Chapter 570 A Gift to Victoria
Yinmen Formation, or the art of disgusting, this art has a long history...
Well, this was not invented by Yang Fang.
In fact, it was very common to use women's bodies to get sick of cannons since the Ming Dynasty. It was probably because the quality of artillery was poor in the past. I don't know which charlatan had the first time playing the cannon on the opposite side exploded. So the saying that the enemy would explode if they dared to fire the cannon. Generations of generals went on to test the authenticity of their lives, and evolved into many different versions. For example, in the original history of the raven in Yang Fang's toilet formation, such as during the Taiping Army, the Qing army found a bunch of pregnant women in red clothes and dancing on the city walls, until the Boxer Regiment was fully developed, and it became invulnerable to swords and guns. Even the great writer Mr. Lu Xun had recorded in his articles...
Well, such an exaggerated tactic is actually very marketable.
"Divine Emperor, what should I do?"
Chen Liu asked Yang Feng carefully.
The God Emperor's expression was very strange at this time. After all, so many women were on the grass, facing him in such a shameful posture, which was really a huge test of his worldview. Of course, Yang Fang was not surprised to use the toilet array. After all, this guy had used it in history, but this Yinmen array still made his long-tested brain dizzy.
At this moment, the Qing soldiers behind the girls had already started to clamor, and it was obvious that their morale was relatively strong.
The Ming soldiers were also watching the Divine Emperor.
Yang Feng took a deep breath.
He pulled down from the sky, and then turned around and walked towards the artillery position without even looking at the battlefield. At the same time, the meteor in the sky fell. Yang Feng, who walked to the artillery position, patted his military artillery battalion commander on the shoulder while the flames of five meteors exploded from the Qing army formation.
"Start fire and shoot all your shells!"
He said.
The battalion commander immediately saluted and nodded.
Immediately afterwards, he shouted a series of parameters to the gunmen beside the twenty-four-pound mortar cannons, who quickly completed the adjustment. The loader picked up the 20-pound heavy flowering bullets, punched holes in the medicine plate fuse, and then loaded the shells into the muzzle. As the battalion commander pointed forward in his hand, the eighteen mortar cannons sprayed flames at the same time. The eighteen shells burned with their flame-burning tails rushed straight into the sky, and fell immediately after reaching the ballistic, and passed the girls and fell into the already chaotic Qing army behind.
The explosion of flames rose again, and then...
The Qing army collapsed.
He collapsed without any hesitation.
Most of them were re-collapsed after the last defeat. Many people have been defeated twice. Their fear of the Ming army and Yang Feng was completely instinctive. There were also many strong men who were forcibly captured here, and they were even ready to run from the beginning. They could still face the Ming army's array, relying entirely on the little fantasy of the Yinmen formation. At this time, they saw that the Yinmen formation was ineffective, and their morale was instantly discharged.
Then there is only fear left.
In the continuous fallen flower bomb explosion, the 30,000 Qing troops collapsed on the whole line, and even their commander was the first to escape. Yang Fang, who had been through the battlefield for a long time, ran faster than anyone else. When the Ming infantry on the opposite side began to attack, sheep were completely herded here, but the girls were calm and cheerfully cursing behind.
"How did the Tatars conquer China?"
Among the crowd watching the game, Elliot, who had lost all his views, almost covered his face and asked Ma Dichen.
"I'm very curious about this question, too."
Ma Dichen said with a smile.
His mood can be said to be as bright as his smile. If he had been worried that the cabinet would not agree to start a war, then there was no need to consider this issue at this time. The Tatars's clumsy combat power was almost equivalent to an invitation to welcome the invasion. If a prey such a weak and plump would not take action, it would be a sin. He seemed to have seen him wearing red...
"May I have your name?"
A proud voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
He quickly returned to reality, looked at the figure in red military uniform in front of him, and took off his hat and saluted the guy who suddenly appeared.
"Dear Your Majesty, I am Charles Elliot, the Chief Commercial Supervisor of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, to the Qing Dynasty, Mr. Ma Dichen, Chairman of Jardine Mass. We would like to congratulate your army on winning another brilliant victory, but as the plenipotent representative of Her Majesty the Queen here, I still have to protest to you. Your last attack on Guangzhou caused the deaths of two Chinese merchants and a shop was destroyed. We solemnly request you to respect the interests of merchants in the United Kingdom. In addition, you hope that you will allow our merchant ships to berth and trade in your ruling area. This will be beneficial to both of us."
