********************************************************************

Zhu Yongxing and the General Staff Headquarters were in the rear, and the strategy was formulated in accordance with their own comprehensive strength, and the most prudent military plan was adopted. But on the front line, the strategy is implemented, but the size of the results depends on the ability and courage of the front-line generals.

On November 29, nine days had passed since the Ming army had broken through the Hejian defensive line, and a cloud-like sail appeared on the sea from the mouth of the Yanghe River in the east to the mouth of the Daihe River in the west. Under the stunned gaze of the Qing army, the rumbling sound of artillery broke the silence of the early morning. The Ming Army's naval division divided two small battle fleets and violently bombarded the batteries at Yanghekou and Daihekou, and tried to trace the river.

The Qing garrison of the Nanhai Camp and Haikou hurriedly commanded the batteries to fire and bombard the Ming fleet, and deployed troops on the river bank to prevent the Ming army from sailing into the inland river and landing.

After the artillery battle lasted for an hour and a half, the Qing army battery was damaged, and the long guns and cannons of the Ming army's naval division destroyed almost all the artillery on the battery. Subsequently, the sailors began to force their way up the river, blowing up the barrage and violently bombarding the defending Qing troops on the riverbank.

One, two, three...... Just when the Qing army was busy mobilizing troops to intercept the two estuaries of the river, the Ming army's sailors anchored at sea lowered their boats, and more than 100 ten-person landing boats chopped the waves, rowed like flying, and rushed towards the coast.

"Quick. Come on! Yang Jinxin, the chief flag officer, desperately urged the oarsmen.

He was born in Shinanfu, Kuizhou, and was originally the remnant of the Dashun army, and when the remnant of the Dashun army moved to Kuidong, he stayed in Guangxi due to injury. When the Ming army re-entered Guangxi, he joined the army again, which can be regarded as whitewashing his history. And all the way to the battle, from a small soldier to the chief flag officer. Now that the war has arrived, Yang Jinxin also understands that it is almost time to unload his armor and return to the field, but he still has a goal, that is, to be promoted to battalion command. Because there are regulations in the imperial court, those who are at the level of battalion commander can be placed as local officials after retirement.

In other words, Yang Jinxin is not satisfied with the cultivation after retirement. He still wants to eat imperial food, and he is still an official.

The area where the Ming army chose to land was the seaside tourist area of Beidaihe in later generations, where the beach was sandy and the slope was relatively gentle, and more importantly, it was a weak area for the Qing army's defense, with only a few piers and a total of only 300 Qing soldiers.

Wolf smoke rose from the platform. Yang Jinxin sneered, the beach was already close in front of him. Even if the Qing army gathers to attack, I am afraid that it will be too late.

The ship was already grounded, Yang Jinxin shouted, and took the lead in jumping into the waist-deep seawater, holding up the musket and bullet sac in his hand. Rushing to the shore in the biting cold.

"Rush, kill!"

Some of the survival tricks in the cold regions have already been communicated to the whole army, and how much they can master is the ability of individuals. Yang Jinxin knew that he must not stop at this time, he must not shrink into a ball, and he must run. You have to move, you have to sweat, you have to drive away the chill that has penetrated into your bones. He hastily gathered dozens of soldiers, held banners, and rushed towards a group of Qing troops who were rushing towards this side.

Looking at the banner of the headquarters, the soldiers of the Ming army, who had successively boarded the beach, followed the team, rushed towards the enemy, and started a fierce battle with the enemy.

"Shoot!" After a loud shout, a deafening volley was fired, and more than thirty muskets spewed flames and white smoke, bursting with blood on the bodies of the Qing troops on the opposite side. Screams rang out, but the remaining Qing troops still howled and rushed forward, sending a rain of arrows.

More than a dozen Ming soldiers fell, and in order to reduce their weight, the soldiers who landed on the beach only wore light armor and helmets, and their protection against bows and arrows was greatly reduced.

"Hold up in front, reload in the back." Yang Jinxin roared, an arrow shot at the helmet, it did not hurt him, he knew that time was victory, and there were comrades behind him who were constantly coming, as long as he withstood a short time, it was victory.

The sound of thumping continued, and the two sides collided violently, bayonets were stabbing and swords flashing in the air, and suddenly there was a tragic rush of flesh and blood. After the first team began to engage, the Ming army behind also quickened its pace, preparing to merge into the front to fight.

Yang Jinxin flashed sideways, and the bayonet in his hand stabbed violently, stabbing into the chest of a Qing soldier. Without waiting for him to pull back, a Qing soldier brandished a big knife and slashed over, he hurriedly turned, the big knife slashed at the gun, and his hands were taken off, the Qing soldier broke out fiercely, pushed the knife along the body of the gun, Yang Jinxin couldn't pull it back, his body leaned back, and he was just about to stand up after rolling over on the ground, he suddenly roared a few times in his ears, and the white smoke in front of him was in the sky, Yang Jinxin was shocked to the point of dizziness, and the Qing soldier on the opposite side fell heavily to the ground with his bloody chest.

A group of Ming troops arrived in time, fired indiscriminately at medium and close range, and immediately put down a few Qing soldiers in front, and the place where the two sides were engaged was filled with a cloud of white smoke, and the vision suddenly blurred.

But neither side could retreat, Yang Jinxin opened his mouth wide to eliminate tinnitus, picked up a big knife from the ground, and brandished indiscriminate chopping. He felt that something had been struck again and again, and he didn't know if it was a man or a shield, but he could only hear screams and angry shouts from the other side.

The two sides fought desperately on the beach, the corpses were piled up all over the place, and then they were stepping on the corpses of each other to fight, and the Ming troops behind kept coming, first musket shooting, then bayonet fighting, and finally those Qing soldiers suffered heavy losses, and fled back in panic shouting. The Ming army ran outside to chase and kill, expanding to a larger landing ground.

More and more Ming soldiers landed on the beach, and the troops of the three general banners gathered under the banner of the commander-in-chief, and after the tragic battle, only six or seven hundred of the assault troops of nearly 1,000 people were still standing. They quickly formed three small phalanxes and advanced to attack in depth, expanding the landing ground and ensuring the safety of the landing site.

After emptying the soldiers, the landing ship hurried back to pick up the next group of soldiers. Only by continuous investment can we stabilize the situation, form a superiority in troops, coordinate land and water, and seize the port, so as to prepare a large group of men and horses and baggage to go ashore calmly.

The battle line stretched for several kilometers, and the Qing army's defensive strength seemed to be stretched, and more and more Ming troops rushed to land on the beach, not only to stabilize the landing ground, but also to form a phalanx to attack the mouth of the river, to cooperate with the battle of the naval division.

It was clear that the Qing troops stationed there were not familiar with anti-landing operations, they had not even experienced a similar battle, and Yan Zòng lacked experience in dealing with them. In fact, as far as the entire Manchu Qing was concerned, they were unskilled in dealing with threats from the sea, and could only hope to destroy the enemy who dared to attack on land.

Such a defensive idea, coupled with the weapons and equipment that lagged behind the Ming army, it was difficult to resist the large-scale landing of the Ming army in a suitable area. Not to mention that according to the current level of technology and relying on the financial resources of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it would never be possible to build a coastal defense line similar to the "Atlantic barrier".
