Chapter 566: Siege of Guiyang! Ask for a monthly ticket!)
Li Dingguo did not seem to be in a hurry to attack the city, but surrounded Guiyang City first.
Just like the three layers inside and three layers outside, it is not as good as a living person, even a mosquito cannot fly out.
Li Dingguo is very confident in taking Guiyang.
But compared to winning Guiyang, he was more concerned about whether he could capture Wu Sangui alive.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Wu Sangui is a sinner of the Ming Dynasty and even the entire Han people.
If he hadn't opened Shanhai Pass and let the Donglu enter the pass, the Donglu would still be eating ashes in Liaodong.
Li Dingguo must make Wu Sangui pay the price for his actions.
If this person is not cut into pieces, he will be sorry for the dead Han men and soldiers.
As for tactics, there is nothing special. It is nothing more than using the advantage of the number of people to attack the city from all sides under the cover of artillery bombardment.
Of course, Wu Sangui has a large number of people.
But the defender of the city always needs to consider more than the siege.
After all, the siege only needs to conquer one place.
As long as the same guardian of the city is not protected, all the previous efforts will be wasted.
So Wu Sangui will look embarrassed, and Li Dingguo will seize one opportunity and make a big deal.
Of course, there is another important reason why Li Dingguo chose to fight head-on, that is, the gates of Guiyang City are really ruined.
This kind of repaired city wall will not only become a powder after a shot, but there is no problem in blasting a big hole.
As long as the tide is broken, Li Dingguo rushed into the city with full confidence and quickly controlled the whole city.
As soon as the matter was arranged properly, Li Dingguo ordered the attack on the city.
The cannon was shot, and the lead bullets smashed towards the city gate from all directions.
For a moment, Wu Sangui felt the wind and panic and frightened.
"Counterattack, fight back to me!"
Does Li Dingguo think he is the only one who has artillery?
Wu Sangui also has a lot of artillery, and at worst, he can just bang it, who is afraid of whom?
Under Wu Sangui's order, the gunners began to load ammunition nervously, aimed at Li Dingguo's central army and fired.
"It's not polite to come but not come."
Wu Sangui wanted to teach Li Dingguo a hard lesson and teach him how to be a human being.
However, Wu Sangui's cannons are all heavy cannons, which is relatively complicated to use. But if you really do it, you will be extremely powerful if you continue to shoot it.
After some rush, the artillery fired out and several lead bullets hit Li Ding's central army directly.
There was even a lead bullet that landed dozens of steps away from Li Dingguo.
Although the cannon fired by Wu Sangui would not explode, the huge impact force could still crush all the soldiers on a line into meat paste.
There may even be a jump that causes secondary damage.
For a time, the Ming army was surrounded by people and horses, and many soldiers died tragically in front of Li Dingguo.
Li Dingguo's face turned pale and a strange sound came from his throat.
It was a nearly roaring voice, and he felt surprisingly angry. Wu Sangui was challenging his bottom line, and he could no longer bear it!
"Back to fight back, fight back to me!"
Now Li Dingguo was completely angry. He roared hysterically, and the Ming soldiers also shared the same hatred for the enemy.
Wu Sangui thought that this would scare them away, but he was wrong. This would only inspire the Ming army's higher fighting spirit.
The two sides opened up the line and shot against each other, but Wu Sangui had a certain advantage because of his condescending power.
But Li Dingguo is not a fuel-efficient lamp either.
He knew very well that the weakest link of Wu Sangui was the city gate, so he caught the city gate and sweared to blow the city gate open.
Finally, after several rounds of gunfire, a big hole was finally blown open.
For a moment, Wu Sangui on the top of the city was stunned.
What he feared the most eventually happened. If it was not remedy, it would be possible that Guiyang City would be broken!
Hiss! Wu Sangui gasped and ordered: "Clog the broken city gate quickly, hurry up!"
No matter what method the soldiers used, Wu Sangui had to block the hole in the shortest time.
The soldiers rushed down the horse path in panic.
A lot of stone and wood are piled up near each city gate in case of emergency needs.
It came in handy at this moment.
The big hole that was blasted at the city gate requires many objects to block it, and it will be difficult to complete it all in a short while.
At this time, the Ming army had already rushed over, and the vassal soldiers were in chaos for a moment.
Seeing this, Wu Sangui quickly ordered the soldiers on the city to shoot and block the attack.
He must win time for the soldiers blocking the door as much as possible so that he can be invincible.
If the Ming army was allowed to rush into the city so easily, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The power of the arrow at this distance is no less than that of the cannon, and it can even kill individuals more accurately.
However, the Ming army's protection work was also done well, not only with armor, hat and helmet to protect the body, but also with shields and rattan cards as protection.
Although the threat of arrows is very large, it is not enough to stop the Ming army's advancement.
Although some of the Ming army fell on the charge road, most of them rushed to the city.
Now the only moat that is blocking them is the one that hinders them.
Although it is called a moat, the river water has been released before Zhao Liangdong escaped.
So the moat is dry now, and there is no difference between it and moat, it is just a wider one.
The Ming soldiers jumped into the dry moat without hesitation. They now have to grab the time and don’t care about this much.
Seeing that it was his last chance, the vassal soldiers on the top of the city began a round of shooting fiercely.
Many Ming soldiers fell into the moat, but some of them broke through the blockade of the vassal soldiers and came to the other side.
Now they no longer need to use ladders to fight for control of the city, they just need to take down the city gate that was blasted open as soon as possible.
"Run over and take down the city gate!"
Under the command of the general, ordinary Ming soldiers rushed towards the city gate without any scruples.
Of course, many of them find it difficult to see the next day's sun, but their companions can make up for the seat as soon as possible.
"Fight with them!"
Until now, both sides fight for one breath. Whoever can bite this breath can laugh to the end.
Everyone knew very well that this was a battle that could not be afforded. These vassal soldiers also used all their strength to block the Ming army.
But how could this huge hole be blocked? The Ming army with armor was astonishing as it was, and the vanguard army had already rushed to the entrance of the cave.
In desperation, the vassal soldiers had to choose to use the human sea tactics to block the enemy.
After all, they can gather in the city as soon as possible, and there is still a little advantage in terms of number of people.
The two sides started hand-to-hand combat for a moment, and the hand-to-hand combat was not exciting.
Countless soldiers fell down, and another soldier filled in.
The two sides were tug and warped back and forth, and no one could kill the opponent completely.
Wu Sangui's eyes turned red when he saw it.
Why is this first battle so difficult?
At this moment, he already regretted sowing discord between Yongli and Li Dingguo. If he did not provoke him on his own, perhaps Li Dingguo would not have come to cause trouble for him for the time being, right?
