Chapter 421: Sneak Attack

Shen Xuan killed the Seventh Prince, and Princess Wakou also released him as he said and let him serve under the throne. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The first thing to do was to let the warships of the Japanese invaders approach the port of Tianjin safely in the thick fog.

Shen Xuan was very sure of this, after all, he was very familiar with it in Tianjin City.

Under the orders of the princess, the warships of the Wako were connected in series with thick iron chains. Shen Xuan was escorted to a Qing ship and was responsible for leading the way in front.

Princess Wako said first, if Shen Xuan took the warship out of place this time, he would immediately cut off his head. No, now he was commanding the ship, but he was carrying two katana around his neck.

He didn't dare to complain about this, for the sake of his own life, he tried his best to identify the direction and adjust the ship to walk on the course.

Although the dense fog on the sea was large, Shen Xuan relied on his experience and finally brought the warship to a place less than fifty meters from the wharf without danger.

The katana around his neck finally left, and Shen Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that his life was saved.

Although the four Japanese warships were close to less than 50 meters above the sea area of the pier, the dense fog on the sea had not cleared, and the visibility was only about 10 meters.

In other words, it is still impossible to see the situation of the Yejiabao army here, let alone how they arranged the defense. After frowning and pondering, the princess ordered a dozen good men to go ashore in a small boat to investigate.

As long as they find out the deployment of the Yejiabao army's forces and carry out artillery bombardment, they will definitely be able to give them a head-on attack. With a little luck, it is not impossible to win this victory and recapture the captured ship.

Princess Wako's idea was reasonable and there was nothing wrong with it, but what he met was Ye Shaolong. A man who doesn't know how to fight, but is extremely smart, when he meets him, he is destined to have no good fruit to eat for the princess.

A dozen or so pirates acted as spies, slowly approaching the dock in small boats, and finally went ashore. After finding no one, they immediately dispersed and continued to dive into the depths.

A hundred meters away from the shore of the wharf, Su Can and the Iron Tower, Li Chengke and the three of them saw all the movements of the Japanese Kou clearly.

Su Can smiled and said, "Do these would-be robbers think they don't know what to do? ”

The tower immediately answered: "Or let me bring people up and destroy them." ”

Su Can continued to sneer: "Why do you need to use a knife to kill them, the brothers of the musket battalion can let them come and go, watch slowly, if they dare to go ten meters further, they will all die." ”

As soon as Su Can's voice fell, the gunfire suddenly rang out, and he saw more than a dozen Japanese warriors who were rushing forward, and at the same time as the gunshots rang out, they were all the same, and their bodies were stunned, and then they fell to the ground with a bang.

Without even a single scream, he died in a fit of rage, and at a distance of several tens of meters, the gunners of the musket battalion were already able to easily hit anything.

Unaware of such a Japanese coquent, as if it were a great target, it was naturally easily dealt with by the gunners of the musket battalion.

"Hey......."

Su Canyin laughed, shook his head and said, "It's a pity, it's a pity that there are too few of them, otherwise there will be no problem in killing a few more." ”

Tie Ta glanced at Su Can, and hid back in the bunker without interest, when he didn't kill the enemy, it would be boring for him.

More than a dozen Japanese warriors were easily eliminated, and the men of the musket battalion immediately hid back in their bunkers, waiting for the next attack of the Japanese invaders.

The princess waited for a moment, but never waited for a signal from her men. Looking up, the sky was almost completely bright, and the fog had cleared a lot, and now I could see the situation twenty meters away.

Without waiting for the news of the spies, the princess did not dare to send anyone forward, just now she vaguely seemed to hear the gunshots, but because it was too short, she was not sure if something had happened to her subordinates.

Fortunately, it was not long before dawn, and she had just waited with peace of mind. When the damn fog clears, it's time for her to launch a general attack.

After a period of contact with the Yejiabao Army, she also felt that it was indeed difficult. But it's just difficult, and it's not impossible to defeat them.

The advantage is still occupied by the Japanese Kou, and the Japanese princess knows this. As time slowly passed, the princess ordered someone to disassemble the warship that had been linked up again.

Then all the guns were aimed at the direction of the dock, as soon as the dense fog dispersed, the artillery fire would be ruthlessly poured on the body of the Yejiabao army.

Ye Shaolong climbed the lighthouse and condescendingly observed the situation of the entire dock, just now a Japanese warrior came to investigate, but was killed by the musket battalion.

Ye Shaolong saw these clearly, and he also recognized the performance of the musket battalion. It's just that the Japanese seem to have seen through the ambush on this dock, and they haven't sent anyone to investigate.

Knowing that the Japanese would not come back if they waited any longer, Ye Shaolong simply ordered the whole army to retreat two hundred meters first and arrive at the second line of defense.

Here, even the big red-clothed main gun on the warship can't cover it, it is the safe distance measured by Ye Shaolong.

It's a pity that Ye Shaolong never has the strength of the sea, so he can't give a real head-on blow to the Japanese Kou. Later, if you win the battle, you can't capture them, you can only kill them all.

Eventually, the fog lifted and everyone could see as far as the eye could see. But when the princess saw through her binoculars that the dozen or so good hands were all dead, she was furious.

When he gave the order to start a carpet bombardment of the docks, there was a roar of artillery and black shells raining down.

The explosion made the earth of the entire dock tremble slightly, and the momentum was very majestic, which made people feel palpitations after hearing it.

From the moment the first artillery fire was fired, the sound of artillery fire has hardly been interrupted. It wasn't until the artillery fire had blown the entire dock to the brink that the princess ordered a ceasefire.

The flat ground was smashed into craters by shells. The power of the red-coated cannon is indeed brave. No one can stop you.

Ye Shaolong put down the binoculars, a smile hooked up at the corner of his mouth, the widow was really strong, and he actually scraped off a layer of ground from the dock.

Ye Shaolong didn't dare to hesitate, but hurriedly ordered the whole army to start withdrawing.

Under the baptism of artillery fire, Ye Shaolong and the army immediately retreated to the second line of defense without saying a word. Only then did he stop and continue to observe the movements of the Wakos.

After ordering a ceasefire, Princess Wakou looked at the mess all over the ground, but failed to blow up even one of the Yejiabao troops.

Such a strange thing was actually encountered by herself, and Princess Wako was very angry. But there is nothing to be done, now she only has artillery fire left, but she can also suppress Ye Shaolong.

After the bombing, the entire wharf was almost no longer what it used to be, and it was full of devastation, not to mention, it is estimated that it will inevitably pay a great price for repairs in the future.
