Chapter 570: Long Live the Grand Governor! Long live the Tiger Army!
Chapter 570: Long Live the Grand Governor! Long live the Tiger Army!
Zahai was not at all afraid of the bullets of the Tiger Army, he carried a mace, and the Minnie bullets flying around him seemed to completely bypass him. Other Tartars, inspired by him, also surged upwards one after another, not afraid of the shooting of Mini's bullets.
"Han dog!"
Zahai shouted loudly and raised his mace high.
This is his habitual move to fight bloody battles with the other party. In the past, when he engaged the Ming army, he rushed forward without fear of death, and then tore the Ming army's defense system to pieces. As long as he gets close to him and wields his mace, the casualties of the Ming army will immediately rise in a straight line.
However, in front of Tiger Ben, he is scum! He didn't have a chance to come in front of the Tiger Army at all! The silver-white armor on his body is really eye-catching. Several Tiger Army soldiers aimed at him. Among them, there is Zhang Yin himself. Zhang Yin saw the danger of this guy at a glance, and of course he had to take care of him first.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
After a series of gunshots, Zha Hai fell on his back, kicked his legs helplessly, and did not make any other movements. At least five Mini bullets hit him in various vital parts of his body, and at least three of them hit him directly near the center of his eyebrow. Under such a heavy blow, even Da Luo Jinxian could not survive.
When the huge mace fell, it hit the foot of a nearby Tartar, causing the Tartar to fall to its knees. Then a Mini bullet flew and killed the tartar to the ground. The Tartar next to him tried to bypass the mace, but was also shot dead by the Tiger Army. Back and forth, around the mace, at least five Tartar corpses fell.
The rest of the tartars were also quickly cleaned up. Zhang Yin quickly counted the results of the battle, and killed a total of eighty-three Tartars. In other words, there were more than two hundred Tartars, huddled on the hills. In the middle of Lianyun Island, there is a bulging mountain pack. Outside the mountain bag, there are cliffs. Inside the mountain bag, there are ravines and ravines.
"Keep going!"
Fang He gestured,
Soon, the Marines were at the foot of the mountain.
In the middle of Lianyun Island, there is a rugged cliff, which may have been caused by the movement of the earth's crust in ancient times. The tartars are hidden on top of the cliffs. In the middle of the cliffs, there are ravines and deep valleys, which are not conducive to the movement of large troops. The remnants of the Tartars are hiding in such a complex terrain. And the Tigerben Army Marines want to completely clean up the Tartars in such a complex terrain.
The real battle began.
……
After sending the soldiers of the Marine Corps ashore, Huang Shijun and Li Jicheng both commanded the warships to slowly leave the shore and re-enter the deep water.
Hearing the gunshots coming from the island, Chen Yaoyang muttered in his heart, is this how the Tiger Ben Army fights? This is how they fought, and they were able to win the Battle of Huangxian? It's incredible! With such a few people, they dare to go up to Lianyun Island and fight hard with Tartars, are they really not afraid of death?
Chen Yaoyang was not forbidden to watch all the actions of the Tiger Army, so he could see the actions of the Tiger Army clearly from beginning to end. He counted carefully, and there were only about 300 marines ashore. There are not a lot of materials to carry ashore. Chen Yaoyang found it hard to believe that only 300 marines could fight for the entire Lianyun Island. Is Zhang Zhun really so confident in his subordinates?
Chen Yaoyang learned from Huang Shijun that on Lianyun Island, there was at least one Niulu's Tartar. A Tartar of Niulu, that is close to three hundred people. If the Ming army attacked, it would need at least five times as many troops as the Tartars. If there were ten times as much, it would be the best. He couldn't help but wonder, these people in the Tiger Ben Army couldn't be done by God? I want to go head-to-head with the Tartars one-on-one?
"Let's go."
Zhang Zhun said lightly.
"Raise the sails!"
Huang Shijun gave a loud order.
The sailors raised the sails of the ships that had landed. Due to the still northerly winds, the speed of the ships was still very slow. Since the Marines had disembarked and a large amount of supplies had been dragged to the ship by them, now, the battleship was much empty, only Zhang Zhun and the snipers around him.
I don't know why, the sailors of the Tianjin Navy Division are a little afraid to approach those snipers. They feel that these snipers always seem to be indifferent, as if they don't take human life seriously at all. In fact, what sniper does not have more than ten Tartars in his hands? They were all silently busy with their own business, either overhauling their weapons, or sleeping with their heads, and some people were making wooden sculptures with daggers.
