Chapter 512: The Xishan Army is about to collapse at one touch

Although Deng Fei's words were loud and loud, He Xiwen was still a little worried. But it didn't matter. After the conversation, Wang Yuanfang immediately arranged a firepower display.

When He Xiwen and his men saw that the mortar was only as thick as an arm, they could hit seven or eight miles away, they were stunned and then overjoyed. When they saw the heavy machine gun set on the deck of Thor, they instantly smashed a small sampan a thousand meters away into pieces, and the little worry in their hearts disappeared.

Two days later, at 8:48 on November 26, 1790, when the Guanxunkou was at its maximum tide, the North Navy attacking force, led by Wang Yuanfang, took twenty simply reinforced large fishing boats and entered the entrance of the Xiangjiang River. Behind them was a Guangnan army fleet composed of fifteen large and small ships led by He Xiwen.

In fact, the so-called simple reinforcement is just a pile of sandbags on the bow and deck, mainly because of concern that machine guns and mortars will damage the keel and the board. In addition, He Xiwen, as a participant in this military operation, supported 100 sailors and was responsible for manipulating the large-shoulder ship of the North Navy.

The appearance of large fishing boats and cargo ships in ancient Chinese sailing boats was actually not much different, mainly because the shape of the cabins was different; cargo ships were all-cabins and fishing boat compartments.

The tail boat is also called the "big tail gear" along the coast of Guangdong. It has three hard sails on a total of three sides, and the tail sail can be used for "reversing". From the side, this kind of ship is actually a wide ship, with both ends high, the middle is low, and the stern is higher than the bow. The purpose of this is to save space in the superstructure and reduce the wind-receiving area of ​​the ship during navigation.

Not long after the fleet entered Xiangjiang from the lagoon, the river began to narrow, and the large number of shipwrecks set up by the Xishan Army blocked the way. The masts on the shipwreck were exposed on the water surface, and a large area was densely packed. Not far away, two iron chains were even pulled. At this time, the role of He Xiwen and his horse appeared, and he immediately sent his subordinates to help salvage the shipwreck.

There is no such thing as a float in this year. It is all sent to block the holes at the bottom of the wreck, then unload the ballast stones in the cabin, and then drag them away by the large ship.

At the beginning, there was nothing wrong. After the fleet spent almost two hours passing the first block, hundreds of Xishan soldiers hidden in the dense forest on the south bank of the Xiangjiang River knew that something was wrong, so they began to fire cold guns at the fleet on the river surface, and several small copper cannons were dragged to the river bank.

The shooting level of the musketeers of the Xishan Army was very poor. If they were really elite, they would not have fought with Nguyen Phuc Ying for so many years, let alone being suppressed by the Guangdong-Guangdong Green Camp. These musketeers were equipped with coercion guns and a small number of flintlock guns, many of which were "sponsored" by the Qing Dynasty.

In the Battle of Fuliangjiang at the beginning of last year, Ruan Guangping led a hundred thousand troops to launch a surprise attack in five groups, surrounding the unprepared Qing army's Hehui camp and loudly persuaded surrender with a loud horn. The Qing army was shocked and then surrendered, and all the military supplies and equipment were captured by the Xishan Army. When Sun Shiyi fled back to Zhennan Pass, he contained the remnants and found that almost all the food, grass and weapons had been lost. More than 20,000 officers and soldiers only escaped a small half.

With the "Logistics Captain" of the Qing Dynasty, the overall equipment level of the Xishan Army was immediately improved.

When the soldiers wearing blue hats and barefoots started shooting at the fleet, Wang Yuanfang immediately ordered the machine guns on the ship to fire and fight back. Since he learned the truth about the "Jiading Massacre", he became extremely hated to the Xishan Army.

At the regular shooting of PKMs on several boats, dozens of people were killed on the spot by the Xishan Army on the shore. The gunners who were about to fire were frightened and threw down the cannons, turned around and fled in a hurry to the forest.

He Xiwen's men stared at the Xishan Army on the shore in amazement and were defeated by the North Navy's quick guns. Then they started shouting happily, and some ships even started to beat drums and waving flags.

For a moment, gunfire, excitement of the crowd, drums and music mixed together, and the scene was so noisy.

After cleaning up the shipwreck, things like the iron chain Hengjiang were naturally much simpler. I saw a North Navy sitting on the charge boat holding a grinding wheel saw, putting on sunglasses and starting to cut. Sparks were sparkling, and the thick iron chain was quickly sawed off. This scene made He Xiwen, who was holding a telescope to explore the clues, stunning.

The more means and the stronger the combat power of the North Navy, the happier He Xiwen and his generals were. Many people have begun to consider how much money they can plunder after entering the city.

