Chapter 716: God's Light
Several pairs of eyes were cast through the air, and by this time, the flares had been extinguished, and the flames and tongues of fire from the muzzles of the guns were more clear against the dark background, and they were no longer all annihilated in the dazzling white light as they had just been.
And the artillery fire of the coalition forces seems to be in order.
Compare the contrast before and after the flares are fired, "Oh, I see! Peng Yulin, who was on the same boat, shouted: "It must be that the brightness of the flare is too high, showing off a white light, and if you are in it, your eyes are already thankful that your eyes are not burned, how can you see us!" ”
"Yes, yes!" Boss Chen shouted: "Order, fire flares from gunboats, fire cannonballs from battleships, pay attention to movement, don't be targeted by the enemy!" ”
By the light and the shout, orders were sent to the ships, and in a short time the flares were mixed in with the shells and poured away.
"Oh my God, what the hell is this? How can it be so bright, my eyes can't see, I've become blind, how can I fire if I can't see it? I beg you who will save me. ”
The brightness of the flare can reach 500,000 candles, and the light is released in front of the eyes, and the soldiers on the deck may not be blinded, but their eyes are red, swollen and stinging, and the tears are flowing freely, and they are no different from the blind in a short time.
Speaking of which, the coalition forces also suffered a sudden loss, the flare is the first time that this thing has been launched, the sudden strong light, against the background of the dark night sky, can be seen with the naked eye, no one can stand it, unless they wear goggles, but who will prepare in advance? All of a sudden, it was devastated.
"Look, Peter, Carl. And they were all gone, he disappeared in the white light, damn, damned, was he taken away by God's holy light! ”
A terrifying scene arose, a flare fell on the ship. The high temperature of several thousand degrees not only burned a big hole in the deck, but also vaporized several soldiers around it instantly, and the white light flashed, and the people were gone, as if God really sent down a holy light and summoned people to heaven. There is also flesh and blood, and when it hits a flare, it is vaporized, and there are no bones left!
"We have to get out of here, God's light is terrifying, and there are those unknown bombs that sink a warship in one shot, and those who don't want to die should go ashore quickly, it's not that we have to run away. It's the Democratic Alliance that is too powerful, and a few gentlemen will understand. ”
"Not bad. Yes, we are short of manpower, we can't open the ship if we open the gun, we can't fire the gun when we open the ship, and if we don't move and let him fight, isn't that looking for death? Damn China. I don't want to come again, I'd rather go home and be court-martialed, go, go! ”
The unknown is the most terrifying, and groups of soldiers squint and swarm towards the trestle. Some people are holding their blind companions, but more blind companions are abandoned on the ship, after all, at this time, it is important to escape, the dead friends do not die poorly, as long as the dead are not themselves, and even have to jump directly into the mudflats by the sea, one foot deep, one foot shallow to flee to the shore, and after a while, the counterattack of the coalition fleet stopped.
"Commander Chen, the foreigners may have escaped, should we go over and have a look?" Looking at the opposite side of the sudden silence, Peng Yulin said uncertainly.
"This" Boss Chen showed hesitation, generally speaking, if he didn't open fire, he basically fled, but he was afraid that the foreigners would have an ambush, so he lured his fleet to the front of a salvo, you know, the family of the Democratic Alliance Navy is all in his hands, and if anything goes wrong, he will die ten thousand times and have no face to see Wang Feng.
took out his pocket watch and looked at it, Boss Chen said slowly: "It's four o'clock now, and the sky will be bright in two hours, and when it dawns, we will be careful to dock again, forgive foreigners who can't play with ghosts, give an order, stop the launch, the whole army will rest on the spot, and be on strict alert!" ”
The order was given, and the warships hovered on the surface of the sea, only occasionally firing one or two flares to probe the situation.
Two hours passed, and a white light gradually appeared in the sky, and a red sun rose over the horizon, and the fleet approached cautiously until it landed ashore.
On the seashore and on the ships, there were scattered corpses, a small number of blind soldiers waiting to die, the rest had all run away, and there were more than 20 transport ships with different degrees of injury, and nearly 30 warships of various types.
Including the French battleships Brinita and Glory, the cruiser Banshee, the British battleship Yuriales, the Spanish battleships Arapars and Aragon, and other medium and large ocean-going warships, it can be said that the Allied Navy was completely wiped out!
The soldiers cheered vigorously, you must know that the most lacking thing in the NLD Navy is warships, and after the nearly 30 warships captured are repaired and refitted, they can be put into battle to make up for the lack of warships in various fleets, and the total annihilation of the coalition fleet also means that the Singapore problem will no longer be a problem.
Boss Chen breathed a long sigh of relief, and looked at the captured warships with a relaxed body, many of which had large holes about a meter diameter on the deck, which was obviously the result of being hit by a flare.
