The first sixty-four chapters are as old as ever
Although this cannon was extremely accurate and caught off guard, the tragic speed of the cannon has saved Yang Feng this year.
Seven hundred meters distance.
It took at least two seconds from the cannonball to the point of hitting him. Yang Feng's vision and Xiaoqian's high-speed calculations determined that the ballistic was only 0.00 seconds, because it was just a small six-pound cannon. His Majesty the Emperor simply picked up the giant axe that was standing upright on the side, and roared like crazy. He sideways and swept forward while avoiding the ballistic. With the loud noise of metal hit, the huge force of the cannonball being attacked at high speed by the 800-pound axe was instantly smashed into pieces, and flew out towards the river like a shotgun.
The good servant of the Qing Dynasty, Gong Dingzi, who was deeply attached to the times of the lord, saints and wise men, shouldered all the hopes of the gentry in the world, hugged his head and let out a desperate sad.
The sound was so heartbreaking.
"Open fire!"
At the same time, Yang Feng roared with a giant axe in his hand as he was petrified by the Dutch people on the three armed merchant ships.
The roar of the cannon suddenly rang.
All the artillery on the Ming army cannons on the entire river surface spewed flames almost at the same time, and were pulled by the iron ropes that fixed them in the fierce back seat. Then, the hull was pulled up violently, and at the same time, dense shells hit the starboard side of the three armed merchant ships. The nine-pound cannons barely exceeded the terrifying initial speed of sound, allowing those solid bombs to penetrate the much weaker wooden boards of the armed merchant ships, which were much weaker than the warships. After this round of volleys alone, the three armed merchant ships were covered with scars.
But this was just the beginning. Before the sailors in the cabin who were bruised by broken wood launched a counterattack, the latest Ming army canal ship that rushed out was straight on the shore, and then...
The ship was swollen with a black hole like a water tank aimed at an armed merchant ship.
"Oh, Virgin Mary!"
Captain Philip shouted in a trembling voice.
Almost at the same time, the muzzle was like a volcano erupting, ejecting terrifying flames. The huge recoil made the invincible general gun move back fiercely, instantly break free from the iron chains, with splashing broken iron chains and rotten wood chips, flying backwards like a prehistoric beast, but at the same time, a flowering bullet also dragged the flames' tail and shot out almost flat. Yang Feng covered his face speechlessly and instantly smashed an armed merchant ship's starboard wooden board and crashed into the cabin.
And the cannon immediately fell into the mud and sand of the shallows.
silence.
The entire river surface was silent.
Philip opened his mouth wide enough to stuff his fists and looked at the boat, looking at a hole that was big enough to penetrate a small boat, but the next moment, the hole suddenly turned into countless broken wooden boards that were also ejected. At this moment, the entire armed merchant ship was torn into countless pieces by the terrifying internal explosion force and shot in all directions.
Then the river surface was still silent.
"The battalion commander of that cannon is your brother, right?"
Yang Feng held back his desire to cry and said to Liang Cheng with an expressionless face.
The five God-Wild General Cannons are individually organized as heavy artillery brigades to distinguish them from artillery brigades that use nine-jin field guns and mortar cannons. One cannon is a battalion. After all, this thing is served by hundreds of people, so it is impossible to play around. Just pulling the shells requires a large number of soldiers. In fact, a God-Wild General Cannon requires a total of 600 soldiers and fifty cows. In addition, with a huge organization such as one hundred horses, Yang Feng is preparing to equip them with elephants in the future.
Commander Liang nodded in a wooden manner.
"He is really loyal and brave. Let him find a way to get it up by himself!"
Yang Feng said.
Although the battalion commander of this invincible general artillery was too loyal and had reached a point of being brainless, his crazy actions caused Yang Feng to destroy a cannon and completely destroyed the Dutch's courage to resist. Looking at the Ming army's cannon that was still gushing out, Captain Philip raised the white flag tremblingly and shouted for surrender.
This tama is so scary!
He swore that he had never seen such a cruel cannon when he grew up so old.
The so-called giant cannons in Europe, such as the sixty-two-pound cannons, are simply small toys in front of this thing.
Although this thing is not something that a warship can carry...
In fact, it also shattered the canal ship as it fell into the shallows, but fortunately the ship was stranded first and then fired fire, so most of the artillery soldiers on the ship, including their battalion commander, climbed out by themselves.
But such cannons can be set up in a narrow place in the Yangtze River like Jiangyin, and then easily block the entire Yangtze River channel. Not to mention the East India Company fleet, even if the British Golden Ghost is opened, it will probably have to be killed in one shot. The Dutch East India Company cannot afford such a terrifying monster!
What's more, there is no hope of continuing to fight.
The Ming army's artillery was significantly more powerful than his small cannons that were only used to defend against pirates. If they really fought, they would probably destroy the remaining two ships in just a few rounds of volleys. Why do you still hold on? After tied up the culprit Gong Dingzi very simply, Captain Philip immediately greeted the Ming army who was boarding the ship with a smile.
