Chapter 399 A quarter of an hour the city was broken, and Putmans, led by his assistants and attendants, came to the city wall, and he saw outside the city, about five hundred paces.The artillery units of the whole army have begun to build artillery positions, and the infantry units are in full array, which are neat and neat, and they are lined up in horizontal rows, which is very extraordinary.Jiang Baisheng, as the commander of the attack on Tainan, directly sent a tongue man Lin Ashui to deliver a message.Lin Ashui took the iron horn and shouted towards Chichicheng: "Dutch, surrender?"
”Putmans listened to the words of the tongue man, and was wondering, so he persuaded to surrender?"
Three, two, one!"
Lin Ashui turned around cleanly and walked in the direction of the large array of the whole family army.Putmans was confused.Colonial rule is unpopular wherever it is, and of course, there are exceptions to everything, such as servile India, which is different.The Dutch and the Spanish people wantonly plundered mineral resources, timber, and land in Taiwan, and even spared a little cane sugar produced in Taiwan, and also massacred and expelled the aborigines in large numbers for this purpose.Lin Ashui is an immigrant from the mainland, more than 20 years ago he came to Taiwan with Yan Siqi, the king of Taiwan, with his hard-working hands, he got up early and worked hard at night, and finally cultivated more than 100 acres of fields, relying on planting sugarcane and rice, and lived a very good life.It wasn't until ten years after the Dutch occupied Taiwan that they robbed his family's sugar cane plantation, killed his son, and treated him as a slave.Lin Ashui returned to Jiang Baisheng, bowed down and said, "General, the Dutch would rather die than surrender!"
”Jiang Baisheng mainly didn't understand Dutch, and even if he did, it was useless, and the distance between the two sides was four or five hundred steps, and he couldn't hear what the Dutch were saying at all.Jiang Baisheng nodded: "Don't surrender, don't surrender!"
”Jiang Baisheng looked at the walkie-talkie in his hand, the charging of the battery had been completed, he took the walkie-talkie, and pressed the call keypad: "The artillery regiment fires its artillery, and the infantry regiment is ready to attack and attract the Dutch!"
”At this point, the whole family army began the final preparations before the attack.Open the shell box, stuff the shell into the barrel, and adjust the firing range."
Boom, boom, boom......"
A cannon began to spray fire, and the shells that rushed out of the barrel were heading towards the Red Embedded City.As the Governor of Taiwan, Putmans was not ignorant of military affairs, he was actually a good Dutch officer, and he was a lieutenant colonel in the Dutch Army before becoming Governor of Taiwan.This made him very strange as the cannon fired, the sound of the discharge was unlike any artillery, the projectile flew in a high parabola, accompanied by a creepy screech, somewhat similar to a mortar.But with the mortar cannon is a big lead ball, it is not the same as a few that can kill a few, this thing hits a flowering bomb, and the explosion is very powerful, boom, a hedgehog within a radius of ten meters, within twenty meters is either dead or wounded, shrapnel flies out hundreds of meters, and there is lethality, there are several unlucky eggs who were hit in the eye by shrapnel and steel balls flying hundreds of meters away, rolling on the ground and wailing.This scene frightened Putmans.Twelve strange cannons, the rate of fire is very fast, there is no way, this is the world's first rapid-fire gun, and it was built by the craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty, except that the barrel is a special alloy seamless steel pipe customized in later generations, and even the hydraulic device of the reset is prevented.Although there were only twelve cannons, they had the same terrifying rate of fire as dozens or hundreds, and the shells were like rain, and the whole city was not a safe place, and there were shells falling everywhere.Putmans only thought it was incredible, how could Da Ming have such an advanced cannon and a large number of flowering shells?
At this time, General Erwin, with a tired face, climbed the city wall.Putmans hurriedly asked, "Your Excellency Commander Elwin, what did you encounter in the naval battle?"
”Erwin shook his head: "No, it's faster than this fast cannon, but in an instant, the artillery is flying all over the sky, and the cannonballs reflect the sky and the earth red, as if it is as terrifying as a volcanic eruption." ”Putmans felt that his IQ had been insulted, how could there be an artillery in the world with such a fast rate of fire?
Although the artillery of the whole family army had a fast rate of fire, it was not so terrifying.At this moment, a young staff officer of the whole family army asked: "General Jiang, we can obviously break the city at any time......
Jiang Baisheng shook his head and said: "We are here to test the artillery this time!"
