5-38 Red Fortress

The purpose of the Song and Song armies was to capture the Jiangyin garrison, Sun Ren and then seize it, take it as a hostage, seize the Jiangyin fortress, and then cut off the Yangtze River waterway, causing the confrontation between the Ming court and the Song Dynasty, at this moment, they were running to Sun Ren's warship on a boat, and the warship was trapped in the middle of the river and could not move at all, Sun Ren ordered the crossbow on the fortress to shoot and cover on the other, and fled for his life under the escort of his own soldiers.

Jiangyin Fortress is one of several important river defense fortresses on the Yangtze River, equipped with dozens of large steam crossbows purchased from the Liguo Iron Works, this kind of crossbow is the crossbow arrows used in the river defense, the iron rod sharp edge also has the thing to ignite, it is a sharp weapon to hit the ship, but the crossbow needs to be driven by steam, this furnace is not boiled at all, where is the steam coming from, there is enough steam, they do not dare to fire, now the river is full of boats, the soldiers on the fortress do not dare to cast the repeater at will, such a wave of arrow rain down, how many ships sink to the bottom, the boat of the little people sinks, but the shipwreck blocks the waterway, who dares to bear the responsibility, who can bear it。

After a little hesitation, the soldiers killed and cut off Sun Ren's way to withdraw to the fortress, and the deputy general saw that Sun was trapped, and hurriedly asked the soldiers to shoot with ordinary bows and crossbows to cover the Yangtze River waterway, so wide that ordinary manpower bows and arrows were difficult to threaten the soldiers, seeing that they were about to capture Sun Ren, suddenly several inconspicuous boats suddenly lifted the tarpaulin, jumped out of it, and the armed soldiers caught the soldiers off guard.

These ships arrived later, and it was a bit unexpected that the soldiers who were hiding in the cabins were killed, relying on their small size and squandering like loaches.

Although the combat effectiveness is not very strong, but after all, it is a new force, which is much stronger than the soldiers who have been in the cabin for three days and three nights.

Wen Getao brandished a serrated knife and rushed to the front, the blade of this steel knife slashed people with a row of staggered serrations, and even cut the band saw, which was a little sharper than the ordinary steel knife, and those thin soldiers were stopped in front of him, but as soon as they were together, they were stopped and cut into two sections, and the blood flew sideways, and the heads of people were rolling around, and for a while, the Ming army was full of momentum.

The fighting spirit of the Song Youth Army Association was indeed admirable, and the young officers took the lead in charging ahead, relying on the numerical superiority to gradually suppress the officers and men of the sailor division, and the goods transported by the boats were complicated.

It also became a weapon of war, bags of soybeans were sprinkled on the board of the ship, and the Ming army wearing shoes slipped frequently, but the barefoot soldiers were not affected, and took the opportunity to kill and injure a large number of Ming troops.

The pigs were transported out of the cages and running around the boat, making a mess. There were only more than 30 soldiers around Sun Ren, and he was cut down by the brigade Song soldiers in a moment, and the garrison adults tied their hands, and the soldiers took him as a hostage to coerce the Ming army to lay down their weapons, who knew that this Ming army was not a soldier of Jiangyin Fortress, and he didn't care about Sun Ren's life or death, and he still fought endlessly.

At the critical moment, Wen Jun personally went into battle, led an elite team of personal soldiers to resist Wen Getao, and the rest of the soldiers took the opportunity to kill the Ming army in one go.

Although Wen Getao was brave, it was difficult to recover the defeat with his own strength, and after rushing left and right, there was no soldier left around him, and he was also stabbed several times and bled incessantly.

Facing the siege of more than a dozen masters, Wen Getao turned around and jumped into the water, disappearing into the narrow gap between the boats.

There are not many thousand men and horses left with Wen Getao, these people can only fight with the wind, and after the previous sharp energy is consumed, there will be no morale, and their chances of escaping are far stronger than the ability to fight, and they stabbed into the Yangtze River and escaped.

The ships blocked on the Yangtze River will also disperse, whether it is from the east or west, the ships are frightened to return the same way, trapped in the center of the river, closely between the boats, flashed a huge gap, the steam boiler of the Jiangyin fortress has been on fire, the defenders of the fortress saw that the soldiers were about to attack them, had to use the steam crossbow, the powerful crossbow arrows tore the soldiers wearing life jackets into orange-red pieces, several boats were leaking arrows and sank to the bottom of the river, the soldiers rushed to the fortress under the command of the officer, ignoring the crossbow arrows fired at the oncoming one, an officer held a sword and shouted: "The Green Army will charge!" In the blink of an eye, he was shot through by a giant crossbow, and everyone became minced meat, and the sword in his hand was still pointing at Jiangyin Fortress.

