After determining the grand strategy of besieging the city, the generals of Liu's private army were somewhat unwilling to do so.
After all, if they really want to besiege the city, their logistical pressure will become extremely terrifying.
Millions of people in Heyang City need to eat. Don’t they need their 300,000 troops?
What's more, there are those elusive teams that constantly harass their baggage team, so that their baggage team has to increase the escort force.
The escort consumption of food, grass and baggage has been greatly increased.
In order to make this unwillingness disappear completely, after informing the lower-level soldiers about the grand strategy, the generals of Liu's private army saw that the morale of the soldiers had recovered a little, so they organized a second siege.
.
The results... are self-evident.
The difference in generation of weapons can definitely produce a massacre effect.
Even in the age of firearms, everyone has the same standard thermal weapons of the era, but just because of the difference in the advancement of the thermal weapons, it is enough to turn the war into a war of annihilation with great disparity.
What's more, this kind of hot weapon abuses cold weapons.
After once again throwing away tens of thousands of corpses, the generals of Liu's private army became completely honest.
An An Shengsheng began to mobilize the army and constantly moved and garrisoned the other three walls of Heyang City.
This unusual movement was naturally clearly visible to the people on the city wall.
Jiang Fan left the tower with a group of people's representatives, and said with a smile: "Liu's private army is afraid of being beaten. Judging from this situation, they should not dare to continue to attack the city, and plan to adopt a siege method."
, trapping us to death.”
"Besieging the city? Wouldn't that cut off our Heyang's connection with the outside world? What about the food problem?"
An octogenarian asked in shock.
"Don't worry, Heyang's food reserves are abundant enough. Since they want to besiege the city, let them do it. I want to see who can't hold it up first."
Jiang Fan said with a smile.
As for the idea of letting the Lin family rush out of the city with hot weapons to fight in the field, he had never considered it at all.
Thermal weapons are indeed very powerful, especially in this era, a small amount of thermal weapons is enough to change the balance of power between them.
But the problem is that thermal weapons also have their limitations.
What's more, it only has enough equipment for one company. If there is really a field battle, once the 300,000 troops on the opposite side surround the Lin family, there will be no guarantee that there will be no accidents.
This kind of defensive battle is the safest!
With the tall city wall as a support, no matter how many people gather on the opposite side, they are just living targets.
There is no slightest risk at all.
Unless absolutely necessary, the option of 'taking risks' would never appear in Jiang Fan's mind.
After leading a group of people's representatives to the Lin family members on the city wall, the people's representatives finally got up close and clearly saw the appearance of those strange weapons.
But the clearer they saw, the more amazed they became.
Because it is really incomprehensible, how can something as small as this have such terrifying power?
"How do you feel? Are you tired?"
Jiang Fan started chatting with a member of the Lin family nearby.
The Lin family member couldn't help but froze for a moment, stretched out his hand to scratch his head, and said awkwardly: "Young master, you just hold this thing and pull the trigger. Apart from aiming, you don't have to do anything else. How is that possible?
Tired? It’s just... you just think it’s too easy, right?”
"The development of weapons is to make war easier. It's a pity that more powerful weapons will make war more cruel. There is no way around it. If you are given enough ammunition, take it in your hands
With your rifle, how many enemies are you confident you can defeat?"
Jiang Fan asked with a smile.
The Lin family member tilted his head and thought for a while, then said: "Young master, if there is enough ammunition and there are no strong enough warriors on the other side, and I just rely on this gun in my hand, then I can guarantee that with as much ammunition as I have, I will
How many people can be killed! Of course, the premise is that there is enough space for adjustment."
"Well, that's right. Get ready. You never know when I will need to select some of you to carry out a sneak attack on Liu's army."
Jiang Fan patted this tribesman on the shoulder and said.
An expression of excitement immediately appeared on the face of this Lin family member, and he nodded and said: "Don't worry, young master! No matter what the task is, I guarantee that it will be completed successfully!"
Jiang Fan agreed with a smile, and then called Qiu Jianyi, who had been responsible for supervising the battle.
When Qiu Jianyi approached, Jiang Fan found that Qiu Jianyi's expression seemed to be in a trance.
"What's wrong? Are you not satisfied with the results?"
Jiang Fan asked with a smile.
"Ah? No, Master, you misunderstood. I really... didn't expect it to be so easy. To be honest, I was a little numb, as if those who were killed under the city wall were not human beings at all."
Qiu Jianyi shook his head and said with a wry smile.
"You have to get used to this feeling. I'll leave it to you here. There should be no more changes in Liu's army. Since they want to play a war of attrition, let's see who can outlast the other. I'm going to visit Qian's house.
.”
Jiang Fan gave an order, and then led hundreds of people's representatives down the city wall.
In fact, the time from the beginning to now did not last long, and the time for actual siege battles was even less.
However, the people's representatives were shocked beyond words. They followed Jiang Fan down the city wall. After saluting Jiang Fan and saying goodbye, these people's representatives began to share what they saw and heard with the people in Heyang City.
.
It is conceivable that in the next period of time, the entire people of Heyang City will probably feel that they are listening to a book from heaven.
Lin Wanqing and Su Xiaonuan were asked to return to the house first, while Jiang Fan himself took Lin Wanru and Tieniu to Qian's house.
Qian Sihai had a lot of things to do recently, so he didn't go to the city wall to watch the battle.
Qian Sihai and Qian Rushan went out in person to welcome them into the house. Before Qian Sihai could express his surprise and admiration for Jiang Fan and Lin Wanru's clothes, Jiang Fan said bluntly: "Exceptor Qian, your home should have a door leading outside the city."
Authentic to a farm, right?”
"ah?"
Qian Sihai was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly and said: "It is true, sir, I don't know..."
"Immediately arrange manpower to move everything from the farm outside back to the city! If the Qian family's own warehouse is not enough, I can temporarily lend you the government warehouse."
Jiang Fan said.
"Sir, did something happen?"
Qian Sihai asked cautiously.
"It's not a big deal. We repelled the attack of Liu's private army of 300,000 people. They found that there was no hope of attacking the city, so they planned to adopt a siege method to trap us. In this case, everything outside the city will be transported to the city.
.To avoid being discovered by Liu’s army and giving them an advantage.”
Jiang Fan said very casually.
Qian Sihai couldn't help but froze on the spot.
How long has it been since then? We have already repelled Liu’s attack of 300,000 troops?! Is it so miraculous?
"Exceptor Qian?"
Seeing Qian Sihai in a daze, Jiang Fan couldn't help shouting again,
"Ah? Yes! Don't worry, sir! I will make arrangements right away!"
