Chapter 264: Conquering Huzhou

The number of large ships of the Qingfeng army was small, and only these thirty-six ships could go to sea, and the number of soldiers on board was limited, so Hao Ren could only let Zhao Jizu and Yu Tonghai use the two armies as a feint to disperse Yang Tongguan's forces. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Zhao Jizu led the infantry, taking advantage of the fact that the enemy had not had time to react, and did not line up, attacked fiercely, and once attacked the city of Hangzhou, but unfortunately the backup was insufficient, and the Hangzhou city defense army killed from all sides, and the strength was several times that of Zhao Jizu.

Yu Tonghai saw that things were not good, and hurriedly ordered the marines to go ashore to rescue, only to rescue Zhao Jizu's soldiers and horses, only this battle, caused a large number of casualties to the enemy, Zhao Jizu's army, also lost nearly 1,000 people.

The Hangzhou city defense army did not give up, followed Zhao Jizu and Yu Tonghai out of the city to chase and kill, and fired hundreds of cannons on the water before the enemy was beaten back.

Zhao Jizu's infantry boarded the sea ship, rested for half a day, waited for the shore again, and lined up a strict infantry and artillery coordinated military formation (Zhao Jizu's army was equipped with 20 three-pounder guns as standard), and carried out an artillery confrontation between the city and the city with Dazhi Timuer.

Dazhi Timuer was afraid of the water, Yu Tonghai's huge number of artillery, did not dare to go out of the city to face the battle, Zhao Jizu rushed to kill, has already frightened Dazhi Timuer, Hangzhou broke the city, visually, it is only a matter of time.

Under the city of Hangzhou, the artillery fire is continuous, Hao Rendu led the water and land armies, has also cleared the obstacles under the Tiaoxi River, the three-way army, gathered under the city of Huzhou, Wu Liuqi's river defense army warships are lined up on the lake, in the shape of a fan, densely fire artillery to Huzhou City, subordinate to the firearms battalion of the baggage soldiers, under the cover of artillery fire, built two pontoon bridges in the east and west, Chang Yuchun, Deng Yu respectively led two armies, from the pontoon bridge to attack Huzhou.

For a time, the sound of cannons rumbled, the sound of killing shook the sky, and the river was red!

Yang Tongguan, who was outside Jiading City, had besieged Jiading City for more than a month, and he was determined to break through Jiading City and eat Shao Rong, a lonely army that stood out from the periphery.

Looking at the ruined Jiading City, the mountains of corpses, Shao Rong's 7,000 soldiers and horses, it was already the end of the crossbow, he was unwilling to give up like this, Yang Tongguan was a heart, but they all led the soldiers and horses to carry out the most fierce blow to Shao Rong in history.

Shao Rong defended Jiading City, belongs to the Qingfeng army town Pingjiang gateway to Jiading, if Jiading is lost, the gateway of Pingjiang is opened, Yang Tongguan's army, can drive straight into attack Pingjiang, threaten the Qingfeng army's back road.

Huzhou is also the gateway to Hangzhou, an important town in the Mengyuan Dynasty, and if Hao Ren breaks Huzhou, he can directly threaten Yang Tongguan's rear wing and coerce the important town of Hangzhou.

In a battle, three battlefields were opened, and all three were fought extremely fiercely, and now the Qingfeng army and the Miao army have chosen to take an offensive to respond to the attack with an attack! The Qingfeng army has a force to threaten Hangzhou, and the Qingfeng army's Jiading, can not be held for a long time, it is already the end of the strong crossbow, the two sides are equal, and it is not clear that one side has a tendency to lose.

If Yang Tongguan breaks Jiading, the Qingfeng army will be defeated, and if Hao Ren breaks Huzhou, Yang Wanzhi will be defeated.

