Chapter 309: The Power of One Shot

The sound of the cannon was deafening, no more than not knowing that it was a fright, not only was the sound surprisingly loud, but Zhou Huchen's artillery accuracy and range were also much stronger than the red-coated cannon.

Five long projectiles came straight towards the city wall, Atul has a lot of experience, this experience includes standing at the head of the city to dodge and observe, the projectile is running towards the city wall under him, according to experience, in the face of artillery attacks, as long as you shrink your head and not be hit by the projectile, the female wall of the city wall is the most haode shelter. At such a distance, the projectile hitting the city wall is just scary, and if you want to collapse the city wall, at such a distance, is the artillery power enough?

The experience of the battlefield often represents the difference between life and death, and the Qing Dynasty Meile Zhangjing Atu showed the world this, and he witnessed this with many Qing generals at the head of Tianjin, including two Han generals who had just arrived here.

Bombarding the city wall with artillery requires a lot of power, as well as a suitable distance and uninterrupted attacks, which is the experience of the deputy capital of the Qing Dynasty.

Atul was wrong, he didn't understand Zhou Huchen's artillery, if he didn't understand, he was wrong, and if he was wrong, he would have to pay the price, and it was the price of his life.

Zhou Qian saw it very accurately, and he always sneered, because he had a clairvoyant mirror in his hand, the most accurate gunner and the incomparably powerful steel-chested cannon, and Atul's fingers and feet were clearly seen by him, and the five giant cannons were aimed at the city wall under Attu.

The five projectiles hit the middle and lower parts of the city wall exactly according to the intended target, and immediately after, a huge explosion was heard, and the bombarded city wall trembled a few times, and then there was an earth-shattering muffled sound.

The city wall collapsed like this, and the people on the city wall didn't know how to feel, and it was estimated that they were still at a loss at this moment

It was not far from the city of Tianjin, but Luo Yangxing was lucky, he saw the city head firing artillery, and also saw that there seemed to be a problem with an artillery. Follow. The sound of cannons outside the city rang out, and the sound of cannons was so cordial that Luo Yangxing, who heard the sound of cannons, stepped back

The young Eight Banners junior officer who came to supervise Luo Yangxing felt Luo Yangxing's retreat, this kind of retreat was very common among these former Ming officials, and the young man frowned contemptuously: "Boss"

The words behind the little officer were muffled by a loud bang, and at the same time, a section of the city wall in front of him disappeared and the ground trembled, except for that regular stunned, everyone didn't know what to say Is this the tofu scum project of the Ming Dynasty?

Luo Yang's sex is old and fine, and this junior officer only has two people. And Luo Yangxing's entourage is more than 20 people, these people are his henchmen, Luo Yangxing decisively shouted: "Cut!" ”

More than 20 people are actually prepared, Luo Yangxing is prepared anyway, these subordinates all know, but the collapse of the city wall made them stunned for a moment, but with Luo Yangxing's shout, more than 20 people quickly pulled out their knives.

There is no suspense, the same as chopping melons and vegetables. The three Eight Banners warriors were defenseless, and the strong Eight Banners warriors were cut beyond recognition in an instant.

At this time, a signal flare with a red glow rose high into the air outside the city.

The city wall collapsed, and the signal flare was sent out to completely mess up the entire city of Tianjin. All kinds of shouts and wails resounded throughout the Tianjin Acropolis. Not all of the newly attached Han troops have the qualifications and conditions to be notified in advance, but these people who did not know in advance saw the situation very clearly, Tianjin was doomed, and the time for return had come. Don't wait for when?

Zhou Huchen's propaganda work has completely penetrated into Tianjin, and he is a fool anyway at this time, and everyone has heard of the conditions given by Zhou Huchen. The reason why these people returned to Jiannu was nothing more than to save their lives and to eat with their mouths. Jiannu is brutal, murder and robbery, embezzlement of property is the norm, oppression of the people is commonplace, the heart that has been suppressed for a long time has become not extremely strong, national hatred, brutal control makes all the new Han troops act almost at the same time

In addition to the red-coated cannons, there are many artillery pieces in Tianjin City, but these cannons have not sounded at all, and there are many cannons in Tianjin City, but the key is who will use it, who will load and fire. The number of the Eight Banners of the Qing Army was too small, and Wuzhen Chaoha actually only controlled the few red-coated cannons, and as for the firearms such as the general cannon and the Fulong machine gun, they were actually all in the hands of the Xinfu Han Army. No one will light the cannon, and igniting the cannon at this time is tantamount to suicide, because almost all the new Han troops took up arms and aimed them at Jiannu.

Tens of thousands of people outside the city had already rushed to the not big Tianjin Acropolis at the same time, and the shouts echoed in the sky for a long time.

The moat of Tianjin was wide and deep, but this obstacle was no longer an obstacle, because no one attacked the Ming army outside the city. Easily put up a long special ladder and set up a wooden plank, and the Ming army rushed in at the collapsed place.

The number of Qing troops was too small, and there was no one to defend this huge gap. After all, the collapsed city wall still has a certain height, and it is not easy for someone to desperately defend and want to enter the city, but unfortunately these Eight Banner defenders were completely pinned down by those new Han troops anyway, and the Zhou and Huang coalition forces easily entered the chaotic Tianjin Acropolis

Zhou Huchen was on a horse, and he did not enter the city, because the battle in the city did not need him as a commander.

"So easy, one shot, one shot! The young marshal asked me to wait for shame! ”

The one who spoke was Huang Degong's chief soldier Ma Degong, the title of this young marshal is the old name, but this old name shows that Ma Degong and Zhou Huchen have a close relationship, and this style and statement is undoubtedly a kind of praise for Zhou Huchen.

"Where can such a small city withstand the attack of giant artillery, Tianjin is only the first step, General Ma is waiting for a more brilliant battle in the northern capital! Maybe maybe the northern capital won't be able to use the giant cannon" Zhou Huchen raised his head gently, the first step of this spring offensive had been taken easily, and he began to look forward to the northern capital and the overall situation of the whole world.

"Naturally, there is no problem in the northern capital, the army of the commander to recover the north is our long-cherished wish, thousands of people of the Ming Dynasty are looking at the young marshal, Bixia is looking at the young marshal, the princes of the Manchu Dynasty are also looking at the young marshal, the young marshal will become the youngest duke of my Ming Dynasty, and the subordinates congratulate in advance!"

Ma Degong undoubtedly continued to compliment Zhou Huchen, because Emperor Hongguang once told the world that whoever led the army to drive Jiannu out of the Guannei and recovered the entire territory of the Ming Dynasty would be crowned a duke, and he was a hereditary duke.

"Feng Gong is actually just like that, it's just glory, take the northern capital, there are too many things to do in the future, is General Ma willing to continue to gallop the world with this commander?" Zhou Huchen doesn't value this feudal duke, feudal duke is equivalent to restraining his hands and feet, he still has a lot of great things to do, in fact, the later this feudal duke comes, the better.

"Of course you don't care about Feng Gong! You are the first concubine of the dynasty, the first favorite of Bixia, the generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty, and the first favorite of the people of Jida Tomorrow! ”

It's just what he thinks in his heart, Ma Degong didn't dare to say it, he immediately responded to Zhou Huchen's invitation: "It is your duty, the young marshal can afford to look at his subordinates, you can fight wherever you point to, throw your head, sprinkle blood, and your subordinates will not hesitate."

On February 23 of the second year of Hongguang, the Zhou and Huang coalition forces took Tianjin lightly, and the first battle of the spring offensive led by Zhou Huchen ended easily. (To be continued......)
