The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

The retainer, who was covered in blood and whose robes were stained with sea water, knelt in front of Zong Yigao, crying out in pain.

"The navy of our army fought fiercely with the Qing invaders for half a day, and the whole army was wiped out, the whole army was wiped out!"

The retainer escaped from the battlefield to report the news. When the battle situation was bad, he jumped off the warship to escape, and swam back in the direction of Tsushima Island.

He risked his life to bring back news of defeat for Zong Yigao, as well as the blood-stained flags!
Zong Yigao was wearing a heavy Kai, and the armor plates were polished to shine.

However, with such a set of heavy armor on his body, Zong Yigao didn't feel the slightest sense of security at this moment.

Instead, there was a faint chill on the back!

The fear in my heart is constantly fermenting and brewing.

With a thud, Zong Yigao's feet went limp, and he slumped down on the desk driven by the heavy armor.

The already heavy weight plus the armor weighing tens of jins almost cracked and collapsed the case.

Looking at the expression on Zong Yigao's face, a group of Zong Yi clan's retainers felt what it means to be sad when the rabbit died.

Finally, after pondering for a long time, Zong Yigao spoke.

"Pass down the order, and immediately prepare for the land battle to meet and land the Qing invaders!"

"The ups and downs of my Zongyi's family will be fought here!"

As the order was issued, a large number of samurai under the Muneyoshi clan, as well as ashigaru, began to gather and prepare for battle.

The samurai wear a body ball, hold a samurai sword, and carry spears, bows and arrows on their backs, in a posture of charging into battle.

A larger number of ashigaru gathered, holding long spears and iron cannons, ready to go into battle.

If we use the military structure at the end of the Ming Dynasty as an analogy, the warriors are probably equivalent to the servants of the generals of the Ming army.

Excellent equipment and outstanding martial arts are for tough battles!

Footlight is an ordinary soldier.

When it really came to the battlefield, when the two sides fought hand-to-hand, just like the servants of the Ming army, the warriors were the main force of the army.

There are a large number of ashigaru, which is to play the role of a flag-waving!
If there is no samurai to charge and press the formation, the combat effectiveness of ashigaru is quite weak.

Zong Yoshitaka personally led the ashigaru, a samurai under the Tsushima domain, and marched towards the pier.

Prepare to prevent the landing of the Qing army in the direction of the pier, and realize the tactics of attacking halfway.

He felt that instead of letting the main force of the Qing army land, the two sides would fight in battle, it would be better to simply prepare to block the landing of the Qing army and attack halfway through.

……

At the same time, after the water battle, the navy divisions of the Qing army began to clean up the battlefield, rectify their troops, and prepare for landing operations.

And because the landing battle is also a water battle, the command of the Qing army is still in the hands of Zu Zeqing!

The troop carriers began to move towards the beach, and some small boats were even ready to wash the beach.

The Qing army dispatched almost all the portable rattan armor in the army, and equipped them to the front-line troops preparing for landing operations.

Cotton armor and iron armor are too heavy-duty. Once a soldier falls into the water wearing armor, there is absolutely no possibility of surviving.

Although the protection of rattan armor is not as good as that of cotton armor and iron armor, its lightness and weight that can even float on the water are the biggest advantages.

The navy of the Ming army was equipped with a large number of rattan armor, and the Qing army equipped the navy with rattan armor, which was also learned from the Ming army.

As for the question that the rattan armor is easy to catch fire...

How to put it, everything is not perfect, and everything has its flaws. Compared with the protection that rattan armor can provide, and its function similar to that of a life jacket, its fire-prone flaws can be tolerated.

Besides, you don't know how to make some wet mud before the war, and apply it on the surface of the rattan armor as a fireproof layer?

An elite soldier in the Qing army was wearing rattan armor and holding a rattan waist knife, ready to land and fight.

When the army lands later, it is up to them to open up the battle on the beach!

At the same time, the blocking force led by Zongyi Gao also arrived at the pier, ready for battle!
Woo!Woohoo!

The low-pitched horn sounded.

The war is about to start!
Some warships of the Qing army have advanced to less than one mile from the coastline.

And, under the operation of the sails and oars, the side of the ship was aimed at the beach.

The gun window was opened, revealing a dark muzzle!

The Qing army was going to use shelling to cover its own army to complete the landing.

Boom!Boom!
The shelling began.

With the rumbling sound of shelling Zhu Hong, shells escaped one after another, turned into inconspicuous black spots in the sky, and shot towards the army formation at the beach.

It's just a pity that due to the existence of wind and waves, the accuracy of naval guns is limited.

