Today's first update is delivered! , early March, morning, North Korea, Iron Mountain.

When Jingshi rarely began to clear up, the sky on the side of Tieshan was gray. The sun never came out, as if unwilling to see the killing that was about to unfold. Without the sun, the sky and the earth naturally look a little dark, as if night is about to fall.

The gunboats of the Tiger Ben Navy lined up in a line along the coast, with black holes and muzzles, facing the coast. All gunners were on standby, and at the first order, "they could carry out a heavy artillery bombardment on the shore."

Five merchant ships carrying the soldiers of the Marine Corps landed safely. A large number of marines quickly disembarked and set foot on the land of Iron Mountain. During the landing, "they did not meet any resistance from the Tartars."

Iron Mountain has a port, which is not very large, and can only berth five ships at the same time. After the Tiger Army suddenly occupied Phi Island, this port was also controlled by the Tiger Army Navy, and even if the Tartars wanted to destroy it, they were powerless. Now, the Tiger Army is using this port to carry out a forced landing.

Zhang Zhun stood in front of Zhang Haibin's flagship deck, holding a clairvoyant mirror, carefully observing the situation of the battlefield. In the line of sight of the clairvoyant, "there is no trace of the Tartar in the entire perimeter of the port." If I guessed correctly, it should be that the Tartars did not dare to fight the Tiger Army on the coast, and they all retreated inland. The previous lesson of the Tartars was too profound, and if they fought the Tiger Army on the shore, they would definitely be smashed into meat sauce by the gunboats of the Tiger Army's navy. Soon after, all the marines of more than 300 men went ashore. At a distance of about two hundred meters from the shore, they built simple fortifications and established a defensive line. The so-called rudimentary defensive line is actually at the front of the position, with a lot of irregular steel bars inserted to block the possible impact of the Tartar cavalry.

These irregular rebars are about two finger thick, about five meters long, three meters buried in the ground, and two meters above the ground. After testing, such steel bars "can effectively block the advance of war horses." A war horse galloping at high speed, if it hits such a steel bar headlong, it will definitely be cut in half by the steel bar. Even if you are lucky, you will be hit on the head and bleed, and it is unbearable to see, and it is indeed a terrible killer of war horses.

Subsequently, more merchant ships began to dock, and all the materials needed to build the fortress were unloaded at the port. They needed to build a strong fortress next to the harbor. The scale of this fortress is a bit like the villa of a modern large family, covering an area of about 2,000 square meters, which is still different from a real castle.

In the vicinity of Iron Mountain Harbor, there are only very simple buildings, most of which are mud walls or mud brick walls, and the roofs are tiled or thatched. Because they have been out of use for many years, these buildings have decayed. Whenever a strong wind blows over all the buildings, it makes a sound that seems to collapse at any moment.

Gao Yu took a few fighters, and in the middle of these buildings, placed several explosive bags with a charge of thirty catties, and then detonated them. As a result, after a loud bang, all the surrounding buildings collapsed. The purpose of this was to prevent the decaying buildings from collapsing and injuring people, and to build new bastions on top of the ruins.

Zhang Zhun also came to the side of the port. He rode on top of the white dragon pony "until it was about three hundred meters from the port" before slowly coming to a stop. He held the Mu Li mirror and looked around carefully. At the end of the clairvoyant, he could see a few scattered Tartar cavalry, cruising far away, but had no intention of approaching the port.

Obviously, after being taught a few times by Zhang Zhun on the coast, the current Tartars are very vigilant, "It is easy not to enter the range of the cannon of the Tiger Ben Navy." The Tiger Ben Army attacked the local Tatars of Tieshan this time, and it was impossible to accurately judge whether the Tiger Ben Army really wanted to control Tieshan, or use the terrain of the port to induce them to attack, and then annihilate their living forces again.

