Daming pirates

So Shandong Commander-in-Chief Wu Anbang, Sichuan Deputy Commander-in-Chief Wang Hong, and Zhejiang Commander-in-Chief Gao Guozhu had no choice but to follow orders, order troops from all walks of life, and march towards Laizhou City.

After several trials, Kong Youde felt that the matter could not be delayed any longer. There was only one group of Fujian soldiers at the moment, and it was already difficult for him to deal with it. If it continued to be delayed, other officers and soldiers from all walks of life in the Ming Dynasty would probably come over.

At that time, he may lose his advantage in military strength, and with the Fujian officers and soldiers, he may not be able to win back this time.

So a few days later, Kong Youde finally made up his mind and led the main force to fight. He led his troops to the outside of the Fujian official army camp, and sent people to the Fujian camp to invite Yu Xiaotian to lead his army out for a decisive battle.

However, when Yu Xiaotian was in the camp, he ignored Kong Youde's request for a decisive battle and ignored the rebels' yelling and cursing outside the camp, thus leaving the rebels outside the camp.

Kong Youde led his troops and cursed outside the Fujian camp for a long time, but did not see Yu Xiaotian leading the troops to fight, so he sent some soldiers and began to directly attack the Fujian camp.

However, the Fujian camp was very stable, built solid defenses, and deployed a sufficient firepower network. After the rebels launched their attack, the camp immediately fired artillery and musketry, and the rebel attack was immediately repelled.

Wounded soldiers and corpses were scattered outside the camp.

Only then did Kong Youde truly see the power of the firearms of the Fujian soldiers and horses, so he had to call a truce that day. The next day, he sent someone to drag in three Hongyi cannons, set them up outside the Fujian camp, and began to bombard the Fujian camp.

However, the artillery in the Fujian camp was not weak at all, and they immediately fired back. As a result, after the artillery battle, the rebels were defeated again. Three Hongyi cannons, one of which was loaded with too much gunpowder, fired and exploded, surrounding the surrounding area.

The dozens of rebels who were standing were blown to pieces.

The other one was destroyed by a direct hit from the cannon of the Fujian officers and soldiers. The gunner also suffered heavy losses. Only one Hongyi cannon was left. Fortunately, it was not destroyed by the cannon of the Fujian officers and soldiers, so they had to drag the cannon far back.

, engaged in an artillery battle with Fujian officers and soldiers from a distance.

During this battle, the Fujian camp's camp fence was damaged in many places. The rebels launched another attack, but they were still defeated by the Yu family's soldiers with cannons and rifles, and they withdrew from the battle.

For several days in a row, Kong Youde went to the Fujian camp to call for formation, but Yu Xiaotian stood firm and refused to leave the camp, scolding and fighting. If he attacked, he would beat them in the face, and the rebels were unable to break into their camp.

, I can only look at the Fujian camp and cry out.

Kong Youde was very depressed. He wanted to take advantage of this moment to have a decisive battle with Yu Xiaotian, use his superior strength to defeat the damn Fujian soldiers in one fell swoop, seize a batch of sharp muskets in their hands, and also

With their sharp cannons, with these sharp weapons, we will be more confident in attacking Laizhou City next.

But it happened that after Yu Xiaotian led his troops, he suddenly retreated into the camp and refused to engage in a decisive battle with him in the wild. He huddled together like a turtle, which gave Kong Youdeqian a good tooth, but he still couldn't.

Xiakou.

Kong Youde is so depressed! He has never been so depressed since he rebelled. This battle was really frustrating. He wanted to fight, but he couldn't do anything if they didn't fight. Moreover, the Fujian officers and soldiers

,like

He was almost very good at building a camp. The camp was as solid as a mountain. He was anxious, but he had no idea what to say. Sending troops to attack was like sending troops to die. No matter how many people were there, they could only be cut down to the ground like grass.

After several attacks, he suffered thousands of casualties, but he didn't even touch the edge of his camp. This battle was really unwinnable.

Seeing that the Yu family's army refused to leave camp for a decisive battle, Kong Youde led his army to attack for several days, but did not get any advantage. He used cannons to bombard them. They also had cannons, and they were no worse than him. Although they were not as numerous as him, they still fought.

It was ruthless and accurate, and could reach far. Except for the red barbarian cannons he had that could engage his opponents, the rest of the cannons could not reach the Fujian camp at all.

If he placed the cannon too far forward, it would be as if he would die. Often he would not be able to fire two or three cannons before he would be directly destroyed by the cannons of the Fujian officers and soldiers.

He wanted to use cannons to blast away the Fujian camp, but he got so many wicker baskets from somewhere, filled them with sand and soil, and piled them in front of the gun emplacement for his cannons to blast away.

The bunker was destroyed. The bunker of wicker baskets and sand was very poor at absorbing the kinetic energy carried by the artillery shells. As long as it did not hit the middle of the artillery position directly, his Hongyi cannon could not directly destroy the cannons of the Fujian officers and soldiers.

As for the Hongyi cannons on his side, four of them were lost in a few days. Except for one whose chamber was blown up by himself, the other three were directly destroyed by the opponent.

