(This word count is thousands of words away, I'm really sorry, Xiaoqi asked for leave, was knocked down by the flu, violent cough led to chest pain, dizziness, nausea, really can't complete every 10,000 words, for the time being, each chapter is more, Xiaoqi is making up after recovery, please forgive and support, thank you!) On the evening of October 7, Lin Haijiang personally commanded eight battalions to participate in the general attack on the siege of the naval battalion.

As the plenipotentiary representatives of Major General Reis, Colonel Werther and Ergin stood in front of Lin Haijiang with tired expressions, looking at the two guys who looked like hungry ghosts, and Lin Haijiang couldn't think of anything else to talk about in the British at this time?

Lin Haijiang didn't mean to greet Colonel Werther and Erjin at all, and said directly: "Since you are not allowed to surrender, then fight to the death!" I fulfill your glory as the British Emperor [***] who died on the battlefield! ”

Yes! Ergin and Colonel Werther were dumbfounded, and Colonel Werther said in a voice so hoarse that he could barely speak: "You and your men didn't signal us to surrender?" As the elite 10th Grote Rifle Regiment of the British Imperial Army, we cannot surrender voluntarily, unless we run out of ammunition and food, and there is no hope for reinforcements. ”

"Didn't I surrender to you?" Lin Haijiang looked around in confusion Liu Quansi, Wang Faren, and Zhang Zheng were already battalion officers, but everyone shook their heads and said they didn't know!

Lin Haijiang touched his nose a little depressedly, and Huang Tao and Li Anmin, who were staff officers of the Great War trainees, whispered to the side: "My lord, you didn't sign the execution letter of the surrender plan, so this action has not been implemented!" ”

Lin Haijiang looked at the eager guys beside him, he knew very well that these guys were deliberately exploiting loopholes, they didn't want to be captured at all, they all intended to kill them directly and become martial arts!

Lin Haijiang cleared his throat and said, "Then I will officially inform you now, you can surrender!" ”

Excited and tearful, Elgin immediately waved his handkerchief in the direction of the siege like an abandoned resentful woman, but after a while, the British soldiers who had sporadically laid down their arms walked out with each other's arms, and the first thing they did when they came out was to kneel on the ground and ask for water!

At this time, Lin Haijiang realized that the British in front of him was very familiar? So he asked, "Are you Mr. Ergin?" ”

Ergin and Captain Werther, who had just finished drinking the water, let out a sigh of relief and heard each other's names be called, and Elgin was very happy, because according to his inference, the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty did not dare to do anything to them, because they were afraid of angering the British Empire.

Ergin, who had regained his spirit after drinking water, obviously forgot who he was, and nodded with a humble attitude: "I am Count Ergin!" ”

"I said you thief are still such a? I let you rob things, I let you steal things, I let you not learn well from a young age, I let you be willing to degenerate, I let you be lewd, I let you come to China! Lin Haijiang's violent beating stunned everyone next to him?

Lin Haijiang yelled: "Pull me down, eat and drink well every day, find the best doctor, and arrange for me to beat him violently with ten physiques every day, just don't beat him to death!" He must be beaten to the point where his mother doesn't even know him. ”

Colonel Witt looked at the panting Lin Haijiang with a shudder, for fear that he would suddenly break out and beat himself up, Lin Haijiang waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be afraid, you didn't steal!" ”

Colonel Werther suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, because Lin Haijiang could speak fluent English, so Colonel Werther thought that he was still a civilized person, and the only possibility was that this Qing military attache and Count Ergin had a holiday, so he asked tentatively: "Although Count Ergin's character is average, but he is not enough to steal other people's finances, could you be a wrong person?" ”

Lin Haijiang was slightly stunned and said: "Isn't this Erjin the son of the old Ergin, who served as the British ambassador to the Ottoman Empire?" The same tomb robber who ransacked the temples and tombs of Athens and Artica? Many priceless treasures were savagely cut off and cut off by the old Elgin, and even the old bastard who forcibly dismantled the statue of the goddess of wisdom despite the endangerment of the supporting structure of the Parthenon! ”

Colonel Witt thought for a while and nodded, "It's true, but Mr. Ergin doesn't seem to have done anything in the Qing Kingdom?" ”

Lin Haijiang suddenly stiffened his face and said, "Where did you get so much nonsense?" Do you envy Ergin's treatment? Lao Tzu is giving him a preventive injection to make him remember it a little deeper! ”

Colonel Witt didn't dare to speak for a while, and quietly returned to the weakened Major General Reis, while some prostrated soldiers behind him were pulled by carriages, and these prisoners were all living pounds in Lin Haijiang's eyes!

