The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 359 Strike halfway? (seeking a monthly ticket)
The fort of the Qing army only lasted for a quarter of an hour before being beaten to misfire by the naval guns of the Ming army.

Under the cover of naval guns, the landing troops of the Ming army quickly landed on the dock.

The Qing army stationed at the wharf responded quickly and organized troops to counterattack and retake the wharf.

The Qing army in this era still has combat effectiveness, and its fighting will is relatively firm.

At the very least, they dared to attack the Ming army that landed!

There is no such thing as shrinking back and not daring to fight!
The musketeers of the Ming army quickly completed the array loading action, and small-caliber mortars and tiger squat guns were removed from the landing craft.

And set up positions in front of the musketeers array!

The archers of the Qing army stopped less than a hundred steps away from the Ming army, and then lobbed at the Ming army at the pier.

Arrows shot into the sky one after another, crossed a parabola in the air, and shot towards the Ming army.

For a moment, the sound of arrows hitting the breastplate rang out.

The breastplates equipped by the musketeers of the Ming army are not very effective against the heavy bows used by the Manchurian soldiers, and the protection effect on the muskets is not very good.

But the light arrows used by the green battalion soldiers want to pierce the armor, but it is not so easy!
Tang Ren stood in a row with his comrades in arms, and the loaded muskets were leveled and aimed at the front.

The formation of the Ming army was very strict, and the soldiers remained motionless under strict military discipline.

No matter how many light arrows came, from time to time, people would be hit by the arrows on parts of the body that were not protected by armor.

The screams sounded from time to time!
However, without the officer's order, none of the Ming army knew how to shoot, and they dared not shoot rashly.

Otherwise, military law is no joke!
Anyone who dares to shoot indiscriminately on the battlefield without the order of an officer will be sentenced in a court-martial, expelled from the army, deprived of all military rights, and even confiscated military achievements.

Therefore, the musketeers of the Ming army lined up at the pier, despite arrows being shot, but they remained motionless.

Tang Ren imitated the appearance of a veteran beside him, lowering his head slightly so that the brim of the helmet he replaced could cover his face.

Prevent being shot in the face by arrows thrown by the Qing army!
The breastplate of the Ming army is not a decoration, it can block most of the arrows that are thrown.

Therefore, as long as the soldiers of the Ming army can guarantee that the arrows of the Qing army will not hit their vital points such as their face or throat.

If an arrow is shot in a limb, it will be a minor injury at most.

The Ming army has a complete wounded battalion, which can provide good treatment for the wounded.

Whether it is a minor injury or a serious injury, there is a complete treatment system!

Therefore, the soldiers of the Ming army are not like the Qing army. The Qing army is afraid of being injured, because after they are injured, there is a high probability that they will be abandoned.

But the Ming army will not do this!

Wounded soldiers will definitely receive the best treatment, and it is precisely because of this that the Ming army was able to line up against the Qing army's arrow rain.

In the face of the continuous rain of arrows, the array is not chaotic at all!

boom!Boom!

After the naval guns of the Ming army adjusted to shoot at Zhuyuan, they began to aim at the Qing army who counterattacked the pier and opened fire.

Cannonballs rolled and twirled in the formation of the Qing army, smashing paths of blood!
All the lives that were still alive just now turned into lumps of minced meat in front of the shells.

The tiger squatting artillery placed in front of the formation of the Ming army, and the mortars also fired.

Cannonballs were fired at the Qing army!

In an instant, the roar continued!
For a while, the charging Qing army suffered heavy losses.

However, under the supervision of the Eight Banners soldiers behind them, the Green Battalion rushing forward did not dare to stagnate or hesitate even if they suffered heavy losses.

Because the Eight Banners soldiers will not reason with them when they kill people!
As long as they dare to show the slightest timidity or stagnate, the swords of the soldiers of the Eight Banners will slash their heads in the next second.

As the green battalion soldiers of the Qing army rushed fifty steps ahead of the Ming army, the commander of the Ming army finally gave the order.

"Everyone has it, guns up, aim, ready to fire!"

Then, there was a piercing copper whistle, and the extremely penetrating whistle conveyed corresponding instructions to the Ming army's array.

Tang Ren took a deep breath, raised the musket in his hand, his palm was full of sweat.

Wait until the green battalion soldiers of the Qing army rush to 20 meters in front of the Ming army!
The commander of the Ming army waved his hand violently.

"Fire! Three salvos!"

Snapped!clap clap!clap clap clap!

The muskets were leveled one by one, and Tang Ren pulled the trigger violently.

At this moment, hundreds of muskets exploded together, and the gunpowder smoke from the muzzle almost obscured everyone's sight.

At a distance of 20 meters, the lead bullets fired by muskets are very powerful, especially the heavy-duty matchlock guns used by the Liberation Army.

The lead bullets fired close to the face almost knocked down the first few rows of Qing Army Green Battalion soldiers, and even broke bowl-sized blood holes in their bodies.

The internal organs and bones in the body were all smashed to pieces!
In just an instant, more than half of the Green Battalion soldiers of the Qing Army who rushed to the front fell down.

The soldiers of the Qing army who were lucky enough not to be hit by lead bullets stood in the middle of Shura's hellish corpse pile with fear written all over their faces.

Their faces and bodies were smeared with the blood of their comrade-in-arms robes, and the horror on their faces was so strong that it couldn't be melted away.

However, before they could make any other moves, the Ming army in front of them charged!

"kill!"

"Kill the prisoner!"

"Expel the Tartars and restore China!"

"..."

The musketeers of the Ming army chanted various slogans and charged with muskets with bayonets attached.

Tang Ren gritted his teeth and rushed to the front, his cheeks flushed with excitement, and he shouted to kill, venting his emotions.

A Ming army musketeer rushed out of the thick gunpowder with a bayonet in his hand.

The soldiers of the Ming army and the Qing army collided instantly!
Without any accidents, the green battalion soldiers of the Qing army were first shelled, and then fired with 20-meter muskets in the face.

Facing the neat bayonet charge of the Ming army and the flickering bayonet group, these green battalion soldiers of the Qing army would collapse at the touch of a finger.

Even the Eight Banners soldiers who were in charge of the battle were dragged back by the fleeing Green Battalion.

The shouts of killing resounded throughout the battlefield, and the Qing army who wanted to counterattack the dock was quickly defeated!
However, the Ming army did not pursue in depth, but began to arrange defensive positions at the pier to meet the landing of its own large troops.

……

On the other side, Shang Zhijie, Jin Guangzu and others standing on the wall of the outer city of Guangzhou watched helplessly as the Qing army at the pier failed to stop them.

But there was no surprise on the faces of the three of them!

Jin Guangzu said.

"His Royal Highness, please order that the Eight Banners cavalry in Guangzhou City go out of the city to face the Ming thieves!"

"The Ming thieves are now landing, and a large number of troops and luggage are crowded around the pier. It is chaotic and disorderly. It is a good time for my Qing Dynasty to send troops to attack halfway."

At this time, the Qing army had a great psychological advantage over the Ming army.

Therefore, even if the Ming army was superior in strength, the Qing army definitely had no reason to retreat directly to Guangzhou City without a fight.

Shang Zhijie immediately ordered the cavalry under the Pingnan Prince's Mansion to go out of the city to fight the invading Ming army.
