Chapter 350 Attack Failed! (seeking subscription)
And because black powder is used, and it is buried underground, the ground will absorb part of the kinetic energy and fragments during the explosion.

So, not very useful!

Coupled with the complete corruption of the military manufacturing system in the late Ming Dynasty, no one used this thing anymore, and it was gradually lost.

But it is not too difficult for Zhu Hongyu to imitate it if there are enough skilled craftsmen.

Of course, one of the important reasons why the pressure mines will be lost is that this thing is not very practical.

My Qing Dynasty can do things to drive people to fill cities. After encountering landmines, isn’t it normal to drive people to land mines?
The Qing army drove the people through it, and the landmines that should be blown up will be blown up, and those that should not be blown up will be duds.

If it weren't for the special circumstances of this island battle, the Qing army would have no place to arrest the people to go to thunder.

In addition, the beachhead of Zhoushan port is narrow, and the Ming army's landmines can't actually exert their due effect.

At the same time, the artillery in the Ming Army Fort began to use shotguns!

The sound of artillery firing with shotguns is much lower than that of artillery firing with solid bullets.

boom!Boom!

The dense canopy of cannonballs shot towards the Qing army that had landed on the beach.

puff!puff!puff!

Countless cannonballs were like a torrent, washing away the Qing army that had rushed to the beach.

The tide is rushing on the beach!
The sea water rolled back the sand on the beach, and all the broken corpses and broken ship fragments were rolled back into the sea water.

The light blue sea water was stained red with blood, limbs and arms, and the internal organs of broken corpses were floating on the sea.

The smell of blood is overwhelming!

On the beach, from time to time, a landmine will explode after being stepped on many times.

A mass of sand shot up into the sky, mixed with flames and fragments, tearing apart the bodies of the soldiers of the Qing army.

The sound of crackling muskets rang out one after another!
The Ming army musketeers in the fort loaded in an orderly manner, then aimed at the direction where the Qing army landed on the beach, and fired rounds of salvos.

The fort was 300 meters away from the location where the Qing army landed at Tantou, a distance far beyond the effective range of a flintlock gun.

However, because the musketeers of the Restoration Army fired salvos, and the Qing army did not wear armor in order to grab the beach!
Even if the distance is a little farther, it can still cause a certain amount of damage to the Qing army!
At the very least, it is still possible to suppress the landing of the Qing army!

Under Shi Lang's order, countless soldiers of the Qing army rushed towards the fort after rowing to grab the beach!

However, under the cover of the crossfire of Ming army forts, the Qing army who landed couldn't hold their heads up at all.

There were heavy casualties, but a breakthrough was not possible for a long time!

"kill!"

"Attack! Attack! Attack!"

The Qing army charged like a tide, but then retreated like a tide, leaving no results except for the corpses left on the ground.

Shi Lang's palm holding the binoculars had bruised veins. Looking at the dire situation on the beach, he felt helpless from the bottom of his heart.

Can't attack!

In any case, it is impossible to attack!

The firearms of the Ming thief far surpassed that of the Qing Dynasty, it is too sharp!

Under the blockade of Ming thieves' firearms, it was difficult for Daqing to complete the landing, let alone conquer Zhoushan Island.

Seeing the Western fortresses and forts of the Ming thieves, Shi Lang invited Brown and Van der Laan and asked them how to break the situation.

Van der Laan shook his head and said helplessly.

"Dear Admiral, please allow me to say bluntly that the forts and forts built by the Ming people are typical bastion-style buildings."

"As far as the current situation is concerned, the only one who has conquered the bastion head-on in a short period of time is the Ming army on the opposite side."

"I really can't imagine how the Ming army conquered the bastion in a short period of time!"

"You know, even in Europe, when the armies of various countries face the bastion, they only have the stupid way of besieging it."

Van der Laan said a little discouraged.

After seeing that the forts and forts on Zhoushan Island were all bastion-style buildings, he no longer had illusions that the Qing army could conquer Zhoushan in a short time.

The Englishman Brown on the side spoke.

"Maybe we can bypass the port and find another place to land!"

"Then go around and outflank the Zhoushan Fortress!"

"Then use siege tactics!"

Shi Lang nodded in agreement, he is not stupid, since the port is blocked by the fort and the situation cannot be opened, then he will not fight the Ming thief at the port.

The same goes for bypassing the port and finding another place to land!
The most is that there is no port and wharf, and it is a little more troublesome when landing, which is better than being hit by the Ming army's fort as a living target.

However, at this moment, sirens sounded in the fleet of the Qing army.

boom!Boom!

The sound of shelling resounded through the sea, and shells fell on the fleet of the Qing army.

After leaving the battlefield, the navy of the Ming army turned around and came back!
A round of shells smashed the navy of the Qing army into a mess, and the last few bird boats transporting supplies and luggage were completely sunk.

A large amount of supplies floated on the surface of the sea, and along with the broken corpses, the wreckage of the bird ship surged in the waves.

Just when Shi Lang was about to ask someone to fight back, Wu Ming led the navy of the Ming army and left again swaggeringly.

Angrily, Shi Lang pulled out the precious saber from his waist, slashed at the railing, and let out a loud roar.

"The bright thief bullied me too much!"

It's just that Shi Lang is angry, but the war will continue.

The Qing army began to send people to look for other landing sites, and the Ming army's forts also began to extend their firing range, pouring firepower continuously at the Qing army fleet in the port area.

The fleet of the Qing army was forced to withdraw from the port!

On the side of the Ming army, soldiers began to come out of the fortress to harvest the heads of the Qing army on the beach.

Seeing this scene, although the Qing army was angry, they could only fire on the beach to vent their emotions.

Other than that, there is no other way!
The soldiers of the Ming army retreated back into the fortress the moment the Qing army opened fire.

Heads with money rat tails were hung on the top of the fortress to demonstrate against the Qing army!

Shi Lang, Duolong and others were extremely popular, but there was nothing they could do about it.

Just when the Qing army found a suitable landing place and was about to land in Zhoushan, and then land and sea attacked the Zhoushan fortress.

The fleet of the Ming army came back again!
Facing the transport ship of the Qing army, after the troop transport tilted its fire for a while, when the Qing army reacted, it left the battlefield again.

Under the harassment of the Ming army's navy, the Qing army's landing operations did not go smoothly!
However, the Ming army's navy is still limited in strength after all, and it can only do harassment, and cannot fight a decisive battle with the Qing army's navy.

The Qing army finally landed successfully!

And after completing the landing, gather troops and kill in the direction of Zhoushan Fortress!
The fierce battle has begun again!

The sound of artillery was rumbling, and from time to time soldiers of the Qing army were shredded by artillery shells, turning into stumps and broken arms.

As the Qing army got closer and closer to the fortress, the Ming army's fort even used flowering bullets.

The shell fell into the crowd, and the flames and fragments produced by the explosion unscrupulously devoured lives!

The Qing army's first sea and land attack on Zhoushan Fortress ended in failure.

……

The failure of the attack did not discourage Shi Lang.

Because he had already imagined it!
Shi Lang ordered in an orderly manner that the Qing army set up camp on Zhoushan Island and prepared to besiege the city.

It's night, the moon is high in the sky!

The galaxy is shining!

The stars are projected on the sea, making the wide sea seem to become another sky.

Looking in the direction of Zhoushan, Shi Lang opened his mouth and said to Duolong who was beside him.

"Maybe it's time to write to the capital and ask the court to transfer the Wuzhenchaoha Heavy Artillery Battalion to Zhoushan to help..."
