Chapter 506: The Bait Force Rooted in Central Fujian
"How dare the villain deceive your lords, although the villain did not see the number of the opponent's artillery with his own eyes, but the villain followed the side of Lord Zhizhou to the east gate, and when we were still some distance away from the east gate, we could already hear the dense sound of the cannon like rolling thunder. [Full text reading]
The East Gate Tower is just a pillar of incense in front of our eyes to be blasted into rubble, you know, the East Gate Tower is a solid brick and stone, this kind of power, in addition to a large number of artillery, the villain really can't think of any other weapon with such ability. The messenger who had come to ask for help had a palpitating look on his face, as if he was glad that he was not standing on the gate tower at that time, otherwise he would not have even meat left.
Kui Lun's eyebrows squeezed out a deep Sichuan character, and scolded his mother in his heart, the messenger kneeling in front of him really has no reason to tell lies to deceive this reinforcement, if this messenger is really the other party's meticulous work, then why bother to say that the other party has many artillery, after all, the opponent is only 3,000 soldiers and horses, and his side is 15,000 troops, which is five times the opponent's, no matter what, it is impossible to let 3,000 soldiers and horses turn around and run away?
After thinking about it, Quiren felt that he was afraid that only by seeing the other party's artillery could he determine whether it was the messenger in front of him who was nervous, or those anti-thieves, one or two, all of them were all daunting giant spirit gods with thousands of pounds on their shoulders.
"That's enough, New Dutong, you lead the forward 3,000 soldiers and horses, be sure to rush to the city of Yongchun Prefecture at noon, if the enemy attacks Yongchun Prefecture very tightly, you must be responsible for containing the group of anti-thieves, and wait for the official to personally lead the army to surround the anti-thieves."
"Yes!" The left capital of the Eight Banners of Fuzhou, Niuwang Amao, took the order proudly, and led several generals under his command to beat their horses and rush towards the front of the team.
When the 3,000 soldiers and horses led by the Newwang Amar ran wildly, and finally at noon, they turned around the valley and could see the outline of Yongchun Prefecture, but they found that the dragon flag of the Great Qing Dynasty on the west gate of Yongchun Prefecture outside there was fluttering away from the flagpole and fell to the ground weakly.
And a blood-red bewitching banner was rapidly rising towards the top of the flagpole, and Newwang Ama couldn't help but restrain the galloping horse's head, squinted his eyes, and looked at the city wall beyond there.
Although it was not clear how many soldiers and horses there were on the city wall, the black figures looming behind the female wall made the heart of the Newwang Amar sink down, just now, the Newwang Amar had already learned that those rebels were all black-clothed and black-helmets, and now, just after noon, the other party had already taken Yongchun Prefecture and had seized the city wall.
--------------------
What does this mean, this shows that either the other party did not keep its promise, launched an attack in advance, and occupied Yongchun Prefecture, or that Yongchun Prefecture governor knew that he was invincible and chose to surrender, and the third possibility is that the opponent only took a quarter of an hour to let Yongchun Prefecture change hands.
"The cavalry comes with me, General Wu, you lead the foot soldiers to approach slowly, and you must not start a war without permission before the capital is returned!" Out of prudence, Newwang Amar decided to go to the east city to take a look in person, and after instructing a general to lead the troops, he led more than 200 cavalry around the city, Yongchun Prefecture City is not big, Newwang Amar quickly rushed to the east gate, and when his eyes fell on the east gate tower that had been completely razed to ruins, Newwang Amar's pupils shrank to the size of a needle's eye, and his mouth almost showed the tonsils in his throat.
It is definitely heavy artillery that can cause such terrible consequences, and at least dozens of heavy artillery guns can cause such a scene, and the thought that the opponent really has at least dozens of red-coated cannons makes Newwang feel that he is about to go crazy. "Spread out, spread out for me, look around and see if there's an ambush!"
In addition to the 200 cavalry left behind to guard the side of the Metropolitan Lord, the rest of the cavalry had already loosened the reins and searched for the enemy around the city.
"I didn't expect these guys to come really fast." Xie Yi, the commander of the 2nd Regiment of the 91st Division, who was standing on the intact city wall next to the ruins of the East Gate, held a telescope and looked at the cavalry that were only two or three hundred meters away from the ruins of the East Gate, and after looking at the exaggerated and shocking expressions on the faces of the Manchu cavalry who were drawn closer to the sight, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows a little smugly.
"Commander, are we going to do it?!" Chen Chun, the commander of the artillery battalion directly under the regiment next to him, couldn't help but feel a little uncontrollable after seeing the clothes and armor of the person who came and distinguishing that it was definitely a senior official.
