The two cannons were quickly escorted to the artillery base on the south bank of Beixi Bridge by Liu Jinzhong's godson Liu Erhu. Together with the red cannons that had been fighting there for a long time without hitting a single shot, they all turned their muzzles and pointed them at Beixi.

pontoon, and then started firing off the cannons together!

With the three sounds of "Boom, Boom, Boom", three iron bullets weighing about ten kilograms roared towards the pontoon bridge, and then landed together in the water of the North Stream of the Rongjiang River, stirring up

There were three tall and large water pillars, which startled the "Eight Banners Soldiers" on the Beixi Bridge.

Everyone turned to look at the area where the shell fell into the water...it was only thirty or forty steps away from the pontoon, so it didn't seem too far off!

"Don't panic!"

Zhu Hesheng was not afraid at all, and even said plausibly: "The cannons used by Qingyao were made by my Ming Dynasty in the Chongzhen year... These cannons are ministers of my Ming Dynasty, and they cannot hurt me, the great grandson of Zhu San of the Ming Dynasty."

, so you don’t need to panic.”

This is a bit fantasy to say!

The cannon has a spiritual power, and it also remembers the good of Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty? How many civil servants and generals of the Ming Dynasty defected to the Qing Dynasty and became second ministers, and some even fell in love with Dashun and became three ministers! This cold and hard person

Does Cannon know more reason than those dignified ministers?

However, Zhu Hesheng was so convinced that he didn't even frown while riding on the long-legged horse - he didn't really believe that the cannon had a spirit, but he did believe that the cannon had a reason, the truth!

The cannon must follow the truth, because the truth is within the range of the cannon!

According to the truth of cannons, those Hongyi cannons placed in the forts on the south bank of Beixi have only a small chance of hitting the pontoon bridge. Zhu Hesheng had already observed the Qing army's artillery forts, and the distance between the artillery forts and the pontoon bridge was

It's a bit far away, and it's too high relative to the pontoon, so there's no way to aim directly, so you can only shoot from top to bottom.

It is impossible for a cannonball to bounce up when it falls in the water. If it hits the bridge deck of a pontoon bridge, it will definitely hit directly through the water and will not bounce up. So there is no need to worry about the damage of the ricochet. The only possible casualties are

It was hit by a cannonball falling from above.

The probability of this is probably only slightly higher than that of Zhu He Shenghun Chuan, so it should not happen...

Of course Zhu Hesheng doesn't know how to give math classes to his subordinates now, so he uses some fantasy to deceive people.

After telling everyone the principle of "there are no two loyal gun masters", Zhu Hesheng began to give orders to Lin Ahu and Su Zhanshan: "Ahu, the shield convoy moves forward twenty steps! Zhanshan, carry the cannon two steps forward.

Ten steps!

Other brothers, all dismount with me, raise their shields... We lead the horses forward twenty steps!

All hammer throwers, have your hammers and fire breaks ready!"

Of course, dismounting is to avoid cannons and arrows.

Although according to the cannon truth, the probability of being hit while riding on horseback is exactly the same as the probability of being hit by dismounting and walking, dismounting and walking can still give him a little more sense of security.

In addition, after dismounting, it is less likely to be hit by the Qing army's bows and arrows.

After dismounting, Zhu Hesheng first took out Zhang Xiao's round rattan shield and put it on the forearm of his left arm (there is a rope loop on the inside of the rattan shield). Then he took out the fire fold, took it with his left hand, and then pulled off the top sheath.

, blew a few breaths to make the fire flames brighter. Then he raised the shield with his left arm, held the reins with his right hand, and started to push forward following the shield chariot in front.

And he was still advancing against the shells fired by the three red cannons!

This shocked Liu Jinzhong and his Qing soldiers!

They are not afraid of cannons!

This is advancing against the artillery shells of the Qing Dynasty artillery team!

Such bravery... Even if Batulu Obai, the number one in the Qing Dynasty, is not here, he should be a similar fierce man, right?

"Boom boom boom..."

Three more cannon shots interrupted Liu Jinzhong's thoughts. Why did he turn his attention to the pontoon bridge? He only saw three water columns rising suddenly twenty or thirty steps away from the pontoon bridge. It was obvious that the three blind cannons were fired again.

Off!

We can't get the support of the three red cannons on our side, and the opponent uses three shield vehicles to cover the advance of the cannons. Seeing that he is about to force his own infantry back... This is really a bit urgent.

People!

Moreover, the enemy clearly only had 300 people, but they were suppressed by the majestic formation and forced more than 2,000 people on their side to retreat steadily. If the little emperor in Beijing knew about this, would Long Yan be furious? Even if he didn't behead him in public.

, we also have to beat up Liu Jinzhong’s general.

"Mingfeng!"

The more he thought about it, the more anxious Liu Jinzhong became. He loudly called He You and He Mingfeng, the leader of his Zuo Xie Xie, to come forward.

"General, do you want your general to lead the cavalry to charge him?" He You was also a tiger general. When he arrived in front of Liu Jinzhong, he couldn't wait to ask for a fight.

Liu Jinzhong waved his hand and frowned: "There are few rebels, but they occupy the dangerous position of the pontoon... They will not rush out easily. Now they just want to seize the bridge head south of the Beixi pontoon bridge, and then use it to

Use it as a stronghold, use cannons and mines to push us back, so as to occupy a place for their follow-up troops to line up!

However, we have many soldiers but cannot deploy them. If we use small groups of elite soldiers to attack in turns, they will easily be defeated one by one by using mines."

His analysis was actually just a figment of his imagination. Zhu Hesheng didn't think that much. He just got addicted to fighting and refused to stop.

However, Liu Jinzhong's younger brother He You still believed in his elder brother's analysis. He frowned and asked: "Headquarters, what should we do?"

