The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 752

The battle was fierce, but Wu Sangui's mind was not on the siege battle.

Because he was sure that Hami City was vulnerable to the Guan Ning Army.

There will be no surprises in this battle!
The question he is thinking about now is the next move of Guan Ning's army if they continue to march westward.

If the Western Regions go further west, where should Da Zhou settle down?
Where are there enough resources to support hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Da Zhou?

Wu Sangui showed deep thought, worried about this.

Suddenly, Wu Sangui's expression changed, and he remembered something.

Maybe they can go to Tianzhu to send warmth to the people of Tianzhu.

As we all know, Tianzhu has always been quite friendly to invaders!

Well, there is basically no successful case of resisting foreign invasion. As long as it is an invader, anyone can go up and kick him. Isn't this considered friendly?

……

Just when Wu Sangui was distracted, the battle had reached a fever pitch.

A Guan Ning army in heavy armor, carrying a shield and holding a long knife, charged towards Hami City.

They want to use their heavy armor to open the attack channel for their siege troops!

Zhao Xi raised the shield above his head, covered his face with the shield, and rushed forward with his head buried.

collapse!Bumble!

From time to time, there was the sound of bowstring trembling in my ears.

Tuk Tuk!Benedict!

The sound of arrows hitting the shield kept ringing.

From time to time, he could feel the pain caused by the arrow hitting the heavy armor.

The soldiers of the Zhungeer Department kept bending their bows and setting arrows, and the arrows fell like rain, but they could not stop their offensive.

More arrows shot at Zhao Xi's body, but they couldn't penetrate his heavy armor.

Arrows were hung on the armor one after another. Zhao Xi and other Zhongbu in Guan Ning's army were full of arrows. From a distance, they looked like hedgehogs.

But the sense of oppression these heavy armored soldiers can bring is getting stronger and stronger.

"kill!"

"Fall!"

"..."

Zhao Xi kept charging forward, and as the ladder car was put on the city wall, Zhao Xi also started to ascend the city.

At this time, the threat they have to face is no longer just arrows with limited lethality!

It's rolling logs and rocks falling like rain!
Even if Zhao Xi and the others were wearing heavy armor, they would hardly have any protective effect in front of the rolling logs and rocks carrying terrifying kinetic energy.

This is the principle that blunt weapons can break armor!
People are constantly being smashed, their heads are bleeding, and their brains are bursting!

Zhao Xi watched helplessly as a veteran soldier in front of him was hit on the head by a stone, instantly fell to the ground and convulsed, and died miserably on the spot.

Although there was fear in his heart, Zhao Xi didn't dare to retreat.

Because he knew that Yi Ding, who was in charge of the battle, was behind him and others, and if he retreated, he would definitely die.

There is still a way to go!

There is no doubt that you will die if you retreat!

Zhao Xi knew how to choose.

"kill!"

"Break the formation!"

"Long live Great Zhou, long live King Anxi!"

"..."

Amidst bursts of shouts, Zhao Xi held up his shield and began to climb the ladder.

There was a sound of breaking through the air, and a log full of barbs was thrown towards him.

Zhao Xi's reaction was very quick, he suddenly lowered his body and raised his shield.

The log was blocked by the shield in his hand, and flew over, smashing into the crowd behind him.

Zhao Xi looked back subconsciously, and saw that behind him, three or five people had been knocked down by the barbed log.

The heavy armor on their bodies blocked the damage from the barbs, but it couldn't block the kinetic energy of the falling log.

Three or five people were smashed to pieces, lying on the ground, howling and screaming.

Zhao Xi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, feeling his throat was dry.

The arm he was holding up the shield seemed to have been fractured, and the pain continued to come, and he couldn't lift his arm at all.

However, under the push of Pao Ze behind him, he couldn't retreat at all, he could only keep moving forward.

……

Facing Hami City, the Guan Ning Army's offensive was like a wave, which can be described as quite fierce!
Countless sergeants rushed towards the top of the city!

A heavily armored soldier is desperately moving forward!

The artillery purchased by the Guan Ning Army from Daming was still roaring, and the shells kept hitting the city wall or falling into the city.

One after another, the bombs fell into the crowd continuously, and then exploded.

Gunpowder smoke mixed with flames raged, and the fragments, driven by the shock wave, easily took away lives.

Some Jungar soldiers whose bodies were torn apart by the fragments lay on the ground, clutching their wounds, and wailing and screaming extremely shrillly.

Those who have not died for a while must wait for the final arrival of death in pain and despair.

