They require guns of sufficient calibre to breach the city wall defences, and these they have not got. They probably expect the Cantonese planes sooner or later to be able to drop bombs on these walls and make a sufficient-breach for the attackers to get through. Thirdly, they are attempting to tunnel the wall and blow it up, but have not got very far with it.
Passibly, the Yunnanese policy is to reduce the city to the point of surrender by merely beseiging it. At any rate, for the present ther is evidently to be delay in' attacking the city.
