Chapter 470: Simple, Rough and Powerful
The night is dark, and the winter night sky is more deep and blue against the backdrop of the sad mood of the two Manchu Qing officials, the rich monk and the Fulle, which makes people feel the loneliness and desolation unique to the winter night. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoA few stars danced in the distance, and the sky was as black as ink.
An extremely sharp question is in front of the two, how will the battle of Tianjin City be fought tomorrow?
"Hailancha has already sent troops across the canal, and tomorrow they will attack Cao Zhuang." So Hailancha asked them to stick to Tianjin City.
After listening to the words of the rich monk, Fuller shook his head gloomily, "The morale of the army is very bad, and there is no fighting spirit from top to bottom." If Chen Wei storms Tianjin with all his might, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold out for even a day. The bitterness on Fuller's face was heavier than eating bitter melon.
"Can Hailancha conquer Cao Zhuang tomorrow and kill behind Chen Yi's ass?" Fuller was pessimistic in the battle. The rich monk was even more pessimistic about the battle situation, shaking his head, "As long as Chen Reyi's kind of shells (rockets) are there, they are invincible." ”
"Then send a letter to Highlancha as well. In any case, he must exercise behind Chen Yi before noon tomorrow, otherwise Tianjin will be in danger. ”
"And send the horse team to the east of the city, just in case."
As the two biggest bosses of the Qing army in Tianjin, Erfu's own confidence has fallen to this extent, and the morale of the entire Qing army has fallen? In the middle of the night, Chen Ming entered the west of Tianjin, looked at Tianjin, and found that the morale of the Qing army had become ethereal like steaming smoke, but no longer volatile and dissipating all the time.
Chen Ming laughed and left the outside of Tianjin, tomorrow, he will definitely be able to step into Tianjin. Chen Ming is extremely convinced of this. The guards and staff officers around him were encouraged by Chen Ming's laughter, and they were also full of confidence in tomorrow's battle of Tianjin.
But in the middle of the night, Chen Ming was suddenly woken up by Liu Wu, because an uninvited guest came to a place not far from the Fu Han army.
"Your Highness, Hailancha personally led the troops into Haojiatai." Haojiatai is in the southwest of the Sancha estuary, while Tianjin is in the south of the Sancha estuary, and the two are ten miles apart.
Chen Ming's hazy drowsiness disappeared in an instant, "What about Cao Zhuang?" How many people did Highlanza bring? ”
"There is no news from Cao Zhuang, but there are no big gunshots there. It should have been blocked by the Qing army. The Hailancha Department had at least 5,000 foot riders. ”
"Hylancha didn't bring heavy artillery?" Chen Ming immediately heard Liu Wu's absolute answer, "Not really." ”
If the Fu Han army allows the Qing army to move tomorrow, he will be transferred from Haojiatai to Houtai, and he can directly enter Tianjin from the south of Tianjin. The Fu Han army relied on heavy firepower to fight the war, and it was very unfavorable for the Fu Han army to fight in the place south of Tianjin where the water network was intertwined. Therefore, Chen Ming first took the mouth of the Sancha River, so that the team could not only attack Tianjin from the west, but also the north of Tianjin was under the front of the Fu Han army.
"The combat effectiveness of the Eight Banners New Army under Hailancha is still good." Although the combat strength and fighting spirit cannot be compared with the main force of the Fu Han Army, it is not comparable to those green battalion training troops in Tianjin, if a new army of the Eight Banners is put in, the Qing army in Tianjin is very likely to have a backbone, and the result of one plus one is greater than two. Chen Ming didn't frown when he heard the news of the Russians' intervention, and twisted it slightly at this time.
Dabei Temple, the foothold of Chen Ming's headquarters, is also a well-known jungle temple in the north of Tianjin. The host Fan did not fall asleep at all, sitting cross-legged on the cloud bed and silently turning the rosary in his hand. The room was pitch black, and the sound of the monk's sleeping snort could be heard clearly. Since Chen Ming settled in this Great Compassion Temple, the entire temple has been under martial law.
More than 20 monks and novices were gathered in the four most remote rooms in the backyard.
Suddenly I heard a sound outside, and then I saw the lights on in the rooms outside, and my mind moved slightly, and then I saved up and silently turned the beads, if it weren't for the fingers plucking the rosary, the whole person would be like a clay statue.
