Chapter 255: Let you see the power

Five huge ships appeared in a row on the Saigon River, and suddenly Fan Wenshen's face was pale, trembling and speechless, and a bunch of Jiading City officers around him also showed desperate looks.

In the eyes of later generations, a naval warship with a displacement of 14,500 tons can only be called a sea grasshopper, and it is not qualified to be called a warship!

But in this era, a third-class battleship of 14,500 tons, that is, as high as a mountain, as strong as a city wall, is full of visual oppression!

The reason why it's five and not eight is because Jean. After measuring the hydrological conditions, Wilson proposed to let only the battleships enter, and the three-masted fast battleships only had one deck gun, and the caliber was not large, so there was no need to enter.

However, these five battleships were enough to make Fan Wenshen and the generals of the Xishan Dynasty desperate, and the cannons on the east bank of the Saigon River at Anqing Fort had been blown up by themselves.

The cannons of Gia Dinh City on the west bank of the Saigon River have also been bombarding the Nam Nguyen army occupying Anqing Fort for more than half an hour, and now there are not many that can still fire, and the caliber is also small, so it can't compare with these battleships on the river!

Therefore, the Jiading City of this meeting is almost the same as the previous Anqing Fort, and there is no other choice but to stand and be artillery.

"Boom!" The first to fire was the third-class battleship Deep Sea Shark, 36 heavy guns fired together, and the largest caliber reached 36 pounds, which was extremely terrible in this era, which was not at all comparable to mortars and 6-pound and 9-pound field guns!

A burst of smoke rose, and black cannonballs splashed towards Jiading City, and the thirty-six naval guns that fired at about the same time actually fired a similar effect to scattered bullets, and the walls of Jiading City were immediately smashed and trampled.

Immediately after that, the third class battleship Medusa fired, although the Medusa was weaker than the Deep Sea Shark, also had 32 guns on each side, and the largest caliber reached 36 pounds.

When it finished firing, the Deep Sea Shark, which was turning its hull, aimed at Jiading City with the more terrifying 36-pounder cannon in the bow, which was more suitable for bombarding motionless targets like castles than long-barreled guns.

β€œbang!” An earth-shattering roar sounded, and with only one shot, the city gate building on the Taiping Gate of the East Gate of Jiading City was gone, the bricks and stones were splashed, and several generals were lifted into the air like rag dolls.

"Taifu! Let's go! Let's go from the West Gate, let's go to Houjiang first, where the Zhenla people have received the favor of the King of Beiping, and then plan the future when they get there! Fan Wenren and a few guards set up Fan Wenshen and ran to the city.

Fan Wenshen's luck is good, he is not on the Taiping Gate, otherwise he would have to kill him just now!

However, everyone was frightened by the huge firepower of the Western-style battleships on the river, and everyone knew that Jiading City would definitely not be able to hold it.

Fan Wenshen was still yelling and saying that he wanted to live and die with Jiading City, but his clansmen and cronies didn't care about this, they set up Fan Wenshen, took a small number of guards and salutes, and quickly fled from the west gate of Jiading City.

The bombardment on the river continued, and the total number of artillery pieces of all kinds was close to 300 guns, and only one round was fired, and the entire Jiading City was already riddled with holes against this wall of the Saigon River!

On the Anqing Fort side, whether it was Ruan Phuc Anh or Wu Xing, Ruan Wencheng and others, they all opened their mouths wide, and they almost forgot to organize the army to cross the river!

It's that Ye Kai's mind is still much clearer, where is this special, the power is not as good as the howitzer of 155, not to mention all kinds of missiles and even nuclear weapons with more terrifying yields.

"Ah Shan, quickly raise the flag and let them cease fire, Colonel Gaston, you go with General Huang and them, go and prepare to cross the river to attack!"

Ye Kai hurriedly gave orders to Ah Shan and Gaston, and by the way, he patted Huang Fengde, who was also a little stunned beside him.

These losers are white-skinned, especially every time they fire a cannon is dozens of taels of silver, and more than 100 cannons are fired in a round, so the landlord's family has no surplus food!

"Kill the rebel thief, welcome the king!" In Jiading City, Fan Wenshen's front feet slipped away from the West Gate, and the local tyrants and gentry in Jiading City knew!

They organized the young men of each family, tied a red cloth on their right arm, brandished swords, spears and spears, took out the tender yellow Ruan flag symbolizing the Ruan family from under the bed, and howled and rushed out of the house to attack the city guards of the Xishan Dynasty.

