"Death to those who escape!"

Feiyangu bowed his head and cut down a defeated Green Battalion, carrying a bloody waist knife and roaring, and thousands of Eight Banner cavalry on either side of him lined up in a dense horizontal formation, driving the defeated soldiers of the Green Battalion with spears in their hands, forcing them to return to the Dagu Fort to defend to the death.

Obviously, Kang Mazi had been prepared for this.

The unlucky green battalion has rained down Ming artillery shells in front of it, and there are cavalry spears driving it away, obviously as cannon fodder, the most miserable is nothing more than this, but maybe get used to it, those routed soldiers still have no choice but to turn around and return to the battery, and then continue to bear the Ming army's artillery fire. At the same time, the elite soldiers of the Eight Banners who reinforced them also landed in the city one after another, gathered in front of the cannons that had not yet been destroyed, and desperately loaded and aimed in the flames that continued to explode all around, although it basically had no effect, but fortunately, it also prevented the Ming army from continuing to approach.

However, it is clear that Feiyangu, who succeeded Pan Yulong, underestimated the ferocity of his opponent.

"Order, change the armor bullet!"

Yang Dashuai hugged the cat and said casually.

As the order from the flagship was issued, all the guns on the battleships stopped firing, boxes of shells with skull insignia were lifted to the cannons, and then shells painted with red labels were loaded into the chambers.

Feiyangu and his Eight Banners elite soldiers are at a loss, although the fight, or the time of the cannonballs is short, but this famous fierce general under Kang Mazi did feel the ferocity of the Ming army, the feeling of the flowering bullets overwhelmingly smashed down is really uncomfortable, under such firepower, the famous generals who were broken and sunk in the sand before lost really not wronged, even if it was himself, if it was not for this kind of retreat, in the face of such artillery fire, the first choice is to avoid its edge.

But now, he has no way out, not only him, but the entire Qing Dynasty has no way out, this is not Hangzhou, here is Dagukou, behind here is Tianjin, that is, Beijing.

"Check the cannon and see how much damage has been done!"

He roared with a gloomy face.

Those who are still beating with their hearts are still beating, and the remnants of the green camp defenders, hurry up to check the artillery, by the way, clean up the dead bodies that are almost nowhere to put their feet, and at the same time there is a staff leader with his headquarters on the fort to replenish the losses, because of the environmental limitations, these two forts can not accommodate too many defenders, so they can only adopt this kind of refueling tactics, fortunately, there are more than 100,000 troops behind.

But at this moment, on the starboard side of the Ming warship in the distant sea, the fire was shining densely again.

The hapless Qing army immediately wailed.

Immediately after that, countless shells exploded on the fort, and this fort and the north fort across the river were instantly overwhelmed by a brilliant fireworks, and in the dense explosion sound, countless bright sparks dragged their tails from the center of the explosion to spread out in all directions.

Even a military general like Feiyangu has to admit that this scene is very beautiful, and it is so beautiful that it is intoxicating.

But alas, the next moment he knew how ferocious, how vicious, and desperate this beauty was.

He watched as a little spark like a Lantern Festival firecracker splashed on the cowhide bracer on his right arm, a small spark, like a mosquito that fell there, a small yellow bright flame that seemed to be blown out by the wind at any time swayed so weakly. Not to mention such a little spark, even in the face of the fire Sea Fei General will not care, he is like shooting a mosquito to death, and he slapped it with his left hand very casually.

Then he raised his hand and wanted to say something to Goshha beside him, but he was stunned for a moment.

Because the small flame was still burning, but it had been replaced in the palm of his left hand, and at the same time the burning pain reached his brain.

"Damn it!"

He cursed and hurriedly blew it.

It's a pity that it can't be extinguished, and the fire is getting stronger and stronger.

At the same time, a scorching smoke poured into his nose, a very pungent smell, so that he could not help but scream, and then he couldn't open his eyes, which were also smoked, and in this short hesitation, the small flame had burned to the bones of his palm, and even the flesh of his hands turned into grease and burned. The sharp pain that had never been felt before instantly overwhelmed his consciousness, this veteran who had fought on the battlefield for half his life, rolled on the ground in pain, and Goshha beside him grabbed him in a panic, and hurriedly pressed his hand to the bloody water on the ground.

And at this moment, on the two forts in the north and south of Dagukou, countless Qing troops were wailing and rolling in this strange flame burning like their commanders, and some people had even been burned out of their charred bones, not only people were burning, everything that was splashed on the sparks was burning, dirt, stones, and even cannons cast in pig iron and bronze.

And, of course, those barrels filled with gunpowder.

Well, this is white phosphorus.

