Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 415 The Northern Expedition Meets an "Old Man" (Please Subscribe!)

Osmanthus fragrans are fragrant, magnolias are beautiful, thousands of sails pass by the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, Yangzhou Guazhou Ferry can be easily occupied without any effort.

The Yangtze River Navy of the Qing court had no intention of resisting at all. They had already heard the news and had run away without a trace.

Zhu Kezang, the supreme emperor of the new Ming Dynasty, marched on the stone road near Guazhou Ferry holding his sword, falling on the stirrup and pulling the rein.

In the past few years, as a generation of emperors, he has not been fascinated by the gentleness and luxury of the south of the Yangtze River.
Thousands of years ago, the Han army took advantage of advanced civilization and steel manufacturing to send troops beyond the Great Wall, and defeated the Huns.

Thousands of years later, the Ming army should restore the spirit of China and once again lead the world in industrial manufacturing for 200 years, and expel the Tartars in the Northern Expedition.

Yujia has personally conquered many times, but at this time, Zhu Kezang still felt that he was as excited and excited as the [-] Ming soldiers who were as dense as the sea and as imposing as a rainbow.

He felt that his Tianzi Sword was like a bloodthirsty beast, and the icy sword light was like fierce eyes lingering at the traces of Hulu's head.

"Where is the forward troops expected to go?"

Zhu Kezang asked a question, and at this time Lieutenant General Wang Xianwu rode over: "Return to the emperor, the front troops will soon reach Jiangdu County."

Jiangdu County, the first important land that landed in Yangzhou from the Yangtze River, can win every battle if you know yourself and the enemy. Zhu Kezang asked Chen Weiguo, the governor of Jinyiweidu South Town: "Who is the current county magistrate of Jiangdu County in the false Qing Dynasty?"

"Reporting to the emperor, it's a coincidence that the magistrate of Jiangdu County is still an acquaintance!" Chen Weiguo suddenly laughed.

Hearing what he said, Zhu Kezang also became interested: "Who is it?"

"Back to the emperor, it was Shi Shilun, Shi Lang's second son. After Shi Lang died, Li Guangdi interceded. To defend Jiangdu, he managed to summon three thousand township braves to actively prepare for defense, and he also sent a letter of appeal for help to Fu Zhulong, the deputy capital of Manchuria in Yangzhou Prefecture."

"The Shi family is really full of loyalists. Since this Shi Shilun has organized three thousand brave men, let's not underestimate them, order them down, and fight directly. Use our strongest strength to treat these Tartars. The best way to deal with traitors who are running dogs!"

Hearing the word full of loyalty, Chen Weiguo understood Zhu Kezang's meaning, no matter whether he was a good official or a bad official, it was right to send him Zhonglie.

Zhu Kezang is just such an order, but the real executor is Wang Xianwu.

Wang Xianwu's command position is second only to Zhu Kezang, so Wang Xianwu is responsible for deploying which army is responsible for taking down Jiangdu City.

Due to the general strategic value of Jiangdu County, the Qing Dynasty did not pay much attention to it, so the entire Jiangdu County has no military strength.

Wang Xianwu did not make a specific analysis. Because the third town of the National Defense Forces was the closest to Jiangdu County, Wang Xianwu asked He You, the governor of the third town of the National Defense Forces, to organize troops to recover Jiangdu.

He You, a native of Jianhe Village, Mapu, Yunxiao, Fujian Province, was cast under Guo Xing Ye during the Shunzhi period, and later served as General Zuo Wuwei, and participated in the war to expel Heyi and recover Yizhou Island.

He You only sent an infantry battalion and an artillery battalion to form a special column, but a group of miscellaneous soldiers and three thousand townspeople, he felt that these people would be enough.

Now the National Defense Forces are equipped with electric rifles and rifled guns, and the shells are flowering bombs made of nitrate explosives. The explosive power far exceeds the iron bullets of black powder and sugar powder as propellants.

