and spears. If they exchanged fire with each other remotely, they would certainly not be the opponents, but if they were close, it would be completely different.

The victory they achieved yesterday is also a breakthrough made after they sacrificed countless lives. In that case, why don't they approach directly under the protection of shields and shield vehicles, and then launch a fierce attack?

Liu Jun and his musketeers are deployed on the city tower. There are not many Musketeers in the Ming army, so they can only arrange a large number of archers here to suppress the fire on the city wall. When the people on the city tower are almost killed, then take the opportunity to attack the city, and the opportunity comes.

Lu Xiangsheng timely adjusted the strategy, that is, learned from yesterday's experience, and then readjusted it.

If it was such a strategy yesterday, it would give less and huge blows to the Ming army at the beginning, reducing a large number of casualties.

However, the Ming army is adjusting, and Liu Jiajun is also adjusting. They use a lot of wood and stones on the wall. The other party uses them when they are deployed under the city. If they are 20 or 30 meters away, they use grenades to bomb.

The Ming army rushed under the city wall and was hit with stones, drenched and splashed with hot water when they set up the ladder, which dealt a great blow and damage to the Ming army assembled under the city wall.

They suffered a great blow at once. If their personnel did not assemble, they could not form fists. When they assembled, they were easily attacked by the Liu family army in the city.

Moreover, Liu Jiajun also learned from yesterday's lesson because of the lack of artillery. They got a lot of grenades without moisture-proof use. The concentrated use of these grenades dealt a great blow to the officers and soldiers of the people's army assembled under the city.

Moreover, they learned the lesson of yesterday, that is, they arranged a lot of civilian men and strong men to go up the city wall and let them be responsible for the management of boiling water and pouring water down.

This pot of boiling water and hot oil poured down the city, which burned the Ming army directly under the city and screamed.

Lu Xiangsheng saw that a large number of people were deployed on the wall, and immediately ordered his archers to move forward bravely and suppress the wall.

However, the effect of his measure is not great, because Liu Jun has more Brawn crossbow archers and more powerful suppression against them.

Their ordinary swordsmen are better. They hold a shield to resist their shooting. If they are archers, they can't hide behind the shield and shoot arrows. They can only shoot at the Ming army in the city. The casualties are very heavy.

Yesterday, Liu Jiajun in the city received a lot of blows, so they moved a lot of door panels here. These soldiers guarding the city held the door panels, which can effectively resist the attack of arrow rain. Today, their casualties are much less.

However, the Ming army under the city has the advantage of quantity, and their are also very brave. They still rushed close to the city wall, set up a ladder, climbed up desperately, and launched the most tragic fight in the city. Although the Tianxiong army is very brave, they are facing the enemy with fire guns.

Their muskets are far superior to the Ming army. They are very powerful Musketeers in the regular army. Liu Jun has great advantages in this aspect. When the enemy attacks the city with all his strength, the casualties are very heavy.

Although the accuracy of these guns is not very good, their power is quite amazing. Once they are hit, there is basically only a dead end.

Stimulated by patriotism, killing the enemy and serving the country, these Tianxiong troops are very brave and continue to rush towards the city wall, but their casualties are also very heavy, falling in batches.

Of course, attacking the city is also quite dangerous. If you are not careful, you will easily lose your life. Moreover, Liu Jiajun is a famous elite. Their soldiers are young and strong, their equipment is very sophisticated, and there is no shortage of food. It is not easy to defeat them easily. Lu Xiangsheng is very distressed to see so many soldiers and their men lose their lives.
