Chapter 568 No matter how hard the bones are, they must be gnawed down!

"Gai Zhou Wei! Oh, my God! ”

After Chen Yaoyang came to his senses, .

The Tiger Ben Army really didn't take the Tartars in their eyes, and actually tried to sneak attack Gaizhou Wei at this time! Gaizhou Wei is the place where the Tartars are heavily fortified, is it so easy to be attacked? Chen Yaoyang wanted to remind Hu Benjun to be careful, but in the end he didn't say anything.

"Get up!"

"Ready to go!"

Huang Shijun shouted without pity.

Chen Yaoyang had no choice but to wake up and follow Huang Shijun to start doing things. He is actually not stupid, and he can still see the changes in the situation very clearly. Now that he has fallen into the hands of the Tiger Army, if he doesn't cooperate well, there will be no good end for him. It is said that Zhang Zhun kills people and never relents. On the contrary, if he can please the Tiger Army, maybe there is another way.

Soon, two squads of Tiger Army marines came aboard. It was the first time for the sailors of the Tianjin Navy Division to see the Huben Army Marines up close, and they were very curious when they saw their strange outfits, and many people secretly watched from the side. However, the soldiers of the Marine Corps simply did not have time to deal with them. They were all busy counting their gear.

First, boxes of Mini bullets and cardboard gunpowder were brought in. Subsequently, there was a considerable number of ** packs. Except for a few particularly large **bags, all the others are five-pound standard **bags. It has been proven through actual combat that this standard ** package is very applicable to both defense and attack. It's like a grenade in later generations. Tiger Ben guns, Mini bullets, and ** bags constitute the basic equipment of the Tiger Ben Army.

When it was about to be the end of the day, several officers of the Tiger Ben Army appeared surrounded by a burly young man. Needless to say, this young man, of course, is Zhang Zhun, the commander of the Tiger Ben Army and the Metropolitan Governor of the Houjun Army. By his side, there were various commanders of the Marine Corps, including Fang He, Liu Dong, Zhu Chengtai, Lu Liangyu, Gao Yu, Zhang Yin and others. In addition, Zhou Yanyu, the co-leader of the Tiger Ben Army's Jiezi Battalion, and the latest team Lei Shenzhou are also there.

In addition to all the marines, the Tiger Ben Army's attack on Gaizhouwei also dispatched a joint of the Jiezi Battalion, which was always ten squads, about 600 people. Plus the sailors of the Navy, almost a thousand people. This is most of the power that Zhang Zhun can draw at the moment. The other troops have tasks to undertake.

"Dizzy! Zhang Zhun is here! ”

Chen Yaoyang suddenly felt that his eyes were a little dark.

He didn't expect that Zhang Zhun would actually board his ship. Is this an honor, or is it ...... Moreover, the ship ...... Can it still be considered its own ship? It looks like a Tiger Army's ship, right? The current captain is Huang Shijun, not himself.

What made him even more depressed was that under the stimulation of Huang Shijun, those sailors of the Tianjin Navy Division were actually quite willing to work for the Tiger Army. It may be that the Tiger Ben Army has fed them well, or it may be that they already know that this battle against the Tartars, they are just fighting at sea, and they do not need to have direct contact with the Tartars.

"Your Excellency, you're all set."

The commander of the Marines of the Tiger Army, Fang He, reported to Zhang Zhun.

In fact, it was the battleship of the Tianjin Navy Division that loaded the Huben Army Marines. The soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army's Jiezi Battalion were on another warship. Because the Tiger Army needs to prepare for the upcoming big battle, the transportation task is very busy, and for the time being, only two warships can be put into operation to attack Gaizhouwei. The commander of the other battleship was the old captain Li Jicheng.

"Let's go!"

Zhang Zhun nodded and said casually.

The fleet then left the harbor and slowly headed northeast.

From Liujiapu port to Gaizhouwei, it is just a straight line through the Bohai Bay. There has always been no wind and waves in Bohai Bay, and there is certainly no difficulty in sailing. Since it was winter, the wind was mainly blowing on the sea, so the speed of the fleet was not very fast. It was not until late the next evening that the fleet finally reached its destination.

In the past two days, Chen Yaoyang had no choice but to get along with Zhang Zhun day and night. Slowly, he also got to know Zhang Zhun a little more. He was shocked to find that every time Zhang Zhun ate, he ate with the officers and soldiers. He eats whatever the officers and men eat, and he never pays attention to it. Moreover, every time he eats, he is still very fast. The others haven't finished eating, he's already full.

