Chapter 264: Ill-intentioned assistance

The nine ships formed a linear array, and the signal corps on the flagship gave instructions, and after each ship finished loading, the signal was issued.

"All set!" Andor came to report, and when Silao cleaned up, Andor drew his saber from his waist, walked to the edge of the gun emplacement, raised it, and waved it vigorously. There was a long dragon of people, and the people and carriages were crowded together, so they didn't need to aim at all.

"Boom"! One shot fired, this was the order, and the rest of the ships gave the order to open fire. The so-called salvo fire is not fired by four guns at this time, but by the second fire. The advantage of this is that the danger to the hull is small, and the cannon is not accurate, the ship is always moving, and the second fire can ensure coverage.

The Houjin army, which was marching, watched the shells fly over, and was very calm at first, and when they were really about to fall into the crowd, they immediately blew up their nests. Yue Tuo, who was a little behind, fainted when he saw this scene. What's going on? With such a long distance, how can it be four or five miles, right? What cannon can hit so far? Is this still Dengzhou Sailor?

This was not a dream, and soon Yue Tuo knew what pain was. Nearly a third of the lead bullets of 39 12-pounder guns fell in the ranks of the marchers, pulling out a long line of blood and falling to the wounded and disabled people on the ground.

What's even more painful is that this team is the vanguard of Houjin, and they are all Eight Banner warriors on horseback.

The catastrophe continued, and the order was to fire three rapid shots, naturally, three rounds of shelling in a row. It was clear that the subsequent shelling was more accurate, but it did not work well, and the Houjin cavalry quickly dispersed. The actual effect of shelling is not to kill, but to intimidate.

Seeing the effect in the telescope, Silao Jing was sorry and shrugged, "We wasted a lot of shells. ”

Andor smiled and said, "No, no, no, I think Your Excellency will be deeply appreciative of your initiative to attack and slow down the enemy's march for at least half a day." ”

"I hope so, too, and order the boats to cruise around this area. Damn shallow seas. We can't get too close to the coast. ”

The road must not be taken, and the fleet, which has caused at least 100 casualties, is cruising on the sea, and fools know to hide a little. This is even more regrettable for the Western Labor Classic. The coastline at the other end. Reefs are dense. It is not suitable for large ships to move at all, otherwise it will be flanked on both sides, and this narrow passage. To think about it is to pay a heavy price.

Yue Tuo reacted quickly, the team dispersed, and the cavalry dismounted and walked, so as not to make the target too big. A team of one or two hundred men marched through Guò, a passage threatened by warships. Fortunately, the warship did not fire again, and it seemed that there was no better opportunity. But then Yue Tuo got to the problem, what should the artillery team do? Looking at this meaning, it can only be passed at night.

After some tossing, it was finally dark, and the warships on the sea were reluctant to leave, Yue Tuo had the courage to let the artillery team pass Guò, and when he walked to the part of the road where he was baptized by the cannonballs, he saw that there were blood stains that had solidified all over the ground, and it was already dark. More than 30 people were killed on the spot, more than a dozen were seriously injured and died, and more than 60 wounded were either without hands or feet.

was bombarded before he got out of the division, and a deep uneasiness rose from the bottom of his heart again. Yue Tuo suddenly thought of a name, and it was this name that made him humiliated in Zunhua. At this moment, a fast horse arrived: "Master, the news from Dengzhou, the Dengzhou soldiers began to assemble two days ago, and today I am afraid that they have arrived in Lushun." ”

The Derge class, who was left behind and pressed the formation, also followed at this time, and found Yue Tuo and said, "Lord Belle, are you reporting to Fengtian?" Yue Tuo's face was heavy, and he nodded: "Report as quickly as possible, this time we have encountered big trouble." ”

Lushun, Wang Qinian finally lived in the city, and construction was being carried out everywhere on the humble wharf. Huang Long had no opinion on this, and the Dengzhou battalion continued to widen the trestle bridge and strengthen the wharf, which showed that they really came to fight, not to deal with it.

After the night passed, Huang Long had lost his temper. These Dengzhou soldiers are no longer as simple as rich flowing oil. In the entire city of Arthur, there are only 200 pieces of armor. The others are all equipment such as mandarin duck battle jackets. Look at the people, the pockets carried by the pikemen are all plate armor that has been very popular in the Guanning Army recently. Bird soldiers, one person with a pair of chain mail. Except for the sappers who went into the water to work, and the artillery team that came ashore late at night, everyone else was a pair of armor. That's a lot of silver?

Li Weiluan, Xiang Zuolin, Fan Hualong, Zhang Dalu, and Shang Keyi, the generals who died in Lushun in history, were all watching in the camp of the Dengzhou soldiers at the moment, and they were swallowing saliva one by one. The local tyrant, too tyrant, is already a tyrant to the point of being inhumane.

Early in the morning, Wang Qinian gave an order, the Dengzhou battalion took over the outer city, and all the soldiers in Dongjiang Town returned to the inner city to rest, and sent all the people to go out of the outer city to help dig a ditch. The Dengzhou soldiers themselves were behind the outer city, and they were also waving small shovels and digging and digging.