Elliot said while bowing.
"Selling crow pian?"
Yang Feng said with a smile.
"Uh, if you think you can."
Ma Dichen hurriedly said.
This is indeed beneficial to both of them. Their problem is that no docking is allowed in other places except Guangzhou, and it is troublesome to rely solely on smuggling ships at sea to receive goods. However, it is much more convenient if it can be docked at Yang Feng. A smuggling point on land is much more reliable than at sea, and Yang Feng can also make huge profits from it.
"no."
Yang Feng said: "Trade is OK, but crow pians cannot. If someone dares to sell crow pians on my territory, then..."
His right index finger suddenly pointed at Ma Dichen's left ear. The latter was stunned and suddenly screamed and reached out to cover his left ear. However, before his hand could arrive, his left ear appeared in his hand. However, the strange thing was that there was no blood. The poor Ma Dichen was stunned when he looked at his ears, and then he started to tremble.
"Then it's the head."
Yang Feng said with a hint of sneer.
Of course, smoking is banned on his territory, and in fact there is no need to be banned. At this time, the ravens were not yet at the point where ordinary people could enjoy it. It was a luxury item that officials and gentry enjoyed after the Qing Dynasty was launched. Most of the latter on his territory were hanged on city walls. The remaining few were directly locked in small black houses, and they could quit if they could survive. If they could not survive, they deserved to die. What human rights does the ravens have? After dozens of them were locked up in the Xinhui area and disappeared. After the land reform was completed in the later stage, the grassroots regime in various places would be established. This thing would be completely lost. As for what he needed, he would purchase directly with the East India Company and he did not need to cooperate with these retail investors.
"My Majesty, I need to protest to you again!"
Elliot said righteously.
Yang Feng immediately pointed at him. Elliot was also a navy man, and he threw himself to the side without hesitation. Before he could get up, Yang Feng sat on the stone in front of him with a smile.
"Mr. Elliott, you are not qualified to protest in my land. You should remember this in the future. You can ask me for anything, and then give you what I want, but no matter what I do, you can only accept, not protest, oppose, and refuse. You should not use these words before me. In front of you is a God Emperor. If you do not understand this word, you can regard me as Yawei. You need to crawl humbly at my feet like kneeling in front of Yawei. If you or other British people dare to stand and talk to me next time, then you will never think of standing again."
Yang Feng said.
After saying that, he stretched out his hand, scratched the stone under his butt, peeled out a piece of granite, and then held it in his hand like a ball of mud, and the stone turned into a...
A lucky cat.
"Give it to Victoria for me, and say that my uncle gave her and Albert the wedding gift."
Yang Feng handed the lucky cat to Elliot and said.
Poor Elliot's brain completely crashed.
He lay on the mud tremblingly, holding this very cute little stone sculpture in his hand, and his whole body was completely in a petrified state like this lucky cat.
"Divine Emperor, the enemy has collapsed across the board. Should we continue to pursue it?"
A voice suddenly woke him up.
"Chasing? If you pursue it again, Heshan will probably not be able to stop it. You have to cross the Xijiang River and chase it all the way to Guangzhou! So should you take Guangzhou down together?"
Yang Feng muttered to himself with a confused look on his face.
At this time, the people around him knelt down and kowtowed to each other and then kowtowed suddenly and shouted in unison: "I would like to ask the God Emperor to expel the Tartars and save the people from water and fire, and come to Guangzhou to protect the people. Caomin and others are willing to drive forward to the royal army."
"Then, then chase and take Guangzhou!"
Yang Feng waved his hand and said.
Then there was a tsunami-like cheer around.