According to intelligence, there are only five cattle in the Tartars of Iron Mountain, about 1,500 people. With such a small number of troops, if they rushed up desperately, they would definitely be killed by the Tiger Army. This is very fatal for the sparsely armed Tartars. Therefore, the Tartar cavalry would not rush into attack until they were not sure enough.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a sharp gunshot rang out.

It was the gunfire of the guard post.

There are enemies!

All the Tiger troops on the shore immediately entered a combat state.

"It's the Korean rebels!"

Zhang Zhun raised the clairvoyant mirror and said coldly.

What appeared in the clairvoyant mirror was a few thousand North Korean troops, all of whom were infantry. Their formation was quite dense, like a swarm of ants, slowly pressing towards the tiger Bencui. These North Korean troops are not moving very quickly, and it feels as if they are cautious. It was vaguely visible that behind the North Korean army, there seemed to be Tartar cavalry supervising the battle.

"The Tartars themselves don't dare to come up, so let the North Koreans be cannon fodder, a good plan!"

Zhang Zhun held the clairvoyant mirror and said to himself.

These North Korean rebels should be Shen Qiyuan or Zheng Taijie's subordinates. They were apparently forced by the Tartars to test the reality of the Tiger Army. The Tartar cavalry did not dare to rush up, but they rushed up to their deaths, how could the Tiger Ben army not fulfill them? Let the naval artillery greet them first!

"Fire!"

Zhang Haibin immediately issued a flag message.

"Tom!" "Tom! All the gunboats of the Tiger Army, whether they were walking on the flexible Cangshan boat or the traditional Fu ship with a huge size, all opened fire one after another. The sound of cannons suddenly resounded around the port of Iron Mountain, and bursts of fire made the originally somewhat gloomy sky become extraordinarily bright.

Solid bullets roared across the sky and smashed towards the North Korean rebels. The solid bullet fell into the crowd, and it immediately smashed open a piece of blood. Due to the dense ranks of the North Korean rebels, three or four of the ten solid bullets always have a chance to hit the target. The hit rate of three or four percent is already very powerful.

Sure enough, "Zhang Zhun could clearly see that there was a slight confusion in the Korean rebels. Where solid bullets hit, some North Korean rebels often run wildly, and they need the pressure of officers to deter them. However, as the number of solid bullets smashed down increased, the bullet pressure of the officers seemed to be more and more powerless.

"Bang!" "Bang! "Bang! The gunshots of the tiger mirror kept ringing out.

Mini bombs whizzed away, blocking the advance of the Korean rebels.

The North Korean rebels rushed over, and people kept falling. Due to the fact that the distance is a bit far, the hit rate is not very high, and the number of people who have been knocked down by the Korean rebels is not very many. Their overall number is large, and those who fall are basically negligible. As a result, the North Korean rebels continued to press in the direction of the port.

"Tom!" "Tom! "Tom! The cannons of the Tiger Army Navy continued to be fired.

Solid bullets continue to fall in the middle of the North Korean rebels, causing great psychological pressure on the North Korean rebels. The substantial damage caused by solid bullets is actually not very large, and it is mainly a blow to morale. A solid bullet will be smashed to pieces, or completely torn apart" or even pierce a big hole in the front and back of several people at the same time, such a tragic scene is absolutely unbearable for ordinary people.

Sure enough, as more solid bullets fell, "there was a serious panic inside the North Korean rebels." Some North Korean rebels began to quietly retreat. Even, some officers quietly stopped moving forward. They brandished their swords and ordered the soldiers around them to rush forward, but they refused to move.

"It can't go on like this!" , Behind the North Korean rebels, Shen Qiyuan frowned and said.

"Just put on a show." , Zheng Taijie also said helplessly.

As he spoke, he cautiously looked at the group of Tartars behind him, and a hint of disgust and annoyance appeared at the corners of his mouth, which soon disappeared again. The Tartars were all bent and armed on horseback, staring at the Korean rebels in front of them.

Obviously, they are the role of the Warlord, and if the people in front of them step down, "they will go on a killing spree."