More than 3000 troops composed of infantry battalions and artillery battalions of the National Defense Forces ran towards Wuqiao Town.

The cannon-carrying vehicle was advancing rapidly in the bleak cold wind, and the horses pulling the cannon made the sound of hooves.

The soldiers walked like flying, holding steel guns through the woods.

If one had a bird's-eye view from the sky, the National Defense Army at this time was like a galloping wolf. Their combat effectiveness was not as good as that of the Guards, but it was definitely not bad.

It was summer at that time, and it was rainy in summer, and the sky began to rain down on the blue-gray city walls of Jiangdu County.

Shi Shilun had already heard the news of the appearance of the Ming army. He was a member of the Eight Banners of the Han Army with a yellow banner, a hard-core coated slave. Even if Kangxi killed his father, he still had absolute loyalty to the Qing Dynasty.

For this reason, he made full preparations and forcibly summoned three thousand villages from all over the country to guard the city bravely with him. Those who refused were killed by him and hung above the city gate to deter the people in the city.

At the same time, this Shi Shilun also organized four hundred of his family members into cavalry and sent them out of the city to prepare to attack the artillery of the Ming army. He had seen the power of the artillery of the Ming Dynasty in naval battles, and he knew that his Jiangdu county was just a decoration in front of the firepower of the Ming Dynasty. For this reason, he could only attack the artillery of the Ming army first.

These four hundred Ding cavalry are his last hope, whether he can get rid of his father's shame depends entirely on this.

"There are cavalry in the southeast direction ahead, five miles away!" At this time, the accompanying reconnaissance troops immediately informed the artillery.

The artillery immediately organized five light front-loading rifled guns, and began to load and adjust the rear sights. At the same time, the artillery commander immediately observed the gradually shortening distance with a monocular, and at the same time ordered the gunner to adjust the direction: "Turn left thirty Turn up ten degrees, reload, fire!"

The rifled cannon was flying like flying in the hands of the artilleryman, and after a while, five black conical shells whizzed away with a bang, piercing the blue sky.

At this time, the four hundred cavalrymen of the Qing army who were rushing forward fearlessly charged on the plain with their broadswords flying, but when they saw five shells appear, the shells fired by the rifled guns were in front of them in a moment. Burst in the middle.

The explosive force formed by the nitration explosives instantly formed a huge air wave and directly overturned dozens of cavalrymen to the ground.

At the same time, the shrapnel that exploded were like sharp steel knives, under the tremendous power, they instantly cut through the abdomen or throat of more than a dozen cavalrymen, and some even directly penetrated into their foreheads.

Not to mention the war horses, they were directly blown into pieces, and so were the people, bloody and bloody. In a short while, there were only fifty or so fleeing cavalry left in the entire cavalry of the Qing army.

This is just the power of five light rifled guns.

The main artillery force of the towns of the Guards and the National Defense Army has cluster firepower formed by at least one hundred rifled guns, which is a truly terrible nightmare for the Qing cavalry.

The soldiers of the special column of the Wehrmacht continued to advance.

After marching to the place where the Qing cavalry was shelled, I saw the Qing cavalry still lying on the ground crying in front of us.

At this time, the soldiers of the National Defense Army were already used to it, and they didn't say anything. Only the soldiers responsible for collecting the heads consciously came up and quickly cut off the heads of these Qing soldiers and put them on the carriage. These were their achievements.

A Qing soldier who had only one leg broken was desperately crawling out. He didn't want to be killed by these bright monsters.

He is a native of Liaodong, and his father had defected to the Tatars all his life. His fathers had participated in the slaughter in Yangzhou Prefecture. Since he was a child, he thought that the Han people in the south were weak like sheep. He never thought that Ming Yao was so terrifying!
He was terrified, the corners of his mouth were trembling, and his numb hands desperately grabbed the grass moss on the ground and moved forward.

With a stab, a soldier of the National Defense Forces cut off his head with a knife, and put it back on the carriage.
