There weren't many expectations, but the flotilla was worse than expected. Eight pirate ships and four cargo ships formed this expeditionary fleet, not to mention the hull is old and the tonnage is small, the first few "big ships" in front of them are just a little larger than the fishing boats, this embarrassment makes Lin Feng very self-reproachful, since the first generation of this group of pirates surrendered to Cheng, he has not been to review this "navy", now it seems that he is indeed responsible for leadership, but at this time there is no room for picking, from the time of boarding the ship, everyone has accepted their fate, and they all think that this trip is definitely a test of survival.

Almost all the cabins were stuffed with people or supplies, and the small space forced Zhao Guangyuan to give up some of his horses and let some of the cavalry be converted into infantry, but despite this, he still could not solve this transportation problem. At this difficult moment, Rick unexpectedly made a big splash, at his suggestion, the pirates bought a large number of wooden door panels from a nearby fishing village, and spent a whole day making oppressive modifications to the cabin, dividing the original space into several layers from the height, and then the team sat down one by one in order, each person's territory was no more, no less, just enough to sit down and move their hands and feet a little, Lin Feng later found that this arrangement was indeed quite reasonable after some investigation, eating, urinating, Ventilation and other issues have been arranged in advance, although it is said that it is crowded, but it is finally installed, but looking at this small and crowded scene, Lin Feng always feels a little familiar, with this suspicious psychology, he carefully interrogated his military adviser, only then did he know that this Rick had run in the African dock for a period of time before, and he had great experience in the black slave trade, and he was extremely experienced in how to make a boat carry more people, and now he is naturally familiar with his old business.

Fortunately, the vast number of officers and soldiers did not complain about this, and the news that the Qing army was going to be slaughtered had already spread throughout the whole army, and it was naturally a better choice to go to sea by boat than to land on the ground, since they were fleeing for their lives, there was no way to do anything hard, and the unique perseverance and endurance of the Chinese nation made them silently accept this painful voyage.

Lin Feng's luck took a turn for the better at this time, when the fleet sailed into the sea, the wind direction changed suddenly, and the original southwest wind actually turned into a north wind, which increased the speed of the fully loaded sea ships several times, looking at the boundless sea water in all directions, Lin Feng wisely gave the command to ** Sheng, in this case, no matter from any point of view, these experienced pirates should have more say than him, not to mention that he himself has seen it in the past few days, the performance of these professionals is indeed good, Not to mention the skill of controlling the boat, and he is very familiar with the sea conditions, he sails directly into the deep sea, avoiding the sea field where all fishing boats operate.

The China Sea in the seventeenth century is really very lonely, sailing on the deep-sea route for so long, this time the fleet actually did not encounter any other ships, this is really a strange scene, you must know that another synonym of this era is the "Age of Discovery", the working people of the world have gone to the sea to pan for gold, but we Chinese honestly sit at home and plow the fields. The so-called starvation of the cowardly, support the bold, Lin Feng has a deeper understanding of this truth at the moment.

Although the road was smooth, there were still a lot of deaths, those pickers who were recruited in Fuzhou were a little better, in the end, they were seaside people, most of them had the experience of taking a boat, but those soldiers from Liaodong vomited up and down in droves, almost all of them lost their combat effectiveness, and this situation has a tendency to spread and expand, looking at this situation, Lin Feng's heart is extremely anxious, it seems that if he does not reach the destination, then this army may collapse.

When Lin Feng and Zhou Peigong were worried, **Sheng finally sent a voyage report, at this time, the fleet had reached a cold sea area in the Bohai Sea, and Tianjin Wei was not too far away.

It is really thanks to this era, although the Qing Dynasty has a Ming lord like Kangxi at this time, it obviously does not realize the importance of coastal defense, and the empire is also blank in terms of naval construction, except for a little defense at Dagukou, there is not even a beacon tower in other places, and the new Qing Empire has put all its energy into the war for hegemony on land, so that Lin Feng and his group can now choose the landing location at will.

Originally, Lin Feng took this matter very seriously, because according to the experience of later generations, landing battles were really a very troublesome thing, and choosing a good landing ground was the most important thing, but after asking about ** Sheng, he found that he was probably very wrong. According to ** Sheng's statement, this matter is actually very easy, and now the other party obviously has no defense, and it is impossible to have a blocking battle, as long as you act secretly at night, find a desolate and flat place and send it ashore in a small boat.

When everything was thought out, Lin Feng smiled dumbly, it seemed that he had really made a dogmatic mistake, there were thousands of people on his side, there were no war horses and no artillery, and even the baggage was pitiful, there was no need to establish a supply base, and there was no possibility of any backup, which was fundamentally different from Normandy. It was originally a job to break the net, and after going ashore, he died in the capital, and if he didn't succeed, he became a benevolent, how could there be any possibility of continuing to fight?!

So on a dark and windy night, the fleet quietly bypassed the mouth of Dagu, put down small boats in the area of the Ning River and sent experienced pirates to explore the way, and immediately began a large-scale landing operation after taking control of the fishing village by the sea, because the time spent adrift at sea was too long, the desire of the officers and soldiers for the land had reached an unparalleled level, at this time there was no need for any mobilization, the whole landing operation was carried out very quickly, just before the sky was just clear, all the combat troops had been safely transferred to the land, And began to repair and restore near the fishing village.

