"Boom boom boom..."

The artillery continued to pour shells on the pirates' artillery positions. read

The pirates on the battlefield were so frightened that they could only lie on the ground, unable to fight back at all.

At this moment, another pirate shouted, "Sir Yamada, there are soldiers leaving the city."

Yamada looked around and saw many Yanzhou soldiers wearing scale armor and holding muskets coming out of the south and north gates.

Immediately, these soldiers formed a tight horizontal column and approached them, with a strong tendency to surround them.

This scene made Yamada immediately overjoyed.

These soldiers of King Yan could not leave the city, and they had no choice.

But they are not afraid of going out to the city and fighting them head-on.

Dasong's army was defeated by them time and time again in hand-to-hand combat.

"court death!"

He immediately ordered the soldiers with matchlocks in the team to line up.

Under his order, more than two thousand arquebusiers formed five hollow squares.

But the soldiers were sparsely separated from each other.

This is their experience. When the matchlock is fired, the flames and smoke are very strong, and it is easy to ignite the matchlock of the soldiers next door.

The pirate holding a sword stood in the middle of the phalanx.

They will look for opportunities to rush towards the enemy and engage in hand-to-hand combat.

"Kill them!"

"come!"

"..."

The pirates waved their swords and shouted again.

On the city wall, Bai Shang saw everything in his eyes, and the smile on his lips became wider.

He admired King Yan more and more, and he clearly explained the characteristics of the matchlock formation.

Such a sparse formation is no match for the tight formation of the royal family's troops.

What's more, these pirates don't have any protection, just a thin layer of clothing.

Looking at the pirate artillerymen who were suppressed by the city's artillery and unable to fire at the palace soldiers, he smiled again.

Pingcheng, Guan County.

At this time, a fleet of boats was moving slowly in the Haihe River.

When the people on the river bank saw it, they just looked at it and went about their own business.

For them, these fleets have long been accustomed to it.

After all, merchants from all over the world came to the palace to sell goods.

There are many merchant ships coming from the sea, such as forty merchant ships in a row.

At this moment, Black Mountain stands on the bow of the ship.

The flag of Wufeng Island was removed from the mast and replaced with an ordinary business flag.

Looking at a crew member next to him, he asked: "How long will it take to reach Pingcheng?"

This pirate was from Yanzhou and was very familiar with Yanzhou, so he became the fleet guide.

"Back to the deputy island owner, this is the boundary of Guan County. We can reach it in one day's journey." The crew member looked at the shore, looking for familiar geographical signs.

Heishan nodded solemnly, lowered his head and looked at the sliding oars on the bottom of the boat. He secretly prayed in his heart that this sneak attack on Pingcheng Shipyard would be successful.

Although the Liang family gave them a lot of money for this matter.

But even if it wasn't for the money, the island owner Lu Zheng was willing to destroy the warships that King Yan was building.

For them, this ocean can belong to Japan, to France, or to Britain, but it must not be touched by Dasong, especially a prince of Dasong.

If it weren't for the fact that a window like the Liang family was needed to buy and sell Dasong goods.

They would not even allow the Liang family's ships to enter the sea.

In addition, this sneak attack was also mixed with anger.

He was angry that King Yan had sold a large number of artillery pieces to the Liang family.

The Liang family dared to show their teeth to them, demanding to reduce tolls and raise the price of goods.

But it won't be long before the Liang family will pay a heavy price.

They will make the Liang family understand their position on the ocean.

After looking around and admiring the scenery for a while, he went down to the cabin where the crew was gambling.

After playing a few games, he urged the crew to go back to sleep and recharge their batteries for tomorrow's sneak attack.

Outside Jinghai City.

The soldiers of the royal palace kept squeezing the space of the pirates.

The generals who followed the army marched against the hollow phalanx of the pirates.

This surprised them slightly. They didn't expect that the pirates also knew this tactic.

But even so, they are still confident of victory.

"Bang bang bang..."

When they were a hundred meters apart, the pirates shot at the royal soldiers.

Some soldiers in the front row were hit and fell to the ground.

The soldier behind him immediately took a quick step forward to fill the injured soldier's position.

The speed of the team's march forward did not slow down at all.

"Fire at fifty meters!" a captain in the queue shouted to his soldiers.

Although they can shoot enemies from a hundred meters away.

King Yan told them that at a distance of fifty meters, the flintlock gun could ensure greater accuracy and cause greater casualties to the enemy.

The huge casualty rate can even defeat the enemy in one wave.

However, shooting at each other at a position of 100 meters will only consume each other, and our own losses will be greater.

