Now the entire city of Wandan is facing the threat of war. Once the city is breached, the people inside will definitely not survive. Whether it is military officials or ordinary people, the fate is not very good.

In order to survive, and there is no need to fight bayonet with the enemy, just help load the shells, help load the musket, and then pull the trigger on the indigenous people outside the city.

This seemingly bloodless, close-range hand-to-hand combat between the two sides looks more like a game than a war!

In this war game, the indigenous people rushed up like a tide, and then they were shot by the defenders in the city, sweeping a large area, and then retreating like a tide!

In the first large-scale attack of the indigenous people today, they could not even get close to the city wall, let alone climb the city wall. Of course, these indigenous people also had a small number of musketeers and some archers.

In the first wave of attacks, these people still caused a small number of casualties to the defenders. Two soldiers and militiamen died on the spot, another two civilians died, and three other soldiers and civilians were injured!

However, they caused a total of seven casualties to the Datang defenders, and the price paid for the eight injuries was that at least 300 people fell under the cannonballs and bullets of the defenders!

The shelling of dozens of artillery pieces and the firing of hundreds of muskets was enough to kill and injure hundreds of people in a short period of time, shake the attacking force, and then trigger a major collapse.

Seeing that the natives had just rushed in for a few minutes, they ran back in a swarm, causing the leader of the pirate gang of the Fourth Fleet, who was watching the battle, and the former superintendent general nicknamed Commander He Ding to frown!

These natives are even more useless than he imagined!

According to his plan, he didn't expect these natives to do anything. As long as they rushed to consume the ammunition of the Pseudo-Tang Bandit Army, and used their corpses to cover their artillery units to advance to a distance of about 300 meters, then this was enough.

At that time, their artillerymen would carry out intensive artillery fire on the city head of the pseudo-Tang thieves, thereby suppressing the artillery strength of the pseudo-Tang thieves, and in turn covering the charging indigenous soldiers.

But what he didn't expect was that these natives retreated so quickly. This is nearly 10,000 natives.

Although it is impossible to say that everyone rushed up, um, because the place is not big enough, the first wave of the aboriginal soldiers who charged was about three or four thousand people.

But these three or four thousand people only lasted for a few minutes, and then they were defeated!

"It's all a bunch of waste, worthy of being a barbarian, and it's useless at all!" He Ding frowned and complained directly!

When He Ding was complaining, in fact, the aboriginal princes and nobles on the other side were also panicked!

It’s normal for dead people to fight. They also know that their weapons are not advanced enough. If they want to conquer this kind of fortress, they can only fill it with their lives. That’s why they agreed to He Ding’s plan before and let their soldiers attract firepower and cover. The pirate artillery came forward.

However, even if they were already conscious of becoming cannon fodder, they still did not imagine that in just a few minutes before and after the rushing troops, more than 300 people were killed and injured!

Almost = 1/10 casualties of the first attacking force!

And after paying such a heavy price, they didn't even get close to the city wall, let alone rush to the front of the city to fight.

How could this not shock them!

These Tang people, relying on guns and guns, are simply invincible!

Although these princes and nobles of the Batang Kingdom are called indigenous barbarians, they actually have a vision. They have traded with foreign merchants for a long time, and their contacts with India, West Asia and Europe are more honest than before. There are many Ming Dynasty.

They know that guns and guns are very powerful, but they don't know that these Tang people have almost piled the application of guns and guns to a peak!

Although the Portuguese in this year also use muskets, the proportion of cold weapons such as spearmen, sword and shield soldiers in the infantry unit is still more than half.

But what about Datang's army, their infantry units, with the exception of a very few assault battalions or heavy armored sword and shield soldiers specially used for assaulting the city, the other infantry units are all musketeers!

In the case of the same width, the firepower density of the Datang Army is almost five times that of the Portuguese army or other armies using arquebuses!

And there is only one reason for all this: the flintlock!

The flintlock made the Tang Army completely eliminate cold weapons such as spearmen, and the distance between the musketeers and the musketeers could almost be shoulder-to-shoulder.

After these two, even the speed and power of the flintlock gun is not much different from that of the matchlock gun, but the closeness of the firepower has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Obviously, these indigenous people are the first to experience the intensive firepower of the Tang Army!

The Datang troops in the city were at most a few hundred people plus a few hundred civilians, so how could they cause 300 casualties to their own side in just a few minutes?

They can't believe what their eyes see is real!

These native princes and nobles were dumbfounded and didn't know what to do, while He Ding was thinking about how to break the situation.

He has fought a lot with the pseudo-Tang thieves, and he naturally knows that the firearms of the pseudo-Tang thieves are sharp. Otherwise, he would not have gone to great lengths to collect the guns and guns produced by the pseudo-Tang thieves, and then equip the pirates under his hands. .

The matchlock guns used in his Fourth Fleet are all made by the Tang Dynasty, and even many parts of the artillery, and even the largest pirate ship in the fleet is also his flagship, which is the heyday of grabbing Four-five-zero merchant ships produced by the shipyard!

But he couldn't get the flintlock gun he had always wanted to get his hands on!

