Daming: I help my wife be the empress

"General, our warships can't hinder the Ming army's warships at all, they are already approaching the pier!" A military officer commanding in front, sweating profusely, came to report the battle situation to Matsudaira Nobuzuna.

Nobutsuna Matsudaira stood on the watchtower and said calmly: "I've seen it all—I didn't expect the navy to stop the warships of the Ming army.

However, no matter how powerful the warships of the Ming army were, they couldn't directly approach the trestle to land. Their people had to disembark. At that time, there was no ironclad ship to rely on. I wonder what they would use to resist our guns! "

The military officer below opened his mouth to speak, but after thinking about it, he still didn't say anything.

Although Edo Bay was not small, the trestle bridge at the pier did not go too deep into the sea. Last night, Matsudaira Nobuzuna ordered people to destroy a large part of it, in order to prevent the Ming army's iron-clad ships from directly docking.

Now, the smallest ironclad cruiser in front of the Ming army was about one mile away from the pier, but it did not come any closer.

Immediately, hundreds of assault boats came from behind.

These assault boats are not big, and are usually placed on board or tied to the stern, and are only used when they need to land in the offshore.

The more than 100 assault boats that are coming down now are led by large assault boats-the boat is fully loaded with 100 people, but at this time only killed a team of soldiers (50 people), and two steel tiger squatting guns. Conical, wrapped in a layer of steel plate.

There are 50 such large assault boats, and the rest are small assault boats with steel baffles on the front, but each boat can only carry 30 people, and now it is actually [-] people.

"The Japanese general is in a daze. He has already seen our army's firepower, but he dared to let so many infantry charge. It's a gift."

"Songjiang Captain Zhou Rui received it, please tell the communication team."

In a series of huge explosions, the dust and gunpowder smoke rose more than ten feet high, followed by the screams and howls of many people.

If the Ming army can be driven into the sea with human lives, even if the more than 1 shogunate troops died in battle, it would be worth it-death in battle is the fate of soldiers.

"Mr. Songping...Mr. Songping was killed by the artillery of the Ming army..."

In order to avoid being destroyed by the Ming army's artillery, the artillery of the shogunate army has withdrawn to a distance of more than half a mile from the shore.

"The admiral has orders..."

Some of the clever cavalry saw fifty or sixty tiger squatting guns lined up, and subconsciously wanted to withdraw, but it was too late.

Unexpectedly, before he could give the order, the armored cruiser of the Ming Army, which was one mile away from the pier, roared again.

"Matsudaira-kun!"

There are naturally cavalry among the more than 3 shogunate army, and there are even a lot of them, with more than 3000 cavalry.

One after another, the bullets seemed to have eyes, and they fell straight to the artillery positions of the shogunate army!

···
Seeing more than 1 shogunate troops rushing towards the Ming army's position on the pier, Matsudaira Nobutsuna couldn't help clenching his fists, feeling extremely nervous.

While they were rushing, the Ming naval guns fired again, and a burst of bullets fell, causing the Japanese cavalry to lose two to three hundred cavalry.

When they rushed to a distance of a hundred steps from the Ming army's landing force, the Ming army had already placed the tiger squatting cannon—the steel tiger squatting cannon was lighter, and one soldier could carry the cannon, and the other soldier carried the cannon. Keep up with the loaded shells, find a random place on the pier, and just open the bracket on the gun body.

After hearing this, Zhou Rui was taken aback for a moment, and then he was overjoyed.

In addition to using a few of them as messengers and sentry cavalry, Matsudaira Nobuzuna divided the [-] cavalry into three groups as the main means of blocking the landing of the Ming army.

More than two miles away from the pier, Nobutsuna Matsudaira, who was standing on the watchtower, saw this scene, and quickly ordered with a sullen face, "Let the first and second cavalry squadrons attack! Rush over to kill the Ming army and mix with them Chaos!"

