Chapter 89 Chasing the house

"Not a good sign!"

Fu Kana, the governor of Gaizhou City, was having lunch, while looking at the gloomy sky outside and murmured to himself.

"master!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a heart-wrenching tragedy came from outside.

Before Fukana could spit out a fish bone in her mouth, she was so scared that she swallowed it directly. The hard fish bone was stuck in the esophagus without any accident. General Fu, who had just been blocked from third-class Ada Haha, felt uncomfortable in his throat as soon as he opened his mouth, and he couldn't even speak for a while. He sat there and his face turned red and he retching.

"Well?"

Baoyi, who rushed in, lay there in a confused look on her face.

"Sir, the Ming army is coming!"

Just as an officer rushed in and shouted.

"You dog slave!"

General Fu, who was angry, ignored him and pointed at Baoyi and cursed in grief.

At the same time, he grabbed a steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth as quickly as possible, and bit it hard and swallowed it hard. It made a strange sound in his throat like a duck that was strangled. However, the steamed bun was finally swallowed. General Fu was obviously much better. He stroked his chest with his hands and breathed a sigh of relief.

"grown ups?"

The officer came up to him and asked tentatively.

General Fu raised his head and opened his mouth and was about to say something, but his face suddenly changed, and a mouthful of blood was squirting out, instantly blurring the officer's face.

"Come here!"

The coat let out a heart-wrenching scream again.

The city guards' yamen were in chaos.

However, what is even more chaotic is on the city wall.

On the wall of this famous ancient city, all the defenders were running towards their posts in panic. The bells on the drum tower kept ringing, and the dull drums were also beating. The soldiers of the Manchu and Han Eight Banners were all looking at the sea to the west in horror. On the blue sea, accompanied by the rising tide, a huge fleet slowly came slowly under the waves. Countless warships formed a spectacular scene with sails as they were sailing like forests. On the decks of those large warships, one cannon could see the army was shocking.

Of course, what is even more shocking is that the largest warship is erected with twelve dragon flags waving in the wind and a yellow crank cover.

The dog emperor is here.

"This is Gaizhou City, it's not small!"

Yang Feng said, looking at the square ancient city in the distance.

"Your Majesty, this area is Gaizhou, Fuzhou and Jinzhou are all big cities. However, since the fall of Liaoyang, the people in this area have been unable to escape to Shandong. In addition, Mao Wenlong came to fight and tug at Jinfu, and the entire area was almost completely abandoned. The Tartars had a small population and could not fill so many places. Only Gaizhou was north, and there were basically no one from Xiongyue City to the south. However, the Tartars were invincible to fight, and at most there were some small boats on the Yalu River. Therefore, the imperial navy could still control islands such as Shicheng Island."

Zhang Mingzhen said.

It was only after Yang Feng arrived at Shanhaiguan that he learned that the Ming army actually occupied Shicheng Island, and there was also a Shicheng Island general Ma Denghong, and the famous Ming fan of North Korea, Lin Qingye, was also there. They were both under Huang Fei's subordinates.

"What a pity Mao Wenlong!"

He said with emotion.

"Login!"

Then he said.

"Your Majesty, the Qinghe River is small and shallow. The large ships in the fleet can only move in by tide and must withdraw in only three hours at most!"

Zhang Mingzhen reminded him.

"Don't worry, I have my own composure!"

Yang Feng patted his shoulder and said.

Zhang Mingzhen didn't say much. In fact, there was nothing to worry about with the emperor in person. He then bowed and ordered the ships to sail into the mouth of the Daqing River in the rising tide.

As for the city's defenders, they didn't dare to come out at all. There were only one thousand defenders in total, and there was only one Niulu Manzhou, and the rest were all Han troops. There were more than one example of the dog emperor beating the elite of the Manzhou of the 1,000 Eight Banners. Just this little man was like committing suicide. At least there were cannons on the city wall.

What's more, General Fu was vomiting blood at this time!

The defenders of Gaizhou City watched the Ming army warships take advantage of the tide to enter the Daqing River, and then began to lower their sampans to transport soldiers to the shore at the same time. The dog emperor was the first to climb to the north shore. Seeing him standing on the shore with a scary big knife, the defenders in the city were even more afraid to come out. The big knife, like the giant axe, was almost performed as a magic weapon for demons. The Korqin tribe was chopped by that thing. They all lay on the city wall trembling with fear, and watched the Ming army in red clothes and carrying bird guns landing continuously. Then, under the command of the officers, they began to rely on the river bank to build simple chest walls with mud, and cut down trees nearby to create deer antlers.

He even lifted out a strange iron wire ring like a snake, fixed it one by one between the deer antlers.

Well, that's barbed wire.

Snake-shaped barbed wire.

Soon the full tide period passed, and the large ships in the Ming fleet in the Daqing River retreated with the tide, and all five thousand Ming troops landed, and one of them began to march south of Gaizhou. There was also a small Qing army stronghold, Xiongyue City, stationed in a small number of Qing troops. The Ming army on the north bank quickly established a barely useful defense line and then began to build a simple dock by the river. Although there were also wharfs in the south of Gaizhou City, they were within the fire range on the city wall. Then some small boats transporting cannons docked and began to unload one cannon. It was obvious that they were not ready to attack immediately, which also made the defenders breathe a sigh of relief.

