"Since the other party won't let me pass, I can only force my way through!" This was what Hong Chengchou was thinking at this time. He believed that more than half of the hundreds of ships would be able to get through.
Although Hong Chengchou's thoughts were beautiful, the reality taught him the difference between water warfare and land warfare. As soon as he finished speaking, a warship flying the white tiger flag on a black background suddenly let out several roars.
As more than a dozen firelights flashed and accompanied by a huge roar, an iron-toothed ship not far away that was trying to sneak past was hit by seven or eight iron pellets.
The huge motion hit the iron-toothed ship, which was less than a hundred tons. The flying wood chips were splashed everywhere on the river. The small boat suddenly had several holes as big as washbasins, which were less than a cup of tea.
In a matter of seconds, the iron-toothed ship sank to the bottom of the river in a whirlpool, leaving only a dozen sailors struggling on the river surface.
Looking at the struggling and wailing sailors on the river, Cao Huachun, who had never experienced such a battle, was almost scared out of his wits. His legs were shaking uncontrollably, his face was so white that it was almost transparent, and he smelled of irritation.
Liquid flowed out of his heels.
Mr. Gan Qian, who was frightened and angry, shouted loudly to the people around him: "Everyone, listen, don't move rashly. Don't move rashly without my order. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"
After calming his panicked men, General Gan Qian said to Hong Chengchou with a sad expression: "Master Hong, you have seen what happened just now. Water warfare is different from land warfare. Fighting on water depends on the size of the ship and the number of artillery.
And the use of tactics to determine victory or defeat. It does not mean that we can fight with others simply by the number of ships. Although we have hundreds of ships, almost all of them are civilian ships without combat power. If the opponent really wants to destroy
We're afraid it won't take us half a day to explain it here.
The general also knows that you are worried about the safety of the emperor, but if we really want to escape, our civilian ships cannot outrun them, and in the end we will only end up with the entire army annihilated."
While Mr. Gan Qian was talking, Hong Chengchou just remained silent. He looked at the warship with a black hole of gun port exposed on the river with a miserable expression, and sighed leisurely: "Is it really God who wants to destroy our Ming Dynasty?"
Just when Hong Chengchou was blocked by Mo Hui on the river, Pang Gang was also holding a mobilization meeting in Prince Zhou's Mansion in Qingzhou. Now Pang Gang's team is no longer just two or three kittens and puppies like before.
With an army of 200,000, he can be said to have a strong army. Therefore, there are naturally many people who come to join him. Although the Ming Dynasty's orthodox name is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the situation in the Ming Dynasty is still declining in recent years. Anyone with a little foresight
The literati with lofty ideals can naturally see that the Ming Dynasty is running out of time. If you want to stay safe in the coming troubled times, the best way is to quickly find the thickest thigh and hug it tightly.
Many scholars who are very hesitant about the future naturally cast their eyes on Pang Gang, who is now the most powerful in the Ming Dynasty. Compared with the already sluggish Ming Dynasty, Pang Gang has a bright future like the newborn sun. As long as he has a brain,
Those who are not broken naturally know how to choose. These days, there is an endless stream of people going to Qingzhou to join the Zhou Dynasty." Someone also formally bid farewell to the dilemma of wanting to be an official in the past two years but not being able to do so.
Pang Gang established herself as queen and did not take the opportunity to expand the original mansion. She only changed a plaque at the door, so the meeting place was still set up in the original pledge room. At this moment, in the pledge room of less than 100 square meters, The seats were packed with nearly fifty people. Among those present were Li Yuan, Li Xian and his son, Da Zhuang, Wang Zhi, Ben Shiqian, Qi Wuming, who first followed Pang Gang, and Hua Yan, who later joined Pang Gang. , Lin Feng, Wen Renjun, Li Xianfeng, as well as the civil and military officials who later joined Pang Gang's command, etc. At this moment, they were all sitting in this small signing room, staring at Pang Gang, as if they wanted to see something. It looks like a flower blooming.
Pang Gang, who was sitting at the front, looked at the dark crowd, smiled with satisfaction, and said, "Everyone, I have summoned you all to discuss something today. I think everyone knows what is being discussed, right? "
"Your Majesty, are we heading towards the capital?"
Li Yuan, who was impatient and outspoken, still had the same straight-tempered temper. He couldn't hold back anything he said in his heart, so he shouted out directly. However, he was accidentally knocked on the head by his father, Li Xian. After hitting his son's head, Li Xian again She glared at him fiercely, blaming him for interrupting the prince's words.
"Hehehe..."
Seeing Li Yuan touching his head and feeling aggrieved but unwilling to speak out, everyone couldn't help but laugh. Even Pang Gang smiled and shook his head, saying there was nothing he could do against this precious team of father and son.
Pang Gang knocked on the table and raised his voice: "Okay, everyone, stop laughing, everyone should listen carefully to what's going to happen next."
Seeing the boss's words, everyone straightened up and turned their attention to Pang Gang.
Pang Gang looked around at everyone. Everyone who was caught by Pang Gang's eyes cheered up and looked at Pang Gang with his chest raised. Seeing this situation, Pang Gang nodded with satisfaction and said: "Brother Li just said it right, we are going to the capital!"
"Wow..."
As soon as Pang Gang finished speaking, everyone below let out an exclamation, and many people's faces were filled with excited blushes. In their view, this was an important step for their boss to move towards that throne. As long as they occupy the capital, will they still be far away from the throne? And as ministers of Conglong, do they need to ask about their future future?
Looking at the excited expressions on everyone's faces, Pang Gang knew what they were thinking. Naturally, Pang Gang was very clear about human nature's instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Naturally, he would not be surprised that people would think this way. On the contrary, Pang Gang I also believe that this kind of idea can become a powerful motivation if used properly.
Seeing the uncontrollable excitement on everyone's faces, Pang Gang continued: "The purpose of the bandits' invasion of the capital this time is very clear. They just want to seize the capital, and then occupy the rightful name and then command the world. The current situation in the capital, everyone. We all know that the 100,000-odd Beijing camp alone cannot stop the hundreds of thousands of rogues, and what do we have to do?"
Having said this, Pang Gang's smiling and firm eyes turned to everyone's faces again, and then he said: "What we have to do is to appear behind the bandits when they enter the capital, and surround them all in one fell swoop. Annihilation......"!~!