Liu Jinzhong said: "Look here, I'll go to the artillery base to see how those blind men fire cannons? Remember, don't be led near the bridgehead by the rebels. If they put the cannon on the bridgehead, you will command the troops."

The horse steps back again."

"Retreat again?" He You reminded, "If you retreat again, you will retreat into the city!"

Liu Jinzhong thought for a while and then said: "Let's retreat to the city first..." He gritted his teeth and said, "You wait, when I command the three red cannons to hit their tips, you immediately

Lead the infantry and cavalry into the battle, and be sure to snatch the Beixi Floating Bridge back from me!"

He paused and then lowered his voice: "Beixi Floating Bridge is a shortcut for us to return to our home base of Chaozhou Prefecture..."

He You understood what Liu Jinzhong meant. The commander-in-chief of Chao Town already knew that the situation was not good and wanted to retreat to his lair to support his troops!

"Don't worry, the head of the town, your subordinates know what to do!"

Liu Jinzhong nodded and without saying anything else, he led dozens of soldiers and went straight to the artillery fort.

When he got outside the fort, he got off his horse and walked in. He heard two people arguing inside, one of whom was his godson Mr. Liu.

The other person seemed to be the commander of the artillery team in Dongguan Town - Chaozhou Town did not have red cannons, but Dongguan Town, which governed the Humen Fortress, did have red cannons.

Therefore, Mi Sihan transferred eight red cannons from Dongguan Town, each commanded by two generals, and divided them into two teams, each with four cannons. One team was used to guard Lianjiang and bombard the capital of Guiyu;

The other team came to Jieyang County.

The one who is currently arguing with Commander Liu is the Commander from Dongguan who led the artillery team to Jieyang County.

"What the fuck, you little bastard, what kind of cannon can you shoot? You've been shooting for two or three hours, and you missed one shot. Are you blind? If you still miss, I will chop you with a knife!"

The person who was furious was Liu Jinzhong’s godson, Mr. Liu, and these words reached Mr. Liu’s heart!

The gunsmith in Dongguan Town is always blind!

"Look at people... they hammered the Jieyang Beiguan Gate Tower dozens of times, and the tower was filled with holes. If you can't even hit a damn shot, what do you do for food? What do you do anymore?

If you miss, believe it or not, I will chop you with a knife?"

Yes, it should be chopped with a knife! Liu Jinzhong was thinking about killing people, but he stopped and wanted to hear the artillery commander's explanation.

"This, this, this has nothing to do with me... This, this cannon, it is spiritual! The four cannons I brought were all cast by Emperor Chongzhen under the command of Xiong Wencan. They are all cannons from the Ming Dynasty.

, so I can’t bear to attack the third prince Zhu and the third grandson Zhu..."

What kind of fallacy is this? This cannon has become a spirit?

Liu Jinzhong's face was as gloomy as water!

"Are you talking nonsense? You know nothing about cannons? Besides, everyone eats the inside and outside, let alone cannons?" Mr. Liu is also a fool. He clearly knows that others are talking nonsense, but he still goes along with the nonsense.

When Liu Jinzhong heard this, his face felt hot... Wasn't he the one who was cheating? He was an officer of the Ming Dynasty, and he was from the Yongwei camp of Emperor Chongzhen!

Eat the food of the Zhu family, wear the clothes of the Zhu family... In the end, he followed Ma Degong to capture Emperor Hongguang of the Zhu family, and now he is helping the Tatars to kill the third prince and grandson of Zhu, in order to defeat Chongzhen.

The emperor's empress! Is this what he did as a human being? Does he dare to do this in the name of "Jin Zhong"?

Liu Jinzhong felt a little uncomfortable when he thought of these things.

At this time, the commander of the artillery team spoke again, "I'm not talking nonsense, this is true... Look at the inscription on this cannon! You can read it if you don't believe it!"

"Is the emperor conferring the title of General Protecting the Country? Has this cannon been conferred the title?"

"That's right! This was granted by Emperor Chongzhen, and this cannon belonged to the ministers of the previous dynasty...and it was also a loyal cannon! The one facing him must be Prince Zhu's third son. This cannon is powerful and cannot hit.

"

"But it's the Qing Dynasty now, why don't you remove this inscription?"

"It can't be shoveled. If it is shoveled, it will explode! Alas, the cannons in Dongguan Town know more loyalty than people!"

The two of them were still talking nonsense, but the speaker didn't mean it, but the listener sounded like they meant it!

Liu Jinzhong was already a little annoyed, so he walked in with a green face, strode up to the commander of the artillery team, and shouted, "You cannon shooter, who are you talking about?"

"I said..." The boss turned around and saw a very angry Liu Jinzhong, and then blurted out: "Mr. Liu!"

Yes, I am talking about you, Liu Jinzhong!

Liu Jinzhong also had a bad temper. He immediately jumped up and pulled out his waist knife with a "clang" sound and put it on the chief's neck.

"No, no, no... I'm talking about a cannon, a cannon... This cannon is a loyal minister, not you. Really, you are a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty..."

This is what I said... Even this Pao knows loyalty, but Liu Jinzhong is not as good as Pao and becomes a lackey of the Qing Dynasty!

Liu Jinzhong immediately became angry and glared at the boss with a fierce look, as if he wanted to kill someone. The boss still wanted to explain and stammered: "Mr. Liu, please don't get me wrong. I really

Talking about cannons, the red cannons in Dongguan Town are all evil, remnants of the previous dynasty...ahhhh..."

When Liu Jinzhong got angry, he pulled the knife in his hand... and pulled it around his neck. What else could he do? All he saw was a bloody cut on the neck of the artillery commander who was talking nonsense, and he was still hurtling out.
