Chapter 435 Politics still need to be coordinated and discussed

The gunshots were still sounding like a bean, and the bullets were like rain. Coupled with the explosion of the shells of General Weiyuan's artillery and small-caliber mortar cannons, a mass of smoke rose up on the hillside outside the Great Kinmen.

After the gunshots became more sparse, the shouts of killing followed.

The Qing Yao spearman wearing blue cloth armor held a spear and carried a landblock on his back. Under the cover of the archers, he once again launched a wave of attacks on the Ming army's "earth trench line"!

The ten thousand new army officers and soldiers under Sun Sike's command, as the commander, rushed into the "earth trench line" outside the Da Kinmen Gate like storm waves, retreating one after another. As dusk came, the Qing army's offensive had become even more crazy. They had already suffered huge casualties, and the Qing army's corpses in blue cloth armor fell on the hillside in a row. In the second trench in front of the Da Kinmen Gate, there were even layers of shocking. However, the subsequent troops were still coming in waves.

Sun Sick's flag was once again inserted into the Great Kinmen Gate. He himself brought the two governors, two counselors, and more than ten first-class guards who were ordered to supervise the battle outside the Great Kinmen Gate.

More than a dozen first-class guards were wearing yellow jackets, carrying knives, and standing in a row behind the second trench outside the Great Kinmen.

The retreating Qing soldiers were blocked when they arrived here, and the officers led the team were all caught and taken to Sun Sike. If Sun Sike thought he was not good at fighting, he would have to lose his head on the spot.

Rows of long spears had been inserted into the Great Kinmen, and a bloody head was hung on each spear.

The retreating soldiers will be re-formed, led by the Goshha or the imperial guards designated by Sun Sick, retreated to the back and lined up again, waiting for the next round of offensive... Although the sky is getting darker and darker, the well-known figures in the Qing army's Jiangnan camp, including Sun Sick, are unwilling to give up.

Because they knew very well that once this bloody battle was lost this afternoon, the new Eight Banners soldiers below would have no knowledge and would have no chance to steal Jiangning City. Moreover, in order to launch this wave of offensive, Sun Sike had already sent out all the money he could send out. It can be said that he had already given all his money. If he could not win, he would have to repay the king with one death!

After witnessing the bloody battle of two or three hours near the front, Sun Sike's face was already very ugly. He stood motionless outside the Great Kinmen Gate, completely disregarding the Ming army rockets flying over from time to time, but just staring at the front.

His subordinates had done their best. They were coaxed by silver, forced by the supervision team, and were stimulated by the hope of looting Jiangning City, and launched wave after wave of charge.

But he had no way to break through the seemingly thin "earth trench defense line" defended by the Ming army... He never dreamed that the trenches and earth walls would have such good bulletproof effects, nor did he expect that the dense firepower of the flintlock rifle would be so powerful, and he did not expect that the long knife could be placed on the barrel of the flintlock rifle and turned it into a short spear.

Although this short spear is not as powerful as a long spear and a large blade when fighting against the enemy as a cold weapon. However,... the thief is not moral, and they will never be able to be moral in their lives. They will load ammunition into the chamber of the flintlock rifle and then fight in hand-to-hand combat! Moreover, they also have a thunder hammer that can be blown with a rope. Before launching a bayonet assault, they will smash a wave of grenade hammers, and then charge with the flintlock rifle with bullets and bayonets.

With such a fighting style, let alone the New Eight Banners under Sun Sike's hands, you will still be defeated if you let the old Manchu white-armored soldiers who were invincible in the world!

In Sun Sike's sight, he watched another wave of officers and soldiers rushing forward, being repelled by the unethical Ming army's flintlock spearmen. He suddenly thought of something and shouted: "See, come here!"

"Yeah!"

Goshha, who were tall and slender, responded and reached Sun Sick in a few steps.

This Goshha was selected by Sun Sick from the Green Camp soldiers from Gansu, and was named Yue Shenglong.

Sun Sic gave Yue Shenglong a newly written note, "This is my note... You take him and do everything possible to get through. This note is related to the survival of the Qing Dynasty, so you must hand it over to the emperor!"

Yue Shenglong was stunned for a moment and said nothing more. He just took Sun Sike's confession with his trembling hands, then made a thousand-handed sentence, and turned around and left.

......

At the other end of the front line, Zhuge Zhengyang sat upright on the stool, and next to him was a rocket launcher battalion.

The eighteen six-unit rocket launchers were arranged in two rows, and one shot was fired at Da Kinmen and Sifangcheng... not a volley, but a shot.

If it is a volley, the eighteen six-unit rocket launchers can fire 108 sugar powder rockets at one time. It takes less than half a minute to complete the loading and a second volley. In other words, two waves of volleys can be fired in a quarter of an hour, and two hundred and sixteen rockets can be fired, while one hour has eight quarters of an hour, and one thousand seventy-eight hundred rockets can be fired!

However, this kind of attack is too ammunition, so that the "local Ming army" cannot fight like this... Although the output of sugar is high enough, the rocket itself is a handicraft product and is not a product of the machine industry. It depends on copper smiths. The blacksmith holds the hammer and sweats profusely, and beats it one by one, and the output cannot be high.

The handicraft workshops for producing these rockets are far away in Foshan, Guangdong, and the products they produce have to be sent to the front lines of Jiangnan and Jiangxi.

So Zhuge Zhengyang didn't have many rockets on hand... He let go and fired it out in an hour. If he couldn't kill it, it would be a big trouble.

Because the Ming army now relies heavily on rocket launchers to output firepower, in a town artillery battalion, there is only one team of field cannons, with only six bronze cannons with five kilograms of ammunition.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! And it is not very useful, because no one looks down on their power... But bronze cannons are more efficient when firing, and can not only fire iron or lead-tin, but also stone cannons, so as long as there is gunpowder, the bronze cannon can be continuously fired.

Once the rocket launcher has no rockets, it will be a pile of scrap copper and iron... Therefore, Zhuge Zhengyang must be able to fully open fire at the most critical moment.

At this time, his attention was no longer on the "earth trench defense line", but around the tomb of Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty.

Although you may be able to defeat Sun Sike with silver bullets after dark.

But he is Zhuge who "uses troops like a god". The way of fighting with one million taels of silver to buy the enemy is too "Zhuge", so Zhuge Zhengyang arranged a raid!

The Zu Da, who took the lead in Jiangning Chengnei, led a group of Hakka soldiers who were good at fighting mountains and fighting northern Guangdong, raided Zhu Yuanzhang's tomb!

According to the old man himself, he once took his men out from the west of Nanjing's inner city and climbed through Zijin Mountain several times - this was to keep in touch with the Qing army's Jiangnan camp on Zijin Mountain after Wu Sangui's men entered Jiangning City.

So the old man volunteered two days ago and proposed such a plan to "rescue Zhu Yuanzhang"!

As long as the sun and moon flags flutter over the big tomb, even if the battle between the Purple Gold Mountain Jiangnan Camp was won... Zhu Hetian saved the money! Because those money was actually used to redeem Zhu Yuanzhang, the "dead hostage". If Zhu Yuanzhang's tomb was robbed, the "dead hostage" would be saved. Why should the "killers" collect money? Send it home with ten taels of silver, which is already a great favor!

But can the raid from Zu Da succeed?

Zhuge Zhengyang was still staring at the mountain in the distance.

Suddenly, a dazzling green flame suddenly flew into the air, and then another bang blasted out a large ball of green flame - this was blown out by gunpowder mixed with copper rust!

This is a signal of the success of the raid!
