Hilgen and Zuzerun did not expect that they sent thousands of troops to attack a village with a maximum size of thousands of people. They fought for an hour, but they still failed to get in!

"If there is a cannon in the east, it won't be changed, so I won't change the place!" Hilgen was furious.

"Master, there are spear-armored soldiers in the village. Even if there are no cannons, they can't rush up. They have to build some ladders and rush to the car." Niu Lu'er was really frightened and sweating like rain. What he dared not say was that the two tiger squat cannons in the village were carried away. Even if they were attacking, they could not escape the fire of the tiger squat cannons.

"All be beaten!" Hirgen was furious and turned to Zu Zerun and said, "General Zu, the Han army still needs to work harder. As long as we break through the wall of the village, it depends on the strength of my Zhushenjia soldiers!"

——After breaking the wall, there is a group of sheep inside. It depends on your strength?

Zu Zerun was displeased, nodded with a gloomy face, and said, "I will send another 300 people, but I don't believe I can't capture a small village!"

The registered population of Pangjiazhuang is 836. This is a standard new village on the North China Plain after the gathering of villages and villages. The village walls are made of civil and wooden materials and have obvious inward arcs. The residential houses in the village are planned horizontally and vertically, like square tofu blocks.

Although there were only fifty local tycoons trained, in front of the enemy, all the strong men could wear armor and guns and guard the walls. Even women, children, elderly and weak helped transport the wounded, boil water and make rice, guard food and warehouses. Those half-aged and old men had learned simple formation arrangements in physical education classes in the village, and were excited to form a square array, yelling from time to time to be brave.

"Reinforcements are here!" The person with good eyes soon discovered the military dust raised in the south and the red flag of the Ming Dynasty fluttering in the wind.

The Pioneer Division of the 3rd Headquarters of the 1st Guard Division, 2nd Battalion, was in place a quarter of an hour ago, sent a horse to find out the enemy situation, conducted a short rest, and immediately started fighting.

This vanguard department is a phalanx department, with most of the soldiers being recruits, who set foot on the battlefield for the first time under the leadership of veterans. In this state, it is inevitable that they will be nervous, but when they see that the Donglu team is not in a formation, their morale will suddenly rise.

"Pre-~" The general manager, who was carrying the rank of major, gave a loud call.

The spear was like a forest and raised it neatly.

Niu Luezhen, who was commanding the attack on the village, suddenly felt nervous and quickly ordered the armored soldiers to line up and take the enemy to fight.

"Preparation!" He finished the long preparation sound. The upright spear was instantly lowered, the square formation dispersed in an orderly manner, and the sharp spear head poked out from the side of the comrades in front. He was ready to catch the enemy.

The Donglu Armored Soldiers rushed towards the slowly advancing square formation, and they soon saw a team of cavalry going around from behind the square formation to the flank.

Just looking at the horses, you will know that these cavalry cannot fight against Manchu vest soldiers. However, just when the enemy soldiers were despised, the cavalry had surpassed its spear formation, jumped off its mount, and set up a tiger squat cannon in front of the formation.

These specially trained gunners were quick to move. In a group of three, the array of five tiger squat cannons had been completed in an instant. After quickly calculating the distance and elevation angle, the tiger squat cannons fired one after another, and none of the Donglu soldiers who rushed into twenty steps survived.

"Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!"

The Ming army called the tiger forward, and at the moment of receiving the enemy, they defeated the Donglu armored soldiers, which had only short soldiers.

Niu Luezhen quickly called his men to retreat and swept past the slow-moving spear formation. He was frightened and sweated in a cold sweat.

After the Pioneer Division, other departments and bureaus at the 3000th headquarters also moved in place, both in quantity and quality, which exceeded the attack on the Donglu. Because the artillery of the battalion was still on the way, the artillery that arrived first entered the city and took over the village defense using the Type 17 artillery. Under the tutelage of professional gunners, this artillery showed great power and the artillery made the Donglu tremble.

Hilgen launched the first tentative attack at Mitsui in the morning, but who knew that he would be beaten up after a try. He insisted on pulling out this village that was overestimating his abilities. As a result, by noon, the Ming army not only came reinforcements, but also a large group of reinforcements.

Hirgen and Zu Zerun finally couldn't sit still and led their troops to the front line in person. What they saw was the siege of the city that was defeated and fled. Even the sword of the supervising team could not stop them. Usually, in this case, the enemy cavalry could charge and win the victory.

