Just when Li Xiao encountered an identity crisis, Li Hu encountered a crisis of blood and fire.

According to intelligence, there are only a little more than 20,000 garrisons in Colombo, and the weapons are not advanced. Tamils who are not descendants of Wu Sangui are even using old-fashioned firearms.

Dealing with such an enemy, Li Hu was not afraid at all. 20,000 people were in front of him, and they were just 20,000 heaps of meat.

When Li Xiu's naval artillery accurately hit the artillery position in the city, the enemy's artillery position was reduced to ashes in the earth-shattering explosion. The walls made of huge stones were reduced to pieces of different sizes and smashed into the sky under the bombardment of the battleship's main guns.

Seeing the effect of the naval artillery bombardment, Ruan Lai howled excitedly and rushed in with his men. Li Hu promised that if he took Ceylon, he could move their families to live there. In the war-torn Cochin, death and disease accompany almost every family, and it is indeed unsuitable for human habitation.

The streets are silent, and you can see nervous and frightened eyes looking out inside the doors. The Tamils leading the way shouted something all the way, as if to tell the inhabitants of the city not to be afraid.

The soldiers looked nervously at the surrounding streets, Colombo is the capital of the island of Ceylon. The houses facing the street are all reinforced concrete houses, and it is rare to see the dilapidated wooden houses or bamboo buildings of Cochin.

It's a fairly modern city, and it's very fast on the streets. There is no garbage and no sewage, and there are drainage ditches on both sides of the road, which are covered with iron fences. A short distance from the street, you can still see blue garbage cans.

Everything went well, and the striker searched and advanced without resistance all the time. It seems that the Gurkha soldiers in the city were frightened by the shells on the battleships.

Until they saw a thick firework shoot up into the sky, followed by explosions one after another. The huge garbage cans were full of high explosives. The explosion was so violent that it shattered almost all the windows on the street. At the same time, it also shattered the hearts, livers, spleens, lungs, and kidneys of the soldiers on the street.

Almost no one in the 300-strong assault team was hit by shrapnel, but without exception, all fell in the smoke. Blood spurted from the mouth and nose one by one, and many people's eyeballs were shocked out, the eyelids drooped on the side of the nose, and the original eyes were two black holes with blood.

The casualties were almost instantaneous, and while Ruan Lai's ears were still ringing, the overwhelming mortar shells had already smashed down.

Before he could give any orders, Ruan Lai and his two hundred men were engulfed in gunsmoke. Countless gunmen suddenly appeared in the streets, crawling out of rooftops, windows, street corners, and even from sewers to shoot.

Many of the Cochin soldiers were shot like a sieve by bullets before they even had time to shoot. A wave of bullets was fired, followed by grenades flying in the sky. The explosions were one after another, and the screams of the Jiaozhi soldiers mixed with the explosions were very terrible.

Suddenly, the houses facing the street opened, and countless Gurkha soldiers armed with Gurkha scimitars rushed out. The Gurkha scimitar shimmered with cold light, and each swing brought out a large canopy of blood.

The smoke of gunfire dissipated slightly in the fierce gunfire of gunfire, and Ruan Lai, in a pool of blood, saw his men being killed under the Gurkha scimitar, and the blood flowed profusely. Severed limbs were everywhere in the streets, and soldiers with severed legs crawled on the ground screaming and crawling, leaving a shocking trail of blood in their wake.

The soldier with half of his head cut off was mechanically twitching on the ground. was cut off in the chest and abdomen, and his intestines flowed all over the ground, crying and calling for his mother.

In the binoculars, Li Hu saw that the Jiaozhi soldiers escaped like rats that had blown up their nests. Most of them were left with no weapons in their hands, and behind them were "whoops" and "whoops", wielding gurkha scimitars in their hands, like savages.

"Bastard!" Li Hu hated his teeth itching, and that Ruan Lai patted his chest and told himself that the Jiaozhi soldiers were iron-blooded and fierce. They can face the most vicious enemies without flinching, and it is only fitting that they can be entrusted with the task of forward assault.

Credulous Jiaozhi people!

The black pressed a large number of Cochin people, and they rushed back to the port area like headless flies. Immediately, artillery fire began to bombard the port area from inside the city.

"Suppress the enemy's artillery fire, the Japanese are landing." Li Hu rushed into Li Hu's conning tower like a madman.

