"Zhou Junbao, has the equipment been checked?" Squad leader Wang Tao had a serious expression on his face, although his soldier was very capable, but he still had to confirm it every time. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Report to the squad leader, the inspection is complete!" Zhou Junbao was also serious and saluted.

Yang Youguang, a soldier in the squad, whispered: "Squad leader, our battalion is fighting a tough battle this time, and it is not easy to storm the fort at Dagukou." ”

Wang Tao kicked Yang Youguang's buttocks: "Why don't you give me trouble here, you don't think it's easy to fight, I'll throw you into the sea now, what's the use of you if you can't fight." ”

Yang Youguang rubbed his buttocks embarrassedly and said, "I'm just saying, squad leader, I will definitely kill a few pigtailed soldiers when the time comes." ”

Zhou Junbao fell into the well at this time and said: "Not long ago, you didn't like to go into the barracks to cut your braids." ”

Yang Youguang's face turned even redder: "It was before, and now it is now." Oh yes, in the past, I didn't have enough ideological consciousness to understand the corruption and brutality of the Qing Dynasty, but now I have a different ideological understanding, we are going to liberate 30,000 compatriots. ”

Wang Tao smashed it and whispered: "The instructor's ability to fool is good, when the first regiment was first formed, he had to blush when he talked to everyone." ”

Luo Teng, the deputy squad leader, walked over and said, "You can name it, squad leader." ”

Wang Tao nodded and shouted, "All assemble." ”

A group of soldiers from this squad immediately lined up.

"Roten." "Here!"

"Jiang Zheng." "Here!"

"Zeng Xishun." "Here!"

"Zhou Junbao." "Here!"

"Guo Kai." "Here!"

"Yang Youguang." "Here!"

There is a reason why Wang Tao's class is small, with only seven people. The main combat vehicle of the Marine Corps is the assault boat. This is an iron-hulled assault boat that the Marine Corps ordered in large quantities. There is an outboard engine capable of reaching speeds of more than twenty knots, and there is a 7. 62-mm machine gun, maximum crew limit, seven people.

In order to accommodate this type of vehicle, the Marine Corps squad was smaller than the Army's squad, with seven men able to fight in an assault boat, although the fireteam was slightly larger. However, because even the Marine Corps does not have fully automated weapons, the firepower is relatively balanced.

In the seven-man Marine Corps team, the squad leader used the S8 light machine gun, the prototype of which was the M1918A2 (BAR) of the US Army in World War II.

The deputy squad leader and another soldier use an S6 submachine gun (MP40 modified from a drum version), while the other soldiers use an S1 rifle and a bazooka player. In Wang Tao's class, it is naturally Zhou Junbao, who has the greatest strength, carrying a bazooka. And Yang Youguang was responsible for carrying ammunition for Zhou Junbao.

At this time, Wang Tao said: "On each navy warship, at most a few assault boats are suspended, such an attack intensity is definitely not enough, except for those who can attack directly from the naval warships, others have to come out of the dock of the Qilianshan in advance, and then go upstream from the Baihe River to attack the enemy." ”

Yang Youguang said, "Squad leader, we won't be the others." ”

Wang Tao nodded and said: "That's right, we are unlucky, we will be exposed to the sea for a long time, but you don't have to worry, all our ships will be subject to light control, and we will enter Baihe to launch an offensive at least ten minutes after the naval shelling begins, and the Qing army does not have any dense firepower, so it will not pose much threat to us." ”

Jiang Zhengdao, a soldier who is also a modern man, said: "Then now we can only pray that the Qing army's combat readiness is very poor, and the shelling in the dark night will not hurt us." ”

Wang Tao pursed his lips and said, "Our luck won't be so bad. ”

In fact, the number of assault boats that can be accommodated in the dock of the Qilianshan is also relatively limited, and a considerable number of assault boats are placed on the Changmao ship, and two rows of assault boats are mounted on both sides of the 100,000-ton giant ship, which can arrange at least one battalion of troops to attack.

Luo Teng comforted: "At least we don't need to toss so much, pack up things from the Qilian Mountain and go somewhere else." ”

……

May 12 at 1 a.m. sharp.

The navy's Pinghai ship and two frigates slowly sailed into the Baihe River in the night, and at Dagukou, where there was no enough lighthouse to illuminate, the Qing army did not notice that the enemy had actually touched under their noses.

Hong Bao, the captain of the Pinghai, was also a little nervous, but he was more excited, he was a member of the Ming Dynasty, and he had a bitter hatred for the Manchu Dynasty, and now it was a battle to avenge the Ming Dynasty, so he naturally went all out. Even God took good care of it tonight, the apocalypse was a little gloomy, even the moon was obscured, and there was nothing to be seen on the sea.