Speaking of this, the situation around Guangzhou has long been known to everyone. The poor people were looking forward to the king's army day and night. Even Luo Dagang could raise an army in Jieyang, let alone Guangzhou, which is close to him. However, the Qing army gathered in this area, and the people dared not rebel. They could only wait for Yang Feng to come. At this moment, this dream was not happy to realize. Just after Yang Feng's order was issued, the people who came from Guangzhou, South China Sea, and Xiangshan turned around and rushed to the battlefield, picked up the weapons discarded by the Qing army and rushed to Heshan, especially those who came from Heshan, ran to the front as quickly as possible to lead the way for the king's army. Some people in Xiangshan, Foshan even simply invited the Ming soldiers to cross the river to their places.
"Go to Guangzhou!"
Yang Feng said to Chen Liu.
Immediately afterwards, they got on their horses and followed the surging torrent of the people.
Then Elliot suddenly woke up.
"Damn it, what should we do if they conquer Guangzhou?"
He said to Ma Dichen, who was still holding his ears sad.
"Uh, we? What's wrong with us? Damn, all our business is in Guangzhou, all our shops and business channels are in Guangzhou. He put the officials and wealthy businessmen who cooperate with us on the city walls. Who cooperates with us to sell ravens? We will go bankrupt."
Ma Dichen suddenly forgot his ear and screamed.
"The Tatars should be able to hold on?"
Elliot said with a hint of naive fantasy.
"Can I hold on? The Tatars are not as good as these green camps! Is it still unclear to whom my crows are sold?"
Ma Dichen wailed in grief and anger.
"We have to help them!"
Elliot said without hesitation.
They knew very well what Yang Feng controlled Guangzhou meant to them. First, Yang Feng would not allow them to sell ravens. Second, Guangzhou was the only port that allowed them to trade. Goods from all over China came here to trade with them through the Thirteenth Line. Yang Feng controlled Guangzhou to mean the disappearance of this market. The Tatars could not allow goods to be shipped to Guangzhou. If the merchants with official positions in the Thirteenth Line would probably have to hang city walls. They were all officials and businessmen of grades. Before the new trading port was confirmed, their business would also stagnate. Third, there were a large number of their merchants in Guangzhou. Once Guangzhou fell into a melee, they would definitely not be spared and they would suffer heavy losses.
They must help the Qing army protect Guangzhou.
"Import Brigadier General Bomai that his fleet will go to Humen immediately and help the Tatars guard the fortress if necessary. You and Chaton will immediately go to Macau to recruit Portuguese mercenaries to prepare for reinforcements to Guangzhou."
He continued.
Bomai led two British warships to cruise at the Pearl River Estuary. After all, Yang Feng's steam warships and rifled guns were new. The British Navy also wanted to see the effects of these brand new weapons in naval battles. Bomai, who was originally in Australia, was transferred to Guangzhou to protect the interests of British merchants here and observe the naval battle between Yang Feng and the Qing army at close range. As for the army, there was no such thing as the army, and Elliot did not have the right to mobilize from India. However, local British merchants hired Portuguese from Macau and trained their own arms. This was nothing to do with the British government.
However, he didn't know that it was too late at this time, because Yang Feng didn't need to walk through Humen at all.
There are countless waterways between Xinhui and Guangzhou, and any one can bypass the Humen Fortress. Although these waterways cannot sail on battleships, what Yang Feng lacks most at this time is ships. Countless poor fishermen are flying boats from all over the place, and then carry Ming soldiers and those spontaneously armed villagers. In this pure water country, the country gathered towards the city of Guangzhou like torrents.
This is a real people's war.
Yang Feng's subordinates did have only two infantry brigades. After deducting reinforcements from Luo Dagang and guarding the Xinhui, they could dispatch up to 6,000 people to attack Guangzhou. However, those volunteers gathered from all over the country were not only 6,000. Moreover, as the news of the God Emperor's attack on Guangzhou spread, organizations such as the Tiandihui in the area and even in western and northern Guangdong also joined the war. The Pearl River water system converged in Guangzhou like a highway. The volunteers from all over the world appeared outside the city of Guangzhou before Yang Feng arrived in Guangzhou.
Yang Feng didn't take a step in Xinhui for half a year, but he got everything he wanted.
The Qing Dynasty's rule in this area was like a shaky building block. He poked it with his finger and collapsed.
No matter how Elliot wanted to help the Qing army, it was meaningless.
In the face of such huge waves, they are destined to be the jumping clowns.
