Chapter 338： Launch a total offense

On September 2, Wang Zhiren's confidant returned to Hangzhou and reported the results of the trip to Wang Zhiren.

"It's unreasonable, Huangkou Xiaoer, no one looks at him."

Wang Zhiren used an idiom to curse Wu Changqing.

Because the treatment Wu Changqing gave was a naked humiliation in his opinion.

He is also a grandfather of the country anyway, and he still has 20,000 soldiers and horses under him, so he can be regarded as a figure who can control the local situation.

However, Wu Changqing only gave the position of an ordinary teacher.

You know, Wu Jun now has more than 20 division commanders. Plus the commander above the division commander, the minister of logistics, the army staff, and a large number of senior civilian officials.

An ordinary teacher in the Wu Jun can only be regarded as the middle class, not the core high-level.

"Hmph, isn't Wu Changqing who doesn't look down on us? Okay, I will fight him to the end. I want him to know and despise my price."

The reason why Wang Zhiren is full of confidence is mainly because his subordinates performed very well in defending the city two days ago, which gave him a little more confidence in defending Hangzhou.

In his opinion, as long as there are enough grenades, Wu Jun can't help them.

He was already imagining that when Wu Jun was helpless with them, he might take the initiative to persuade him to surrender. At that time, higher requirements can be put forward.

Wang Zhiren wasn't completely confused yet, he knew he could barely defend the city. But it is absolutely impossible to defeat Wu Changqing.

Therefore, deep down in his heart, he still yearns to be able to surrender.

Unlike Fang Guoan, who has a knot in his heart, he has great resentment towards Wu Changqing and Liu Hansan.

As a result, he was so afraid of being absolutely weak, Fang Guoan's will to resist was also very firm.

On Wu Jun's side, Liu Hansan also received a secret order from Nanjing to tell him about Wang Zhiren.

Ever since, Liu Hansan waited for another two days, waiting for Wang Zhiren's reply.

After waiting for two days without waiting for Wang Zhiren's people to come, Liu Hansan judged that the other party must be dissatisfied with the conditions of surrender. Or maybe it was revealed and slaughtered by Fang Guoan.

"This guy is really greedy."

Liu Hansan mocked.

"It might be because we didn't attack with all our strength some time ago, so he mistakenly thought that he could defend Hangzhou."

Tao Dongcheng guessed that if it weren't for this reason, Wang Zhiren wouldn't be able to change from a desire to surrender to a stubborn resistance.

"The air force is ready. Let's launch a general offensive tomorrow. I heard that the Northern First Army has already started operations. The progress on our side is slower."

Xue Guiren couldn't wait any longer.

"Well, then we will always attack tomorrow, let Wang Zhiren see our strength, sober his head."

Liu Hansan smiled.

They have made sufficient preparations before, and advanced equipment such as artillery, air force, and new-style locomotives are all in place.

Each of these things can make Hangzhou's defenders a headache.

The next day, Wu Jun's camp began operations. A cannon was pushed out and pushed to the city of Hangzhou. Wang Zhiren's scalp was numb.

Before that, Wu Jun had not put out so many cannons at once. And now, there are at least a hundred doors visually. There are thousands of soldiers in charge of firing artillery.

As for them, there are only more than forty artillery pieces.

Moreover, their cannon caliber was much smaller than Wu Jun's, and they could only fire solid rounds.

The power and effect of these forty cannons is not even as good as that of Wu Jun's twenty.

Immediately afterwards, he saw more than two dozen oversized upstairs cars.

The appearance is similar to the previous locomotive, but Wu Jun has made many changes in details and added more metal structures. Make it stronger and more difficult to destroy.

The height of these locomotives is higher than the city wall of Hangzhou. At the top of each locomotive, about 20 people can stand at the same time, and the people below can continue to climb up the ladder.

If these locomotives can smoothly lean against the city wall, the Ming Army will have more than 20 places to focus on defense.

"The enemy is about to fire, the general should go down and avoid it."

His subordinates persuaded.

Wu Jun's howitzer kills too much, and there is no safe place on the wall.

When Wang Zhiren heard the words, he didn't falter, but decisively got off the city wall, sat down with Fang Guoan and drank tea together, waiting for the end of Wu Jun's shelling.

Before long, Wu Jun’s cannons began to sound.

The volley of hundreds of cannons gave a sense of earth-shattering.

Countless shells flew towards the head of Hangzhou, and a small number of Ming soldiers on the wall shrank in the corner.

Some also covered up wooden boards and hid under them.

Others can hide, but artillery can't hide.

They fired at the artillery positions of the Wu army, trying to destroy the artillery of the Wu army.

However, before they could achieve any results, Wu Jun's artillery also turned its muzzle and aimed at them first.

The artillery of the two sides began to fire each other. No surprise, the artillery of the Ming army suffered a big loss.

Whether it is quantity or quality, or the quality of artillery, they are not opponents of the Ming army.

After a few rounds of shelling, 30 to 40% of the Ming army’s artillery died.

The remaining artillery dropped their artillery and fled to the city.

This battle can't be fought, it's all about changing lives, and it's still the kind of inability to win.

Sixty to seventy of them died, but only a dozen of them died on Wu Jun's side.

Compared with the nearly 1,000 troops, Wu Jun had a dozen dead, and the other artillerymen were indifferent and didn't panic at all.

The Ming army is different. Their artillery numbers are less than two hundred in total.

On average, one out of every three people was killed. How could the rest of the people not panic? This probability is too great.

The artillery collapsed and fled, and Fang Guoan and others did not execute those soldiers.

No way. Soldiers who can shoot artillery are hard to find. Kill those technical artillery, and the artillery will be even more unmanned.

"Leave a small number of people on it, and all the rest will come down and hide."

Fang Guoan gave an order, but he couldn't do so, so he could only evade his edge temporarily.

Anyway, Wu Junguang couldn't attack the city with artillery. In the end, he had to rely on infantry to attack.

At that time, Wu Jun's cannon would be useless.

After the Wu Jun’s artillery bombarded for a while, they stopped, and their biggest role had become a deterrent.

To say how many enemies can be killed, it is not necessarily true.

The earth-shaking shelling can create tremendous psychological pressure on the enemy, and it has already achieved results.

Afterwards, Wu Jun's infantry began to advance, and equipment such as locomotives was also advancing. The moat has been filled long ago, and they can go directly to the bottom of the city.

At the same time, sixty hydrogen balloons have also been lifted off, floating towards Hangzhou City.

These hydrogen balloons are more advanced than the last one, and some detailed structures have been optimized to make the handling more convenient and the stability better.

War is the best catalyst for science and technology. When there is such a demand on the battlefield, the development speed of these hydrogen balloons is much faster than other projects.

You can't be upset, those researchers are afraid of unreasonable military officers urging them by force.
