Chapter 297: Take Taiwan
"Nine masters, ten masters, in front of Luermen, the surname of the country was to take advantage of the high tide to invade Taiwan from here. If the fleet wants to enter the inland sea, it must take advantage of the high tide on the first and sixteenth days of each month, and the country surnamed Ye arrived here on the evening of the 30th, and if the opportunity is missed, it will be postponed for half a month. At that time, the surname of the country was immediately decisive and decided to carry out the forced crossing. In view of the dangers of strong winds and waves, some generals strongly advised the country surnamed Ye not to engage in rash work, and asked for the suspension of sailing. The surname of the country immediately decided, 'The ice is strong and can be crossed, and the will of heaven is there.' …… Otherwise, the officers and men would not be able to sit on the island and starve. On the ship, Lin Tianhong pointed to the sea channel in front of him and told Yang Chengxie and Zhang Jin about Zheng Chenggong's glorious deeds of recovering Taiwan, which were all familiar to the Heaven and Earth Society.
Yang Chengxie and Zhang Jin heard it for the first time, and when they heard that Zheng Chenggong skillfully crossed Luermen and forced to land in Chichicheng, they couldn't help but be excited, and couldn't help but praise loudly, "The surname of the country is really a man who stands up to the sky!" ”
The boat docked at the dock, several soldiers of the green battalion came up to take a look, Lin Tianhong made a few gestures imperceptibly, and these soldiers retreated respectfully, not even on the boat. Yang Chengxie and Zhang Jin looked at each other and nodded slightly, it seems that this Taiwan green camp is also out of the hidden stakes of the Heaven and Earth Society.
When he arrived at the residence, Lin Tianhong said, "In the past few days, I have wronged the two masters to rest again, and tonight I will take a few elders in the association to wash the dust for the two." ”
"In the future, we will have a long time to deal with, so we are not in a hurry." , Yang Chengxie politely rejected his proposal, "The two of us came to receive the task of the chief helmsman this time, and we didn't dare to drink, and when we recovered Taiwan, we would make amends to Lin Dangjia." ”
Lin Tianhong also knew that the two of them were shouldering heavy responsibilities, so when he said a few polite words, he no longer insisted when he saw that the two of them were resolute, and left a few members of the Tiandi Congregation who were familiar with the local situation. Yang Chengxie took his subordinates out of the luggage and took out some iron pipes and wooden blocks and skillfully assembled them, and after a while, several rifled rifles and flintlock pistols appeared in front of everyone, and there were some other strange-shaped instruments, but these were instruments to measure the hydrological data of Luermen and the position defense of the Qing army.
"Brother Jiu, this day is much better than having a meeting all day in Funing!" , Zhang Jin, who had finished the preparations, wiped his sweat and said. "I'm stupid, I make my brain hurt all day long, but I still pick up knives and guns and Tartars to have fun."
"Who didn't admit it last time they lost? You still owe me a drink! Yang Chengxie said with a smile.
"How can I be considered lost!". Zhang Jin blushed, "The last Tartar was obviously hit by me first, and it was a tie at most!" We both killed twenty-seven Tartars! ”
"Shh , Yang Chengxie shook his head and didn't say much, it seemed that they had quarreled many times on this issue. After a while, he sighed and said, "It's a pity that the second brother and the fifth brother and the sixth brother are gone!" How happy they would have been if they had seen what the meeting was like now! ”
"Hey, they just can't think about it for a while, and it will be fine after a while!" , Zhang Jin sighed, "Wouldn't it be good for me to say that we are fighting one house after another like we are now?" Do you have to cooperate with the Tartar Emperor? ”
"Tenth brother, don't talk about it! When we finish half of the country, the second brother and they will still come back! Yang Chengxie is a person who has been a helper, and he faintly feels that this kind of thing is still not mixed up. Hurriedly stopped Zhang Jin's complaints, "Let's discuss how to find out the main things of the chief helm as soon as possible!" ”
In the next few days, with the help of the congregation of the Heaven and Earth Society, Zhang Jin and Yang Chengxie led the special forces to survey the hydrological situation of Luermen, the layout of the Qing army's defense line and the detailed data of the sailors, and sent special personnel to send them back to Funing Mansion by boat. Then lurk in peace, ready to meet the coming army of the Red Flower Society.
In the early morning of one day, when the tide was high in Luermen, the Qing army camp was no different from the past, and the few soldiers on duty yawned boredly on the lookout, and a few black shadows quietly touched it. The leader gestured a few times, and the black shadows immediately scattered and separated, then covered the mouths of the soldiers on duty with one hand, and took out the dagger with the other, and wiped their necks cleanly; The corpses of the soldiers were dragged aside, and the leader took a firework from his bosom and lit it.
"The Sentinel has been cleared! Target: Deer Ear Gate. Sail! Su Changquan immediately issued an order loudly after seeing the fireworks blooming in the night sky, "The army has annihilated more than 50,000 enemy troops, and our navy has not yet achieved an inch, this battle must be fought beautifully, and the majesty of our navy must be played!" ”
"Yes!". All the members of the navy shouted in unison, and then quickly ran to their respective posts, raised their sails, turned their rudders, and moved their gun positions, and under the leadership of the three third-class sail battleships, dozens of warships rushed to Luermen in unison, followed by the fleet led by Zhao Banshan, dozens of merchant ships were densely packed with more than 5,000 soldiers, and after the navy cleared the green battalion on the dock, they would complete the task of completely capturing Taiwan.
"Enemy attack!" , A scream woke up the sleeping barracks, the officer on duty at night woke up from his sleep and hurried to the lookout to look, not far away was the sail that covered the entire sea, he was about to turn his head to gather the soldiers, not far from the roof a fire came out, and then bang, a blood flower appeared in his chest, the officer collapsed weakly to the ground. On the roof, Zhang Jin gave Yang Chengxie a thumbs up, and turned his head to search for other targets.
Three more gunners fell on the way to the gun position, and for a moment no one dared to open fire, and finally rushed to the gun position under the threat of the officer's steel knife, only to find that the gun port was tightly blocked, and the long-range attack capability of the entire position was paralyzed.
In less than an hour, Luermen fell into the hands of the Red Flower Society, and the army of the brigade landed on the land of Taiwan from here, and quickly rushed to the capital city of Taiwan after the whole team.
After another month, the entire territory of Taiwan was cleared of Qing forces, and since 1683, seventy-seven years after Taiwan fell into the hands of the Tartars, the treasure island of Taiwan returned to the hands of the Han Chinese; The Heaven and Earth Society finally had its own territory and began to celebrate proudly; The Red Flower Society, on the other hand, obtained new coal and iron resources and quickly began production.
The news was transmitted back to Fujian, and Yang Tingzhang and others, who were still waiting for the court to deal with it, first wailed for a while like a mourning examine, and when they woke up, they were faintly happy in their hearts, fortunately, there are not many Manchurian uncles in Taiwan's mansion, and there is no need to break the bank this time! There is really no surplus food in Fuzhou City to redeem the prisoners! (To be continued.) )