There is no way, the puppet Tang thief army regards the flintlock gun as a weapon of the military, prohibiting all exports, not for civilian use, and only equipping the domestic armed forces.

And no matter how awesome the pirates under He Ding are, they can't get a lot of flintlock guns on weekdays!

Of course, if he could break through Wandan City today, he would be able to obtain a large number of flintlock guns, but would he be able to break through this city like a tortoise shell?

At this moment, He Ding was deeply suspicious!

This city, I am afraid that it will not be able to conquer, and they have been dragging here for half a month, and it may be dangerous to drag it further!

Judging from his years of experience fighting against the pseudo-Tang bandit army, he must not underestimate the pseudo-Tang bandit army. At the same time, when he feels danger, he doesn't have to be reckless. The first thing to do is to run away.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to run all the way from Huguang to Sichuan, and then to Myanmar, and then when he was still a pirate, he would have been able to escape the encirclement and suppression of the Datang Navy and the Portuguese Navy all the way.

Now, he feels like he can't do anything!

An idea has already surfaced in my heart, maybe it's time to retreat!

Anyway, when the Portuguese came to persuade him to attack the city of Banten, the benefits were already taken. There were five hundred Portuguese man-made arquebuses, ten artillery pieces, and tens of thousands of cash.

Since all the benefits have been taken, there is nothing to lose if you don’t fight. As for the Portuguese saying that there are a lot of money, treasures and goods in the city, it will definitely make a lot of money if you break the city. He also believes that after all, Banten City is a big city. The most important fortress and trading city of the Tang Empire in Southeast Asia are definitely rich.

But this is not very attractive to him!

He is a pirate. If he wants money, he can just grab a shot. He doesn't have to break the city of Banten.

What he valued more was ships and weapons, especially the flintlock guns of the pseudo-Tang Dynasty. He had wanted it for many years, and he would definitely be able to obtain a large number of flintlock guns after breaking through Wandan City.

But now in this situation, the feasibility is not big!

Thinking of this, he quietly instructed his subordinates to notify his own fleet and prepare to retreat!

As for himself, he is going to wait two more days to see if there is any change in the past two days and see if the Portuguese can control the situation.

However, he just found out that night that this battle is really impossible to fight, even the Portuguese have nothing to do!

Since the attack on the East City Wall in the morning failed, the leaders of more than a dozen forces involved in the battle sat together and discussed how to fight.

But from the morning discussion to the evening, there is no reason to say it.

Because in the morning, I saw the terrifying firepower of the Datang Army, and now those indigenous people do not dare to be cannon fodder easily, and there is no indigenous people as cannon fodder, just rely on the more than 3,000 pirates, all of which are not enough to fill in. of.

That is a bastion, there is no more than seven or eight times the force, don't expect to launch an attack!

This situation also made He Ding feel bored!

He seems to have seen when he fought against the pseudo-Tang thief army in the country in the past. It was the same in those days. The adults of various armies argued with each other, and no one was willing to sacrifice himself to help others. There was no alliance, and they were finally defeated by the pseudo-Tang thieves.

In addition to the pirate gang of the Fourth Fleet under He Ding, there are three other pirate forces participating in the war in Wandan City. Otherwise, how can they afford more than 3,000 pirates.

Even those indigenous people are not actually a unified force. Although they all bear the name of the Batang Kingdom, they are actually a coalition of seven princes, nobles and lords.

The coalition of 20,000 people actually has a total of seven troops!

This is not to mention the Portuguese who is in charge of the central contact ~www.wuxiaspot.com~.

In the past, the Portuguese spent a lot of money in order to connect them. It took half a year to form a series. However, after the fight today, although the Portuguese were in command, the specific tactics were arranged. These pirates and indigenous people But he didn't listen much.

The guns of the Tang army were sharp, and the indigenous people wanted to let the pirates' artillery troops go up to fight with the Tang army first.

As for the pirates, they want the natives to rush up first to attract firepower, so that they can smoothly carry out the artillery within the range of the artillery, and then carry out the artillery suppression to cover the native infantry from attacking the city.

To put it bluntly, pirates don't want to take risks, they are only responsible for providing long-range fire support under safe conditions!

The natives thought it was acceptable before, because they didn't know that Tang Jun's firepower was so powerful, but after the first battle in the morning, they just learned how to behave well. If they go up first, they are not as cannon fodder to attract the enemy's firepower, but purely to die.

And they think that even if more than 10,000 natives are filled in, it is estimated that there will not be enough time for the artillery of the pirates to suppress the artillery of the Tang Army!

In this case, the situation is deadlocked!

When He Ding saw this situation, he immediately remembered the situation in China that year, and then that night, he just took people away!

When he sneaked away in the middle of the night, he also stole three ships from other pirates. In order to prevent those pirates from chasing him, he also burned most of the remaining ships!

His Fourth Fleet is now a pirate gang, and it is not easy to explain to the old and weak women and children in the old nest without grabbing something to go back!

Pirates have to live too!

As for the other pirates and natives outside Banten City, what would they do if they lost their ships!

Um!

It's not about him He Ding!