The archers and musketeers of the Guanning Army continued to project firepower towards the city of Hami, suppressing the counterattack of the soldiers of the Zhungeer Ministry.

boom!Boom!bang bang bang!

The sound of gunfire continued, and Guan Ning's army aimed at the top of the city and fired rounds of firepower.

In order to pursue sufficient firepower density, when the musketeers of the Guan Ning Army reloaded their muskets, they did not load a single slug.

Instead, it was loaded with shotguns!
A few small pellets are loaded first, and then a larger slug is loaded to fill the chamber and then compacted with a cleaning rod.

Then it's time to pull the trigger!

With those small shotguns, the fire density of the Guanning army's musket salvo is very high.

Soldiers from the Zhungeer Department were constantly hit by shotguns, falling to the ground and howling miserably.

The killing effect of shotguns on targets wearing armor is not obvious, but for enemies lacking armor like the Zhungeer Ministry, the killing effect of muskets shooting shotguns is better than that of shooting slugs.

Not only are muskets exploding on the battlefield, but also a large number of arrows are constantly flying between the two sides!
A dense rain of arrows soared into the sky, shooting towards the opponent continuously.

As time passed, gradually Guan Ning's heavy steps came to the top of the city.

Relying on their heavy armor, those heavy steps were invulnerable, and swung their knives into the crowd.

Slashing with a long knife, slashing with one's own body, almost no one can stop it!
This is the terrible thing about Chongbu!
If it was a cavalry battle, Zhungeer's soldiers might still be able to support them a couple of times.

After all, they are fine riders who grew up on horseback, and they all have a lot of experience in riding and fighting.

But when it comes to the starting battle, when it comes to the offense and defense of the fortress, ten soldiers from the Zhungeer Department will not be an opponent of the Guanning Army.

Even if you don't talk about the gap in armament between the two sides, just the experience of war is not on the same level!

"kill!"

"Break the formation!"

A soldier named Guan Ning stepped up to the top of the city with heavy steps, swung his sword and raised his shield continuously, opening up the situation at the top of the city.

More and more heavy steps to the city are completed!
And began to prepare to form an array and rush forward, to enter the city of Hami.

"kill!"

Soldiers from both sides fought in a group at the head of the city.

But it is very obvious that the Guan Ning army is suppressing the soldiers of the Zhungeer Department throughout the fight.

The soldiers of the Zhungeer Department slashed at the soldiers of Guan Ning with their knives, without breaking their armor at all.

However, the soldiers of Guan Ning slashed backhand, and the Zhungeer soldiers who didn't even have armor at all were either killed or maimed.

This is the importance of armor in a cold weapon war!
This is why the ancient dynasties banned armor but not knives!

A soldier with armor may not be able to defeat ten soldiers without armor.

But a hundred armored soldiers can definitely beat a thousand unarmored soldiers.

The battle situation at the head of Hami City gradually became clear, and the soldiers of the Zhungeer Department were constantly compressed in their living space.

With a creak, the gate of Hami City was opened from the inside by soldiers of the Guan Ning Army!
In the next moment, groups of Guan Ning troops rushed into the city of Hami with heavy steps, shouting and killing.

They cut at anyone they saw, constantly breaking through the defense line of Zhungeer's soldiers.

……

Seng Ge was wearing a suit of armor that clearly had the style of the Western Regions, and there was a layer of chain mail inside the armor.

But this heavy armor can't bring him enough sense of security!

Listening to the deafening roar outside the city, Seng Ge's face seemed to be full of panic.

"What's going on? What's going on now?"

Seng Ge kept asking questions.

A group of nobles from the Zhungeer tribe around him almost had the same expression as him, all of them showed fear.

"No... not good!"

"The east gate city is broken, Zhou Jun... Zhou Jun has entered the city!"

At this moment, a messenger stumbled towards Sengge and reported the bad news to Sengge.

Hearing this, Seng Ge suddenly fell into a panic, and his body almost collapsed on the ground when his body softened.

The chaos outside became more and more serious, and the riots continued to spread towards the place where Sang Ge was.

Seng Ge took a deep breath, struggled to get up from the ground, said with wide eyes and gritted teeth.

"Pass the order down, fear Xue's army and prepare for battle!"

"Follow me to kill the enemy!"

Seng Ge was unwilling to be captured without a fight, and was going to fight with his own guards.

Since Genghis Khan founded the Kexue Army, almost every imperial guard unit that claims to be an orthodox Mongolian regime has continued to use the name of the Kexue Army.

