On the third day, the Japanese army launched another attack on Ishimi Fortress.
The Japanese army's tactic was to rush towards the city wall with a large group of people in a sparse formation!
There were no heavy weapons, no catapults, no ladders, rushing cars, etc.... They seemed to be unable to use it at this time because they didn't even touch the city wall after rushing for two days.
There were endless noises of shouting and killing outside. From time to time, the roar of cannons came from Yu Liang's head, and the soil was shaken and fell down from his head!
In this Tibetan military cave, which was like a cave, the sound of gongs and cannons was dull and deafening, making it very uncomfortable to stay here.
However, Yu Liang was fine. The northwest wind blew from the sea, and the air-ventilated smoke in the cave dissipated very quickly. The brothers in the east were probably even more uncomfortable. Although the cave was full of holes leading to the outer wall, smoke inevitably accumulated inside it when there was no wind.
The Zangbing Cave is a hole dug along a thick solid wall, supported by thick wooden beams, and the inside is connected; there are many passages leading to the exterior wall, and the marbles of the nun at the entrance of the exterior wall, which only allows three people to stand and fire, and one hole is shaped like a trumpet.
A wooden beam above the entrance was built with something like the eaves, covered with felt and mud.
Yu Liang was responsible for guarding five holes: the entire corner wall and a hole in the arc-shaped city wall on the front.
A team of thirty people divided into two rounds of volleys (insufficient troops).
The firearms were fired at a slower speed, but fortunately, it was not only the defenders who were firing on one side, but the defenders on the walls on the other side were also firing the Japanese army diagonally, forming cross-fire.
Today, the Japanese army's attack became even more crazy, and they had just repelled a surging charge.Before everyone could take a break, Yu Liang heard the shouts outside.
Onboard!On-board... When Yu Liang heard the sound, he bowed and saw it out of the mercerated mouth, and his scalp suddenly felt numb.
Outside the floating smoke, a large number of infantry and cavalry rushed upwards.
Damn, this scene is so absurd!
If it weren't for experiencing such scenes many times within three days, Yu Liang had the illusion that he was about to be finished when he saw so many people coming up!
Prepare!He shouted, blew the whistle hanging on his chest into his mouth.
Soon, the sound of gongs on the wall above the head sounded loudly.Bang bang bang bang... The muskets from the hidden soldiers' cave on the entire wall immediately opened fire.
The moment the fire was opened, the entrance of the cave was filled with white smoke and nothing could be seen.After a while, when the wind blew, he could see many Japanese outside struggling and screaming on the ground, and some people digging into the ditch with shovels.
There were crackling sounds of gunfires coming from the wall to the west. Many Japanese soldiers next to the ditch fell down. One of them had a shovel and fell into the ditch. No one saved him. The people behind him took the shovel and dug soil on the heads of the wounded soldiers who were still struggling in the mud!
Fifty or sixty steps away, the cavalry riding horses pulled their bows and shot arrows.Wow, swow,... Several arrows flew in from the entrance of the cave, and the Japanese cavalry shot very accurately!
bite!Zhang Dalang, who was busy loading, paused in his hand, was stunned for a moment, reached out and touched his helmet, and he immediately scolded, "Fuck!"Fortunately, I wore an iron hat!
After several volleys, the enemy soldiers suffered heavy casualties and were defeated again.Yu Liang had never seen such a scene before, and the bodies behind the ditch had already accumulated!
At this moment, footsteps came from the passage behind, and a military general who was not aware of shouted: Where is General Yu Shi?
Yu Liang replied: Here is here!
The general bent over and came in from the passage, clasped his fists and said: I, Naidong Island, commanded the tenth general of the second team of the third capital, Li Youde, and was ordered by the military command of the military office to reinforce Yu Shishi. These five holes were still led by Yu Shishishi.
Yu Liang was a little puzzled and first put his fists back.
After seeing the ceremony, Li Youde glanced outside from the chassis and said: The other direction is feint attack, only the enemy soldiers on your side are very fierce. Commander Zhang then drew troops to reinforce.
Yu Liang suddenly said: So that's it.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard another on-board shouting outside!Yu Liang said: This is the first time I have seen such a war... Everyone is ready!
Zhao Youde also quickly called his people to be stationed in the nearby five holes, and the troops in this area increased to 60.
Boom boom boom... The sound of cannons trembled, and Zhao Youde looked up and then said: What General Yu Shi said is very true, if our Xu army wants to fight like this, the general has long been chopped off by the head!It's no different from dying.
The outer ditch has basically been filled up and can be surpassed.Many Japanese infantry and cavalry crossed through the mud, nearly thirty or forty steps... and then continued to fill in ditches and shoot arrows.
The three trenches outside Shijian Fort are all within the range of muskets, in order to block the enemy's rush and within the firepower coverage!