Compared with the Nguyen Phoe Ying army, which could only pay rice as military pay, the Xishan army, which occupied 90% of Annan, was quite rich, and was better treated than the green camp soldiers in the Qing Dynasty. The Xishan court required men aged 18 to 60 to pay 11 Spanish silver coins every year, basically one person raised one soldier. The military pay for ordinary soldiers was a scoop of money, a bucket of rice, a little fish sauce and a certain amount of cotton cloth, which was enough to support a family of several people.

Because Ruan Guangping's empress, prince, and grand tutor Pei Dexuan and others had received the order to retreat to Nye'an, the current leaders of the defenders of Hue City are Wu Wenyong, general of the Xishan Dynasty, and Ruan Wenhe, Minister of Works.

When he learned that the enemy troops entering the Xiangjiang River channel were only 2,000, Wu Wenyong and Ruan Wenhe couldn't help but scold their opponent for being rampant and had to teach the North Navy a lesson.

After entering the plains, Xiangjiang River, which originated from the Changshan Mountains, entered a "S"-shaped bend from south to north, and then led to the sea. The target of the Northern Navy's attack this time, Hue City, is located on the northwest side of the river channel below the "S" shape, and Chengtian Mansion is on the other side of the river.

Since the North Navy's "giant cannon" has not fired these days, the self-righteous Wu Wenyong, Ruan Wenhe and others guessed that it was either broken or insufficient shells. You should know that in the first few days, the Thunder God had to shoot dozens of shells on two D30s on the Thunder City. So in these days, the Xishan Army secretly returned to Hue City while the night was dark. After all, it was a place in the capital and could not give up easily.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wu Wenyong dared not let thousands of soldiers enter the city to defend at one time. What if the Beihai Army cheated? He let five hundred people enter the city every day. After three days, he saw that the giant cannons on the sea were no longer moving, so he felt relieved to send another 4,000 people in. Little did he know that Deng Fei and Wang Yuanfang were waiting for the Xishan Army to do this!

When Wu Wenyong learned from the whistle detective that the North Navy sent a fleet into Xiangjiang, he immediately understood that the other party was going to attack the capital. After discussing with Ruan Wenhe and others, Wu Wenyong first sent a small group of troops to harass the other party's fleet, and then divided the five thousand soldiers hidden in Juzhengshan and Pengshan into two parts, one entered Chengtian Mansion on the south bank of the Xiangjiang River, and the other was hidden near Zhenhaitai Fortress in the north of the city.

He planned to wait for the enemy's fleet to pass through the water of Zhenhaitai, and quickly cut off the Xiangjiang River channel. Then, through the attack of two troops in the city and on the other side, forcing the enemy to be unable to attack the city smoothly. If the attack cannot be reached, the retreat route will be blocked. At that time, the enemy will have to abandon the ship and flee into Chengtian Mansion on the south bank. Then, Ruan Wenhe will lead the remaining troops and thousands of troops stationed in Xiangshui County from all over Guangnan to launch an attack, completely annihilated the enemy in the plains with rivers.

The problem is that these people thought it was beautiful, but they did not expect that the North Navy's firepower was too strong, and there were quite a lot of weird things.

First, the harassing troops were defeated as soon as they met, and then the two iron ropes of Hengjiang were easily broken by the North Navy in just one stick of incense. Just when Wu Wenyong, Ruan Wenhe and others had no time to react, the North Navy landed and launched artillery bombardment two kilometers north of Zhenhaitai. At the same time, the cannons on the Thor also rang out again.

At this moment, after nearly a thousand people were killed and injured by the bomb, the Xishan Army in the city did not need to chase the Northern Hai Army and He Xiwen's troops. They immediately opened several city gates to the west and began a large fleeing.

After using a mortar to repel the defenders near the north gate, the people from the special operations camp used anchor hook launchers to climb the city wall and then opened the city gate. He Xiwen, who had been a spectator, finally raised his arms and rushed into the city with more than a thousand people holding big swords and spears. Accompanied by gunfire, the angry shouts of "Nuosong Kongye" were heard everywhere in the city, and the defeated soldiers of the Xishan Army who took advantage of the fire knelt down and begged for mercy.

Fortunately, Wang Yuanfang and He Xiwen repeatedly emphasized before leaving that after entering the city, he must control the city gates and do not rob. He Xiwen, who was willing to surrender, also ordered his subordinates to be punished, and those who dared not obey the orders would be killed. So the pirates divided into a group of hundreds of people, followed the North Navy and slashed all the city gates, quickly controlling the city gates.

Of course, there are also people who rob money from prisoners when people are not paying attention.

When a company of the Special Operations Battalion occupied the city wall to the west, it found that the wilderness was full of defeated soldiers from the Xishan Army, and then called the Thunder God through a high-powered hand platform.

