Chaluhan indeed fell into the trap of Li Dingguo.

Or he has no choice.

Such an opportunity was placed in front of him.

If he doesn't catch it, the Ottoman army will be dragged down sooner or later.

In other words, the ambush of the Ming army accelerated the speed of his attack.

Now he can only hope for a blitzkrieg.

The Ottoman army advanced rapidly towards Isfahan City, and within a few days they entered the Ming army's planned attack range.

However, this time, the Ming army changed its previous plan to defend the enemy and chose to fight head-on with the Ottomans.

The main force led by Li Dingguo is the absolute ace army.

Li Laiheng and Liu Tichun acted as deputy to Li Dingguo and provided support as his right-hand man.

As for Yuan Zongdi, Hao Yaoqi, Liu Xingming and others, they stationed in three acropolises respectively.

They support each other, no matter which aspect the Ottomans choose to attack, they can provide support to their peers as soon as possible.

The problem is obviously facing Chaluhan now.

Where to start is the problem he needs to solve now.

"General, should we fight a few acropolis first, or directly attack Isfahan City?"

The deputy general directly put this issue on the surface.

Chaluhan narrowed his eyes slightly and thought about this issue carefully.

Obviously, this time the Persian army and the Ming army were well prepared.

They waited for the Ottoman army to attack the city of Isfahan.

In other words, neither attacking the main city nor the acropolis could open up the situation at the first time.

From the perspective of effectiveness, it is obvious that the successful attack on the Acropolis was better.

But Chaluhan hopes to attack the main city even more.

Because Persian Emperor Abbas II was there, if he could take down the main city, he could end the battle very quickly.

And if he takes down the Acropolis, he will inevitably attack the main city next.

With such a big circle, what exactly is he looking for?

"Attack the main city, I have decided, I'll send an order."

Chaluhan knew that there was not much time left for him. If the battle could not be ended within ten days or at most fifteen days, the morale of the army would inevitably collapse.

Since this is the case, he did not hesitate to take any gamble.

...

...

The fish has been baited.

Li Dingguo was ecstatic when he learned that the Ottoman army was bypassing several acropolises to surround the main city.

It can be said that this is the situation he most wants to see.

The reason why the Ottomans are strong is that their field combat capabilities are excellent.

However, when it comes to siege, the Ottomans do not seem to have much advantage.

Even if the Ottomans brought cannons this time, it would only help them siege the city and would not bring much change.

What's more, this time the Ming army has taken the initiative to seek change and has taken the initiative to go out of the city to fight.

In this case, the pressure faced by the Ottomans will be unprecedented.

As Li Dingguo said before, the city of Isfahan is now held in the middle by stars in several acropolises.

In this case, the Ottomans bypassed the Acropolis and attacked the main city, which was equivalent to giving up their backs to the Ming army.

As long as the Ming army operates properly, it will not only destroy the enemy in one fell swoop, but at least it can gain a great advantage.

He arranged Liu Tichun and Li Laiheng in those two hills to completely block the Ottoman retreat and leave them with no way out.

"This time, let's do it head-on with real swords and guns. If you lose this time, see if you have any excuses to find."

Li Dingguo knew very well that for a wolf-like country like the Ottoman Empire, if they could not completely defeat them, they would repeatedly provoke you.

It's time to tell them who is the real strong man.

...

Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo w

A low horn sounded, which was a signal of siege.

The Ottomans were plucking up their strength to take down the city of Isfahan in one fell swoop. They set up a formation, lined up the cannons transported in advance, and aimed at the top of the city.

Strangely, the Ming army ambushed their grain transport team, but did not ambush the team transporting cannons.

It seems that in the mind of the Ming army, the Ottoman artillery was not worth mentioning.

This made the Ottomans feel very angry and they feel that they are being humiliated.

They wanted to prove to the Ming army with practical actions that their choice was wrong.

Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo w

Accompanied by the sound of horns, the Ottoman cannons officially began to sprint.

Countless artillery shells roared towards the city.

Although under the order of Abbas II, the Persian army had already made full preparations.

But when they were really facing the Ottoman attack, they still seemed a little busy.

"Add a little harder, a little harder."

"Hide, you're looking for death."

"The artillery has intermittent fire, and they fired a fierce counterattack for me."

There is no doubt that the Persians also had artillery. In terms of artillery power, their artillery may not be as sharp as the Ottomans, but after all, the number is here to make up for the gap in power.

As for Emperor Abbas II, he did not go to the city wall to watch the battle.

This situation is really a bit too dangerous.

The artillery is not eye-catching. If he really encounters some accidents, the entire Persian army will inevitably be in chaos.

To be on the safe side, Abbas II stayed in the palace.

But this does not mean that he is not concerned about the situation of the war.

On the contrary, Abbas II was very concerned about the situation and ordered people to report it immediately whenever there was any situation.

He even ordered people to drop the palace guards and most of them helped defend the city.

This battle was undoubtedly a crucial battle for the Persian Empire. If it was won, it would likely replace the position of the overlord of the Ottoman Empire and completely change the country's destiny.

So Abbas II was very excited and wanted to ensure that everything was foolproof.

...

...

At the same time, the main force led by Li Dingguo has already attacked.

When you have deduced a plan countless times, you don’t have to worry about details.

Because you have already considered almost all the details.

Even you have already thought about what your opponent will react when you meet you.

In this case, you must be the one who takes the initiative.

This is true for the Ming army.

Li Dingguo led all cavalrymen, although the number was not large, only 20,000 people.

But these 20,000 people are veterans who have experienced many battles, and have fought countless tough battles with Li Dingguo.

It can be said that they are the elite among the elite and the people Li Dingguo trusts the most.

With them by Li Dingguo's side, Li Dingguo was very confident.

What he has to do now is to disrupt the Ottoman siege rhythm and cut off their formation.

Next, the Ottomans will be in chaos, and the Ming army among the three acropolis can also attack and attack the main Ottoman forces.

The whole plan is linked one by one, without any omissions.