Four-wheeled volleys fired alternately, and the firearms fired more quickly. There were two corner walls and a curved wall on the front line. The crackling sound almost stopped, covering the enemy soldiers within thirty or forty steps on three sides.
The noisy screams seemed to be right under the nose. The closer the Japanese army approached the fortress, the narrower the front line, and the crowd became very dense. Every round of gunfire, a large number of people fell to the ground.
They were like crazy, and they still rushed towards the second ditch.
At this moment, suddenly, boom boom... With several cannons, the terrifying black ball flew down from the corner walls at a negative elevation angle, bounced in the crowd. Suddenly, a group of people seemed to explode with boiling water, screaming everywhere, war horses roared everywhere, and many people were squeezed into the ditch.
The Japanese army finally retreated, and the one who came back turned around and ran away.
After the tide of people left, the smoke of gunpowder gradually became thinner, and the castle was terrible, with corpses everywhere, and some people cried and struggled in a pool of blood, and the flags and weapons were thrown into a mess.
The soldiers of Xu Jun in the hole in the wall looked at each other and could no longer speak.
But no one will be lenient... If so many people rushed to the wall, everyone would die!
No matter how close combat can be fought, it cannot beat many people.
The battlefield stopped for a long time, and the Japanese army finally stopped attacking.
The arrow tower in the distance was faintly looking at it, and Xu Jun was completely unwilling to leave the fortress at all... There were only a few hundred people in total, and they went out to seek death.
The two sides have been in a stalemate on the battlefield for a long time.
It took a long time since the Japanese army was moved, so everyone sat down on the spot. The soldiers took off the cowhide water bags from their belts and drank water silently one by one.
Yu Liang said: I don’t know what the people of Dongdao will do next.
Li Youdedao: It’s up to them, it’s not that easy to capture this fortress anyway.
Someone next to him hummed: I've been killing enough money these days, and at least thousands of people have died in the enemy's soldiers.
Li Youde said seriously: It is hard to reason that the Japanese killed the Zhang family and besieged our imperial guards brothers at the sea. Now they are coming to die again!If they didn't give a look, they thought they were even more awesome than the Liao army.
Yu Liang didn't answer the conversation, sat on the edge of the earthen wall, letting out a long sigh, his ears buzzing, and his mind was in a daze.I never thought I would become like this...
Just then, I suddenly heard the voice: Commander Zhang.Meet Commander Zhang...
Yu Liang and others quickly stood up and saw Zhang Jiankui, a bearded man, come in with his back.Everyone held their fists and saluted.
Zhang Jiankui said directly: Brothers who serve the country will definitely receive a reward!I will assure you that as long as you go back alive, you will have all the mansions, good fields, and beautiful concubines!
Everyone became a lot of energy after hearing this, especially Yu Liang's subordinates, but not as wealthy as the Imperial Army soldiers, but this time, all the troops who formed the command of Dongdao, the Imperial Army and the Guard Army also had the same military achievements, so there was no difference in rewards!
Zhang Jiankui also emphasized: Dongdao commands more than 500 people, but Emperor Daxu personally mobilized them. Don’t worry, as long as we maintain the face of the official family and the prestige of the country, this reward will be different from the past.
A civil servant next to him echoed: Brothers, just look at the equipment of Shijian Castle, more than 500 people equipped with more than 40 bronze cannons, and the materials from various warehouses were transported from thousands of miles away, so we can see that this place is highly valued by the imperial court.
The two sang and reconciled.
The soldiers, regardless of their fatigue, were all excited. Except for Yu Liang's wealthy family, all the soldiers were from poor backgrounds. Changing their destiny was definitely a chance for several generations to have!
Zhang Jiankui's eyes swept across the faces of the soldiers one by one, and he was very satisfied and said: Bear the Shijian Fort to the death, the reinforcements of the Dragon Army will arrive soon!
Yu Liang deserved to read more poems and books. Everyone dared not say anything in front of the commander, but he seized the opportunity at the right time and said generously: The last general and his subordinates and brothers swear to live and die together in Shijianbao!
well!Zhang Jiankui reached out and slapped Yu Liang on the shoulder, then left the hole in the wall.
There was no war in the morning. Everyone took out the wheat cakes from the grain bags in the earthen cave, ate lunch with cold boiled water, and then guarded until You hour in the afternoon.
There was a sound of drums at the hour of You, and the other ten generals came to the hole in the wall very on time.Yu Liang prepared the order flag, rectified the soldiers, handed over defense with the generals who came, and then took everyone out of the cave.
When people came out of the hole in the wall, they were like beggars, their heads and faces were all black, the gunpowder was smoked and their bodies were covered with soil.
Only Liang Wu's plate armor and helmet made everyone look like that.
The Japanese army's tactic was to rush towards the city wall with a large group of people in a sparse formation!
There were no heavy weapons, no catapults, no ladders, rushing cars, etc.... They seemed to be unable to use it at this time because they didn't even touch the city wall after rushing for two days.
