"Huh......? My lord, the Wind is a civilian ship, and there are foreign pirate ships chasing after it, should we fire at the pirate ship? Are you wrong......

The defenders of the fort couldn't believe their ears, and they had never heard that their own forts did not protect their own people, but helped foreign devils?

"Shut up... Then the French are you who you can shoot? You say that they are pirates, they are pirates? If you cause a diplomatic dispute, you will carry me around? Who will be responsible?"

"Since the Chengfeng is the industry of Lotte Foreign Bank, it is Xiao Letian's industry, the emperor and the queen mother have an order, and it is Xiao Lotian who is eradicated today...... You have so many questions, have you already surrendered to the enemy?"

Listening to the sound of a long knife coming out of its sheath, the group of cronies sent by Mailer held the long knife on the neck of the mouthy gunner, and said viciously.

"Go...... Hurry up and shoot me, otherwise you will defect to the enemy and commit treason, and Lao Tzu will immediately cut off your head..."

The shout in the gunner's head suddenly flowed, "This master, you dissipate your anger, I will fire the cannon, and I will fire the cannon immediately...... Listen to you, listen to your ......"

"Hey...... That's right, it's good to be obedient, come on, give them one of the people who set off the cannon, and remember the reward number of thirty taels of silver first......"

The war in the late Qing Dynasty was so realistic, as long as it entered a state of war, it was necessary to prepare a measured amount of silver for reward, and any military order must follow the silver, and it was difficult to move an inch without silver.

The herald sent a message, ran back and forth for more than 100 miles, hard work, reward. The stormtroopers chose a hundred men, which was a head-off job, and it had to be rewarded with money and cash. Even if the groom walks at night and gallops hundreds of miles to help, you have to have a little bit of silver, otherwise no one will be able to give you your life.

This reward silver is also divided into two kinds, one is to reward the silver, open the mouth is the silver of the white flower, directly stuffed into your arms, the general reward of silver is the need for people to work hard, such as charging into the battle of the white blade or something, this kind of money must be given in a real way.

And there is also a form of reward, called the reward, that is, as soon as the commander says it, there is a literate notebook behind him, and this kind of silver will be given after the end of the war.

And this kind of reward is more operable, there are those who do not admit the account in the later stage, there are also discounts, and even when the reward is cashed, the price can be bargained, and a qiē is the same as doing business.

As soon as the defenders heard that it was a reward, their hearts suddenly faded, if they won this battle, maybe the reward could be a little, but if they lost, this group of dogs would not admit it.

Everyone turned their backs and began to operate the artillery, looking at each other with the eyes you know, and the hearts of the people have a scale, since the establishment of the Special Economic Zone, the life of the people of Tanggu is good or bad, and everyone has the same mirror in their hearts.

Not only that, from the moment Lotte and the Torture Hall were established, the garrisons and local officials around Tanggu had been bought off in large quantities, and the Torture Hall had developed a large number of loyal and meticulous works, and it can be said that everything that happened in the northern land of the Manchu Qing Dynasty could not be hidden from Xiao Letian's eyes.

I'm afraid of anything, Xiao Lotian has never been in arrears when he spends money, and whoever has a foreign bank in the brothers' family has a lot of heart. Look at the group of stupid birds behind them, one by one, they pretend to be wolves with big tails, but the result is either scolding or rewarding, and there is no dry goods at all.

No wonder everyone said in private, you are a person with Xiao Cheng, and you are just a dog slave if you follow Daqing.

“…… Two ...... of the projectile pack Buckshot ...... Why didn't you clean the chamber of the gun? Waste, and start again...... Clean the chamber first...... Propellant pack ......"

The cronies sent by Mailer are not fools, they look like foreign grinders, and they raise their whips angrily and snap them twice. The rapping gunner's back and shoulders were crumbled.

"Shhh...... Oops, how do you hit someone...... How do you hit people..."

"Little rabbit, don't I understand that you are the master? You are a foreign grinder...... If you don't fire a bag of cigarettes, I'll cut off your head......"

"Oh my lord, the operation of this shore defense cannon is very complicated, and it has not been used for six years, who knows if there is any danger...... Oops... Don't fight, I'll shoot it, I'll shoot it......"

The gunner looked at the Chengfeng that was getting closer and closer on the sea, and when he saw Yihong, he quickly rubbed his eyes and pretended to be in the sand, and said secretly in his heart, "Brother, I'm sorry, I have to live... Artillery ......"

Boom Boom Boom ...... The three coastal defense cannons exploded on the ground with a thunderclap, and the coastal defense cannons, which had not been silent for six years, did not shoot shells at the enemy, but at their own compatriots.

The people sent by Mailer didn't understand the power of the shore artillery at all, and thought that it was more limited than the red-clothed general's cannon of the Beijing Firearms Battalion, and they didn't open their mouths or plug their ears.

As for the defenders at Dagukou, it was too late to hate them, so how could they have been warned in advance? These three explosions shocked the arrogant officer at that time.