On the Dagukou Fort, it was actually silent at this time. Although most of the soldiers have returned to the camp to sleep, it stands to reason that there are still some soldiers on duty here, they carry lanterns, inspect the fort and the surrounding defense, it should be a matter of cleanup, but the Dagukou Fort has not had any war for hundreds of years, and the officials of the Standard Association are also negligent in control, so although the lantern is shining, the soldiers on duty are sleeping at the root of the wall.

This situation is commonplace, and even the generals and guerrillas who are guarding the mouth of Dagu are all virtuous, and when they drink a few glasses at night, they fall asleep, who cares about an enemy attack that will not exist at all. In fact, recently, the officers of Dagukou also asked their soldiers not to be so strict, because a gang of smugglers had bought them off and asked them not to embarrass the merchants who sold smuggled Tang goods.

Naturally, the situation of the sale of Tang goods in the north has been repeatedly banned, and the officers at Dagukou are also well aware of it, and the green light is naturally given when the silver is in hand.

As everyone knows, the smuggler named Lin Fang is behind the Datang official.

Bai Nan stood in the bridge of the Qilian Mountain, and instructed Lin Fang to bribe the guards of Dagukou, which he had arranged earlier, and he did not expect this simple purchase to play a big role, but as long as it could play a small role, it would not be in vain for him to arrange.

Everything is silent, there is hardly a little light on the sea and land, and Bai Nan can't hold it himself, what is the precaution of Dagukou, he can only see the move now.

The second hand of the watch finally went to 12, and almost at the same moment, the roar of cannon came from the south, and Bai Nan could not see the situation there, but he knew that the battle had begun.

Chang Bin was in the dock cabin of the Qilianshan at the moment, and as soon as the cannon sounded, he hurriedly shouted: "The second battalion, the third battalion, attack as soon as possible and seize Beitang." ”

"Yes!"

As early as fifteen minutes ago, Wang Tao and Zhou Junbao's class had already driven out of the dock.

"Damn, everyone is under the control of the lights, and now they don't dare to turn on the lights on the sea, although the route is clear, but how to get to the bottom of the Dagu Fort is also completely blind." Wang Tao is a little crazy now, it is pitch black all around, it is a good attack environment, but they are not soldiers with night vision equipment in the 21st century, and they can't accurately identify the direction with the naked eye. Even if there is a little light in the Dagukou Fort, that brightness will not play a role at all.

Fortunately, when the three ships of the navy opened fire, the bright fire illuminated the entire area, and finally let Wang Tao see the direction clearly.

"Quick, Roten, over there, the battery is over there."

"Okay." Roten steered the boat, drove the motor to top speed, and headed for the place where the battery was.

Dagu Fort is set up on the bank of the Baihe River, not coastal, if there is defense pressure, the Qing army will set up a barrage to stop passing ships, but in ordinary times, this is also a more important waterway, some ships that transport grain to Beijing by sea take this route at night, so they can't be blocked here at will. This also made Wang Tao and the others not have too many obstacles on the way to the fort.

Zhou Junbao estimated: "I'm afraid we will be ten to fifteen minutes behind schedule. ”

Wang Tao cast a shadow in his heart, because on the side of the naval warship, the first battalion only had about one company with a strength of less than 100 people, and the other troops of the first battalion were all going to set off from the Qilian Mountain. Obviously, Wang Tao was definitely not the only one squad that got lost at sea just now, and the Marine assault boats that smeared the going were now scattered in various places on the sea, and they were lucky enough to be on the river near the fort, and the unlucky ones even went in the opposite direction.

"Damn it!" Wang Tao slapped his thigh, very annoyed. However, he also knows that this situation is absolutely unavoidable, there are always various situations in the war, and both sides of the war will continue to make mistakes, and the key to victory lies in who can make fewer mistakes, or take advantage of each other's mistakes.

Luo Teng said: "Don't worry, the Qing army is over." ”

Everyone looked in the direction of the fort over there, and the flames had completely enveloped the Dagu fort, and even one fort had seriously collapsed. This is due to the 203 mm guns of the cruiser Pinghai, whose heavy guns were almost inexplicable in the eighteenth century, and even in the Battle of Dagukou in the Second Opium War, the guns of the British and French armies did not exist in close proximity.

The roaring cannon sound and the sky-high flames completely enveloped the Dagu Fort, and even Wang Tao and the others felt a little numb in their legs when they saw such an artillery bombardment. Although there are only three warships on the White River, but their output firepower is extremely strong, the guns of the second-generation Datang warships have achieved rapid fire, even if the rate of fire of 203 mm heavy guns can only reach one shot in three minutes, but a large number of 76 mm naval guns equipped with ships, but they can fire at least five shells in one minute, and the dense firepower directly makes the Qing soldiers who originally guarded the fort in their dreams go up in smoke.
