Chapter 1328: Joining the Sands Fleet (Overhaul)

Peng Yulin was rescued from death by Mai Ke, and since then he has been convinced by Mai Ke. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Like all those who were saved by the Spirit's Movement.

All of them have one thing in common, that is, they have broken ties with their predecessors.

Then he followed Mai Ke to do it, without any second thoughts.

This is because in addition to curing them of physical ailments, the movement of the spirit rhino also changed their lives.

They are already Christians by nature, whether they have gone through those baptismal procedures or not.

They are already citizens of the kingdom of heaven, so naturally they will not go back to get involved in the previous.

What makes them different from those veterans of the Heavenly Army is that they are very familiar with their former colleagues and understand the situation very well, because they are familiar with the matter of attacking the city and pulling out the village, and they have completed the task very efficiently.

After cleaning the waters of the north and south banks of the Jiu River, Peter traced the river upstream, aiming directly at the Han Dynasty.

At the same time, the Yanggao Jinsha River Sword Team, which had accumulated strength in Hanzhong, also poured out of the nest, and then went down the river from the upstream to attack the Han Dynasty.

At the same time, the naval fleet of the Yellow River and the Yellow River basin commanded by Zhang Yuan also gathered together to participate in the general battle of the three formations of the Han Dynasty.

The defensive strength of the three formations of the Han Dynasty is essentially the gathering of the last military force of the Qing army.

In addition to the combination of the Manchu naval division and the army, there was also a foreign gun team composed of British.

The leader of this foreign gun team is none other than the young and vigorous Gordon.

If history were to go by the way, Gordon wouldn't be able to come over until he was thirty years later.

However, due to the rapid development of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, both the Manchu army and the mercenaries organized by foreigners were defeated and defeated by the Heavenly Kingdom.

The British army that was always victorious was also beaten into a constant army.

Especially the captain of this winning army, who dies very frequently, and the opportunity is to die in less than a month.

These deceased predecessors included Stevenley, Wall, Bai Qiwen and other famous victorious captains in history.

In this situation of repeated defeats, and with the death of those older captains, Gordon, a junior who was not afraid of tigers, was pushed to the front line.

Not to mention, he is indeed better than his predecessor.

He held on to the captaincy for three months without dying!

However, now that he saw the three huge fleets outside, he deeply felt that his days were over.

Defending the three towns of Juehan, his responsibility was to assist Yang Dianbang, the former governor of Caoyun.

All the Cao Canal channels were occupied by the Celestial Army, and the Manchu Qing court, which used Cao to transport grain, basically did not exist, because the center of the court, including the emperor and the sixth master, did not know where to go.

Also, if he wants to carry it, at least he must have a ship and a person to travel.

These were basically scattered by the Celestial Army.

Some of the remaining ships and personnel were brought here by him, and he himself was also arranged to sit in the three towns of Juehan, and his position did not change, he was still the governor of Caoyun.

However, he is now purely a bird of fright.

If it hadn't been for Gordon's insistence, he would have abandoned the city and fled.

As for where to go, he really didn't know what to do.

The biggest possibility is to run to Changsha.

It is said that the emperor also intended to run in that direction.

If there is still some hope, Zeng Guofan is their only hope.

But it seems to be too late to run.

In addition to the three-way water division, there are also countless heavenly army and army, blocking every way out.

He also knew that this was the only important stronghold of the Manchu Qing Dynasty except for Hunan, and if the three towns of Juehan fell into the hands of the enemy, then the Hunan army would really become an island, without any foreign aid force, and at the same time, there would be no way to escape.

In the past, although after the occupation of the Jiujiang River by the Heavenly Army, it was practically impossible to escape from there to the open sea, but at least Juehan could be a buffer point.

Yang Dianbang knew this overall situation, so he was naturally very disappointed, so he had no hope of success in defending the three formations.

It's Gordon, he doesn't know much about the overall situation, and he hasn't personally suffered too many defeats, so his fighting spirit is very high.

His victorious army was indeed at its most prosperous now, with a full strength of 10,000 men, all of which were the most advanced equipment of that era.

It was also the last struggle of the Manchu rulers, who did not hesitate to spend a large amount of silver taels to buy advanced weapons.

At the same time, Gordon also has one of the biggest dependencies, which is their British hometown, which will support him anytime and anywhere.

As long as he needed it, those British nobles would send more warships and personnel.

Yang Dianbang was also very powerful, and at that time he made Gordon a city defense commander and gave him all the arrangements and combat rights.

As for the Heavenly Army, it is natural that Zhang Yuan is the commander-in-chief, and Peter is the vanguard!

Zhang Yuan gave him a task, first to persuade that Gordon to surrender.

Peter was already loud, and after receiving the order, he immediately named Gordon to come out.

But he didn't have the patience to wait, and before he could come out, he began to shout out.

Gordon, who is young but very gentlemanly, will not leave halfway through.

In my heart, you don't care what you listen to anyway, do you?

"Little Gordon! Come, listen to the eldest brother enlighten you! You have thousands of broken ships and hundreds of thousands of defenders, if we hadn't sent mercy, just one round of artillery fire would have wiped you to ashes! Even if your winning army of 10,000 is powerful, wait for another round, it will still be over! It is better to listen to my brother's words, surrender your guns, and I will ensure that you will be promoted and make a fortune and earn a lot of money! If you are happy, I will give you a captain or something! The manly husband is only in the vast ocean, and An can be in a corner of peace, like an old hen, only jumping on the land?"

Gordon's heart shook when he said this.

He really had a dream of sailing on the sea.

Naturally, he had such an expectation, otherwise Peter would not have said it.

Because he had a good understanding of "Gordon".

However, he must still hold on to taking people's money and eliminating disasters for people!

Besides, he is a very righteous person.

So he replied to Peter, "Thank you, big brother, for your advice! But I am sorry that I have been commanded to do things faithfully." ”

Before the words fell, Zhang Yuan ordered: "Open the cannon!"

The fleets opened fire in unison, like a landslide!

Then Zhang Yuan ordered again: "Stop shooting!"

Gordon almost didn't cry when he saw it.

It turned out that the walls of each of the three towns of Wuhan had been blown down in four or five places!

Half of those rare ships were blown up!

And the ones that were blown up were the best.

He looked at his victorious army.

This time I was really crying.

A 100-meter square, half on the left, was all blown up.

Only the right half is intact!

At that time, they were immersed in the scene, and when they saw the tragic situation of their comrades, they were all stupid.

At that moment, they understood in their hearts that it was not that they had the ability to avoid death, but that the other party's subordinates were merciful!

Otherwise, no one will be left behind!

They knew, and Gordon knew better.

The death of half of the people is a warning to him and a punishment for him.

When everyone is dead, what is the meaning of loyalty?

So when Peter was hippie again, he acted as a big brother and asked him if he would surrender.

Gordon decisively knelt down!