At this moment, the bad news was sent to Niuzhuang by the fast horses who were relaying.

After receiving this bad news, Gushan Ezhenbaduli, who was stationed in Niuzhuang, almost spurted out old blood. He never expected that Yang Feng would play wing landing with him. He knew very well what it meant when the Ming army captured Gaizhou City. From Gaizhou to the north, he entered the main settlement area of ​​the bannermen. The dog emperor gained a foothold on this line, relied on the continuous sea supplies and his strong combat power, and rushed northward, the Liaodong bannermen would have blood flowed into a river, especially at this time, the spring was sown soon. If he kept harassing people who could not cultivate, they would starve to death in winter.

The guy reacted quickly and reported to Shenyang, while the 5,000 Eight Banners mobilized from Niuzhuang, Haizhou and other places went south to reinforce.

However, the first one to arrive was the defenders of Xiongyue City from the south to the north.

Wanghaitai Pass 30 miles southwest of Gaizhou.

"Ma, a group of bird gun soldiers scared these bastards."

The third-class inlaid yellow flag, Meilezhang Jingyile Shen looked at the Ming army in a hurry in front of him, touched the white beard and said speechlessly.

This old guy is 75 years old this year and has fought a lifelong battle with the Wild Boar Skin father and son. In fact, he was dismissed from his post at an old age. However, because the Eight Banners are not young and middle-aged, he had to re-reinstate him and act as the garrison of Xiongyue City again. But no one expected him to fight. Xiongyue City is not the front line, it is just a warning. He has a total of Niulu in his hand, but he has not received the order. He is in the south of Gaizhou, but this area is his defense area, including the Gaizhou defenders, but his base is Xiongyue City.

It was obvious that he did not take the only thousand Ming troops who blocked him seriously.

What's more, these are still one thousand infantrymen.

And he is the most incombatable bird gun soldier among infantry.

Moreover, there were neither shields nor spearmen, nor even side vans, only two small cannons and a light infantry that seemed to have no cotton armor. Not to mention that he had a Niulu, even if he had thirty Eight Banners athletes, he was confident that he could disperse it in one breath.

"Sir, kill me, let the little guys see how our old Eight Banners fight!"

A veteran next to him said.

Most of this Niulu are veterans over forty years. The young and middle-aged men consumed too much last year, and all of them were all over the age of grandfathers. But these old guys were indeed old, but no matter which one of them was killed in the sea of ​​blood, no matter which one of them had cut the heads of dozens or hundreds of Han people. The rich combat experience was not comparable to that of the younger generation. They could see the result of the battle at a glance from the composition of the Ming army opposite.

"Come on, do your best!"

Yileshen picked up his spear and yelled.

"Do you want to divide your troops to attack the flanks?"

The veteran said.

“Is this necessary?”

Yileshen said speechlessly.

It is indeed unnecessary, just less than a thousand Ming troops rushed over and stepped on them.

The three hundred old soldiers of Manzhou Province, the Yellow Banner of the Three Hundred Inlaid Yellow Banner, quickly raised their spears, and then activated their war horses to form the Yangtze River Delta with Yileshen as the core, and launched a charge towards the Ming army.

"Calm down, don't be confused!"

Zhu Yiwu, the commander of the Second Infantry Battalion of the Bandit Brigade, shouted with a sabre.

He was a gang member from Jiangxi Province. Because he was generous and righteous, he was very respected in the bandit brigade. When he was electing officers, he was voted as the battalion commander by the entire battalion. Although his heart was pounding for the first time, he still endured panic and performed his duties. He knew that the emperor was not far from the north. When he thought of the emperor's figure, the Tartars in the distance seemed not that scary.

At most, it's just a death.

For such a good emperor, death in battle is glory.

He took a deep breath, pointed the Yanling knife in his hand and shouted forward, "Fire the cannon!"

Behind the two four and a half pound field guns beside him, according to the artillery parameter table, the gunner who had just finished aiming quickly put the fuse of the ignition rod in his hand into the ignition hole. With the deafening sound of the cannon and the flames ejected from the bore, two shells suddenly flew out and instantly hit the charge Qing army, watching several Qing troops being beaten to pieces.

Two gunners from eastern Zhejiang Province, who were born in the fallen country, immediately cheered.

At the same time, other artillery soldiers completed the loading in less than half a minute at the fastest speed.

The cannon roared again.

"Rise the gun!"

Zhu Yiwu yelled at the Qing army, who was less than a hundred feet long.

The soldiers of the bandit camp who were tremblingly suppressed their fear and raised their bayonet guns with bayonet guns tremblingly. At the same time, the two cannons fired a third round of roars, but at this time they had turned into shotguns, and large lead bullets in tin-skinned buckets were whizzing out, instantly hitting the Qing army less than fifty feet. The Qing cavalry was immediately beaten up like they stepped on countless traps.

Seeing this scene, the soldiers of the bandits felt much more at ease.

Just as the artillery began to reload the shotgun, with the command of the battalion commander, all the soldiers began to aim.

"Open fire!"

Zhu Yiwu pointed forward and roared angrily.