Even some of the city guards of the Xishan Dynasty took off their military uniforms, went bare-chested, followed the howling crowd, and created their own rebellion!

Of course, these 'special talents' are all soldiers recruited locally by the Xishan Dynasty, and the soldiers of the Xishan Dynasty who really came from Xishan and other places can only retract to the Jiading Palace to fight the trapped beasts.

。。。。

Bangkok, Long Qiu, Nguyen Thi Ngoc Wan opened her eyes with a groan, and she felt as if her head was two big, and she felt a little ghosted when she looked at everything.

Suddenly, she was startled and slammed into her abdomen!

OK! OK! Her stomach was still round, and the moment she hit the pillar, she was really ruthless, she didn't hesitate at all, and she didn't leave any strength, how could she scare a ruthless person like Rama I, but now, what she was most afraid of was that something happened to the child in her belly.

"Sister, you're finally awake! Scared the hell out of me! What caught my eye was a pale little face, with a pointed chin, and the whole person was as thin as a bean sprout, although it was quite beautiful, but it always looked like it was lacking, as if something was missing.

This is Ruan's eldest sister Nguyen Ngoc Thi, who is a little pedantic and serious, although she is only six years older than Nguyen's Ngoc Wan, but Nguyen Ngoc Wan feels that this eldest sister is like her grandmother, but Nguyen Ngoc Hyun is the only person in the family who does not reject Nguyen Ngoc Wan so much.

The year before last, Nguyen Thi Ngoc Xiu's husband, the Qi Li Phuc Hang, died on Dieshi Island, and Nguyen Thi Ngoc Xiu then took off his colorful clothes and began to practice vegetarianism.

She thinks that her husband has done his best, and she should also observe the festival for her husband, and she has been vegetarian all year round and has been overly sad, Ruan's Yuxiu's body has always looked very thin.

"Sister! Where am I now? How did I get back? ”

"You..." After only saying one word, Ruan Thi Yuxiu couldn't help but have red eyes, and she sobbed twice before continuing: "Here in Longqiu Palace, you were sent back by the medical officer and palace maid of the Grand Palace, they said that you broke your head, you shed a lot of blood, and you have been sleeping since you came back!" ”

Suddenly, Ruan Thi Yuwan sat up, she shook her head slightly, and her thoughts slowly connected.

"Did the first king of Siam send anything? Did you say anything? ”

Ruan Shi Yuxiu nodded lightly, "The First King has sent a lot of precious medicinal materials, as well as a large number of rewards, saying that it is for you to recuperate from your injuries, and the messenger who came also said that we Quang Nam people in Longqiu can go, this is the grace you asked for in the Great Palace!" ”

Nguyen Thi Ngoc Van breathed a long sigh of relief, she was in a coma at the time and did not hear the words of Rama I, so she did not know that Rama I agreed to release the Quang Nam people of Long Qiu, and now that she heard the news, she knew that she had won the bet.

But then, Ruan Thi Ngoc Wan's heart rose again!

"Then why don't we set out now? What are you doing here? ”

Ruan Shi Yuxiu blinked his eyes suspiciously, "We have seventy or eighty thousand people here, and the rice we planted is about to be harvested, and you haven't woken up, how can you just leave?" Mother and Queen mean to wait until you wake up to deliberate! ”

"Foolish... Well, what else is this discussing? What does it matter if you get out of the tiger's mouth and escape from the big event of being born? ”

Ruan Thi Ngoc Wan almost blurted out the word stupid, he got up and shouted outside: "Come and change my clothes quickly, let the civil officials above the fifth grade, the captains of the guards, and the captains of the guards, go to the main hall to see me quickly, we must leave immediately!" ”

Ruan Fuying's highest civil official in Longqiu was a Langzhong of the fourth grade, and the military attache was Ruan Meng, the envoy of the clan and the soldiers and horses, that is, the third-class janissary who once escorted Ye Kai to Saigon, and now he is the envoy of the soldiers and horses from the third grade.

Ruan Thi Yuwan glanced at it, most of the civil officials were from Mingxiang, and she should be able to command.

Ruan Meng is a marginal clan, and he has also received Ye Kai's favor, and his third-grade soldiers and horses have slowly risen up by pulling He Xiwen's great merit with Ye Kai.

"Sell all the rice, houses, and furniture items that you can't take away from Longqiu to the Tang people in Sanping Street, take my letter and go to the shopkeeper of the Ye family Longsheng, he will arrange everything, tell him, I don't want money, as long as food, cloth, chariots and horses, and weapons, let him look at the price!"
