Chapter 417 Tell the Emperor: Jiangdu County is restored (please subscribe!)
The magistrate of Jiangdu County and his fellow villagers were afraid to take the initiative again. The Ming army's range had already frightened them.
There was no other way. The infantry of the National Defense Force under the city wall could only continue to train their shooting skills and use bullets to focus on other objects to cause trouble for the Qing army.
For example, you can directly hit the tiles on the city tower and let the tiles fall down and injure one or two village heroes, or knock down the lanterns on the city tower, and the ashes of the lanterns can also confuse the eyes of several village heroes.
After this operation, Qing Army Xiangyong was immediately convinced. Such a terrifying enemy was a fart. If there were no servants supervising the battle, they would have finished running!
The servants are also timid, but the ancient moral values are still acceptable for using people's money to eliminate disasters for others. At least we should wait until the city wall fails before running away, right?
As time went by, Xiang Yong finally understood that they could not be beaten, but they could afford to hide. They all fell to the ground one by one, so that the infantry of the National Defense Force had no choice but to sit down and rest.
At this time, the artillery of the National Defense Force finally arrived on the battlefield along with the main force.
He You, the leader of the third town, couldn't help but ask the battalion commander of the Xiang Infantry Battalion: "What's going on? Where is the Qing army? Isn't there a defender in Jiangdu County?"
"Sir, yes, these guys are just like cowards. They hide behind the battlements and refuse to show up, waiting for the brothers from the artillery battalion to come up and let them drink a few bottles."
Guan Zhen He You looked at the empty city and laughed: "Then let these guys see, the artillery battalion is ready, the artillery can fire freely, and I will bombard Jiangdu County!"
The boots of the infantrymen of the National Defense Forces kicked up a trail of smoke and dust when they stepped on the yellow soil. They were very fast, almost as fast as cavalry. As long as there were Qing troops in front of them, they would immediately stab them with a spear, which would directly penetrate the Qing troops, and then
Pull it out and keep rushing forward.
"Get out of here, the Qing Dynasty treats you well, why don't you go and see if you treat the Qing Dynasty like this!" Shi Shilun, a little slave, is still loyal.
The artillery of the National Defense Forces not only surpassed this era in terms of explosive power, but also its shooting accuracy. The artillery shells accurately hit the riveted structure of Jiangdu County City Gate, and only fired two shots each. Jiangdu County City Gate
Then he fell to the ground with a crash.
Boom!
If the city wall could talk, the city wall would definitely say: This is a high-end game!
The county magistrate had no choice but to nod his head, but he did not dare to show his head and touched a county official with his foot: "Old Fang, please go out and take a look."
"Useless piece of shit!"
The Xiangyong of the Qing army in Jiangdu County were completely defeated and ran desperately to other streets, and some even hid in private houses. However, the first team of the Ming army did not pursue these Xiangyong and only occupied them as quickly as possible.
The Qing army Xiang Yong who occupied the rear city tower and the rear city tower had already fled without a trace, so it was not necessary to waste a single shot to capture the rear city gate and the city tower.
The fifth team put on their gendarmerie shoulder badges and entered the city in pairs. Starting from the top of the city, every time they caught someone in the city, they shouted:
"say!"
Only some of the country warriors who ran down the tower were not injured by the artillery shells and bullets of the Wehrmacht.
In fact, the Xiangyong on the city wall had no firepower at all!
It's just He You's habitual military terminology.
"The No. 1 artillery position has been debugged!"
The county magistrate said with a mournful face: "I don't know, sir. Let's evacuate quickly!"
Soon, the second and third teams also occupied the left and right towers respectively, and the fourth team had also surrounded important Qing army money, grain and supplies bases such as the county government office and the grain depot and armory.
"Fire bayonets! The first team captures the rear tower, the second team captures the left side, the third team captures the right side, the fourth team captures the county government office and the grain depot and armory, the fifth team is the gendarmerie responsible for hoeing out traitors, and the sixth team
Stay at the main city gate! The direct cavalry immediately reported the news to the emperor. We have recaptured Jiangdu County at the eleventh hour on August 5, the seventh year of Shenwu in the Ming Dynasty! We are waiting for the emperor's next instructions."
This man actually said something and kept kowtowing to beg for mercy.
The county magistrate Shi Shilun cursed and gave orders to another village hero: "You're the one, look up and look outside to see what's going on."
After the thunderous shouts, waves of roars resounded in the sky above Jiangdu County.
The county magistrate Shi Shilun felt something bad, and couldn't help but ask the county magistrate next to him: "Listen to this sound, is the Ming army's artillery coming?"
Some Xiangyong who were hiding behind the battlements screamed, and their severed hands and feet fell to the ground along with the collapsed battlements. Blood and flesh mixed with soil and bricks instantly filled the entire area around Jiangdu County.
"The fourth gun position has been debugged!"
Not long after He You's order from the Third Town Guanzhen was issued, the artillerymen of the National Defense Force began to draw artillery towards the vicinity of Jiangdu County. As the cover of vegetation and vines was pulled away, one artillery piece began to reveal its original position.
A ferocious face.
"The second gun position is debugged!"
The military police soldiers who were sent out to maintain post-war order had all received training in Manchu and local dialects from various parts of the north, so they could understand what these people said.
The battlements in the southwest of Jiangdu County were hit by a bullet, and the battlements were lifted directly, with bricks and mud flying everywhere.
This is also to reduce the pressure on Jin Yiwei. We cannot let Jin Yiwei take care of everything. On the one hand, there is not enough manpower, and it is not good for Jin Yiwei to have too much power.
After Guan Zhen He You issued the order, he drew his command sword and said: "Charge!"
Reports came from everywhere, but Xiang Yong still didn't dare to show his head at this time.
But just when Shi Shilun was not caring about Xiang Yong's life or death, the National Defense Force Artillery Battalion had issued the order to launch.
The earthen and rammed mud city walls of Jiangdu County could not withstand the bombardment of nitrate explosives from the National Defense Forces artillery. The Xiangyong hiding behind the battlements would either come forward and be killed by the National Defense Forces infantry on the spot, or they could only be overturned by the air waves of the shells.
Or injured by shrapnel.
As soon as they heard that this man was a dog Tatar, the military police of the National Defense Force immediately drew their sabers and slashed at the Tatar. Soon, the Tatar's head was chopped off and loaded onto the carriage.
The young official named Lao Fang's legs were trembling, and he cautiously stuck out half of his head. Before he could see the outside, He You, who had always been a very good shooter, shot him in the exposed half of the ear.
: "Brothers of the infantry battalion, continue to give me suppressive firepower on the city wall!"
"It's not Yangzhou dialect, it's Manchu, it's the stubborn Tatars!"
"The third gun position has been debugged!"
The Jiangdu County official named Lao Fang covered his bloody ears and lay on the ground, not daring to raise his head again, so he had to pretend to be sick: "Master, I have an eye problem again. I really can't see what's going on outside."
"put!"
"say!"
"Okay, I say, Master, spare your life, Master, spare your life!"
"He's a Han Chinese. Let him go for now. He will be brought to trial later!"
In this way, the National Defense Force Gendarmerie began preliminary cleaning activities throughout Jiangdu County that afternoon.
Chapter completed!