Bao Ling, who was standing on the bell tower of the concession church, looked at the whole process of Major General Reis's surrender without tears, there were at least more than 10,000 Qing [***] teams over there, and there were only more than 200 people in his hands, damn the French! Bao Ling slammed the bell, he knew how to rescue the captured personnel in the urgency of the current delay.

Ye Mingchen received the news of Lin Haijiang's siege victory, and immediately sent a telegram to report the victory, Guangzhou City can be described as jubilant, defeated and captured 5,000 Yingyi, what a great merit, I am afraid that even Ye Mingchen did not dare to think, in 1840, the superintendent of the meeting, Lin Zexu and Admiral Guan Tianpei, with the 48th battalion of elite soldiers and the 17th battalion of the naval division fought with the British, although the enemy retreated for a while, but in the end also ended up with a land division corpses all over the field, the entire army of the naval division was destroyed, Lin Zexu dismissed the official and assigned, and the commander Guan Tianpei was martyred.

Now that he has captured 5,000 British soldiers, Ye Mingchen has begun to be leisurely, what reward will the court give him? Ye Mingchen is different from Qingliu like Bai Gui, he pays more attention to whether he can go further.

When Lin Haijiang organized the escort of the British prisoners, in the sea off Daya Bay, a fleet quietly appeared like a ghost!

Plimpton. Admiral Arthur's First Far East Squadron of the French Third Republic, dressed in a blue-and-white naval uniform and wearing a large gold ribbon. Admiral Arthur is sixty-seven years old this year, and because of his years of sailing, his face is wrinkled like the wrinkled bark of an old tree, and on the contrary, the calfskin shoes on his feet are spotlessly polished, and his life can be said to have been dedicated to the French Navy, for which he has a unique affection.

As early as 1855, when the Crimean War was still raging, Napoleon III listened to the advice of his aide Villavit and prepared to wage a war against the Qing State, using the money obtained from the war to make up for the financial deficit caused by the Crimean War, and the French Third Republic, which was becoming stronger, also needed a market for dumping goods.

As the largest country and market in the East, they could not allow the British to monopolize it, because the French Third Republic had greatly surpassed the British in terms of shipbuilding and naval expansion. Admiral Arthur believed that within the next decade, the French Navy would replace the British Royal Navy, which was running large parts of the world.

But let's Plimpton. Admiral Arthur was very worried that some short-sighted fellows in China always focused their attention on Prussia and Austria, and always proposed the development of the Continental Army, making France the first army power in Europe, and even did not hesitate to provide weapons, funds, etc., in order to provoke a war between Austria and Prussia.

Plimpton. Admiral Arthur sighed slightly, and Major General Mitchell, who was standing behind him, came to his side and asked with concern: "Old man! What's wrong? Could it be that the idiots in the country are making you angry again? ”

Plimpton. Admiral Arthur said slowly: "These idiots actually said that it is okay for the navy to rely on the British, and we only need to focus on the development of the army, do these idiots think that the British fleet is equal to our fleet?" The Anglo-Saxons are a bunch of discreditless pups, and the most hateful thing is that the Americans are also involved in it, and don't forget that it was the British who we helped them to knock out! ”

Major General Mitchell smiled slightly: "So you hid in the Far East?" Escaping is never the way to go, all we have to do is fight them! If you can't do it, you can completely destroy them! ”

"Destroy whom? Congress or Napoleon III that fool? "Plimpton. Admiral Arthur took off his military hat extremely helplessly and said: "The victory of the British stimulated the group of rotten guys in the country, they envied the British for being able to get something for nothing, the [***], weakness, and incompetence of the Qing Empire made people sad, but sadly they were too rich!" With this money, we can continue the shipbuilding program, and in my lifetime, we must have the French Navy completely and completely replace the British Royal Navy! ”

On a lookout platform on the hillside of Daya Bay Wharf, two veterans are holding their rifles and roasting steamed buns, while a young soldier is holding a telescope and keeps looking at the staircase! Obviously, he couldn't see anything at night, but the young soldier had apparently not yet worn off the novelty of the telescope, and the two veterans let him play.