Encouraged by Seng Ge, groups of elite Zhungeer troops in leather armor greeted the Guanning Army entering the city.

……

The battle in the city was fierce, Wu Yingqi pulled his horse back to Wu Sangui, and said to his father.

"Father, now that the overall situation in Hami has been settled, it is only a matter of time before the Zhungeer tribe falls."

"Why don't you send a new army into the city to test the strength of the new army?"

The new army that Wu Yingqi mentioned refers to the army under the Guanning Army that used Ming's ordnance.

This army used the military equipment of the Ming Dynasty and imitated the tactics of the Ming army for training. It was Wu Sangui's experiment in the military innovation of the Guanning Army.

However, whether military innovation is feasible or not, and the combat effectiveness of this new army is still unknown.

But now that the overall situation in Hami City has been decided, all that remains is finishing work, so Wu Yingqi wants to mobilize new troops into the city to conduct actual combat tests.

Wu Sangui didn't object when he heard the words, he was also curious about the combat effectiveness of the new army.

So, he just nodded slightly and said.

"Ying Qi, you can figure it out!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Yingqi clasped his fists and retreated.

Then, the new army under Guan Ning's army was transferred into the city of Hami by him.

The Guan Ning new army marched neatly, carrying muskets, and entered the city of Hami aggressively.

Their array is quite neat, and as the chant moves forward, it feels full of oppression.

If it wasn't for the banner of the Guan Ning Army, some people would believe that they were the Ming Army.

The new army of the Guan Ning Army now looks like a copy of the Ming Army!

Seng Ge appeared in the city of Hami with his Qixue army, and bumped into the new army of Guan Ning army head-on.

Sengge shouted loudly when he saw the enemy coming.

"Follow me to kill the enemy!"

While speaking, he took the lead and galloped towards the formation of Guan Ning's army.

He clenched the saber in his hand, ready to be stained with blood at any time.

Guan Ning's army didn't panic when they saw the enemy coming.

Those who can be selected into the new army are basically veterans of the Guanning Army.

These people are all experienced in warfare, and they don't feel nervous when they see the enemy riding their horses like recruits.

"Everyone has it, ready to fight, gun on the shoulder!"

With a loud shout, the Guan Ning soldiers in the front row raised their guns and got ready for battle.

The muzzles of the black holes are densely arranged, pointing straight ahead.

With the sound of the trumpet, they continued to move forward.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

"..."

In the sound of killing, the distance between the two sides is getting closer.

When the distance between the two sides was less than [-] meters, the grassroots officer of the Guan Ning Army shouted loudly.

"Everyone has it, aim!"

"Three salvos!"

"..."

In the next instant, the sound of musket salvo resounded throughout the battlefield.

boom!Boom!bang bang bang!

Fierce gunshots rang out, and bullets spewed out from the muzzle of the gun, wrapped in gunpowder smoke and flames, forming a barrage of bullets and shooting towards the front.

The first row of soldiers completed the salvo, turned around and retreated to reload, and the second row of soldiers quickly stepped forward.

Then pull the trigger!

Immediately afterwards, the second row of soldiers retreated, and the third row of soldiers stepped forward to shoot.

Intensive gunfire resounded throughout the battlefield!
The Zhungeer cavalry who rushed forward were instantly covered by the dense barrage.

Seng Ge watched helplessly as a guard beside him was hit by a projectile, and blood burst out of his chest.

The horse under his crotch was also broken by the bullet, hissed in pain, and then fell to the ground.

Under the terrible inertia, the horse's head was directly broken off.

The man was also thrown from the horse's back, and died immediately.

However, before Seng Ge could be startled, he felt his eyes go dark, and a projectile was coming towards him.

In the next moment, Seng Ge only felt a pain in his head and completely lost consciousness.

From the perspective behind Sengge, just now, a projectile hit Sengge's head, and Sengge's head exploded instantly like a rotten watermelon.

A lot of brains, mixed with blood, sprayed everywhere!
After the three rounds of volleys from the Guanning Army were completed, the charge of the Zhungeer cavalry in front of them was contained.

The not-so-broad streets were filled with corpses.

The smell of blood and gunpowder smoke mixed together and dispersed with the wind.

The entire street was littered with corpses, creating a scene like Shura's hell.

However, after completing three rounds of volleys, Guan Ning's army did not stop advancing and continued to move forward.

While reloading the muskets in their hands, they stepped forward.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

"..."

The deafening shouts of killing continued to sound, and the sense of oppression brought to the enemy became stronger and stronger.
