Chapter 32: Go to War!

Day 4.

Tantai Meng had received several urgent reports, and the investigators reported that the officers and soldiers of Dapeng City had received orders and began to prepare to assemble and prepare to attack Xin'an Village.

This day also happened to be the day when the Tai Dream booked the departure of the army.

In order to wipe out the officers and soldiers in this Dapeng city in one fell swoop, Tantai Meng directly mobilized more than 2,000 soldiers, and at the same time prepared a frontal death squad and a diving unit with strange soldiers all the way.

The diving force would swim across and attack from the end of the battle field opposite the city of Dapeng, the only village with a coastline in Xin'an County.

However, their main task was to cut off the rear road of the naval division battalion and let these officers and men of the naval division fight against themselves.

In the school grounds, the army has been assembled and is waiting for Yutai Dream's instructions.

He stared at the soldiers for a while, and when his emotions were almost brewing, he picked up a loudspeaker and began to shout to the soldiers: "My soldiers! Not long ago, we captured Xin'an County, so that everyone can live a good life! ”

"But!"

He paused and removed the loudspeaker so that the soldiers and captains below could see him clearly.

"But there is a handful of men, a few hundred, who want to attack us, relying on a dilapidated fortified city not far away. Shouldn't we strike first and eliminate them? ”

The people below immediately became surging and shouted one by one: "Destroy them!" Destroy them! Exterminate them......"

Yutai Meng waved his arms a few times, signaling these soldiers to stop one by one, several captains stopped first, and with them as the center, the excited soldiers closed their mouths one by one.

Tantai Meng then said in a deep voice: "In this battle, as long as the soldiers who are brave in battle and have outstanding military achievements, no matter the background, I will not hesitate to reward!" ”

The soldiers who heard the words of the dream of the Tai, one by one excited looks directly appeared on their faces, there were very few Qing Dynasty officers and soldiers in the city of Dapeng, less than a thousand, so many of them attacked the city, and the weapons were sharp, how could it be reasonable to not take it? For them, those credits are already three fingers to pick up snails--- nine out of ten.

Zhan Taimeng looked at the magnificent momentum of the army and waved his hand directly: "The army is leaving!" ”

A group of soldiers wearing armor and soldiers with steel swords and spears in their hands immediately walked out of the school field and walked through the thoroughfare of Xin'an County.

The "snapping" sound of the military boots stepping heavily on the ground during walking, the "clanging" sound of the armor shaking, and the cold and shining light of the weapon blade made the entire Xin'an county town quiet.

The vendors, merchants, and ordinary people who were doing business next to them were all neatly arranged, dressed in uniform clothes, and the soldiers who went out with solemn faces were so shocked that they knelt on both sides of the road.

These ordinary people and merchants and vendors had never seen such elite soldiers, and they were all terrified, but there was another sense of stability in their hearts.

With such a strong army of soldiers, Xin'an County, and even the cities that will be conquered in the future, the rule of Tantai Dream will be stable and stable, and it will not be easily broken.

And these small people actually don't want much, just for a stable environment, after all, they would rather be peaceful dogs than troubled people.

As for the various families in Xin'an County, after seeing such an elite army, they all panicked, but secretly immediately took back their outstretched hands and feet, and they all looked honest and honest, and they were as kind as they wanted.

At the same time, more people began to plan to enter the army of the Tantai Dream, they wanted to make meritorious achievements, wanted to be crowned with wives and children, and wanted more and greater power......

Out of Xin'an County, Yutai Meng ordered the soldiers to take off their armor, put these armors into their personal space one by one, and then started a rapid march.

Easily set out to march the army and the death squad marched all the way, and soon arrived outside the city of Dapeng.

Yutai Meng immediately distributed armor and food, and let the soldiers dress and eat, and at the same time, take a short rest.

He took out the small suspended planes that had been installed with bombs earlier, installed electronic monitoring screens, generators, signal receivers and other equipment, and began to fly remotely.

After countless hard exercises in private by himself, he was already able to command these small aircraft groups very skillfully.

