Cutting over the end of the Ming Dynasty: a dog-leg knife at the beginning

Chapter 834 Landing 2
Kui Yi was eating dinner, and when he received the report, his eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets, so he didn't choke to death with a mouthful of food.He coughed violently, managed to recover, stared at the captain who was still pale, and asked loudly, "Are you sure it's the Chinese fleet? Are you really sure?"

The captain said with a sad face: "It's really a Chinese fleet! There are more than 1000 ships, all of which are nearly [-] tons or even more than [-] tons! They came straight to Heliao Port without stopping. Entering the Luermen Waterway!"

Kui took a breath and said with fear: "Why did they come so fast? Don't they need to conduct reconnaissance? Don't they need to rest in Penghu? How can there be such a war!" He originally expected Yang Menglong to at least It is necessary to stay in Penghu for three to five days to rest and reorganize the troops and establish a logistics base. The Dutch army still has at least three days to strengthen the fortifications. Make a plan.However, he never dreamed that Yang Menglong would come so fast, like lightning, without even routine reconnaissance, probing, collecting tide information, etc., as soon as he came up, he went straight to Heliao Port!Such an unreasonable way of fighting caught Kui by surprise, and he was horrified. He immediately realized that he had made another big mistake: If he had known that Yang Menglong had arrived so fast, he should have left the fleet in Heliao Port to deal with the Chinese and stick to the enemy. Help!Sending the fleet north to join the Spaniards seemed to have jumped out of the perimeter and avoided the danger of being surrounded, but in fact it was equivalent to opening the door to Heliao Port, allowing Yang Menglong to rampage!
Boom boom boom!

A few huge roars came from afar, making one's heart palpitate.Kui Yi was shocked and asked, "What happened?"

An officer rushed in with his butt on fire, shouting: "Fortress! The Nassau fortress and the Meridian fortress exploded! It's that gang of bastard natives who did it again!"

Kui's expression changed drastically, he threw off his napkin and rushed out of the Governor's Mansion, looking in the direction of the fort, and sure enough, he saw two black columns of smoke wrapped in flames rushing up high, explosions continued to occur below the smoke columns, and the expanding flames The two columns of smoke are pushed higher, making them even more spectacular.He didn't need to send someone over to check, he knew that the two forts with six powerful large-caliber cannons used to block the Luermen Waterway had already been blown up to the sky, and they were the forts he had worked so hard to build!He was furious and roared: "Are all the guys on the fort deaf and blind, and let a group of natives touch the gunpowder magazine of the fort without any response? I will hang those bastards!"

Your Excellency the governor really wronged the defenders of the fort. They are always vigilant. At night, they send out twice as many sentries, which can be called guarding the forest.However, Shi Tianbao is not something that they can defend if they want to. As early as half a month ago, he took advantage of the opportunity when the Dutch were beaten back into the city by him and did not dare to come out for activities. He continued to harass and mobilize many civilians In the night, the tunnel was suddenly dug, and it took half a month to dig out two tunnels with a length of 300 meters, leading to the bottom of the gunpowder storehouse of the fort, and then placed two barrels of gunpowder underneath in one breath.Seeing a red balloon rising outside Heliao Harbor and confirming that the fleet was about to launch an attack, he ordered the fuse to be ignited, and after two bangs, two barrels of granular gunpowder exploded under the powder magazine, detonating the explosives stored by the Dutch inside. A large amount of gunpowder and flowering shells exploded earth-shatteringly. The soaring flames and the two pillars of smoke that soared high and dimmed the sunset glow in the sky were really spectacular. If it weren't for Shi Tianbao's extremely disciplined army Yan, those rebel soldiers lurking nearby have already cheered!

The joy of the rebel army is Kuiichi's nightmare. Looking at the fort that looks like a boiling crater, he wants to cry from the bottom of his heart.These two cannons were the last line of defense in Heliao Port, and now it was a good thing, and they were handed over before they played any role. What a deal!Fortunately, it is getting dark, and the Chinese dare not pass through the dangerous Luermen Strait at night. They must wait until tomorrow when the tide rises at noon. He still has time...

As soon as this thought flashed through, he heard gunshots like popping beans from the lighthouse, and the blood vessels in his forehead were throbbing. He called a soldier and said, "Hurry up to the lighthouse to see what happened. What's up!"

The soldier hurried over, and bullets flew towards him from a long distance away. He was so frightened that he hid behind a big rock and shouted at the lighthouse, "Don't get me wrong! It's my own, don't get me wrong!"

The person on the lighthouse couldn't understand Dutch, but from his gestures and expressions, he could still tell what he was yelling about. He responded with a smile: "No misunderstanding, it's you I'm hitting!" With a bang, the bullet hit this man. The Dutch soldier scalped him and knocked his hat off.The Dutch soldier's legs twitched and he screamed.When he saw a sizzling iron lump being thrown from the lighthouse and blowing up two companions with a bang, he was already sure that this was not a prank. Those who shot at them from the top of the lighthouse were eight out of ten. Ninth is the Resistance Army!

It's the damn resistance again!

It's the damn Scout again!