He's not pretentious, he's pretending to eat a little here, and then go back to eat the small stove. Some high-ranking officers of the Tianjin Navy Division, including Chen Yaoyang, have also done this. However, under the supervision of everyone, Zhang Zhun did not have the opportunity to eat Xiaozao at all. Not only did Zhang Zhun not, but neither did the other Tiger Ben Army officers. All officers and men of the Tiger Ben Army are treated equally.

Zhang Zhun's actions gave the officers and men of the Tianjin Navy Division a great touch. They are all very emotional, being a soldier in the Tiger Army, that is really like a person, not like a dog. Whether it is in terms of treatment or status, the Tiger Ben Army is too much better than the Tianjin Water Division. Many officers and soldiers of the Tianjin Navy Division had the idea of defecting to the Huben Army.

And Zhang Zhun also seized the opportunity to do ideological work on the spot for the officers and men of the Tianjin Navy Division. The Tiger Army Navy needs a large number of professional and technical personnel, and these technical personnel cannot be trained in a short period of time. Although the Tianjin Navy Division has no combat effectiveness, it is extremely top-notch. However, that is all the reason at the top, and has nothing to do with the officers and soldiers at the bottom. As a matter of fact, as long as the officers and men of the lower echelons of the Tianjin Navy Division are given good treatment and strict discipline, they will also be able to burst out into combat effectiveness.

Sometimes, Zhang Zhun feels that he is now about to become a political commissar. On land, a group of Cangzhou Volunteers were first given a class on how to create a base area. Then, in the warehouse, it was given to the fighters of the Marine Corps for pre-battle mobilization. Now, he is doing ideological work for the sailors of the Tianjin Naval Division. There are hardly any breaks in between. Fortunately, it doesn't take any energy to talk endlessly, otherwise, the dragon meat will be replenished.

In fact, Huang Shijun's information is a little bit off. The purpose of Zhang Zhun's trip was not to cover Zhouwei, but to Lianyun Island. Lianyun Island is on the west side of Gaizhouwei (now Gaixian County, Liaoning Province, very close to Yingkou City), less than five miles from the land. Like Changsheng Island, which is hundreds of miles to the south, it is also an island with a very important location. When the Ming army still had the ability to counterattack Liaodong, Lianyun Island was also a springboard for the Ming army.

[Author's note: Four hundred years have passed, and now there is no Lianyun Island, which is connected to the land. The former site of Lianyun Island is in the westernmost part of Gai County, Liaoning Province. 】

Fearing shelling by the Huben navy, the Tartars retreated most of their forces near the coast, but Gaizhouwei did not. On the contrary, the Tartars were heavily manned in the Gaizhou Guard, installed cannons, and prepared to hold on. The reason is very simple, Gaizhouwei is very close to Liaoyang. If the enemy conquers Gaizhouwei, he can directly attack Liaoyang in the north. And once Liaoyang falls, Shenyang will also be in danger.

At the same time, Gaizhouwei is located in the depths of Bohai Bay, more than 300 miles away from Changsheng Island in the south, and is in the far corner of Bohai Bay. Therefore, the Tatars still have illusions, thinking that the Tiger Ben Army has not penetrated into the innermost part of the Bohai Bay so quickly, and they may continue to support it for a while while in Gaizhouwei.

In fact, if the Tiger Ben army went ashore from Gaizhouwei and marched all the way east, it could also cut off the connection between Shenyang and Fuzhou Wei and Jinzhouwei. It is even possible to sever relations between the Tatars and North Korea. In other words, it is to surround all the Tartars on the Liaodong Peninsula and in Korea. This is absolutely unbearable for the Tartars. Therefore, Gaizhou Wei must be defended.

The reason why Zhang Zhun chose to take out part of his troops to attack Gaizhouwei at this time was to make the Tartars in Liaodong restless. He did not expect that the Tartars would transfer some personnel from the troops entering the army to strengthen the defense of Liaodong, but only hoped that the Tartars would never be at peace from now on. Even if the Tiger Ben Army does not have the strength to counterattack Liaodong on a large scale and constantly cause trouble for the Tartars, it is still possible.

That's right, it's to constantly cause trouble for the Tartars.

The battlefield in Cangzhou has concentrated the main force of the Tiger Ben Army, and there is no longer a need for the Marine Corps to intervene, they should be put into other battlefields. Although there are not many Tartars on Lianyun Island, there are hundreds of people at most. But mosquito meat is also meat, isn't it? Today there are dozens, tomorrow hundreds, as long as you persevere, you can continue to consume the vital power of the Tartars.

On the front line of Shanhaiguan, it has always been the Tartars who create pressure on the Ming army and create trouble for the Ming army. Now, the Tiger Army is going to give the Tartars a taste of being bullied all the time. The feeling of bullying people all day long is of course good, but once you are bullied all day long, there is a good show to watch.