The slave chieftain of the Dajin army in Iron Mountain is called Dun Duoli. He was a sturdy guy like an iron tower, his whole body was black, and there were black and thick fur everywhere, like a big bear running out of the deep mountains and old forests. He carried a large axe and "stared at the movement ahead, his eyes bigger than a bull's eye."

For the slow movement of the Korean rebels, Dundori was obviously very dissatisfied. Such an offensive speed is simply looking for death. He even saw that among the Korean rebels, "some of the officers began to grind foreign workers." This made him very annoyed, and he yelled viciously: "What's the matter? Why is the action so rubbing*......"

Shen Qiyuan hurriedly said: "Baturu, the firepower on the side of the Tiger Ben Army is very fierce!" ”

Dundori didn't listen to his explanation at all, and shouted hard, "Tell them to hurry up!" Zheng Taijie greeted all the ten generations of Dun Duoli's ancestors in his heart, and then said quietly: "Our army's offensive ability is too poor, why don't you go to your army?" Dun Duoli's face suddenly became ugly, stared at the two bull's eyes, stared at Zheng Taijie fiercely, and said coldly: "What do you mean?" Zheng Taijie was indignant in his heart. What do I mean? You still don't understand? You people in Dajin Country don't dare to go up and fight the Tiger Ben army, so you force us Koreans to go up and send them to death. You think we're fools? I don't know if you want us to be cannon fodder?

The Tiger Army has the assistance of naval artillery, and if we rush forward like this, we will only die in vain. How could I possibly make the troops desperately rush upwards? Is it because your own people don't die fast enough? If you people from the Dajin Kingdom want to drive away the Tiger Army, you can go up yourself.

Shen Qiyuan hurriedly smiled and said, "Baturu, don't be angry, I'll immediately ask them to speed up their pace." If it really doesn't work, the warriors of the Dajin Kingdom will have to take action in person. As he spoke, he waved his flag and shouted to order the Korean rebels to speed up their advance.

However, the North Korean rebels in front of them are still moving slowly. Of course they received Shen Qiyuan's order, but they were not stupid. "Many people know that they will never be able to please themselves. If you rush forward so actively, the final result will inevitably be a dead end.

Don't look at the current lethality of the Tiger Ben Army is not very strong, and their casualties are not very large. Actually, it's all because the Tiger Ben Army's big killer weapon has not yet appeared. This big killer is grapeshot. The Tartars did not dare to rush upward, also for fear of being covered by grape bullets. Once they are within range of the opponent's grapeshot, they are doomed. Even the people of Daejin Kingdom can't withstand the attack of grapeshot, why should they be sent to death by the North Koreans?

"Tom!" "Tom! "Tom! Sure enough, when some of the North Korean rebels entered the range of the grape bullets of the Wyvern Cannon, they immediately tasted the terrible taste of the grape bullets.

The Cangshan boat of the Tiger Ben Army, small in size, light in weight, and shallow in draft, "can shoot very close to the shore." The range of the grape shell of the Wyvern Cannon is about 500 meters, which is just enough to block the Korean rebels in front of the defense line established by the marines.

Bunches of grapeshot are projectile into the air, then dispersed into marbles and scattered in all directions. A large number of marbles fell "as if it were raindrops, and there was simply no corner to hide from." Any target that stands in the way of the marbles will be hit mercilessly. As a result, the North Korean rebels who rushed to the front immediately became tragic.

The previous Tartars, to put it mildly, still had a bit of armor, but these North Korean rebels didn't have any armor. Their flesh and blood, in front of the splashing marbles, "are simply living targets!" Under the cover of grapeshells, the Korean rebels fell one by one as if they were cutting wheat, and the battlefield suddenly turned red with blood.

"Run*......"

I don't know who shouted, and the other surviving Korean rebels immediately retreated. Retreat quickly turned into flight. Quite a few North Korean rebels even threw away their weapons and fled behind in desperation. They rushed forward very slowly, and they retreated backwards very quickly. Obviously, this was a psychological preparation for a retreat early in the morning.