"How do I know where to shoot, the artillery positions on the map are all wiped out." Li Xiu saw the smoke rising from the port area, and smashed the table angrily.

It is clear that the Gurkha in the city were prepared. Someone leaked the news, and everything that went well from the middle of last night to this morning was all a fake. What they wanted was for Li Hu's troops to land. Now more than 10,000 people have landed one after another, and once the landing operation is terminated, these 10,000 people will be counted as confessing to Ceylon.

Although these are all Japanese people, Koreans, and Cochins. But Li Hu didn't want his future to be given up like this.

"Now it's all about airships." Fortunately, Li Xiu followed with a sentence.

The airship shook its massive body and approached the shore. Condescendingly, you can always see a lot of things that you can't see on the ground.

The cannons, loaded with tracer shells, constantly fired at some places in the city. The Countman on the battleship quickly calculated, and then reported the shooting elements to the turret as quickly as possible.

Soon, the main guns on the battleship rang out again. Where the tracer bullet lands, there will soon be a large puff of smoke rising from that place. Warships never carry giant bombs for aviation, one is disgusted with the trouble of hoisting, and the other is disgusted with occupying space.

The huge shells of the main gun are enough to take up space, and there is still room for large bombs for airships.

Now Li Xiu regretted a little that he didn't bring a big bomb for the airship. Otherwise, it is likely that it will be more effective to bomb directly with the airship now. But it couldn't be helped, he didn't expect it at all.

If it was Li Xiao's command, he would definitely bring aerial bombs. In this era, no one knows better than him the role of the Air Force in future wars.

It's a pity that the airship is not an airplane, and the disadvantage of speed alone makes its role greatly reduced. This situation may be better after the new gasoline engine is installed, but it still cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

The defeated Jiaozhi people were miserable because they met the Wa Governors. More than 1,000 people stood in two rows, and the muzzles of dense black holes were pointed at these Jiaozhi people whose souls had been lost.

"Aim! Shoot! "The moment Nobuo Tokugawa's katana fell, more than a thousand rifles fired at the same time. The cross-toed soldiers, who ran back with their lives, were beaten to the point of flesh and blood.

"Aim! Shoot! "Quickly completed the unloading and reloading, and more than a thousand rifles fired again.

Bullets "swished" and "swished" in the air, and the blood of the cross-toed soldiers also flew in the air. The frightened cross-toe soldiers turned around and ran back. Behind them, there were Gurkhas, armed with Gurkha scimitars.

"Whoever made them do this, there are two or three thousand of them." Li Xiu saw the situation on the shore and looked at Li Hu with wide eyes. This kind of immoral order, Li Hu can do it.

"See what I'm doing? I can't give this kind of order to force people to death. These two or three thousand people were frightened, and it was good to stay and be people's husbands. Just kill, waste bullets. ”

“……！” Hearing Li Hu's reason, Li Xiu was simply speechless.

"It must have been done by Nobuo Tokugawa, and they have that tradition." Li Hu shrugged helplessly.

Li Xiu selectively believed Li Hu's reason, life and death on the battlefield are common, but it is such an environment that shows the preciousness of human nature even more.

"It's okay, Li Xiao's two younger brothers are ruthless. It's a pity that his brother doesn't have this ruthlessness. Otherwise, Lao Tzu would have become a ghost under the gun. In the bunker on the hillside next to Colombo, Wu Sangui put down the binoculars and nodded affirmatively.

"This time it was the Jiaozhi people who attacked, and those who supervised the war were the Japanese people. Why didn't Li Xiao send his descendants Liao Army over and get these miscellaneous cards, it was not fun to fight. Wu Laohei put down the binoculars, and his tone was quite disdainful.

Glancing at this old family member brought over from Daming, Wu Sangui understood his thoughts very well. Over the years, Wu Laohei has worked hard to train these Gurkha subordinates, just to compete with the Liao army. As a soldier, I was full of dissatisfaction with the Liao Army, which was known as the first army in the world. At the same time, he was also quite dissatisfied with Li Xiao's imprisonment of Wu Xiang.

"You, you still don't know that Li Dashuai. The life of the Ming people is called life in his eyes. These foreigners are not human beings in his eyes. In this kind of battle, it is impossible for him to send the Liao army to come over. His idea was that it would be okay for all 50,000 people to die. As long as he can occupy the island of Ceylon, human life is not a matter in his eyes. Wu Sangui prides himself on knowing that Li Dashuai very well!

