Chapter 978: Rainy Night Raid
Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Zhibao thought that they were not suitable to launch a siege in such weather, so they took it for granted that the Beijing camp would not launch a surprise attack on the camp in Fuzhou Town in such bad weather, and even now the Beijing camp is celebrating in a big way, with such heavy rain, where do you have to worry about the night battle?
Joy and sorrow, Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Zhibao were so happy because they thought that the Beijing camp would be defeated without firearms, so they were so careless.
When it was ugly, the rain still showed no signs of stopping, mixed with the sound of the wind, and it was pitch black outside, as Cha Zhu said, it was the best time to kill people and set fires.
Cha Xuan led the two thousand cavalry of the Beijing camp, quietly rushed out of the camp, and went straight to the camp of Fuzhou Town, now it is the most sleepy, the deepest sleep moment, almost all the soldiers of Fuzhou Town have fallen asleep, and even the vigilance is gone, such a heavy rain, who is still patrolling in the rain?
The cavalry of Cha Bolt slowly advanced forward, knowing that it was less than two miles away from the camp in Fuzhou Town, so he suddenly accelerated his speed and attacked with all his might, two miles away, even if the road was muddy, for the cavalry, it was only a matter of three or two minutes, and it was there in the blink of an eye!
In an instant, the cavalry had already arrived at the gate of the big camp in Fuzhou Town, and the soldiers in Fuzhou Town were still asleep, and the dull sound of horses' hooves, in their opinion, thought it was the thunder coming from outside?
It wasn't until the cavalry swept away the antlers in front of the camp gate and rushed into the camp that the soldiers of Fuzhou Town woke up from their sleep.
The first to wake up was Zheng Zhilong, at the beginning Zheng Zhilong also thought it was a muffled thunder, but the muffled thunder is not as dense and coherent as it is, not good, it is the sound of horses' hooves!
Zheng Zhilong listened carefully again, and finally distinguished, turned over and sat up from the bed, put on his helmet, picked up the long sword, and shouted: "Zhibao, Zhibao, Jiro!" ”
Both of them were in the tent, and when they heard Zheng Zhilong's shout, they stood up one after another.
"Father, what's wrong?"
"What's wrong? Don't hear the sound of horses' hooves? Hurry up and clean up, the enemy is attacking the camp, the enemy is attacking the camp! ”
Zheng Zhibao also reflected, shouted urgently, and as he spoke, he had already rushed out of the handsome tent with a big knife on the side!
Sure enough, in the night, a group of cavalry had rushed into the camp, and as soon as the machetes of the cavalry of the Beijing camp went down, the tent was cut open, and then, a burst of dense gunfire came out!
Bang bang bang, the whole battalion was alarmed by the screams and roars one after another, and the soldiers rushed out of the tents in panic!
"What? How could this musket still fire at this time? ”
Zheng Zhi scolded his mother angrily, the heavy rain is like a note, this arquebus can still be fired, it is really incredible, what kind of fire twist can't keep burning!
"Enemy attack, enemy attack, fight, come, fight!"
Zheng Zhibao roared angrily, ran to the side of the war horse, and started to sign his war horse, Zheng Zhilong, Tagawa Nanazaemon and other generals also ran out, ready to get on the horse to fight!
Cha Xuan, who rushed to the front, spotted Zheng Zhibao who was roaring and commanding the battle at a glance, and raised his flintlock musket with his hand.
Bang!
The unlucky Zheng Zhibao didn't understand what was going on, he was shot right in the door, turned over and fell off the horse!
Cha Zhu's martial arts are worse than Qin Mufeng's, but the marksmanship of this musket, Qin Mufeng can't catch up even if he shoots a horse, it's really a sharpshooter with a hundred shots!
"Zhi Leopard!"
Zheng Zhilong was shocked and shouted: "Come on, hurry, save people!" ”
Several soldiers rushed over and carried Zheng Zhibao back, at this time, Zheng Zhibao's face was covered with blood, and a hole was opened in his brain, this is lead bullet, not to mention that it is a lead bullet, that is, an ordinary bullet hit the brain is nine deaths, not to mention a poisonous lead bullet? Zheng Zhibao's eyes were dull, and what he saw was that he couldn't live.
Zheng Zhilong's eyes were split, Zheng Zhibao was his own brother, his right-hand man, he didn't expect that he had just set out on the battlefield and died on the battlefield in the first battle, how could he not break his liver and intestines?
"Come on, besiege with all your might, you must annihilate all this cavalry, attack, attack!"
Zheng Zhilong was furious and began to command the army to fight, however, in the middle of the night, he was suddenly attacked by the cavalry, and the soldiers of Fuzhou Town were caught off guard, and they were beaten without the power to fight back, even if it was the cavalry combat power of the Beijing camp, it was not something that these panicked Fuzhou Town soldiers could resist, and the unarmed soldiers were directly cut to the ground by the cavalry.
Even if there are only 2,000 cavalry in Beijing today, they are still rampant in the camp of Fuzhou Town, and the soldiers of Fuzhou Town are beaten to the ground.
Fortunately, Fuzhou Town has strong troops, and the weather is too bad, even if the cavalry suddenly kills, they will not be able to give full play to the speed of the cavalry.
As soon as Zheng Zhibao died, Zheng Zhilong was completely confused, his anger had blinded his reason, and he frantically gathered the army, seeing that a force had been gathered, especially the cavalry of more than 1,000 people, had gathered one after another, and began to launch a counterattack against the cavalry of the Beijing camp, Zheng Zhilong directly ordered to counterattack with all his might, and he didn't care about any tactics at all, it was to attack!
The battle of Cha Shu was really beautiful, and in less than half an hour, the battle caused thousands of casualties to the soldiers of Fuzhou Town, killing Fuzhou Town in horror, and there was no longer the spirit that he had just arrived.
However, Cha Xuan also understood that once Zheng Zhilong gradually stabilized the situation, he would have to retreat, and with only two thousand cavalry, he had not yet had the strength to completely defeat Fuzhou Town, and there was not much time left for him.
When Cha Xuan was thinking about retreating, in the distance, there was another dense shouting and killing, and due north, a large army had already been killed!
This time it was Xu Peiming who came, Xu Peiming selected 10,000 troops in the Beijing camp, followed all the way from the back of the investigation, and covered up.
It's not that Zhao Zhenghang and Xu Peiming are worried about the safety of Cha Zhu, but Zhao Zhenghang thinks that in this battle, Cha Zhu will definitely kill the entire Fuzhou Town, if the infantry follows and fills up a fire, then Fuzhou Town will really be abolished, Zhao Zhenghang left to watch the house, Xu Peiming rushed up again from behind!
Offensive! Tonight is to completely defeat Fuzhou Town!
