Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty
Chapter 915
Chapter 915
"Are you ready? My lord." Kuo Duan looked at the city of Batavia, which was burning with torches in the distance, and rubbed his hands together excitedly.
There hasn't been a war for several months, and the old guards have been holding back their hearts for a long time.
"Your uncle, it's not to rob, why panic?" Liu Hongjian glanced at Kuo Duan, picked up the binoculars and began to look at the city of Batavia.
Its city wall is not a typical Lingbao shape, but a straight quadrangular shape like the city wall of Ming Dynasty. The city belonged to the Bachachara Dynasty in the [-]th century. In [-], the Banten people conquered the place and rebuilt the city.
More than 70 years later, the Dutch drove away the Banten people and announced that it would become the headquarters of the East India Company.
But the Dutch did not overthrow the city and rebuild it. Building a city requires too much manpower, material and financial resources. The Dutch believe that as long as their fleet remains the world's leading, no one will dare to covet the company's property.
But even the Dutch never expected that in just five or six years, Ming's national power would overtake them like a big explosion, especially firearms.
The city wall of Batavia City has only been heightened and reinforced on the original basis, and the raw material of its foundation is still blue bricks as the main strip and stone as the auxiliary.
This kind of city wall can resist ordinary solid artillery for two or three days, but if it is a howitzer... Hehe!
"Er fool, you lead the artillery battalion to push forward slowly, Linhe, you lead five thousand musketeers to protect you, and each distributes five grenades, and you must silence the sound during the march. If you are spotted by the enemy at the crenel, Yang Tianbao, you will snipe and kill them!" The artillery battalion quickly enters the predetermined position and fires, trying to break into the city before dawn!"
Liu Hongjian put down the binoculars and found a group of generals eagerly waiting for him to give an order, and then finalized the immediate tactics.
The Dutch must have known the news of the Daming navy's landing at this time, and there were not a few soldiers on duty on the city wall, almost one standing on every other crenel.
But four o'clock in the morning is the most exhausting time for people, and it is also the time for people who fall asleep to sleep the most. Under the light of torches, most of the Dutch soldiers on the city wall crenels are leaning against the wall and sleeping quietly.
Liu Hongjian couldn't help but secretly sighed that he chose to travel overnight, and it was wonderful to start the attack at four o'clock in the morning.
First of all, the defenders in the city are sleeping at this time, and the response speed may not be fast. Secondly, there are torches on the city wall, which just makes it easier for Daming's artillery battalion to calibrate the muzzle.
On the contrary, the artillery on the city wall looks like a smear below.
Nearly 1 people were quickly separated from the large army, with musketeers on both sides, and the artillerymen of the artillery battalion worked hard to push the carts and gun mounts towards the city wall.
Eight hundred steps, seven hundred steps, six hundred steps...
From time to time, messengers came to see the distance between the two sides of the compatriots, and Liu Hongjian was also watching the battle formation. According to the previous war with the Netherlands, everyone already knew the shooting distance of the Dutch city's anti-aircraft guns.
The battalion of artillery could be brought to a halt with a further hundred paces, which was just within the range of the howitzers, and the Dutch artillery had already begun to lose its aim and power.
Just at this time, a Dutch soldier on the city wall began to untie his trousers to release water in a daze. The faint moonlight shone on the firearm outside the city wall and flashed a cold light. The soldier felt his eyes flicker in a daze. A glance outside the city wall...
"Enemy Attack! Enemy Attack! (Dutch)"
boom--
With a gunshot, the sniper team that had been hiding not far from the city wall immediately shot and killed the shouting Dutch soldiers, and then there was a loud gunshot under the city wall. People were so overwhelmed that they refused to show their heads.
"Push quickly! Give me all the energy you need to feed me!" Seeing that he had been discovered, Kong Er immediately ordered to move forward at full speed.
After a while, the artillery battalion finally entered the designated position and began to calibrate the artillery positions. At this time, there was still no shadow of the Dutch army on the east wall of Batavia.
After ten breaths, most of the cannons have arrived at the predetermined positions and the cannons have been calibrated.
"One group of city gates, ten steps to the left of the second group of city gates, ten steps to the right of the third group of city gates, fire!" Kong Er was like a rooster jumping around running around among the artillery positions.
A total of [-] marine soldiers carried [-] howitzers with the army. Kong Erlian divided them into three groups to expand the gap in the city wall. This is a tactic that only existed after the advent of howitzers, and only experienced gunners can do it.
Boom—boom——
The artillery began to roar immediately, and the earth and eardrums were suffering.
"Fuck! The city gate... is broken?" Kong Er stunned for a moment as he put down the telescope in his hand.
In conventional wars, the defenders would often seal the city gates with stones to prevent attackers from breaking in. After all, compared to the city walls, wooden city gates were too weak.
But with just one round of salvo and fifteen grenades, the city gate was broken?
Kong Er didn't react for a while, he couldn't understand why the Dutch didn't block the city gate, but he decided not to think about it, and while urging the gunners to reload quickly, he hurriedly sent someone to inform Liu Hongjian of the situation.
In fact, Kong Er's idiot also picked up a leak. Except for the east gate of Batavia City, the other three main gates and four side gates have already been sealed, and only one east gate was left. It was used by the army to go out of the city early in the morning to meet the Ming army.
As soon as the news of the Ming army's landing on the east side of Batavia came to the city, Cohen and Lancelot immediately decided to go out of the city to meet them.
First, Batavia was their territory and they were familiar with the terrain. Second, the Ming army had to bring artillery to attack the city, and the transportation of artillery in the jungle was extremely inconvenient. It was impossible for them to stay in the city and wait for the Ming army to safely transport the artillery to the city.
It's just that neither Cohen nor Lancelot thought that the Ming army would be so fast, let alone that Daming had already used rubber to make tires, and had rubber tires as the power plant for gun mounts, plus there were people more familiar than the Dutch. The Banten guides of the terrain, the howitzers, which are not heavy artillery, are not slow to pass through the jungle.
"Then you're still waiting for the yarn? Press the whole army in! Let me charge!" After Liu Hongjian ruled out the idea that it might be a trap, he immediately ordered Linhe's musketeer battalion, grenadiers, and Kong Erlian's mortar troops to charge. into the city.
At this time, the Dutch had just finished dressing, forming a team, and gathering. Many people followed the large army and planned to climb the city wall for defense while putting on their clothes.
But at this time, the grenadiers and musketeers led by Lin He had already broken into the city, and the enemies were extremely jealous when they saw each other, and immediately there were gunshots and explosions in the city.
It's just that the Dutch's firearms are not as good as Daming's, not to mention it's four o'clock in the morning, and the Dutch's large square formation can't play any effective role in the night.
On the other hand, the musketeers of Ming Dynasty, all bolt-action rifles not only fired fast, but also could find nearby bunkers. The battle inside the city gate soon ended in the defeat of the Dutch.
Two quarters of an hour later, the Ming army took down the east wall and the south wall, and the mortar soldiers led by Kong Erlian, under the cover of the musketeers, had neatly placed a whole hundred small steel cannons on the Dutch's side. outside the barracks.
The sound of explosions resounded throughout the city in an instant, and muskets and grenades were raging. One side came prepared, while the other responded hastily. The flying limbs in the moonlit night showed the misery of the Dutch.
Liu Hongjian never thought that the capture of Batavia would be so smooth, but wars and history are sometimes like this, woven into inevitability by various coincidences.
Looking at the flames above the city of Batavia, he felt very comfortable at this moment. The pressure from the old enemy of the Netherlands was swept away, like a mountain that blocked the only way to collapse.
"Cui Geng, this king has avenged you again!"
