Chapter 250: Zhang Kui is killed

The guns of the two batteries no longer attacked the guns in the harbor, but turned their muzzles to attack the Dinghai. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, each piece of artillery weighed two or three thousand pounds, and it was not so easy to re-aim in a hurry. And with the clumsiness of the red-coat cannon, it is impossible to adjust the angle of the shot drastically.

Therefore, they only bombarded the infantry array of the Dinghai Navy, and when the coast of the Dinghai Navy was a little farther away, the artillery could no longer reach them, and they could only bombard the enemy ships in the harbor again.

Jin Yufei and more than 200 soldiers stood quietly under the hill of the fort, looking at the enemy on the shore who was moving towards the fort.

The soldiers under his command were ready to move, hoping to meet the attack of the other party early, but Jin Yufei did not give the order for a long time.

The Daishan infantry trained two battalions of 2,000 soldiers, and Ren Siqi only sent two teams of more than 500 people to Cen Gang, which was personally led by Jin Yufei, the battalion leader.

Jin Yufei personally led a team to guard the fort on the south side, and the north side was led by the team leader Tony. This surrendered Javanese man has grown up very quickly in the past year, and he has learned to speak the Ming dialect proficiently, his marksmanship is second to none in the entire Daishan army, and more importantly, he is extremely obedient and loyal to Ren Siqi, so he was appointed by Ren Siqi as the team leader.

The reason why Jin Yufei didn't give the order to attack was because he wanted to let the enemy walk in so that he could consume their physical strength.

The fort was more than two miles from the harbor, and the navy was afraid of being attacked by artillery, so they walked very quickly, so that before they could get under the fort, their physical strength would be unable to support them, and their own physical strength would be much better than that of the other side.

Since being appointed by Ren Siqi to lead the infantry, this year Jin Yufei has been a pioneer in studying and practicing hard, not to mention, he has worked hard for the ability to lead troops to fight, a book of "Training Records" has been turned over by him, how to train soldiers, how to march, logistics and supply, facing the enemy, he is practicing military knowledge every day.

After practicing for so long, now I finally have the opportunity to lead the army independently against the enemy! At this moment, Jin Yufei's mood was very excited.

Be calm, be calm! Watch the enemy come from the distant coast, watch the other party messily organize the queue, watch the other get closer and closer.

If Ren Siqi personally led his troops, he would ambush his men near the coast, and then take advantage of the chaos when the enemy came ashore to deal a fatal blow to the enemy. Since going to Luzon on the Fuchun, to now, Ren Siqi and the Dutch have fought many big battles with pirates, and almost every time they are surprised and surprisingly won.

And Jin Yufei's style is completely different from Ren Siqi, he doesn't have wild thoughts, he leads the troops just to seek stability.

Closer, closer. When the distance between the two sides was only two hundred paces, Ding Haijun stopped and tried to catch his breath.

Jin Yufei immediately ordered the musketeers in front of the formation to shoot.

Sixty or seventy musketeers had been preparing for a long time, and when they heard the order, they immediately pulled the trigger.

The "snort" fire rope fell into the gunpowder hole, ignited the gunpowder, ignited in a small space, and the heat that burst out pushed the projectile, which moved at high speed along the slender muzzle, shot out of the muzzle, and flew towards the enemy two hundred paces away.

At this time, the muskets were all smoothbore guns, and there was no rifling in the chamber, so the firing range was relatively close, only more than 100 steps, and the effective firing range was less than 50 steps. So for an enemy two hundred steps away, the projectile simply can't shoot that far.

However, the sound of "bang bang bang" still startled the navy, the other side actually had so many muskets!

The musket is slow to fire and troublesome to reload, as a thousand households, Zhang Kui naturally understands the shortcomings of the musket, looking at the Daishan musketeers in the distance who are bowing their heads to reload ammunition, Zhang Kui immediately ordered his subordinates to continue to approach the enemy, but he controlled the pace, not close to the other party's hundred steps, he was determined to wait for the other party to open another round, and immediately attacked.

Seeing that after firing a round of guns, the enemy was teased and moved again, Jin Yufei breathed a sigh of relief. If the enemy ignores it, then he will give the order to slowly press forward.

After the gunpowder was installed, the gunner pointed the muzzle of the black hole at the enemy.

When the distance between the two sides was a hundred paces, Zhang Kui ordered to stop advancing, and then entered the effective range of the opponent, and now only waited for the enemy to shoot, and then ordered the whole army to charge.

However, the Daishan musketeers did not shoot blindly, but under Jin Yufei's order, the whole army slowly pressed towards the Dingjun.

In front were sixty or seventy musketeers, and behind the musketeers were two rows of pikemen armed with spears.

Seeing the muzzle of the black hole coming towards him, the Ding Navy soldiers were in a commotion. They naturally know the power of muskets, although they don't understand why these people in Daishan are so bold and dare to use muskets, aren't they afraid of bombing and boring? But the Ding Navy soldiers also knew that if they were shot, their lives would basically be confessed.

The bullets in these years were all made of lead, and if they were hit, the wounds would be poisoned and infected, and few people would survive.

