More than 4,000 soldiers quickly passed through Xianyuan River, and soon arrived at the foot of Lanxi City along the hillside. Lanxi County Town had been covered by muttered artillery. In just fifteen minutes, the officers and soldiers had already attacked the small Lanxi County Town.
Two hundred and twenty rockets and more than a hundred explosive bombs were poured out, blowing half of Lanxi County to pieces.
Those who kept shouting
The holy soldiers who were "innocent mothers, descended from heaven to earth, fearless from fire and water, and invulnerable to swords and guns" were beaten like swarms of headless flies, running around.
No one blocked the coastal defense regiment. Only dozens of arrows missed a section of the city wall and flew noisily for two rounds. There was no news after two rounds. The frontline observers who had been following the soldiers at the forefront noticed this resistance force and immediately
Signal to the back.
The observation post on the top of Dengxian Mountain has been receiving their messages at any time and immediately sent the intelligence and coordinates to the artillery position.
After receiving the news, the artillery commander immediately ordered the two long guns and four field guns that had just been loaded to adjust the firing unit and aim at that section of the city wall to output firepower.
It took less than five minutes from the time the observers sent the signal to the time the artillery shells landed on that section of the city wall. Under such fire cover, the coastal defense regiment quickly rushed to the south gate tower of Lanxi County.
Although the city was filled with smoke and fire, it was like hell, but the tower was so lucky that it did not suffer a fatal blow and still stood in front of the coastal defense regiment.
As a copper whistle sounded, the coastal defense regiment separated on both sides and used platoons as units to suppress the surviving defenders on both sides of the city tower with fire.
"Aim! Fire!" A row of muskets came over, and even the most fearless and brave warriors in green scarves did not dare to raise their heads.
The companion lying next to him had his head smashed open like a pumpkin, with blood and brains splattering everywhere. This was the best warning that made everyone feel frightened, and they felt that it was okay to stay aloof for a while.
Under the cover of their comrades on both sides, a platoon of soldiers piled a huge, bulging package of explosives on the city gate.
Six wooden sticks were tied to each explosive bag, holding it tightly against the heavy wooden door. The rest of the people retreated first, and the large troops covering both sides also quickly retreated to a safe area.
The remaining two people lit the fuse, stared at it burning for a while, then turned around and ran away. They ran behind the bunker in one breath and waited quietly.
The suffocating silence was as if Lanxi County had turned into an ink painting at this moment, with people and scenery, but no sound at all. Even the sounds of insects and birds had disappeared.
Suddenly, a ball of fire tore the painting apart, tearing it into pieces, and countless fragments scattered in the smoke and firelight.
People and scenery turned into powder along with the fragments. When the dust fell to the ground, a dozen officers of the Coast Defense Regiment raised their command swords and shouted: "Coast Defense Regiment, advance!" The shrill sound of copper horns sounded in every corner of the battlefield.
Like countless arrows flying towards Lanxi County.
Thousands of soldiers from the Coast Guard Regiment leapt to their feet, armed with bayonet-mounted muskets, and roared toward Lanxi County.
They gathered into a navy blue wave, moving forward inexorably and unstoppably. They crossed over the ruins of the city wall and rushed into the streets, their shining bayonets like a whirlwind opening the way.
A small number of warriors in green scarves stood up and waved their swords and guns, ready to fight to the death. The soldiers of the Coast Guard immediately formed a line and opened fire on the bandits.
When the sharp lead bullets made them panic, the soldiers rushed forward with their muskets, and the cold bayonets pierced each of their chests without hesitation, causing blood to flow and screams to come.
Some thieves occupied the courtyard and resisted. They blocked the doors and windows, hid behind the courtyard wall and fired arrows. The soldiers of the Coastal Defense Regiment quickly pushed in the 95 field guns and fired round after round at the courtyard wall and gate until
Blast the courtyard wall and gate into rubble, leaving the thieves with nowhere to hide, and then rush forward in a furious rush.
Ten miles away from Lanxi County, there is a treasure furnace mountain. It is said that the furnace used by some gods to refine elixirs was left here and turned into a mountain.