Yang Feng was not killed.
He just sent people to board the ship to take over, and then arrested the people and sent them directly to Nanjing to be detained.
These two ships are very useful to him. They can be used as samples to teach shipbuilders to learn European shipbuilding technology. After all, he will build ships next. In recent years, he has stocked up a large amount of oak outside Shanhaiguan. Zheng Zhilong also has a lot of teak in Fujian. After years of drying, he can already use it to build ships. However, if you have drawings, you should not be as intuitive as a sample ship. He had long wanted to build a real European ship as a template, and now he has delivered it to his door.
"Your Majesty, it was this rebel who fired at Your Majesty."
Liang Cheng said.
Two Jinyiweis behind him dragged Gong Dingzi onto the boat, who was still full of righteousness and refused to kneel down. One Jinyiwei simply hit his leg with a big stick. With the sound of the bone breaking, Lord Gong immediately screamed and fell to the ground.
"who is he?"
Yang Feng said.
"When you go back to Your Majesty, he was a Jinshi in the seventh year of Chongzhen. He was a former military officer, Gong Dingzi, later surrendered and surrendered to Jiannu. When His Majesty returned to the palace, the Jinyiwei searched and failed to catch him. He had received information before and arrived in Nanjing, but for some reason, he actually appeared on the Red-haired Man's ship."
Liang Cheng said.
"Gong Dingzi? His concubine is Gu Hengbo, right?"
Yang Feng said with interest.
"Go back to your Majesty, that's exactly."
Liang Cheng said.
"I've rewarded you!"
Yang Feng said.
He had no interest in Bayan. After all, he was just a group of prostitutes who were praised. Just like modern female stars, the so-called innocent prostitutes were nonsense. It was just that ordinary people could not ride, but those wealthy and powerful people still rode the same if they wanted to ride.
Of course, there are no exceptions for those who come to Li Xiangjun.
When Gong Dingzi heard this, he didn't know what happened. He suddenly roared, like a fish that had just been caught. He bounced from the deck and wanted to hit him, but then he was slapped back by the big stick of the Jinyiwei beside him. Poor poet Gong spit out blood and shouted to the sky sadly: "Regent, the servant is incompetent and cannot kill the demon for you. Emperor, I have the heavy trust of the emperor!"
"Uh, he's still a slave!"
Yang Feng said speechlessly.
"Since he likes to be Dorgon's slave so much, let's do it for him. Skin him like Dorgon, cut him now, and throw the Yangtze River to feed the fish!"
So in this way, the emperor was rushing to the battlefield, and another unique embellishment was added. The poor poet Gong was tied to a wooden frame with a bow erected, and was served by two executioners. He screamed in the cheers of the soldiers on the ships on both sides. Like the holy lord and wise king in his mind, he started to cut the flesh one by one. The cut meat was thrown directly into the Yangtze River to feed the fish. Soon, a few jumping porpoises appeared next to the fleet, waiting happily for the food thrown on the ship. Just as he kept screaming, the huge fleet arrived in Nanjing.
And the Yangtze River bank outside the city was full of people kneeling to welcome the emperor.
With the emperor's appearance, the cheers of long live came out immediately.
Amid the cheers like tsunami, Poet Gong, who had no good flesh on his body, raised his head with difficulty.
As if he had a heart-to-heart relationship, his eyes fell on the face of a young beauty on the shore, and the latter was also looking at him expressionlessly. The two of them looked at each other, and the beauty showed a hint of contempt, then stretched out her hand to hold the arm of a burly man next to her. Gong Dingzi looked at the man in surprise, widened his eyes in disbelief, and then suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out with a smirk, a strange sound came out of her mouth, staring at her eyes with her eyes closed and her head tilted.
The man hugged his beloved concubine Gu Heng and pushed his head on the hat. He seemed to move his hair upwards, revealing a little blue scalp.
He did not look at Gong Dingzi, but stared at Yang Feng.
Of course Yang Feng wouldn't know about this.
He was standing on the deck of the ship, quietly staring at the majestic Nanjing city behind the subjects.
The ancient city wall stands majestic, the Lion Mountain behind the city wall is green and dripping, Xuanwu Lake is sparkling in the distance, and the purple and golden mountains are scattered at the end of the view. In the middle of all this, there are countless buildings, palaces, temples, towers, bridges, and beautiful gardens that stretch for more than 40 square kilometers, forming an extremely magnificent picture scroll. Of course, there are three million people living in these buildings. This is the largest and most prosperous city in the world at this time...
Yingtian City.
Nanjing City of the Ming Empire.
After almost three years of bloody battle, he finally pulled out this ancient empire from the abyss of destruction.
The dust washes away, and the country is still the same.