Seeing that the charging shogunate army was about to enter the range of the Ming army's squatting cannons, Nobuzuna Matsudaira suddenly heard louder shelling sounds, as if the gods were angry!
Nobutsuna Matsudaira raised his head subconsciously, and saw dozens of black dots shooting towards this side, getting bigger and bigger!
It's Ming army shells!
Matsudaira Nobutsuna's hairs stood on end!
Before he had any more reactions, these shells fell around the watchtower, and even under the watchtower!
boom boom boom

Nobutsuna Matsudaira, who was looking upstairs at the back, turned pale when he saw this scene.When he came back to his senses, he was like an unwilling gambler, and ordered with madness in his eyes: "Order the first three infantry to charge, and the Ming army must not be allowed to stand at the pier!"

boom boom boom

Soon one of the shouts attracted the attention of all the shogunate troops——

"This is the communication team of the First Fleet. Please reply if Matsue receives it."

At this time, there were only about 3000 Ming troops who landed. Even if the guns were sharp, he could pile up the victory with the lives of more than 1 shogunate troops.

Zhou Rui knew that there was a Flying Eagles team in the command room of the navy, which could not only do reconnaissance, but also observe the enemy's formation.

Therefore, when the remaining seven or eight hundred Japanese cavalry retreated in a panic, the three shogunate infantry who were closer to the pier charged strangely at the more and more Ming army pier positions.

It's not that he ignored the terrifying power of the Ming army's guns, but at this time, he couldn't think of any other way to deal with it except to let the infantry charge on a large scale.

It was also at this time that the Shangqian shogunate army who was the first to rush to the range of the Ming army's tiger squatting gun was also horribly killed by shotguns, and large areas fell down, instantly causing the pier to flow into rivers of blood.

At this time, the artillery attache of the shogunate army saw that the Ming army was about to land on the pier, and couldn't help secretly getting excited, ready to let the Ming army also suffer from the artillery fire.

Coupled with the shelling of the rear, and even the shouts of the death of the general, the remaining 2 shogunate troops who were still charging and still staying in the rear collapsed.

But the remaining Japanese cavalry did not retreat, but continued to rush towards the pier.

Now let them use the main naval gun to shoot at the target three miles away, most likely to observe the location of the main general of the shogunate army!
After putting away the walkie-talkie, Zhou Rui immediately sent someone to convey the latest order to the main naval gun crew.

As for the captains of the other nine iron-clad cruisers, they all have walkie-talkies, and they will also receive the same orders, and there is no need for him to convey them.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the landing troops of the Ming army went ashore one after another, moving quickly but methodically.

Behind the tiger crouching cannon, there are well-trained firearms.

It can be said that the quick response of the Ming army completely exceeded the expectations of Matsudaira Nobuzuna and these Japanese surprise soldiers.

On the Songjiang ship, Zhou Rui shook his head when he saw this scene with a binoculars.

As these tiger squatting guns made a bang bang bang sound, a shot of scattered bullets turned into a net of death, covering the rushing Japanese cavalry.

Following the Matsudaira Nobuzuna military order, the Japanese cavalry who were on standby not far from the pier immediately rushed out of two thousand cavalry, divided into two groups and went straight to the pier.

"General Commander!"

The musketeers' three-stage attack and the tiger squatting cannon were used alternately, forming an insurmountable death line, which caused the rushing Japanese cavalry to fall one after another.

In a series of bombardments, most of the shogunate's few artillery were destroyed, and the artillery suffered heavy casualties.

Just as he was feeling emotional, Zhou Rui's walkie-talkie rang.

But the higher-ups ordered him and the nine armored cruisers in front to adjust the main ship's guns to shoot at Zhu Yuan for a round of bombardment.

In the final analysis, the shogunate army at this time was not the elite Japanese army brainwashed by samurai culture in later generations, nor even the elite soldiers of ancient Japan, but noble and veteran soldiers who had been peacefully raised and abolished for decades.

There was Matsudaira Nobutsuna in front of him, and he was barely able to risk his life to resist the Ming army.

Now that Matsudaira Nobuzuna was killed in battle, none of the remaining military officers had the prestige to control the situation, and a major defeat became inevitable.

General Wan Li, who was in charge of commanding the forward landing force, saw this, and immediately left only 500 people to support the follow-up troops to land, and he led more than 2000 people to follow tens of thousands of shogunate troops, and went straight to Edo Castle to kill!
Second more.

Good night~
