Chapter 35: Miserable! Battle of Yaozhou (14)

However, it was said that Geng Jimao led the army into a minefield by mistake, and the explosions continued for a while, but in the night, there were no more wails, and the stumps and broken arms at the scene were miserable!

On the other side, the minefield was touched, and inside the iron net, it was immediately alert. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

However, under the leadership of Bai Gui, the captain of the garrison of Dengzhou Harbor, thousands of garrison troops entered a state of combat readiness according to the fortifications built in the east-west direction before.

At the same time, the large and small fortresses scattered in the defense area were also in place, and Qi Xianzong's 500 marines were the reserve of the entire garrison.

To say that the fortifications here are constructed, but it is Bai Gui's curriculum requirements in the Imperial Military Academy, the shooting fortifications have a bunker, a trench, and a firearm seat and layout, and this traffic fortification and shelter fortification are all available.

Although Geng's army is short of firearms, it mainly relies on cavalry charges, and the iron thistles and dark ditches under the iron net are enough to scrap his cavalry, but after all, there are nearly 10,000 troops in the place, and the garrison is only a mere 3,000 people, even if you add the marines, it is still less than half of Geng's army.

Of course, Bai Gui was so cautious, but there was another important reason, but it was because of the huge Dengzhou fleet behind him!

But on the other side, with a loud bang, the empire's new-style mines showed their might, and the hundreds of elite cavalry led by Geng Jimao disappeared into the billowing smoke for a while.

"Fucking bastard! How do you want Lao Tzu to explain to his eldest brother! ”

In the face of everything in front of him, Geng Zhongyu beat his chest unconsciously, at this moment, he actually felt sad, but he was asking himself whether this trip to troubled waters was worth it, or was it not worth it?

It's just that after a moment of sadness, Geng Zhongyu's heart gradually brightened.

"Send out a search team and rescue the survivors immediately!"

And not long after the order was issued, a flesh-and-blood figure appeared in front of Geng Zhongyu, which was carried over by two sergeants on their shoulders, but who else could it be if it wasn't Geng Jimao?

Although the flesh and blood were blurred, the colorful tiger engraved on his chest was faintly visible, and this was the logo of his Geng family.

To say that Geng Jimao at this moment has picked up half his life, because at the moment of the explosion, his pro-army guards pounced on him and blocked the fatal fragments for him with his body, and only half of the hundreds of brothers who accompanied him Geng Jimao could come back during this period.

But because they are still careful, if not, the loss must be more than that.

"Come on, send the major general and the wounded brothers to the rear army to recuperate!"

After arranging all this, what is in front of Geng Zhongyu is still the problem of this mine array, to say that mines have a long history in the Ming Dynasty, what kind of official pavilion cannon, he Geng Zhongyu has not seen it, but it is the first time he has encountered such a powerful mine in front of him.

What to do?

At this moment, Geng Zhongyu was in trouble, and time became more and more urgent, but as a former army, he couldn't even get through the minefield in front of him.

"I think the small flag before I came must be a minefield marker, hey, if it weren't for the young general's eagerness, I'm afraid there would be room for redemption here!"

Facing the mess in front of him, someone in Geng's army sighed.

However, just when everyone was puzzled about the minefield, Geng Zhongyu moved.

"Come on, the ten Furlong cannons in the general are here!"

Among Geng's army, although firearms are a little rare, there are still five red-coat cannons, dozens of furlong machines, and one or two thousand large and small birds.

And in Geng Zhongyu's front army here, there happened to be ten Furlong machines.

In the face of the commander's orders, the generals were a little puzzled, could it be that the commander wanted to bombard the other party with the Furlong machine, but it was obvious that this Furlong machine did not have that range, not to mention that this Furlong machine had a short barrel, far less than the range of the redcoat gun.

But the commander's order, everyone did not dare to disobey, not to mention that now for everyone, it can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

"Put!"

With Geng Zhongyu's order, dozens of Furlong machines were launched together, spraying dozens of fire colors, and at dawn, they were still very dazzling!

And as the Fran machine continued to spew out tongues of fire, live bullets smashed into the grove not far away, followed by bursts of explosions from the grove.

At this moment, everyone seemed to understand Geng Zhongyu's methods, but one by one they were happy.

"Your Excellency is clever!"

And here, through the telescope, inside the iron net, Bai Gui and Qi Xianzong also saw this move, and they also sighed unconsciously with emotion.

"But it's a master!"

Because of the skill of mine clearance, most of them obtained it from military schools, and it is obvious that this use of artillery to clear mines has not been exposed to in military schools, so they have such feelings.

"Someone! After copying this law, pass it on to the Imperial Military Academy! ”

......

The time of a stick of incense passed quickly, and in a roar, it was a hard way for Geng Zhongyu.

"Come on, bring two oxen over and let the untouchables drive them away, and the army will follow!"

Seeing that the road was smashed, Geng Zhongyu did not dare to delay in the slightest, and hurriedly ordered to go down, and the cattle and untouchables in his mouth were just trophies obtained from nearby villages along the way.

To say that since they crossed the sea, they have been suppressed too much, and now they want to rebel against the Ming Dynasty, and naturally their nature will be exposed.

But it was said that under the leadership of the old scalper, the scene that was almost cleaned up was said to be a lot safer, and through the entire grove, except for one who ran to the side because of urgency to urinate and stepped on a mine, which killed more than a dozen people, on the whole, the more than 2,000 people and horses survived safely.

"General, they're coming!"

In the telescope, Qi Xianzong and the others were already aware of the other party's actions.

"Order, all artillery reloaded, just wait for the enemy to enter the shelling point, immediately open fire!"

With Bai Gui's order, the entire garrison was busy.

And the shooting point on Bai Gui's mouth was the guardrail ditch under the iron fence.

However, it is said that because the entire garrison is responsible for the defense and security of the entire Dengzhou seaport, it has 30 active field artillery pieces (imitation Napoleon gun design), and in more than a dozen pillboxes throughout the entire defense area, there are more than a dozen heavy cannons, and these heavy cannons are even much more powerful than the red-coated cannons, because these guys, that can even cover the entire Dengzhou seaport!

Although Dengzhou Harbor did not have any fortifications within the city walls, because of these existences, it can be said that even Dengzhou City is not as good as the defense here.

The thieves were the first to attack Dengzhou Harbor here, but Bai Gui was still puzzled at first!

"It seems that these guys are going crazy to go to sea!"
