Chapter 105 Tofu Slag Project

The thousands of soldiers who roared on the opposite side, all wearing red Ming army battle jackets, most of them were shabby, and their faces were vegetable.

At this time, looking at the Mao Yunju, there is still no trace, Zhu Ping'an snorted coldly, but the hairs on his body stood up in an instant, if it wasn't for the news outside the customs to come in time, I'm afraid I would have to suffer a big loss today.

There were about 1,000 soldiers who accompanied Zhu Ping'an to the shore, and at this time they had already lined up in three rows, and with Shen Ke's order, they had already raised the Dengzhou rifle in their hands. As early as the process of landing on the shore, the soldiers had already filled the paper shells with ammunition, and at this time only the procedure of aiming and firing remained.

The Tianjin Weiming army that charged forward couldn't wait to launch the bow and arrow in his hand, and hundreds of feather arrows drew an arc and continued to shoot down within a distance of dozens of steps in front of Zhu Ping'an's soldiers and horses. However, these soldiers who were transferred from Jinghaiwei had more combat experience than the new army. The queue of thousands of people was not panicked and at a loss, which was also due to the result of Li Dingguo's continuous going to sea to exterminate the pirates since he entered Jinghaiwei.

"Kill them all, brothers, and the food on the ship is ours!" A man who looked like an officer in the Tianjin Weiming army shouted loudly, wearing far on the empty beach, which added countless courage to the soldiers, and when they saw those grain ships, it was as if they saw the hope of survival.

"Kill him!" Zhu Ping'an adjusted his breathing and said coldly.

Shen Ke bowed and nodded, immediately ran to the front team, took a musket that was about half a foot longer than the Dengzhou rifle from his personal hand, loaded the bullets, and compacted them with strips, Shen Ke steadily put the musket flat, and a small clairvoyant was installed above the gun.

It was with this clairvoyant mirror that Shen Ke quickly locked on to the officer who had just shouted, with a gentle trigger, the hammer sounded crisply, and the flint slammed out sparks, and with a "snap", the officer hidden in the crowd was shot in the face and disappeared in the queue in an instant.

This accident made the pace of the Tianjin Weiguan Army's attack stagnant, obviously seven or eight hundred steps apart, but he didn't expect that the muskets of the Dengzhou Army on the opposite side could fire such a long distance. But then another officer shouted loudly, and the commanding men continued to charge forward.

"Snipers obey orders, clear all sight and range of officers! After that, fire in three stages, firing continuously! ”

In an instant, gunfire rang out in the ranks of the Dengzhou army, and the officers of the Tianjin Weiming army fell one after another, and even did not accidentally injure a single other Ming soldier. The formation of the Tianjin Weiming Army suddenly became chaotic, and the non-commissioned officers did not have the command and clamor of the officers, and their morale suddenly weakened a lot, but at this time, the entire formation still maintained a charging posture, and they could only helplessly follow the brigade and rush forward.

After a distance of 500 paces, the camp of the Dengzhou army began to shoot in unison, the first row finished firing, and they all took a few steps back, the second row stepped forward, and then the third row, and so on and so on, without stopping.

And the situation on the sea was reversed in an instant. The batteries on the road had been prepared for a long time, and as soon as the fleet of the Denglai Marine Division entered the range of the harbor batteries, the two batteries in the north and south could not wait to start bombarding.

After the first round of shelling, several ships of the Denglai Navy Division were hit, but compared to the Zheng Junshui Division encountered by the Denglai Navy Division before, these artillery fire on the Tianjin Wei Fort were obviously like children. Although the ship was damaged in different ways, the artillery on the Tianjin Wei Fort did not dare to compliment, although the sound was very loud, but the power of the shells hitting the ship was ordinary, not to mention the small caliber, and some of the shells were not rich in European style filled with some inferior nitrate, sulfur and other things, and even mixed with sand.

At the end of the first round of shelling, the soldiers on the battery excitedly cleaned the barrels of the guns and prepared for the second round of bombardment. In their opinion, this unexpected sneak attack had completely stunned the Denglai Sailors, and there was no suspense in the next battle. The sailors had already entered the harbor, and the small space did not allow them to make any dodge moves, and with the large number of ships, it was difficult to get out of range for a while.

But unexpectedly, just as they were cleaning the barrels and carrying the shells, the sea suddenly blew fiercely, and within their sight, they saw bursts of fire and white smoke suddenly coming out of the flanks of ships, followed by the deafening sound of cannons, which shook the entire sea surface, as if a gust of wind suddenly blew.

The left and right flanks of the ships of the Denglai Naval Division, which were protecting the grain ships, opened fire at the same time, and each ship had at least five or ten guns firing, and it was crowded in the harbor.

In the blink of an eye, the north and south forts bloomed with huge sparks, shells everywhere, every qiē turned into powder, Tianjin Wei's coastal defense fort was no more than 50 thousand pounds of Francophone artillery, usually fixed on this fort, to guard against the enemy at sea, but it was the first time to be ruthlessly attacked from the sea. After a round of bombardment, before they could be reloaded, the soldiers of the Denglai Marine Division were deflated to find that the entire north and south forts had turned into ruins, the original artillery was all dumb, and some sections of the fort had disappeared entirely, revealing a striking sandy yellow.

