The battle had not yet broken into the city, and Zhirkov was drunk from behind the position.Fighting a war is about morale, again and again, again and again, and then decaying, and then exhausted.The attacks of the Cossack cavalry were thwarted one after another, and they had lost their best chance to fight.The main thing was that the attack was blocked by a gun array, and the morale of the cavalry corps was knocked out at that time.Later, the short soldiers intersected, although they fought hard with the Manchu soldiers, but it was already the end of the force, once they could not win in a short time, it would be frustrated again, and there was no morale to advance again.In Siberian winter, night always comes unusually early.In the middle of winter, it's usually less than five o'clock and the sky is already dark.The two sides fought bloodily for a day, and both reached the maximum limit of the human body, and finally all Mingjin withdrew their troops.Once the night comes, the temperature plummets, and whoever stays outside will only freeze to death.In this battle, the Cossack cavalry suffered more than 20,000 casualties, which was twice as many as yesterday.But they still didn't hurt their muscles and bones, and their soldiers and horses remained at 1120,000.Except for the north gate, which suffered heavy casualties, the other city gates were all unable to work, and they did not rush desperately.Of course, it is also because of the ice blockage.Even though sandbags were covered on the ice, some of the impact was neutralized.The Manchu soldiers suffered heavy casualties this time, and almost half of the musketeers and archers in the North Gate Gun Formation were killed or wounded.As soon as the soldiers retreated into the city, Sauron had his soldiers counted.In the four city gates, there were 10,000 standing troops and 50,000 militiamen, but now there are only more than 3,000 standing troops and more than 20,000 militiamen, and more than 30,000 people have died.Sauron's arm and Kitagami were also slashed several times, and his battle robes were stained red with blood.After the military doctor bandaged it slightly, he immediately called a meeting of the generals in the army.There was a lot of discussion in the military tent, and yesterday they sat together and talked to the generals, and now only half of them are left.Half of them were killed in the recent battle, and the remaining half were also covered with wounds."
It's all here," Sauron frowned as soon as he entered the tent, and the generals stood up and saluted with their fists folded, all nodding in disappointment."
Lord Totong, we suffered heavy casualties in today's battle.If the reinforcements don't come tomorrow, it is estimated that the city will be destroyed in the end" The right deputy commander Bu Shunda hung his head in frustration, and today's battle has consumed all the combat power in the city.The remaining more than 20,000 militiamen were not enough for Lao Maozi's cavalry, and he no longer had the confidence to continue to resist.Gao Huan, the deputy commander of the left and deputy capital, has died on the battlefield today, and this man who followed the Protector Army to the present day finally came to the end of his life.The moment the enemy's steel knife stabbed into his body, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind, how good it would be if he lived in the country now.Most of the remaining generals in the tent are timid and afraid of death, and all of them who are bold and able to fight today are killed on the battlefield After Gao Huan finished speaking, everyone nodded and acquiesced.I didn't believe that with my own men, I could block the charge of more than 100,000 enemy cavalry.Bai San was already weak and weak, and although he led the team to the battlefield, he was completely hiding around, so he was lucky to get his life.He didn't speak either, because Ma Zhe, the only person in the tent who could talk to him, was also killed on the battlefield today.Ma Zhe is a man, and when the knife is stabbed into the stomach, he still stubbornly ends up with the enemy."
It's really fucking filthy, it all cheers up Lao Tzu.People die and birds are facing the sky, but they leave a bowl-sized scar on their neck, and they are so damn afraid" Sauron saw the pessimistic and lost appearance of the generals, and the anger in his heart did not come out, and he scolded as soon as he slapped the table.The generals were all frightened and straightened their chests, and they all cheered up for a while, not daring to show the slightest bit of loss."
Lao Tzu tells you that Lao Maozi is different from Hua Xingjun.The Huaxing army will leave us a way to live, but Lao Maozi will definitely drive us to extinction.For the sake of our relatives and friends in the city, even if we die, we will hold on until the reinforcements arrive, we all understand" Sauron continued to slap the table angrily in warning, and the generals didn't dare to take a breath, and they all nodded secretly yes."
Alright, let's move on to defense.Tell me if you have any good suggestions, now we have only more than 3,000 musketeers left, and 20,000 militia left, relying on more than 23,000 people, how can we survive a day" Sauron's wounds were so excited that blood soon oozed out again.He gritted his teeth and tightened the bandage a little, not paying any attention.The generals whispered and talked a lot.There are more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, and it is not a standing army.To resist the enemy's hundreds of thousands of elite cavalry, this is simply a joke."
Bai San, what do you have in mind" Sauron didn't bother to ask these brainless guys, and looked at Bai San expectantly.In the military tent, Bai San has the lowest position, but he can always come up with strange methods, maybe he really has some ghost ideas."
Lord Dutong forgives his sins, and there is no other way for his subordinates.But tomorrow's subordinates can fight to the end, even if the last drop of blood flows, they must buy an extra minute of time for the clansmen in the city" The battle has been fought until now, and all the hole cards have already been used, and Bai San has no strategy in his stomach.Even if it is a little trick, it will not help the whole situation."
Good boy, I didn't misread you.Hear it, and don't expect a miracle to happen.We can only create miracles if we do our best," a small co-leader could say such a thing, which immediately aroused the pride in Sauron's heart."
Lord Totong, fight to the death tomorrow.I'm afraid that he will be a bird's egg, and our life will be given away" "Yes, it is a death both horizontally and vertically, and it is worth it to pull a cushion before dying"""Other generals also puffed up, how can it be worse than an assistant leader at this time."
Okay, with your words, Lao Tzu will be relieved.As long as we Manchus persist in this tone, we will not be able to die at any time" Sauron was full of pride in his heart, but at the critical time, he saw through life and death.After so many years of fighting in the army, it is the first time that I am so happy.In the past, when facing a strong enemy, I always wanted to turn around and flee.Now the brothers are united, in order to keep the lifeblood of the Manchus, even if it is worth dying.The Cossack military camp a thousand meters outside the city, the Cossack cavalry corps was not afraid of the Manchus going out of the city to sneak attack, and directly set up a military tent on the edge of the city.They wished for a sneak attack on the soldiers and horses in the city, and they also launched an attack on the city.The army's food and grass were almost cut off, and Zhirkov gave a death order to the generals, and if he couldn't capture the city again, all the generals would come to see him.The generals also mustered up their strength, and vowed to take down this city to the death.They had a new understanding of the Orientals in the city, and none of them were as contemptuous as before.Tomorrow's siege also changed tactics, gathering more than 10,000 people and changing cavalry to infantry.The first goal is to break through the city gates, and then the cavalry army will rush into the city to fight:
