As the commander of the first company of the Marine Corps, Sun Bing played the role of a front-line commander in the mission of the landing operation, and the other two companies and an artillery platoon equipped with six field guns were commanded by him during the mission.

In fact, in Sun Bing's view, the fortress connected by the city wall and various fortifications in the distance is not terrible, and the city defense facilities look far inferior to the Manila city that was attacked in the South China Sea a few months ago. Of course, since his boss emphasized that tens of thousands of Qing troops might have been assembled in this area, and that there would be a considerable proportion of cavalry troops among them, he did not dare to be careless at the moment.

The equipment of the Marine Corps is considered to be at the first-class level in the Haihan Army, but there are also obvious shortcomings, such as the strength of troops and land mobility, which greatly limit the combat effectiveness of the Marine Corps. Although the Marine Corps replenished some military horses from Sanya after the Battle of Manila, this unit was subordinate to the Navy after all, and the number of real first-class war horses was limited, so it must have been given priority to several main army forces, and all the Marine Corps could get was just a group of pack horses, which were not suitable for charging and fighting.

Since the Marine Corps generally undertakes amphibious combat missions in the coastal areas, it will rarely participate in the tough battles of attacking cities and villages, and there is no advantage in terms of heavy firepower, and only two kinds of light field guns, 85mm and 95mm, are not suitable for fighting fortified positions. Therefore, after landing here, the marines did not rush in, but stayed by the river, using warehouses and other buildings as shelters to build temporary positions.
