Chapter 515: Bombardment! Destroy the city! Stone walls are smashed!
The dense grape marbles fell down again, and the Tartars on the shore fell almost in pieces.
Everything is just a copy of the shooting just now, and there is no need to describe it. The only difference is that this time, there are more Tartars on the beach, and when the grape bullets fall, Tartars suffer more damage. A large amount of blood is injected into the already turbid sea water, turning the sea water into a dark red. At this time, if someone dives into the water and opens his eyes, he will find that he can't see anything at all.
At this time, the Tartars who came up with reinforcements felt something was wrong. It turned out that the warships of the Hu Ben Army were not really going to retreat, but to lure them to approach the seaside and all into the range of cannons. Now, they were fooled, and the warships of the Hu Ben Army immediately killed a resurgence and killed them a lot. Under the shooting of the opponent's cannons, they had no chance to counterattack. How could bows and arrows shoot more than cannons?
"withdraw!"
"Retreat!"
"Retreat to Jinzhou City!"
The leader of the Tartars kept shouting and took the lead in evacuation. The surviving Tartars hurriedly followed, and the entire beach was in chaos. Many Tartars collided with each other and then fell down together. Some people were tripped by the corpses of their companions on the ground and stacked them fiercely together.
The Tartars in the sea water were tragic. They ran too actively and were deeply trapped in the water. Now they were a little difficult to withdraw. Because there were too many corpses of their companions blocking their faces. There were not any things under their feet that hindered their progress. Some people couldn't even tell the direction. As they walked, they slipped under their feet and drowned in the water.
The Tartars standing on the beach secretly thanked that they did not enter the water and could now escape in time. However, the shooting targets of the three Cangshan boats were behind the Tartars. They were indifferent to the Tartars near the coast, but specifically intercepted the Tartars. Obviously, the Hu Ben Army wanted to cut off the Tartars' retreat first and take all the Tartars on the beach. Sure enough, most of the marbles fell on the Tartars and knocked them down easily.
Due to the long-range range of the flying dragon cannon and the close shooting of the three Cangshan boats, the continuous falling marbles just enveloped more than 90% of the Tartars within the range. Because of the special strategy of the Tiger Ben Army, a strange scene appeared on the battlefield. The fastest-running Tartars were hit by the marbles. Many of the Tartars, who were standing on the shore and only about one hundred meters away from the Cangshan boat, were fine. Well, it was fine for the time being.
For a moment, many Tartars seemed to be stunned, not understanding what they had encountered. Those who ran fast were beaten to death, while those who didn't run were fine. What was going on? The somewhat confused Tartars even looked at the Tiger Army warships on the sea innocently and curiously. With their wisdom, they really couldn't understand such a fighting method.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Suddenly, a more violent sound of cannons came, but Li Jicheng's flagship fired.
Li Jicheng's flagship activities are not as flexible as Cangshan Ship, and the range of the cannons is closer than that of the Feilong Cannon. However, there are six cannons on both sides of the flagship. If you shoot grape bullets together, the power is still very strong, and the distribution of marbles is even more dense.
"ah!"
"Bang!"
"puff!"
Sure enough, the grape bombs fell down, and the Tartars on the shore screamed and fell down.
There were grape bombs falling behind, and there were grape bombs falling in front, and most of the Tartars were fooled. They seemed to have never had such an experience and didn't know how to deal with it. Their past experience obviously could not support them to make the correct judgment at this time. They could only run around aimlessly, hoping that God would favor them and not be hit by the falling marbles.
However, no matter which direction they were running, it seemed that a large number of marbles fell down, and they found them accurately. As they ran, they fell to the ground and after struggling for a while, they basically would not move. As a last resort, most of the Tartars had to move closer to the beach in the middle. There were no grape bombs falling here yet, so it was safe for the time being. However, no one could guarantee that this place would always be safe.
"Silly Tartars!"
Li Jicheng said coldly.
Do you think there are no grape bombs falling on the beach in the middle? It's so naive!
"It's just a human instinct reaction."
Zhang Zhun said lightly.
