I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 428: Huge battle damage

"What are they doing?"

The Ming army saw a lot of Dahua soldiers lying down, with a look of bewilderment.

With their brains, it is difficult to understand why lying down can reduce casualties.

After all, the grenade exploded clearly on the ground, and it should be easier to be bombed if you lie underground.

However, when the Chinese soldiers got up again, some Ming soldiers were shocked.

They saw that most of the soldiers near the explosion of the grenade stood up again.

The damage caused by the grenade was far below their expectations.

"How is this going?"

A company commander of the Ming army said to himself that even an officer like him did not understand the reason.

Taking advantage of this moment, the Hua Jun trot all the way closer.

Then, they also threw a wave of grenades first.

Various explosions sounded on the Ming Army positions, and some Ming Army soldiers subconsciously chose to get down.

When they got up again, they found that some of their comrades had been injured.

Then, they were as excited as they had discovered some incredible secrets.

Taking advantage of the chaos of the Ming army being bombed, the soldiers of the Chinese army rushed forward again, rushed to the Ming army, and entered the short-handed contact.

However, the Ming army at this time was still condescending, standing firmly in the fortifications.

As for the soldiers of the Chinese Army, it was difficult to stand firmly due to the **** problem, and it was inconvenient to exert force.

In this case, the Chinese army suffered a big loss.

But this is also no way, who will let them be the offensive side.

After a brief killing, the first wave of the Chinese army rushing on was repelled.

Many of them were stabbed to death, while others fell and rolled down more than ten meters and were injured.

"Prepare the grenade and throw it."

The first wave of offensive was repelled, and the Chinese army threw grenades again.

The Ming army was not to be outdone. They also prepared sufficient supplies for this battle.

The two sides threw a wave of grenades at each other.

According to common sense, the Ming army standing above should have the advantage.

However, judging from the results of the explosion, the damage caused by the grenade throwing between the two sides was evenly matched.

This result is more difficult for both parties to accept.

The Chinese army has always been accustomed to gaining an advantage, and the result of a close match is naturally not satisfactory.

As the defensive side, Ming Jun did not take advantage and was very depressed.

The two sides were in a fight, and at the same time, Shi Shouye had sent a force to Jinfeng, wanting to attack the weak points of the Ming army.

After dispatching a regiment, its headquarters has only more than 1,000 people.

And this is also an opportunity for the Ming army. The more than 1,600 people they ambush at the head of the room also began to descend down the mountain, wanting to attack the headquarters of the Chinese army.

Both sides are in action, and the competition is the speed of scheduling.

The Ming Army’s reserve team was quickly heading to Jinfeng for support, while the Chinese Army headquarters was also building a defensive formation. Even the usual penman and clerk took up weapons and prepared for battle.

Shi Shouye was preparing to resist, not wanting to recall his subordinates for rescue and delay the front line.

Soon, the surprise troops of the Ming Army arrived at the foot of the mountain, less than 100 meters away from Shishouye headquarters.

At this time, the gunfire of the Chinese Army sounded.

Not to be outdone, the Ming army responded with guns.

They no longer have to charge towards the flintlock troops as before, enjoying a fairly fair battle.

This kind of shooting, the hit rate is not high.

However, everyone does not want to give up shooting and take the initiative to move forward, because that will suffer a little loss. Only when the troops and morale are superior can they move forward on their own initiative.

At this time, the forces of both sides were about the same, and they were in a stalemate for a while.

On Jinfeng, the Hua Army also entered the range of the Ming Army.

At this time, the defenders on Jinfeng only had more than 300 men, while the attacking Chinese army had more than 1,400 men.

In terms of strength, the Chinese army has an absolute advantage.

Once this advantage is played out, it will be able to establish victory or defeat in one fell swoop.

With more than a thousand people scattered, the Ming army on Jinfeng felt uncomfortable, and could not defend such a broad face at all.

The Hua army is too scattered, and most of the guns of the defenders have been scrapped.

Soon, the Chinese army arrived at the Ming army's position from many aspects.

The support did not arrive, and the Ming army on Jinfeng defended for a while before quickly retreating and abandoning the mountain.

For their line of defense, the problem of losing a hill is not particularly big.

After the Chinese army captured the top of this mountain, it also had an advantage, that is, there was an extra way to attack Xia Donghu, and it was still from the top down, without the loss of the terrain.

The Ming army was not stupid. Once Jin Feng was lost, Donghu's first line of defense chose to give up, and all began to retreat to Shanglinhu, a higher altitude.

So far, the Chinese army has captured the first line of defense.

After capturing Shi Shouye's headquarters for a period of time, the Ming army found that the Chinese army could not be defeated by this alone.

So they chose to approach.

They went all the way to a distance of only forty meters from the Chinese army before they stopped and continued firing.

At this distance, the lethality of guns is much greater.

Soldiers on both sides continued to fall, and at this time it was the stronger willpower of which side was compared.

The Ming Army believes that the Chinese army must be the first to collapse, because there are a large number of non-combatants in the headquarters of the Chinese army.

Like some men, writers, auxiliary soldiers for transportation and logistics, and so on.

The Ming Army believed that these non-professional fighters would definitely collapse first, and then lead the army to rout.

However, the reality is not as they thought.

The soldiers of the Chinese Army have fallen two to three hundred people, but they still maintain the formation, constantly reloading, firing, and repeating this unskilled operation.

At this moment, their non-professional combatants are actually not much different from professional soldiers.

The Ming army also fell more than 300 people, this kind of casualties has greatly reduced the morale of this army.

They originally thought it was an easy battle, but they ended up in a deadlock.

"Jinfeng was captured."

Just as they were fighting, an officer in charge of observing the situation on the battlefield discovered that his own Jinfeng had fallen.

This is very bad news for them, which means that they have no way to retreat to the headquarters. Although they can escape, they can only escape in other directions. They have to take a long path to return to their position.

And this process is actually very dangerous.

Once pursued by the Chinese army, they have the possibility of annihilation.

"withdraw."

The Ming Army officer in charge of leading the team said.

Seeing that it has been unable to win the command of the Chinese army, it does not make sense to continue to stay here and consume.

More importantly, the Chinese army that had won Jinfeng would have the ability to free up their hands to wipe out their deep-rooted army first.

For safety reasons, the commander of the Ming Army ordered a quick retreat.

Fortunately, the Huajun did not have much desire to pursue, so they escaped relatively easily.

At this point, the first phase of the battle was over, and the Chinese army successfully won the Ming army's first line of defense.

However, Shi Shouye's face was extremely ugly after the war damage report was counted.

A total of 732 people were killed, two hundred and forty people were seriously injured, and more than 500 people were slightly injured but temporarily lost combat effectiveness.

Most of these are injuries such as broken feet or broken hands. They can heal after a period of recuperation, but for the time being, they will definitely be unable to continue fighting.

This battle loss is a bit big, close to a quarter.

With such a high battle loss, Shi Shouye had to temporarily cancel his plan to continue attacking Shanglinhu.

"Let’s wait and see what's going on in other directions. If we can break through in other directions, we don’t need to sacrifice the lives of soldiers in vain. If we encounter difficulties in other directions, then we can only go desperately. ."

Shi Shouye said.

More than a thousand people died in the navy, which directly solved Daming's navy.

They killed and injured more than a thousand people, but they only won a few hills. This kind of effort and gain is completely unworthy.

Although they also killed and injured a lot of Ming troops, this was not their goal. All they wanted was to break through this defense.

As long as they break through the defense, these Ming troops will serve as prisoners, much better than killing them directly.
