Chapter 771 Bloody Battle at Wusongkou 1
Chapter 771 Bloody Battle at Wusongkou 1
Zheng Zhilong was dispatching troops and generals, and the Heluo New Army was also dispatching troops and generals.The Transformers fleet is moving south rapidly, but the wind direction seems to be wrong now, so the speed is a little slower. It has not arrived yet, but troop transports and cargo ships from Wuhan are arriving in a steady stream, with hundreds of people arriving every day. Soldiers and a large amount of supplies arrived at Wusongkou, and Wusongkou's defense force was rapidly strengthened.This powerful mobilization ability made Yan Yingyuan speechless. How powerful is the Heluo New Army? Such a large-scale mobilization spanning thousands of miles can be so easy. It's terrifying!
"It's mainly thanks to the Yangtze River." Xue Siming explained, "If you take a boat down the river from Wuhan, you can reach Wusongkou in three days if everything goes well. If you walk, it will only take half a month."
Yan Yingyuan said: "I'm afraid it's more than 600 miles from Wusongkou to Wuhan? It takes half a month to get there?"
Xue Siming said: "It depends on whose army it is. We will definitely be fine. The Tianxiong Army can also do it. It's hard to say if it's another army."
From this, Yan Yingyuan came to a conclusion: Don't compete with the new army for marching speed!
Yan Yingyuan is really a very capable person. He has stayed in Shanghai for several months and is very familiar with the situation here. He is also proficient in the art of war and civil engineering. Xue Siming is very relieved to leave the construction of the defense line to him and a group of people Helping the staff to complete the task, he rode around on horseback and had fun, such as buying a few hairy crabs, getting a few saury fish to try, and even went to the riverside to pay a high price to fishermen to help him catch puffer fish.During the Chinese New Year, Yang Menglong treated guests, and everyone gathered together to have a delicious pufferfish dinner. The deliciousness was something Xue Siming would never forget. Shanghai happened to be rich in pufferfish, so how could this foodie let it go?Whatever you say, you have to have a good time before you say anything.Not only him, but Zhong Ning was the same. After settling in the troops, he went around to taste local delicacies, such as sea bass, mandarin fish, swordfish, hairy crabs... he changed the names and ate until he burped violently.They ate, and the entire army followed suit. The fishermen's business in the Wusongkou area suddenly became extremely prosperous, and the prices of fish, shrimp, and crabs rose accordingly!
Xue Siming lamented: "It's a pity that Qingming Festival has passed long ago, and I can't eat the most delicious shad. It's a pity, what a pity!"
Shad, saury and puffer are listed as the "three delicacies of the Yangtze River". Among them, shad is the most precious, because it is a fish with strong seasonality, and the meat quality is the most delicious before the Ching Ming Festival. Yes, after the Ching Ming Festival, it plummeted.Therefore, before the Ching Ming Festival, shad is more expensive than gold, and after the Ching Ming Festival, no one wants to give it away.It's already June, so of course there's nothing to eat.Yan Yingyuan looked at these two sighing in frustration while eating all kinds of delicious food, and felt amused in his heart. Is there such a gluttonous general?
On this day, the fishermen sent a pufferfish weighing eleven catties and two saury weighing two catties. Xue Siming's eyes suddenly became brighter than a [-]-watt light bulb. He swallowed hard and bought them at a high price. Call the chef: "Hurry up, take out all your skills and cook them for me. I want to have a good meal today!"
The chef smiled and said, "Okay, Commander of the army, just take care of it!"
Xue Siming said: "Stop talking nonsense and do it quickly!"
Just as he was talking, Yan Yingyuan broke in and saluted him with a flustered expression: "My lord, something has happened!"
Xue Siming asked: "What's wrong?"
Yan Yingyuan lowered his voice and said: "The fishermen who went fishing discovered that more than 200 warships of the Zheng fleet were heading towards Wusongkou. There is only less than half an hour left from here!"
Xue Siming was stunned: "Go straight to Wusongkou? Zheng is trying to strike first, right?"
Yan Yingyuan said: "I think so!"
Xue Siming sneered: "Then I want to see how capable they are and whether they can chew down Wusongkou, which I personally guard!" He turned his head and saw that the chef had already picked up the puffer fish that had bulged into a ball of meat and was about to use the knife. , subconsciously shouted: "Keep the fish under the knife!"
The cook was taken aback and asked, "What's the matter?"
Xue Siming said: "Don't kill it yet, find a tank to raise it first, and then eat it after I finish the war! You go back first and think about how to cook it most deliciously. Such plump pufferfish and swordfish are rare. Wan Don't let it go to waste..." After speaking, he followed Yan Yingyuan and rushed out.Outside, alarm bells were ringing, footsteps and commands were coming one after another. The alarm had been issued, and the Heluo New Army was quickly gathering to prepare for battle.
The chef had no choice but to put the puffer fish back into the water, muttering: "The devil knows how long this battle will last, kill after the battle? But the fish will die before the battle is over! "
As soon as the alarm bell sounded, the Heluo new army quickly assembled and entered the combat positions, and everything was in order.Eighteen 85mm caliber howitzers and four 120mm cannons were uncoated, and boxes of shells were moved out of the anti-bunker holes and placed on the emplacements. Obviously, in just a short while, the Heluo New Army already knew The enemy army is coming from the sea.Xue Siming is very satisfied with this, this is his army, every unit is so closely connected, as long as the commander is not a pig, commanding this army to fight will not be too dangerous.He climbed onto Fort No. [-], took out his binoculars and looked towards the sea, Zhong Ning and others did the same thing—if you want to fight, you have to know where the enemy is, right?