The warship bypassed Lianyun Island and continued to sail north along the sea surface on the west side of Lianyun Island. On the way to sail, Zhang Zhun held a clairvoyant mirror and carefully looked at Lianyun Island. Faintly, you can hear the gunfire coming from the island, which should be the Marines and the Tartars engaged in battle. Completely different from Chen Yaoyang's worries, Zhang Zhun is full of confidence in the combat effectiveness of the Marine Corps. This is the troop he's best at training!
If it weren't for the complicated terrain on Lianyun Island, the Marines would only need to dispatch three squads to beat a Niulu's Tartar all over the place. Guarding the island is by no means a Tatar's specialty. There are tiger guns, Minnie bullets, ** bags, and even the Tartars on Cloud Island, none of them can run away. Unfortunately, the cannon still could not be put into service. This kind of island attack, if there are a few thunder cannons to help, the battle will be solved faster.
"My lord, Centipede Bay has arrived."
Moments later, Huang Shijun reported to Zhang Zhun.
Zhang Zhun raised the clairvoyant mirror and carefully looked at the bay in front of him. Over there, it is the temporary base of the Dengzhou Naval Division. After Changsheng Island was attacked by the Tiger Ben Navy, the Tartars retreated the remnants of the Dengzhou Navy Division here. Because the land that sticks into the sea seems to be the tentacles of centipedes, it is also called centipede bay.
In fact, Centipede Bay is not suitable as a naval base, the water here is too shallow to dock large warships. There are no nearby mountains that block the wind and waves, and when the north wind is strong, it is easy for the boats to collide with each other and cause damage. However, for the Tartars, this is their only option. If they retreated, they would have to tow all the ships to land.
Inside Centipede Bay, you can clearly see that there are five large fortune boats. They are two No. 2 ships and three No. 3 ships. There were also a dozen or so other small vessels. This is all the belongings of the Dengzhou Sailor. When the Dengzhou Navy Division surrendered to the Tartars, there was definitely more than that. But after a few tosses, there are only these five ships. When I think about it, I think it's really sad enough.
I don't know how many officers and soldiers of the Dengzhou Water Division are left? In the past time, it is believed that they have been tortured enough by the Tartars. After Luo Kai went back, there has been no news. None of the Dengzhou sailors came to forgive their sins with the heads of the tartars, as if they didn't know anything about it. Guo Lin, the general of the Dengzhou Navy Division, has no news.
"Tell Li Jicheng to let them attack from the right!"
Zhang Zhun put down the clairvoyant mirror and said in a deep voice.
Huang Shijun agreed, and soon hung out the flag.
Soon, Li Jicheng responded and was ready for battle. The soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army's Jiezi Battalion on his ship were also all ready for battle. In the next battle, the soldiers of the Jiezi battalion led by Zhou Yanyu were the main force of the battle. Sniper detachments, in general, are attacked.
"Lean straight up!"
Zhang Zhun said in a deep voice.
Geographically speaking, Gaizhouwei can be regarded as near the heart of the Tartars. The Tiger Benjun stabbed him fiercely here, and even if he couldn't hurt the Tartar's heart, he would let the Tartar lie on the bed for a few days. Isn't it cool when you Tartars bully Han Chinese? Now that I've been bullied, it must be more enjoyable, right?
"Prepare for a broadside battle!"
Huang Shijun immediately shouted loudly,
Chen Yaoyang and the others couldn't help but be a little nervous. Centipede Bay is really close to Gaizhouwei, almost next to each other, less than ten miles away at most. The gunshots on Lianyun Island, as well as the rising black smoke columns, should have alarmed Gai Zhouwei's Tartars. The cavalry troops of the Tartars in Gaizhou Guard will definitely be dispatched quickly.
Carefully calculate the time, from the dispatch of the Tartar cavalry to the reinforcement of Centipede Bay, which is the time of a stick of incense. In other words, the Tiger Ben Army Navy must end the battle and evacuate Centipede Bay within a stick of incense. Otherwise, it was possible to directly confront the cavalry of the Tartars.
Fortunately, the escort gunboats of the Tiger Army Navy gave Chen Yaoyang and the others some comfort. In addition to the two No. 2 Fu ships, the Huben Navy also has five Cangshan ships to escort them. Apparently, these gunboats were fully combat-ready. As long as the cavalry of the Tartars appeared on the shore, they would definitely be shelled by the Tigers and the Navy.
"Quack!"
Suddenly, Centipede Bay let out a burst of screams.
Apparently, it was the Tartar lookout post that spotted the Tiger Navy's fleet.