Seeing these scenes through the clairvoyant mirror, the officers of the Denglai Water Division also felt very incredible, and the fort of Tianjin Wei was also repaired and built by the Emperor of the Apocalypse himself, and it has only been more than ten years. But I didn't expect it to be so vulnerable, and when I saw the large patches of exposed earthy yellow mud and sand, everyone suddenly cried and laughed, it turned out that this north and south fort turned out to be the "tofu scum project" that Zhu Ping'an often talked about!

The rumbling cannon sound forcibly blocked the pace of the Tianjin Weiming army's charge, and watched the north and south batteries that were sure to win the battle become ruins after a round of shelling, which immediately frightened these soldiers into a soul, coupled with the attack on the opposite side like a rainstorm of pear blossoms, the officers fell one after another, and the soldiers no longer had the courage to charge forward.

"This, this is running?" The Dengzhou soldiers looked at each other. On the other side, the combat effectiveness of the Tianjin guards and horses was so ordinary that they were far inferior to the Zheng Jun or the pirates they had encountered before. Three rounds of firing and one round of artillery bombardment that had nothing to do with them could collapse thousands of troops in an instant, which was also a rare occurrence on this battlefield.

Rao is Zhu Ping'an was also stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly asked Shen Ke to give an order to the ship, ordering the ship to turn its gun muzzle and fire its cannon behind the landing route Tianjin Weimingjun, and extend the shooting.

But this is a bit difficult, the harbor is indeed narrow and abnormal, the guns of the ships are facing the battery, at this time it is a little difficult to turn around, in a hurry, there are ships colliding together, and there are more losses. In desperation, some of the ships that were a little closer to the shore could only be bombarded with heavy guns in the bow of the ship.

The Tianjin guards ran wildly, but they were caught off guard but suffered a burst of shelling in front of them, and the heavy shells fell on the beach, the bushes and the houses, and an explosion turned the place where the shells fell into powder, and immediately blocked the way of the scattered Ming soldiers.

The soldier who had a little brain suddenly understood the meaning, and hurriedly knelt in place with his head in his hands, shouting "I am willing to surrender", and no longer dared to move his steps. The other soldiers suddenly realized, and hurriedly followed suit, and in an instant, there were black and oppressed surrendered soldiers everywhere.

The ship's artillery bombardment stopped after a round, and the Dengzhou army quickly pressed on, and in a short time pressed nearly 3,000 prisoners to the beach to standby.

Zhu Ping'an, Yang Tinglin, Wang Pin and others stepped on the soft sand and walked to the dock, and several officials who were originally standing here had already fled, and before Zhu Ping'an could order, Shen Ke had already ordered the right thousand households to privately search for the person in charge, especially to catch Mao Yunju, who had just appeared.

Yang Tinglin looked at the dilapidated Tianjin Port, and couldn't help but sigh, "State affairs are like this, the court doesn't know anything about it, if they get hold of it today, the Beijing division will definitely be in chaos!" ”

Wang Pin was also deeply touched, "The ghost of the Fan family is not gone, Fengyang, Denglai, there are their shadows everywhere, this time in Beijing, the handsome may as well go to the road and listen to the sky." Our family also has to give the celebrant a sparse and explain the ins and outs of today, this cancer must be removed! ”

Zhu Ping'an didn't answer, but nodded lightly. This time it was also thanks to Huo Wu outside the gate, in fact, it was more of the credit of Ning Wan, who was held in the palm of his hand.

The Battle of Jinzhou was about to break out, and the armies of the Manchu banners were drawn one after another, but the movements of the Korean side made Huang Taiji and Dolgon a little jealous. Especially in the situation of unclear situation, they are even more afraid that Zhu Ping'an of Denglai will be involved, in case the battle ahead is in full swing, the Denglai Navy Division will go north and attack Liaodong from Korea, then the Manchu Qing can take care of one and lose the other, and fall into the situation of being attacked by the enemy on the back of the abdomen. Therefore, just in case, Huang Taiji sent 15,000 troops into the land of Tuntian in Uiju, under the unified command of Yingordai, to strictly prevent possible changes in Korea and Phi Dao.

At this time, the Manchu Qing Dynasty received news from Guannai and learned that due to the rebellion of the Liukou, the Ming Cao transportation channel was cut off, and the imperial court was forced to reopen the sea route to transport grain. Because of this, Huang Taiji and Dolgon started to play crookedly, if they can block this grain shipment, then the Ming court Jingshi will inevitably be in chaos, and then the Jinzhou army's heart will fluctuate, which will inevitably tilt the situation towards the Manchu side.

Therefore, Dolgon secretly ordered Ning Wan to contact the Fan family, and the Fan family contacted Maoyang Boliu Zhongshu and the great eunuch He Youling in the Beijing Division, and ordered them to arrange manpower to plot from it to seize this batch of grain and grass, and if it could be transported to the outside of the pass to replenish the Manchu army, it would be best to burn the grain and grass in case of defeat.
