Chapter 1209: Bloody Battle of the Hirado Domain (7)

As soon as the battle was fought, Matsudaira Nobutsuna's fleet suffered a loss, the artillery of the Ming Navy was too powerful, and the power was huge, it was not at all comparable to the Franco machine gun of the Dongying Water Division, and his own shells hit others and tickled, but when people hit them, it was a hard slap, and the teeth were all gone!

Matsudaira Nobutsuna gritted his teeth angrily, it was all Tagawa Nanazaemon who caused trouble, just a large battalion of the Ming Navy fleet, it was so powerful, there were at least three such battalions in the back, if you really want to rush up, your fleet will definitely not be able to parry! This damn Tagawa!

However, it's too late to say anything now, everyone has already come to the door, even if you want to clean up the Tagawa Nanazaemon Gate, you have to repel the Ming Navy fleet first!

Of course, this is only the beginning, Matsudaira Nobutsuna suffered a big loss, once Dongying's fleet became serious, it was not without the ability to parry, after all, on this sea, there were sixty or seventy Japanese warships, even if the combat power was average, but there were more ants and could bite the elephant to death, right?

Matsudaira Nobutsuna kept calling the command, and the Toei fleet and the right wing battalion were entangled to death, and the artillery fire between the two sides became more and more intense.

However, it didn't take long, the left wing battalion and the Chinese army battalion also pounced on it and joined the battle group, obviously, Matsudaira Nobutsuna's fleet could not support it, the number of warships was not less than his own, but the size was much bigger than his own, his biggest handsome ship, but just the size of the ordinary main battleship of others, the battleship that was bigger than his handsome ship, at least thirty or forty ships, as for the artillery, not to mention, the Ming fleet artillery is many and large, the range is still long, and it can explode, In addition to artillery, there are also special rockets for arson, and the officers and men of the Dongying fleet have been beaten stupid!

Matsudaira Nobutsuna kept complaining, he had been to Fujian at the beginning, and he had personally seen Zheng Zhilong's Fujian sailors, although the power was strong, but it was far less powerful than the Ming Empire Navy in front of him, this gap was too big, and the Dongying fleet had no hope of winning at all!

If the Zheng family sailors on Hirado Island don't come out to help in the war, then this time, their navy is really dangerous, and it will be impossible to escape!

Fortunately, Zheng Cai in the bay of Hirado Island is not stupid, and now that reinforcements are coming from outside, if he doesn't grasp the opportunity, he will be really stupid!

"Order the fort, launch an attack with all your might, and press all the ships that can participate in the battle! Flank the Ming Army! ”

Zheng Cai roared wildly.

Although the Zheng family's warships suffered a lot of losses after a big battle, their combat strength still existed, and under the cover of two batteries, they approached the front army camp.

Relying only on a large battalion of the former army, if you want to withstand the attack of more than 20 heavy guns and dozens of main warships of the battery, it is indeed a little difficult for the front army camp of the Ming naval fleet.

Zheng Cai pulled out his fleet, and really forgot that the Ming Navy came not only with these warships, but also from the amphibious battalion and the Tianxiong Army.

At this time, the forces of the special operations battalion had already landed on Fukushima under the cover of the rear army battalion, and the amphibious combat battalion did not stop at all, and launched a forced landing directly in the direction of Hirado Island!

More than a dozen warships covered the two troop carriers, and the amphibious combat battalion directly killed them, and the guns of the battleships continued to bombard the batteries on Hirado Island, suppressing the possible resistance from the batteries.

The two islands are only more than ten miles apart, and in just a moment, the amphibious combat battalion has already rushed to the vicinity of Hirado Island, and immediately began to rush to the beach!

This time, not only two amphibious battalions were used, but six amphibious battalions, 3,000 troops, and all flintlock muskets were used on the beach, densely packed, forming an assault formation, like a sea tide, rushing to the direction of the fort.

The Zheng army on Hirado Island was all panicked, so many Ming troops, all of them were equipped with muskets, what use could the swords, guns, bows and arrows in their hands be for? Just rush up to the decisive battle? Just kidding, before I rushed to the front of the people, I was dead, look at the battle of Fukushima just now, how badly the muskets of the people were beaten to know the end of their charge.

Artillery, fortunately, and artillery!

Almost at the same time, the two batteries on Hirado Island began to shift the direction of attack, and the artillery began to move, aiming in the direction of the amphibious battalion, however, the heavy artillery on Hirado Island were all red-coated cannons of more than 3,000 catties, which were extremely heavy, and it was not so easy to turn the direction, especially some artillery batteries did not have gun mounts, and were completely fixed on the batteries, and they could not be moved, and the two batteries could only mobilize more than ten artillery pieces to participate in the blockade.

Boom Boom Boom ......

There was a cannon fire from the battery, and shells began to fire at the amphibious battalion.

However, the officers and men of the amphibious battalion are not frightened, they have experienced a hundred battles, and they have long been familiar with the threat of artillery, and they have enough experience in dodging the attack of artillery.

What's more, between the two islands, there are more than ten warships, and the battleships of the rear army battalion are now all engaged in the battle, and the shells are fired at the battery, setting off wave after wave of explosions on the battery, and the entire battery has been shrouded in gunsmoke.

Charge!

The soldiers of the amphibious battalion crossed the beach and began to launch a ferocious assault on the battery, howling and rushing forward! Straight to the fort!

"Shoot the arrow, release the arrow! Musketeers, all press on Lao Tzu! ”

The partial general Zheng Lan kept roaring, commanding a small number of musketeers to start relying on the mountains, rocks and trees to launch a blockade against the Ming army, as for the soldiers who did not have muskets, they could only use bows and arrows, and waves of bows and arrows shot down from top to bottom, desperately blocking them.

However, no matter how stubborn the resistance is, it can't stop the determination of the amphibious battalion soldiers to take the fort, the 3,000 soldiers are divided into two, attacking two batteries at the same time, leaving no back road at all, it is a strong attack, even if the casualties are large, the fort must be taken! These two batteries are too much of a threat to the fleet!

Zheng Cai, who was entangled with the Ming fleet, was commanding the big battle, when suddenly the deputy general next to him shouted: "My lord, my lord, look, the fort, our fort on Hirado Island has fallen into the siege of the Ming army!" ”