"You mean ......! That Li Dashuai guessed, young master, what you sent to the Ili River Valley is a fake stand-in? ”

"Probably not, in fact, spies sometimes can't be too clean. This is the reason why I have always stopped letting your second child catch Li Yongfang's subordinates. Spies can sometimes come in handy.

It's ridiculous that these people are bribing Tamils and spying on intelligence everywhere. even, he fucking sold false information to Lao Tzu. Is it really Lao Tzu who is wronged? This time, he ate Li Xiao's 50,000 people. Let Li Xiao plant a big heel and see how many people have died, and the Wa Kingdom and the Jiaozhi people can still support him as before.

I guess! It was precisely when Li Xiao received the news that I was in the Ili River Valley that he released his two younger brothers. Ay......! This is also thanks to the information passed on by our people in Daming, and when I knew that Li Hu was preparing such a team, I knew that they were fighting Ceylon's idea.

The island of Ceylon is on the edge of India, and Colombo is a day's flight from Mumbai. If they take advantage of Colombo, I'll be a fart. ”

"Young Master! They have almost bombed our fake artillery positions, and it is estimated that the next round of attacks will be launched soon. ”

"Humph! A few firecrackers, and a cannon made of wood, just fucking scared them. deserved, a shell of the battleship's main gun costs 500 Ming silver coins. If this pass is beaten, I'm afraid it will cost tens of thousands. Wu Sangui looked at the smoke rising from the city and smiled evilly.

"More than that!" Wu Laohei followed Wu Sangui and laughed evilly.

"You can fight here with confidence, and the lost troops will be replenished at night. Preferably, the Ming fleet would come and cut off the sea route between Ceylon and India. I've already covered the channel with mines, and if I can blow up two ironclads, it will be too profitable.

Colombo, you will slowly consume with him, and they will never be able to fight for manpower. There are more than 100 million Indians behind you, and I will use whatever you want. ”

"Young master, why don't you drive them into the sea all at once?" Wu Laohei was a little puzzled, with his power on Ceylon Island, he could directly launch a counterattack tonight and drive the Ming people into the sea.

"They've only come up with more than 10,000 people, and now you're blowing up the port and don't let them continue to land. You left behind more than 10,000 people, but the people floating on the sea slipped away. Now it is necessary to contain Li Hu and Li Xiu and prevent them from having a chance to slip away. This time, your young master, I want to have a roll of bread.

If you can catch Li Hu too, it will be fucking awesome! ”

"Understand, young master, you actually want to grind this battle. dragged Li Xiu and Li Hu here all the time, and asked them to stay, and they couldn't run away with a stick. You should have been clear about this beforehand, otherwise you wouldn't have lost so many rockets in the morning. ”

"Rocket artillery is not a problem, I'll give you ten more tonight, plus five thousand shells. There is also an arsenal on the other side, and if Li Hu and Li Xiu want to get supplies, they have to sail back thousands of miles to Xinjiapo. We are here, and we will consume and kill the Li brothers. ”

"I'm relieved to have your words, and voila! guaranteed that Li Hu and Li Xiu would lose badly. Wu Laohei patted his chest and assured Wu Sangui.

Wu Sangui had no doubts about Wu Laohei's assurance, in fact, when he lost the battle of Xinjiapo two years ago. Wu Sangui thought that Ceylon Island would be Li Xiao's next target. It was also since then that he has been secretly running Colombo City.

Under Wu Sangui's care, the reinforced concrete buildings in Colombo City are second only to Mumbai. All government buildings are very sturdy. Moreover, each building has firing holes. Many of the shooting holes are open close to the ground, and it is impossible to shoot from here.

The buildings facing the street are generally tall, and in addition to insulating vision, throwing grenades down from above is also a nightmare for enemy troops on the street. What's even more terrifying is that there are some bricks on the street that can be pried up. There are reserved holes underneath, and the mines only need to be put on them.

As long as someone passes by and accidentally steps on that floor tile. The least consequence was that the man lost a leg.

As for the explosives on the side of the road, they are even more hidden. It looks like the place where it is a wall, but in fact, it has been reserved for square holes. There was an explosive bag inside, and as long as Li Hu's soldiers appeared nearby, someone would detonate the bomb.

Bombs with a lot of iron sand and steel balls exploding are an absolute nightmare for anyone.

This morning, Ruan Lai was blown into a sieve by countless steel balls because of his carelessness.