"Dangdang!"
Immediately after, a foul smell of alarm bells rang.
Zhang Zhun frowned, Tartar actually knew how to use the alarm bell. It seems that the Tartars also know how to keep pace with the times! If I think the things of the Han people are easy to use, I use the things of the Han people. Immediately, Zhang Zhun found out from the clairvoyant mirror that the one stationed in the port was not the real Tartar, but the second Tartar. Judging by the outfit of the other party, it is very likely that it is a servant army of North Korea.
Let's just say, the Tartars are certainly not willing to do such a thankless job, lying in the harbor all day long in the sun and blowing the sea breeze. This kind of rough work is only done by the two tartars. I only saw the two Tartars, who were alarmed by the alarm bells, ran out of the barracks on the shore one after another, trying to seize the ships and fire at the Tiger Ben Navy.
The ships of the Tiger Ben Army approached like this. The second Tartar tried to open fire, and the Tiger Army Navy was not afraid at all. The second Tartar is the same as the Tartar, and he is not an expert in naval warfare at all. Even if you fight to get a few shots from the other party, you have to paste it directly. As long as you put it on, those two tartars are finished.
"Close!"
"Close!"
"Close!"
Huang Shijun and Li Jicheng both gave calm orders.
The distance between the two sides is rapidly shortening.
100 zhang ......
Eighty zhang ......
Fifty zhang ......
"Bang!"
Meng Xia was the first to shoot.
"Poof!"
A two-tartar fell straight from the edge of the deck into the water, splashing a bunch of spray.
As soon as the gunshots rang out, the port of Centipede Bay suddenly became lively. A large number of two tartars, running out from more places. Some tried to find a place to hide, others tried to get on the boat and fire, and others stood still, apparently at a loss. The funniest thing is that some of the two tartars jumped directly into the sea, and they didn't know what they were going to do.
Zhang Zhun held up the clairvoyant mirror, glanced at it, and found that the number of two tartars in the port of Centipede Bay was really quite a lot, maybe five or six hundred people. It seems that the Tartars' troops are still sufficient! A small port is garrisoned by five or six hundred servants! In the back of the Gaizhou Guard, the number of Tartars, must be more.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Lu Yidian, Huang Xian, Meng Xia, Liu Mang, Brother Wei and others also shot almost at the same time.
They are both sharpshooters who can destroy an enemy with a single Mini shot.
"Poof!"
"Poof!"
"Poof!"
The Tartars on the ship were constantly knocked down.
The snipers around Zhang Zhun are all experienced figures, so it is naturally not a problem to deal with such a little Tartar. As long as the two Tartars appear in their sight and there is no effective obstacle, what awaits them is definitely a sudden Mini bullet. Many of the two tartars were running in a hurry, and suddenly they fell to the ground, and then stopped moving.
After a while, the two tartars near the trestle were basically cleaned up. Some of the remaining Ertars also hid behind the obstacles, not daring to lean out. However, the sound of the alarm bell kept ringing, obviously anxiously asking for help from Gaizhouwei's Tartars.
Chen Yaoyang and the others were greatly amazed and shocked, the firearms of the Tiger Ben Army were too fierce. At such a distance, the enemy was beaten and fled, and it was a mess. No wonder the loss of Tatars in Huangxian will be so great. Tartars are also flesh and blood, how can they stop such a powerful firearm? The combat effectiveness of the Tiger Ben Army is really amazing! No wonder Zhang Zhun dared to send only 300 people to Lianyun Island, it was really ...... It's really too strong!
He couldn't help but secretly rejoice that he didn't choose to fight against the Tiger Ben Navy that night, otherwise, he would definitely sink in the sea now. The fire guns of the Tiger Ben Army are already so powerful, will the cannons on their battleships be bad? No wonder the Tiger Army Navy is so arrogant, others do have the capital to be arrogant!
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
On Li Jicheng's ship, more violent gunfire was heard.
Zhou Yanyu led an association of tiger army, with a total of 300 people. They kept firing, and the gunfire naturally became more dense and the firepower became more ferocious. After a storm of Mini bullets swept by, there were no longer standing Tartars near the harbor.
The squad under the command of Lei Shenzhou fired the fastest shots. It was the first time he had participated in actual combat, and of course he was not to be outdone. In the Tiger Ben Army, it is also very particular about military exploits, and if you have no combat record, even if you have a lotus tongue, it will not work. Lei Shenzhou has just joined the Tiger Army, of course, he must accumulate his exploits as soon as possible.
"Bang!"
