Da Ming started to ascend the throne

707 One-sided battle
"Rumble..."

Little Japan's wish to expect the Ming battleship to leave not only did not come true, but instead launched a fierce attack on the Fukuoka coastal fort.

A few shells landed on the fort, and immediately two shore artillery were overturned, and more than a dozen artillerymen were blasted to pieces.

"Rumble..."

Then more shells fell on the fort, and the coast of Fukuoka became a sea of ​​​​flames in an instant.

Sixty to seventy battleships, each with nearly [-] cannons, this kind of power is something Little Japan has never encountered before.

Forts along the coast of Fukuoka were bombarded by the fierce artillery fire of the Ming battleship for two hours.

Originally, I wanted to hit the Ming warship with artillery, but I didn't expect the naval guns on the Ming battleship to have a far longer range than their shore artillery.

Under such circumstances, Little Japan could only watch him being beaten, and his shore artillery could not hit the Ming battleship at all.

During the artillery battle in the morning, almost all the forts and artillery along the coast of Fukuoka were blasted into the sky.

The land in many places was scorched, and at least [-] Japanese soldiers and civilians were killed in the bombardment.

To get rid of the Fukuoka coastal fort, Zhang Huangyan aimed at the stone walls on the Fukuoka beach.

"Order, the stone wall on the target beach, and blow it all down to Ben Dudu."

This time Zhang Huangyan's order was not well executed.

The captains of the warships reported to Zhang Huangyan one after another:

"Report to the governor, the continuous firing time of the naval guns is too intensive, and it is no longer suitable for intensive shelling again, otherwise there may be a bombing accident."

Of course, the bombardment of the showdown stone wall requires intensive bombardment, otherwise the effect will not be achieved.

Hearing the report from his subordinates, Zhang Huangyan did not dare to attack by force, so he discussed with Li Dingguo:

"Captain, naval guns can't bombard continuously, what do you think?"

Li Dingguo smiled slightly:
"Little Japan has been blocked by Ming Dynasty. We don't care if it is a day or two late. Since the naval guns are overheated, we will attack early tomorrow morning and let the soldiers rest well today."

Zhang Huangyan nodded:
"Okay, order the outer battleships to take turns on duty, other soldiers eat and sleep, and bombard the stone wall of Fukuoka beach early tomorrow morning, and the army lands."

"Yes"

I saw the Ming Fleet bombarding the coast forts, almost smashing the coast.

The Japanese who guarded behind the stone wall began to fear.

They vaguely felt that the stone wall in front of them seemed to be difficult to defend against the bombardment of Ming warships.

However, they were relieved when they saw that the Ming warships suddenly stopped attacking the coast and there was no sign of landing.

"My lord, the warships of the Ming army must have run out of shells. We can take this opportunity to dig holes on the beach to hide. Otherwise, if they attack tomorrow, this stone wall may not be useful."

Digging pits is actually the trenches of future generations, Yamada Jiro's deputy reminded him kindly.

But in that era, no one understood the meaning of the trenches at all, and of course Jiro Yamada couldn't understand it even more.

"Shut up, you kid is worried that my lord will not die, isn't it? I hide in the big pit, and the Ming army comes up. Isn't it a catch?"

Not only can this kid speak Chinese, but he can even understand it.

Seeing that the Ming army did not attack, but retreated some distance, Yamada Jiro sent an order to let his subordinates take turns to eat.

Take a good rest after dinner, the Ming army will definitely land in Fukuoka tomorrow morning.

As the first line of defense in Fukuoka outside the navy, they have great positions and responsibilities.

Little Japan has now started to experience material shortages. In order to persist in fighting the Ming army for a long time, they continue to keep enough food.

Therefore, the food of the Japanese cannot be compared with that of the Ming army.

Each of them had two steamed buns and a pot of drinking water, that is, eating two steamed buns and drinking water.

Even so, they didn't complain, thinking that once the Ming army was defeated, their blockade would be lifted.

In fact, they were still too naive, even if they defeated the Ming army, the navy had been wiped out by Ming, and the Ming navy would still block Japan.

In later generations, they still want to block China in the first island chain, but now Daming doesn't give them the chance to go to sea at all.

On the military side, in order to paralyze the Japanese, Zhang Huangyan ordered the warships of the Ming army to retreat ten kilometers to rest.

At this distance, at night, the shadow of the warship of the Ming army can hardly be seen.

Although Yamada Jiro didn't dare to relax at all and was still patrolling, but in the middle of the night, he arranged to go back to sleep.

Not long after Yamada Jiro left, the Japanese soldiers saw that it was early morning, and they all fell asleep leaning against the stone wall with their firearms in their arms.

Not long after the Japanese woke up, the order to gather was sounded on the Ming warship, and then sixty warships quietly approached the coast.

After about an hour, all the warships were already in place.

"Fire, fire"

Zhang Huangyan gave an order, and two thousand naval guns on one side spewed out a lot of anger.Huge solid bullets bombarded the stone wall, sending broken stones flying.

Several shells concentrated on one place, directly knocking down the stone wall.

Some of the sleeping Japanese soldiers were crushed to death by solid bullets, some were crushed to death by flying stones, and many were crushed to death by collapsing stone walls.

There were even many people who panicked and lit Vulcan guns to fight back, but the guns were aimed at already people.

More soldiers sleeping under the stone wall were injured by the huge shock generated by the solid bullets bombarding the stone wall.

On the beach, the Japanese soldiers fled in all directions and made a mess,
At this moment, Zhang Huangyan ordered to change the ammunition.

"Rumble..."

"Rumble..."

Thousands of flower bombs bombarded the stone wall in a carpet style, and the stone wall quickly turned into a gravel wall, flying into the air in a huge explosion.

The huge explosion of the flower bombs, coupled with the flying gravel, these rounds of bombardment by the flower bombs caused at least 1 casualties.

The rest of the soldiers lay on the ground and did not dare to move. They knew that as long as they raised their heads, their heads would soon be crushed by gravel.

Originally a stone wall to defend the Ming army, the Japanese spent a lot of time and money.

As a result, under the bombardment of the Ming army's naval guns, the stone wall became a weapon that hurt them.

The shelling did not end, shells still rained down on the beach.

The shelling didn't end until the sky brightened, and the sea water on the beach was already stained red by the blood of the Japanese.

The stone wall on the beach has completely collapsed, and the corpses of Japanese soldiers defending here are scattered all over the ground.

There are also many mutilated corpses, either with missing arms or missing legs.

The Ming army didn't care about the casualties of Little Japan, they just came to massacre the city.

Zhang Huangyan gave an order: the battleship quickly approached the beach, and then the Ming army began to disembark and land.

Because the warships of the Ming army were too large to berth near the shore, the soldiers of the Dragon Banner Army immediately jumped off the sea and waded to log in.

The [-] Dragon Banner Army, armed with rifled guns, charged onto the beach, only to be stopped by a few Japanese soldiers.

However, in front of the rifled guns of the Dragon Banner Army, the Japanese could only be shot in the head with a single regret.

There is no way, the rifle gun and the Vulcan gun have a range of five to sixty meters, and they can't touch the Ming army at all.
