Chapter 354 Shelling

"Boom, boom, boom!" The sound of the deafening cannon vented Tang He's anger.

From being attacked by Gaoyou Mansion, robbed by warships, and surrounded by Zhongshan, Tang He's childhood memories all disappeared deep in his mind. Instead, he was deeply angry, and he didn't plot against me. He was not good at conspiring with me, Tang He, especially his former friends, even more so!

"Brother, there was a sudden sound of artillery outside, bombarding our city wall!" Zhu Yuanzhang received the report.

He had already heard that the location where the cannon sounded should be where the big ship stayed.

Time was tight and he captured the other party's big ship. Zhu Yuanzhang originally wanted to move the cannons on the ship to the wall of Yingtianfu, but he was afraid that Tang He would go there and find something wrong. As a result, he lost this opportunity. Now, he heard the sound, and it was obvious that the warship was taken away by the other party again.

"Let our artillery fire blow the ship off!" Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Artillery is definitely not Zhang Shicheng's patent. Zhu Yuanzhang's subordinates also have many cannons.

These cannons are all cast of copper and have a high cost, but their performance is absolutely impossible to compare with Zhang Shicheng's cannons.

Tang He directed the gunners and used the God of War Cannon to bombard the city walls of Yingtian Mansion. The gunners were captured once and were full of hatred and burst out with their greatest potential. One after another, solid shells were stuffed into the cannon chamber, aiming and shooting! They were tireless.

At the same time, the sailors who were lowered from the cabin had already started to ignite the fire and preheat the boiler. It didn't start for a few days. It took half an hour for the water in the boiler to boil.

This half hour was handed over to Tang He.

Zhu Xian looked at Tang He with red eyes and did not dare to dissuade him.

However, my mission has been completed.

"General Tang, this warship cannot accommodate our army. We have two thousand people left you a few hundred teams. The rest of the people have to rush back to Changzhou to report." Zhu Xian said.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Tang He said: "But I don't need your 100-man team. Now I still have more than fifty people, more than one hundred sailors, and this warship is in hand. No matter how many people come out, I'm not afraid."

Tang He's words are not exaggerated. Now there are only a few war god cannons shooting. If the other party dares to come out, it is definitely the time for the scattered fireworks to show their power.

"Then let's say goodbye." Zhu Xian said. As Zhang Shicheng's subordinates, their biggest characteristic is that they are good at defeating the more with less. Moreover, it is definitely not an exaggeration. Their weapon is their capital to dominate this era.

As soon as Zhu Xian left, the artillery fire on the top of the city began to roar.

"Okay, I dare to show my power to my old Tang, so let you see how powerful we are." Tang He shouted: "Brothers, bomb me in the direction of the other party's artillery fire!"

The gunner immediately adjusted the angle skillfully. The ship had not started yet. The stationary cannon fired the opponent's stationary target, and they were all 80% sure.

When the God of War cannon sounded again, he saw the opponent's cannon and immediately became mute.

Tang He did this just to show his power. The cannons and projectiles fired on the city just now did not even get caught on the side of his ship.

Under his tyranny, Yingtian Mansion was trembling.

The defenders on the top of the city could not believe that the other party's accurate head was so high.

As soon as they opened fire, the opponent accurately hit the gun, with an error of no more than two steps. Some gunners were directly hit by the opponent's shells and were immediately smashed to pieces.

The power of iron shells falling from the sky is amazingly great.

Zhu Yuanzhang braved the opponent's artillery fire and stepped onto the city. Seeing that he was completely suppressed, he couldn't help but be furious.

"Ballman, fire it for me again!" Zhu Yuanzhang shouted.

Suddenly, a guard next to him rushed forward to protect Zhu Yuanzhang's body.

Another round of shells flew over.

A terrifying sound flew into his ears, and then a huge vibration came from his feet. The shells almost wiped his side and flew over. The guard who had just protected him was cut off half of his head.

Zhu Yuanzhang lowered his head and looked at the place where the guards fell. It was the shell.

After picturing with a torch, Zhu Yuanzhang was happy: the other party's shells were actually cast with fine iron! It seems that Zhang Shicheng's army is really not short of iron!

Although I was hit by a lot of shells in the Yingtian Mansion wall, I also gained a lot of iron. This is a free soup for myself.

Although the warship was captured, just in case, Hua Yun did not move the things on the ship. Besides, the shells were all contained in boxes. Before unpacking the boxes, no one knew what was inside. In their impression, the shells were ground into stones.

"Boom!" Suddenly, the solid city wall of Yingtian Mansion finally couldn't bear the blow and collapsed.

"General Tang, the shells are used up." A gunner shouted.

What? It's over so soon? Tang He also wanted to completely collapse the entire Yingtian Mansion wall, which seemed to be very difficult.

