Chapter 608 Time changes and things change(2/2)
So the Eight Banners Manchuria stepped directly onto the ice and launched an attack.
The navy of the Ming Army was completely turned into a decoration.
The Ming army was forced to dig a fifteen-mile-long ice trench around Juehua Island in an attempt to prevent the Eight Banner Manchus from landing on the island.
However, the weather was so cold that the ice trenches that the Ming army had just dug froze over again in an instant. Even if they burned wheat straw and set fire to it, the ice could not refreeze quickly. In the end, the Eight Banners Manchurians were able to land on the island.
】
Ten thousand Ming soldiers and civilians on the island were brutally massacred.
The 80,000 shi of military rations hoarded on the island were also robbed, and the Ming army suffered heavy losses.
However, time has changed, and now it is the turn of the Qing soldiers to dig ice trenches and set fire to the ice to prevent the Ming army from attacking. I wonder if the final result will be like the battle of Juehua Island?
Anyway, Hong Chengchou felt like he was in a dream.
…
Inside the Ming Army camp.
The Air Force's Speedy Vehicle 1 once again ascended to high altitude.
Of course, the bottom is tied with cables.
Otherwise, it would be a fool's errand, and the wind would be strong, and I wouldn't know where to fly.
Jiannu's unusual movements could not escape the eyes of everyone on board Speedy Car No.1.
"Look, Your Majesty." Zheng Sen put down the telescope and pointed at the fire on the canal in front of him. "Jiannu has already set fire to the ice. It seems that he has not buried gunpowder on the canal."
If gunpowder was buried in the ice of the canal, there would be no need for such trouble.
Simply ignite the gunpowder and detonate it, which will blow up the ice on the canal.
"This is also expected." Chongzhen said casually, "What we chose is neither a big port nor a military town, it is just an ordinary river. Jiannu can't bury the entire canal with gunpowder.
How much gunpowder do we need? It’s more than a thousand miles from Xuzhou to Beijing.”
Gao Qiqian said proudly: "However, Jiannu never imagined that Long live the Lord would have thought of it a long time ago and made preparations for it in advance. The ice sledges equipped in the transport camp can not only slide on the ice, but can also drive on land.
It can also sail in rivers, so even if Jiannu burned the ice on the canal, it would be of no use."
This time Chongzhen did not stop Gao Qiqi, but accepted the flattery firmly.