Because the whole army was dressed in Qing army uniforms, the people of the fishing village were greatly deceived, and they did not expect that this was an out-and-out rebel army, but thousands of people flocked to the scene was too spectacular, and the fishermen were inevitably panicked, and it was gratifying that the military discipline of this officer and army was not bad, and they were not harassed in any way. According to Lord Lin's order, after returning to the village, the village chief went door to door to inform the villagers that they were not allowed to go out and not to talk nonsense.

After stepping on land, the recovery of the army was amazingly good, and the army that had been sluggish after two days of hard work was rejuvenated, Lin Feng knew that the news could not be concealed for long after all, and his time was getting less and less, so when the army had just recovered, he couldn't wait to give the order to set off.

This army with a desperate mentality tried its best to pick some remote barren mountain paths to march quickly, and at the same time sent experienced scout detachments to ensure both sides, because it was a matter of life and death for the whole army, Lin Feng put away all his compassion at this moment, and all the homeless people and passers-by he met along the way were killed, and all the villages he encountered on the march were slaughtered, so as not to leak the news. This road was really bloody, and the number of innocent people killed in a few days reached hundreds, and when he reached the vicinity of the capital, Lin Feng had already committed a heinous crime, and even the army under his command had become very brutal and bloodthirsty.

The last sunset of the Qing Dynasty looked extremely gorgeous, and it is said that many years later, the old people still remembered the sunset on this day, which covered the entire western side, scarlet like blood.

During this period of time, the Great Qing Empire seemed to have come out of the trough, Geng Jingzhong of Fujian suffered a heavy blow, the horse harrier in the northwest was successively defeated by the governor Daniel Zhang, Wang Jinbao and others, one after another good news deeply stimulated all the people who supported the dynasty, for a time the bright future of the empire seemed to be not far away, the foundation of the Great Qing Dynasty was unshakable, and on the same day, the fast horse of the military department sent good news, and even the domestic servant army that the whole capital had laughed at had won a brilliant victory—— Some time ago, the Mongolian Chahar prince rebelled, Kangxi was in a hurry to draw out the last guard force in the capital, forcibly recruited the strong slaves of the wealthy families in the capital, reluctantly pulled out an army, appointed the general Tuhai as the commander, and led the army to quell the rebellion.

Although it was in the war years, the people of the Aixin Jueluo family still maintained a luxurious life, and the Jingshi well water was bitter, so the palace used the spring water of Yuquan Mountain, and the eunuchs drove the waterwheel every day, tirelessly running around for the master.

The weather was hot and sultry, the sun had disappeared on the other side of the mountain, everything around looked cloudy, the soldiers guarding the city yawned, looked back out of the city, a team of carriages appeared in sight, and the escorts around them were dressed in eunuch uniforms, shouting cattle and slowly approaching the city gate.

The city gate leader poked his head out at the head of the city, "Father-in-law has worked hard, why did you come back so late today?!" ”

"Let's ...... We...... When it's time to fetch water today...... One of our brothers broke his leg......" The answer in the darkness trembled, as if he had some kind of disease, but his voice was high-pitched, and when he heard it, he knew that it was the special tone of the eunuch, and the city gate leader retracted his head disapprovingly, and ignored it no more.

The waterwheel was heavy, slowly drove into the city gate hole, a group of guards cooperated with the shrinkage of the body against the wall, so as not to block the way, squinted in a daze and looked at the eunuchs behind the car, in a trance, it seemed a little dazzling, these eunuchs seemed to be a little wrong, how could they all be so strong and fierce with a fierce look, and the clothes seemed to be too ill-fitting, and they could barely wrap their bodies, and the head of the soldiers was puzzled and ready to come forward to ask a few words, and suddenly a strange breath came from the end of his nose, as if something was burning, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, at this time someone was gently patting his shoulder, he subconsciously turned around, a bearded eunuch approached with a cruel smile, hugged tightly from the back, suddenly the neck was cold, a sharp pain hit the heart and lungs, he opened his mouth wide, subconsciously touched his neck, and was suddenly surprised to see his blood sprayed out, splashing all over the wall, and his body seemed to have lost all his strength at once, he struggled to scream a few times, But he found that he couldn't make a sound at this time, and in the confusion, he didn't know who kicked him heavily, and his lifeless body fell over.

There was a loud "boom", and the waterwheel full of gunpowder exploded violently, making an earth-shattering sound, and the entire capital seemed to tremble.

Nine cities are shocked.

The smoke cleared, the hard bluestone ground was blasted out of a huge pit, the thick and heavy city gate had long been lost at this moment, and the seamless and solid city defense seemed to have been removed from the middle of the front teeth, grinning silently in the darkness.

The ignorant city gate leader climbed up on the city tower, at this time his eyes, ears, mouth and nose were full of red blood, and his brain was blank, although the soldier's professional reaction made him immediately draw his waist knife, but at this moment he had obviously lost any ability to fight. He climbed up the female wall tremblingly with his waist knife, looked blankly, and suddenly found that he didn't know when, a black army appeared outside the city wall, and there were many people surging in the dark night.

The Qing officer shook his head vigorously, patted his ear, which had lost his hearing, and smiled self-deprecatingly, feeling that he must have seen it wrong, but when he raised his head again, his legs really could not support the weight of his body, and he fell down headlong to the bottom of the city wall.
