Immediately, a rapid whistle sounded in the main camp of the Edo Port Marine Corps, and a group of soldiers in charge of the guard immediately rushed to the barracks fence and set up their muskets to wait for orders.

Hearing the whistle, the soldiers lying in their clothes immediately jumped up and rushed to the outside of the tent, the urgent and short number of reports immediately came and went, Yinxiang, Shi Shibi, and Long Keduo all slept on the battleship, and there were only Lin Wei, Fu Anding, and Fuhan in the camp.

Seeing a large figure with a short knife and spear rushing through the first fire like a tide, he didn't care about commanding the musketeers, and immediately turned around and rushed towards the artillery position arranged in the camp. Behind him, the "thump" of musket fire immediately sounded.

Mabu Quanyan and his party stood quietly on the side of the battlefield, and saw that the ronins had just rushed through the first fire, and there were at least two dings away from the main camp, and the other camp rang out a dense burst of gunfire, he couldn't help frowning, and immediately he saw a row of ronins rushing to the front and falling.

He couldn't help but open his mouth wide in shock, how could it be? How could the muskets of the Qing Kingdom injure people at such a distance? The Japanese artillery is inferior to others, but in terms of muskets, they are proud of themselves, their iron cannons are far superior to the Ming army in range, but now even the Qing muskets are stronger than them.

He immediately thought of gunpowder, and it must have been the Qing people who invented better gunpowder, otherwise it would not have been possible to make such amazing progress in muskets and artillery.

After the gunshots rang out, there was a rhythm one after another, and the ronin warriors who rushed in front fell to the ground one by one like cutting straw, but the endless figures still rushed forward one after another, and while rushing, they also kicked the fire apart, and the fire outside the field suddenly dimmed.

At this moment, there was a "boom" of artillery, followed by several successive roars of artillery. Several shells landed side by side on the first line of defense with considerable accuracy, and the bursting shrapnel flew out, and the dense charging team fell in one piece.

Blossom bombs! Mabe Quanyan was shocked, the other party was the navy, and he even brought artillery ashore? And there are also flowering bombs! A bad feeling suddenly rose in his heart.

Before he could react, the sound of "boom boom boom" shelling rang out in pieces, and the whistling shells instantly fell densely among the people, and the violent explosions rang out in pieces. In the dark night, Dan saw countless fireballs flashing in the air or on the ground, and immediately cleared an empty area in the dense crowd.

Mabe's face turned pale, what kind of artillery is this, how can it be shelled at such a close distance? He stood fifty paces away and still heard the sound of countless shrapnel flying everywhere, and the guards around him immediately guarded him tightly.

All the charging ronins were stunned by the sound of the violent explosions, and the people behind them looked at the large crowd in front of them that suddenly became empty, and the ground was full of corpses and the wounded who were rolling and wailing and moaning, and they couldn't help but stop their steps quickly, looking at the situation in front of them. I don't know how to be good.

The ronin, who had already rushed to the front, couldn't help but stop and look behind him when he heard such a violent explosion behind him. Seeing this situation is also flute, this is a situation they dare not imagine, and they can't imagine, how can artillery be so powerful?

After only a moment's hesitation, the successive waves of ronins rolled forward like a rushing river, and the ronins in the flow of people were frightened but were coerced forward. ..., the crowd had just filled the area that had been emptied by artillery fire. The dense roar of artillery was heard again, and it was clearly felt that this round of roaring was more dense and lasted longer than the previous one.

Mabe couldn't help but close his eyes in pain. How many artillery guns did the Qing Navy have? Since it is possible to shell like a musket?

The whistling cannonball swarm not only landed in the old place, but also began to extend backwards, and the dense explosion sounded in the crowd again, and the rolling crowd was immediately blown out of countless gaps, even the ronin with good obedience could not withstand the rapid high-density and high-intensity bombardment, and immediately scattered like ants that had blown up their nests.

The Marines did not pause, and at the sound of the command, one group after another of soldiers joined in the firing, and the gunfire became more and more intense, and the fire outside the barracks gradually extinguished, and only human figures could be seen in the darkness.

At this moment, a huge firework suddenly burst into the sky, illuminating the entire battlefield, and all the ronins involuntarily looked up at the sky, for fear of some powerful artillery. The musketeers of the Marine Corps, however, seized this brief opportunity to fire two rounds in succession, and the artillery was not to be outdone, firing a volley.

With a moment of light, the Mabu interpretation also saw the situation of the entire battlefield clearly, the first batch of 7,000 people had become a pot of porridge, there was no formation for a long time, and they were rushing to flee for their lives, and the open space in front of the entire barracks was already full of corpses, could the first wave of attacks end like this? Whether to launch a second wave of attacks, the question is whether those ronins still dare to charge?

I can't help but dare to be embarrassed, what should I do? Now what? His three waves of attacks are very important, and they directly affect the attacks on the water and the subsequent general attacks, so they can't just end like this!

Such a big movement on the shore had already alarmed all the warships anchored in the harbor, and the sharp whistle echoed throughout the harbor, and all the soldiers got up and gathered as fast as they could.

On the flagship, Yinxiang, Shi Shibiu, and Long Keduo all rushed to the deck early in the morning to look, and they couldn't really open in the dark, only listening to the dense gunfire and the roar of artillery.

Yinxiang said in a deep voice: "If you don't hear the sound of artillery and muskets from the Japanese country, the camp will not be in danger." ”

"With so many artillery shells repeatedly, the Japanese State must have dispatched a large number of men." Long Keduo sighed lightly: "Where is this night attack, this is purely a night battle attack. ”

"It's just a prelude." Shi Shibiao said in a deep voice.

Prelude? There is such a violent prelude? Yinxiang and Long Keduo listened to it, and Yinxiang hurriedly asked, "Why did General Shi say this?" ”

Shi Shibiao didn't answer, but said in a deep voice: "The herald is that all warships stick to their respective posts and must not act rashly." ”

As soon as they heard this order, Yinxiang and the others were even more confused, since they judged that there was a larger attack on land, why didn't they order the battleship to prepare artillery support?

Shi Shibiao looked at the constantly flashing fires on the shore motionlessly, and said in a deep voice: "The Japanese have cavalry and musketeers, knowing that we are well guarded, but they have not dispatched elites, which can only show that these people who are attacking now are cannon fodder, either the drunkard's intention is not to drink, or he wants to fight a wheel battle." ”