"Ah...... Yes...... Ah......" The officer's knife that was stunned also fell to the ground, and the horsewhip didn't know where it was thrown, so he knew that he was stupid when he opened his mouth.

At this time, Niu Duofu on the sea was also frightened by the sudden sound of cannons: "What's the matter? Why is Dagukou firing at us? The enemy is behind us......

There was a bang, and the water splashed into the sky, and the defenders of the fort still had a conscience, and the three guns were deliberately missed.

"Hurry, hurry...... Hurry up, just rush out of the battery's firing angle, and ...... faster" The people on the dock of the SAR were full of voices, and even those foreign engineers were anxious, and countless black craftsmen waved their hats and sweated profusely.

"Riding the Wind...... Hasten...... Chengfeng ...... Accelerate ......" At the end, there was only this one shout left on the dock, and everyone's feelings were mobilized by the battleship on the sea.

The forts at Dagukou kept firing, starting with three, and slowly becoming four, five, and ten...... Even if the defenders deliberately let out water, as the number of guns increased and the distance closer, the Wind Ride became more and more dangerous.

The two captains of the French army, Karl and Molde, were now standing at the bow of the ship and laughing from ear to ear, "God bless us...... Aha, this group of Chinese is killing themselves... This stupid people...... Aha..."

"Prepare for battle, boys, even if we can't catch this cunning sailboat, we can blow him up and sink him in the docks...... The Chinese are really a great nation, and their greatest prolific thing is the great traitor..."

There was jubilation on the two frigates, followed by two pirate flags, and they showed their true identities to the whole of Tanggu.

The Windrider pierced the waves and galloped towards the docks, the jets of water from the explosion on both sides of the hull three or four stories high, crashing on the deck like a torrential rain in the Pacific Ocean.

All the soldiers were unwilling to be confused, they couldn't understand why the Dagukou battery would fire at them, even if this ship was the property of Lotte & Co., even if they were all the private troops of the prime minister, but everyone was Chinese, yellow-skinned and black-eyed Chinese, how could they help the foreigners to beat their own people?

An air of grief and indignation blocked people's hearts, but now is not the time to condemn, the pier is already close at hand, and people have even seen that several small guns on the dock of the SAR have adjusted their muzzles and are preparing to fire.

Seeing their own artillery, the sailors' hearts warmed, and the soldiers and even the workers on the dock had already begun to distribute weapons, and the people waited for the wind to enter the port, and then beat the group of foreign devils.

Five hundred, the Chengfeng is now only five hundred meters away from the dock, and a little further advance can escape the range of the Dagukou Battery, and hope is at hand.

The moment the good luck ran out, just when the Chengfeng was about to enter safe waters, the last round of shelling at Dagukou finally had a result.

In the roar of the cannon, a solid lead bullet drilled into the port side of the Chengfeng at a tricky angle, and a huge breach was blown out with a bang, and the entire hull was poured down.

"No ......," exclaimed on the dock, and people watched as the rolling waves surged into the hull, and soon the hull of the Chengfeng began to capsize to the left.

Niu Duofu's tears flowed out, and he saw Lingshan at the last moment, how could he still fall short, "Unwilling, Lao Tzu, I'm not reconciled......"

At the moment when he smashed the board with his fist, the sailors on the deck suddenly exclaimed, "Captain, look at ......" Following the direction of his finger, Niu Duofu spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

"Prime Minister, I'm sorry for you......" After speaking, he took out his pistol and put it on his temple, and the sailors around him rushed over like crazy, snatched the pistol and firmly controlled the captain.

"You let me go, I can't live, all this money is for the big things the prime minister said, I'm doing evil..."

On the port side of the Chengfeng, at that big breach, the shell just now not only smashed open the hull, but also smashed into the silver mountain in the cargo hold, and the silver mountain, which was held together by iron wire, was now pouring into the sea.

It was an industrial silver ingot that was cast like a brick, each of which exuded the unique brilliance of silver, and these were all newly minted silver ingots in Mexico, without the slightest oxidation reaction, but the silver ingots in the cellars of the Qing Dynasty were much more beautiful, and people could even clearly see the eagle logo on the silver ingots.

"I cāo... Fuck Xiao Letian is so rich......" As soon as the Qing Demon Officer on the Dagukou Fort loosened his hand, the telescope fell to the ground and shattered.

The black eyes saw the white silver, everyone was stupid, how could they have seen such a magnificent scene, the Chengfeng was loaded with a total of 60,000 silver ingots, even if each silver ingot was only fifty taels, the wealth of this ship had reached 3 million taels of silver.

At that moment, Tanggu Wharf was illuminated by the light of silver, so much so that after the war, it was renamed Baiyin Bay.

"Don't stop me...... Lao Tzu, I'm going to touch the silver...... "The Qing demon who lost his mind and went crazy forgot that he was on a high fort, and he rushed forward with his legs, but a dog gnawed on the mud and rolled down, asking for money and not dying, it is estimated that he is the one who said.
