Chapter 1438: Raid on Luermen (3)
On the port of Luermen, the warships on the sea are getting closer and closer, Deng Xiong's offensive is getting more and more fierce, Matheson is already going crazy, and the gunfire in the distance has been heard, indicating that now the reinforcements have also encountered resistance, and now they can only rely on their own support, but, how to support it, even if they can resist the attack of the Ming army in front of them, when the Ming army's fleet rushes up, they will still be defeated and die, and there will be no bones!
"Fleet, by the way, we still have a fleet!"
Matheson suddenly woke up, in the depths of the harbor, he still has a few warships, although in front of the Ming fleet, this small fleet is also a drop in the bucket, but it is better than nothing!
"Quick, immediately inform Ruiz, pull out all the fleets, and prevent the Ming fleet from landing on the shore, once the Ming fleet is washed up in the port, then they will be dumplings, damn it, why don't these battleships leave the station!"
Matheson shouted angrily.
Someone rushed to the bottom of the harbor and began to give orders to Ruiz.
Ruiz is having a headache now, resisting the fleet of the Ming Dynasty? What's more, don't talk about your own small broken ships, even if all the warships of the East India Company are pulled up, I'm afraid it's not anyone's opponent, fight? I didn't have enough to stuff the teeth of the Ming fleet; Don't fight? Once the Ming fleet lands and blockades the entire harbor, then all of your own people will be finished, not only your own people, but also all the Dutch in the entire Yizhou will die without a place to be buried!
Seeing that the fleet of the Ming army has pounced, fight! You can't fight if you want to, you can die in battle, you can't be scared to death, right?
Ruiz gritted his teeth and gave the order to attack, and the five battleships of the Dutch fleet came out from the depths of the harbor and began to attack the Ming warships, and waves of shells flew towards the Ming warships, stopping the advance of the Ming fleet!
"Dog!"
Zheng Caichong's battleship at the front was less than three miles away from the harbor dock, and was blocked by the Dutch warships, although the Ming army's fleet was only a few warships, but the second fleet could not ignore the people who launched attacks one after another, and if a wave of artillery attacks concentrated the battleships of the second fleet in the front, it was enough for the battleships of the second fleet to drink a pot, not to mention that the battleships were carrying a large number of soldiers now, and the battleships behind even carried a large number of artillery ammunition, once hit, the consequences were unimaginable!
"Order, the left flank battalion will attack, and give me the shortest possible time to encircle and destroy these small shrimps!"
The left flank battalion, under the command of Zheng Cai, began to surround up, sandwiched several of Ruiz's warships in the middle, and began to surround and fight!
Ruiz knows that he can't beat others, but if he can't beat him, he has to fight hard, and if he can hold on for a moment, as long as Geranza's reinforcements arrive, he can still turn the tide of the battle, and now it's up to him to see who collapses first!
The sea was also caught in a melee, in the distance, Dong Tianlai, who was blocking the Dutch reinforcements, was caught in a bitter battle, if it was only eight hundred Dutch soldiers, he would be able to hold on, he only needed to block, resist step by step, delay the pace of the Dutch reinforcements, but at this time, he was already desperate, for fear that the eight hundred troops would not be able to repel the attacking Ming army.
After sending 800 troops, 1,000 troops were mobilized again to rush to the aid of the Luermen Fort, and the troops of the city of Geranza almost poured out.
Now where can Dong Tianlai still support the all-out assault of 1,800 troops?
Even if the soldiers of the special operations battalion have three heads and six arms, they can't cope with it at this time.
"Wiped it, why, why can't the boss take the fort?"
Dong Tianlai was angry and anxious, but now Mathesen is also desperate, even if there are less than 100 people, he still holds the last position on the fort, fighting to the death without retreating, there is no way to retreat, Masisen has no retreat at all, where can he not fight hard?
However, when Dong Tianlai was in a hurry, in the southeast direction, a rumbling cannon suddenly sounded!
Five or six miles away, there was a rumbling cannon, and one shell after another went straight towards the Dutch reinforcements who were assaulting, and landed in the queue of the Dutch reinforcements, instantly setting off a huge explosion, and in the blink of an eye, the Dutch reinforcements were full of ghosts crying wolf howls!
This is、This is our reinforcements have arrived, and it must be Lord Shu with the army!
Dong Tianlai was overjoyed, just listening to the sound of the cannonball, he could judge that this was the artillery of the Tianxiong Army, Shu Xinchen was behind with an artillery battalion and an infantryman, he didn't expect to rush up so quickly!
After Deng Xiong led the army north, Shu Xinchen took two Dutch ships and soon arrived at Canglongkou, and after landing, he rushed towards the direction of Luermen Fort without stopping.
Shu Xinchen moved more than half an hour later than Deng Xiong, and he carried artillery, so his speed naturally could not be compared with that of the special operations battalion, and it was only after arriving more than an hour later that he arrived at a position almost ten miles away from the fort, and in three hours, he drove out a distance of twenty miles.
Shu Xinchen was anxious all the way for fear of missing the big battle, desperately rushed forward, and finally caught up, far away, Shu Xinchen sensed the battle ahead, and immediately ordered the artillery to stop advancing, and launched an artillery bombardment towards the Dutch reinforcements in front, an artillery battalion, only eight artillery, but even if it was only eight artillery, the pressure on the Dutch reinforcements was huge, and he was thinking about galloping to the fort, not a single artillery was carried, all of them were advancing lightly, and now he suffered a big loss!
An artillery spell beat the Dutch reinforcements to the ground, and by the time the Dutch reinforcements came to their senses, the infantry battalion under Shu Xinchen had come to Dong Tianlai's approach, at this time, there were only twenty or thirty people left under Dong Tianlai, and all the rest were sacrificed here.
"Grandma's!"
Shu Xinchen scolded fiercely: "That bastard really drove out the blood, sent so many troops in one breath, ordered, all the strength to block, all the strength to block, I must nail them here, just hold on for half an hour, our army will board the fort, and when the time comes, it will be the end of the Dutch devils!" ”
Shu Xinchen was right, it didn't take half an hour, just a quarter of an hour, on the fort, Deng Xiong completely annihilated Matheson's Dutch garrison, all the Dutch were either killed or captured, and it was completely finished, the special operations battalion that controlled the fort turned its guns, aimed at the Dutch battleships on the sea, and began the shelling!
Shells fell on the Dutch battleships, flanked in front and back, and the hapless Dutch fleet was completely wiped out of this world!