It’s a pity that qualified war horses are too rare. The cavalry battalion can only serve as a strategic reserve team and it is impossible to invest in this level of battlefield.

The First Guard Division had only horse soldiers, and trained the horse-riding soldiers into musketeers and gunners. They rushed to the front of the formation as fast as possible and cooperated with the phalanx troops to attack.

"This village is not in the place where the capital is worthy. Why did the Ming army pay so much attention?" Zu Zerun couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Hilgen was helpless, and the Manchus siege five-piece set: chiseling the city, attacking forcefully, siege, and artillery.

The villages have good defense, but they don’t have any siege equipment. If they are digging the city, they will be half the result with twice the effort and are thankless.

If you siege, you must have more people than others. The so-called military strategy: attack it by five, and encircle it by ten. Even if you don’t have ten times more, you must have at least three times the strength. Now there are at least more than one thousand reinforcements in the Ming army, which seems to be increasing. The so-called siege is just a joke.

As for the use of the room, let alone, who would put spies in an inconspicuous village?

"Have General Zu not brought artillery out?" asked Hilgen.

Zu Zerun was speechless. The Han army flag was indeed a heavy firepower force, and it can even be said to be born because of artillery. But who would march with these big guys who could often reach thousands of pounds? Especially today's battles, even capturing Anping County, were all for the army to test the virtual and the real, and if one hit, it would go away. It emphasized the maneuverability and flexibility, to explore the virtual and real enemy without being touched by the enemy's pulse, and of course, it would not take the cannon out.

"It's better to withdraw the troops first and try a different place." Zu Zerun said.

"If you can't even defeat a small village, how can I be seen with the face of Zhu Shen Warriors!" Hilgen gritted his teeth and said, "At present, you and I are the only one who work together to defeat this Ming army, otherwise how can you explain to the masters!"

Zu Zerun thought that there were nearly a hundred casualties reported below. If he couldn't even catch a village, it would be difficult to explain.

I remember that at the hands of Taizu Taizong, there were hundreds or thousands of people who died in Zhushen’s war, as long as they could win. The battles in the past decade have been too smooth, and there is almost no resistance from the Ming army to form a system, and gradually developed a delicate character. When entering the pass, Manchu’s life seemed to be even more precious, and more than a dozen people died were crying all over the city.

Zu Zerun thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud. He was not afraid of Hirgen, but was afraid that the people who had died of relatives went crazy.

"General Zu, we have to change our fighting style." Hilgen slowed down: "You have many arms, so you can fight them both east and west. I personally lead the troops to attack from the north to drill the city."

"There is a river to the north." Zu Zerun reminded.

There is a newly dug canal to the north of Pangjiazhuang. It was not to stop the enemy, but it was used purely for farmland to divert water. However, the digging of this canal was a little wider, which did have an impact on the attack. This was also because the Qing soldiers had walked around the north wall and walked from the east.

Hirgen didn't care about this. For the Manchus, Baoyi Aha was used to do this kind of work of filling trenches, and he did not expect them to be able to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions. Even if the village fires fire, it doesn't matter if Aha dies.

"It's also necessary to make some people out to build some rushers and ladders," said Hilgen. "The ladders don't have to be too long, and this wall looks less than two feet long."

Zu Zerun ignored him and suddenly pointed at the Ming army array and said, "They are opening the door."

Sure enough, the village gate had already opened, and you could see that there were many people coming out of it and soon entered again. However, the reinforcements did not move.

"What are they doing? They are eating!" Hilgen's eyes twitched: "I really don't take my Qing Dynasty seriously! Beat the drum! Advance! Those who kill the enemy will be rewarded, and those who retreat will be killed without mercy!"

The village sent people to verify the number and secret words of the reinforcement army, and soon sent hot dishes and hot rice. Although the reinforcements ran all the way, they were also very proud of the meal. Hearing the war drums of the Donglu, the vanguard commander calmly asked the auxiliary soldiers and civilians to have dinner at the back first, and the soldiers lined up to meet the enemy.

When the villagers saw the reinforcements and the dispatch was calm, their morale became even stronger. If the instructor had not allowed them to beat the drums and cheered, the drums in the army would have been disrupted, the village would have beaten the drum face now.