The fanaticism of the Qingjun will and the ignorance of the soldiers constitute the best combination of battles, they quickly formed a combat group, rushed to the river on the boat, and directly climbed the steep wall of the fortress, these natives climbed the kung fu with bare hands, such as walking on the ground, there is no need for ropes, ladders, the soldiers on the fortress are deserted for a long time, the accuracy of the bow and arrow is very poor, coupled with the cover of the soldiers on the water, the upward shooting is not like the same combat effectiveness, Rao is so, the casualties caused to the soldiers are still huge, the river cliff has been dyed with blood, the corpses of the soldiers are floating on the water, the brake is amazing, Wen Jun personally came to the front line, hiding in the dead corner of the shooting, commanding the battle, under his supervision, the soldiers finally boarded the fortress, the city head of the short handAfter the battle, the city fell, the Tibetan soldiers 6 continued to climb the fortress, countless soft ladders were thrown down, more brigade Song troops boarded the fortress, and finally the clear character banner fell, a blue brigade Song army flag was firmly planted at the highest point of the fortress.

Wen Jun also boarded the Jiangyin fortress surrounded by all the generals, his first order was to sink all the river boats, blocking the Yangtze River waterway, and the crossbowmen who did not have time to escape under the threat of swords shot rockets at the ownerless ships in the river, those shipowners were killed, and the unmanned ships became the best targets, and the cloth and food loaded were all things that were easy to ignite, under the blow of the rockets, the Yangtze River suddenly ignited a group of flames, looking at the ships that gradually sank to the bottom of the water, the officers of the Youth Army Association cheered, Wen Jun sighed softly, because he knew that the most difficult enemy was coming。

Liu Ziguang personally led the airship troops to come, standing in the airship cabin and looking at the land, only to see that the land south of the Yangtze River is beautiful, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the fertile soil is beautiful, the villages and ruins are connected, the shore is crossed, the willows are crossed, the people here have not been poisoned by the war for a long time, so they have formed a rich and fat land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River, this is the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, the granary of the Han people, Wen Jun tried to burn the war to the south of the Yangtze River, which Liu Ziguang could not tolerate。

The airship went west along the Yangtze River, and there were still dozens of miles away from Jiangyin, when I saw puffs of smoke rising into the air

"Wen Getao, they have already lost." Liu Ziguang put down the clairvoyant mirror and said.

"Yes." The one who drove the airship next to him was Kori Dubu, this Rakshasa man didn't say much, he just liked to say yes or no, Liu Ziguang saw that no one answered him, so he didn't say much, in fact, everyone understood that Wen Getao's department was just cannon fodder, if they could entangle Wen Jun's men and horses, it was best if they couldn't be entangled and annihilated by them, then there was no pity, anyway, they were not reliable troops, and they were all gone.

"Get ready for battle. The Jiangyin fortress also fell. Liu Ziguang had already seen the brigade Song Lanqi fluttering at the head of the fortress through the clairvoyant mirror, but he didn't expect Wen Jun's troops to be so strong in combat and completely different from the performance on the streets of Shanghai a few days ago, it was clearly two troops.

The power parachute on the airship was the first to be released to carry out the first round of strike missions, and two quarters of an hour later, the Jiangyin fortress in the distance also rose with thick smoke, and according to the report of the parachute returning from the bomb, the Jiangyin fortress had indeed been occupied by the Song army, and now they were blocking the Yangtze River with the fortress's crossbows.

The small bombs on the parafoil alone could not cause serious damage to the fortress, and Liu Ziguang decided to let the airship drive over and bombard the fortress with heavy bombs.

Jiangyin fortress is facing collapse, just occupied the fortress was attacked by more than a dozen power parachute bombs, although the small bomb did not kill a few people, but ignited some wooden buildings, and caused a great psychological blow to the native soldiers, these soldiers who grew up in the Nanyang jungle are not afraid of death and bloodshed, but they are very afraid of things that are out of their psychological capacity, so that they lose their combat effectiveness, and they are frightened one by one, holding their heads and running around.

When the huge airship came to the sky above the Jiangyin fortress, the fear of the soldiers reached its peak, knelt on the ground and worshipped, and chanted words in their mouths, and they couldn't get up even if the officers beat and scolded. The officers of the Youth Army Association used their bows and crossbows to shoot at the airship that was high above, but the arrows fired from the back could not reach that height, and the steam crossbow of the fortress had this range, but even the crossbow was fixed in the castle, facing the side of the Yangtze River, and could not shoot at all in the air, and the arrows that were sparse and pulled could not even be stained with the hair of the airship, as if in response, the bomb pylons under the airship began to move, and one by one heavy bombs pulled a long whistle and fell among the natives, and the cylindrical bombs riveted with iron sheets were stuffed with full of explosives and iron nails, and the huge lethality was shocking, first the bombs fell to the ground and smashed people into the flesh and blood, and then the air wave of the explosion lifted the soldiers into the airThe fragments of the leather shell and the iron nails inside beat the human body in the air to a thousand holes, and the entire fortress instantly turned into a terrifying hell for people.

After a round of blows, the Jiangyin fortress had turned into a red fortress, stained red by the flesh and blood of the soldiers.