The city wall of Huzhou has already been dumped in the Tiaoxi River by the six-pounder artillery of the Qingfeng army, and the heavy artillery of the Qingfeng army suppressed the enemy's strength, and when the infantry began to charge, the soldiers and horses hidden behind rushed up like a tide, risking huge casualties, and repelled the Qingfeng army.

Huzhou City is surrounded by water on three sides, and the naval army and infantry of the Qingfeng Army cannot be fully developed!

Huzhou guard Yang Tongda, is Yang Tongguan's close relative, knowing the importance of Huzhou to Yang Tongguan, with sufficient soldiers and horses, relying on the ruins, regardless of the battle damage, stubborn resistance!

The artillery of the Qingfeng army has wiped out the enemy, and the defenders have new soldiers and horses to fill up, it seems that the enemy always has inexhaustible soldiers and horses, the will to fight, and its tenacity.

Since Hao Ren returned to the north, he has improved some of his weapons, thinking that going south is as easy as pushing a boat down the river, but he never expected that the enemy's will is so tenacious, and Hao Ren has never met such a powerful opponent.

In the past, Hao Ren fought, and every battle must be defeated, and it has never been as bitter as Huzhou's! In three days, the Qingfeng army lost 5,000 men and horses, killed about 20,000 enemies, and still couldn't conquer Huzhou City!

"What's the problem?"

"Is it because I brought a female dependent in the army this time?"

"Or is it because of a mistake in your battle plan?"

'No! Definitely not because of these! It is a feudal superstition that there can be no female dependents in the army, and there is no bias in one's own battle plan! Hao Ren firmly believed.

Yang Tongguan is indeed a powerful opponent, rebellious by nature, unwilling to obey the orders of Dazhi Timuer, if he returns to Hangzhou or back to save Huzhou, Jiading City can be preserved, and the Qingfeng army will not be so passive, if you want to fight, you will retreat!

Now there is no turning back from the start, just like a gambler, you can only hit hard, either he Kejiading, or I can Huzhou!

……

Hangzhou Bay, Zhao Jizu's eyes were scarlet and said to Yu Tonghai: "We have been storming Hangzhou for three days, neither can we defeat Hangzhou, nor can we lead Yang Tongguan to help, Shao Rong is in Jiading, I'm afraid it won't last long, what should I do now?" ”

"General Zhao, don't worry, now is a contest between the will of the two armies, as long as we have done enough offensive, we will definitely be able to lead Yang Tongguan back to help!" Yu Tonghai comforted.

"Alright! I will take the brothers to rush for a while, and Mr. Yu will hold down the water army for me! Zhao Jizu said, carrying his waist knife, ready to fight again, but he heard the soldiers on the watchtower shouting: "Lord Steward, there are fifty large sea ships surrounding the bay and blocking the return of our army!" ”

"General Zhao, don't rush to attack, it seems that we have a big battle to fight!" Yu Tonghai said, climbed the watchtower, used a monocular, and looked into the distance.

Exactly: the house leak was more affected by the overnight rain, and the building ship was even worse. The battle situation is in confusion, and Fang Guozhen, a big pirate, has come out to join in the fun again.

Fang Guozhen's fifty large sea ships densely surrounded the entrance to the sea of the Qingfeng army, the huge skeleton pirate flag, fluttering high in the wind, the ship was full of sailors wearing robes, the sailors were most equipped with harpoons, black holes and muzzles, gloomy and scary.

Fang Guozhen was the first to raise troops against the Yuan Dynasty among the heroes at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, but this guy didn't have too long-term political ambitions, he couldn't fight, he surrendered, he felt unhappy, he rebelled again, surrendered and rebelled, and repeated several times, and then connected with Zhang Shicheng, Zhang Shicheng's power was weak, and he was attached to Zhu Chongba, and then betrayed Zhu Chongba, and was completely eliminated by Zhu Chongba.

Now, Fang Guozhen is in the Mengyuan camp, obeying the dispatch of Dazhi Timuer, personally commanding fifty large sea ships, and also came to join in the fun. (To be continued.) )
