Chapter 1298 Zhao Daqi¡¯s Moment

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Night Owl took the lead and led his suicide squad to grab the rope and climb to the top of the city. As he was about to go up, he suddenly heard bursts of strange laughter from the city wall.

    Then Night Owl and others felt their hands loosen, and the tight ropes suddenly broke, and the death squads fell down the city like dumplings.

    Amidst the screams, the top of the city raised fire to the sky. The officers and soldiers guarding the city laughed happily at the misfortune and threw the rolling stones and wood down the city to beat the drowned dogs.

    In fact, the internal agent who once had high hopes was labeled as a ¡®suspected bandit collaborator¡¯ in the first round of screening by the internal liaison team.  The intelligence team would assign special personnel to secretly track all suspects, but they were caught as soon as they took action.

    Again, a ten -point will be reduced.  In the face of organizational capabilities that transcend the times, all cunning tricks can be avoided.

    ¡°Then he took advantage of the situation and sent away the pirates who had stolen the city

    In the darkness, the death squads suffered heavy casualties. They didn't care about the life or death of the night owl, so they fled back to the ship.

    In the end, Zeng counted the number of people in one book and counted more than thirty people, including night owls.  Although the loss was not big, the successive setbacks made him very embarrassed.

    Without looking at the gloating expressions of Mr. Pepper and the others, he banged his pipe and pot hard and ordered in a hateful voice:

    "Tomorrow we will raise a large army to attack the city from all sides! My men are coming from the east, so you can each choose a side to attack!"

    Lao Pepper and the others did not object. After all, they were not here to watch the fun.  In addition to waving flags and shouting, they also had to go out to contain the strength of the official army.

    This group of sea masters are all very smart and know when to paddle and when to fight hard.  After using tactics to no avail, "flowering on all sides" is the most effective way to attack the city.

    Because Chaozhou is a large city with a circumference of more than ten miles and is surrounded by water on three sides.  The pirates have a large number of people, so they can give full play to their strength advantage, spread more flowers, and dilute the already weak defensive force.  They can also rely on the rapid maneuvering of the fleet to make the defenders of the city overwhelmed and worried about one thing and the other.  Once a gap is opened, they can quickly concentrate their forces and attack the city.

    With the matter at this point, they could not afford to lose any blood, so they each chose a direction and returned to their ships to discuss with their men how to attack the city tomorrow.

    ??~~

    The battle situation on the second day was indeed different.

    The battle started at Guangji Gate first. Feeling confident, Zeng ordered his warships to risk running aground and approach the river bank, and focused on bombarding the city head with the artillery on board.

    The ability of his pirate cannons is obviously stronger than that of the officers and soldiers at the top of the city. At such a close distance, even on a floating ship, they can still maintain a high hit rate.

    Amidst the roaring cannons, the shells roared and hit the walls of Chaozhou City.  Thanks to the thick walls of the Ming Dynasty, if it were a shoddy construction like Japan, this row of cannons would have been destroyed.

    Even so, the officials and people guarding the city were still suppressed behind the arrow stacks and could not raise their heads.  The artillery they set up at the top of the city was carefully taken care of by the pirate gunners who were skilled in shooting, and many of them were destroyed.

    ??In fact, it is useless if it is not destroyed. Cannonball is a very valuable skill and cannot be mastered in a short time.  In Zhao Hao's coast guard force, except for the talented Chu Liuxiang, most gunners have to study theory for a long time and train repeatedly before they can improve their hit rate.

    Although big dog owners all have cannons hidden in their homes, it is inconvenient to practice cannons in public. Firstly, there is no venue, and secondly, it is too eye-catching.  So the main purpose of their artillery is to ward off evil spirits and control the house. Are they really using it to kill enemies?  It's just out of imagination.

    In that compartment, the defenders at the top of the city were suppressed with artillery fire, and Zeng Yiben's main force began to land on a large scale.  As soon as they unloaded the prepared ladders and other simple siege equipment, the pirates roared and rushed towards the city.

    At this time, the artillery on the ship had no intention of stopping. Although the solid shells had limited damage to personnel, the pirates' momentum to take down the city in one go at the risk of being accidentally injured was really amazing.

    "Today is a lot of pressure" Wu Chengen's scalp felt numb as he looked at the pirates rushing in through the observation hole on the city gate upstairs.  He had been fighting against the Japanese for many years and had defended the city dozens of times. He had never seen such a large battle before.

    Looking at the defenders who were suppressed by the artillery fire behind the walls and did not dare to raise their heads, he couldn't help but become more worried: "These people are only a little stronger than ordinary people. If they are overwhelmed in terms of momentum, they will really become a mob!  "

    Zhao Shouzheng was wearing a handsome mountain armor that he got from somewhere. Hearing this, he helped the tiger's head that was shaken to its side and strode towards the door.

    "My master is in danger!" The guards rushed forward to pull Zhao Shouzheng back.

    &nbsbsp;The two sides fought fiercely until ten o'clock in the evening, and Zeng Yiben finally called for gold and retreated his troops.

    When the leaders met on his ship, they found that they had lost hundreds of people.

    The heavy losses did not make them want to give up, but instead aroused the gambling nature of this gang of desperadoes. There was only one idea left in their minds - capture Chaozhou City, loot everything, and get back the losses and profits!

    On the city wall, Zhao Shouzheng was very happy, feeling that he had won a great victory, and ordered the slaughter of pigs and sheep to reward the soldiers.

    Wu Chengen was not as optimistic as Mr. Zhao. The tenacity and ferocity of the pirates far exceeded his expectations. No wonder the armies of Fujian and Guangdong provinces joined forces to suppress them, but they still became more rampant.

    The next attack will probably be even more fierce

    Now it depends on whether my wife can persuade Lin Dao to do it.

    Yes, Zeng Yiben will wake up soon and retreat obediently.

    No, we can only continue to fight fiercely, which really corresponds to the southern Fujian saying, "three points are destined, seven points depend on hard work".