"General Tang, the boiler has been preheated and the ship can be started at any time." A sailor in the cabin said.

"Okay, let's go back to Gaoyou Mansion." Tang He said.

If the shells were not gone, if it weren't for the safety of the base, Tang Hezhen planned to attack him for three days and three nights.

"Woo!" The whistle sounded through the sky, and the steam engine ship finally started.

"Check the damage to the city wall, and call on migrant workers to repair it tomorrow, and dig out all the shells." Zhu Yuanzhang ordered.

Although there are not many of these shells, there are hundreds of them. If all of them are made of fine iron, it will be at least enough for him to create thousands of spears.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Dongfang, which showed white belly, wondering how Xu Da was? Did he succeed?

At this moment, Xu Da was being chased like a stray dog.

There were less than 200 people around me, and the rest were shot down by the sound of muskets coming from behind.

Who said that Zhang Shicheng's men have weak field skills? Now he is being chased like a rabbit and running around. If the other party really fights with him, he may not be worse than his elite, or even stronger!

Xu Da had no time to think about what kind of tactics and troops to use to fight Zhang Shicheng's army. He only knew that he had to seize the time and was about to arrive in Chuzhou.

To the west of Yangzhou is the boundary of Chuzhou. The biggest feature here is that there are many mountains. You are familiar with the terrain here. Once you enter, you are equivalent to returning home. If the pursuers behind you dare to come in, let them taste their own power!

Set an ambush and kill the other party! This idea slowly emerged in Xu Da's mind.

Although Chang Yuchun was brave, he knew that chasing him like this was definitely not a solution. Although he was constantly destroying the other party, it was impossible to wipe them out completely, especially since there were always behind cavalry acting as suicide squads, which greatly delayed his actions.

After passing through Yangzhou, Chang Yuchun hesitated and had already chased his territory. Will he still chase after him? What can the Yangzhou defenders react?

Chang Yuchun had a sudden inspiration and asked for help from the defenders of Yangzhou!

Anyway, my identity is now an official army, and the ones who are pursuing Zhu Yuanzhang are also under the command of Zhu Yuanzhang, which is to do business for the court!

The defenders in Yangzhou did not dare to go out. None of them could afford to provoke these two troops, but they did not dare to offend Chang Yuchun too much, so they added hundreds of war horses to him as support.

Chang Yuchun was satisfied with the Yangzhou garrison's efforts to do this. Now, with his pursuing troops, he naturally had a much easier time.

In this way, I chased me to the boundary of Chuzhou.

Looking at the person in front of him, he disappeared into the mountains. Chang Yuchun did not pursue him again, ending this crazy pursuit.

The cavalry was unable to move in the mountains and had a blocked vision in the mountains, and the advantages of the Tianque gun could not be used. Moreover, he was not familiar with the terrain there. Although Chang Yuchun was brave, he was not mindless. He immediately ordered the retreat.

Xu Da, let you go this time!

Chang Yuchun led his own troops and obtained the most realistic test after this actual combat. The troops he trained not only can attack from afar, but also fight in close combat. Even if he fights face to face, he will never be at a disadvantage.

When he led his army back to Killing Port, Tang He also returned to Gaoyou Mansion. The various storms involved in this rescue operation came to an end, but the war in the south had just begun.

Tang He shelled Yingtian Prefecture, and Chang Yuchun led his army to pursue Xu Da. In this way, the situation of peace between the two armies was finally broken. Although it was temporarily calm, there was a deep danger hidden.

In Hangzhou city, Zhang Yang received all kinds of rewards and immediately saw the problem keenly.

Now, he never believed that Zhu Yuanzhang was a reckless young master Zhu. Or, at the beginning, Zhu Yuanzhang did, but people always change, and those who are in the upper hand always have many helpless things.

No matter how you look at it, Zhu Yuanzhang suffered a great loss in the incident at this time, especially Tang He who bombarded Yingtian Mansion was simply a slap in the face. Can Zhu Yuanzhang swallow his anger?

Xu Da, a general under Zhu Yuanzhang, also suffered a defeat. With the personality of these people, they will definitely be able to move.

Moreover, the court also sent a commendation, saying that he had just surrendered himself, was loyal to the emperor and patriotism, and resolutely joined the battle to eliminate the rebels. This was a blessing for the province and the court.

This is simply adding fuel to the fire. I am afraid that the people in the court are just provoking themselves to fight with these Red Turban Army and consume their strength.

However, if the court wants to take some practical actions, it cannot make any move. Now, the situation in the court is in a mess.

Zhang Yang knew that he wanted to develop the economy with peace of mind. When his strength was strong enough, he might have a miscarriage. However, he was not afraid. Since Zhu Yuanzhang was so ignorant, he would destroy him first and expand his territory!