One of the veterans, Zhang Laifu, held a snuffbox to his nose, took two deep breaths, sneezed, and said: "Lin Abing, the steamed buns are almost ready, you call the junior down!" ”

Lin Abing smiled and said, "I'm afraid that kid is reluctant, it's fresh there, didn't you hold that thing for more than half a month before?" Sleep without letting go? ”

Zhang Laifu pouted and said: "You are not the same, don't talk about others, we are all left by Lord Lin for this meal, look at the lighthouse signal and lookout post, two taels of silver per month is enough!" ”

Lin Abing heard Zhang Laifu mention Lord Lin, and hurriedly straightened his face and said, "Lord Lin is a good official!" Don't deduct our salary, there are regular rewards, but unfortunately we are not the head of the main camp, if we are young and teenagers, Lao Tzu will have to fight for a future. ”

Zhang Laifu looked at the skinny Lin Abing and smiled: "Just like you?" I don't need you to wash the feet of Lord Lin's soldiers! ”

Lin Abing has long been accustomed to Zhang Laifu's bitterness, but he knows in his heart that Zhang Laifu is a good whistle commander, a guy with a bad mouth and a warm heart.

Zhang Laifu added a piece of firewood to the fire and said, "I'm afraid that Lord Lin won't be able to do it for long!" Squeezed away by those filthy things, our good days are over! ”

"The dog said, dare! Lao Tzu's foreign guns are not vegetarians, and if he dares to force Lord Lin, he will cut off our brother's way of life, I don't care what Lord Lin is, I will recognize a Lord Lin! Lin Abing patted himself with indignant pat on the Prussian 1855 rifle in his arms.

The first batch of new guns to be issued is each patrol post, almost everyone has fired ten shots, and they are not proficient, but whenever they change the guard with this new guy who has no foreigners, Lin Abing always has an irrepressible sense of pride.

Lin Abing remembered that at the gun awarding ceremony, Lord Lin's sonorous and powerful voice said, you are in Guangzhou, your home is in Guangzhou, defending coastal defense is to protect your family, as a soldier, weapons are your first life! If there is an invasion by foreign invaders, the first credit should be given to sending a signal, and the dereliction of duty will be guilty of escaping.

Zhang Laifu looked at Lin Abing, took out a piece of silver with a size of about two taels from his arms and threw it over: "It's almost the end of the month, your family has a large population, take the body cloth for your mother-in-law, buy a few catties of meat for the baby, and grab a few pairs of medicine for your blind mother!" ”

"Sentry, how can I always take your money? Not yet! Lin Abing pushed with an embarrassed face.

Zhang Laifu said with a tense face: "Get out of the way, your son is my godson, your mother is my godmother, and your mother-in-law ...... It's still your mother-in-law, my brother and sister! What's the matter with you? Lao Tzu, I have enough to eat, and the whole family is not hungry, what's wrong? This will be envied? ”

Lin Abing sighed slightly and said, "I'm afraid our mother's eyes are difficult to treat, and her old man won't let her catch the medicine, saying it's a waste." ”

As he was talking, the recruits from the watchtower suddenly shouted: "Sentry commander, come and see, it seems that there is a ship!" ”

"There's a ship?" Zhang Laifu and Lin Abing glanced at each other, how could there be a boat at this time? The two of them hurriedly climbed up to the watchtower, and in the sound of the rushing waves, they could see that there were many black shadows on the sea!

Zhang Laifu hurriedly said to Lin Abing and the recruits: "Immediately send a fireworks signal to Pengcheng, there is an invasion, and the number is unknown!" ”

At this moment, the French captain Eddy's leather boots also stepped on the beach of Daya Bay, due to the narrow probe, the first batch of troops to land was only one battalion of troops, and the rest of the troops had to wait for full control of the beachhead, waiting for dawn before landing, Eddie's most important task was to remove the Qing army observation post described in the intelligence, and then wait for the main force to land, and launch an attack on the Qing army garrison city not far from here.

