Chapter 335: Disparity Firearms Victory

The distance between the eight hundred-person squads is not far from each other, walking towards the island, the arquebus can be extremely far, there are spears in close combat, and the squads take care of each other, the people on the island actually still have an advantage, but the organization and formation are too far behind the Jiang family's army.

Of course, there are also people with flexible brains, who have formed a local numerical advantage in some directions and launched an attack on the hundred-man squad, but as soon as the arquebus fires, it will stop their momentum, and immediately the nearby squads will come to reinforce them, and the two squares together, the increase in power is not a matter of doubling.

In this state of having no skills to use, the soldiers and widows of the Xia family are also getting more and more depressed the more they fight, not to mention any morale, as long as they are close to the other party, there will be casualties immediately, but the other party has no damage at all.

How to fight this, gradually as long as the face is to retreat, and then it is to disperse, and finally the ashore is the sword and shield hand of the Jiang family's army, which can be regarded as the most brave soldiers, they are wearing heavy armor, when encountering stubborn enemy troops who rely on houses or fortifications to protect them.

It's up to them to kill them, and when they go in, it's often an arquebusier who sweeps the formation, and the sword and shield soldiers rush in in groups of three to fight.

Gradually, the people were driven to the flat area of Damen Island, which is the hinterland of Damen Island, and in Jiang Feng's intelligence, Xia Qingjiao and Zhiju Zhongshou's core forces are here, and there is also a decent inner castle.

Jiang Feng and some of the soldiers on the ship had already begun to go to the island, Jiang Feng looked around this gate island, and when he went ashore, he found that there was no dangerous place to defend here, and at the same time, it was not like Liuheng Island and Linjia Island, I really didn't know how to make this choice in the first place.

The hundred soldiers of the guards on the side looked around nervously, Jiang Feng was quite relaxed, and said with a smile:

"This kind of role without vision is really incorrigible, such islands, inhabited by fishermen, are also cramped as pirate nests!"

The children of the Xia family who were sent to lead the way led more than a dozen people to persuade them to surrender everywhere on the island, and the soldiers of the Jiang family army who went to the island also shouted "those who surrender will not be killed" and "those who surrender will not be killed".

The soldiers of the Xia family on the island are often with their families, and they are loyal to the Xia family rather than Xia Qingjiao.

There were also those who took the initiative to lead the way and help shout, the situation on the island quickly collapsed, and in the early morning, Jiang Feng's fleet appeared in front of the port of Damen Island, and at noon, Jiang Feng had already led his soldiers to stand in the hinterland of the so-called Damen Island.

This is a large open space, surrounded by a stone wall, and there are quite decent low buildings built inside, which can obviously be the so-called inner fort.

Standing here, there were more than a dozen guards holding large shields in front of Jiang Feng, firmly guarding the front to avoid a sudden attack in the inner fort in front.

Zhang Liang took off his helmet, casually threw the iron gun in his hand to a guard, and said to Jiang Feng with a little panting:

"Master, the people below said that more than 300 people died in the Xia family, and more than 300 people died in the Japanese family, and now the people of the Xia family have surrendered except for those who follow Xia Qingjiao to the death."

Jiang Feng nodded and said:

"That is to say, there are still about 2,000 people from Wakou and Xia Laosan here."

Zhang Liang wiped the sweat on his face with a handkerchief, and when he heard this, he said:

"Master, let us rush, I'll take the lead, or these grandsons won't come out!"

Hearing Zhang Liang's words, Jiang Feng glared back angrily, and scolded:

"You go up, go up and send you to death, master, I can't be too lazy to bury the silver now, order the team to retreat fifty paces, and bombard it with six pounds!"

There were a few horses on Damen Island, which were directly requisitioned by the Jiang family army and used to drag artillery, Jiang Feng gave an order, officers at all levels began to give orders, the Jiang family army slowly retreated to the back, Xia Qingjiao and Zhiju Zhongshou looked nervously outside in the bunker.

There are a large number of soldiers in the stone walls around the inner fort, all of which are the Xia family soldiers and Xia Qingjiao's cronies, as well as the elite troops who are loyal to the city, originally thought that Jiang Feng's phalanx soldiers were about to start charging, and when the time came, it would be a bloody battle, and everyone would fight.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Feng actually ordered his soldiers to retreat like this, and the two of them couldn't help but glance at each other, and they were a little unsure of Jiang Feng's interruption in their hearts.

It didn't take too long for the creaking sound to sound, but I saw that the four cannons were pushed up by a group of people like this, the air in the south was humid, and the bow and arrow were not as good as a slingshot if they were not maintained by special people. The accuracy of the bow and arrow at sea is even worse, and the decision to jump to each other and slash and kill is real.

