These soldiers of the Tang Dynasty almost subconsciously used their bayonets to stab the wounded men from the Mirage who were rolling on the ground. In a few seconds, the area around the city gate became quiet.
Such skillful assassination movements made the Mirage soldiers seem to see themselves. This familiar feeling made them feel more intimate, and at the same time they instantly became well-behaved out of fear.
There is no way, they know very well how cruel they are, so they are extremely submissive to the existence that is more ferocious than themselves, for fear that the other party will show a more violent appearance.
What is strange is that the soldiers of the Tang Group who rushed into the city immediately spread a huge red flag on the ground. In the center of this flag, there was also a strange dragon-shaped emblem embroidered on it.
The Bloody Dragon Flag is the flag of the Datang Group and is also the air contact signal for the ground forces of the Datang Group - they had just received special training in this area before boarding the ship.
The moment they saw the airship, the 1st and 2nd Battalions knew that they had to notify the friendly forces overhead as soon as possible and tell them not to drop the bombs!
Others don't know, but they know the actual power of these airships - if they start bombing, Fengshun City will basically be doomed!
Completely different from airplanes, airships are very slow, so their bomb-dropping accuracy is really terrifying. Under certain circumstances, it can even hover and bomb, maintaining absolute accuracy.
The bomb's falling path is not a parabola, but close to a straight line - this attack characteristic makes the airship's attack accuracy almost comparable to that of guided weapons.
What's even more frightening is that most cities in this world are not reinforced concrete forests or made of cement. Their ability to withstand attacks is really limited.
A few hundred bombs are enough to completely turn Fengshun City into ruins. This is not an exaggeration at all, and it is even a bit modest.
Therefore, the 1st Battalion Commander and the 2nd Battalion Commander discussed and immediately made the decision to attack the city first and then prevent the Air Force from bombing.
Their progress was very fast. As for why they only rolled out one flag, the reason was that according to tradition, the flag of the 2nd Battalion was lost halfway.
The commander of the airship force, who was about to start the attack, soon saw the huge flag spread out on the ground, and then he canceled the attack order with some regret.
He had no choice but to bear the responsibility of bombing friendly forces, so he could only order the airship to stand by and wait for news from the ground.
"Wait a little longer! Look at the progress of the friendly forces on the ground! I really want to see... there are some enemy ships at the port..." Put down the telescope, stood at the front of the airship pod, and looked into the distance through the glass window
The commander of the airship unit at the harbor looked at his adjutant.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Send a signal to boat No. 4! Tell them that we are preparing to turn! The target harbor area... there are forts and battleships over there." The adjutant immediately understood,
He opened his mouth and ordered.
On the ground, the civilians of Zheng State were staring dumbfoundedly at a group of soldiers they had never seen before, hurriedly passing by their homes.
These soldiers wore gray-green military uniforms with iron helmets on their heads, carried slender rifles, and had a lot of things on them that swayed slightly with their steps.
Compared to soldiers, they looked more like guys selling groceries on the streets, and they didn't look like they had any combat capability at all.
They are as timid as mice, even leaning against the wall to check carefully at every turn to see if there is any danger.
They kept their heads down as much as possible when running, and they were in no way comparable to those big-headed soldiers carrying guns and marching in neat steps.
But just like this, soldiers rushed into Fengshun City and arrested hordes of Mirage troops. No scary gunshots were even heard in the city.
The soldiers of the Mirage Kingdom, who used to be fierce and evil in the past, now have their heads drooped, looking as listless and depressed as the soldiers of the Zheng Kingdom in the past.
Immediately afterwards, the somewhat frightened people of Zheng State were surprised to see that many of these strange and timid soldiers they looked down upon had a pair of black eyes.
The 1st Battalion Commander who walked into the city gate took the statistical report from a non-commissioned officer at the battalion headquarters, and then looked at the numbers on it.
It was almost as much as he expected. Except for the dozens of Mirage soldiers who were killed at the city gate, and the dozen or so other Mirage soldiers who were injured and then stabbed to death, the remaining Mirage soldiers put down their weapons.
Surrender.
Counting commanders at all levels and other miscellaneous entourages, there were more than 3,100 prisoners in the Mirage Kingdom.
As for the Mirage navy docked in Fengshun City, they had all been sunk by a Bunas-class warship blocked outside the port.
The landing fleet of the 2nd Transport Regiment broke into the port directly. Now the 2nd Regiment is unloading. This time, their landing speed is much faster than that of the 1st Regiment.
The Mirage Kingdom had accumulated a total of enough food to feed 10,000 people for several months in Fengshun City. This food has now become the spoils of war for the Datang Group. Also captured were several sailing ships that had not had time to leave port to join the war.
In short, the battle of Fengshun City was supposed to last for several hours, but due to the sudden appearance of the airship, the battle ended in just over an hour.
The Datang Group captured Fengshun City without any blood and even occupied important facilities such as the fort and dock intact.
At this point, the six legions of the Mirage deployed in the direction of Fengshun City, totaling 9,000 troops, were completely wiped out by the Datang Group. The situation of the Mirage troops threatening the landing site at the same time from both sides was completely broken, and the Mirage army on Dongwan Island
It's already in danger.
At the same time, the Mirage Navy's fleet stationed on Dongwan Island also suffered heavy losses. More than 50 sail warships and 7 paddle steamers were sunk, and the sea control near Dongwan Island was completely lost.
Commander Xu Wuyuan, Xu Wu died in the rebellion at the age of 100. Fengshun City defender Xu Wuyuan surrendered, and the 2nd Regiment of the 1st Division of Datang Group was able to land at the port of Fengshun City.
The first stage of the battle ended with the Datang Group's victory. Although the airship unit, which participated in the battle for the first time, shocked the enemy as soon as it appeared and helped the ground forces achieve a great victory, the entire airship unit was unable to fight until the end.
Not dropping a bomb can be said to be extremely frustrating.
"Let the troops rest and recuperate as soon as possible! There are still many things to do..." The first thing the 2nd regimental commander did after landing was to adapt to the ground that was no longer shaking.
He watched his troops walk down the gangway and watched the ship's own crane unloading cars and heavy weapons and equipment onto the small dock, with an unhappy expression on his face.
The terminal facilities here are really poor, so bad that they seriously affect their unloading speed. But there is nothing that can be done, because there are too many things that need to be improved here...
