Chapter 579: The First World War [1 Update]
Away from the port, a group of soldiers were holding weapons at the moment, looking at the port in front of them with burning eyes, and suddenly, the air exploded, and the fireworks exploded, which was extremely eye-catching.
Yu Dayou, who was dressed in military uniform, saw the explosive fireworks in the air, and his eyes suddenly lit up, and when he broke off, he pulled out his long knife and yelled: "Sons, kill with me!" ”
Although after a day of running, non-stop rushing, even the most elite soldiers are very tired, Yu Dayou behind thousands of people rushed from the capital to Tianjin Port, the speed is definitely very fast.
It took less than a day from Yang Yiqing to dispatch people and horses to Yu Dayou to lead the men and horses to Tianjin Port, although it was not long after arriving at Tianjin Port, but Yu Dayou and the soldiers he brought did not mean to rest, even if he was tired, but at this time he saw the fireworks that exploded in the air, and the originally tired soldiers rushed to the port one by one as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.
Thousands of people poured into the port like a torrent, countless torches lit up the night sky, and among the crowd, Dong Ke also took the lead, not lagging behind Yu Dayou at all, looking at the posture quite a bit of a contest with Yu Dayou.
As the garrison of Tianjin, Dong Ke's official position is even higher than that of Yu Dayoulai, but Yu Dayou is from Beijing, especially as a pioneer officer, which should not be underestimated.
In addition, Yu Dayou's name is widely spread in the army, and he is already one of the representatives of the new generation in the army, so it can be said that the future future will not be worse than Dong Ke, and even go further than Dong Ke.
Here Daming gathered as many as five or six thousand men and horses, taking advantage of the night, rushing into the port with torches.
In the harbor, although the coalition forces that had finally repelled the attack of the Ming Dynasty during the day were said to be vigilant enough, from Governor George to Earl Harry and even the middle and lower level officers, they did not expect that the Ming side was unwilling to wait even one night, and even regardless of the fatigue of the reinforcements, they directly launched an offensive at night.
Thousands of soldiers shouted and slaughtered into the port, this movement was too big, in the port, almost all the coalition troops were alarmed at the first time, I don't know how many coalition soldiers looked at the shore with a frightened face, but there were countless torches in their eyes, at first glance it seemed like a fire dragon spreading towards them.
The disheveled Earl Harry had just fallen asleep for a short time, after all, he was too tired from a fight during the day, and he was awakened by a burst of shouts before he could fall asleep.
Running out of the cabin, Earl Harry stood on the deck and looked at the rapidly approaching torches in the distance.
Judging by the experience of Earl Harry, just looking at the endless and overwhelming countless torches in his sight, I am afraid that the number of people attacking this time will be no less than thousands.
If it is said that there are three or two thousand soldiers, with the artillery fire on the battleship, it can be suppressed, so that the Ming soldiers cannot advance an inch.
However, now at least five or six thousand soldiers rushed up, and even Earl Harry was a little flustered.
"Open the cannon, fire the cannon, let me kill them!"
The panicked Earl Harry almost subconsciously shouted at the stunned soldiers.
With the first sound of cannons, the soldiers on the surrounding warships, who did not know how to deal with the current situation for a while, also came back to their senses, and under the leadership of their respective captains, they consciously bombarded the overwhelming torches in the harbor.
The sound of cannons echoed in the night sky like thunder.
The lethality of solid bullets is limited, and it is more of a psychological deterrent, but this is the dark night, even if the solid bullets can be smashed in a string, but all the soldiers who are buried in the charge can't see the scene clearly, how can they see what kind of scene will be caused by the shells smashed down.
Since the miserable scene after the solid bullet landed, it also made the hearts of the soldiers and soldiers not affected by the solid bullet.
Even if you can occasionally hear the screams of your companions around you, but in the night, even if there are torches, your vision is also greatly affected, so the impact on the morale of the military is not too great.
What's more, the combined forces of Portugal and the Netherlands were also in a hurry by this raid at this time, and many artillery pieces were too late to be used, especially the flagship where Governor George was located was quiet at this time, which made the soldiers on the Dutch side at a loss.
Being on top of the flagship, the reactions of the warships around him looked in Yue Buqun's eyes, Yue Buqun looked towards Governor George, and became more and more sure that Governor George's identity was extraordinary.
Yue Buqun stepped out and stretched out his hand to grab Governor George.
Seeing this, the knight's sword in Jill slashed over, and the sound of breaking through the air struck, Yue Buqun couldn't help but glance at Jill in surprise, and his body shook to avoid Jill's blow.
As soon as Jill made a move, he showed a very different style, but the power was quite good, Yue Buqun had never seen this kind of swordsmanship, so he was naturally happy to see the hunt, and the Huashan swordsmanship attacked Jill with one hand.