There must have been a few monks in the room who were awakened, but if they didn't move, no one moved, and the outside was empty.
The sky turned to gray, and the sound outside was louder, and when the blue-gray gradually receded, the ground trembled with the sound of neat footsteps, and along with the sound of the steps, there was a loud military song.
It wasn't long before there was a knock on the door and a bucket of hot water and two small buckets of food. One bucket is boiled with rotten rice porridge, the other bucket is made up of cabbage, radish, and pickles, and the top half is more than a dozen steamed buns.
The old monk only opened his eyes at this time and saluted the two soldiers of the Fu Han Army who were delivering the meal. "I'm tired of the donor."
The two soldiers who delivered the meal were the guards beside Chen Ming, "Master relax." It was only yesterday night. This time, our army will be able to enter Tianjin City. "Then naturally there is no need to occupy the Great Compassion Temple anymore.
Seeing the two soldiers leave, Li Fan said silently in his heart: "The Qing Dynasty is over......" The confidence of the Fu Han Army is really strong to the West Heaven and the world. Then, as if thinking of something, he smiled faintly and said to a few monks on the left and right: "Let's eat." "Does he care if the Qing Dynasty dies or not? Monks, the red dust is cut off, and the vulgar fate is over!
And like Fan, who didn't sleep all night, there was Hailancha, who was holding a telescope at the moment to observe the Fu Han army not far away. Chen Ming sent Lu Long to lead the brigade headquarters and the troops of a regiment of the 14th Brigade to press directly towards Haojiatai. The team did not carry heavy artillery, but there were definitely rocket troops.
Hailancha won't be bombed on the spot.
Finding that the Fu Han army was pressing over, Hailancha asked the troops to give up some unnecessary things and move to the south of Tianjin. On the other side, it is to concentrate all the rifled gun shooters in their hands and delay the speed of the Han army in the form of skirmishers. At the same time, a team of horses was left behind to back up the skirmishers.
And Hailancha himself also rushed to the northwest of the Fu Han army with a horse team of three or four hundred people, restraining the energy of this Fu Han army.
Different from the appearance of the imminent war here in Tianjin, in Yangliuqing Town, a large number of Eight Banners New Army is seizing the time to go south, and their troops are divided into two routes, one directly from the river pontoon bridge, the other side is dragging heavy cannons, and they are seizing the time to go south, to cross the canal from the south stone bridge.
At the critical moment when Tianjin City was really dangerous, Hailancha gave up his plan to capture Yang Liuqing and Cao Zhuang, but left a part of the troops to guard, and the main force turned to the outside of Tianjin City one after another. At this moment, outside Yang Liuqing, just like outside Cao Zhuang, Hailancha left two or three thousand people.
He also had no intention of stabbing the Han army's ass, but wanted to preemptively move the team into Tianjin City, at least to ensure that Tianjin was not lost. Even the most brainless people can imagine Tianjin's shocking shock to Beijing. Besides, isn't the plan of the Han army to capture Tianjin, followed by Dagu, and open up the sea channel?
Outside the north gate of Tianjin, Shi Meng held a monocular, carefully looking at the layout of the Qing army, there did not seem to be many Qing troops on the city, and in addition to the cannon in the corner tower, there was not a single cannon between the battlements.
"We now have more than 800 rockets and rockets and artillery shells of all kinds." The number in Shi Meng's mouth is the number after deducting the bottom of the stay, and those left the bottom are where Chen Ming's confidence lies all the way back to Cangzhou, and he can only watch and not move until the mountains and rivers are exhausted.
"More than 800 looks like a lot, but it's actually a pitiful few. At the speed of rocket artillery, fifteen rocket launchers are ninety in one shot! Shi Meng's eyes swept over the faces of the left and right cadres and regimental deputies, after Gao Jinghui and Lu Long were left behind in Yang Liuqing and Cao Zhuang respectively, Shi Meng, the only remaining brigade commander, was the front-line commander pushed out by Chen Ming, and commanded the attacking troops of all departments in a unified manner.
"My opinion is, go all out, don't drag the mud and water, saturate the attack at once, blow up the guts of the Tartars, and then settle the battle with bayonets." Shi Meng, who has entered his forties, still has a 'miner' brute spirit in his personality. He clearly remembered what Chen Ming said, the courage of the Qing army in Tianjin City has become a chicken.