The small group of planes slowly rose, then took off steadily, and gradually began to accelerate, flying over the wide wasteland square outside the city of Dapeng, and then climbed rapidly, flying high above the most important north city gate, and the officers and soldiers on the city wall who were waiting, climbing up and down, and constantly watching and reconnoitring the formation here.

The officers and soldiers defending the city of Dapeng, who had arrived early on by the arrival of the Lantai army, had already quickly informed the garrison and guerrilla generals of the enemy situation.

At this time, Pan Wei, who was then the guard of the Dapeng Naval Division, was discussing the war with the guerrilla generals, two left and right sentinels, and seven foreign commissioners in the government office (the administrative center of Dapeng City).

For the guerrilla generals and the garrison of the Chinese army, the two sentinels and the foreign commissars seemed very leisurely.

This kind of siege has not been seen before, and this coastal defense city has encountered countless dangers since its birth. On several occasions, even the outer city of the city fell, and in the end, the enemy had no choice but to retreat if they did not take the city.

For example, in the fifth year of Longqing, the Japanese invaded by taking advantage of the gap, the soldiers defending the city were outnumbered, retreating to the city, the Kou besieged the city for more than 40 days, and it was still not broken. ”

Although the number of short-haired thieves attacking this time was more than twice that of the soldiers defending the city, since ancient times, it was necessary to attack several times the battle and siege of the city, and it was possible to take a fortified city at several times the cost of death.

And the 2,000 men and horses besieging the city are not at all taken seriously by these sentinels who are old and accustomed to fighting, and the foreign commissioners.

[However, these short-haired people are really rich, and they actually have a pair of armor in their hands, and some of them are wearing thin and strange-looking leather armor that looks very tough. 】

These Qing Dynasty generals thought about the armor worn by the soldiers of the Lantai Army, and they had to salivate one by one.

Yes, those stab-proof suits were regarded as leather armor in the eyes of these Qing Dynasty generals, so they were not as interested as steel armor.

Naturally, no good ideas could be come up with after such a short period of discussion, so the guerrilla general and the Chinese garrison had to instruct everyone to follow the previous model of experience in defending the city.

Several of them also went out one after another to the city wall, preparing to personally go up to the city tower to supervise the city and raise their morale.

The small group of planes simply circled around the city of Dapeng, and Yutai Meng compared the terrain inside with the information he had obtained.

This coastal defense city has Dong Mountain and West Mountain as a mountain protection in the east and west respectively, Pai Nga Mountain in the north, and Qi Niang Mountain across the sea in the south constitute the barrier of the city, surrounded by mountains on three sides to form a safe haven, including the whole city, thus making the city easy to defend and difficult to attack.

There are three main streets in the city, namely Dongmen Street, Nanmen Street, and Zheng Street (the intersection of West Gate and South Gate Street). It has a South Gate street about 278 meters long and 1.8 meters wide that runs through the south and north city gates, and crosses the East Gate Street that leads to the east gate and the west gate. Other slender alleys are winding and twisting, separated by rows of residential buildings. Most of these buildings are made of wood, including the Chinese Army Garrison and the General's Office.

As for the important avenues and the pavement of several mansions, they are paved with long strips of green linen stones.

There are also government offices, temples, temples, ancestral halls, academies and other buildings in the city.

Because the roads in the city are not direct and are not grid-shaped, there are generally T-shaped streets in the city. At the same time, the streets in the city look very narrow, and the houses are all connected together, which is really suitable for fire attack!

Moreover, the terrain outside the north city gate is higher than the other three sides, and when the time comes, you can capture this city wall and stand on this north city wall to command, you can see the entire city at a glance!

Yutai Meng relieved his mind and prepared to launch an attack on the Qing Dynasty officers and soldiers with a group of remotely controlled small planes.

On the other hand, the diving troops led by Li Dawang Erdan received the signal sent by Yutai Dream early, so one by one, they put on diving suits, put on oxygen tanks on their backs, jumped into the water and swam to the opposite side of Dapeng City, which is also the only village with a long coastline in Xin'an County.

At this moment, they all arrived next to the end of the field, but the beach water here is very shallow, and this strange army will be exposed if they get closer, so they are all waiting for the chaos caused by the attack on the side of Yutai Meng.