Although the shelling was lively, most of the shells failed, and the damage was limited.

Moreover, since the sand on the beachhead is wet and soft, the kinetic energy of the shells falling on the sand will be absorbed by the soft sand.

Can't even jump-bounce!
However, even so, listening to the rumble of shelling from our own side, the morale of the landing troops of the Qing army was like a rainbow.

In this era, the real role of artillery is not to cause much damage to the enemy, but to deter the enemy and boost the morale of one's own side.

Don't care about hitting or not, just listening to the rumble of cannons is enough to boost the morale of one's own soldiers.

As the landing boat got closer and closer to the beach, the little days on the shore also launched a counterattack.

The quality of the iron cannon team in the small days is actually not bad.

If there was no threat from the Iron Cannon Squad, how could the dwarfs of the Wa Kingdom be able to withstand the charge of the iron cavalry of the Ming army during the Wanli Korean War?

Amidst the crisp gunshots, Xiaotian's iron artillery team fired progressively, firing several rounds of horseback shooting.

During this process, soldiers of the Qing army who landed continued to fall under the guns.

Big holes were punched out by the lead bullets on his body, and blood continued to overflow, flowing everywhere.

The small boat that landed was hit continuously by lead bullets, and sawdust was scattered everywhere!

"kill!"

"Break the formation!"

"Come on, move forward!"

"..."

However, this did not stop the Qing army's offensive.

A large number of soldiers of the Qing army who landed held their rattan badges and moved forward with their heads covered.

At that time, Zheng's rattan soldiers were elite and good at fighting, which left a deep impression on the Qing army on the battlefield.

Especially the rattan plate that can block the musket is even more unforgettable.

Then, the Qing army imitated it and became our rattan soldiers of the Qing Dynasty.

The rattan soldiers held huge rattan cards, blocked their bodies with the rattan cards, and rushed forward.

The lead bullets hit the rattan plate, leaving small holes in the rattan plate, but they were caught by the silk cotton layer inside the rattan plate and could not penetrate the armor.

Seeing that their muskets couldn't work, the iron artillery team in the small days panicked.

But at this moment, the warriors wearing the body pill charged up with spears in their hands.

Prepare to fight personally with the rattan soldiers of the Qing army!

Don't look at the samurai in their childhood who wear a samurai sword around their waist every day, but when it comes to the battlefield, the samurai sword is just a decoration.

The real main weapon is still a long weapon such as a spear!

On the battlefield, it is no joke that an inch is long and an inch is strong.

The soldiers from both sides immediately fought together, slashed and stabbed with knives, and people kept falling on the open space at the beach.

The smell of fresh blood continued to spread!
Holding the rattan badge, Liu Si rushed forward and collided with a little day warrior.

The long spear was stabbed on the rattan plate, and as Liu Si turned sideways to unload his force slightly, the tip of the spear slashed open.

On the opposite side, holding a long spear, the little day samurai who stabbed with all his strength lost his feet and almost fell to the ground.

With a wave of the Yanling Saber in Liu Si's hand, it slashed on the body pill of the warrior of the little day with a clang, but it failed to break through the armor.

The samurai who was just chopping back a few steps staggered back!

In this era, small days are still worthy of the name, and the average height is more than a head lower than that of Chinese people.

In other words, in this era, almost none of the countries and races in the world are taller than the Chinese!

Although the samurai class in the small days are generally taller than the civilians because they eat well enough.

But the height is also not comparable to the Chinese!
What you need to know is that the landing troops selected by the Qing army were also tall and strong men selected from the army.

Liu Si is more than a head taller than Xiao Tian on the opposite side!
The two sides were fighting, just the oppressive feeling brought by the height made Xiaotian on the opposite side look earthy.

He felt that what he was facing now was simply a giant!
Holding the rattan card, Liu Si charged forward again, and the samurai from the small days stabbed Liu Si's leg with a long spear.

Since the rattan card can't be pierced, then only the lower limbs can't be blocked by the rattan card!

Liu Si dodged sideways again, stabbing in the air with his spear.

The rattan plate in his hand pressed down, pressing the piercing spear shaft to the ground.

With a bang, the light of the knife flashed, and the tip of the spear was chopped off, leaving only a bare wooden stick.

The little day on the opposite side couldn't react in time, but the next moment he let go of his spear, drew out his samurai sword and slashed at him.

Liu Si just squatted down on the ground in order to chop the spear, and before he could get up to avoid it, he simply raised the rattan card above his head.

And, while raising the shield, he swung his knife and chopped off the leg of Xiao Zai in front of him.

clang!Puff!

