Twenty days later, Dadonggou.

"This place is very memorable!"

Yang Xin held the monocular in both hands, talking to himself like Deng Shichang on some commemorative sculptures.

Behind him was a huge fleet riding the rough seas, and the twelve brand-new three-masted gunboats stood out.

This was his first batch of new warships.

After he went south, the craftsmen found by the Apocalypse, with the sufficient financial support of Huang Zhen, spent half a year to build the first batch of twelve ships in Gegu, which should be 300 tons in terms of displacement, with ten guns on each side plus eight deck guns, a total of 28 guns......

Of course, it won't be too big.

The plan was to mix the twelve-pound and six-pounder ranks, but not yet, so these ships were actually full of jack furlong machines.

It's not as good as the armed merchant ship under his feet.

This ship and the other ship next to him arrived on the same day that he decided to go on an expedition to Zhenjiang City, and neither Chen Si nor Salazar tried to take the opportunity to escape, if they wanted to escape, it was okay, after all, a few Jinyi guards who accompanied the ship on the vast sea couldn't look at them.

But they still honestly went north.

In this way, it is completely certain that they are sincerely surrendering, after all, Yang Xin gave them what they wanted, especially Chen Si, who was wearing the official uniform of a brocade guard at the moment, like a loyal dog with strong hormones and scolded those sailors who did not work hard. Salazar and Diego, who have a privileged life and a bright future, are also standing behind Yang Xin like loyal dogs, and the latter is still carrying his mace and shield, completely like Yang Xin will bite whoever he wants.

But this guy actually had surgery......

He was a sinful Ottoman eunuch who later mingled with Salazar in North Africa, and the Ottomans certainly wouldn't let him keep that ability.

"Yang Yanshi, I didn't find Mao Wenlong."

Yang Xin's civil official, who was also holding a telescope, said.

This is Sun Yuanhua.

He is already a supervisor of the new army, and his official position has also been promoted to the head of the military department, and he is a sixth-grade officer.

It is said that after learning of the conspiracy of Qian Longxi and Qian Shisheng, Tianqi and Jiuqiansui were also taken aback, this new army is stationed in Tongzhou.

Tianqi did not hesitate to dismiss Qian Longxi from his post of supervising the new army.

However, there is no evidence and he can't be disposed of, so he is going to continue to be the young Zhan Shi who has no real power in the Zhan Mansion.

And Sun Yuanhua, who actually presided over the new army, was officially promoted.

In fact, he is also close to the Donglin Party, but the problem is that at this time, there are very few such technical officials in the imperial court, and no one is available except him, and if you want to say that he is close to the Donglin Party, the vast majority of officials in the imperial court cannot say that they are innocent, including Sun Chengzong and Xu Guangqi. As for those who are hostile to the Donglin Party, it is not true, but the problem is that there is no technology in them, they are all pure politicians, and it is a complete joke to expect them to train the new army.

In the final analysis, Da Ming really lacks these real skills.

And because of regional relations, the most scientific people in this era are all in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, especially concentrated in the Susong area.

Can't avoid the Donglin Party.

"Regardless of him, the order has been given to him, if he can't arrive within the time limit, then he will be punished for losing his land and missing the deadline, Xiuyan is only two hundred miles here, and he has arrived in four days on foot."

Yang Xin said.

The order he gave to Mao Wenlong could arrive ten days ago, and Xiuyan would hike five days to Zhenjiang, and if today's attack date could not be reached, it would be completely reasonable to cure Mao Wenlong's crime.

"So we're still landing as planned?"

Sun Yuanhua said.

"Land, give an order to Shen Yourong, and enter the Yalu River!"

Yang Xin said.

Sun Yuanhua looked at a Dafu ship half a mile away, and then ordered the soldiers beside him to wave their flags.

Soon the same flag was waved on the ship.

That was the flagship of Shen Yourong, the commander-in-chief of the Denglai Naval Division, a huge fleet composed of nearly 100 warships, most of which belonged to the Denglai Naval Division, and together with the 14 warships belonging to Yang Xin's Gegu Coastal Defense Battalion, they jointly carried Sun Yuanhua's 4,000 new troops, 2,000 spearmen of the Dangkou Army, and a large number of war materials, with Yang Xin as the commander to land and counterattack Zhenjiang City. Mao Wenlong, the commander-in-chief of Sanyang, who had just lost the defense area, led his troops to meet the peace by land and accepted the command of Yang Baishi, plus his actual 6,000 men and horses, this time the Ming army invested a total of 12,000 troops and more than 10,000 sailors.

The opponent is Mang Gurtai, one of the four great Baylors of Jiannu.

There are 5,008 banners of Manchuria, and there are also 15,000 banners of Korea, of which Mang Gurtai led 3,008 banners of Manchuria and 5,008 banners of North Korea stationed in Zhenjiang City and the attached Jiulian City, and the other 3,008 banners of North Korea were stationed in Fengcheng, 2,008 banners of Manchuria and 3,008 banners of North Korea were stationed in Sanyang, and the remaining eight banners of Korea were scattered in Yiju, Tieshan and other castles along the Yalu River.

