Chapter 216: The Sailor

"Boom!" The Sky Xuan fired a cannonball, shaking itself by the recoil of the gunpowder.

The sailors poked out their centipede-like dense oars and worked hard to stabilize the ship under the command of the ship's boss. The gun commander, barefoot, shouted from the deck, ordering the gunners to push the guns back into place and aim the guns that had not yet been fired at the target area as much as possible.

Due to the ease of transportation, the guns on the ship were much larger than those on the 6 ground. The shells already weighed five and a half pounds, and the maximum range was as high as more than 800 paces. When paired with a flowering bullet with a modified lead, the lethality is amazing. However, the recoil of artillery is no less terrifying. Every time the battleship fired, it could only be placed in order from bow to stern, one door at a time. Otherwise, risking a one-sided salvo back and forth will definitely end in the ship's capsizing.

For a man like Zhu Qiang, the commander of the sailors, who is accustomed to turbulence on the water, no matter how hard the boat shakes, there is no hindrance. On the contrary, he enjoyed the feeling of the ship dangling every time the cannon was fired, as if it were flying through the clouds. For Lu Luzeng, who had taken refuge on the ship, this was tantamount to torture. Soon, he vomited and turned green, and the whole person collapsed and couldn't stand up on the deck.

"Why are you so old?" Seeing that Lu Lu had vomited pitifully, Zhu Qiang took out a sweat-stained licorice root from his arms and stuffed it into the old man's hand, "Chew, swallow the juice after chewing, maybe you can be more comfortable!" ”

"Thank you!" It's all vomited to the point of falling apart, and the old master Lu hasn't forgotten to be polite. first arched his hand towards Zhu Qiang, and then stuffed the whole licorice into his mouth.

The unique smell of Chinese herbs immediately made him frown, and immediately, his stomach and intestines felt a burst of comfort. He arched his hand at Zhu Qiang again, and gasped, "Much, thank you, now, good, much better!" ”

"That's, it's just a short paragraph, it costs more than 20 articles!" Zhu Qiang grinned with a smile and said in a low voice, "Why are you so old, isn't it good to stay on the shore?" I don't believe it, the thieves can still kill our governor. Even if they really have that ability, with the pig-killing knife in the governor's hand, they can't protect themselves, you are old? Or do you need to hide in the boat? ”

"He, he let the pro-soldiers, hard, hard to carry the old man up!" Lu Lu once blushed when he was said, and emphasized with a stiff neck, "Old man, although the old man is an elder, in front of the two armies, he wants to share a share of the monarch and ministers with him." So, that's why"

"Hey, okay! You're always hard-mouthed, you! Zhu Qiang had long known the old master's stage fright, smiled and pouted lightly. Sit tight, our ship has moved into position, and it's our turn to fire soon. Sit tight, sit tight, come a few people, hold Lu Changshi! ”

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" Rumble! "Boom!" A series of flowering bombs flew out, blowing up the shore in a cloud of smoke and dust. Looking at Old Master Lu again, his face was gray, his lips were blue, his hands were on the deck, and his life went to the small half. Finally, the shelling was over, and the ship began to row again. Finally, he couldn't hold on any longer, climbed to the side of the boat and spit out a few mouthfuls of yellow water, gasping and asking, "Also, I still need to fight, how long will it take." Old man, old man, old man is going to die. Die on the shore! ”

"It's okay, it's okay!" Zhu Qiang is angry and funny. Stretched out his hand and rubbed the old man's back a few times to help the other party regain his spirit, "After this round, I guess I don't have to fight anymore." The Qing army has been blown back six times, even if Zhang Mingjian learned to be obedient later, and the queue was sparse. At least one or two hundred corpses had to be thrown at a time. If he attacks again, he will lose all his old book Zhang Mingjian, what else will he use to gain a foothold under the command of Dehuan Buhua? ”

"Don't spend it, don't spend it" Lu Lu once pressed his hands on the ground and whispered. He wanted to say that the king of Zhennan was the main person in charge of the enemy army in the south, and Zhang Mingjian, the Wanhu of the Qing army, was not qualified to decide whether to fight or retreat. But there is a boss in my heart who is not sure. After all, the king of Zhennan, Tuhuan Buhua, was born weak, and his control over his army was far less than that of his uncle Timur Buhua.

As he was talking, he saw the Qingjun retreating like a tide, and he didn't stop all the way back to recognize the flag. And Tuhuan Buhua and the soldiers around him must be trying to stop it, but the effect is minimal. Because the green army did not retreat, but withdrew from the battlefield in large strides as a whole. Unless the king of Zhennan took off Huan Buhua and immediately sent someone to have a fire with Zhang Mingjian, it would be impossible to stop him.

"Alas, the lord is weak and the servant is strong, and the dignity and humility are out of order, this is the result! That's the result! When the old man was training in the area of Gaoyou Lake, he had already expected that one day it would be like this! Lu Lu Zeng suddenly came to his senses again, wiped a handful of bile hanging from his beard, and shook his head and said.