However, shooting at 50 meters requires suffering casualties in the early stage, which requires soldiers and generals to stay calm.

"God bless you." A soldier in the team stared at the pirates and muttered something.

He was afraid, but still mustered up the courage to move forward steadily.

Now they faced the bullets of the pirates.

In the future, we will have to face the bows and arrows of Beidi and Xiliang.

He has the consciousness of being injured or dead.

He cannot retreat during the war, otherwise his parents, brothers and sisters will be the ones who suffer.

Military generals often tell them about the current urgent situation.

Xiliang and Beidi formed an alliance, and the war in Yanshan rose again.

The foreign tribes are eyeing Yanzhou and cannot allow them to relax.

"Bang bang bang..."

After dozens of breaths, the pirate's musket continued to emit huge flames and thick smoke.

The smoke of gunpowder drifted in the wind, and the battlefield was like a layer of mist, with the smell of gunpowder permeating it.

More than a hundred soldiers fell down. They walked another seven or eight meters and stopped.

At this time, they saw the pirates loading ammunition.

"Raise your guns!" the general in the queue ordered.

The soldiers immediately raised their flintlocks and aimed at the pirates.

The smile on Yamada Kazuo's face disappeared at this time.

They had just caused casualties to Yanzhou soldiers.

Now it was their turn to suffer casualties.

But he obviously didn't want to be a target for Yanzhou soldiers.

In his opinion, these Yanzhou soldiers were quite stupid.

He didn't shoot from a position of more than a hundred steps, and came so close.

Now they don't need to shoot each other, just charge and fight hand-to-hand.

"kill!"

He raised his long knife and shouted.

The pirates in the phalanx immediately rushed out.

"Let go!" At this moment, the royal generals ordered.

"Bang bang bang..." The flintlock gun spit out tongues of fire.

In an instant, the pirates fell like harvested wheat.

Under attack from the north and south, nearly 600 people fell to the ground.

"Second row, let go!"

"Bang bang bang..." Gunshots started again.

Another five to six hundred pirates fell, and then the third row fired.

While shooting, more than a hundred pirates rushed to the front of the formation.

But at this moment, the soldiers in the front row suddenly dispersed and ran back.

Seeing that they could rush into the soldiers immediately, the pirates howled and pretended to be brave.

Seeing this change suddenly, they thought that the Yanzhou soldiers had retreated, so they still pursued them.

But the soldiers in the first array disappeared from the gaps in the array, and they were desperate.

Behind the first array there is a second array.

At this moment, all the soldiers in the array pointed their muskets at them.

"Bang bang bang..." After three more rounds of continuous shooting, all the pirates fell into a pool of blood.

Kill the attacking pirates and the queue continues to move forward.

The original soldiers of the first array had already formed up behind the second array and were walking forward.

The huge casualties stunned Yamada Kazuno and the pirates.

At this moment, an emotion they had rarely experienced spread in their hearts, which was fear.

"Bang bang bang..." The Yanzhou soldiers' attacks continued.

The pirates were in complete chaos. He no longer obeyed the command, but blindly rushed left and right. Most of the remaining pirates fled directly to the coast.

However, when Yanzhou soldiers were marching, they formed a faint encirclement. At this time, they immediately tightened their pockets and trapped the pirates.

"kill!"

"kill!"

Surrounded by Yanzhou soldiers, Yamada Kazuo raised his long knife and slashed at the soldiers' flintlock guns wildly, looking crazy.

A school captain noticed that this man seemed to be the leader of the pirates, so he refused to let the soldiers shoot.

Seeing Yamada Kazuo constantly swinging his knife, trying to kill the soldiers.

He drew out the sword from his waist with a loud sound, and knocked down Yamada Kazuno's sword with one move.

Then he slashed his calf.

"Take it!" shouted the captain.

The soldiers immediately pushed Yamada Kazuno to the ground and beat him all over his head and face.

On the city wall, Bai Shang witnessed the entire battle through a telescope.

This time the three thousand soldiers were divided into two arrays.

There are three rows of soldiers in each array, so the array is actually a tactic.

The soldiers in the first formation immediately changed into the second formation when faced with hand-to-hand combat, allowing the original second formation to continue shooting.

If there are more troops, there can even be a third formation and a fourth formation, so as to retreat while fighting to avoid hand-to-hand combat with the enemy and take advantage of the flintlock rifle.

Shaking his head slightly, he smiled contemptuously at the pirate.

"I just said you messed with the wrong person." Bai Shang got off the city wall and walked out of the city.
