Chapter 1439: How to Fight This Battle?

Originally, the small fleet of the Netherlands could not withstand the strong siege of the large battalion on the left flank of the Second Fleet, and now the artillery on the battery is also hitting the Dutch ships, where can the Dutch ships still be able to support it? In an instant, all of them were destroyed and sunk, and without the blocking of the Dutch ships, the troop carriers of the Second Fleet rushed over quickly and began to carry out the landing.

In the distance, Yu Yi is now completely desperate, I didn't expect that the fort only lasted less than two days before it was taken by the Ming army, so how many days can the Geranza and Chichicheng in the back last? Now that the Ming infantry has begun to land on a large scale, their own reinforcements are in no danger here, and the most important thing is that they are not carrying heavy artillery weapons.

"Order, the army immediately withdraws to the city of Geranza, quickly! Redeploy the defenses, damn it, how the hell did the Ming army complete the landing? What the hell is going on? Did both warships in the southeast go for dry meals? ”

The anger is like thunder, but at this time, what is the use of losing your temper? It's too late. Now the fort has fallen into the hands of the Ming army, and he did not carry artillery, just with more than a thousand people, it is like snatching back the fort from the hands of the Ming army, it is simply impossible, not to mention that the Ming army on the shore is strong, and the fleet on the sea is not given in vain, as long as people drive the battleship to Luermen Bay, the artillery can directly cross the fort and attack the Dutch army behind the fort, how to fight? Don't say too much, even if it is besieged by a dozen warships, your own reinforcements will not be able to withstand it......

He led the reinforcements and hastily withdrew to the city of Geranza.

On the fort, a team of Tianxiong troops drove up the dock, behind them is a flowering cannon, from the morning to noon the next day, the Tianxiong army completed the landing, Qin Mufeng personally led the army to board the Luermen dock, under the command of the entire town and a half of troops, up to 30,000 people, alone artillery carried eighty guns, but there are a lot of elite generals.

Tan Guilin personally led the first town of the Tianxiong Army to come.

"Guilin, this battle is for you to fight, what are you going to do?"

Qin Mufeng asked towards Tan Guilin.

Tan Guilin said in a deep voice: "Master Governor, if I command this battle, then I will break it one by one, send all my troops to besiege the nearest city of Geranza, take the city of Geranza in the shortest possible time with a strong firepower advantage, and then concentrate the forces to attack the city of Chichi, the two fortresses are well defended, and there are a lot of artillery, if we divide the troops against the enemy, it will be very unfavorable to us, break them one by one, one city of Geranza, I think, they can't stop our attack in six days!" ”

Qin Mufeng nodded and said with a smile: "Indeed, all of our eighty artillery pieces are put into battle, storming a city, not to mention six days, at most four days, we will be able to break through the walls of Gelansha City, however, if we attack like this, we will definitely turn around and run away if we can't bear the pressure, and then transfer all our troops back to Chichi City, and then defend Chi Chi City, when the time comes, there are thousands of troops in Chi Chi City, plus the number of artillery pieces is nearly 100, and even has the strength that is not weaker than ours, what should you do?" ”

Tan Guilin's face turned red, what Qin Mufeng said was that he would attack Gelanza with all his might, and it would not be difficult to take Gelanza, but if the Dutch army retreated to the Red Embedded City, at that time, the Red Embedded City would be difficult to fight, and the strong defense, coupled with the number of artillery groups that were not weaker than their own, even if they could take the Red Embedded City, it would bring huge casualties to the Tianxiong Army.

"Master Overseer, what do you think?"

Tan Guilin asked.

Qin Mufeng didn't answer Tan Guilin, and then said: "The Dutch army is not the Dongying army, the Dongying army has not experienced a decent war for many years, it's okay to make a small fight, there is occasionally a famous general, with outstanding ability, but most of them are mediocre; But the Dutch have been in a state of war, I heard, for a hundred years, the war has not been interrupted, maybe their commander is not a famous general, but his soldiers have a set of abilities, just look at Deng Xiong's raid on the battery, two batteries, but five or six hundred Dutch soldiers, and one-third of them are artillery, they can withstand the attack of our special operations battalion for nearly two hours, not simple, not simple, their military quality is not low, don't underestimate the opponent in front of us! Even, if shrewd enough, we can choose to go out of the city to fight, gather all the artillery, choose a dangerous terrain, and fight a decisive battle with us, and at that time, we may even find ourselves in a dilemma! ”

Qin Mufeng's inference is not unreasonable, if you only rely on the city walls of Chichicheng and Geranza to confront the Ming army, then the artillery of the Dutch army is scattered on the city walls, and nearly a hundred artillery pieces cannot exert the greatest power, although the fortified city is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the offensive ability of the Dutch army is greatly reduced; However, once you choose a dangerous high point, close to Geranza or Chichicheng, and concentrate your forces for defense, the Tianxiong army will encounter a difficult bone to gnaw, nearly a hundred artillery, and the strength is not even under the artillery of the Tianxiong army, even if the Tianxiong army is outnumbered, it will not be easy to take down the opponent.

When Tan Guilin heard this, his face changed suddenly, and he hesitated: "No, Master Inspector, you said that you will take the initiative to go out of the city and have a decisive battle with us?" ”

Qin Mufeng nodded and said: "There is this possibility, if it were me, I would definitely choose this tactic, the layout has been started since the day before yesterday, the Red Embedded City and the Gelansha are less than ten miles apart, if you choose a high point that is not far from the two cities to arm, hoard grain and grass, defend the high point, with the help of artillery, in the short term, we have no possibility of defeating the Dutch army at all, unless we transfer the entire Tianxiong army, hope, now we can only hope that the Dutch army is not so smart." ”

Qin Mufeng has this worry in his heart, but it is not impossible to solve it, you must know that Qin Mufeng is not afraid of field battles, in the field battle, he has never lost it, a wide range of movement operations, rushing, dividing, encircling, charging formations, any form of field warfare, Qin Mufeng knows everything about it, and is extremely proficient, not to mention that Qin Mufeng still has the trump card power of the special combat battalion in his hands, crossing mountains and mountains, as if walking on the ground, but once he does this, it will create considerable trouble for the Tianxiong Army.

"Master Overseer, Master Overseer!"

Xiao Fei, a guerrilla in the scout camp in the distance, hurriedly ran up and said urgently: "Lord Cavalry Supervisor, our scouts have reported that the Dutch army led by Yu Yi has begun to withdraw from the city of Gelanza, and it seems that they are going to withdraw to the Red Embedded City, and they plan to defend the Red Embedded City!" ”
