"Sister, Prince Zhu Thief's boat rushed forward and lost touch with the sand boat behind it!"

The person who spoke was a charioteer under the Red Lady, nicknamed Fengmingshan. He was a fair-skinned man in his thirties, with a somewhat delicate appearance. He used to be a performer in the entertainment industry with the Red Lady. Later, they worked together at Jigong Mountain in Xinyang.

Mountain is the King, and later he joined Li Zicheng with the Red Lady. He has always been the third leader in the Red Lady's team, so he is also called Feng San.

"Hehehe, it seems that Fujian Shibazhi is also a false name, and it doesn't understand water warfare at all."

The red lady smiled proudly, and her pretty face, which could be said to be stunning even without makeup, was even more charming, making Master Feng San a little crazy.

It's a pity that the red lady's heart is not with him, Feng San...

"Feng San, you come to take charge of the boat, and I will lead some people to join the gang!" As the red lady spoke, she had already walked to the bow of the boat carrying a single sword and a pair of flying claws connected to a thin iron chain, and then squatted down again.

A hand pulled at the rope tied to the deck.

Master Feng San did not compete with Lady Hong. Although this Lady Hong was a female, she had a fierce temperament and liked to take the lead every time she went into battle. As for the command on the battlefield, it was always left to Li Yan and Feng San.

, today is no exception.

Now Li Yan is directing the overall situation on the pontoon of the Wei River, while Feng San is steering the boat for the Red Lady, while the Red Lady personally leads the charge to defeat the Tiao Gang and capture Zhu Cihong!

However, the leader of the group where Zhu Cixiang's flag was located really stood out too much, and the distance between him and the group behind him was obviously widened.

However, Li Yan was still very careful and was not willing to take risks with his wife - the speedboat where the red lady was in was used for the final blow.

Before that, other ships must collide with the big sand boat and immobilize it. Otherwise, the speedboat on which the Red Lady is located will be easily knocked over by the high-speed large sand boat. No matter how high the Red Lady's martial arts are, it will be in vain.

Gave.

"General Zhi, that big sand boat seems to have stopped!"

At this moment, someone from Li Yan's left and right suddenly shouted.

I don't know if he saw something was wrong, but the oars on both sides of the big sand boat where Zhu Cixiang's flag was located suddenly stopped moving. The sand boat, which had lost its forward momentum, slid forward for a while, and then lost the strength to move forward half a foot.

It stopped on the river less than two hundred steps away from Li Yan's pocket formation.

What does this mean? You see a trap and you don’t want to be fooled?

Too late!

Li Yan sneered: "Beat the drums and charge the ships!"

"Here!"

...

Under the bow deck of the Dalongtou sand ship, there is a hidden cabin with dim lights and a narrow space. In this narrow, dark and suffocating cabin, there are two wooden doors with green doors.

A 12-pounder cannon built in Macau.

The so-called red cannon is this 12-pound cannon. Tang Ruowang and Su Ziwen have been ordered to inspect the artillery and ammunition. They found that the craftsmanship and the quality of the gunpowder used in these two cannons are superior to the red cannons and cannons used in Beijing city defense.

ammunition.

In addition, the gunners used by the Shen family were also trained by the Portuguese in Macau, and their gunnery skills were much higher than those of the two amateurs, Tang Ruowang and Su Ziwen.

"Open the gun window!"

Liu, the bow gunner who went down to the bow gun cabin, shouted an order.

Following his order, the two gun windows opened on the front of the square bow were pushed open with a creak.

"Push the cannon!"

Fire Gun Liu gave the order again.

Upon hearing the order, a dozen strong men with bare upper bodies and bulging muscles divided into two teams and pushed the muzzles of the two 12-pound bronze cannons placed on the four-wheeled gun carriages out of the gun windows.

"Aim!" Fire Gun Liu ordered again.

Both cannons had a cannon head. At this time, they both took a few steps forward and put their heads to the cannon window, watching and making gestures.

These two cannons can slightly adjust their left and right and up and down firing angles to aim at targets ahead.