The Dengzhou Sailor, who was originally stationed on Changsheng Island, was also forcibly moved to Lianyun Island by the Tartars at this time. Because it was too far away from the Tiger Army, the officers and soldiers of the Dengzhou Naval Division did not dare to attack the Tartars. They feared that even if they killed the Tartars, they would not be able to escape to the Tigers. Moreover, the Tartars' monitoring of the Dengzhou Navy Division is too strict.

The time when the fleet of the Tiger Ben Army arrived outside Lianyun Island was exactly November 17. The so-called fifteenth moon and sixteen rounds, even though it is seventeenth today, the moonlight is still very bright. Even if you don't use a clairvoyant mirror, you can clearly see that Lianyun Island is lying in front of the Tiger Ben Army's fleet.

Zhang Zhun stood on the deck, holding a clairvoyant mirror, and carefully looked at Lianyun Island. It is an irregularly shaped island that generally looks like a footboard. The Tiger Ben Army is currently in front of the toes of this footboard. The tartar, on the other hand, is in the middle of the soles of the feet.

According to intelligence, on Lianyun Island, there are 300 Tartars, that is, the strength of a Niu Lu. This Tartar's bull is inlaid with a blue flag. After the blue flag has been adjusted, the strength is still very strong, and there are more than 20 cattle records. The owner of the blue banner is the seventh Bel Abatai among the slave chiefs. This man, like Amin, is known for his bravery and good fighting.

Abatai was originally subordinate to the Blue Banner and was not the owner of the Banner. In this adjustment, Huang Taiji took advantage of the great opportunity when Dolgon and Duoduo were in prison to rectify the Eight Banners. Strengthen yourself and exclude dissent. Abatai saw that Huang Taiji was powerful, so he expressed his allegiance to Huang Taiji through Dai Shan. Huang Taiji also needed Abatai's bravery, so he appointed him as the banner owner of the blue flag, and also strengthened the combat effectiveness of the blue flag.

The primary goal of the Tiger Ben Army is to annihilate all the Tartars on Lianyun Island. It was a battle of forcible assault. The Navy's Flying Dragon Cannon can't cover Lianyun Island entirely. And the stronghold of the Tartars is in the middle of Lianyun Island, outside the range of naval artillery. Therefore, after arriving on the island, it was necessary to rely on the Tiger Army and the Marine Corps to solve the battle on their own.

It is obvious that the Tartars have specially fortified their strongholds based on a possible attack by the Tiger Army. They will not give in easily, they will inevitably resist to the end. Once the battle starts, I am afraid that it will not be over in a day or two. This battle is also a test of the Marine Corps' ability to attack fortified positions. Previously, the Tiger Army had not launched a battle against the Tartars.

"No matter how hard the bones are, they must be gnawed down!"

This is Zhang Zhun's original words, and it is also the reason why Zhang Zhun personally went to the front line to command.

The Marines of the Tiger Army currently have only five squads of strength, and they must use their own strength to completely annihilate these three hundred Tartars. As for the soldiers of the Jiezi Battalion of the Tiger Ben Army who assisted in the battle, the main task was to counterattack the counterattack of the Gaizhou Wei Tartars. Once the battle starts, the Tartars of Gaizhouwei will definitely be alarmed.

Between Lianyun Island and Gaizhouwei, there is only less than three miles of waterway in the narrowest place, and even if you use a sampan, you can rush over. Therefore, the fighters of the Jiezi battalion must block the counterattack of the Gaizhou Wei Tartars. In other words, these three hundred tartars must be killed. It must also be annihilated before the Tartars of Gaizhou Wei counterattack.

"Change boats!"

Fang He ordered loudly.

Marines went down to the sampan next to the side along the sides of the ship. Then, they urged the sampan and sailed towards the southern coast of Lianyun Island. The Tartars of Lianyun Island did not react in the slightest, as if they had not noticed the arrival of the Tiger Ben Army at all.

"Quick!"

"Quick!"

"Quick!"

Gao Yu and Zhang Yin were both constantly yelling.

The team under the command of both of them was crowded on a sampan, which was a very dangerous thing. In case of an accident, everyone will fall overboard. Although after falling into the water, the warship next to it can come to the rescue immediately, and there should be no major casualties, but the water temperature in Bohai Bay in November can be imagined. Besides, no one can afford to pay this responsibility for delaying the course of the battle.

"Poof!"

The sampan finally reached the shore, and the seal was the first to jump down.

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

Other Marines also jumped out of the boat and waded ashore.
