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

Chapter 350 Conquering Dagukou

The sound of artillery outside the mouth of Dagu kept ringing!

One after another, like rain, artillery shells fell one after another on the Qing army's coastal defense fortress at Dagu Port.

Under the firepower of the Ming army's explosive shells, the artillery in the Qing army's coastal defense fortress was being destroyed one after another.

The deafening sound of heavy artillery bombardment resounded through the sky!

The explosion sound after the bomb hits the ground and the explosive sound produced by the ignited gunpowder complement each other and are continuous.

Immediately, under the cover of a salvo of naval guns, the Ming army's landing troops rushed into the Qing army's coastal defense fortress despite a hail of bullets.

And facing the Qing army in front of him, he launched a bayonet charge without any hesitation!

In an instant, the Qing army began to collapse while engaging in hand-to-hand combat with the Ming army.

The Qing army in Dagukou still has the same old problem!

Don't dare to fight!

They had the courage to fire at the Ming army's naval guns at a long distance.

But once the Ming army launched a bayonet charge, the Qing army would be unable to withstand it.

Under his watchful eye, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty successfully captured Dagukou.

"Send the order and let the main force of our army prepare for the landing!"

Like ordinary Qing soldiers, they began to run away in confusion.

Seeing this, the morale of the soldiers around him collapsed instantly.

"Brothers, follow me and kill!"

In an instant, the two sides collided and fought together!

Accompanied by several gunshots, Chen Dequan, who rushed to the front and tried to lead the way to boost the morale of his soldiers, was shot dead by Ming army musketeers.

As more and more Ming soldiers poured into the Dagukou Fortress, the fall of Dagukou was a foregone conclusion.

……

The red flag seems to symbolize the rebirth of the Ming Dynasty!

Zhu Jing'an withdrew his gaze from the direction of Dagokou and immediately spoke.

Chen Dequan roared at the top of his lungs, and with his beaten soldiers, he rushed towards the Ming army who rushed forward with bayonets in hand.

Soon, there were many bodies falling forward on the battlefield.

It collapsed in an instant!

The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, holding their muskets with bayonets in their hands, quickly pursued the defeated soldiers of the Qing army.

"After killing the Ming thieves, I will report to the Emperor and raise the flag for all of you!"

Someone kept stabbing sharp bayonets into the backs of Chen Dequan's soldiers.

The Qing-character flag flying over Dagukou was lowered, and soon the Ming-character flag was flying high.

When the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty saw this, they were not polite and began to pursue them with their swords and guns.

The smell of blood and gunpowder smoke mixed in the air was quite pungent.

The bullet penetrated his skull and opened his Tianling Cap. His brain was mixed with blood and splashed everywhere.

Chen Dequan's eyes widened, and his body immediately fell to the ground.

Zhu Jing'an stood on the deck of his ship "Zheng He" and looked at Dagukou in the distance.

Chen Dequan attempted to lead his own soldiers to block the Ming army.

"And after completing the landing, launch an attack on Tianjin!"

Zhu Jing'an's military order was issued, and Zhang He immediately went to deliver the order with his fists clasped.

Soon, as the flag on the ship changed, all departments of the Ming Army received military orders and began to respond in accordance with the military orders.

……

The Ming army crossed the sea and raided Dagukou. News of the immediate fall of Dagukou spread quickly to Tianjin Fucheng as if it had wings.

Shen Yunhe, the prefect of Tianjin, panicked the moment he received the news and hurriedly summoned Fu Chang'an, the newly appointed Tianjin commander-in-chief of the Qing court, to come to the government office to discuss the matter.

Even just by looking at his name, Fu Changan could tell that he was from the Fucha family.

This person is Fu Heng's youngest son and Fu Kang'an's fourth brother.

After Yonglin led his troops to move to Shanxi, the Fucha family in the capital took refuge with Yongrong.

Yong Rong bought horse bones for a thousand gold, and in order to win over the old officials of Qianlong in the court, he also accepted the support of the Fu Cha family.

Fu Chang'an was assigned to be the commander-in-chief of Tianjin, leading 10,000 troops and responsible for Tianjin's coastal defense.

Now that the Qing government has lost most of the world, the only areas it can still control are Zhili and Liaodong. For the Qing court at this time, the importance of a powerful military commander with military power was self-evident.

Its weight is not even lower than that of the governor of a province in the past when the world was at peace!

Being able to give Fu Chang'an such a position also shows that Yong Rong attaches great importance to the Fu Cha family.

Well, the reason why Yong Rong did this was actually to win over the Fucha family.

Soon, Fu Changan arrived at the Tianjin government office.

Shen Yunhe walked a few steps quickly, stepped forward and said.

"Commander Fu, you are finally here!"

"I'm almost dying of anxiety!"

Fu Changan frowned when he heard this.

"Master Shen, why are you so anxious? But what happened?"

Shen Yunhe Wen Yan opened his mouth to explain with a serious look on his face.

"Commander Fu is unaware of something. I have just received an urgent report from Dagukou. Ming thieves crossed the sea and raided Dagukou. Dagukou has been captured."

"And now, after completing the landing, the Ming thief is advancing towards Tianjin. I suspect that the Ming thief's target is the capital!"

Hearing this, Fu Changan was shocked at first, and then he reacted and couldn't help but open his mouth.

"This...now we're going to be in trouble!"

"It's troublesome!"

Because he is able to realize the seriousness of the matter.

Now all parties in the Qing Dynasty have gathered heavy troops in Baoding Mansion and are fighting fiercely.

Once Ming thieves took advantage of this situation and attacked the capital, the Qing Dynasty would be in big trouble!

It is not an exaggeration to say that the country will be destroyed in the blink of an eye!

Taking a deep breath, Fu Changan spoke.

"Master Shen immediately sent a message to the capital to request the capital to end the civil war and dispatch reinforcements from Baoding to support the war in Tianjin."

"General Mo will set up defenses right now!"

"I hope Tianjin can survive the Ming thieves' attack and hold on until the court's reinforcements arrive..."

Fu Changan has even made up his mind to die.

He knew that the only choice before him now was to defend Tianjin.

Until the capital sends reinforcements!

Shen Yun and Wen Yan also looked solemn, but in the end he nodded.

"As of now, that's all we can do!"

After finishing speaking, Shen Yunhe spoke with a serious expression.

"The life and death of our bannermen has reached the final moment..."

"If we are defeated again, we, the Qing Dynasty, will have no choice but to retreat outside the pass."

Fu Changan on the side also had a bitter look on his face.

"If we had known this earlier, why would the Qing Dynasty have entered the Pass?"

……

The horse that reported the news galloped all the way out from the west gate of Tianjin and headed straight for the capital.

Horse hooves passed by, raising a cloud of smoke.

At the same time, news that the Ming army was approaching Dagokou and about to attack Tianjin also spread in Tianjin Fucheng.

Some are happy and some are worried!

All sentient beings are different but the same.

The wealthy gentry in Fucheng began to communicate with each other in private, and they didn't know what they were discussing.

The ordinary people in the city began to flee Tianjin, a place of right and wrong, dragging their families with them.

They wanted to wait until the war subsided before returning to their hometown.
