Tu Dabai's answer made Niu Lu really a little desperate, unless he took a long detour to get the rescuers. But in terms of time, it was too late. Unless Haizhou can hold out for at least three days. But is this possible?

As he expected, the Gaizhou Ming army didn't care about it, but just buried their heads in the road, and rushed to the border of Haizhou earlier than the estimated time. When Cao Wenzhao, who was resting here, heard the news, he immediately led the army to greet him, looked at so many grain trucks, and said with a smile: "It's finally waiting for you!" ”

Li Dingguo was by his side, but Gao Yingyuan didn't come with the grain truck, so he didn't know the situation along the way, but now that he saw it, he was relieved, everything was within the scope of the plan.

The leader of the Ming army in Gaizhou came not the main general Cao Bianjiao, but the former family member of Cao Wenzhao, the brother Zhao who has been accompanying Cao Bianjiao, of course, there is also the supervising army. According to the emperor's will, after the two armies converged, they obeyed the command of Cao Wenzhao's general army.

Cao Wenzhao did not hesitate and immediately ordered the whole army to march towards Haizhou City.

When it was almost evening, the Ming army suddenly appeared outside Haizhou City, and the alarm gong at the head of Haizhou City was suddenly frightened.

Cao Wenzhao didn't care about the head of the city, but just ordered the Ming army of Gaizhou to bombard the city gate. He himself stood on the side, but he wanted to see what kind of powerful method the artillery battalion of the new army was? Because when this plan was originally set, there was a controversy as to whether the artillery was sent out of the Guanning Army or from the Gaizhou New Army.

At that time, Sun Chengzong and Cao Wenzhao believed that Gaizhou should defend the city, and the artillery was not easy to move. On Ningjin's side, because of the containment of the friendly forces in Gaizhou, it is impossible for Jianyu to attack now, so it is better to send artillery from Guanning.

However, Emperor Chongzhen vetoed this proposal, saying that artillery was a technical branch, and the new army's artillery was more skilled than any other gunner in the Ming army. And the attack on Haizhou was to seize time, so he made a decision to send artillery from Gaizhou.

This made Cao Wenzhao a little disagreeable, he watched as after the military order was handed down, the artillery of Gaizhou unloaded the Hongyi cannon from a big car, and used some tools he had never seen to measure the distance, placing the Hongyi cannon, what oblique angle, how much gunpowder, etc., constantly reported from their mouths, and his comrades were quickly cooperating and responding, seeing that Cao Wenzhao had an unfathomable feeling.

It didn't take long for the three Hongyi cannons to be placed in a straight line at the city gate, outside the range of the archers at the head of Haizhou City. At the same time, the artillery commander told Cao Wenzhao: "Marshal, everything is ready, please give the order to open fire!" ”

Cao Wenzhao estimated the time, and it seemed that the preparation time was much faster than that of the Guan Ning gunners. He was a little curious, and immediately ordered the cannon to be fired. He wondered how long it would take for the gates to be breached.

With a "boom", a Hongyi cannon let out a deafening roar, and an iron egg smashed into the brick wall above the city gate, smashing a big pit, bricks and clods of earth or something, and fell down a lot with a bang.

The Jianyu at the head of the city seemed to be frightened, and the noisy movement was clear, and the Ming army could hear it clearly. However, the artillery commander seemed to ignore it at all, and he was releasing some technical terms, and his subordinates immediately began to adjust the elevation angles of the remaining two Hongyi cannons. Then an order was given, and this time it was two Hongyi cannons that fired together.

"Boom" twice, and when these two roars were heard in my ears, I saw that two iron eggs had smashed into the gate of Haizhou City. The city gate was like paper paste, and suddenly two big holes came out, and faintly, I heard a scream from the other side of the city gate.

"Awesome, that's accurate!" When Cao Wenzhao saw it, he couldn't help but praise. The first time the cannon was a test run, he knew it. There are also in the Guanning army, but it is generally necessary to test the cannon about three times before it is more accurate. It is far inferior to these new army artillery in front of them, just one test run, and the next shot can accurately hit the target.

It was foreseeable that the city gate would be breached soon, and Cao Wenzhao, after praising it, immediately ordered the whole army to prepare.

So, with the help of his comrades, the heavily armored iron rider began to prepare. They will break a way for the army to enter the city as soon as the gates are smashed.

"Boom Boom"

The three Hongyi cannons roared angrily, and there were suddenly three more big holes in the Haizhou City Gate. At this time, it can be seen that the city builders seem to want to block the city gate hole, but after the iron egg smashed through the city gate, the kinetic energy contained in it continued to tear apart anything that was in the way, leaving the city gate hole dead and wounded.

When the artillery of the new army was preparing for the next shelling, Cao Wenzhao suddenly found that the prisoners on the city head were scattered and ran away, and a lot of flags were lost. There were fireworks coming out of the city, and it was already in chaos.

When Cao Wenzhao saw it, he immediately made a decision and immediately issued a military order: "As soon as the cannon sounds, the whole army will attack the city!" ”

"Boom Boom"

The gate of Haizhou City was completely smashed, and at the same time, the Iron Armor Heavy Horse took the lead and launched a charge towards Haizhou City. Li Dingguo, who had been standing silently beside Cao Wenzhao, had seen the siege power of the Hongyi cannon and the importance of firearms for a while, which left a deep impression on his young mind. He stepped back a distance, looked through the artillery position, and at the moment when the cavalry entered the city gate, he pressed the button to take a photo, and a photo was privately chatted to the temporary group, and at the same time said: "The city of Haizhou is broken, it will take half an hour!" ”

When Liu Wang saw it, he immediately told Sun Chengzong.

"Hahaha, Haizhou is recovered, Daming has turned to the offensive, and Jianyu should be uncomfortable!" Sun Chengzong laughed, and at the same time said to the group of civil and military generals gathered in the hall to wait for the news, "This time, our Guan Ning Army can be regarded as a great achievement, we are not allowed to leave tonight, so we will have a drink with the old man!" ”

When Gao Yingyuan saw it, he immediately told Cao Bianjiao and Feng Dehua, who were waiting.

"Hahaha, look, the artillery battalion of our new army has not weakened its prestige, it must have surprised my uncle!" Cao Bianjiao said to Feng Dehua with a smile.

When Wei Mulan saw it, she immediately told the governor of Denglai and his generals who had been waiting. There is nothing to do here in Jinzhou, and when they heard that Haizhou was hit, they naturally gathered here and waited for the live broadcast.

"Hahaha, it's really good, next, our Dongjiang Army must also work hard!" Lu Xiangsheng laughed when he heard this, and asked the many generals in the hall.

Emperor Chongzhen was also online, and after seeing the photo, he immediately said: "It's a good job, continue to execute it as planned!" ”

After finishing speaking, he was in a very good mood, and after quitting the chat group, he didn't care about the people around him, and hugged Tian Guifei, who was looking at the scenery on both sides of the strait, and kissed him fiercely.

Tian Guifei was coldly kissed like this, she was startled at first, and then immediately blushed her neck, blushed, and complained coquettishly: "Your Majesty, look at it!" ”
