Jiang Mu calculated in his mind that there should be about 1,800 grenades. Although the number is not large, it has already achieved a saturation blow for the small copycat in front of him.

It was very clear from the telescope that most of the houses on the mountain had caught fire, but there were still many people running around in the village, so Jiang Mu judged that many of the people in the village still had their own combat power and could not order their soldiers to charge at this moment.

When we went up to save people just now, it was the first time that our people and the soldiers in the village had met in close combat. Two soldiers here were injured, which shows that they have good archery skills.

So when the other party still had the strength to resist, Jiang Mu would never let his soldiers take risks no matter what. He would let the artillery rest for a while, and then wait for our field artillery to come and come to the mountain for a while.

There are many shells here. Let’s remember that if you can use shells, don’t use bullets to solve things. If you can use bullets, you can’t use steel knives to solve things. Now it’s time to use shells to solve things. The lives of soldiers are the most precious.

Zhu Cixuan asked them to turn this view around, which took a lot of effort. The Ming Dynasty has been in existence for hundreds of years, and not many generals think that the lives of soldiers are very important.

They have always believed that these instruments are very important, but after fighting with His Royal Highness for so long, they can tell the difference between veterans and new recruits. If they ignore the casualties of their soldiers, then your army may be full of new recruits at any time.

These new recruits are not weak in combat, but the gap is very obvious compared to veterans. If you want to experience military achievements, a certain number of veterans is absolutely indispensable.

At this time, Wu Chengxun also led a large army to come.

"Didn't you say you should use the official method of the court? Why did you start fighting after coming?"

Wu Chengxun said with a smile.

"I did find someone to send the documents. Who knew that these people did not take the imperial order seriously. I was passive in attacking. They ordered the cavalry to assault without asking any questions. We naturally cannot suffer any losses."

Jiang Mu said helplessly. Originally, this guy was thinking about negotiating first and then using force, but now it seems that that is a waste of time.

These people on the mountain do not take the imperial court seriously at all. They have to rely on force to let them understand that your previous understanding is outdated, and no matter which land it is in the future, the imperial court will have the final say.

"Let the soldiers bury the pot and cook, and prepare for a rest."

Wu Chengxun's order made Jiang Mu stunned. Jiang Mu was still preparing to wait for the artillery to rest enough and then launch an attack immediately. At least he had to take down the hamlet before tonight, but why did Wu Chengxun issue such an order?

"Brig Commander, aren't we going to pursue the victory? But if we delay one night, maybe their support will come. If we want to take down the cottage tomorrow, the wasted effort will be great."

Jiang Mu said in a little unclear way, but he knew that Wu Chengxun was much better at military ability than himself.

"I said, "Your Chiang has some things, you have to use your brain more. Look at this mountain, it is very steep. Are we afraid that they will send reinforcements? We should be afraid that they will not send reinforcements. What I fear most is that they have pulled away all the people and left us an empty official village. We have to continue to fight up the mountain. If we leave the official village to them, these people will definitely not want to throw them away. They will send people from the mountain. Is it better to fight here? Or to go to the mountain?"

After listening to Wu Chengxun's words, Jiang Mu slapped his head and was indeed not as good as the brigade commander.

"I didn't expect that just thinking about accepting here, the brigade commander is still far-sighted. If we go up the mountain, there are too many problems. Not to mention the terrain problems, transporting these artillery and various supplies up there will be a life-threatening thing. It would be better to solve the battle at the foot of the mountain."

What Jiang Mu thought was what Wu Chengxun thought, although he knew that he would definitely have to lead troops up the mountain in the future, otherwise there would be no way to solve these chieftains.

But if we can delay it a little, we will delay it a little. Now, after we solve most of their new forces at the foot of the mountain, after we arrive on the mountain, the danger we encounter will plummet.

The people on the mountain are also on high alert at this moment. They have sent people back to ask for reinforcements, but they are very afraid that the people at the foot of the mountain will attack immediately. Who knew that after watching for a while, they found that the people at the foot of the mountain have actually started to make rice.

If we had encountered such a situation in the past, Duotu would definitely lead people to attack. While the other party was having a meal, our soldiers rushed down from the mountain and could achieve unexpected results.

But now there is no such idea of ​​drawing more than this. There are less than 500 people left in two or three thousand people. These people will go down to take revenge. As long as you dare to step out of the official village, no one will be able to come back alive. Now you have to wait here, waiting for the reinforcements of the chieftain.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Mu quickly asked these Han people to retreat to the back. They would have to fight on the mountain sooner or later. If it was too close to the battlefield, it would not be a good thing for these ordinary people.

We may not be able to grasp the situation on the battlefield at all times. These people continue to stay here as a constraint on the Ming army.

Jiang Dagui also found his family members among the crowd, but this guy did not retreat with the others. He knew what the imperial army was here to do. If he could not solve these people on the mountain, even if he was reunited with his family, he would have to be separated by these people on the mountain sooner or later.

He had to stay here and do his best. If this place was really like what these generals said, and all returned to the rule of the Ming Dynasty, that would be the beginning of their new life.

As far as Jiang Dagui remembered, the Han people had never stopped fighting these pleasant southwests, but the Han people generally suffered losses, mainly because the other party had a geographical advantage, and the other was that the officials of the Ming Dynasty were all vacant.

Every time the imperial court wanted to wipe out the chieftains on the mountain, they would go up excitedly and return in disappointment. As long as they encountered failure, they would immediately start to retreat. Then the chieftains on the mountain would go down the mountain to plunder the Han people and make up for the losses of the war. This has formed a bad cycle...
