Chapter 69: A Mighty Surrender

In the Bohai Sea, when the time came for a full-scale war, the Tiandihui fleet sailed into the Bohai Strait with the momentum of a fierce tiger and launched a devastating attack on the Daqingshui Division stationed at the mouth of Arthur.

"Attention of the whole ship, the target Tartar naval division warship, flowering shells, all charges, eight rapid fire rounds of the whole ship, loading."

After the command of the commander-in-chief of the Heaven and Earth Society fleet, Fengji, was given, the flag bearer immediately sounded the flag.

The almost toned sound of the artillery commander's command rang out from all the gunboats, and they all roared, and even tears welled up in the eyes of many people.

At this moment, they waited too long, and the effect of the command given in the wind was no less than the captain's "fire" in "Wolf Warrior 2", and all the gunners of the gun position reloaded as fast as possible.

At this moment, their blood began to boil.

There are three types of artillery fire, rapid-fire, salvo-fire, and iso-rapid-fire.

The so-called rapid fire refers to completing the loading at the fastest speed, and then directly igniting the cannon, eight rapid fire, that is, you don't have to care about anything, just load and open the cannon, until the fastest speed to shoot eight shells, and then pause the action, waiting for the next instructions.

This method of shooting is mostly used in artillery battles, when artillery against artillery, if the range and accuracy of the artillery on both sides are similar in all aspects, then the fight is who fires faster, in this regard, heaven and earth will obviously crush the Tartar sailors.

The Tartar sailors of this era themselves were a rabble, and their artillery performance was far inferior to the Napoleonic guns of the Heaven and Earth Society.

Because Ao Bai has always been alive, Tang Ruowang and Nan Huairen, who cast the red-clothed cannon for Kangxi in the original play, are still in prison, and because there is no Wei Xiaobao, Shi Lang still doesn't know where to nest!

It can be said that the decision to take Wei Xiaobao to save the Zhuang family, and Yang Yifei's decision to let go of the two chess moves in the court are extremely exquisite.

In the wind, it was certain that the Tartar naval division would be defeated within half an hour, and the troops were directed at the coastal coast of Tianjin.

The salvo is easy to understand, that is, all the gun emplacements are loaded, and then the artillery is ignited and fired at the same time under the commander's command, which is mainly used to cover the artillery fire and destroy dense enemy targets, such as enemy artillery positions on the coast.

For example, when the password is "one second apart, one shot is equal to rapid fire", after the first gun position is ignited, the second gun position should be ignited again at an interval of one second, and so on.

In this way, continuous firepower can be formed, which is mainly used to bomb enemy personnel targets, and continuous bombing will cause huge psychological pressure on enemy personnel, making them panic and despair.

Once people can't keep their cool, they will run around in a panic, and in this way, they are more likely to die when the enemy uses rapid-fire fire.

The most correct way to deal with artillery bombardment is to find a good cover and lie still, leave your fate to God, and if you are unlucky, you will be blown up, and if you are lucky, you will survive.

And the mortality rate of running around is several times higher than lying in one place without moving, after all, dodging artillery fire is not dodging guns, and no matter how coquettish you move, it is useless.

At this time, outside the city of Fuzhou, Fujian, the artillery units of the Tiandihui were using isorapid fire to carry out inhumane bombardment of the troops under the command of Geng Jingzhong in Fuzhou.

"Tom, tom, tom......"

"Boom, boom, boom, boom......"

Geng Jingzhong had died under the assassination of the Thunderbolt special attack team, and his troops were suddenly scattered, and the generals went their own way, and no one listened to anyone.

One of the strongest army generals is called Xu Shangchao, and he has 30,000 soldiers and horses under his command, so he wants to face the Heaven and Earth Association head-on, so as to accumulate meritorious deeds and get promoted and make a fortune.

Because in his eyes, the Heaven and Earth Society is just a rabble, only engaging in assassinations, and he is not afraid at all if he is tough on the front.

He sent 5,000 soldiers and horses, lined up in arrays, and launched an assault on the Tiandihui army, but as soon as he rushed out, he only heard a roar in the distance.

The next moment, the shells rained down from the sky one after another, smashing into the assault array, and suddenly the people turned on their backs, and the formation was in chaos.

However, the artillery unit of the Heaven and Earth Society had already calculated the direction and impact point, and after the enemy launched a charge, as soon as it entered the range of artillery fire, it immediately opened fire with an equal rate of fire.

This artillery fire did not bombard an area all the time, but was an indented extension of artillery fire, and as a result, the enemy array was almost constantly rushing against the artillery fire during the distance of the enemy's array assault.

Rushing over this way, less than half of the 5,000 soldiers and horses were killed or wounded, and more than 1,000 people were already killed and wounded before they could make a close encounter with the enemy.

Finally they broke through to a distance of only fifty zhang from the enemy, and they were holding oxtail knives and spears, but they were faced with rows of black muzzles.

"Bang...... Bang...... Bang......"

The Celestial Society Musketeers were like waves of the sea, surging forward and retreating wave after wave, and the five teams of musketeers stepped forward to shoot in turn, alternating with each other, and the enemy fell almost in rows.

The enemy also had crossbowmen, but rushing here, there were only a small number of crossbowmen left, and they shot a few arrows, causing dozens of casualties to heaven and earth.

After the array broke through to twenty zhang, only half of the men were left, and the musket team killed and wounded even more enemy soldiers than artillery.

When they thought that the disaster had finally passed and they could fight with each other, they saw that the other party did not shoot, but took out small silver balls from the cloth bag and smashed them at them.

"Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"

Xu Shangchao almost collapsed on the city wall, because he found that the five thousand army was rushing towards the other side, but the crossbowmen had caused dozens of casualties to the other side, while the five thousand army had less than a thousand people left, and the array was so thin that it could not even make up a small formation of twenty people.

Looking at the other side's flat muskets and the cold light of the bayonets under the muskets, the last bit of their morale finally disappeared, and many of them bent their legs and knelt down while running, and their knees still slipped out of the ground.

"Surrender...... We've surrendered......"

Looking at the enemy troops who were already close at hand, but all threw away their weapons and surrendered, the disciples of the Heaven and Earth Society looked at each other, crying and laughing.

In this case, it is as if the enemy is braving the rain of bullets and artillery bombardment, going through thousands of difficulties and dangers, nine deaths, rushing over with great momentum, and then surrendering in a handsome posture.

The disciples of this terrier Heaven and Earth Society are estimated to blow for ten years.

Cai Dezhong, the incense master of the Lotus Hall, looked at the battlefield in distraction, he had lived for half his life, not to mention the experience, he had never even heard that a battle could be fought like this.

On the city wall, Xu Shangchao leaned on the city gate tower, his hands and feet were cold, and he said weakly for a while: "We can't stop it, the Qing Dynasty is over, so as not to bombard the city and cause unnecessary losses, order to go down, open the city gate and surrender!" ”

"Yes, General." None of the generals under him advised him, because they were not fools, and many of them were originally Ming generals, and it was also a helpless move to surrender with Geng Jingzhong back then, and now surrendering to the Heaven and Earth Society can be regarded as setting things right.
