Chapter 1887: The mill of blood and flesh
The earth was trembling, the artillery shells were roaring, the bombs exploded, and the night sky instantly turned into daylight. The city was completely reflected by the dazzling explosion flames and the flares of oil bombs. Numerous mushroom clouds were rising, and the sky over the city quickly became smoky. .
Babel Pasha, with a cold face, stayed in a bastion on the outer wall, watching the explosions blooming all over the place, without saying a word.
Burhan Pasha arrived and dragged him down forcibly, along the passage of the inner and outer walls, and into the inner wall.
When they moved, they passed by the wall. Some soldiers held shields to cover them tightly and were not targeted.
When they just entered the gate of the passage, they only heard a violent shock. Looking back, the bastion just now had a huge cannon bomb and it collapsed!
The volley flew into the air, the momentum was shocking, and the flying bricks banged on their closed iron gates.
There is no danger, Babel Pasha said helplessly: "I have fought for more than 20 years, and this is the first time I have seen such fierce firepower. Alas, the Chinese are too rich!"
He was very emotional. He was also a veteran. He had fought against Baipi on the European battlefield. He looked down upon Baipi. He thought that Baipi had no skills at all. If he hadn't been defeated by the Ottomans with strong fortifications.
Now the Ottomans have become white-skinned, turned into turtles hiding in caves, Babel Pasha has the heart to fight the Chinese, but they have so many muskets that they can’t rush in front of them, the Baotou guys It's all dead, how can we fight this battle!
He desperately strengthened the city defenses, lest the city defenses could not be effective, he finally looked like this, and other officials had seen it and they all said it was "Little Istanbul", that is, it had a city defense similar to Istanbul, and wanted to be able to resist the Chinese attack.
Fortunately, the Chinese used giant cannons to raise the muzzle to hit the bastion. Many of the cannons were empty, but they landed in the city and there was no waste.
The more you fight, the more you hit, and most of the bastions on the outer wall of Adana have been destroyed!
Babel Pasha knows how much silver dollars a cannon is worth, and if you want to fill the cannon with gunpowder, they are all silver dollars!
If he had so many ammunition, he would have taken Vienna long ago!
It's a pity that he doesn't. Now he is facing the danger of the enemy's hills and piles of cities. Babel Pasha can only drive the soldiers up to the city wall and use their flesh and blood to meet the Chinese people's bombardment!
The officers of the three attacking armies all knew what his white-skinned chief of staff thought. He wanted to bleed the Baotou guy. The more he died, the happier he was.
At the same time, Mr. Dai will not allow too many casualties for the three soldiers.
It is necessary to kill the enemy while avoiding excessive losses to one's own family, which really tests the commanding ability of the officers.
It is the hammer-anvil tactic. Our army is a sledgehammer, and the enemy's city wall is an anvil. It is Baotou who was smashed into flesh and blood on the anvil!
"Today I am a sword, he is a fish, and he beats me fiercely! Quick, quick!" The officers turned red eyes and drove the soldiers and migrant workers to build up the mountains.
The side of the city wall was boiling, soldiers and civilians carrying bags of earth and rocks on their backs, shoulders, and transport, swarmed in groups, threw the earth and rocks to the wall, and then got wind on their feet, and went back to load new ones. Earth and rock.
Some piles of earthen hills are already close to the top of the outer wall, only separated by a battlement.
The Baotou guys were crazy. They knew that as long as the Chinese controlled the city wall, the Adana City was imminent, so they killed them with their lives.
Throwing the bomb the first day was cool, but now I don’t have to throw it, so I have to send someone there.
You pile the mountain, he piles up his life. In order to prevent the Chinese from reaching the top, Baotou guys ignored the firepower of the Chinese, but used their lives to keep the Chinese out of the city. They rushed to the wall and drove the Chinese off. At the same time, Chinese snipers from a hundred meters away were harvesting the lives of Baotou guys. Artillery, bombs and catapult firepower continued to be dropped on the city, especially high-destructive bombs exploded continuously in the enemy group.
The Baotou guys fell one by one, and the corpses on the top of the city were quickly piled up, blood even flowed from the battlements to the outside of the city, staining the outer walls red!
They suffered heavy casualties, and the Chinese attacking sergeants were all armored, armed with single swords and shields, which really protected their teeth.
But Baotou didn’t know. When they saw that the Chinese were about to cross the battlements, they counterattacked the Chinese. Baotou shouted religious slogans to embolden themselves. They swarmed and braved the Chinese artillery fire. It was a thrilling experience. The hand-to-hand combat began, and the city's flesh and blood flew all over the place, smashing into a ball!
A Baotou guy was chopped off by a big blade. Instead of falling down, he rushed forward and rolled down the hill with the Chinese in his arms!
A Chinese soldier was thrust into the ground with a spear by Baotou guy, but he took out a firecracker and killed Baotou guy!
Two Chinese soldiers and Baotou guys pinched to each other!
...
The crazy energy of the two sides made Yan Changwu who had been on the Tushan Mountain to watch the battle in his eyes. He watched the battle scene from the periscope-like telescope, and trembled constantly. He was moved to tears by the heroic dedication of the soldiers!
It wasn't until dark that the battle slowly subsided. At this time, I saw from the telescope the place where our army was fighting on the city wall with heavy casualties, and the eye was full of appalling red, which made one's heart palpitation.
The ratio of casualties between the enemy and ourselves reached five to one, and the Baotou guys depended on human lives to crush the Chinese!
At dawn on the third day, there was a burst of cannons, which started a day of fiercer fighting.
The firepower of the Chinese is as fierce as they have been in their homes, and they have implemented countless rogue tactics of destroying the enemy regardless of ammunition consumption. They gathered 20 Iraqi guns, stacked them in two rows, and bombarded Xicheng in a row of guns. Then there were bursts of bombardment, but the endless thunder.
Many places in the West City collapsed, and some places have been mixed with the soil and mountains piled on the side of the city, and you can climb the city!
When the gunfire stopped, the Chinese went up the mountain!
When they arrived at the "mid-mountain", what awaited them were hordes of bombs, kerosene bottles, and a dense array of bullets. The Baotou guys did not hesitate to play firepower tactics to bring the Chinese soldiers down. They blocked.
Well, play with them enough. The Chinese still used more fierce firepower. Baotou lost to the enemy and was rushed to the city wall by the Chinese soldiers.
In the melee between the two sides ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ the Baotou guys turned into anger, and they resorted to the most vicious and despicable means. When the two armies were involved in hand-to-hand combat, they suddenly attacked with fierce firepower, killing the enemy and our troops together. , In order to keep the city wall position.
However, they calculated their calculations. The protection of the Chinese soldiers far exceeded that of Baotou. Even if the bomb exploded in the crowd, most of the people who fell were Baotou.
Fighting so badly, the Baotou guy used his life to push the Chinese down to the city.
In three days, five thousand Chinese soldiers were killed and injured, of which one thousand five hundred were killed and three thousand five hundred were injured.
And Baotou Lao suffered as many as 25,000 casualties, more than 12,000 were killed in the war, and more than 5,000 of the wounded died due to fever and infection.
The three walls are full of offensive troops. People say that Yan Changwu is soft-hearted, and the entire line of siege on such a large area is so exhausted every day, some troops will be exhausted in ten days!
In this case, the generals are unsteady, and tomorrow they are ready to go to the battlefield!
