Chapter 400 Landing on the Beach
In the early morning, there was heavy fog over the vast sea. From a distance, the entire sea was hidden in the thick fog.
I don¡¯t know how long it took, but a small black dot vaguely appeared in the thick fog.
There are more and more small black dots, from one to a dozen, then to dozens, and they are getting bigger little by little.
The black spot is getting closer and closer to the coastline, and it can finally be seen clearly that it is dozens of large ships moving forward in the sea.
On the ship, Chen Xingwu kept looking into the distance with binoculars.
This telescope was given to Chen Xingwu by Li Zhen personally. With this telescope, Chen Xingwu felt like he had found a treasure.
He knows how important it is to discover the enemy first in the ocean.
¡°With this telescope, Chen Xingwu can take the lead.
After a while, Chen Xingwu put down the telescope and said: "No enemy troops were found on the shore. It seems that the Pingzhou defenders did not expect that our troops would come from the sea and had no preparations."
Xue Rengui on the side said: "Don't underestimate the enemy. Pingzhou defender Gao He is the younger brother of Zhao Wang Li Fu's general Gao Kan. It is said that his intelligence is not inferior to Gao He, so he was sent by Li Fu to defend Pingzhou. This is a strong enemy. "
Chen Xingwu laughed and said: "General Xue is overthinking. The most effective way to defend the navy is to intercept the navy at sea and prevent the navy from landing. Even if it lands, it must deploy defensive positions along the coastline. The enemy forces in Pingzhou are basically There is no navy, and now there is no one on the shore"
Chen Xingwu couldn't talk anymore. Through the heavy fog, Chen Xingwu could see that a stone wall appeared on the coastline. He could vaguely see archers moving behind the stone wall.
"General Xue, I really let you talk."
Chen Xingwu blushed. He had just said that the defenders were unprepared and was slapped in the face, but now he couldn't care less.
"Every ship is ready to fight and use cannon to destroy the defenders' shore defenses!" Chen Xingwu shouted.
With Chen Xingwu¡¯s order, the five largest ships lined up on the coast, with their sides facing the coast, and their black muzzles aimed at the enemy fortifications on the shore.
These five warships each have ten French cannons, five on each side of the hull. At this time, the twenty-five cannons on one side of the hull are aimed at the enemy fortifications on the shore.
"Try three shots!"
"Boom, boom, boom!"
After three shells, the gunners finally grasped the distance from the enemy fortifications and adjusted the angle of the cannon.
"Fire!"
"Boom boom boom boom!"
After a series of shells, rubble flew from the shore, smoke rose into the sky, countless enemy archers ran around, and the defenders' fortifications were riddled with holes.
Chen Xingwu couldn¡¯t help laughing.
This is the first time that the Franco machine cannon has been used on a large scale. Unexpectedly, the effect is so good. The powerful firepower of the Franco machine gun makes these enemy forces unable to parry at all.
At that moment, Chen Xingwu ordered five gunboats to cover the water, and the remaining ships began to approach the shore in preparation for landing.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Amidst the series of explosions, the enemy positions on the shore were overturned, making it impossible to organize effective resistance.
Chen Xingwu disembarked with one thousand musketeers and two thousand sailors, formed a dense formation, and launched an attack on the enemy fortifications on the shore.
¡°Bang bang bang!¡±
Every time the musketeers advance a certain distance, they stop to organize their formation and shoot at the enemy fortifications with their guns. However, beyond a distance of 300 meters, the enemy's archers have no effect at all.
What's more, the archers behind the stone wall have already been beaten by the Fran cannon on the warship and fled in panic.
Effortlessly, Chen Xingwu and three thousand men captured the beach position.
Soon afterwards, Xue Rengui led 5,000 infantrymen, and Wang Fangyi led the student regiment ashore.
Under the leadership of Chen Xingwu and Xue Rengui, eight thousand soldiers began to pursue the enemy's defeated troops. Wang Fangyi followed Xue Rengui and left the student group on the beach for fear of losses.
Hei Te Changzhi, commander of the first brigade of the cadet regiment, saw that his large group of troops was chasing the enemy's defeated troops, and immediately said: "Let's go after them too."
Lou Shide, commander of the Second Brigade, shook his head and said: "I heard that Gao He is a general with both wisdom and courage. Why can't he resist attacking his coastal defenses? I think there is some fraud involved."
Hei Te Changzhi said: "It's not as complicated as you think. A small Pingzhou is just a small town.What can the defenders do, besieged internally and externally? "
"Lao Cheng, do you think this is true?"
Cheng Wu thought for a moment and said, "I think Brigadier Lou's words make sense, and General Wang's intention is for us to watch the battle, not for us to participate in the battle. I think it's safer to wait here for news from the front."
"You two, why are you so cowardly?" Hei Te Changzhi said with some dissatisfaction.
Lou Shide said: "In this kind of landing battle, I think we should first consolidate the beach position so that the enemy will not be driven into the sea. Let's repair the enemy's abandoned fortifications. If the battle ahead is not good, we can It can also be a buffer here so that you won¡¯t be driven into the sea.¡±
"Okay, I'll just listen to you." Hei Te Changzhi is extremely brave. Although he is not as resourceful as Lou Shide, he is not stupid. Seeing that Lou Shide and Cheng Wuting both agreed to build beach fortifications, he could no longer insist on it. They had no choice but to build fortifications together.
Although this stone wall has been shelled and partially destroyed, most of it is still well preserved, so it is not difficult to build.
The student group is building a wall here. On the other side, Xue Rengui, Chen Xingwu and Wang Fangyi led an army of 8,000 people to continuously pursue the Pingzhou Army retreating from the beach.
The Yingzhou soldiers chased them all the way, and before they knew it, they came to a wilderness covered with wild grass. The huge weeds were as tall as a person. The remnants of the Pingzhou army in front suddenly disappeared into the wild grass.
"Wait!" Xue Rengui waved his hand and everyone stopped.
Chen Xingwu asked: "General Xue, why don't you pursue him?"
Xue Rengui frowned and said: "The terrain here is unfavorable and it is easy to be ambushed. It is better to withdraw first and then divide the troops into ten groups. One group will be sent out every quarter of an hour to pass through this grass."
"Will this waste time and allow Pingzhou City to prepare?" Chen Xingwu asked.
¡°This is the safest, don¡¯t fall for Gao He¡¯s scheme.¡±
"General Xue may not think too highly of Gao He." Chen Xingwu disagreed.
"I think General Xue's words are reasonable. We still have to be careful." Wang Fangyi said on the side.
Li Zhen had ordered before coming that this time Chen Xingwu would be the main general on the sea, and Xue Rengui would be the main general on land. Since Xue Rengui said so, Chen Xingwu had no choice but to agree and start evacuating the wilderness with his people.
"Kill!"
Seeing the surrounding surroundings, countless shouting and killing came from the grass, and the arrows were under the rain (Remember the website of this site: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
