1691 Prepare for the general attack

The officers were upset when they heard this, and someone immediately asked: "Captain Liu, are you sure you can explode the walls of Chenyang City? You must know that the walls of Chenyang City are not the walls of other ordinary cities. They are extremely tall and thick. The shells hit them only leave a white dot!"

Captain Liu took out a stack of paper and looked through it and said, "Based on our calculations, we can definitely explode the city wall! The specific calculation method is like this, first of all..."

As soon as he said this, he was stopped by Liu Pei and said, "Captain Liu, you don't need to introduce the calculation method. You just need to explain to the people here how confident you are!"

Captain Liu muttered in a low voice: "Things that have not been calculated are unscientific!"

Then he said loudly: "We are at least 90% sure we can blow up the city walls of Shenyang!"

Before he finished speaking, the officers suddenly started to make noise and expressed their willingness to be a vanguard to attack Chenyang City! In their opinion, if you are 60% sure on the battlefield, you can do it with your head, let alone 90%! That means that Chenyang City will be destroyed!

Liu Pei waved his hand to signal everyone to calm down, and then said: "The attack is arranged by the General Staff, but I would like to remind you here that there are nearly 100,000 troops in Chenyang City and outside the city, so it is not so easy to fight! What's more, this battle is almost a battle of genocide for the Qing Dynasty, and they will definitely fight to the death! So everyone must pay attention to minimizing casualties as much as possible! Here I ask you to tell the soldiers below that no matter what happens, whether they are facing women, children or children, as long as they feel they are in danger, they can shoot first!"

When the officers heard Liu Pei say this, they naturally agreed, but they were not worried about the massacre of women and children, because according to the information, most of the ordinary people in Chenyang City had been moved away, and the rest were the families of powerful generals, and there was no psychological pressure on them to take action!

Liu Pei continued: "The attack time is set in three days! Everyone should use these two days to think about the tactics, how to reduce casualties after entering Chenyang City? How to quickly attack the Qing army camp? The people from the General Staff will announce the order of attacks in each unit!"

Although the general attack was three days later, Liu Pei did not relax the attack the next day! He did not want Germany to have any chance to obtain intelligence. Moreover, in the past two days, Liu Pei took advantage of the opportunity to build a forward camp to quietly mobilize a large number of troops and prepare to attack the Xidaying of the Qing army at the beginning of the battle!

Now the east city gate of Shenyang City is completely under Liu Pei's control, and Liu Pei can also send people to block the north and south city gates at any time! But in order not to let Dorgon and others run away, blocking the west city gate is necessary! Now Liu Pei has prepared all his trump cards, and wait until the days are coming and I will open it!

Early in the morning of the third day, Liu Peicao had breakfast and took the officers to the watchtower. Before climbing the watchtower, Liu Pei kicked the wooden ladder in the watchtower and said to the guards on duty: "I told you that this watchtower needs to be reinforced again. Have you reinforced it?"

The guard smiled and said, "Don't worry, the handsome man! It was reinforced last night, no matter how big the movement is, there will be no problem!"

Liu Pei snorted and said, "Then you don't know how much noise will happen in a while!"

However, he still stepped up to the watchtower. He still believed in the abilities of his own soldiers. At least these guards were loyal and would not discount his orders.

After Liu Pei and his group went up to the looking building, he casually asked, "How long will it take?"

The officer behind him looked at the watch and said, "It's less than a moment!"

Liu Pei slapped the railing hard and said, "The moon is getting more anxious! I've been waiting for only a quarter of an hour!"

At this time, no one on the tower said. After all, the battle was in front of him, everyone was very nervous and had no intention of talking at all! Although Liu Pei looked confident in his face, he was actually in a state of mind!

Time passed by minute by minute, and everyone present was anxious to wait! This quarter of an hour was as long as a year! Some officers could no longer stand and kept shaking their bodies! At this moment, a guard ran and climbed up to the viewing tower and said loudly: "Master, the fuse has been ignited!"

Liu Pei and others were shocked when they heard this, and immediately looked up to the distance! They saw the army gathered outside the camp.

The team began to clamor and slowly move forward.

Liu Pei knew that this attack was a feint attack, and they would not even get close to the city wall. They just wanted to attract as many Qing troops as possible to climb the city and kill and injure some Qing troops.

Seeing that his army had acted as planned, Liu Pei looked up at the opposite city wall. There were many Qing soldiers on duty on the city wall. Now, when they saw Shandong soldiers moving forward, they immediately sounded the alarm bell and called to go to the city.

But what makes Liu Pei regret is that these Qing troops are now well-educated! They know that they will be bombarded by artillery when they go up to the city, and maybe there will be feint attacks under the city, so there are not many people who actually sent them to the city. However, Liu Pei doesn't care about these things, and one less Qing army on the city is killed!

Although the Shandong soldiers and horses were clamoring forward loudly, they roared for a long time and didn't even walk out for more than ten feet! Although the Qing army on the top of the city looked strange, they were happy to be idle! It would be better not to fight!

Especially the Qing army officer who was ringing the alarm bell lay on the city wall and looked out, saying, "This group of Shandong soldiers are so strange today? They act like turtles crawling! There must be any conspiracy, and the prince must know!"

After saying that, he retracted his head and said to the soldiers beside him, "You go and report a letter to Shangguan, and just say that it's very strange outside!"

He said it, and he heard the first half, but the second half of his voice was indeed gone without a trace, and he could not hear it! When he was surprised, he felt that the bricks under his feet were moving like goods! Then he felt a great force surge from his feet, and then he knew nothing!

In Liu Pei's eyes, things seemed completely different! He first saw the earth under the city wall slowly arching upwards, and the city wall also rose upwards! Then the thick city wall cracked like a piece of paper torn apart! Then countless red flames gushed out of the earth, tearing the city wall in the air into pieces! The red flames pointed straight into the air like a volcano erupting!
