I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

"Brigade commander, let's shrink our defense, give up some favorable terrain on the periphery, and shrink to the periphery of the business zone. In this way, our defense line can be greatly reduced, which is conducive to concentrating our forces and facilitating mutual support."

Ning Guojiang's staff suggested that this is a bit risky, that is, if a point is breached, the enemy can immediately rush into the business zone and cause damage.

However, there is also the advantage of narrowing the line of defense and concentrating forces as much as possible.

The more concentrated the troops, the more their strength can be exerted.

"Just do this, and send people to the business district at the same time, and let those businessmen organize their buddies and strong men. Once our defense line is broken, they need to save themselves."

Ning Guojiang ordered.

There are a lot of coolies, workers and buddies in the business district, but such untrained people are actually not very useful when facing the regular army, so Ning Guojiang didn't count on it before.

But now, even the smallest power has to be used.

Following the order, Wu Jun acted urgently, continuously retreating and shrinking.

After retreating to the point where there is no way to retreat, divide the troops to seize the intersections in all directions, and block the footsteps of the Ming army here.

In the business area, the merchants who received Ning Guojiang's order quickly organized themselves to protect their goods.

"Keep the warehouse and protect the goods. Afterwards, each person will be rewarded with one tael of silver. For each person killed, another two taels will be rewarded."

Now, these businessmen have also become more generous.

Only by the temptation of this kind of reward can the fighting spirit of these coolies be stimulated.

When they heard that they could get a tael of silver just by participating in the battle, those coolies were moved. Especially some organized coolie gangs, they are not afraid of death, they also think that they can take the opportunity to kill a few enemies and make some extra money.

The businessmen organized and cursed at the same time.

"It's absurd that this motherfucker's court actually came to rob money in an upright manner."

"The Duke of Wu fought against the Qing in the north, and the court actually did such a thing behind the scenes. It's really rotten wood that can't be carved."

"I don't know how Duke Wu and the court will get along after this incident."

They all realized that this incident is not simple, it may cause a big change in the pattern, but they don't know how it will change.

After the fallout, did Wu Changqing choose to surrender or choose to be independent?

They were discussing when suddenly there was a gunshot in the distance.

The Ming army and the Wu army were already in contact, and a battle broke out.

Wu Jun was the first to shoot. The characteristics of the weapons allowed them to take the lead in every battle and take advantage of it.

In addition to the gunshots, their small-caliber guns also started firing.

Their number of artillery pieces is small, only two are assigned to this direction. In other directions, there are only two doors at most, and there are not yet in some places.

When the two weapons worked together, Qianhu of the Ming army frowned.

If you want to break through this layer of firepower network, the price you need to pay is not small.

"Temporarily stop advancing, take a few steps back, and wait for other directions to start attacking before charging."

The Chito said.

At this time, the charge is of little significance. Even if the Wu army breaks through the defense line, the Wu army can transfer troops to assist the defense at any time.

When the entire line is attacked, the Wu army will be overwhelmed in other directions, and they only need to face the two battalions in front of them.

The Ming army's advance in other directions was not slow, and soon the sound of battle came from many directions.

The thousand households ordered the attack again: "Rush over, rush in front of them and fight hand-to-hand. Our troops are four times their strength. As long as we start hand-to-hand combat, we will win."

In addition to cheering up the soldiers, he also used the reward to tempt him: "As long as you rush into the business district, you can plunder it, no matter how much money you can grab, it's all yours."

Hearing this condition, the soldiers' eyes lit up, and they had more fighting spirit.

They all know that gold and silver are piled up in the business district. If you can grab it casually, as long as you finish this ticket, you can retire and go home and live a carefree little life.

For this goal, many people are willing to fight for it.

"kill."

At a distance of more than 150 meters from the Wu army, the Ming army began to charge.

The Qing army generally had to walk within 100 meters before starting to charge, which was the difference between the elite and the belly.

The elites were able to hold their breath, but the soldiers in the fish belly troop had only been shot to death by a few unlucky ghosts, so they could not wait to rush to Wu Jun to change the situation where they could only be passively beaten.

But they ignored their physical strength. After running more than 100 meters in a row, they still have the strength to kill the enemy?

After they rushed for nearly 100 meters, their physical strength had seriously declined, and their speed had slowed down uncontrollably.

This operation almost made Wu Jun soldiers look stupid. The distance was long, and they ran so fast when the hit was low. Now that the distance is close and the hit is high, they run more slowly. This is not courting death.

Wu Jun soldiers couldn't figure it out, but they didn't think about it too much. Instead, they seized the time and continued to kill.

They have few troops, and although the killing efficiency is very high, there are still nearly a thousand people rushing in front of them.

Rushing to the front does not mean that the Ming army has won victory.

They paid too much attention to Wu Jun's firearms, but they didn't know Wu Jun's ability to fight in close quarters.

As soon as the two sides fought, the soldiers of the Ming army found that they had been deceived by their superiors.

Damn it, rush to the enemy and win, and there is still a bayonet wall that can't be broken through.

The charge died 30% to 40%, and a wave of thorns died another 10%. The soldiers of the Ming army have reached the limit of casualties that they can bear.

Some soldiers couldn't help turning around and running away, while others simply knelt down and surrendered.

But at this time, Wu Jun didn't have time to catch the prisoners, so he just killed them directly.

They also need to support other directions. The soldiers on their side are all flintlock troops with strong strength. Naturally, there is no problem in defending this direction.

However, in other directions, Wu Jun did not have advanced weapons and used cold weapons.

In these directions, Wu Jun has already fallen into a bitter struggle.

Although they are all elites, they can't stand up to three or four times the enemy.

After a tragic tearing and killing, Wu Jun fell in some directions.

However, it was not easy for the Ming army. In order to break through the Wu army's line of defense, they paid a very heavy price.

The remaining soldiers rushed into the commercial area, and the villagers organized by the merchants had already formed a formation to wait for them.

Although Xiangyong was relatively useless, the morale of the Ming army was not high due to heavy losses at this time.

At this time, the Ming army had fallen into a dilemma.

Retreat, not reconciled, those soldiers died in vain.

Keep rushing to loot, it's another big question whether you can get out of the business district alive.