Standing on the top of the mountain, you can have a panoramic view of the entire Lanxi County from a distance. Fang La stood on the top of the mountain, holding an exquisite monocular telescope, observing every part of Lanxi County.
But the more he looked at him, the darker his face became. In the end, he threw the binoculars hard on the ground, and his hands behind his back were shaking slightly.
"I'm so angry! The officers and soldiers actually have such sharp firearms, why can't we buy them?" Fang La stared at his close confidants with wolf-like eyes.
"Holy Duke, these are important weapons of the country. Those corrupt officials may not be able to get them. Otherwise, as long as these people have money, they can even sell them to their own parents. How could they not sell them to us? Subordinates
I heard that Hunjun has extremely strict control over these things." Fang La asked disdainfully: "Is there anything in this world that money can't buy?" He is a famous lacquer garden owner in western Zhejiang.
The owner of the lacquer garden owns a lot of mountains and forests, grows lacquer trees, and then cuts the trees to extract lacquer. As a famous lacquer garden owner in western Zhejiang, he must have a lot of mountainous land, and he is considered a big landowner; secondly, there are many people who help him work
Paint households who work hard to make money.
The two combined together make the place truly powerful. Coupled with his family's ancestral craft - preaching, he is simply the local emperor in this area.
As for him living a good life, but wanting to rebel, it may be because he has higher pursuits, or it may be that he is rebellious.
Historically, Zhu Meng used Huashi Gang to harm the southeast. The central area was in the Taihu Lake area. Even if it harmed it, it would only harm the Hangzhou area.
Fang La was still the master of his lacquer garden in western Zhejiang. He was a powerful local man and the leader of a certain sect, and he was not affected at all.
If you want to rebel, you will probably see that the southeast is being disturbed and there are complaints and public sentiment, so you feel that your destiny is yours.
Now that he is continuing to embark on the road of rebellion, he must not change his original intention. Human nature is like this, and changes in the external environment only make him have some scruples.
It's just that Fang La's name has long been on someone's small book. When he took the throne, he sent many spies and spent a lot of energy to sneak into Fang La's core team, and then
"Assisting Zuo" he once again realized that his destiny was already there. Liangshanbo was renamed Juyeze, and because it was connected to Jishui, directly out of the sea, and connected to the canal, it became an important water transportation hub. The imperial court attached great importance to this place.
Coupled with the implementation of the New Deal, the country was strong and the people were prosperous, and the local area was peaceful. The group of strongmen who originally gathered here to start an uprising were eliminated as soon as they showed up.
The one who dealt with them was Huo Anguo, who was supported by Zhang Shuye and Liu Kai and even dared to touch Xianyuan Kong Mansion - there was no need for Zhang Shuye, a fierce man, to take action.
The remaining three bandits must play their due role. This has always been Zhao Si's principle. Even a toilet chip or a piece of toilet paper should be useful.
It's just that at this time, Fang La didn't know the historical mission Zhao Si had given him. He just felt annoyed, angry and afraid.
The fierce offensive of more than 3,000 people from the Coastal Defense Regiment made him deeply realize that his previously thought that he had strong soldiers and strong horses, and his strength was actually just a reflection in the mirror.
In the face of the cruel reality, he was vulnerable. After venting his anger, Fang La also realized that he had lost his temper - under the current circumstances, it was not appropriate to shake people's hearts.
He took a deep breath and said calmly.
"Now Lanxi County is not safe. Once Lanxi is lost, Shouchang and Sui'an will be wide open. Now the officers and soldiers on the northern front are marching into Jiande, and the situation is not optimistic. With all the natural dangers on the north and south sides, we will have no room for maneuver. Dear loyal friends,
What do you think?" Everyone looked at each other, and no one said anything for a long time.
Fang La snorted coldly, and a confidant came forward and said loudly: "Holy Duke, why don't you go back to Qingxi Cave first and take command from the center." While everyone was talking among themselves and not paying attention, the confidant vomited lightly.
Word: "Bangyuan Cave." Fang La nodded understandingly and said, "Then let's go back to Qingxi Cave first." This chapter has been completed!
