The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

The latest station name: Mubi Pavilion latest website:

Fatagusta Fortress, Cyprus.

However, it can be seen that there are seven and eight different flags, and a huge battleship formation with crosses in each flag is hovering in the open sea. The battleships close to the fortress are spraying smoke continuously, making loud noises, and banging fiercely. fortress!

This is the White Fleet!

The fortress is flying the banner of the Southeastern Kingdom---even if the South China Empire is established, it will not change so quickly.

In fact, even one and a half years after the establishment of the South China Empire, many troops still wore the old-style military uniforms of the Southeastern countries, and many of the signs were still old. This is a manifestation of too much stride.

Beside the battlements of the fortress, guard Cao Xun used a binoculars to observe the enemy's situation, cursing uncleanly.

Who told him to be the highest commander in the fortress area? He doesn't command anyone to command!

But the enemy is strong and we are weak, we are beaten, and Cao Xun is unhappy.

Cao Xun, a former Ming officer, is also a powerful shooting officer and hereditary commander. He ranks with Yang Zhan, Zeng Ying, Li Zhanchun, Yu Dahai, Wang Xiang and others. He is familiar with Yang Zhan and is a first-class military officer and an elite of the army!

He had fought vigorously with Li Chuang and the Eight Great Kings of the Bandit Army. When he was guarding Yazhou, he repeatedly defeated the Eight Great Kings in Xiaoguan Mountain. He was one of the Chinese heroes.

The defense zone of the First Army was originally Egypt. Due to the southeast siege of Istanbul, the main force of the West Expedition moved forward. The strengthened defense zone of the First Army was also expanded accordingly. Cao Xun drew 10,000 troops, plus the Imperial Army 10,000. Settled in Cyprus, and joined the original five thousand defenders, he became the highest commander, and now he is poisoned by the white skin, and he is bombarded!

Baipi's firepower was so fierce that the fortress flew across the fortress and shrapnel swept across, making the defenders frightened, wearing full armor to protect them and avoiding eating.

Relatively speaking, the artillery fire on the fortress is weak!

The opposing battleship has a full 42-pound cannon. The maximum caliber of the existing cannon is only 32 pounds. The battleship’s artillery is three-dimensional and has three or four layers. The fortress cannon has only one firepower, and the firepower per unit area is not strong enough.

Most artillery in that era could not rotate, and the muzzle point could not be easily changed. It was not possible to take the surrounding artillery into a "centripetal offensive" to strike the same target together.

As for the fortress layering, each layer is equipped with artillery to increase firepower, a good idea!

However, implementation is not easy, a large amount of cement and steel materials are needed, more artillery is deployed, and the fortress is too late to be transformed.

The lack of concrete and steel bars, and the rapid expansion of the South China Empire, is another sign of too much strife.

The consequence is fucking!

Cao Xun was observing the enemy's situation through a telescope. He saw a battleship with a red-bottomed octagonal and white cross flag that was extremely brave. With the firepower of the fortress cannon, it rushed to a distance of 100 meters offshore, firing a volley of firepower.

This is a British battleship with 70 guns and a 32-pound cannon on board. The firepower is very powerful.

The cannonball hit exactly where Cao Xun was!

The officers and soldiers around him shrank their heads subconsciously, and many people leaned their backs under the battlements, contracted as hard as they could, and covered their bodies with shields.

In this way, there are battlements on the back and shields in front, safe!

Cao Xun is a general, and a general has the prestige of a general, he disdains hiding.

And he is confident that he has thick battlements in front of him to protect against the frontal attacks of artillery shells. He has a steel helmet on his head, a neck guard, and armor---all made of special alloy steel, which is light and strong. Yan Changwu treats senior officers. Very concerned, willing to invest money in this area.

Feeling safe, he doesn't even need soldiers to flock around him as a physical shield.

Due to the artillery fire of the navy, the Southeast Army has soldiers around him to act as a meat shield.

He stood grinningly, trying to be a hero there, so the cup happened.

A few shells came, not directly hitting him, there should be no danger, unexpectedly he screamed, that voice was terrible, and the general's face was lost!

It is said that the light injury can not go below the line of fire, Guan Gong scrapes the bones to take the poison without frowning, Cao Xun's screams, the volume has exceeded the sound of the enemy's artillery!

The guards were shocked and rushed forward, only to see him falling to the ground and rolling violently, unable to control him, to check him!

Anxiously the soldiers turned round and round, an experienced veteran non-commissioned officer looked at his performance and affirmed: "The general was beaten to the egg!"

Everyone took a closer look. Isn't this just how a certain man molested a girl after being slapped with his feet?

Cao Xun, whose pain on the ground was slightly less painful, was gasping, seeing everyone onlookers, watching his weird appearance, really resentful!

...

Cao Xun, who has stabilized, slept on the camp bed, his head down and dejected. How could General Cao not be afraid of strong enemies before, and he was full of spirits!

Yes, it was shot, hit the egg, this is the lifeblood!

Brigadier General Wang Sen, the commander of the fortress, came to see him and asked Cao Xun’s chief doctor, how is General Cao?

Doctor Zhu Ye is a middle-aged man, the chief doctor of the Fortress Battlefield Hospital. His surname is Zhao. Dr. Zhao said: "General Cao’s egg was shot. I have checked it. There may be nothing wrong, but it’s hard to say the consequences..."

He gave Wang Sen a doctor's advice, and it said something like bruises, edema, and Wang Sen wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare to laugh.

Cao Xun's senses were not damaged. Seeing Wang Sen's expression, he gave him a fierce look!

After Dr. Zhao left, Wang Sen sat down on the side of the marching bed and pared Cao Xun boredly.

The treatment of the Southeast Army is quite good, except for the guaranteed supply of food ~www.wuxiaspot.com~the wounded have better treatment, such as fresh fruit.

Don't underestimate an apple. In that era, there was no cold chain supply, no transportation capacity, fresh food cannot be separated from the place of production, and the army can eat well, but also want to eat well and eat fresh fruit?!

Wang Sen, a brigadier general, was cutting apples, which was a bit servile.

But Wang Sen knew that he was just a little general, and Cao Xun was Jane’s figure in the heart of the emperor. He had a bright future. With such a chance to please others, he wouldn’t even think about it---yes, after the establishment of the South China Empire, Cao Xun was made a third-class earl, and hereditary is irreplaceable!

Cao Xun asked Wang Sen, how is the fortress?

"It's okay, the white-skinned artillery can't hit our fortress, no artillery can directly hit the fortress!" Wang Sen said lightly.

"Then I was injured, what's the matter?" Cao Xun's head has been in confusion after being shot, and it finally doesn't hurt so much. Looking back, I have a clue, but I still want to hear Wang Sen's investigation.

So Wang Sen said the possibility of the matter: "An enemy shell fell three meters to the right of your side at a 40-degree angle to you, and then burst, fragments flying in all directions, one of them Fragment, that hit you, that location!"

That's it!

Cao Xun’s upper body can be protected, but no armor is placed in the crotch. This kind of armor is called a "down block", which specifically protects the egg.

I couldn't help but think of a sentence circulating in the Southeast: "Don't pretend to be B, pretend to be struck by lightning!"

Cao Xun asked, "Where did the octagonal battleship come from?"

He remembered it clearly, it was the cannon fired by that octagonal battleship.

"That's the Knights of the Hospital of Malta!" Wang Sen said confidently.

Cao Xun gritted his teeth and said: "I am a woman of the 18th generation of the ancestors of the Knights, and I will never die with the Knights of the Hospital of Malta!"
