1156, Linhe City in Flames

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Zhang Wudi did not expect that the efficiency of this kind of rocket launch would be so high. Five thousand rockets were fired in less than two quarters of an hour. Until now, the Mongolians are still confused. They have no idea what happened.

At this time, the city was already in flames.

The climate here is dry and it is easy to catch fire. With the incendiary agents such as aluminum powder and white phosphorus added to the rockets, it burned into a sea of ​​​​fire. Some napalm warheads exerted extremely terrifying power.

Just a little bit of it will turn your whole person into a torch.

Standing on the boat, you can see that the Mongols in the city are anxious. These grains and grass are prepared for the winter. They are not sure that they can capture Jiuyuan City before the weather gets cold. In wars, they worry about defeat before winning.

Mongolia, the desert country that stretches across Central Asia, is well versed in the principles of war.

In addition to the Mongolians who were killed, injured, and burned to death in the city, the others were beating the fire with branches and various instruments in an attempt to extinguish the fire. After all, these grains were all laboriously and time-consumingly collected from the Western Regions.

Unfortunately, these incendiary bombs are made of special materials. The more you hit them, the more intense the burning will be.

Especially napalm. Because of the slapping, the splashed liquid particles were ignited wherever they landed. Within a few swattings, the fire-extinguishing tools also burned violently. The fire-fighting people were frightened and quickly threw away their tools.

Just run.

Some people tried to fetch water from the well, but after a bucket of water was poured on it, the fire not only did not go out, but also exploded and burned violently, swallowing those who were fighting the fire around.

He and Duo Heqin (Batur Hutaiji) chatted fiercely about the door curtain and rushed into Father Khan's tent. He saw Hala Huci still walking back and forth at a loss.

The subordinates who kept coming in to report brought him countless bad news. He didn't know what to do at this time.

"Father, we must leave the city immediately. The fire is out of control. If the wind blows any later, the whole city will be on fire. By then, we won't be able to leave even if we want to."

Heduo Heqin was the eldest son of the leader of the Junggar, Harahu Ci. In the years to come, he would be the first Khan of the Junggar. At this time, he was already in his thirties.

His date of birth is unknown and he died in 1653. According to historical data, it is known that in the forty-fourth year of Wanli (1616), he separated from his father and settled on both sides of the Irtysh River. He had his own tribe and

territory.

In the seventh year of Chongzhen's reign, Harahu Ci died. He inherited the power of Junggar. At the same time, he was awarded the honorary title "Erdeni Batur Huitai Ji" by Lama Da Lai and took charge of the Junggar tribe.

Seeing his old father, he was still hesitating. After all, there was so much food, grass and horse feed here, and he felt a little reluctant to just give up and leave.

Seeing this, He Duo and Qin knew they could no longer hesitate. They waved their hands and their men rushed forward, lifted up their old father and left.

At this time, the wind had begun to blow. There was thick smoke and fire everywhere in the city. The group of people ran quickly towards the south gate. The streets were full of people running away and it was so crowded. At this time, everyone gave up.

Put out the fire.

It's all burnt like this, and the wind is blowing hard. How can I save it?

Heduo and Qin directly drew out their scimitars and started slashing all the way. The ruthless style of the Junggar people was immediately evident. When Heduo and Qin's guards saw this, they didn't talk nonsense and immediately picked up their long swords and slashed fiercely.

.

There were screams in front of them, and many people from the Heshuote tribe were chopped down to the ground. They fought and killed these people, generally stepping on the corpses.

The flames on the eaves next to him were blown by the wind, and the tongues of flames burned off Hala's beard. His face turned pale with fear.

"God of Immortality, what kind of evil fire is this released by the devil?" The old man trembled and murmured a prayer.

Fighting all the way, the Junggar people relied on brutality and force to finally squeeze out of the city gate.

After they ran out, many of their clothes were on fire. They immediately rolled on the spot, and their leather armors and leather robes were on fire. They couldn't put it out without rolling.

More than half of the more than 30,000 people in the city were burned to death.

Those who were left alive poured out of the three city gates like crazy.