Just when Hailancha was circling around Lu Long, just when Haojiatai's scattered gunshots kept ringing out, suddenly a huge roar in the direction of Tianjin exploded again and again, and Hailancha looked at the people of Tianjin stupidly. Such a violent explosion, such a fierce bombardment, this is much more fierce than Yang Liuqing.
"......Boom" A rocket that fell into the room exploded violently, and the whole building was like a balloon that had been burst, and in an instant gunsmoke mixed with dust overflowed from the windows and doors, and then the bulging walls, broken beams, wooden pillars, and countless bricks and stones splashed the moment, and the whole house collapsed.
The rockets fell to the city of Tianjin without any continuity, and then the rocket artillery that moved quickly towards Tianjin, and when the rocket shells also fell into the north city of Tianjin, the explosion was denser and faster than the torrential rain.
The explosion of each rocket left the soul scattered, the houses collapsed and destroyed, and the corpses of the soldiers and panicked civilians were scattered.
In the remnants of the blown up rubble, the wounded were crushed under bricks and wood, groaning and screaming. The flesh and blood of the deceased were blurred, and the limbs were mutilated.
A few minutes later, the position of the north city of Tianjin was also covered by artillery fire from the Fu Han army. It was the liveliest place in Tianjin, with powerful rockets falling, most of the nearby houses being blown up or collapsed, and a fire burning in Beicheng. The severed limbs and stumps of the deceased were scattered everywhere, and the blood stained Tianjin red.
But not all people fled their homes before the war. The fire at the city gate affected the pond fish, and while the Qing soldiers guarding the northern city cried for their fathers and mothers, the blood of the common people was also sprinkled on the ground. But who cares about the two sides of the war?
The whole world was trembling, all shaking violently.
More than 800 rockets of various types were eliminated in just a quarter of an hour. The tank battalion was the first to storm the city of Tianjin, which was filled with gunsmoke.
The rich monk and Fuerle blocked the city gate with sandbags and stones, but there was no use, the city wall of Tianjin City has long been reduced from the original three zhang five feet to the current two zhang and four feet because of the flood soaking, but the city base is as wide as three zhang and two feet, which is the only case in the country.
Since the construction of Yongzheng three years, more than 40 years have passed, and the city body is declining in many places, and the soldiers pass the trenches and walk on the ground.
The soldiers of the tank battalion climbed the city wall by relying on a simple long ladder, and they still couldn't see the situation in Tianjin when they stood on the city wall, because the smoke and dust were far from dissipating, and those Qing troops who had not yet come to their senses saw the tall and iron-clad tank battalion soldiers rushing down, except for raising their hands to surrender, they were holding their heads and daring to take up arms to resist, and they could not find a single one out of ten.
"Rush, ......"
"Kill, ......" The wolf-like cry of the Han army resounded throughout Tianjin.
"Run......"
"Run, run. Chen Reverse has entered the city...... "This is the cry of the Qing soldiers."
A part of the soldiers quickly stepped forward to blow open the north city gate, and then carried the sandbags and stones that blocked the city gate, and a large number of soldiers of the Fu Han army climbed the city wall through the long ladder, and then rushed down the city wall without fear with bayonets, and rushed into the city of Tianjin.
Chen Ming saw that the morale of the Qing army in Tianjin was quickly scattered and messy from the beginning of the 'light smoke', and the 'light smoke' quickly dissipated in the sky over Tianjin like the morning mist irradiated by the sun.
"I'll go!" So rough, so ...... Sharp!
Chen Ming was also a little dumbfounded, he really couldn't find a suitable word to describe the scene in front of him, because Chen Ming himself didn't dare to be so 'desperate'. It can be seen that such a simple and crude blow just killed the Qing army in Tianjin.
"Junmen, let's go." The rich monk's Goshha persuaded the somewhat disheartened rich monk. The shouts of the Fu Han army sounded at the door, but the rich monk's forehead still looked like 'life has nothing to love'. The last middle-aged military attache with a two-poinsettia opaque glass and a one-eyed flower feather hugged the rich monk's forehead and shouted: "Hurry up and take the adults away!" ”
When danger comes, the first moment is the most terrifying. Therefore, the Qing army in the north of the city was completely dispersed, and the Qing army that was recoiled by the Qing army in the north of the city was also dispersed, but the Qing army horse team arranged in the east of the city rushed to the outside of the city in a panic, and also divided a team to obey the order of Fuller to attack the Fuhan army outside the north of the city, but after eating more than 100 rockets, they fled in embarrassment.
