Chapter 559: Civilians' Counterattack (8)
The fleet of the Haian Brigade fired a total of three rounds of artillery on the port side, and after a total of 24 threaded shells were fired, the city of Taizhou was suddenly covered with gunsmoke.
Eight warships, with the help of the north wind, formed a column on the wide river, and came to change sides in turn, because the river was much smoother than the sea, their movements were beautiful and stretched, and from a distance, they looked like a group of beautiful swans frolicking in the pond, but they were swans that could take the life of the Tartars!
When the whole battleship began to descend, the sailsailers tried to control the windward angle of the sails, so as not to let the battleship go too fast when it was downstream, and they were about to force into the dock to bombard, what a big target that wall was!
But before they could open fire, they could hear a small cannon sound on the city wall, and in the smoke!
Oh! It's exploded to this level, and it's still so resistant!
"Waste!"
"Waste!"
"Waste!"
Immediately after three rounds, Hu Zhennan had already patted the side of the boat at this time, he was jumping on the board, his eyes were red and noisy, it was too easy! It's so easy!
"I saw a bunch of Tartars blown up just now! What are you doing if you continue to fight like this, and you want me to wait for hot-blooded menβ€ do it?! β
Captain Sun Yu looked at this ancient young man who asked for blood, and said coldly: "Blood? When you are hot-blooded, you are in a hurry to fight with them now?! β
"I can sword the Tartars, and I can show my true heroic colors!"
Captain Sun Yu sneered, didn't bother to pay attention to him, and continued to observe and know.
These Tartars can still counterattack under such shelling, they are a little stronger than the Dutch back then!
Maybe they're used to winning? Psychologically powerful??
The second wave of shelling was even more effective, and when the smoke had passed, it was visible to the naked eye that there was silence on the pier. Those who had jumped onto the ship and were hoisting the sails did not know where they had gone, and they were all gone.
Captain Sun Yu carefully observed the city wall, there was nothing left, and now it was a ruin.
Hmph, I thought there were really heroes who weren't afraid of death!
At this time, Captain Kong Mingliang commanded the Haian Marine Corps to land and directly hit the dock!
One by one, the assault boats began to be hoisted down, and the Haian marines slid down the slings one by one, and as soon as the number of people was enough, the part-time paddlers began to paddle immediately.
The battleship still provided cover for shelling at this time, but at this time it was replaced by solid shells, and the guns were fired rhythmically, because the shells were to be recovered as much as possible.
Of course, they never had the luxury of using lead bullets, and other forces used lead bullets, because it was quite difficult to process cast iron shells of the right caliber in this time and space.
The strength of Hantang Group's machining is shown here.
Iron bullets are more cost-effective and more conducive to recycling!
Their thinking and behavior habits can be understood if they really understand the processing of leftovers by the small bosses of those start-up processing plants.
Those iron bullets knocked the city wall "boom", "boom", "boom", and the whole city wall seemed to be about to fall.
Dozens of assault boats rushed to the left and right of the pier like bows and arrows, and they quickly rushed to the river beach, quickly jumping from the bow of the assault boat to the river bank.
Then defend the shore in the form of stragglers, with standard movements and proper arrangement.
Captain Sun Yu put down the binoculars at this time and ordered: "Suspend the artillery, the machine gun crew prepares!" β
Machine gun crews on the side began to aim at the city gates.
At this time, the assault boats came back one after another to pull the second batch of landing personnel.
Hu Zhennan was inexplicably anxious, he jumped to his feet to follow.
Captain Sun Yu still didn't bother to pay attention to him, and picked up the binoculars again, observing Taizhou City after the artillery fire stopped, and he said coldly: "No, we can't specifically protect you......"
"Ahh
After Hu Zhennan shouted this sentence, he suddenly jumped into the river!
No way! Captain Sun Yu hurriedly lay on the side of the boat to watch him at this time.
Wouldn't it, jump into the river and commit suicide for this sentence?! The ancients were so youthful?!
At this time, I saw that Hu Zhennan immediately came out of the water, and I couldn't see what swimming posture he used to swim up, and the speed was quite fast, and he rushed towards the river bank with a crackle......
Captain Sun Yu pinched the brim of his hat at Hu Zhennan's back, thinking to himself, no matter what time and space it is, people are still young and good, but don't be too second-handed......
The people of the whole ship, no, the people of the entire fleet were watching Hu Zhennan's behavior, and suddenly someone shouted hello, and then there was a cheer!
Seriously, it's war!
After a few waves, the Haian Marine Corps was all ashore.
Captain Kong Mingliang also had to follow ashore.
Captain Sun Yu said: "Lao Kong, isn't the battle to engage the enemy commanded by the deputy captain? Don't break the rules......"
Captain Kong Mingliang said: "No, Lao Sun, think about it, if we always treat them as Ming people, when will they be able to merge into one?"
If a captain stands on a boat and watches his men fight, isn't that right? I'll blush with the team in the future, and besides, I'm not a high-ranking official...... This rule is not appropriate now! β
Captain Sun Yu didn't have to think about it to understand that what Captain Kong Mingliang said was right, he could only silently pat him on the shoulder and agree with his change.
After Captain Kong Mingliang arrived on the shore with his original equipment and two heralds, they were about to start organizing the siege.