Yang Feng's craftsmen in Changguo can make this thing by themselves, whether it is playing with urine or burning bones, they can make white phosphorus for him, in fact, the white phosphorus used in his match factory is produced by himself, of course, it is definitely not enough to use that output to load cannonballs, these cannonballs are loaded with what he bought directly from Lin Qian, but the manufacture of cannonballs is too time-consuming, so it can only be used as a strategic heavy weapon.

Of course, the Dagu Fort must be enough for this treatment.

"Ready to land."

Looking at the Dagu Fort, which had stopped firing, Yang Feng waved his hand and said.

He didn't believe that the Qing army could still hold the fort under thousands of white phosphorus shells.

As the flagship's order was issued, the entire Ming fleet immediately began to move forward, and in the process of moving forward, those cannons continued to bombard the Dagu battery with white phosphorus shells, but soon there was no point in shelling any further, because a large number of stacked powder barrels were finally detonated.

At this time, of course, the Dagu Fort was not a modern fortress like the Eight-Nation Alliance, to put it bluntly, it was a simple open fort, in order to facilitate quick access, those barrels of gunpowder were stacked next to the gun emplacement, how could this thing stand the white phosphorus, it can be said that any spark splashed, it can quickly burn through the barrel and then detonate the gunpowder inside, before the Ming army transported the boat down, the north and south batteries were completely submerged by the fire of the explosion.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this Dagu Fort is about to fall."

Less than ten miles away from the Dagu Fort, looking at the pillar of smoke rising into the sky like two black dragons, Tong Guowei, who accompanied Kang Mazi's personal expedition, said cautiously.

"Well, let the thief go ashore, and I will wait for him on this shore."

Kang Mazi said coldly.

After saying that, he turned his horse's head, and then returned to Tianjin.

And outside the mouth of Dagu behind him, countless small boats transporting Ming soldiers were heading towards the coast under the south fort.

At this time, there was no one to stop them, the defenders on the two forts in the north and south of Dagukou, except for those who were killed and burned to death, the rest were basically all clean, even the elite soldiers of the Eight Banners did not have the courage to hold on in the bombardment of white phosphorus shells, and the two batteries even added the Green Battalion and Eight Banners, a total of nearly 20,000 troops were invested, and they were routed in less than a morning, leaving behind more than 10,000 dead bodies and wounded who had no chance to escape.

As for the two commanders, it was even more miserable.

One was blown to the ground, and the other left hand was burned to the point of a skeleton, and he was simply unconscious because of the fire poison.

It didn't take long for the first dinghy full of Ming soldiers to dock, and then a large amount of gunpowder was piled up under the south fort, which directly blew up a gap more than ten meters wide, and then a large number of Ming soldiers rushed up through the gap with rifles with bayonets to take over the fortress. But at the same time, after some chaotic adjustments, the Qing army also launched a counteroffensive, after all, they were only afraid of the Ming army's shells, if it was just soldiers against soldiers, they still had enough courage, and the two sides quickly started fighting.

"Rise up!"

Yang Feng waved his hand and said.

On the deck behind him, a hot air balloon began to inflate, and soon it was rising with observers.

But the bottom of this hot air balloon is connected to the ship with a rope, and it is pulled after rising to a height of 200 meters, but this height is enough, and the observer in the gondola has an unobstructed view of the entire battlefield, and then the signal soldier waved the flag, and used the flag to inform the enemy of the position of the battleship below, and the guns on the battleship that raised the elevation angle quickly roared, and then the dense cannonballs crossed the Dagu battery and fell into the Qing army.

"Let's go, go ashore!"

Yang Feng stood up and said to Gao Huai.

Immediately after a frigate came up, Yang Dashuai personally led the command system of the Northern Expeditionary Army to board the battleship, and the Ming army engineers who landed at the same time also used the components they carried to build a floating dock as quickly as possible, and at the same time paved a simple road to the south fort with wooden planks, in the future, before the arrival of reinforcements, the Ming army will take this fort as the core to hold on, this is actually a small castle, with a large number of barracks inside, enough to accommodate a brigade of soldiers to live in a short period of time, although the battle was seriously damaged, But this only needs to be the city wall.

The supplies of the Ming army will be transported by sea, this floating dock is only temporary, and the real dock will have to be built next, and the road leading from the dock to the fort will also need to be rebuilt, and a large number of materials must be able to pass through, but fortunately, this is a trivial matter, and soon a large number of hired people and various building materials from Long Island will be transported over.

"Come, come, come here."

Yang Dashuai stood in front of the gap in the fort that had been blown open, and beckoned to Gao Huai and the others very proudly, who hurried up to him, arranged their military uniforms one by one, and stood in line with sabers, while at the same time a guard set up a wooden box with a tripod in front of them, and after a long and boring wait, this picture was frozen on a smooth copper plate.

Well, this is the Gaidar camera. (To be continued.) )