In the face of Yue Buqun's elegant swordsmanship, Jier's swordsmanship did not seem to have the slightest sense of beauty, but more of a kind of killing decisiveness, compared with Yue Buqun's swordsmanship, it was simply unsightly.
But I have to admit one thing, that is, Jill's swordsmanship is extremely powerful, even if it is as strong as Yue Buqun, he has not been able to take it down for a while.
Of course, part of the reason is that Yue Buqun is happy to hunt and wants to fight Jill and peek into the essence of his swordsmanship, so Jill can hold on to it for a while under Yue Buqun's hands.
Yue Buqun saw that Jier's swordsmanship had not changed and couldn't help but exert his strength, and immediately heard a clang, the knight's sword in Jill's hand was shocked to the ground by Yue Buqun, and the next moment Yue Buqun reached out and clicked on Jier's body a few times, sealing his acupuncture points.
Governor George obviously didn't expect that Jill would be Yue Buqun's opponent, Jill's strength was very strong, and looking at the coalition army, there was no second person to be found.
However, Jill was not able to hold out for long under Yue Buqun, and when Governor George saw that Jill was defeated, he said to Yue Buqun very cleanly: "This governor is willing to surrender!" ”
For Westerners, if it is clear that there is no hope of victory, the military can decide to surrender at their own discretion.
In the Ming Dynasty, if a general chooses to surrender to the enemy, then this is definitely the greatest shame in a general's life.
But for Westerners, surrender is not a shame, it's a normal choice.
Yue Buqun was obviously stunned by Governor George's surrender, and looked at Governor George in amazement.
Coming back to his senses, Yue Buqun couldn't help but glance at Governor George with a strange expression, although he couldn't tell why Governor George surrendered so easily, but Yue Buqun could also see that Governor George really wanted to surrender, not some kind of fraudulent surrender.
Glancing at Governor George, Yue Buqun nodded slightly, standing not far from Yue Buqun at this time, he could convey Yue Buqun's meaning with a few words of broken Portuguese.
Although Governor George was confused, he could also make up the meaning of what the other party wanted to express from some of the words of the brocade guard.
Yue Buqun asked him to order his subordinates to give up resistance, but Governor George did not do so, but looked puzzled, as if he didn't understand what the brocade guard meant.
Seeing this, Yue Buqun looked at Governor George deeply, waved his hand, and immediately saw two brocade guards step forward and tie up Governor George.
Since Governor George was unwilling to cooperate, then Chu Yi would not force the other party, anyway, in the current situation, even if Yue Buqun did not know much about military affairs, he could see that it would not be long before the Portuguese and Dutch coalition forces would be defeated.
Although it is said that it is across the water, when a group of Ming soldiers rushed into the port, there was nothing else in the port, and the most were the merchant ships one after another.
Many merchant ships, most of which had been ravaged by the coalition forces, were now greeted with a fleet of soldiers.
The merchant ships moved towards the warships above the water, and by the time the warships noticed this, the merchant ships were already less than a dozen feet away from the allied warships.
With a distance of tens of zhang, even if the coalition soldiers on these ships reacted immediately, they didn't have time to react.
If you want to shell, you naturally need to adjust the direction and the height of the muzzle, but unfortunately it is not a matter of time and a half to adjust the direction of the muzzle, I am afraid that by the time those artillerymen adjust the muzzle in place, these soldiers have already boarded the ship smoothly.
With a bang, I saw a merchant ship crashing into a battleship, whether it was a merchant ship or a battleship, the soldiers on both sides who had already prepared almost didn't care about the shaking of their bodies, and attacked at the first time.
The firearms in the hands of these coalition soldiers are very powerful, but if these firearms are used together, the effect must be very good, but now there are only a dozen of them, and some of the soldiers can't even hold the muzzle smoothly in a panic, so you can imagine what kind of impact these firearms can cause.
"Kill!"
Yu Dayou jumped up, stepped on his feet suddenly, and suddenly his body rose to the sky, turned over in the air, and then slashed a coalition soldier away.
The sword flashed, and several soldiers who subconsciously wanted to use fire guns to deal with Yu Dayou only felt a sharp pain between their waists, and the next moment blood shot out, and several soldiers were stunned by Yu Dayou.
Under the light of the fire, on the deck, several soldiers who had been cut off were howling miserably, trying to crawl on the deck, leaving a trail of blood, which looked quite terrifying.
One after another, the warships were surrounded by merchant ships from all directions, and when the Ming soldiers boarded those merchant ships, they blocked the way of these warships.
In the panic, even if a few captains subconsciously wanted to escape from the port, but there was chaos in the port, even if they wanted to turn around and get out, they couldn't do it at all, and if they were not careful, they might even capsize in the port.
