Chapter 811: Bombardment of Yellow Bone Island and Encounter the Enemy Kong Tingxun

With his repeated calls, the entire garrison in the fort suddenly woke up from panic.

Soon, a large number of soldiers quickly ran over the head of the Yellow Bone Island Fort, and they stood on tiptoe and looked hard to the east.

Sure enough, through the sparse snowflakes in the air, they could see a large number of soldiers with complete oracle bones, who were coming ashore in a dense manner, ready to go.

Seeing this scene, all the defenders in the fort suddenly gasped.

They did not dare to slack off, and immediately sent messengers to Zhuanghe City on the west bank of the Biliu River, to report to Kong Tingxun, the son of Kong Youde, who was stationed there, that there was an enemy attack.

At the same time, the defenders of the fort shouted their horses and sounded their trumpets, and quickly made preparations at the head of the city, intending to rely on this fort of Yellow Bone Island, with the fort to hold on, to meet the incoming enemy.

On the coast in the distance, he heard the horn of the Yellow Bone Island Fort in the distance, and Hauge suddenly understood that the defenders of the Yellow Bone Island Fort should have inadvertently discovered the whereabouts of the soldiers and horses.

Hmph, what if you find out, Lao Tzu still wants to take this fort quickly.

Therefore, Hauge immediately ordered all the more than 1,200 cavalry to immediately go out and march to the Yellow Bone Island Fort to cut off the defenders' retreat. Then, he ordered the whole infantry and artillery units to go out to the fort of Yellow Bone Island and launch a strong attack on the fort.

In the faint morning light, the snowflakes were scattered, and the people of the Hauge tribe shouted and neighed, and rushed towards the Yellow Bone Island Fort like a black shadow in the distance.

Soon, more than 1,200 cavalry in front of them, marching in the wind and snow, had all arrived at the fort of Yellow Bone Island. And in accordance with Hauge's order, the front and rear fort gates of the Yellow Bone Island Fort have been completely blocked.

From a distance, the cavalry had surrounded the Yellow Bone Island Fort, and the defenders inside had become caged birds, and it was difficult to escape, and Hauge couldn't hide his smugness.

It seems that his plan to go down to the Yellow Bone Island Fort first and then capture Zhuanghe City should be very smooth.

Thinking of this, Hao Gefu shouted and ordered: "The whole army is speeding up, and you must reach the bottom of the Yellow Bone Island Fort as soon as possible." This king wants to let the defenders in this fort, let these things who don't know whether they are alive or dead, have a good taste of the powerful artillery of our army, what is it like! ”

"Order!"

Soon, like a surging tide, the Hauge tribes quickly pounced on the Yellow Bone Island Fort, and immediately surrounded this seaside heavy fort like an iron bucket.

Seeing that Hauge was so large and moved so quickly, the defenders at the head of the city, whose morale was already low, were immediately very depressed. They stood at the head of the city, trembling with trembling faces, their faces full of fear and loss, completely unsure of what to do next.

What to do?

The way to retreat has been completely blocked, and if I want to escape again, I can't.

So, with less than 400 soldiers in the city, can it withstand an enemy army of thousands of soldiers and horses?

While they were still hesitating and panicking, the siege of the Don army officially began after the successful arrival of the artillery unit.

The defenders at the head of the city were horrified to see that in the deafening horns and rumbling war drums, 30 steel heavy dragon bombardment guns shining with silver and gray light were slowly pushed by the Tang gunners to a distance of about 1,000 meters outside the gate of the Yellow Bone Island Fort before they stopped on the spot.

Next, the Don gunners began to fix the gun mounts, adjust the angle of fire, reload gunpowder and shells, and soon made preparations for battle.

These 30 heavy dragon bombardment cannons are lined up along the east fort wall of Huanggu Island Fort, which is majestic and majestic, and has an invincible spirit that sweeps the world. The muzzle of the black hole was like countless thick phallus pointed at it proudly, straight towards the high Yellow Bone Island fort wall opposite.

The awe-inspiring momentum of these cannons, even if it was only seen from a distance, made the four hundred enemy troops guarding the fort so frightened that their legs and feet weakened, and it was almost difficult to stand firmly.

Everyone could almost intuitively feel that these behemoth-like artillery pieces were already so terrifying, and one could imagine how amazing their attack and destructive power would be once fired.

Such a terrifying formation, Rao is a long-time battle-hardened general, seeing that the Tang Army gunners can launch so many unprecedented huge artillery pieces to attack the city, his face suddenly broke into a cold sweat, and his face turned pale in an instant.