Lei Shenzhou decisively pulled the trigger.
Not far in front of him, a second tartar snorted and fell headlong on the deck.
He quickly reloaded his bullets and tried to continue shooting, only to find no target to shoot. I finally saw a second Tartar outcrop, and was about to shoot, when he suddenly found that a blood flower erupted from the second Tartar's head, and then he fell down.
Lei Shenzhou suddenly felt a lot of pressure. He is in the Tiger Army, but he is a real novice. Despite his hard work, he is still inferior to some veterans in terms of killing skills. He had to secretly make up his mind that he must improve his ability to kill the enemy, otherwise, some people would definitely be dissatisfied with the position of this team.
"Bang!"
The battleship commanded by Huang Shijun directly collided with a battleship of the Dengzhou Naval Division.
After a violent tremor, the two ships quickly came together, and were tied up by the ropes thrown by the sailors. The snipers took cover as they jumped onto the battleship next to them. The two Tartars, who were guarding the ship, were obviously unable to stop the attack of the Tiger Army, and they had no choice but to flee backwards.
Huang Xian and other snipers continued to shoot in the back, knocking down any two Tartars they could see to the ground or in the water. The two Tartars who tried to hide in the water did not escape their shooting. The water near the shore was soon dyed dark red.
Soon, Li Jicheng's battleship leaned directly against the temporary trestle. The springboard was quickly lowered, and Lei Shenzhou was the first to run down from the boat, followed by the other Tiger Ben soldiers. The remnants of the two Tartars on the dock suddenly scattered and ran, completely unintentional. In front of the Tiger Army, even the Tartars are not opponents, let alone these two Tartars who are fake tigers.
As the Tiger Army advanced, they shouted, "We are the Tiger Army!" Where are the people of Dengzhou Marine? We are the Tiger Army! Are there any living people here? ”
Before the words fell, there were countless cheers from there: "Here we are!" We're here! ”
With the call of excitement, from all corners of the port, many people who did not look like people came out. They are still recognizable as human because they can stand and walk, not just crawl. I saw that they were ragged and their faces were yellow, and they all looked like rats coming out of a hole in the ground. Some people are so thin that they are reduced to bones, as if the wind blows and falls.
But their expressions were very excited. Some people stumbled and ran towards the Tiger Army, and they kept falling down in the middle, and they kept getting up and continued to run towards the Tiger Army. Some people even wept so excitedly that they kept muttering to God: "Finally someone came to save us, finally came to save us." ”
Witnessing all this, the officers and men of the Tianjin Navy Division were deeply moved. These ground rat-like characters are none other than their former comrades, the officers and soldiers of the Dengzhou Water Division. Unexpectedly, they have become like this now. In the past, some people despised the surrender of the Dengzhou Sailors, but now, this contempt has gradually disappeared. Looking at the appearance of their ground rats, you know that they have been retributed, punished.
Chen Yaoyang and the others couldn't help but moisten their eyes. He finally understood why the Tiger Ben Army was so strong in combat. The Tiger Ben Army is strong, not because of their strong weapons and equipment, but because of their pure heart. They never forgot those who rebelled against the Tartars. This moment is something that the Tianjin Navy Division will never be able to do, and it is also something that most of the Ming army cannot do. The Ming court simply did not have the strength to rescue them, only the Tiger Ben Army could do it.
"Guo Lin!"
"Luo Kai!"
"Guo Lin!"
"Luo Kai!"
"Absent?"
According to Zhang Zhun's instructions, Sun Jiming patrolled back and forth in the port, shouting loudly at the same time.
No one responded.
"Guo Lin!"
"Luo Kai!"
Sun Jiming continued to shout without giving up.
"I'm ......"
"Luo Kai is here ......"
In the distance, someone replied weakly.
Sun Jiming hurriedly walked over, only to see two soldiers of the Dengzhou Water Division, helping a scrawny man out. There was no flesh visible on this man's body. Due to the fact that there were only bones in his body, his appearance was completely unrecognizable. Moreover, he was blind in one eye. Sun Jiming looked the other party up and down, and asked a little suspiciously, "...... you Is it Luo Kai? ”
Luo Kai looked at Sun Jiming with the only remaining eye, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he replied weakly: "I know you, your surname is Sun, and your name is Sun ......."
