Soon, the Ming fleet came to a place only three miles away from the dock, and then forward, the fleet was about to prepare to anchor, and the merchant ships in the harbor were intertwined, and at least hundreds of merchant ships docked on the dock.

"Okay, Du Xin, immediately give the order, list the horizontal formation, attack with the side guns, open fire in an all-round way, give me concentrated firepower, bombard the two batteries on both sides of Edo Castle, and give me their batteries first!"

As soon as the bolt came up, he found a good target, and locked the target of the attack on the two batteries, now the main force of the Dongying fleet is not there, on Edo Bay, at most there are a little patrol small warships, the largest is only two or three hundred in size, in front of the Ming giant ship, this is the gap between the tiger and the mouse, don't care at all, now the only thing that can threaten the Ming fleet is the two batteries on the shore, even if the number of artillery is not much, once a large number of battleships are hit, it is enough to sink the battleship.

What is the purpose of the investigation, not to launch a surprise attack and destroy all the artillery on the battery in one go?

At the sound of the order, the warships of the former army battalion and the middle army battalion, together with more than sixty ships, sent two horizontal columns on the sea surface of Edo Bay, and all the side guns were already lit up, and one shell after another was quickly stuffed into the chamber......

Boom Boom Boom Boom ......

Almost at the same time, nearly 600 guns of the thirty warships of the first column were fired at the same time, and they flew towards the two batteries on Edo Bay!

On the Edo Battery, the actions of the Ming fleet have attracted the attention of the officers and men of the battery, I don't know why, this time the Dutch actually sent so many warships at once, what are the Dutch doing? On weekdays, the Dutch fleet visits Toei, at most only a dozen warships, where is now, sixty warships are mobilized in one go, such a fleet size is enough to blockade the entire Edo Bay and even the coast of Honshu Island!

To go to war? Impossible, if Dongying is still friendly with any country, then there is only the Netherlands, and even the relationship between the Dutch has exceeded the relationship with the Ming Empire, the Dutch are the only country allowed by the Tokugawa shogunate to trade in Dongying, and the Ming Dynasty does not have this treatment, they have nothing to do with the eggs, and they come to Dongying to invade, unless the brain is in water.

When the officers and men on the battery were confused, suddenly the fleet on the sea began to line up, and the two horizontal groups quickly put themselves in formation, the battleships hit horizontally, and the muzzle of a side gun was already aimed at Edo Port, and it was possible to launch an attack on Edo Port at any time!

"Yaga! Are these Dutchmen crazy? Really want to attack Edo? Hurry, hurry! Send a message to the Tokugawa shogun immediately! The order is given, the battery has entered a state of emergency combat readiness and is ready to fight! ”

Nishiemon, the general on the fort, shouted urgently.

As soon as the words fell, and even before the messenger had left the battery, the cannon of the opposite fleet had already rumbled, shaking the sky!

Hundreds of shells flew through the air and flew towards the battery like lightning!

Nishiemon's eyes widened!

"No, no!"

Nishiemon seemed to have fallen into an ice cave in an instant, cold from head to foot, it was terrifying, hundreds of shells, as soon as they came up, hundreds of artillery pieces attacked together!

However, it was too late now, and one shell after another smashed accurately on the fort, setting off a violent explosion on the fort, and in an instant, the rubble flew wildly, the flames rose into the air, and the smoke of gunpowder enveloped the two forts tightly!

The people of Toei were not prepared at all, and they did not expect that Edo, the capital of Toei, would be attacked by a powerful fleet!

On the two forts, more than 30 artillery pieces are deployed, two artillery battalions and two infantry battalions are stationed, and more than 3,000 troops, but these people have no precautions at all, on the forts, a group of three, a group of five, are idle and bored, suddenly, dense shells smashed down, and the violent explosion directly took the lives of nearly 100 people, it was so miserable, the most unlucky one had even been directly hit by the shells, blown into minced meat, even if his own mother boarded the battery, he would never recognize it.

"Quick, quick, shoot back, fight back! The order was given, and the artillery battalion immediately responded to the battle! ”

Nishiemon was full of guts and roared hysterically.

The artillerymen on the fort were scurrying around in panic one by one, wanting to fight, where was it so easy? We still have to remove the gun jackets, we have to carry the shells, and even many soldiers have left the batteries because there is no fighting, so in a hurry, where can we immediately return fire?

The Dongying soldiers on the fort had not yet recovered from their shock and fear, and another wave of shells had arrived!

The thirty warships in the second column also fired at the same time with hundreds of guns, and the time interval between the two fleets firing artillery was less than two minutes! Hundreds of shells fell from the sky and smashed on the fort, this time it was not only Dongying's soldiers, but even several artillery pieces were hit by the unlucky head-on, and they were directly blown up beyond recognition and directly scrapped.

In just two rounds of attacks, the two batteries in Edo Bay have been paralyzed, not that the artillery has been completely destroyed, but on the batteries, the will to fight of the soldiers of Toei has been directly destroyed.

In just three minutes, more than 1,000 shells were concentrated on the two batteries, almost indiscriminately attacking the batteries, these soldiers were directly circled, and in the explosion of the shells, they kept crying and howling. The artillerymen were already frightened.

On the handsome boat, Cha Xuan looked up to the sky and laughed, shouting: "Du Xin, herald, just hit Lao Tzu like this, and then come to a few waves of attacks, an hour, give me an hour to bombard him!" ”

Du Xin hurriedly ordered the sentry to shake the herald flag, conveying the order on the handsome ship.

Bombardment for an hour, even if the speed of the shelling slows down by half, it is enough to fire tens of thousands of shells, or even 20,000 shells is not impossible!

From the beginning, to the end of the shelling, the Dongying Battery, which was completely blinded, did not even have a decent counterattack, on the battery, the artillery and infantry suffered heavy casualties, and the artillery was directly destroyed more than half, and even the merchant ships on Edo Bay suffered from the pond fish, even if there were no shells fired at them, these merchant ships were already frightened crazy, frantically fleeing towards the sea off Edo Bay, in a hurry, countless merchant ships collided together!

It's over, it's over!

These Dutchmen are a bunch of dog-day white-eyed wolves!

Nishiemon is now crying without tears, suddenly, Nishiemon wiped his eyes, picked up his clairvoyance again and looked at the battleship in the distance, no, no, it's not the Dutch, the soldiers on the battleship are all Daming's attire, Daming and the Dutchman's outfit is too surprised, the flag can be camouflaged, and the appearance of the person can't be changed!

Amaterasu, it's the fleet of the Ming Empire!
