open sea

Chapter 166
What kind of bird fight is this fighting?
Ok?
The battalion soldiers leading the troops in the east of the city rushed to the halfway, with an extremely wonderful expression on their faces, and ordered their subordinates to retreat with a stiff face, all kinds of emotions came to their hearts.

His name is Hu Liangpeng, and he is not some kind of reinforcement from Huizhou Prefecture. He came from Fujian overland to help General... to help Guanghaiwei.

He was not happy when the battalion of the Qianhu Station in Xiangshan came to report that the enemy had guns and there were many guns. Didn't he say he hadn't seen the broken Franc machine gun?One cannon can hit at most three or five people, how many can be installed on this ship?Is it possible to hit from such a distance?
And to be honest, don't look at Hu Liangpeng as just a general manager, but he is really worthy of a thousand households. Several years ago, he was the hereditary Zhendongwei Qianhu. He didn't even have any soldiers. Later, because of his great appearance and burly body, Qi Jiguang transferred the supervisor to transfer his salary, so he was considered as a soldier.

So his officialdom became smaller and smaller, from a thousand households with high official positions but no real power, to a grain operation officer with real power but no official position in the recruiting army, and Qi Shuai didn't take him away when he went north, and finally he was just a handful In short, before coming to Guangdong, there was still a lot of trouble—I made Shangguan anxious. I heard that Guanghaiwei was captured by Japanese pirates. Hu Liangpeng, who is like a door god, was sent to Guangdong.

"No matter, move forward and defeat this Japanese bandit to find a feudal lord!"

Then the cannon rang, good thing, Hu Liangpeng really didn't expect the Banner Army to carry a cannon, and the sound was not a small cannon like Franji.

The general who rushed to help called Liangpeng suddenly felt that the Xiangshan Qianhu people were not bad.

Then he knew that he was wrong, is he not bad?Simply narrow-minded!

He had participated in the battle with General Qi, although only a few times, but he was not afraid of fighting Japanese pirates at all.

The elders of the Guangzhou Mansion on the city wall are all watching, this is all his military exploits!How much credit is it to defeat this Japanese bandit in front of so many dignitaries, huh?Maybe whoever is happy will raise the general manager to the defense in a blink of an eye!
As a result, his mother's cannon fired again, and they were all on target, and the Japanese pirates collapsed... His army was still two hundred steps away from the battle, and they didn't even touch the hair!

At first, I thought about chasing them. Anyway, the Japanese pirates still had three to five hundred steps before they fled back to the camp. If they managed to catch up, it would be a feat. Before they had run two steps, the Japanese pirates' guns on the river rang out.

Dozens of hundreds of shells fell on the top of the hill like it was raining, and the sound alone scared this one enough. The subordinate battalion soldiers all ran back to the corner of the street without calling, and some boldly poked their heads out to look at the hillside. Over there, even after hearing the gunfire from such a distance, he still couldn't stop shrinking his neck.

This has nothing to do with guts, it's human instinct.

Even if Hu Liangpeng is highly skilled and bold, seeing this scene, he can't help standing at the corner and slowly swallowing his saliva, cursing the slang in his hometown, "Zuoqian, if it weren't for the firing of thousands of households in Xiangshan, this cannon might fall on me head!"

Cannonballs hit his head like rain, Hu Liangpeng didn't even dare to think about it, just shrank his neck instinctively, suddenly slapped his leg armor with a long knife, and shouted loudly: "Oops, benefactor is going to be bombarded to death... ...Your mother, avenge your benefactor!"

Just as the battalion was recklessly assembled and rushed to the Japanese pirate camp, and looked at the Qianhu House in Xiangshan, the flag army was even more amazing. The reloading that should be reloaded, the movement is fast, but because the bombardment and deterrence always make mistakes, the movement seems slow from a distance.

Even so, they were still reloading, and they didn't drop their guns and escape!

On the other side of the mountain, there was also the faint voice of a large group of soldiers and horses shouting in unison, as if they were relying on boosting morale to resist the terrifying shelling.

Hu Liangpeng felt that his visit to Guangdong this time was an eye-opener, and the banner troops in Guangdong are real warriors!
In fact, Chen Muqi's army was terrified to death, otherwise they wouldn't have reloaded a cannonball three or five times before pushing it into the barrel. Everyone's hands were trembling. Jun can still hear his heartbeat beating wildly.

But this did not affect them to adjust the cannons to a fixed angle. They raised the seven cannons to the maximum range of [-] steps, and aimed all the muzzles at the Japanese pirates in the smoke and dust. camp.

Zeng Benben's warships were nowhere to be seen, but nothing could stop them from bombarding the camp on the shore.

"Beat his camp, let him have no peace!"

Chen Mu just had an idea to hurt him, so that Zeng Ben had to face up to the threat Chen Mujun's artillery posed to his troops on the shore, and forced him to fall into the trap of choice-either lead the troops away, or send troops to eliminate them first. Get rid of his artillery.

Zeng Benben would definitely choose the latter, because Chen Mu thought that if he attacked Xin'an and Guangzhou for the purpose of looting, he should have retreated at this time, instead of setting up camp and waiting for the army to dispatch troops.

He is waiting.

"Deng Qianhu, lead the troops and set up a formation at the foot of the hillside. If the Japanese invaders dare to attack, we will rush them down face to face!"

Zeng Ben was indeed waiting for someone. It took him nearly a year to finally pick out such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to attack Guangzhou. General Yu Dayou was in Chaozhou, Tang Kekuan was in Leizhou, Guo Cheng was in Huizhou, and the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi was in Huizhou. Zhaoqing and Guangzhou's defensive forces are unprecedentedly weak.

In Zeng Yiben's plan for Guangzhou City, there were only participating generals Wang Rulong and more than a thousand guards, which basically meant that there was no defensive force.

As for the Xiangshan Institute, what is the Xiangshan Institute?
Zeng Yiben didn't know, until today, even if Xu Jinmei was planted under Xiangshan Qianhusuo, Zeng Yiben didn't know what Xiangshansuo was.

until he heard the cannon.

Zeng Ben was a giant bandit who wandered around the sea. He knew the power of artillery well, and even figured out a strategy different from Ming people's water warfare, which is to concentrate artillery on large ships as much as possible, so as to concentrate on killing and injuring the enemy. He is invincible in naval battles, and can often destroy enemy warships of the same size with a single salvo.

He knew something bad was going to happen when he heard the sound of closing the cannon.

It was not good news for him that this army of officers who came from nowhere hid behind the hillside and beat back his vanguard with powerful artillery.

The army has morale, even Japanese pirates.

The vanguard with the strongest combat power didn't even touch the opponent's army, and was directly blasted back by a few extremely accurate artillery. The impact on the morale of the pirates in the camp can be imagined.

"It's a good thing I still found you some Japanese dancers before the battle to boost your morale! If you go back, you won't be able to make it through the night!"

Zeng Benben, with a beard like withered grass, seemed to be able to shake off salt particles when he spoke. The broad joints of his palms slapped the side of the ship heavily, and he stared at the shelled camp without knowing what to think.

"I'm afraid Lin Feng and Lin Daogan won't come. Tell the brothers on the shore to withdraw from the camp to Jiangxin Island, and wait until the dark wooden artillery bombards the city of Guangzhou, and grab it in two hours...Go back to Nan'ao!"