In addition, there are people of various ethnic groups who have been relocated in this area, and they have basically been transformed into eight banners, and they can be cobbled together if necessary.

This strength far surpasses Yang Xin.

Originally, it was not a strategic focus for wild boar skins in history.

But because of the previous failure to go out of the mountain, Wild Boar Skin had to turn his strategic goal to North Korea, and this area became his military stronghold, even if he attacked Kaiyuan again, he did not dare to weaken the defense here, after all, this is his back.

He was also afraid of being stabbed in the back.

The last time Mao Wenlong sneaked up on his back, it made him very faceless, and he also discovered that once Xiong Tingbi played a cross-sea expedition with elite, it could really pose a deadly threat to him, after so many failures, he was no longer as confident as he was in the past, on the contrary, the current wild boar skin is very careful. After all, in addition to Xiong Tingbi, there is another man here who makes him unforgettable, this person no one knows when he will appear in an unexpected place, and then leave him with unforgettable memories again......

"Chen Si!"

The man who had put down the binoculars shouted.

"Boss, humble duty!"

Chen Si shouted.

Then he packed up his new official uniform and ran over.

"Go back and change the name of this ship to Dingyuan, and change the name of that ship to Zhenyuan!"

Yang Xin said.

"Uh, lowly understood!"

Chen Si said.

He certainly didn't know what those two names meant.

Just like the two ships in the original history, the Dingyuan and Zhenyuan rode the wind along the Dadonggou, and the hundreds of large and small warships behind them, led by the pilot ship in the lead, gradually converged into a column on the increasingly narrow flare-shaped sea, sailing past the salary island and clinging to the west coast to avoid the sandbar area. At this time, Jiannu's scouts had already appeared on the shore, of course they could not have been unguarded in this area, in fact, there were small fortresses in the area of Lonely Mountain, but Yang Xin did not expect to achieve the effect of sneak attack.

He's here to attack.

"Yang Yanshi, the lower official must remind you that without the cooperation of Mao Wenlong's department, let's not talk about attacking, even the landing will not be completed, and Jiannu's cavalry will be waiting for us on the shore."

Sun Yuanhua reminded Yang Xin solemnly.

At this time, Jiannu's scout cavalry has gone to report the news, and Zhenjiang City is actually Jiulian City, but Jiulian City now has it, but it is only nine small fortresses, and later when aiding Korea, Zhenjiang City was built as the core of these nine fortresses, and finally formed the defense core of the Ming Dynasty at the mouth of the Yalu River.

From here, the relay of messages is delivered on horseback, estimated for a maximum of an hour.

The landing point of the Ming army was not directly passed, the Yalu River estuary shipping port was the head of the waves, and the last bend of the Yalu River in the southeast of Dan was the end point that the sea ships could reach.

Further up, it is not navigable for these 100-ton ships.

The landing point can only be there.

There is still a day's journey from Langtou to Zhenjiang City, but the Jiannu cavalry is also an hour, and it is estimated that when the Ming army is landing, the Jiannu cavalry can arrive, and even the infantry who take a boat upstream can also reach it downstream. These 6,000 new infantry of the Ming army will face 3,000 battle-hardened Jiannu cavalry and 5,000 Eight Banners Korea, which has also experienced many war tests.

Those 4,000 new troops are Sun Yuanhua's hard work!

This is the first all-firearms army in the Ming Dynasty, not only equipped with four medium-sized Hongyi cannons, but also more than 200 turtledoves, 20 large francs, 30 small francs, more than 2,000 birds made by Xu Guangqi to ensure quality, and a large number of chariots. As for the source of soldiers, all of them come from pro-military households, and their salaries are higher than those of the border army, and they eat and eat every day.

It can be said that it was piled up with silver.

But the problem is that I haven't been on the battlefield at all!

None of the 4,000 recruits had ever been on the battlefield, they were all pure recruits.

Yang Xin's Dangkou army had been on the battlefield, but it was a battlefield of rebellion with the official army, and these people also did not face the elite cavalry of Jiannu.

Mang Gurtai is a well-known champion among the sons of wild boar skins.

In other words, even if Yang Xin didn't care about his 2,000 Wandering Army, Sun Yuanhua was reluctant to train the 4,000 new army he had worked so hard to cultivate.

"Brother Sun, have you forgotten one thing?"

Yang Xin said.

"Yang Yanshi, please advise?"

Sun Yuanhua said.

"You forgot that there is a fierce general with 10,000 enemies here!"

Yang Xin said reservedly.

What else can Sun Yuanhua do?

I had to smile and simply shut up.

Anyway, this guy is the commander, he is just a deputy, in fact, he is not a deputy, the deputy is Shen Yourong, the chief soldier of the Navy Division, he is just the chief counselor of the military department, which is equivalent to the chief of staff, and now he can only hope for this guy who says that he is the enemy of ten thousand people. Fortunately, his record is still okay, he really hasn't lost a battle since his debut, and he also killed one of the sons of the wild boar skin, and now he can only pray that he is really like what he said.