Huang Long explained to a group of his subordinates and guarded the inner city with peace of mind. Look at this meaning, the Dengzhou soldiers are ready to fight the world. Everyone understands in their hearts that it is right to say that it is 5,000 soldiers, but the problem is that the equipment is too poor. There are only 200 pairs of armor, which can also be called an army? Don't say it, in the entire Dongjiang Town, now with this little bit of family background, there are 200 families who can play positively.

Lin He smiled and walked out of the barracks that had been repaired overnight and walked towards these generals. He didn't have any good intentions, the chief of staff had a list, and he had already matched them one by one, and asked people to invite these five early in the morning.

"I'm sorry, guys. I should have come to visit, but there are too many things, so I have to ask you to work hard. Lin He arched his hand to speak, and there was no strength to return the gift here, only Li Weiluan was still tough, what happened to the local tyrant? Go to the battlefield and see the real chapter. However, Kong Youde is also very capable of fighting, and it seems that he was destroyed by them. Thinking of this, Li Weiluan lost his confidence.

"By the way, what about 500 people from each family? Why didn't you see it? Lin He asked with a smile, and Li Weiluan came out to answer: "Didn't you say it, wait on the dock, the soldiers are gone, we are here to wait for you." "Yin and Yang are weird, and my heart is sour. If it weren't for the fact that the Dengzhou battalion was here to help fight the war, it would have been able to rob the girl.

"Well, let's go, go to the docks."

There are five cargo ships docked at the wharf, and there are more than a dozen cargo ships on the sea, and with the widened trestle, it is obviously much more convenient. More than 2,000 soldiers were scattered near the dock, and there was not a single one in the line. Lin He was disdainful in his heart, if this was the Dengzhou camp, the military stick would have come down early. I don't know why the chief of staff gave such an order.

"See, the cargo on the five boats ahead belongs to the five of you. Everyone has a point, don't grab it, everyone has a share. The place is small, Solitaire will be there, right? One by one, the goods were passed over, and the goods were passed back. ”

Lin He spoke, his heart ached, 2,500 pairs of chain mail, how much silver does this cost.

Chen Xie is really not panicked about burning too much silver, but this kind of chain mail is really too simple, a thick wire is wrapped around a ring, and then some of the old and weak refugees wear it and weave it into chain mail. Iron wire is only a few dollars, and modern society is not too cheap. According to iron, a pair of chain mail weighs only fifteen catties, and the price of the pit father is sixty or seventy yuan. The labor money for the establishment of the Ming Dynasty was not spent, and it was enough to give three meals to eat. The old, weak, sick and disabled have nothing to do, so they rush to do this job.

When he saw in historical materials that there were only 200 pairs of armor in a city in Lushun, Chen Xie was also stupid. But in this battle. Houjin paid the price of 4,000 casualties. How did this come about? Even if one-tenth of it is really Jiannu, this is still 400 casualties. It can be seen that in the battle of Lushun, Huanglong fought very tenaciously. Just rush to this, Chen Xie still has to pit him, just to be gentle. Go back and give him a sum of money to go home to retire, these fierce generals who died in battle, Chen Xie laughed and accepted, it is very cost-effective to use as cannon fodder troops.

Everything was packed in a cardboard box, and one by one was sent back, and when they arrived at the dock, several people couldn't help it, Li Weiluan asked Lin He: "Can you see what it is?" Lin He said angrily: "Look, it's all your things." ”

Open a box, and the chain mail inside is neatly stacked, and I don't even bother to paint a little bit. Just this, the eyes of all five people are red. Shang Keyi grabbed a pair of chain mail, pressed it to his chest, and said in disbelief: "How many are they for us?" ”

Lin He nodded painfully and said, "Let your people hurry up, don't you see that there are still boats floating on the sea?" Will you work? ”

The tone was a little ugly, but now everyone didn't have the heart to care. This Chen Xie is really a local tyrant of Nima. It's such a big deal as soon as it is shot, 2,500 pairs of chain mail, what else is there?

An hour later, all five boats were loaded, and there was a lot of strength. Looking at the hill like goods, everyone felt very dreamy, and Huanglong, who heard the news, was about to dance happily. The ears and nose of this thing have been cut off by the rebels, and dancing must not scare people to death.

Five thousand ash rods with three leng bayonets, and the rest were dry food. Packed in a cardboard box, a small cloth bag one by one, no bag in ten nests, the raw materials used are more cheating. Corn flour, sorghum flour, fish meal, sweet potato flour, add a little salt, steam in the pot, and bake in the oven to dry. It's hard enough to be stoned, but it tastes good. When eating, soak it in hot water, and if there is no hot water, soak it in cold water.

Just such a broken thing, in the minds of the soldiers on Lushun's side, this is righteousness to the point where there is nothing to say. You must know that the soldiers here are full of food. Three boats, all of which were 100 feeds, were all dry food produced by this underground food factory. This is prepared for those rogues in the future, now try it on Lushun's side, will it eat the dead. Even if he eats the dead, Chen Xie will not admit it. No one is going to settle this account on him, it's a life-saving thing.

"Mr. Huang is also here, before I came, the chief soldier of our family said that they are all his own brothers, and the inventory of chain mail is a little less, so I can only take out so much first. The rest, in the future, I guarantee that the brothers will have it. Wang Qinian appeared in time, and the men who bled on the battlefield without frowning were all excited, and Shang Keyi directly hugged a pair of chain mail and cried loudly. (To be continued......)