Okay, the defeated soldiers of the Xishan Army, who had just crossed the moat, were about to take a breath, suddenly fell into hell. Each explosion could sweep away hundreds of lives. The remaining defeated soldiers cried and shouted at Juzheng Mountain in the west, fleeing towards Juzheng Mountain to the west.

At this time, the Xishan Army on the south bank of the Xiangjiang River was in chaos, and no one cared about the escape and beheading at this time. Even the generals took the lead in running. Wu Wenyong and Ruan Wenhe realized at this time that the Northern Navy was not only fierce at sea, but also had many times more powerful than the Qing soldiers who led the country.

Escape!

At noon, when he saw that Hue City had been completely controlled by his side, He Xiwen, who was overjoyed, was about to send someone to the sea to inform the rest of his subordinates. Wang Yuanfang, who found him, immediately stopped him and said, "No need, your people have already set off."

"Ah?" He Xiwen's face darkened, thinking that I hadn't given the order yet, who was so brave to make his own decisions?

Wang Yuanfang pointed to the hands on the soldiers of the Special Operations Battalion and said, "Don't be nervous, we're notifying you."

He Xiwen was not sure about this, and when he heard someone talking in the soldier's hand table, he said in surprise: "This is the wind?"

Wang Yuanfang smiled and patted his shoulder, interrupting: "Go and go into the palace to take a look."

"Why!"

The early Hue belonged to the Champo Kingdom and was later seized by the Nguyen tribe. It became the ruling center of the Nguyen tribe during the Zheng Ruan dispute. Since 160 years ago, the Nguyen tribe established the "Golden Dragon City" here as its capital, and then expanded it for two generations and renamed it "Fu Chun".

The main hall in the imperial city is called "Jinhua Hall", which has been blown up by cannons on the Thunder God; in addition, the Guanghua Hall, Chaoyang Pavilion has also suffered varying degrees of damage.

When He Xiwen saw several halls that were blown up, he couldn't help but secretly smacked his tongue. He thought that this place must be twenty or thirty miles away from the Thunder God, and could be hit even at such a distance. Who in the world is still the enemy of the Northern Navy?

Thinking of this, his eyes at Wang Yuanfang became more respectful, and he didn't even dare to breathe.

When he took the people to the "Jule Palace" behind the palace, Wang Yuanfang's face looked even more disdainful, thinking that this could be called the palace? What a fucking group of local buns who had never seen the market.

He pointed to the so-called "throne" in the hall and said to He Xiwen: "Are you interested in sitting?"

He Xiwen was startled, and knelt down with a "thump" sound, and said with a tremolo, "You can't do it! You can't do it! General Wang must not joke."

Wang Yuanfang laughed and said, "Brother He, you're thinking too much! The North Hai Army has no such rules!" After that, he pulled the other party up and pulled it into the hall.

He Xiwen wanted to break free, but Wang Yuanfang's hand was like an iron plier and had great strength. When he reached the "throne", Wang Yuanfang pulled and pushed, and "throwed" He Xiwen onto the chair.

"How is it? How does it feel?"

"Hehe, hehe~~" After experiencing the initial panic, He Xiwen saw that there was no joking look on Wang Yuanfang's face, so he touched and looked, grinning and laughing, and his beard shook.

"What kind of palace is far worse than Yonghe Palace!" Wang Yuanfang looked around, with a look of disdain on his face.

He Xiwen stood up and said, "General Wang, how dare you ask where is Yonghe Palace?"

"Oh. Qianlong's father was the royal palace before Yongzheng, and later changed to the Lama Temple."

After hearing this, He Xiwen almost popped out his eyes, and sweated coldly on the back of his neck, thinking to himself, who are these people! Just this, what's the one in the room is not a good thing?

For him, being able to enter the Hue Palace was already the peak of his life. As for the royal palace of the Qing Dynasty, it was something he could not even dare to think about.

Wang Yuanfang seemed to see He Xiwen's thoughts and laughed: "What's this? I'll take you in to visit when I'm going to capture the Forbidden City in the future. By the way! And the Old Summer Palace!"

Ah?! He Xiwen and his subordinates were stunned and stood there on the spot.

At this time, at the entrance of the Jinhua Hall of the Imperial Palace, Zhao Xin, dressed in modern costumes, squatted in front of the ruins for a while, then began to sigh and almost beat his chest and stamp his feet.

"What a fucking prodigal son! Who did this? These are all the best golden nanmu! And this, this, sandalwood, yellow rosewood..."

As Zhao Xin spoke unconsciously, he finally alarmed others. A guy wearing the old Ruan Wu general's costume and a silver hat on his head emerged from the corner and pointed a knife at Zhao Xin's back and shouted.