"Not necessarily!" Zhu Qiang, the commander of the water division, seemed to be on top of the old gentleman today, stood on tiptoe and looked into the distance, and retorted loudly. "I always let the Qingjun play with his life, but the people around him have been hiding behind to watch the excitement. That's not fair in itself. Besides, in the east, the Luzhou army in the east has been defeated! ”

"Ahh Lulu was taken aback, jumped up, and grabbed the side of the boat to look ashore. Sure enough, I saw that two or three miles away from the canal to the east seemed to have changed somewhat. The sound of muskets like popping beans came from the other side, and each time, it was accompanied by bursts of frenzied cheers.

"Win, let's win!" The sailors in charge of the lookout in the gondola standing on the mast cheered, and at the same time shook a red flag vigorously, "We won, we won." To the east, to the east, the Fifth Army, and, more, the Guards, broke through the last line of defense of the enemy. Timur, Timur didn't dare to fight without spending money, and ran away with the soldiers and horses of his headquarters! His grandmother's, this prince is also unrighteous! Leaving behind tens of thousands of volunteers and Khitan soldiers, he ran away with the Mongolian soldiers first? ”

"Ran, how is it possible?" Lulu could barely believe his ears. In his impression, King Timur has always been a wise and brave figure. Although it has been suspicious of the imperial court in recent years, it has not done much. But the matter of abandoning the teacher and running away should not be born in this person in any case.

"Run, Xuanrang Wang really ran away! Oh my God! He's running so fast that he doesn't even look back! As if hearing Lu Luzeng's question, the lookout continued to shout in the hanging basket, so excited that he couldn't do somersaults in mid-air.

Just then, a gust of wind swept across the river, sweeping away the smoke of the burning gunpowder. Lu Lu had tried to look around, and he saw that two or three miles to the south-east of the area, there were countless people running in a panic. He saw that the flags of the Red Turban Army appeared behind the fugitives one by one, chasing the dead to the north, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. He saw a Mongol on a tall horse, protected by thousands of guards, walking away in the wilderness. He saw that Timur's wool was cut down to the ground, and countless vigorous figures rushed past it.

"They are the Mongol army, the Mongol army that swept the Western Regions and Jiangnan back then!" It was as if something had stepped on his heart, Lulu had muttered. For so many years, all he saw and heard was how strong and brave the Mongol army was. Even if you are defeated occasionally, you can fight with your opponent to the death. But I have never heard that a whole Mongolian team of 10,000 people actually fled without a fight. How could this be the work of the Mongol army? How can this be the descendants of the group of Mongolian troops that swept the world back then?!

"Woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-woo——!" At this moment, a hurried horn also sounded in the position of the Fourth Army, interrupting the old master's emotion. The Fourth Army took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and the soldiers in the front row quickly pushed the wall and walked out in groups. While striding forward, he rearranged the formation, like a tide, wave after wave, layer upon layer, swallowing and blocking.

And the king of Zhennan opposite him, Tuhuan Buhua, quickly gathered his team, and rushed away before the Fourth Army and Xuzhou Fu Youde's troops could kill him. Didn't put up any resistance at all!

"We won!" Zhu Qiang, the commander of the sailors, took off the iron helmet on his head and used it as a tambourine to make a "dong dong" sound.

"Win, win, win!!" The gunners raised their faces blackened by gunpowder and jumped and screamed on the boat. Even the most stupid person can see that the Yuan army has been completely defeated. Although King Timur and King Zhennan each had tens of thousands of fully organized Mongol troops around them, when the Righteous Soldiers and the Tanma Red Army both collapsed in 6 consecutive years, it was impossible to kill another 20,000 Mongol troops by themselves. What's more, the morale of those Mongol troops is also extremely low at the moment. It is already rare to be able to protect Timur from withdrawing from the battlefield and withdrawing from the battlefield, and it is impossible to turn the tide.

"Win, win!" Old Master Lu also suddenly forgot about seasickness, and ran around on the deck like an old urchin. No matter who you meet, don't forget to pat them on the shoulder with your hand to show encouragement.

The sailors knew that this timid but face-loving old master was Zhu Bayi's elder, so they did not refuse to be photographed by Lu Luzeng. Whenever the old master ran towards him, he took the initiative to squat down a little so that it would be easier for the old man to take pictures.

"Good job, all of you are good!" The old master became more and more enjoyable the more he filmed, and he couldn't wait to encourage everyone on the boat. "Today's artillery bombed well, and the enemy cried wolf. It's a pity that the king of Zhennan ran too fast, otherwise, send a team of soldiers to outflank him from the water."

Suddenly, he felt that something was not quite right. rushed to Zhu Qiang and grabbed the other party's arm, "Commander Zhu, where are the soldiers on your ship?" Why don't you have a single soldier on board? ”

The smile of Zhu Qiang, the commander of the water division, immediately froze on his face, and cold sweat rolled on his forehead, "No, there are no soldiers." Zhang Shicheng and Wang Kerou were ordered to stay behind to train the troops, and there was a lack of instructors under their command. Zhu Dudu couldn't get a suitable man for him for a while, so he drew the soldiers on the ship. I thought that there was no sailor of the imperial court on the canal, and the soldiers on the ship might not be able to come in handy. I didn't expect it, I didn't expect to encounter an ambush here! ”