Although the number of the Daishan army is small, less than half of the Dinghai Navy, the queue is very neat, and the sound of neat footsteps is heard, which gives the Dinghai Navy a great deterrent. Looking at the silent enemy army, listening to the neat footsteps, a murderous aura rushed to the face, and before the battle, many Ding Navy soldiers were already frightened.

At this time, Zhang Kui was surprisingly calm. To be able to become a thousand households in the Dinghai Navy from a pirate, Zhang Kui naturally has two brushes, he himself is highly armed and has fifty long-trained soldiers under him.

But seeing that although the number of the opponent's Daishan army was small, it was imposing, Zhang Kui knew that he had met an opponent today.

But at this moment, he can't retreat, and if he turns around and flees, he will expose his back to the other party, and he can only let the other party slaughter him.

I can do it, I have twice as many men as the other side, and I have fifty elite soldiers, and I will definitely be able to defeat the enemy.

Zhang Kui encouraged himself and ordered to slowly approach the other party as well.

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, ninety steps, eighty steps, sixty steps, fifty steps, and it was already possible to see the faces of the soldiers on the opposite side. But the musketeers of the Daishan Army did not shoot yet, looking at the muzzle of the black hole, which put great pressure on the soldiers of the Dinghai Navy.

When he was four steps away from the enemy, Jin Yufei gave the order to stop advancing, and the order to stop advancing was the order of the musketeers to shoot, and the sixty or seventy musketeers aimed slightly forward, and they all hooked the triggers in their hands, and the projectiles crossed the space of forty paces and shot into the body of the enemy on the opposite side.

As soon as the shot was fired, the musketeers did not look at the results of the battle, and immediately retreated to the back, and through the space between the two musketeers, they quickly retreated behind the pikemen and began to reload the projectiles.

At a distance of forty paces, with the elite of the Daishan musketeers, almost no bullets missed, and in just a moment's effort, the Dinghai soldiers in the front row fell.

"Kill it!" Zhang Kui didn't dare to slack off, brandished the long knife in his hand, and took the lead in killing the other party, his fifty personal soldiers followed closely behind him, and the other soldiers also shouted and howled to give themselves courage, and then rushed towards the spear of the Daishan army.

In front of them, however, was a wall of spears.

The cold light flashed, the spears were like a forest, and the Dinghai Navy was like a moth to a fire, and it pounced on the wall of the Daishan Army composed of spears.

The cold light flashed, and in the middle of the gun, a body fell to the ground, and the screams were repeated.

Zhang Kui was horrified to find that his elite personal soldiers were not enough to see, and there was no room for superb martial arts to play between the guns at all. And the canine-toothed battlefield has no room to dodge at all.

You can hold one spear, but you can't dodge the stabbing of the second spear. And the Daishan pikemen are very insidious, specializing in stabbing the enemy's soft underbelly.

In just a short period of time, under the spear formation of the Daishan army, nearly a hundred corpses fell, plus the soldiers who were shot by muskets before, the losses of the Dinghai Navy were already more than one-third, and the rest of the people collapsed at once, and they turned around and fled with a "bang".

Zhang Kui stood on the battlefield in a daze, letting his subordinates pass by and flee to the sea.

Fifty of his own soldiers fell in front of his eyes, which made Zhang Kui's heart ache to death. More than 500 of his men were easily defeated by half of the enemy, which made it difficult for Zhang Kui to understand and unwilling to accept it.

"Come on, come on, I'm Zhang Kui of the Dinghai Navy, and there is a kind of looking for me to fight alone!"

Zhang Kui brandished his long knife and howled loudly, but what he saw was the soldiers of the Daishan Army passing by him with expressionless faces, continuing to chase and kill his men.

Jin Yufei walked up to Zhang Kui with a frown, looked at him carefully, shook his head and waved his hand. The two guards beside him immediately pulled the trigger of the musket in their hands.

"Bang bang" two gunshots, and Zhang Kui's body was hit with two bloody holes.

looked down at the blood hole on his body, touched the blood stains flowing out with his hand, and Zhang Kuiyang fell to the sky.

On this side, Jin Yufei defeated the enemy and was pursuing, and Tony of the other fort won earlier than Jin Yufei.

Tony did not wait for work like Jin Yufei, but took the initiative to lead his troops to slowly meet the enemy.

Tony was an excellent musketeer, and his use of muskets was even better than Jin Yufei's, and he did not order the musketeers to shoot blindly, but waited until he was close to fifty paces before firing.

During the march, Tony carefully observed the enemy troops on the opposite side, and he quickly recognized the leader of the enemy.

Just after approaching the enemy, Tony fired first, and at once hit the leader of the 500 Ding Navy, Baihu Zhang Ning.

After Tony, the other musketeers opened fire, killing dozens of people at once.

The leader was killed, with heavy casualties, and these five hundred people did not have elite soldiers like Zhang Kui's own soldiers. After just one round of shooting, the Dinghai on this side was defeated, and they turned around and fled.

When the Dinghai attacked the fort, the artillery on the fort kept bombarding the enemy ships in the bay, and there were ten warships left by Zhang Kui in the bay, and there were more than 300 soldiers on them who did not go ashore, this was to guard the warships in the bay and prevent the enemy from suddenly attacking from the sea.

Seeing that the armies on both sides had been defeated, these men immediately fled in their boats, leaving behind the routs on the shore and the more than thirty empty ships in the bay. (To be continued.) )
