***************************************************************************

Before the cruiser departed, Holliman sent an inquiry to his current commander, Huang Kehui.

"Look, sir, those guys on the shore are the commanding officers of the Dutch fleet, and how fast they run! Shall we send someone to arrest them? ”

At this moment, Huang Binqing, who was deeply afraid of getting the letter, strengthened the defense of the artillery forts along the coast of Hangzhou, and Huang Kehui, who didn't want to stay here at all, shook his head and said, "Teacher Holliman, do you know why I respect you?" In the face of the Shenzhou Army, you will fight bravely. Even if you fail, it still shows that you are a good naval officer, as for them are all cowards without seeds, even if they are captured, it is useless, let them be!

Hearing the praise of the former student and the current boss, Holliman is really beautiful in his heart. Especially now that he is a member of the Shenzhou Army, it is indeed an exciting thing.

Because it represents dignity and wealth! His eyes glanced at the fleeing people on the shore again, and he said to himself, "Sir Huck and Lieutenant General Lemmo, I promise that we will meet again!" ”

Since all the battleships had completed the installation of their engines, all the battleships went up the Qiantang River without difficulty and came to the outer river of Hangzhou.

Here, the Qing army no longer has any more warships, some are only a few artillery forts deployed on the city wall of Hangzhou and along the river bank, and now the Huofeng-class cruisers of the Shenzhou army are fighting with them.

Among the artillery forts along the riverbank, there are only a dozen red-coated cannons, the reason is that Bolo and Zheng Zhilong, who only focus on sea power, do not trust Huang Binqing very much, and giving him a considerable status is nothing more than that he can take a knife from the back of Hangzhou's abdomen and round Bolo's Jiangnan strategy.

"Now that the daughter-in-law is married, the matchmaker has thrown over the wall! If it weren't for Huang Someone, would you be able to get it so easily? But now ......"

Now someone has only awakened to the sound of cannons like the drums of war, and it seems a little late. Alas! The human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, that is because no one has thought about the consequences of doing this, what other than to survive!

In this confrontation with the shore artillery fire, Huang Kehui did not ask for concentrated fire. He thought that there was no need to use such extreme firepower against the Qing army's artillery along the river, after all, these shells were costly, and if they were used too much, they would be a loss!

The rocket artillery, whose range was increased to a distance of 1200 meters, did not fire a salvo, but from time to time a long smoke shot a shell for accurate fire. The shells emitted their strange cries that had become famous all over the world, and plunged headlong into these newly built forts.

Naturally, these hastily built forts could not be compared with the firepower of the various forts in Macao built by the Portuguese. However, these cannons used armor-piercing shells obtained from the warehouse of the Shengwu army in Hangzhou, and their power was by no means comparable to that of the spherical shells of the Portuguese.

Huang Kehui and Holliman never imagined that they would encounter such artillery fire here. "Report to the sir, the battleship is damaged, the outer armor is penetrated."

The sound in the microphone made Huang Kehui and Holriman feel that they could hardly believe that the armor of the Huofeng-class cruiser would be penetrated, and that the shells that were pierced were from the Qing army, whose artillery skills they had never looked down upon.

The situation was quickly identified and reported quickly. It was the armor-piercing bullets made in Shenzhou City that the Shengwu Army bought. An armor-piercing bullet filled with lead inside a long iron shell. At that time, these shells were only used to provide the tiger squat cannons equipped by the Shengwu army to deal with the Qing army's chariots, but the shells fell into the hands of the Qing army because of the betrayal of those civilian ministers.

Of course, Huang Kehui knew the origin of these shells, because of the anger of the traitor, the scar on his face that added a certain heroic spirit showed a deeper red. Cursed in his mouth and gave orders.

"Fuck, fire a salvo with rocket artillery, and tear up all these fortifications for Lao Tzu!"

He was also a little annoyed in his own heart, why did he get into the eyes of money now, and become such a guy with an obvious copper smell, next time......

Fortunately, the place where this mistake was made is in Jiangnan, and it is very close to Shenzhou City. The replacement and repair of the damaged outer armor of the warship was very simple, and this cannon also prompted the "Armament Workshop" in Wenzhou City to quickly strengthen the armor.

This also made Huang Kehui understand one thing, that is, in the face of the enemy, how important it is to use the maximum possible firepower intensity at the first time to completely destroy all his resistance capabilities. Because shells are a cost, but the cost of casualties and damage to the ship is much greater.

The rocket artillery on the cruiser roared in time according to Huang Kehui's order, and greeted the artillery forts on the shore in a dense covering fire. The 100mm and 150mm guns covered the fire on the city according to the reports of the watchmen on the balloons. Thus, the battle of the guns of the cruisers on the shore, at the head of the city and in the middle of the river came to an end.

A high wall of dust and smoke rose from the shore due to the continuous sound of explosions. Through the telescope, you can see the once-majestic and proud cannons tumbling to the side of the violent explosions.

The gunners no longer knew where they had been hit by the dense shell fragments, and in any case there was no one to be seen on the bank of the river where the long cannons had been placed.

After Huang Kehui couldn't see through the smoke, he didn't know the result of the bombardment on the city wall. He waited quietly as the scouts on top of the balloon returned observations.

Soon a message came from the "microphone" that the lookout had received.

"According to balloon reconnaissance, the artillery on the enemy's city wall was completely destroyed, and now a small number of infantry reoccupy the city wall and prepare to resist, the resistance intensity is low, it is recommended that the landing operation can be started......!"

"Order, the fleet artillery is on standby, at any time according to the report of the balloon observer, fire suppression firing is carried out, and at the same time inform the landing group that the rangers can be sent ashore!"

The absence of sails freed up space on the deck of the Whale-class amphibious assault ship, and due to modifications and changes in mission, its ten 100mm guns were removed and two supporting 150mm guns were mounted on the forward and aft decks with a 360-degree rotating seat.

In the middle of the battleship, some cockpits, balloon bays, and a rocket launcher that can only be fired horizontally form a new superstructure, making the "whale-class amphibious assault ship" look a little bit like a modern warship.

The stout "Whale-class amphibious assault" ship opened the rear hatch, and a large number of "Exocet-class" landing craft entered and exited from the skateboard, forming a sparse formation above the wide river, and the first attack wave began.

This marked the beginning of the first street battle of the Shenzhou Army for the recovery of Hangzhou City!