Sun Ji clearly believed that the other party was Luo Kai, so he took out a bag of food and water from his arms, handed it to Luo Kai, and said, "You eat something first, Lord Du wants to see you." ”
Luo Kai said in disbelief: "Lord Dudu...... Also coming? ”
Sun Jiming nodded and said, "Yes!" He's right on the edge of the dock! ”
Luo Kai couldn't help but shed tears, he couldn't see the flesh's face at all, since he couldn't help twitching, he muttered to himself: "Lord Du Du is actually here, he is actually here!" ”
After barely eating a little food and drinking a little water, Luo Kai followed Sun Jiming with the support of his companions, struggling to see Zhang Zhun.
Zhang Zhun was also slightly stunned when he saw Luo Kai's appearance, and then said slowly: "It's all caused by Tartars?" ”
Luo Kai burst into tears and said bitterly, "Lord Dudu...... If you come a little late, you won't see us. ”
Zhang Zhun took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "What about Guo Lin? ”
Luo Kai said regretfully: "Your Excellency...... Already killed. ”
It turned out that Guo Lin was dead. Those who were tortured to death by the Tartars. Tatar suspected that the Dengzhou Navy Division had been trying to re-surrender to the Ming State or the Tiger Army, so he was very uneasy about Guo Lin, the general of the Water Division. Tartar has been sending people to monitor Guo Lin's movements, not allowing him to come into contact with any outsiders. Later, Guo Lin was simply not fed, and starved him to death. It is said that before Guo Lin died, he just said with great remorse: "I knew ...... earlier"
If he had known that there would be such an end, Guo Lin would not have surrendered to the Tartars. Since the surrender of the Tartars, the Dengzhou Sailor was first dismembered, the ships were requisitioned, and the family members were sent to Liaodong as slaves, then transferred to Changsheng Island, and finally transferred to Lianyun Island. Anyone who knows about this experience will probably not choose to surrender to the Tartars.
It's your own fault!
It's all self-inflicted!
Luo Kai knew that Zhang Zhun had a very bad attitude towards the traitors, and said obscurely: "Lord Dudu, you give them a way to live, they can't kill the Tartars for the time being." If you want to punish, punish me and Guo Lin. The order to surrender was given by Guo Lin and me. ”
Zhang Zhun nodded wordlessly and said in a deep voice: "Okay." ”
In the past, he had indeed too high requirements for ordinary officers and soldiers of the Ming Army's naval division. He asked them to forgive their sins with the head of a tartar. However, how easy is it for them to get the heads of the Tartars? To put it bluntly, they are just a group of part-time workers, and they only have to do what the boss says. What he should despise is the officer of the Dengzhou Naval Division. For example, Luo Kai. For example, Guo Lin. They are the real culprits.
But now, Guo Lin is dead, and Luo Kai has lost one eye. They have all been punished. As for the ordinary soldiers of the Dengzhou Naval Division, they did not bravely stand up and resist this traitor when the commander decided to surrender. They have also been punished. Looking at their current appearance, I am afraid it is even more unforgettable than death.
"Luo Kai, gather all the remaining officers and soldiers of the Dengzhou Naval Division!"
"I'll say a few words to them!"
Zhang Zhun said slowly.
Luo Kai immediately issued an order and ordered all the officers and soldiers of the Dengzhou Naval Division to assemble.
Huang Shijun counted the heads of the people next to him and found that there were less than 500 surviving officers and soldiers of the Dengzhou Naval Division. According to the normal establishment, they should have been close to three thousand people. The Dengzhou Naval Division surrendered to the Tartars in June, and it is now November, and only five months have passed in between. In such a short period of time, the soldiers of the Dengzhou Navy Division died and scattered, and their whereabouts were unknown, and the number of people was only two percent of the original number. Is there anything more tragic in the world?
"Brothers! I'm Zhang Zhun! ”
"I declare, from now on! You're free! From now on, you will all be free from the sea of suffering! Indeed, you have done wrong things before, and you have indeed committed unforgivable crimes! But you have been punished, and you have paid a heavy price for your mistakes! Now, I declare that you are pardoned for your sins! ”
"You can go back to the rear and recuperate! Those who are willing to participate in the Tiger Ben Army and avenge themselves and their comrades are welcome! Those who do not want to continue to participate in the war can go home! You can also choose to settle in Laizhou and Dengzhou! Each of you will receive five acres of land for free! ”
Zhang Zhun quickly stood on a high platform and said loudly.
"Hooray!"
"Long live the Grand Governor!"
"Long live the Tiger Army!"
After a moment of silence, the officers and men of the Dengzhou Navy Division suddenly burst into a deafening shout. This is their heartfelt cry, although it is not loud, but it is sincere. Some people were so excited that they shed tears again. After five months of sinking, they finally saw heaven appear in hell!