"it, don't forget, what are we here for, after we occupy Yongchun Prefecture, we have to rely on the city to hold on, well, at least two days." The head of the regiment threw the binoculars in his hand to the guards, and said with a smile: "If you beat the other party's general at the beginning, aren't you afraid of scaring people away?" Don't forget, what are we here for, we are bait, nailed to Yongchun Prefecture, to attract the attention of the officials and troops in Fujian. ”
"Then why don't you look at this girl standing here? This is too much to save face, right? Chen Chun, the commander of the artillery battalion, rolled his eyes with a look of reluctance.
"That's the same, I said the regiment leader, although we are bait, but we can't always have small shrimp to send them to death, maybe it can also boost the morale of our opponents, look at the dress of this goods, I'm afraid it must be at least a general." Next to him, the regimental staff officer suggested with a smile.
"Damn, you guys, I'm afraid the world won't be chaotic, right?!" Xie Yi stretched out his hand and took off his helmet, stretched out his hand and scratched his smooth scalp, his troops had just entered the city for less than ten minutes, and they only had time to let the troops clean up those miscellaneous fish and seize the city wall, and before they had time to rest, these officers and soldiers arrived, at this time, it was indeed time to scare these officers and soldiers, and let the brothers take a breath of rest first, after all, they had been driving for a day and a night all day and night, and rushed to Yongchun Prefecture in the early hours of the morning, and fired a few cannons, deterring Yongchun Prefecture, and letting them send messengers to ask for help, Except for a dry meal by the way, I never rested at all.
Although it can still hold on, it is not bad to do it and refresh the brothers.
"Okay, I'll come!" Xie Yi simply hooked his finger at one of the rifle snipers who were guarding the city wall. "Are you sure you can see that girl?"
"The distance of 300 meters is difficult, but no problem!" The rifle sniper squinted his eyes through the scope on the rifle, then replied with his head held high.
--------------------
"Well, then him, but don't kill him, it's better to be half-dead, it's better to be an official, people came to Yongchun Prefecture in a hurry, we can't meet and send people back to their hometowns, right? Anyway, we're all kind-hearted and good-natured people! You have to leave someone a way to live, don't you? You just hit that girl's belly, hit the abdomen, generally, if you can kill his dick with one shot, Lao Tzu will let you be promoted to platoon leader, what about us?! Xie Yi patted the rifle blocker on the shoulder, and put on a kind look. But the words that came out of his mouth looked like a high-ranking military cadre, but like the small leader of a gangster ruffian gang on the street.
The rifle blocker grinned for a long time before he reacted, and nodded stupidly, it seemed that he had let Commander Xie's guidance make him scorched.
Standing more than two hundred steps away from the ruins of the east gate of the city, far away from the distance between the bow and arrow and the firearm he knew, Nuwang Amar was under the escort of a group of personal soldiers, and his brows were furrowed more and more, the other party had such a powerful firepower, so there was no doubt about the siege of Yongchunzhou, but the question was how could dozens of red-clothed cannons be transported into the city in such a short time?
Besides, he came around the city, and there was no cannon barrel sticking out of the city wall at all, so he scattered his cavalry, hoping that they would search to see if these anti-thief artillery units were hidden in these dense forests outside the city, but after waiting for a long time, many cavalry had already returned to report, not to mention the red-coated cannons, even the rut marks of small cannons and light cannons were not found, and some cavalry even went deep into the dense forest to investigate, and did not find any traces, Not to mention artillery.
"What the fuck is going on?" Newwang Amar was so entangled that he wanted to beat his head, looking at the ruins of the east gate, but he couldn't see a single cannon, which made him really unable to figure it out to the extreme.
Just when he was scolding his mother vigorously in his heart, he suddenly felt that his lower abdomen was viciously punched, and then his body was numb, as if someone had sucked his backbone away, and at this time, he heard a crisp gunshot in his ears.
"Lord Toto?!" Seeing the blood flowing down the saddle, the soldiers guarding him were so frightened that they didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly escorted the Newang Ama who was lying on horseback and fled in the direction of the city far away from the city wall.
"Hit! Grandma's, boy, you're a good marksman, and you have a future. Xie Yi excitedly took away the binoculars and slapped the city wall fiercely.
As soon as the remaining generals heard the news, the angry generals immediately decided to avenge the general, and after the three thousand soldiers and horses built a dozen ladders as fast as possible, they tried to attack the city, but they left hundreds of corpses without even touching the root of the city wall.
When Na Kui Lun led the army to the city of Nayongchun Prefecture, he saw the Eight Banners Zuo Du Zuo Tong Niu Wang Ah Mao who was lying on a bed of felt, his lower abdomen was covered with blood-soaked cloth, his face was gray, and he didn't know what to do.