"Shoot the arrows!" "Shoot the arrows!" "Shoot the arrows!" Dundori was anxious and angry, and roared desperately.

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh! "Whoosh! The Tartar cavalry, who was in charge of supervising the battle, immediately released arrows frantically.

One arrow after another, the Korean rebels who fled back were constantly shot to death on the ground.

However, the bow and arrow of the Tartars could not completely stop the rout of the Korean rebels. A large number of Korean rebels retreated from the front, and like a tidal wave, soon surrounded the cavalry of the Tartars, who could only shoot part of them even if they kept shooting. The two sides were close together, and some of the Tartar cavalry were still besieged in the middle of the Korean rebels.

The massacre of the Tartar Warlords also provoked the resistance of the Korean rebels, "Someone opened fire on the Tartars with muskets in their hands. As a result, "intermittently Tartars were hit and fell off horses." The North Korean rebels didn't even see the shadow of the Tiger Army, so they were beaten back: "That's something that can't be helped, and I don't know where the opponent is if I want to fight hard." But now, the Tartars are in front of them, "it's a dead end anyway, it's strange if they don't work hard." As a result, the scene became even more chaotic.

"Bastard!" "Stop firing arrows!" Dun Duoli's face turned pale, and he said angrily.

There was no way he could have his men kill all the Korean rebels. If all the Korean rebels are killed, his life in Tieshan will be even more difficult. Without the assistance of the Korean rebels, "the Tiger Ben Army could have attacked him directly." Seeing that the rout could not be stopped, Dun Doli had no choice but to order to stop firing arrows and let the Korean rebels retreat to the rear.

"A bunch of cowards!" , Dundori scolded angrily.

But he forgot who drove the North Korean rebels to the front. If the North Korean rebels are cowards, then what is the Dageum Army, which does not dare to fight at all?

Sure enough, Dun Duoli's words aroused the strong disgust of Shen Qiyuan and Zheng Taijie. That's right, they are indeed cowards, and they don't dare to fight the Tiger Ben Army head-on. However, don't you Dajin Army also dare not meet the Tiger Army? The eldest brother doesn't laugh at the second brother, and you're embarrassed to come out.? Damn, I knew that Dajin Guo was a paper tiger, and I wouldn't be a traitor.

Tiger Ben blunt ashore on Iron Mountain, for Shen Qiyuan and Zheng Taijie, it is indeed not a good thing. The Tiger Ben Army and the Dajin Kingdom do not share the same sky, and everything related to the Dajin Kingdom is the target of the Tiger Ben Army. This, of course, includes the two of them. The current Shen Qiyuan and Zheng Taijie have a clear understanding of the foreign power and middle cadres of the Dajin Kingdom.

Knowing this, they wouldn't have treasoned and worked hard for Dajin if they said anything!

It's just that "it's too late to say anything now." They got on the thief ship of Dajin Kingdom, and if they wanted to get down, it would definitely not be so easy. The Tiger Army, as well as the Joseon royal family, will not easily forgive them. At this time, the most important thing is to preserve strength. As long as there are subordinates "and the army, it's easy to say anything." Otherwise, whether it is the Dajin Army or the Tiger Ben Army, they will easily pinch them to death.

"Sample!" , Zhang Zhun scolded in a low voice.

These North Korean rebels are simply silver-like wax spearheads, which will collapse at the touch of a button. Perhaps, the North Korean rebels are simply prevaricating the Tartars. Probably they had no choice but to send thousands of men up to test it, but they found that it was not good, and they immediately retreated. If the Tartars were to supervise the battle in the back, they would be half angry.

It is also naïve to say that the Tartars are also naïve, and at this time, they actually hope that the Korean servant army will take the initiative to contribute. You must know that the combat effectiveness of the North Korean servant army has always been rotten to the point of being rotten. Well, to rely on them alone for combat missions, it is simply impossible. Moreover, the North Korean rebels obviously left their hands, and they didn't want to be consumed too much by the Tiger Army.