Being able to quietly uproot the Qing army's observation posts became a top priority, and the one hundred and thirty-nine men under Eddie's command were all experienced officers and soldiers.

"Sentry Chief, the pyrotechnic flare is dumb!" The young recruit handed over five tube-mounted signal flares to Zhang Laifu with a trembling hand, and Zhang Laifu turned to the young recruit and said: "You and Lin Abing immediately went back to the camp to report the news, and said that the foreigners had called, and it was dark that we didn't know the strength of the foreigners, but there were definitely no less than twenty ships on the sea." ”

"And what do you do?" Lin Abing looked at Zhang Laifu intently.

Zhang Laifu took a deep breath and said: "I'm the sentry commander, if the three of us go back, we won't be able to understand the matter of the signal tube dumb fire, and the report will also become a runaway, and I will leave it to the death, so that you will be fine!" ”

The young recruit almost cried, Zhang Laifu glanced at Lin Abing and said: "Don't be like a girl, let Lao Tzu be upset, leave the bullet for me, it will be a while." ”

Lin Abing and the recruits disappeared into the night, Zhang Laifu quickly extinguished the bonfire, loaded the rifle, bit a row of bullets in his mouth, and poked through the back of a rock.

The foreign devils are wearing blue and white military uniforms, which have undoubtedly become quite good targets, and the leather boots under their feet make a loud noise when climbing, but their behavior is sneaky like a sneak attack?

These pig heads! Zhang Laifu aimed the crosshair at the gap, and put a foreigner with a command knife and a white mourning hat walking in the middle, and moved his index finger slightly, bang! A dull gunshot rang out.

A French lieutenant's head was lifted, and the white bucket hat representing the identity of the officer tumbled and fell down the mountain, and the French soldiers who were climbing were nervously watching where to find the firing point at night.

Zhang Laifu turned out to be a hunter, subsidizing his life by hunting wild ducks, and later a serious illness in Guangzhou almost killed him, thanks to Lin Abing's wife who saved him kindly, so he took Lin Abing with him wherever he went, even including being a soldier and eating.

Zhang Laifu turned around and changed places, another shot, a French soldier fell to the ground, repeated several times, the French finally found his position, the French army shot a round of sand and stones, Zhang Laifu's face collapsed a few holes, and then Zhang Laifu, who had changed bullets, stood up and shot at the French soldiers who were standing upright to fill gunpowder and projectiles.

With every shot, a French soldier fell, and when Zhang Laifu continuously loaded the bullet and knocked down three French soldiers, he was about to load the bullet for the fourth shot, and the French army almost completed the charge, and pressed the nose of the machine to fill the mine mercury.

Zhang Laifu hurriedly retracted his body, bang, bang, bang! About a dozen gunshots rang out, and apparently the French changed their previous panic, and the detachment carried out fire suppression.

The French were getting closer and closer, and every time Zhang Laifu tried to fight back, he was suppressed by the other party, and the situation became critical for a while.

At this moment, bang! After a special gunshot.

Yes! A French soldier clutched his neck and wailed, blood spurting from between his fingers.

Zhang Laifu looked back and saw that not far from him, Lin Abing was shooting with a gun, so he also got up and shot back!

Captain Eddie lost thirteen men, including two officers, and Captain Eddie decided to halt the operation until he could find out what the enemy was really doing.

As soon as they retreated, a light signal came from the direction of the ship. Both Admiral Arthur and the Chief of Staff, Major General Mitchell, are watching the battle! Ask the vanguard to fight as soon as possible.

Captain Eddie had no worries this time, and there was no way to retreat, and the one hundred and twenty-six people who had retreated rushed forward in a swarm.

Captain Add, wielding his command knife, took the lead in rushing to the front like a chicken's blood, and the soldiers behind also roared and struggled to climb, they knew very well that there were not many enemies on the top of the mountain, and as long as they attacked it, it would be the end of the battle