Located directly in front of the Dalongtou is a cannon that can carry five hundred stones of rice and grain. There are side signs on the bow and both sides of the ship. Behind the side signs, half-kneeling man who is familiar with watercraft. There is no armor, everyone

It was just a short fight with tight clothes. Half of them were holding bows and arrows, and the other half had an iron claw tied with a rope. They were all crouching down, half-crouching on the deck.

Oars protrude from between the side plates on both sides of the ship. They are all held in the hands of strong and strong boatmen. They paddle hard and drive the canal forward. There are no strong men in the boat.

Thinking that I have become the target of two Hongyi cannons!

...

Boom!

As two loud noises were heard, Zhu Cixiang felt that the ship's plank under his feet was shaking back and forth. Fortunately, he was prepared and held on to the railing, otherwise he would have to fall over!

The two cannons sprayed out grapeshot, that is, shotgun shells. Two twelve-pound grapeshot blasts covered a large area in one blast! The tiny iron beads immediately formed a barrage on the front of the big dragon head.

With such speed, it covered the targeted cannon, and there was no possibility of missing the target.

The cannon boats all have low sides, and there is no thick ship plank that can be used to withstand grape bullets. As for the side cards and other things, in front of the grape bullets fired by the 12-pound cannon, it is the same whether they have it or not! It is nothing more than a blow.

A hole. And the bullets that penetrated the side cards were not exhausted, and could still penetrate several bodies with bulging muscles. Whether they were soldiers or boatmen, as long as they were hit by grape bullets, their flesh and blood would be bruised, and their bones would be broken. Good luck.

Some of them died without even being able to scream. Those who suffered a miserable life had their hands and feet broken and were left wailing and crying. Even the soldiers and boatmen who were lucky enough to be unscathed were frightened by this sudden turn of events.

The prince of the Zhu family is so cruel and sinister that he has a cannon hidden in the belly of the sand ship!

"The prince has a cannon! Hehe..."

I don't know who was shouting, but those who could still move on the canal were thrown into the water with a splash of dumplings.

...

"Sister, the prince has a cannon!" Feng San was frightened even though he was not hit by the cannon.

The red lady's face suddenly turned pale, and her bulging chest heaved violently.

The crown prince of the Zhu family killed most of his brothers with one shot!

Boom boom......

Before the red lady could react, the cannon over there fired again!

The two cannons changed their targets and aimed at another cannon next to the one that was bombarded just now.

It was also grapeshot, and it was also an overwhelming barrage of projectiles that swept across the deck of the ship. It was also a scene of hell.

In the blink of an eye, two ferocious red cannons actually knocked out Li Yan, the two brothers of the Red Lady!

"Thahu! Tahhu!"

The remaining people on the cannon opened their throats and shouted. They were all made of flesh and blood, how could they withstand the cannon blast?

While shouting and shouting, all the canoes on the water began to move backwards. The boatmen rowed as fast as they could, trying to make their canoes retreat faster. There were also several boats relying on the Dalongtou sand boat.

The soldiers and boatmen on the nearby cannon simply stopped rowing and made their own wontons... They didn't even need the boat anymore. It was important to save their lives!

"Sister, let's withdraw too!" Feng San said loudly to the red lady.

"No!" The red lady's eyes turned to the pontoon where Li Yan was.

The pontoon bridge is the key to victory in today's battle. Once captured by the Zhuthiers, the Zhuthief troops and horses on the north bank of the Wei River can enter the battlefield on the south bank through the pontoon bridge to support the battle of Weinan City in Tianjin.

Moreover, in order to guard the pontoon bridge, Li Yan also brought his subordinates who were not familiar with water to guard the bridge. In his hurry, it might be difficult to escape intact. Once the sand boat was allowed to approach, Li Yan's own life would be in danger!

In order for Li Yan to escape unscathed, she had to fight Zhu Cixiang no matter what!

"Charge! Charge up from the side of that sand ship!" The red lady's ferocious energy suddenly came up, and she shouted loudly, "I don't believe it also has cannons on the side!
Chapter completed!