Among the Dutch... no, there is a terrifying legend circulating throughout Taiwan: There are a group of terrifying ghosts in the rebel army. Headhunters like to hunt, and the unlucky ones who encounter them often have their heads landed before they realize what happened.These ghosts seem to like to oppose the Dutch the most. For more than a month, thousands of Dutch people have died in their hands. This has never happened since the Dutch became the overlord of the sea, let alone conquering those weak colonies , even if it is a war with Spain, the number one power in Europe, it is rare for so many people to die!Now the specters have reappeared, taking down two forts and taking over the lighthouse with lightning speed, and the Dutch don't even know about it!
The soldier fled back and reported to Kuiyi: "The rebels...the rebels have occupied the lighthouse! We are finished!"

Kui Yi glared at the lighthouse, only to see that the lighthouse had been lit, and the raging fire shot up into the sky, dispersing the dusk. It was bright for miles, and he let out an extremely depressed roar.Now he was certain that he had encountered a well-planned and coordinated attack. The rebels incredibly destroyed the fort and captured the lighthouse without alerting anyone. With the lighthouse as a guide, the Chinese fleet did not need it at all. Afraid of the dark, they could cross the Luermen Waterway overnight and land at Heliao Port!Everyone knows that the tide is rising now, the water level is high, and the navigation conditions are much better than during the day. With the lighthouse lighting up, night navigation, which was originally extremely dangerous, has become very convenient!

Damn Chinese, they are so cunning!You all know sneak attack, there is no chivalry at all!

Kuiyi, who angrily accused the Chinese attack of lacking chivalry, seems to have forgotten that what white immigrants did when they colonized the Americas, Africa, and Asia has nothing to do with the word "chivalry", but something to do with the devil How similar!Of course, as a gentleman, it is understandable to selectively forget some things. Besides, a good memory is useful, can it repel the menacing Chinese? Kui Yi roared: "Retake the lighthouse immediately, and organize Defense, now!"

The Dutch also realized that if they couldn't take back the lighthouse, they were doomed, tonight!Hundreds of Dutch soldiers were organized to attack the lighthouse in an attempt to take it back.They surrounded them with flintlock guns and fired salvos at every window from which bullets came out. The scouts in the lighthouse did not show any weakness, and returned them with accurate marksmanship.This is really unfair, the window of the lighthouse is so big, and the accuracy of the flintlock gun is so poor that it makes people cry. It is sad to want to hit the person behind the window, but the Dutch soldiers have no The cover became a living target for the scouts, and they were knocked down one after another.Now Governor Kuiyi is completely regretful. Why use reinforced concrete to build the lighthouse so strong? Even if he wants to move the cannon over and blow the lighthouse down, he can't blow it down. He can only watch his soldiers being beaten by those damned The scouts shoot like rabbits one by one!There were only eleven scouts guarding the lighthouse, and only nine scouts participated in the shooting. Just nine people, nine rifles, plus grenades and small explosives that were thrown down at the slightest disagreement. Hundreds of Dutch soldiers were killed and wounded, and it was difficult to get over the thunder pool half a step!
As for why the other two scouts weren't involved in the shooting? That's because they were setting up the guns...

A 90mm Thunderbolt Cannon!
This is a new guy. The total weight is less than ninety catties, but it can shoot shells two kilometers away. It is so powerful that infantry simply love this weapon!Carrying the disassembled lightning cannon on their backs, they climbed to the top of the lighthouse wheezing and panting, and happily started to assemble it.Asu shot down from the side of the artillery group, knocking down a Dutch officer who was holding a command knife and directing the shooting, and then quickly reloaded, sneering: "Can you do it? If you can't, throw the cannon quickly." Now, give us the shells to use as grenades! Don’t say, this thing is really powerful when thrown as a grenade, and it will blow up a large piece of it!”

The gunner scolded angrily: "Damn it, don't play with my cannon balls!" He quickly installed the gun carriage, adjusted the shooting circle, and said, "It's done, reload!"

The loader asked, "Where to hit?"

The gunner said: "Now the entire Chikan City is within our range, where can't we hit? Well, considering that there are not many cannon shells, we have to find a big guy... Let's hit the Governor's Mansion first!"

The loader said: "Okay!" Then he continued to adjust the shooting range and aim... A shell was loaded, and with a bang, a scorching air wave was sprayed from the muzzle, and the shell rushed out at high speed, pulling out an extremely beautiful The arc flew towards the governor's mansion screaming all the way.

Unfortunately, since the straight-line distance from the Governor's Palace to the lighthouse is more than 500 meters, the shell missed and landed about 100 meters away from the Governor's Palace, causing a large burst of flames... This error is also too large A little bit.However, the sound of the explosion still aroused screams, and the two gunners were encouraged, and continued to load and fire, believing that they missed!
Seeing the continuous screaming shells flying over the head, heading straight for the governor's mansion, Governor Kui Yi's complexion turned from white to red, from red to blue, from green to black, and his red hair stood up on end, automatic without wind. , as if the anger bursting out of his head, it looked frightening.He was extremely depressed, the lighthouse guards were all pigs!The perimeter guards are all fucking pigs!He recognized it when the rebels quietly groped in and took the lighthouse down. The most outrageous thing is that such a big cannon was transported to the top of the lighthouse and there was no response. With such pig-like men, he There is no reason not to lose the battle!