Therefore, the Jiang family army outside pushed the cannon up, and there was not even a countermeasure in the inner fort, so they could only watch, and Zhiju Zhongshou and Xia Qingjiao showed a desperate look in their eyes......

But although the soldiers within the stone walls were preparing to fight to the death, they had no idea what was going on outside, and when it was quiet, they suddenly heard heart-rending shouts from inside the inner fort, one of them spoke in the Japanese language, and the other said:

"Sons, let's ......"

The voice was quickly suppressed by the whistling of the cannonball, the power of this cannon is not comparable to the small cannon similar to a large musket of a pound of Franc machine, at least the sound brought out made everyone present shocked, as if it was thunder in the sky, and the ground trembled slightly.

The first round of the cannonballs was a test firing, so there were some problems with the angle adjustment, and the four shells smashed heavily on the stone wall, which was originally made of bricks, but the middle was smeared with muddy water, after all, they had not been on the island for a long time, and they were quite arrogant and felt that no one would come.

The cannonball smashed on the stone wall, and the huge force smashed the stone wall where the bullet was hit, and the gravel sputtered out at high speed, and the soldiers behind were caught off guard, and they were directly killed and injured by these gravels.

After a round of shelling, the only remaining resistance forces inside and the soldiers outside were quiet for a while, and then they rushed out one by one frantically, Jiang Feng, who was standing not far from the queue, had someone to translate for him, and the Zhiju Zhongshou on the inner fort shouted to let his subordinates go out and fight hard, otherwise the other party would definitely not let go.

Jiang Feng was unusually calm, looking at the Japanese and pirates who rushed out frantically in front of him, his expression did not move, he just shook his head, quite interested.

This time, there were only two cannons that fired, and the iron ball smashed into the crowd, and suddenly there was a bloody path, but the killing was not as good as the previous fan effect of smashing on the stone wall, and the Japanese who rushed outside had even more confidence, thinking that as long as they rushed to the front, they could fight, instead of doing this and waiting to be killed.

After the two guns fired, the gunner and the auxiliary personnel around him ran towards the back quickly, and even the cannon was gone, and only two people were left in front of the two guns in the middle with torches in their hands.

This kind of escape was seen by the already red-eyed pirates and pirates, inexplicably increased their confidence, and even rushed forward at a desperate speed, the retreating team of the Jiang family army was already in full formation, Jiang Feng laughed there, and said to himself:

"The more you don't know anything, the more bold you ......"

Before the words fell, two guns that had not sounded were fired violently, and the small pieces of lead were quickly fired out as if they were scattered in all directions like the rain of death.

The amount of ammunition fired by the six-pounder cannon and the one-pound cannon naturally cannot be compared, and all the small lead fast shotguns are the most lethal artillery, shouting to kill the charging pirates and pirate brigades, more than 1,000 people are quite amazing, but when the artillery sounds, it is as if the rushing waves suddenly stopped, and a large number of people fell to the ground silently, and there were wounded who fell to the ground screaming loudly.

With the medical ability at this time, these people have no hope of surviving at all.

Although many people were lucky enough to avoid the shelling, the pace of the charge was much slower, but in front of Jiang Feng's Jiang Jiajun position, four hundred arquebusiers were divided into five platoons, and the spearmen stood on both sides, not in the queue, which had the advantage of increasing the density of firepower.

The officer shouted, the arquebusiers in the first and second rows began to fire, the pirates who ran in the front fell to the ground, and the five rows of muskets began to fire in turn, and the half-hearted pirates suddenly became chaotic, some ran to the back, and those behind rushed to the front.

Crowded together, constantly knocked down by arquebuses, spearmen and sword and shield bearers were gradually approaching, now there is no suspense about the outcome of the victory, Jiang Feng sighed and said:

"Shout surrender and don't kill!"

Now the words finally worked, and the people who were still standing knelt on the ground without hesitation, and the arquebusiers did not receive the order to stop, and still loaded and fired mechanically, but many of the people inside were still on their knees, and they no longer wanted to bear such a one-sided slaughter.

"Master, those who went out to surrender, there are still more than 1,200 prisoners here."

After listening to Zhang Liang's report, Jiang Feng had a headache, there were too many people killed, and there were still many people waiting to buy it, and at this time, he heard someone shouting in the inner fort

"Lord Jiang, the villain is willing to surrender and spare the villain's life!"

Now Xia Qingjiao and Zheju Zhongshou still haven't come out, after asking, they said that there were still dozens of people in there, but at this time they shouted there and begged for mercy, Jiang Feng turned his head and asked Zhang Liang and said:

"Did you hear anything?"

Zhang Liang also shook his head in a daze, Jiang Feng grinned and ordered:

"The bandit leader couldn't resist and fired a cannon to level them!!"
