Anti-Qing: Starting from the Reincarnation of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 349 Landing Operation

"Load, load the cannon quickly!"

"Aim at the Ming thief's fleet and hit it hard, hit it hard!"

"Let those Ming thieves see how powerful I am!"

Chen Dequan, the guerrilla general of the Dagukou Patrol Battalion of the Qing Army, shouted at the top of his lungs, trying to organize troops and horses for the final resistance.

The main reason why Chen Dequan is so active is because he is a banner man.

His ancestors surrendered to the Hou Jin Dynasty when they were outside the Pass, and were then incorporated into the Han Army Banner.

In the battle when the Manchus entered the Pass, almost none of his ancestors were left behind.

He can be considered a hardcore traitor!

And Ming Dynasty's methods against traitors like him were quite cruel.

Property was confiscated and punishment was often punishable by decades of hard labor.

The deafening sound of shelling sounded again, and the Qing army on the Dagukou fort also began to fight back against the Ming army on the sea.

And also installed a rear wing!

This shape can firstly increase the charge of the artillery shell, and secondly, it can effectively increase the range and stabilize the ballistic trajectory.

Boom! Boom!

However, although the Qing army's bombardment was weak, the Ming army's bombardment was unambiguous.

Although the detonation method of the cannonball is still a wooden tube delay fuse, the shape of the cannonball has been changed from a spherical shape to a pointed cylinder.

The shock wave can even completely tear the bodies of Qing soldiers into pieces.

For now, the practicality of this new type of artillery shell is still good.

Cannonballs flew horizontally and towards the entrance of Dagu.

Apart from causing damage to the fish in the sea, the Qing army's shelling had no other effect.

The threat to the Ming army is almost zero!

Faced with the sudden invasion of the Ming army, although he was panicked, he still ordered his troops to fight back.

However, as the fort opened fire, Chen Dequan gradually realized a very serious problem.

Therefore, he could only follow the path of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties to the dark side.

That is, the Qing army's artillery range cannot reach the Ming army's fleet!

The cannonballs they fired often only flew halfway before their kinetic energy was exhausted and they fell into the sea water.

The artillery shells currently used by the Ming army are also new types of artillery shells.

Boom! Boom!

Solid artillery shells were thrown in the direction of the Ming army fleet.

boom! Boom boom!

Chen Dequan really couldn't bear this kind of liquidation.

Water columns shot out one after another, and mist filled the sea.

He believed that based on the strength of the Dagukou Fortress, he would be able to hold on to Dagukou until the imperial court sent reinforcements.

The shell exploded with a loud bang when it hit the ground, and a large amount of smoke and fragments swept around.

But that's about it.

Artillery shells hit the Qing army fortress at Dagukou one after another.

The explosion made a rumble.

Yu Laoqi commanded his men to quickly load the artillery and then ignite it.

With a bang, the shells came out of the barrel, and the entire fort was visibly shaken by the recoil.

Thick smoke filled the entire fort!

Choking, Yu Laoqi and others kept coughing, but they did not stop what they were doing. They continued to load the artillery and prepare for launch.

At this moment, Yu Laoqi felt a strong wind whistling in his ears.

A cannonball grazed his body and slammed into the inside of the fort.

The strong wind brought by the passing cannonball directly blew Yu Laoqi away.

But before he could get up from the ground.

There was a roar inside the entire fort.

The cannonball just exploded directly after landing, and violent air waves swept everything around.

The fire ignited the gunpowder stored inside the fort.

Immediately, a large-scale explosion occurred.

Violent fire shot into the sky, and along with it, a large number of broken limbs and arms were also lifted into the sky.

Even the cannon, which weighed several thousand kilograms, was blown over and severely deformed.

At this moment, there were no more screams in the fort.

The entire Dagukou Fortress couldn't help but be stranded. Immediately, the Ming army began to attack Dagukou under the cover of naval gun fire.

"kill!"

"Wan Sheng!"

"The Ming Dynasty will be victorious!"

"Drive out the Tartars and restore China!"

"..."

The Ming army's landing troops were full of morale and rowed their boats towards Dagukou.

Seeing this, the Qing army stopped carrying out meaningless bombardments against the Ming army's fleet.

Instead, they began to aim their artillery at the Ming army's landing troops on the sea, and began to pour out firepower.

Boom! Boom!

The sound of shelling resounded, and shells flew freely.

From time to time, the Ming Army's landing craft was hit by artillery shells. As pieces of wood flew, the Ming Army's landing troops screamed and fell into the sea.

A Ming soldier was stabbed all over by broken pieces of wood and was bleeding profusely.

As soon as he fell into the sea water, the sea water was dyed red.

"Save people! Save people quickly!"

"Hygienist?! Where is the hygienist?!"

"Hurry up!"

"..."

Under the Qing army's artillery blockage, the Ming army's landing troops paid a heavy price in casualties.

However, the capital is right in front of you!

The final battle to restore the Ming Dynasty was imminent, and the morale of the Ming army was boiling like boiling oil, and they were all holding their breath.

Such sporadic casualties cannot hinder their offensive.

Countless soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were still shouting to kill and charging forward.

"Kill! Kill!"

"The Ming Dynasty will be victorious!"

"Drive out the Tartars and restore China!"

"..."

Soon, a landing craft from the Ming Army rushed to the beach.

The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty immediately turned over and disembarked from the boat, then formed a formation and rushed towards the Dagukou Fort.

At the same time, the Ming army's naval guns continued to pour out firepower, suppressing and destroying the Qing army's gun emplacements as much as possible, and clearing the way for the Ming army's landing troops to launch an attack.

The fighting became more and more intense. The Ming army that landed on the beach was immediately shelled by the Qing army, leaving corpses everywhere.

There were also several gun emplacements on the Qing army's fort, which were destroyed under the concentrated fire of the Ming army!

For a time, the battle situation fell into anxiety.

As time went by, more and more Ming troops completed the landing.

And they began to form a skirmish formation and charge against the fort at Dagukou in front of them.

"kill!"

"Wan Sheng!"

"Brothers, follow me!"

"..."

Amid the shouts of killing, the Ming army quickly approached.

The Qing troops in the fort also stuck their heads out and raised their guns to shoot at the charging Ming troops.

Snapped! Bang bang!

For a moment, there was a loud sound of fierce musket shooting.

Each artillery piece was also replaced with shotgun shells, aiming at the Ming army and firing.

Dense projectiles were fired at the charging Ming army.

In the next moment, one famous soldier fell down on the other side of the charge.

Although they launched the attack as a skirmisher line, under the fire blockade of the Qing army, there would still be casualties.