With the entry of a group of Han troops into the city, Tianjin Beicheng gradually settled down.
The people of Tianjin, who were blown away by the rockets, shouted and ran, scurrying through the streets and alleys and alleys. Some frightened people ran out of the house, and ran into the house, and ran out again, running around as if an arrow was chasing him from behind, and if he didn't run, he would die.
Until they calm down themselves, or they are caught by the Fu Han army.
War is painful and tragic for every civilian population. Where Chen Ming couldn't see, I don't know how many civilians were lying in pools of blood, and I don't know how many women and children were also involved. The whistling rockets pierced the sky with a long stream of light, but they brought death to the verge of death.
The northern city of Tianjin was full of smoke and chaos. Carriages and gun wagons were entangled, and cats, horses, livestock, cats and dogs were all in a panic. A foot trampled on the injured man, just to make himself fast for a second. There were groans of pain everywhere. Even many people fainted with fright. When the sound of the explosion died down and the shouting of killing cooled down, the noise in Tianjin was still there.
A mother collapsed in a pool of blood, surrounded by her husband and eldest son, with a headless baby in her arms. There were three small packages scattered next to the family of four, clothes scattered in a pool of blood, and a few black and yellow multigrain cakes......
Tianjin City was so easily captured by the Fu Han army, a large number of Qing troops chose to surrender, and the rest of the people ran to the east gate, ran to the military grain city, in the east of the Fulle under the horse team suffered a defeat and the Fu Han army outside the north of the city well water did not violate the river water, they received the defeated soldiers in the city, retreated to the military grain city.
The soldiers of the Fu Han Army turned to clean up the chaos in the city.
"Bang ......" A disheveled man's vest burst out with a blood flower and simply fell to the ground.
In a small courtyard not far from this man, a father and son fell in a pool of blood in the courtyard, and along the open door, you can also see a disjointed female corpse on the table of the Eight Immortals.
"Nephew Qin, you are not enough to beat ......"
In another two-entry mansion, a man with a strong face was escorted by two Fu Han soldiers and knelt on the ground, and at this moment the man raised his head and looked at a person not far away, his eyes were full of viciousness. In this small courtyard, five or six people fell to their knees, and four others fell in pools of blood.
Qin Jingwen smiled coldly, "Lao Tzu is not interesting enough, not enough friends? Bah. Look at what you turtles and grandsons look like. Taking advantage of the shortage of soldiers and horses, robbing and killing people, and raping women and children, if we don't kill you, our Fu Han army will have no royal law! ”
"To your uncle. Qin Dazi, you have a two-skinned face, what did you say when you used Brother Lao Tzu? Forgive somebody's past misdeeds. Now you're backtracking? Your Fu Han army has grabbed enough money, and after eating meat, Lao Tzu is still not happy, and Lao Tzu drinks soup......" This man was obviously not convinced.
"Dog meat can't be on the table." Qin Jingwen didn't bother to talk to this person anymore, and reached out and pulled out the knife from his waist, "You can only take what we give you, and no matter how good it is if you don't give it, you can't move a point." ”
"What do you think you are?"
"Remember this sentence well, reincarnate in the next life and be a new person, don't be so stupid Belle." The knife flashed, and blood scorned his trouser leg.
"This, this, and these two, they're all settled. The rest was thrown into a labor camp. Casually pointing to the four people in the rest of the crowd who had new blood on their hands, Qin Jingwen's face was full of spirit.
Tianjin has been 'liberated', and I can stand up openly and breathe.
The stunned Hailancha retreated to the south of Tianjin. Tianjin City was lost so easily, did it take an hour from the start of the bombardment of the Fu Han Army to the occupation of the entire Tianjin City?
"Rich monk, Fulle ......" Hailancha, who was riding his horse and running south, mentally recited these two names over and over again, if they were in front of him at the moment, Hailancha could choke them by the neck and strangle them.
In the distance, the city of Tianjin was still billowing with smoke, and Haojiatai's Fu Han army was still entangled with the rifled gun shooters of the Qing army, and the war was over. Hailancha is so sad.
"Your Highness, the landing force of the Navy Division has entered the Qili Sea. Do you want them to attack the military food city? ”
"Nope. Let them come to Tianjin quickly. (To be continued.) )