The artillery of the Tang Army is completely different from the ordinary artillery such as the Hongyi cannon, the general cannon, the second general cannon, the Shenwei cannon, and the tiger squat cannon that they are accustomed to seeing in the Ming and Qing dynasties, both in scale and momentum.

So, in the case of such a powerful heavy artillery bombarding the fort intensively, is he really capable of holding this Yellow Bone Island fort......

Unexpectedly, Tang Jun's methods of dealing with himself were so direct and fierce, like a lion fighting a rabbit.

Thinking of this, the defenders at the head of the city who were watching stupidly only felt that even breathing began to become difficult.

And at this moment, all the panicked defenders saw from a distance that a person who looked like a captain in the Tang army formation raised the red flag in his hand.

"Ready!"

"Put!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

……

30 heavy dragon bombardment guns that fired 32 pounds of shells, the muzzle of each cannon immediately spewed out crimson afterburners and dazzling golden fire, dense and choking billowing white smoke rose up, covering the sky, and thirty huge black round iron bullets, with the whistle of death, slammed into the right side of the fort wall of Yellow Bone Island.

The huge impact sound that shattered the eardrum sounded continuously, and the thirty jet-black 32-pound iron bullets, as if they had eyes, hit the eastern wall of the Yellow Bone Island Fort fiercely in an evenly distributed state.

On the eastern wall of the entire fortress city, thirty large holes arranged neatly and evenly appeared in an instant, and at the edge of each large hole, the thick cracked lines were as dense as spider webs, and they spread unscrupulously to the siege, and a large number of city wall bricks splashed and cracked, and a piece of dust and mist filled the air, and the entire city wall was trembling violently.

On the city wall, a large number of guards who were shocked to the ears, eyes, nostrils and mouths bleeding together, everyone was shocked to the blood surged, and the eyes were shrouded in the dust and fog that choked their noses, and the city wall under their feet shook violently like a pendulum, and there were several small copper cannons or small iron cannons at the head of the city, which were shaken down from the city wall, and there were several loud noises and turned into scrap metal.

At the same time, as many as thirty unsteady defenders fell from the city wall screaming, and then fell into bloody meatloaf.

The enemy soldiers guarding the city wall suddenly became greatly confused.

Their morale was already weak and unbearable, but now they were bombarded by artillery so fiercely, and their morale had dropped to the bottom.

These guys, on weekdays, are good at bullying the local villagers, but it is too much to force them to maintain their composure and combat effectiveness under this strong and fierce battle.

At this time, on the eastern city wall, there was no need for people to organize at all, and immediately hundreds of frightened defender soldiers, as if they had seen the most terrifying thing in the world, screamed in horror, turned around and fled down the road of the city wall.

Some of them took the lead in fleeing, and the remaining defenders either stood stunned as if waiting to die, or scurried around like headless flies.

Seeing this chaotic Yellow Bone Island Fort head, Hauge's face was full of smug smiles.

Damn, these guys really can't resist the beating, and this is only the first round of shelling, and the entire defenders are all disrupted, and they basically lose the ability to fight back.

Hauge immediately ordered a halt to the second round of shelling and sent messengers to persuade him to surrender.

Soon, a Han Chinese officer, under the protection of several guards, swaggered out of battle, and when he came to a place about a stone's throw away from the Yellow Bone Island Fort, he shouted at the head of the city: "Hey, the enemy soldiers at the head of the city!" Your troops and horses have become turtles in the urn, and it is difficult to escape. If you don't want to die under the fire of our army, if you still want to save your life, you can quickly raise the white flag and open the door to surrender. Otherwise, if our artillery is fired again, this Yellow Bone Island Fort will be completely razed to the ground, and all of you will be killed here, and there will be no more survivors! Listen, our army only gives you half an hour to think about it, and if you don't surrender at that time, don't blame our army for being ruthless! ”

After the Han army envoy shouted loudly, regardless of the reaction of the defenders at the head of the city, he immediately pulled out his horse and returned to the battle, leaving the stunned defenders at the head of the city in a daze.

However, Hauge was not at all worried, after such a fierce shelling, the gang still had the courage to fight against Yonghe himself.

As expected, he and his subordinates waited for less than a pillar of incense, and a huge white flag was already flying high at the head of the Yellow Bone Island Fort.

At the same time, the drawbridge at the main gate of the Yellow Bone Island Fort was smashed down with a bang, the gate creaked open, and a large number of defenders walked out of the fort in despair, and then knelt outside the fort gate in unison and surrendered to Hauge and others.

Seeing that these people really had no fighting spirit at all, and that they could only go out of the city and surrender, Hauge was overjoyed, and immediately ordered someone to come forward, say kind words to them, and take them all away.