In fact, he did not expect that these Tartars who came up with reinforcements would take the initiative to rush to the beach and give them a chance to kill for nothing. The pocket of the Tiger Army Navy is still relatively obvious. As long as people who know a little about naval battles will not do anything randomly. The Tartars in Liaodong probably have never encountered such a fighting style, so they do not understand the power of it. This is understandable. Of course, being forgiven does not mean that Zhang Zhun will forgive their lives.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
After destroying the Tartars in front and behind, the artillery fire of the Tiger Army gradually compressed towards the beach in the middle. The Tartars standing in the middle of the beach could no longer calm down.
The marbles were flying and splashing in the sky, knocking down all the objects blocking their own road to the ground. In front of the marbles that were splashing at high speed, the Tartars, who had no ability to resist, could only wail and fell to the ground. In a while, large areas of Tartars fell down in the middle of the beach. After being baptized by dense marbles, the remaining Tartars could no longer bear it and ran around in a hurry. The originally dense crowd scattered, leaving only corpses in a row.
"It's so miserable." Liu Mang couldn't help but shake his head.
"They used to deal with officers and soldiers like this." Brother Wei disliked him.
"I don't sympathize with them, I just think that their death guards are too miserable. Why don't they commit suicide? This is much cleaner and more decent." Liu Mang said in confusion.
"This..." Brother Wei was suffocated for the first time.
Yes, why didn’t the Tartars commit suicide?
If the Tartars committed suicide obediently, there would be no more killings in the world.
"It's almost done, don't beat them all to death." Zhang Zhun reminded Li Jicheng.
"I understand!" Li Jicheng agreed and quickly hung the flag words.
Killing all the Tartars did not meet Zhang Zhun's strategic requirements. He had to have some of the Tartar wounded soldiers sent back to the Tartars nest in Shenyang for treatment in order to achieve his strategic goals. Seeing that there seemed to be not many living Tartars on the beach, the grape bombs continued to smash, and they might have all been killed.
The sound of cannon gradually weakened and finally subsided.
Zhang Zhun raised his thousand-mile mirror and swept the bloody beach. He did not find any standing Tartars. All Tartars were either face down or face up, lying obediently on the beach or floating on the sea. A large amount of blood flowed from the beach to the sea water, turning the nearby sea water completely into blood.
Of course, there must be some surviving Tartars. However, they have been ignored by Zhang Zhun inadvertently. I believe that after being ravaged by the artillery fire of the Tiger Army Navy, the surviving Tartars will have psychological shadows in the future. Such a psychological shadow will bring more Tartars. In the end, the entire Jin Dynasty can gradually feel the existence of this psychological shadow.
"Let's go! Let's go to Zhongzuosuo, Jinzhou!"
Zhang Zhun said coldly.
After dealing with Jinzhouwei, Zhang Zhun has another goal.
The fleet immediately turned and sailed towards the Jinzhou Zhongzuochu, which was directly south.
At this time, the sky was completely dark. At the end of August, the moon turned into a finger-sized trace. The moonlight was very weak, and there were basically no stars. Zhang Zhun held up a thousand-mile mirror and looked at the nearby coast carefully. He could not see any lights, as if there was no living creature. The whole of Liaodong was like a dead city.
After a night of sailing, after dawn, the fleet led by Zhang Zhun came to the sea facing Zhongzuo, Jinzhou. Here is the next target he is going to attack.
Due to its special geographical location in Zhongzuo, Jinzhou, it is closest to Dengzhou City. The ships traveling between Liaodong and Shandong mainly came ashore here. After Dengzhou City was besieged, a large number of Tartars gathered here. According to information, at least about one thousand Tartars stationed in Zhongzuo City were under the jurisdiction of the Inlaid White Banner.
Zhang Zhun discovered in the Qianli Mile Mile that there was a very special place in the Zhongzuo Sect of Jinzhou, which was the city wall at the South Gate, close to the sea. Originally, the city wall in this direction was equipped with cannons to prevent the enemy from attacking from the sea. However, after the Tartars occupied Zhongzuo City, they demolished the cannons on it and moved them to other places where more needed cannons were needed. In other words, Zhongzuo City is now completely in a passive state of being beaten.
