I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

There were 10,000 people in charge of the tentative attack, from multiple divisions.

After all, when sieging a city, the cooperation of different arms is required.

The 10,000 people divided into three groups and launched attacks on the left, center, and right three sections of the city wall at the same time.

At the front were the flintlock troops, who had to undertake all the cover and suppression tasks. What followed were some auxiliary soldiers who were temporarily recruited. They followed behind with sandbags filling the moat and pushing various siege equipment.

Most of these people came from soldiers who surrendered and recruited people nearby. It would definitely be useless to count on them to attack the city. They had neither organization nor discipline.

Their job was to fill in some moats and push the siege machines under the city.

The remaining task of siege is to hand over to the regular main force of the Wu army, the commando team composed of death squads and grenadiers.

Among these troops, there are still beheading squads and sniper companies that have always been free to move.

These are Wu Jun's more mature siege routines, and they have been tried and tested.

"Return the artillery, fire the cannon."

As the siege troops of the Wu army began to enter the range, the artillery of the Qing army hurriedly returned to their posts and began to fire.

With the sound of the cannons of the Qing army, some black dots fell to the phalanx of the soldiers of the Wu army.

A shell fell into the phalanx, hit a soldier and continued to roll forward without stopping. Any soldier who was hit by the big iron ball was either killed or seriously injured.

Even when it seemed like it was about to stop at the last moment, the big iron ball rubbed against a soldier's calf, and the soldier's leg bone was immediately fractured.

"Changing sideways."

Wu Jun suffered a round of shelling and immediately changed his formation to reduce losses.

At the same time, the artillery of the Wu army immediately concentrated their firepower on the artillery positions of the Qing army to clear and suppress it.

The Qing army's artillery positions, which were taken care of, were quickly hit hard, and several artillery units were reimbursed at one time.

The rest of the artillerymen had trembling legs and dripping orange urine.

The rest of the people actually knew very well in their hearts that as long as they continued to stay in this artillery position, death was only a matter of time.

They knew that it was a mortal situation, but they had no choice, and the supervisor team next to them was watching over them all the time.

Technical arms are not so good.

The artillery on both sides roared, and the Wu army under the city continued to advance.

As the long-range troops on both sides entered their respective ranges, the Qing troops on the city wall began to bend their bows and shoot arrows, and the arquebusier troops also began to shoot.

This brought great trouble to the Wu army, because the Qing army had a very large number of archers.

Horse archery is the housekeeping skill of the Eight Banners soldiers, and the proportion of archers among its soldiers is very large.

The rain of arrows fell into the Wu army's formation, and many soldiers fell down with arrows.

In order to be flexible and light, Wu Jun's flintlock troops were only equipped with an iron helmet, and other body parts had no protection.

Of course, this is also a choice that has been verified in actual combat. It is easier to win the battle without wearing armor than wearing armor.

The medical team lifted the wounded soldiers down, and the reserve team picked up their equipment and joined the formation to maintain the density of firepower.

"Array, salvo."

Wu Jun's flintlock troops also stopped and fired salvos at the city head.

With a burst of gunshots, there was an extra puff of white smoke on the battlefield.

On the top of the Qing army, a large number of soldiers fell. Some fell on the city wall, and some fell directly under the city.

Thousands of people volleyed, its power is quite terrifying.

"It's really an elite team. In the face of the arrow rain, there is no one to avoid. It seems that they are all people who are not afraid of death."

Looking at Wu Jun's performance, Luc Dehun couldn't help but sigh.

The general army must have a shield when facing the rain of arrows, otherwise it will definitely flee in all directions. To be able to calmly face the shooting of the arrow rain, this is quite incredible in Luck Dehun's view.

Of course he didn't know that the army training manual formulated by Wu Changqing was all trained according to the standards of the line infantry who were lined up to be shot.

Soldiers who are lined up to be shot must have the mental quality to remain in formation in the face of being shot.

Of course, Wu Jun's ability to achieve this level has a lot to do with their logistical support.

In order to save more wounded soldiers, Wu Changqing specially spent resources to exchange a batch of sulfanilamide for the army to use.

The bactericidal effect of sulfonamide is much worse than that of penicillin, but it is cheaper. Moreover, this poor effect is compared with penicillin, and compared with any bactericidal drugs of the same period, sulfanilamide is the existence of hanging everything.

In this era, no one knows the existence of bacteria, and there is almost no way to prevent wound infection and festering, except to use red-hot iron to scald.

This treatment method is both painful and ineffective.

And Wu Jun relies on the magic medicine of sulfanilamide, most of the traumatized soldiers can be cured without infection.

The biggest cause of death among wounded soldiers is wound infection. After sulfonamides, the death rate of Wu Jun's wounded soldiers dropped sharply.

Without the threat of death, Wu Jun soldiers were more daring in battle and did not have to worry about being injured.

In the past, getting hurt meant losing your life, but now it's just a little pain.

For soldiers, this pain is pediatrics.

It is precisely because of his trust in his own military doctors that Wu Jun was able to remain calm in the face of arrow rain.

Except for a few who were shot to the heart and neck

Soldiers in deadly places like the subhead, and most of the other wounded soldiers, were able to survive.

These circumstances, Lu Ke Dehun is obviously not clear, he can only understand some of Wu Jun's superficial situation through spies for the time being. Such as weapons and equipment, such as unique divisions.

In addition, Le Kedehun didn't know much about Wu Jun, and he didn't know the root cause of Wu Jun's strength, so he could only simply attribute it to weapons.

After a round of confrontation, there were some riots on the side of the Qing army. The casualty rate was too high, and the people in the front almost fell by one third in one go.

Although among these people, only a minority of them died immediately.

However, everyone understands that people who are shot have little chance of surviving.

"Keep shooting arrows."

The general of the Qing army shouted, but the next moment, a blood flower burst out on his head.

Although he wears the same clothes as ordinary soldiers, for experienced veterans, as long as they look carefully, they can actually distinguish officers from soldiers.

The method is also very simple. The other soldiers are preparing to bow and shoot arrows, and this person is constantly observing the city. Such an obvious difference can basically be concluded that it is an officer.

The officer's death in battle made those soldiers stunned again.

However, there were more than one officer in the Qing army. This section of the city wall was in charge of one general and five assistant leaders.

The one who was shot just now was just a sergeant. When the other sergeants saw that man died in battle, they immediately took over those soldiers.

Of course, even if he took over, Wu Jun's shot just now had some impact on the Qing army.

The second round of shooting ended, and both sides fell a large number of people.

The Wu army's logistical forces were constantly carrying the wounded down, and the Qing army on the city wall was also carrying away the wounded. If these people are not carried away, their constant screams will have a great impact on the morale of other soldiers.

Watching the wounded soldiers who were constantly being lifted from the top of the city were thrown into the corner and then ignored, the soldiers behind the city wall were shaking in their legs.

It only took so long to fight, and the casualties were so heavy.

Sooner or later, they have to go to the defense, looking at the wounded soldiers who were abandoned, they seemed to see their end in the future.