After completing the exploration of the Yellow Bone Island Fort, Hauge collected all the ordnance, money and food in the fort, packed and transported it, and sent a small team of infantry to escort the Tang warships that surrendered and captured them and went to the beach together. After the battle is completed, the prisoners and supplies are escorted south to Golden State.

At this time, Hauge had already learned from the mouth of the soldiers that when they were marching towards the Yellow Bone Island Fort, the fort had sent a messenger for help to Zhuanghe City on the other side of the Biliu River to ask for help.

In Zhuanghe City, Kong Tingxun, the son of Kong Youde, led more than 2,000 guards to garrison it. In addition, there were hundreds of defenders, scattered among the various Qianhu forts outside Zhuanghe City.

Haoge estimated that by now, Zhuanghe City should have received the news of the attack on the Yellow Bone Island Fort, and Kong Tingxun, the son of Kong Youde, is very likely to bring the soldiers and horses in the city to the rescue as soon as possible.

As a result, Hauge immediately gave orders and ordered the whole army to quickly prepare for battle.

He was right, Kong Tingxun at this time was indeed in the official hall of Zhuanghe City and received a request for help from the Yellow Bone Island Fort.

After listening to the emissary's cry, the only son of Kong Youde, who had just turned twenty years old, had a look of disbelief on his face.

"Do you see who the enemy army is? How many soldiers are there? Kong Tingxun asked sharply.

"When the enemy army came, it was dark, and we could only see a large number of enemy troops landing on the shore, but we could not see what the enemy army was and the specific number of soldiers and horses. It's just that, after a rough estimate, I'm afraid there are thousands of people. Relying on the 400 defenders of the Yellow Bone Island Fort alone, they were afraid that it would be difficult to defend, so they hurried from the Yellow Bone Island Fort to report to the prince. I also hope that the prince will send reinforcements as soon as possible to aid the Yellow Bone Island Fort, and not let the enemy's conspiracy succeed......"

The messenger was still chattering, but Kong Tingxun didn't feel his brows furrowed.

No, how could this be the case?

Now in this cold winter season, there will be enemy troops risking the danger of freezing the sea and suddenly attacking the Zhuanghe area, which is too unreasonable.

You must know that the only one who dares to attack the Qing army now is the Tang Army, which is in full swing.

However, in the eastern Liaodong region, the main strength of the Tang Army, the first of which was the General Troops of the First Town B Battalion A of the Tang Army in Jinzhou, was not too many. The second is the Haoge tribe in Fuzhou, the number of which is 3,000, but they should be firmly besieged in Fuzhou now, and they are about to be completely wiped out by the army of the British Prince Azig, how can they appear here in Zhuanghe?

It's weird to think about this situation.

The messenger next to him kept pleading, so that Kong Tingxun didn't have time to think about it, and he immediately shouted: "The Yellow Bone Island Fort is in crisis, and this son can't help it." What's more, the enemy army is coming from afar to sneak attack, and it is bound to not last long, and our army must take the initiative to attack and defeat it in one fell swoop, so as to completely relieve the siege of Huanggu Island Fort. ”

After Kong Tingxun finished speaking, he gave another loud order: "Pass on the military order of the prince of this world, take the two thousand soldiers and horses in the city, immediately make preparations, go with the prince to meet the enemy in person, and be sure to defeat the enemy army in one fell swoop." ”

"Shizi, if all the soldiers and horses in the city are out, wouldn't the defenses of Zhuanghe City be very empty, in this case, in case ......" The messenger hurriedly reminded the impulsive young prince that he deliberately did not say the following words.

Kong Tingxun snorted, nodded, and said: "What you said is also reasonable, then just like that, let the rest of the soldiers in the fort in Zhuanghe City return to help Zhuanghe as soon as possible." After our army returned victoriously, it withdrew to the forts. ”

"Hey, the minion obeys."

Soon, Kong Tingxun ordered his troops and horses, and immediately set off from Zhuanghe City, all the way to the Yellow Bone Island Fort in the northeast.

At this time, the original light snow gradually grew bigger, but Kong Tingxun, who was anxious, ignored the weather changes at all, and ordered his soldiers to speed up and march towards the Yellow Bone Island Fort.

"Shizi, look, there seems to be an enemy army in front of you!"

When he was about to arrive at Yellow Bone Island, the guard next to Kong Tingxun had sharp eyes and pointed to the front of the snowflakes, and shouted at Kong Tingxun.

Kong Tingxun sighed, hurriedly picked up the clairvoyant mirror, and looked into the distance through the snowflakes, and couldn't help frowning greatly.