The speed of the sailboat is about seven knots, which is a little more than thirteen kilometers. Zheng's fleet is less than half an hour away from Wusongkou, and the distance is only ten kilometers. The weather is good now, and it can be seen with a telescope.No, under the guidance of the lookout post, Xue Siming and others quickly discovered the sharp sail shadows emerging from behind the sea level.Xue Siming smacked his lips: "Good guy, there are at least 100 warships!"
Zhong Ning said: "I'm afraid it will be more than two hundred! What a big deal!"
Yang Menglong worked hard and struggled for two years before he could build less than forty warships. Zheng Zhilong was overwhelmed by more than 200 warships as soon as he made a move. This courage is truly astonishing.
Yan Yingyuan said: "General Xue, General Zhong, the total strength of our army is only more than 200 people, but the enemy army has more than [-] warships in one go. There is a huge gap between the number and the number. What should we do?"
Xue Siming said calmly: "When our Heluo New Army is fighting, when did we care about the enemy's military advantage?"
Yan Yingyuan stomped his feet anxiously: "Of course I know that the new army is very strong, but...but this is different from land warfare! The enemy army comes from the sea, with hundreds of warships and thousands of naval guns. They can fight us, but we cannot If we see them, how can we fight this battle!"
Zhong Ning said: "It's just a matter of showing off the tactics. What's the rush? Besides, it's not certain who can't hit whom!" He was full of contempt for the performance of the Zheng's fleet's naval guns, thinking that the Heluo New Army was the worst. The cannons are much stronger than their junk. If the Zheng fleet really dares to approach Wusongkou within the effective range of the naval guns, then the 22 breech-loading rifled cannons on the Wusongkou Fortress will definitely teach them a lesson they will never forget. , more than 200 warships are just more than 200 targets.The only way for Zheng's fleet to capture the Wusongkou Fortress is to brave artillery fire and land on the beach, using infantry to destroy those deadly forts...
Looking back at the more than 2000 infantrymen who clenched their hands and remained silent, he sneered.In a land battle, who does the Heluo New Army fear?
Even if your troops are ten times stronger than ours, we can beat you to death!
In a blink of an eye, Zheng's fleet had already emerged from behind the sea level, its ferocious bow cut through the waves, and headed straight for the mouth of Wusong.The atmosphere around Wusongkou suddenly became tense, and fishing boats, merchant ships, and passenger ships sailed into the Huangpu River under the command of the Heluo New Army.The gods fight, and the little ghost suffers. It's better for them to stay away, and don't get involved in the grievances between Yang Menglong and the Zheng Group, otherwise they will definitely be smashed to pieces!
Finally, the lineup of the entire fleet appeared in front of the Heluo New Army.Even though they are used to seeing big scenes, when more than 200 warships all appeared in front of them, all the soldiers couldn't help but gasp!
Too much!
How much?
So much so that the shadows of the sails merged into a boundless white cloud, almost covering the sea!Those hundreds of warships were packed like dumplings, with high bows, coming through the waves. Anyone who saw this terrifying scene would gasp!Zhong Ning took a deep breath: "Good guy, really good guy!"
Xue Siming said: "This is just less than [-]% of Zheng's strength."
Zhong Ning said: "It's so powerful! When will we have such strong maritime strength?"
Xue Siming said: "Hurry up, when the Zheng family is defeated, it will be our turn to rule the world."
Zheng Zhibao was also holding a single-tube telescope bought at a high price from a Dutch businessman and looking at the Wusongkou Fortress.
In about a week or so, the Wusongkou Fortress has taken on a completely new look. The weeds on the fort have been burnt, burned, and mowed, and the damaged walls have been repaired, and many new fortifications have been added.Sandbags are used to build a long parapet on the pier side. Many peasants are moving heavy sandbags one by one and laying them on the ground like ants moving house. This parapet lengthens at an alarming speed.In some steep places, deep trenches were dug and barbed wire was pulled up... Huh?Barbed wire?He looked carefully, and it was really barbed wire.This time it's a bit troublesome, that thing is very annoying, it keeps cutting and breaking, and it's covered with thorns, just hanging it lightly will make your skin bruise, I heard that in Lushun, Jiannu suffered a lot from it, you must be careful .
Look at those turrets... There are a lot of sandbags in front of each turret, and I don't know what they are used for.Behind these sandbags, there is a section of shiny gun barrel, which reflects the dazzling light in the sun. It seems that they are all new guns, not those "one gun fired two or three times, burst four or five times, and exploded the chamber six or seven times. Eight 90 people fly" bad stuff.However, the number is not large, and there are only about 200 guns. What is the use of such a small artillery against a huge fleet composed of more than [-] warships?At most, it could only hit three rounds, and then it was buried by the overwhelming shells!
The slag with a combat power of five is guaranteed to win!
After inspecting the entire Wusongkou Fortress from beginning to end, Zheng Zhibao knew what he was doing, and ordered: "Take a break first, and after you have recovered your breath, start bombarding his mother and turn the world upside down. When it's almost time, let Hailongying land and kill them all." Do not stay behind!"
The ferocious pirates shouted wildly with their knives, axes and spears. Among them were Chinese, Malays, Japanese ronin, and even blacks.However, the bloodthirsty eyes are surprisingly similar...
Zheng's fleet slowly approached, and Xue Siming ordered: "All the cannons should be withdrawn first, and the infantry should enter the anti-cannon fortifications. When encountering enemy artillery fire, they must not fire back. Wait until the enemy starts to land and then push out the cannons to beat the mother!" "
His orders were faithfully carried out. The artillerymen used all their strength to push the cannons into the artillery fortifications made of logs, sandbags and cement, while the infantry jumped into the trenches and hid in the artillery fortifications. I can't find the shadow either.