If he goes down, within a few days, even his Hongyi cannon will be killed, and this battle will really be impossible to fight.

Therefore, Kong Youde had no choice but to stop his activities and decided to rest for two days before planning a decisive battle with Xiaotian.

But as soon as the war ceased on his side, the Fujian soldiers started to move. The cavalry and infantry came out of the camp one by one, either to sneak attack on the rebels or to go out of the camp to show off.

When Kong Youde mobilized troops and horses to go out to fight with him, these Fujian soldiers quickly retreated back to their camp. No matter how much they cursed, others acted as if they didn't hear them and ignored them.

.

As a result, Kong Youde was so angry that he was so angry that he immediately ordered the mobilization of the army and began to attack the Fujian camp.

Nearly ten thousand rebels surrounded the Fujian camp, and began to push their oars and carry large shields, like ants, towards the Fujian camp.

However, the Yu family soldiers and generals in the Fujian camp were not polite. They immediately fired a volley of artillery, specifically targeting the oars. At close range, they could be said to have hit each of them one by one.

The oar was immediately reduced to ashes and disintegrated in all directions, including the rebel soldiers who pushed the oar and the rebels hiding behind. They were also beaten to death or injured by the fragments.

As for the rebel infantry, they were like moving targets in front of the Yujia army's gunners. They were called out one by one. They didn't even use volleys. They just shot one by one, like a target shooting competition.

A rebel fell down outside the camp.

The gunmen took turns going into battle, and someone was counting them nearby. They laughed while fighting and argued about who had shot more people. They completely regarded this defensive battle as a live-fire shooting exercise, and used Wolf fang rifles to shoot from a distance.

Those who were closer were shot with South Japanese-style muskets, which only killed the rebels. Corpses were scattered all over the ground, which was miserable.

After several fierce attacks, they were easily repelled by the Yu family's army. Kong Youde had to send his elite confidants to supervise the battle. This forced many rebels to have no choice but to fight forward.

After fierce fighting until the afternoon, the rebels finally reached the promised border in Fujian and began to fill trenches, clearing away the Juma Deer Village and bamboo sticks outside the camp, trying to break into the camp.

But the result was that they finally broke through the defense lines one after another. When they arrived at the camp fence, they first attacked them with three blows in the face, killing and wounding them all over the place. Then, they stabbed hard with their long gun hands across the camp fence. The rebel soldiers who easily squeezed into the camp fence were like shuttles, stabbing a large group of them over.

However, under Kong Youde's death order, these rebels still rolled in like a tide, desperately squeezing outside the camp fence, and were stunned to drown out the bullets that were fired continuously in the camp. But just when they finally knocked down several camp fences and saw Keneng about to rush into the Fujian camp, black iron bullets were suddenly thrown from the camp.

These iron bullets are about the size of a small melon and weigh about a kilogram each. The shells are still bumpy, as if they were pre-engraved with many criss-crossing lines when they were cast.

These iron melons instantly fell into the dense crowd of rebels, and then a series of violent explosions were made in the crowd of rebels, which immediately caused the rebels' broken limbs and broken arms to fly everywhere, and their internal organs and intestines were scattered everywhere. Flying away, a large number of rebels fell into a pool of blood.

In fact, the large grenade filled with black powder used by the Yu family is not very powerful, and the killing diameter is very small. It is only two or three meters away, or at most four or five meters, and the fragments produced by the explosion are not very many, even if it is Prefabricated fragments are pre-engraved, and the explosion can only produce a dozen pieces of shrapnel.

In fact, this kind of iron melon grenade is far less powerful than the grenade loaded with strong explosives in later generations. It is also bulky and has poor arm strength, so it can't be thrown far. It is basically unable to be used in offensive operations, but it is still more suitable for defensive operations. Today, Kong Youde was so angry that he forced a large number of rebels to attack the Fujian camp. The large number of rebels, relying on their lives, drowned out the intensive barrage fire from the Yu family army and rushed outside the camp fence.

This just brings out the maximum effect of these iron melons. Even if iron melons do not explode and are thrown out, they can easily smash the head of a rebel. It can be seen that the number of rebels is large and their personnel are dense. .

Once this kind of iron melon explodes, it will immediately produce an extremely lethal effect. When it explodes, there will be a shock wave to kill the enemy. In addition, the fragments will fly horizontally. One iron melon can often blow up several rebels when it explodes. Army, clear an open space.

This time, the rebels were unlucky. They were blown away with blood and flesh. In an instant, a large number of people were killed and injured. At several breaches, the rebels tried to swarm in, but the gaps were immediately blocked by Fujian officers and soldiers, with all their rifles loaded. The bayonet and long gunmen also stepped forward to kill with all their strength, while the swordsmen pushed forward like a wall, and relied on their bloody efforts to seal the gaps again.

After a day of fierce fighting, the rebels suffered more than two to three thousand casualties. Even though Kong Youde was so angry that he vomited blood, he had no choice but to order the withdrawal of troops.

The Yu Jiajun also paid some casualties in this battle. About two hundred soldiers were killed and wounded in the battle. It was also the heaviest price paid in these days. Even Yu Xiaotian felt a little pressure in the end. A little nervousness arose.