"Bangbangbangbang!"
"Bangbangbangbang!"
"Bangbangbangbang!"
After the fleet entered the designated position, another shelling was shot without thinking.
The entire Jinzhou Zhongzuo was suddenly in chaos. The Tartars stationed here also did not expect that an enemy would appear and take the initiative to attack Zhongzuo City. After a long time, the Tartars realized that the Hu Ben Army Navy was the one who shot Zuo City. For a moment, the Tartars were shocked. The Tartars in Zhongzuo City were very familiar with the three words Hu Ben Army. On the opposite side of the sea, there were thousands of Tartars and two Beile, who were firmly surrounded by the Hu Ben Army.
The Tartars thought that the Hu Ben Army was about to land, so they hurriedly mobilized them to fight back. However, the Hu Ben Army's cannons were only constantly bombarded, and there was no sign of people coming ashore. There was no cannon at the Jinzhou Zhongzuo, and they were powerless in the face of the crazy artillery bombardment of the Hu Ben Army Navy. Therefore, they could only passively withstand the shelling. The Tartars here felt the feeling of being ravaged for the first time.
The solid bombs fell one by one, constantly bombarding the city wall of Zhongzuo City, making white seals one by one on it. Some will also make a hole, and dust will continue to fall. The walls of Zhongzuo City are not particularly strong, and when they are concentrated by the solid bomb, the vibration is still very strong. The Tartars hiding behind the city wall can feel such vibration.
Some solid bullets flew directly over the city and landed in Zhongzuo City, directly smashing the buildings to pieces. These messy solid bullets were originally intended to shock the Tartars. As long as the buildings in the city were hit, a big hole would be smashed. Some houses were simply destroyed. The Tartars hiding behind the city walls were all frightened when they were hit by the solid bullets. If they were hit by the solid bullets, the consequences could be imagined.
On Li Jicheng's flagship, Zhang Zhun held a thousand-mile mirror and carefully observed the bullet drop point. Zhang Zhun would never leave without collapse of the city wall of Zhongzuo City. This was an important measure for him to stimulate Huang Taiji. He wanted Huang Taiji to feel that ordinary city walls could not stop the cannons of the Hu Ben Army. In other words, the Great Jin Kingdom would not expect to learn from the Ming army and use a large number of castles to defend the attack of the Hu Ben Army.
However, judging from the current situation, the power of the solid bomb is still a little weaker and cannot blow the city wall open in a short period of time. Well, to be precise, the caliber of the Dragon Cannon is too small, only 70 mm, and cannot give the shell too much kinetic energy. If a Red Cannon with a diameter of 120 mm is enough to blow the city wall of Zhongzuo City in just half an hour. However, it doesn't matter, he has time. If he lacks power, use time to make up for it.
"Bangbangbangbang!"
"Bangbangbangbang!"
"Bangbangbangbang!"
The sound of cannons continued.
Solid bullets continued to hit the city wall at the south gate of Zhongzuo City, constantly shaking the city wall. All the Tartars were huddled behind the city wall, avoiding the shells that flew through the air from time to time. Occasionally, grape bombs fell down, ravaging everything around the Tartars like hail. The marbles splashed everywhere were looking for targets that could be attacked everywhere.
Occasionally, strange-shaped chain bullets fell down, smashing all the objects on the flight trajectory to pieces. The damage caused by the chain bullet is larger than that of the solid bullet. Sometimes a whole brick wall is hit by the chain bullet, and the entire brick wall is destroyed. In the middle of Zhongzuo City, there is a church built by the Portuguese, all of which are made of stone, but now, the brick wall made of stone has also been smashed by the flying chain bullet.
This Portuguese church was the first church built by the Western powers in Liaodong and the first church built in the Ming Dynasty. Due to the differences in Eastern and Western cultures, the Ming Dynasty court did not allow the Portuguese to build churches in the inland of the Ming Dynasty. This church built in the Liaodong region was built in Zhongzuo City mediated by Xu Guangqi, Sun Yuanhua and others.