Chen Lao Liu couldn't help but sigh: "Who would have thought in advance that it would be a flare that has made a great contribution." ”
Boss Chen nodded and said: "Don't say that it is unexpected by us, I'm afraid that the commander-in-chief will be surprised when he learns about it, come and arrange for people to treat the prisoners, if they are blind or missing arms and legs, make up a shot and give it a good time, so as not to live for the rest of their lives without ghosts." ”
"Yes!" The herald walked away quickly
On the Desheng Gate in Beijing, the flag is fluttering, the wind is loud, a statue of artillery is filled with ammunition, there are fortifications wrapped in mud and sand under the city, only the black cannon muzzle is exposed, behind the city gate, there are thousands of Mongolian cavalry in ambush, a tense atmosphere, the foreigners are not unexpectedly coming.
Although the army of 17,000 foreigners is not much, it has brought heavy psychological pressure to the defenders, since the Jintian uprising, the Qing army has lost many victories, especially with the rise of the Democratic Alliance, it has never won a victory, and not long ago, it was killed by foreigners, although it was already a backwater battle, but morale still fell to the top.
Don't look at Yixun in front of the foreigners, he showed a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water and broke the jar, but the foreigner really came, and his palms were full of sweat!
The foreigners did not directly attack the city of Beijing, but were distributing troops, looking at this style, they planned to leave three or five thousand people stationed under the city of Beijing, and the rest of the brigade to rob the Old Summer Palace.
Standing on the head of the city, Zaiyuan felt that his legs were a little fluttering, and he immediately asked without words: "Lord Gong, didn't you say that foreigners would agree to our request?" No matter how you look at it, you still have to fight. ”
Yixun forced himself to calm down and said: "If you don't fight a foreigner, are you willing to use it for me?" King Yi can rest assured that the Old Summer Palace has dispatched 30,000 troops to the past, as long as it is guarded until dark, this king is not afraid that foreigners will not cooperate with us. ”
That being said, but everyone's hearts are beating drums, the key is that the Qing army has become a habit of eating defeats, and even developed to the point of collapse at the touch of a button, I am afraid that before they fight, the defenders of the Old Summer Palace have dispersed in a hurry, and then the foreigners grabbed a pass and threw their hands away, leaving themselves to be killed by the Democratic Alliance Army.
Countless pairs of eyes stared at the foreigners' army, hoping that the foreigners would change their minds, but to their dismay, the foreigners quickly allocated their troops, 13,000 people were ready to go, especially some people smiled and waved their hands towards the city, as if to say: Dude, brother, I went to rob your house, you stand here and drink the northwest wind.
What a shame!
"Sixth brother, look, there are foreigners behind!" Yi Xun suddenly pointed to the east.
Everyone's hearts trembled, and more than a thousand foreigners came to the east, but as the distance approached, they gradually discovered that something was wrong.
This team of foreigners is not in good shape, ragged, without any heavy weapons, not even many with guns, and there are still people holding each other and walking together, which is clearly a remnant of the defeated army!
Yixun hurriedly raised the binoculars, and sure enough, many foreigners had traces of smoke and fire on their bodies, a considerable number of eyes were red and swollen, and a small number of people had white cloths on their eyes.
"This should be a foreigner stationed in Tianjin, is it a defeat? So, the back road of the foreigner was copied by the short hair? Su Shun exclaimed in surprise and joy.
It's not just him, most people are surprised, calling you to rob it, the way out is cut off, can you transport it away if you rob it? And more importantly, this may force foreigners to join forces with themselves to fight against short hair!
Those who had telescopes did not even blink, and those who did not have telescopes stared at their eyeballs to the maximum, and the foreigners also discovered their embarrassed companions.
"What's going on?" Fernand saw the strangeness at a glance, and his face changed greatly.
Bao Ling's face also sank quickly, this is obviously the Tianjin defenders, but now he has escaped, what happened, he didn't dare to think about it.
Sure enough, without waiting for these big men to ask, a British colonel rubbed his red eyes and cried: "Gentlemen, we are finished, we can't go back to the motherland, the Democratic Alliance Army uses a weapon called God's holy light, which can emit dazzling white light, when it explodes, our eyes are white, nothing can be seen, some people's eyes are directly blinded, and the temperature in the center of the white light can melt steel, I saw with my own eyes, several of my companions were vaporized instantly, not even a single hair was left, this battle can't be fought"
More than 1,000 people vied with each other to speak, and the words were full of fear, and the whole army was in an uproar!
"Mr. Pauling, our warship is gone, how can we go back to Japan, how can we return to China? What are we going to do? ”
"Mr. Pauling, I suggest that all these deserters be shot, because they have buried our back road, and we must bear full responsibility!"
"Mr. Baoling, are we going to rob the Old Summer Palace?"
"Of course we have to rob it, if we rob it, we can go to North Korea first, cross the sea from North Korea to Japan, and then find a way to return home from Japan!"
"Enough! Shut up! With the chatter around him, Bolling suddenly felt extremely irritable and roared! (To be continued......)