At the same time that the samurai sword was cutting on the rattan plate, Liu Si's Yanling sword was also cutting on Xiaozizi's leg.

In an instant, blood shot out, and Xiao Zizi fell to the ground screaming!

In the next instant, the head of the little boy with a broken leg was chopped off, and the screams stopped abruptly.

However, Liu Si was just about to find his next enemy.

There was a pop, and there was a sharp pain, a sharp spear pierced from the back and pierced out from the chest.

The blood-stained tip of the gun was dripping with blood, which was extremely eye-catching!

His body went limp in an instant, and in the next instant, the knife flashed and his head fell to the ground.

The current beachhead battlefield basically has no rules. Since it is a landing battle, there is no formation to fight.

Soldiers on both sides gradually fought in chaos on the beach!
During this process, the tall soldiers of the Qing army showed their physical advantages.

The taller the body, the stronger the strength.

Strong enough, coupled with rich experience in warfare, this is still not wearing heavy armor, otherwise, these Qing troops will all turn into unstoppable war machines on the battlefield.

And the Japanese samurai is not easy!
As members of the privileged class, they have been practicing martial arts since childhood, and many people have always been indoctrinated into the concept that they were born for war.

Coupled with the fact that he was wearing a barely sturdy body pill, although the average height of the samurai in the small days was a little short, their combat effectiveness was actually not bad.

The fighting on the beach is getting more and more intense!
People from the Qing army continued to land and go into battle.

As the fighting became more and more intense, the casualties of both sides continued to rise.

Gradually, as the Qing army invested more and more troops, the casualties of the warriors in the small days were too severe.

The samurai attrition is so severe that morale is almost on the verge of collapse!

Zongyi Gao could only command Ashgaru to go up, wanting to ease the casualties of the samurai.

However, when these unarmored ashigaru faced the rattan soldiers of the Qing army, they were almost unilaterally slaughtered.

……

With the passage of time, more and more Qing troops were thrown into the battlefield, and the direction of Xiaotian was being squeezed and kept retreating.

The heavy armor of the Qing army was transported to the beach by small boats, and a soldier of the Eight Banners of the Qing army began to put on armor.

After putting on their armor, they began to prepare to charge in formation.

At the same time, the horses of the cavalry of the Qing army began to be transferred to the shore.

The cavalry of the Qing army also began to prepare for battle.

If we say that at the beginning, the samurai in the small days could still support a few times in front of the rattan soldiers of the Qing army.

Then, after the Eight Banners of the Qing army stepped into the field, what the warriors in the small days had to face was a unilateral massacre.

The tall soldiers wearing heavy armor are simply tanks of this era!

"kill!"

"Brothers, go ahead!"

"Breaking the city! Breaking the city!"

"The general has an order that after the city is broken, the sword will not be sealed for three days."

"..."

Amidst bursts of shouts and killings, the Qing army rushed forward in heavy steps, and directly dispersed the array of Xiaotian.

A Qing army in heavy armor stalks through the army formation, no one can stop it!

In the next moment, the cavalry of the Qing army also entered the battlefield!

Teams of elite cavalry formed an array and charged towards the formation of Xiaotian.

The ground trampled by the horses roared endlessly, and the sand and soil flew up.

"kill!"

"Break the formation! Break the formation!"

"Wan Sheng!"

"..."

The cavalry roared and rushed past, and at the same time as the cavalry passed by, the sharp scimitar also passed by.

In an instant, blood was sprayed, and heads were thrown flying one by one!

Driven by the speed of the horse's running, the saber was so sharp that it could easily split armor and cut off a person's neck.

The army formation of the small day was washed away by heavy steps, and plowed by the cavalry again, and the casualties rolled up!

Zong Yigao looked at the scene of the army being defeated on the battlefield, his eyes were tearing apart.

"Can An be like this?"

"Anneng is like this!"

Zong Yigao felt extremely painful when he watched those samurai and ashigaru who were loyal to him being plundered like pigs and sheep.

He raised his sword and wanted to lead the team forward to repel the roaring Qing cavalry.

"Samurai, follow me to kill the enemy!"

The samurai beside him saw that the master was going to lead the charge in person, and their morale, which was originally low, was instantly boosted.

"Kill the enemy! Kill the enemy!"

"Kill the enemy!"

"..."

However, just as Zong Yigao was about to rush out, he was hugged by a retainer.

"Family... Patriarch, no!"

"The Qing invaders are brutal, and they have the advantage of cavalry, so don't fight wildly!"

"That's right, Patriarch, if you keep the green hills there, you won't have to worry about no firewood. Let's move out later!"

"..."
