Chapter 683
boom!A boulder slipped from the bunker, splashing a foot-high splash in the Chao Phraya River.

A shell fell on the Siamese bunker, like a meteor shower from the sky, making the Siamese stationed above the bunker unable to lift their heads.More than a dozen warships of the Nanyang Fleet sailed into the Chao Phraya River in a long line, and the single-string artillery fired in unison, covering several Siamese bunkers on both sides of the Chao Phraya River.

"Damn, shoot back!" The Siamese officer was lying under the wall, his ears ringing from the sound of the shell hitting the wall and the explosion.

"Our copper cannon has been... destroyed!" The gunner was also lying on the back of the city wall, and a piece of rubble that was blown away by the shell fell on him, causing him to curl up into a ball in pain.

A Siamese soldier crawled over and complained to the Siamese officer: "General, the copper cannons have been destroyed. Although our artillery also hit the opponent, it was not able to cause fatal damage to their warships at all, or Not even a serious injury! This battle is impossible to fight, and when they land, none of us will escape!"

"The copper cannon has been destroyed. It doesn't make any sense for us to stay here. We can't stop them at all. How about we run away?" Another soldier also crawled over.

The armor worn by the Siamese officer had rolled to nowhere. His hair was full of gravel, and he said out of breath, "If we escape, we will be executed by the king."

The other soldiers said anxiously: "But if we continue like this, we will become prisoners of the Westerners!"

The Siamese officer hesitated for a moment. There were still artillery roaring beside him. It seemed that the incoming mysterious fleet had inexhaustible ammunition and would not give up until it completely razed the bunker to the ground.

boom!Another shell exploded above the bunker, but this shell was not a solid shell, but a shotgun with a fuse, but when the fuse burned to the end, it would detonate the gunpowder inside, causing the shell to rotate at a high speed of more than ten yuan. Shrapnel!

"Ahhh!" There was a scream, and a Siamese soldier was pierced by two sharp shrapnel in his thigh, bleeding profusely!
The Siamese officer looked around the top of the bunker, and seven out of ten soldiers who dared to come to station there were killed or injured, and almost none of them were lucky enough to be safe and sound like him.

"Give up... give up resistance and surrender them." The Siamese officer with a numb scalp said with difficulty.

Deng Qianlong observed the shelling of the bunker on the deck.The sailing battleship Daqin was hit by two shells in the battle just now, one hit the hull, and was bounced off by the hull and landed in the Chao Phraya River.Another shot hit a mast, which caused a little trouble for the sailing battleship Daqin.

"The bunker on the right bank has raised a white flag," said a crew member observing from a height.

Deng Qianlong turned his head to look at the fort on the right bank, and sure enough someone raised a white flag behind the wall.After the other three bunkers saw the surrender of the main bunker, they also raised white flags one after another, and their powerless resistance ended there.Originally, the bunker was only to stop the armed merchant ships of the Westerners, but the Nanyang Fleet is a battleship specially built for naval warfare. The intensity of firepower cannot be compared with that of armed merchant ships, and the strength of the hull is not so strong that the backward artillery on the bunker can easily destroy it. of.

The Nanyang Fleet opened the way, and the troop carriers behind began to land and seized several bunkers.When they boarded the fort, the Siamese soldiers were very surprised to see the soldiers of the Kyushu Army with black hair and black eyes.

"Which country are you from?" Siamese soldiers are still at a loss as to where the army that defeated them came from.

The reason is also very simple. Siam and the Kyushu Army are separated by a country called Chenla. They never imagined that the fleet of the Kyushu Army would bypass the country of Chenla by sea and take the capital of Siam directly from the Chao Phraya River.

"We are the Kyushu Army from China. Now we declare that you have become our captives." Changyi's subordinate Zhao Guirong led the troops ashore. He once led troops to attack Gaoping in Annan Kingdom. He was also the second batch of Kyushu Army. general.

"Kyushu Army!" The Siamese soldiers turned pale in shock when they learned their identities from the translator beside Zhao Guirong. "Our Siamese country has offended you, why did you come to attack our fortress?"

"We came here to attack Toungoo with the help of your country, but we were afraid that your bunker would think we were enemies, so we destroyed it in advance to avoid accidental injury." Zhao Guirong said coldly.

"..." The Siamese officer wanted to strangle Zhao Guirong to death. Believe me, he was afraid of being accidentally injured by the fort, so he simply destroyed the fort? !There is no such logic in this world!

"Press them on board and replace them with our soldiers. Although the artillery here is useless, the position is very important. Leave some people here to observe the situation at the entrance to the sea. In case the Westerners want to intervene, we can notify in time. .” Zhao Guirong escorted these Siamese soldiers captives onto the boat.

The Siamese officers and Siamese soldiers were dejected one by one, and they could only admit that they were unlucky. Who made their bunkers block the way of the Kyushu Army fleet.

"Go ahead." After Deng Qianlong swept away the four blockhouses on the banks of the Chao Phraya River, he drove straight into the Chao Phraya River, basically without opponents.

The warships and troop carriers led by the Nanyang Fleet seemed mighty on the sea, and suddenly shrunk and poured into the Chao Phraya River, blocking the water here.

"Concentrate on driving in the middle of the river, and make way for the fishing boats." Deng Qianlong had a headache for the first time that he had so many boats, and there were some Siamese fishing boats on the Mekong River.

Some Siamese fishing boats in the Chao Phraya River bumped into a huge fleet passing by, causing waves and couldn't help but look up.

"Father, where did these big ships come from?" On a fishing boat, a seven or eight-year-old Siamese girl pointed to the sailing battleship Daqin passing by. The big waves pushed by the Daqin made the fishing boat slightly shake.

"Hush." ​​The Siamese fisherman didn't speak, and covered the girl's mouth with his rough hand, as if he was afraid of the huge fleet that suddenly appeared on the Chao Phraya River, which they depended on for their livelihood.

The icy muzzles exposed on the hull of the sailing battleship Daqin slipped past his eyes, making him sweat profusely.

The Nanyang Fleet went upstream along the Chao Phraya River, and the fishing boats on the Chao Phraya River did not dare to move, nor did they dare to return to Ayutthaya to inform the king.However, the other troops of Siam on both sides of the Chao Phraya River did not want to find out that this fleet that stretched for more than ten miles was difficult, so they immediately rushed to Ayutthaya for eight hundred miles.People in Ayutthaya were panicked. First, they didn't know where this powerful fleet came from. Second, they didn't know whether the opponent was a friend or an enemy. The most important thing was that they found that they didn't have enough confidence to defeat this powerful fleet. Team!