There were also many people who couldn't get out of the city gates, so they jumped directly from the city wall. Fortunately, the city wall was only six or seven meters high. They used knives to poke into the rammed earth to cushion them, but they still didn't fall too badly.

As the wind picked up, the smell of barbecued meat drifted.

Zhang Fengyi couldn't help but vomited while holding on to the side of the boat. Huo's face turned pale when she saw it.

Uncle Dingyuan was very cruel in his wars. There have been rumors for a long time. Today I really saw it.

Zhang Wudian's face looked as usual. The old man didn't think there was anything wrong with Uncle Dingyuan.

Compassion does not govern soldiers. To be kind to the enemy on the battlefield is to be cruel to the officers and soldiers under your command.

Donglin's group has been secretly spreading rumors to smear Uncle Dingyuan, saying that he has a heart of stone and is cruel and easy to kill. Zhang Wudian disagrees with this.

Xiao Niangpi and Lin Yueru didn't think there was anything wrong with Yang Fan's behavior.

In their opinion, this is what a man should be like. The master is a real man. Those who go against the Yang family should be killed.

Yang Fan watched as the entire Linhe City was burned into a mountain of flames. As far as he could see, the city walls were filled with steaming flames and billowing black smoke. The screams of people and animals being burned were very pitiful. He also felt a little moved on his face.

"Mr. Zhang, look at what happened. I didn't expect these incendiary bombs to be so powerful. This is the first time they have been used on a large scale. I didn't expect that the whole city was set on fire. Now everyone is in flames. It's really a bit tricky.

There is peace."

Napalm bombs are so cruel and terrifying. If you don't see it with your own eyes and just read written materials, you won't have a true feeling.

Zhang Wudian stroked his beard and snorted coldly: "Huh! When these Wala people used long swords to kill our Ming Dynasty capital camp in Tumubao, they didn't show any mercy. Today, Uncle Dingyuan burned and killed them, and they also

You can’t blame others.”

At this time, although the rockets had been fired, the smoke trails were still in the sky. Even a fool looked up at the sky and knew where these rockets came from.

The seven or eight thousand desert Mongolian warriors who escaped from the city looked at the long boat parked in the center of the Yellow River with grief and anger, and roared at the top of their lungs.

.

They show off their power in the Western Regions, north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, and in Central Asia.

They have always been the only ones who bully others, rob others, and take other people's wives, daughters, cattle and sheep. They have suffered such humiliation. They burned their cities with fire while they were sleeping.

At this time, it was no longer possible to go into the city to put out the fire. We could only wait for the fire to burn everything that could be burned and then extinguish itself.

They didn't plan to put out the fire, and they didn't save the wounded either. They were burned to death. They were so black that they probably wouldn't come back, so they simply chopped off their heads with a knife to end their suffering.

They were so angry that they were trembling all over, gnashing their teeth, and brought in matchlock guns, camel cannons from the camp outside the city, and large and small Franco machine cannons.

The cavalrymen rushed up on foot, holding the infantry's big bows.

Along the river, they started shooting at the damn boat.

Seeing that the Junggar people were going crazy, people from the other three divisions were also coming. Vulcan guns, lead bullets, and bows and arrows were flying over. Yang Fan decided that it would be safer to go inside the ship.

"Mr. Zhang, let's go back to the cab. The cab is surrounded by steel plates, which is safer." Yang Fan quickly took Zhang Wudi and his family back to the cab.

As they entered, a group of soldiers rushed out.

They carried ammunition boxes and climbed onto the six-barreled 30mm Gatling gun rotating platforms on both sides of the platform. Heavy machine guns and cannons used by the Navy generally have a rotating platform made of steel plates and bulletproof shields.

.There are seats for the shooter and ammunition hand.

It can drive the platform to rotate and control the pitch and shooting angle of the cannon.

As soon as Yang Fan and his group entered the cab and closed the door, several carved feather arrows hit the glass.

The porthole glass of these ships is installed with bullet-proof glass imported from modern times. The initial velocity of the bow and arrow is so low that it bounces off without even leaving a white spot.

Just then, the Gatling gun fired.
