After glanced at the staff members discussing something with each other in front of a simple sand table in the tent, He Guozhong interrupted directly: "Brothers, after this battle, the garrison's already very limited pretentiousness and ammunition was used again 30%.: 7769696%65/"

"As for the remaining ammunition and firearms, no matter how much we save, we can only spend half a day tomorrow."

"Now, I ask you to formulate a complete defensive plan based on the real situation of the garrison... As for this plan, I will have several requirements."

"First, the entire combat plan must ensure that the salt farm lasts for two days."

"Second, during the battle, avoid close-range battles with the official army as much as possible..."

In He Guozhong's view, after he put forward these two requirements, the entire combat plan will become very difficult and almost impossible to complete.

However, what He Guozhong did not expect was that as soon as he finished speaking, the military staff who had been following him followed him and asked: "Team Commander, in the entire combat plan, if conditions permit, can we take the initiative to attack..."

"In the view of the last general, when the government army has the advantage of military strength and we still have the disadvantage of equipment, we can only last for two days only by seizing the opportunity, using limited firearms, and using one battle to give the official army outside the city a fatal blow."

He Guozhong's eyes lit up and he asked...

"Tell me what you think?"

"Yes, division commander..." The staff officer of the Suijun quickly expressed the thoughts in his mind.

"I thought so. The purpose of the official army tonight's night attack was to consume our limited firearms and ammunition. When the battle was in full swing, I suddenly ordered my subordinates to stop attacking us... More importantly, this withdrawal order happened to be after we stopped using firearms and switched to cold weapons to defend the salt field."

"Based on these circumstances, we will infer that the official army that launched this night attack must have believed that our limited firearms had been used up in the battle just now. In the end, we had to use cold weapons to fight with their offensive troops in close range."

"Since that's the case, why can't we give the government troops outside the city a 'strike'..."

"Use the remaining firearms in our hands to the foot of the city wall. A fatal blow to the attacking troops of the government army, which completely damaged the vitality of the government army outside the city. In a short period of time, there was no courage or force. Continue to attack us..."

Hearing this, the shrewd He Guozhong immediately showed an expression of sudden enlightenment on his face.

At the same time, two pairs of eyes shot out of hot gazes.

He nodded in praise at the staff in front of him and said loudly: "I understand. Now, I will appoint you as the chief of staff of the garrison division and immediately take all the staff of the garrison division. Before dawn, improve your combat plan..."

The feint attack last night that lasted an hour. Although it caused me to lose more than 2,000 guard troops, Zhu Dadian, who thought he had achieved the purpose of feinting, did not show any sign of heartache.

As soon as the sky was dawn, Zhu Dadian walked out of the tent and began to use a monocular telescope to observe the salt field wall two miles away. He didn't know how many times he had seen.

Soon, several generals under his command also came over one after another.

Seeing that everyone's faces were covered with a smile from the bottom of their hearts, Zhu Dadian knew that after last night's feigning skills, everyone here was full of confidence in today's attack.

Under Zhu Dadian's gaze, several generals seemed to have agreed and asked for battle at the same time: "Sir, today's attack, the last general is willing to take the first attack... and lead the soldiers under his command to enter the salt field first..."

After glanced at the few generals who were rarely invited to fight, the smile on Zhu Dadian's face became even stronger.

After taking a deep breath, he replied to everyone with a smile: "I know that you all want to take the lead in capturing the salt field. No matter who I ask is the first to launch an attack, the remaining people will definitely not be convinced."

"Since that's the case, in order to avoid you saying that I am biased, I will not designate the specific first-invasion troops for this attack."

"After the battle started, the musketeers and archers rushed to the predetermined position and suppressed and shot the tiger and leopard defenders on the city wall. After doing all this, we had four remaining siege teams, regardless of order, attacked the salt field at the same time..."

"Four siege teams, four thousand elites, one man and one big knife, can chop the tiger and leopard army with only cold weapons on the city wall into meat paste, take down the city wall, and attack the salt field..."

"At that time, whose troops will be the first to enter the salt field, and whose first skill in this attack will be..."

Hearing this, the faces of several people were immediately covered with smiles. He answered at Zhu Dadian with a eager look on his face: "Please rest assured, I will lead my subordinates to be the first to enter the salt field..."

At this moment, in a military tent located behind the city wall, the division commander He Guozhong was looking at several staff members on the sand table, deducing their latest combat plan for himself with a serious face.

After reading it, even though Wei Zheng personally advised him, He Guozhong, who was also a staff member, did not find any flaws. Because, under the leadership of the chief of staff, these staff members in front of him basically considered all the accidents that could be considered.

After asking a few questions in his heart again, He Guozhong, who had already made a decision in his heart, decisively ordered: "Implement it according to the combat plan you have formulated..."

"In order to ensure the greatest victory, we will ask the soldiers to use all the remaining flowering bullets, grenades, and more than 200 explosive packs that everyone made overnight..."

The battlefield that had been calm for several hours, followed the waves of the official army, slowly walked out of the barracks and entered the vision of the salt field defenders. The atmosphere on the battlefield became solemn.

In order to make the plan smoothly and to ensure the safety of the salt field behind him, as soon as the official army appeared, He Guozhong stayed with a group of staff and climbed up the city wall.

Perhaps it was because they knew that the Tiger and Leopard Army still had fired muskets, and the confident and arrogant official army did not launch an attack on the city wall together.

Like yesterday's battle, even though we knew that artillery could not have a killing effect on the salt field defenders, the first thing the official army launched was still artillery hundreds of steps away. In their eyes, it would be very cost-effective to use these solid shells to hit the morale of the Tiger and Leopard Army.

A series of solid artillery shells hit the city wall one after another. The vast number of officials and musketeers also dispatched. (To be continued...)