In the battle plan, the first step was to take the city wall, occupy it, and use it as a base for advancement, trying to force the Tartars to escape from the city, or to attract them to take it back, which was excellent.
Amid three long brass whistles, the Haian Marines on both sides marched in a straggler line towards the city gate.
The captains of the eight warships were watching with binoculars as the Haian Marines attacked the Fengtai Gate, which had not yet closed.
The city of Taizhou was quiet except for the rising gunsmoke.
But it's also too quiet.
When the news of the pirate invasion of the Songmen Acropolis came, he quickly dispatched both land and sea forces to solve the problem before the arrival of the army.
Don't displease your master.
Next, he is going to start to rectify the military discipline of his subordinates, and it is indeed a little unusual, and he dares to snatch away the materials he wants to collect.
He sat in the Taizhou City Mansion, and the Taizhou Governor sat next to him, and they listened to the civil officials under him denounce the military discipline, and then suddenly came the news, saying that there were eight ordinary-looking monster ships heading straight to Taizhou City, which seemed to have bad intentions!
Ninghai General Yilde was so angry that he shot the case at that time, what was going on? Could it be that pirates dare to come to fight me in Taizhou!
His staff thought for a moment and said, "General, where can a pirate have eight monster ships of the same appearance?" Most of them are of different sizes, and they have lived in this Taizhou territory for more than 20 years, and they have never heard of them. Maybe it's the fleet that came to this province to do business, it's hard to say. β
Ninghai General Yilde was suddenly happy and said, "Just come to send me eight more warships!" I wish they were all loaded with rice! β
The staff member said, "But you have to guard against it......
Ninghai General Yild said indifferently: "It's easy to do, send a thousand people to the city gate, whether it is to carry goods for a while, or to defend, it must be enough." β
So Ninghai General Yilde began to listen to all kinds of exhortations from his officials.
Most of these people were literati summoned from Taizhou City, and with them, it was much more convenient for Ninghai General Yierde to do anything.
The first thing Ninghai General Yierde did when he first came to Taizhou City was to order the Confucian Temple to be repaired, and then went to worship Qi Jiguang's ancestral hall and monument.
These are all acts full of righteousness, and they are politically correct.
At this moment, he captured the hearts of many literati, who were willing to serve the Ninghai general Yierde, and all the work went smoothly.
Ninghai General Yild's heart is happy, the persuasion of this governor is really reasonable, and he doesn't have to spend a penny to win the heart of a literati.
Otherwise, what the master said at the beginning was right, not only will he be able to fight the country immediately, but he will also be able to manage the country immediately.
There are a lot of chores for the literati to do, and the steel knife is in my hands.
Ninghai's general Ilde promised that after the counterinsurgency was successful, he would pick up some good land and distribute it to them.
In this way, those literati became more conscientious and responsible.
Their advice to Ninghai General Yild was reasonable and useful, and they knew the truth here too well.
As they were discussing the land entering the port, they suddenly heard an explosion in the distance!
Ninghai General Ilde burst out, it's not good, it must be pirates attacking Taizhou, listening to this cannon, there are quite a few of them!
β*ββ¦β¦%#οΏ₯?? *ββ¦β¦β*οΌ β
He hurriedly walked out of the palace, and his heralds had already rushed to the barracks according to his request, and he ordered all the personnel to gather and rush to the two city gates in the southwest!
After all, Taizhou City is not big in this time and space, and the distance from the military camp to the city gate is not far, and when they were running forward, they encountered countless people running towards other city gates, and some blocked their progress.
Riding his own war horse, Ninghai's great general Ilde shouted: "*β......#! β
The axemen who ran in front immediately entered the crowd, and in a few moments they fell to the ground, and the panicked people immediately rushed into the small alley next to them.
The army began to move smoothly.
As they went, the second wave of artillery rang out again, followed by the sparse sound of shelling, and the earth seemed to shake.
Ninghai General Ilde raised his hand to signal the army to stop, he thought about it, these pirates have fierce artillery, if they go to the dock to fight them, I am afraid that they will suffer from them, it is better to ......
Ninghai General Ilde ordered: "*-......%?? #β*οΌ β
The Tartars immediately marched into the houses of the city gate district, and the archers went up to the roofs.
Ninghai General Yierde thought to himself, these pirates will not always fire cannons outside the city, they must have taken a fancy to the wealth of our Taizhou City and want to come in to grab a handful, shameless pirates, if you come in, this general will definitely want you to look good!
The two straggler lines outside Taizhou City will soon be approaching the city wall.
At this time, two archers suddenly poked out from the hollow enemy platform on the Fengtai Gate, and they opened their bows and shot, almost hitting the two team members, startling them.
The two men raised their guns and fired, but the two archers quickly retracted.
The rest of the team shot together, sparking all over the walls of the hollow enemy platform.
Captain Kong Mingliang looked at it, it's really good, this hollow enemy platform has been half defeated, and there are still archers hidden!
In the end, they did not know whether the two men had been hiding here to survive the shelling, or whether they had climbed up again after the shelling had stopped.
Captain Kong Ming looked at the distance, but it was only a hundred meters.
He unloaded the bazooka from behind him, loaded it with a rocket, and took a closer look.
He's back to his old ways.