”At this time, dozens of technicians were pointing behind the artillery position, holding binoculars, observing the impact point of the shells, and recording various data on the firing shells of each artillery.In fact, without artillery, the whole family army could easily break through the Red Embedded City, but in order to test the artillery, it was a different matter.At this time, with the bombardment of artillery, the entire Red Embedded City seemed to be a flat boat in a raging storm, and it could capsize at any time.More than 200 shells blew up the city.In the face of cannonballs, all beings are equal.Whether it was the officials of the Dutch colonies or their families, as long as they were affected by a shell, they would blow their skin to pieces, and a shell would hit a Dutch soldier like a stone.It's just a matter of the fuse, the shell did not explode, but was delayed for nearly two seconds, and with a loud bang, the Dutch soldier's head flew to more than thirty meters, and his arm flew in the opposite direction, and within a radius of more than one hundred meters, it rained flesh and blood, and the soldier's organs or flesh were everywhere.Observing the scene, he said: "Delayed fuses are not good, the disadvantages are too great, and I suggest that we should add touch fuses to the explosive part of the shell." ”As the so-called one pulse passes, the pulse is connected.When the mines were made into contact fuses, suicide ships also adopted contact fuzes, and Shenhuo-3 rockets and artillery shells will inevitably adopt this technology, thus eliminating the outdated ignition fuzes.With this round of shelling, the Dutch suffered heavy casualties.Putmans looked at the army commander Van der Sar beside him and said, "Prepare to fight to the death, the Ming people will not give us any way to live!"
”Compared with the other armies of the Ming Dynasty, the biggest advantage of the Dutch was their ability to withstand casualties, or related to their habit of using artillery and guns, and they had a wealth of experience in defending against artillery.Although the power of the shell is good, but this kind of bullet has little impact on the fortress built with masonry, and there are no pedestrians in the streets and alleys now, of course, the destructive power of the shell still exists, but the lethal effect has been greatly reduced.Finally, the shelling that made the Dutch feel out-of-body stopped.Van der Sar took the whistle and blew fiercely: "Quick, quick, prepare to fight back, the Seris are coming!"
”Within their line of sight, the infantry of the whole family army began to line up in a neat line, swords and guns in unison, ready for the final attack.However, the problem is that these whole family soldiers actually squatted down in the sound of orders, and the soldiers in front of them held shields."
What the hell are they doing!"
More than 1,600 kilograms of granular gunpowder was detonated in the "Boom ......," blasting a large gap about 30 steps long in the city wall near the city gate.The Dutch on the city wall were immediately buried in the rubble.Even without the bombed-out walls, the Dutch were killed and wounded.Faced with the Dutch, who were blown up, the soldiers of the whole family army began to attack with knives and guns.In order to cover the artillery attack, it was the mortars who spoke first, and the regiment was directly under the mortar division, twelve mortars, and for the three infantry regiments of the whole family army attacking, this was thirty-six mortars.The Dutch reacted quickly, and under Van der Sar's organization, more than a hundred Dutch soldiers, armed with muskets, formed a phalanx and began to aim at the entire family soldiers.However, mortar shells were whizzing down at the same time, almost three times the rate of fire of the new 105 smoothbore gun, and these mortar shells fell into this huge gap."
Boom Boom Boom ......"
Whether it was the Dutch who were blocking the gap or the Dutch who were preparing to counterattack on the city wall, they all ended up the same, under the dense rain of mortars, they were blown to pieces.Under the desperate gaze of the Dutch's wounded soldiers, the soldiers of the whole family army rushed towards the Red Embedded City with vigorous steps.They move quickly, and they are fierce and resolute.The soldiers of the whole family army who rushed to the front had grenades in their waists and chests, and they were grenades with wooden handles, which were the equipment of later generations, although the power was weaker than that of mortar shells, but they were more flexible.At this time, the whole family army really had a bit of the demeanor of the brigade knife during the Anti-Japanese War, and while using a grenade to open the way, the big knife flew up and down.But the key point is that their opponent is not a light and heavy machine gun, nor a powerful artillery, let alone a Japanese devil with a godlike marksmanship, but a Dutch devil.They killed people on sight, and when they met resistance, they threw a grenade at them and then rushed up to hand-to-hand combat, and when they encountered a wounded Dutch soldier, they did not hesitate to cut off their heads and hang them around their waists, and then pounced on the next one.The morale of the Dutch had already been almost destroyed by the round of shelling, and when they encountered these fierce gods, they were so frightened that they peed their pants, and after resisting indiscriminately, they fled through the north gate, and the soles of their feet flew up and down, and fled to the city without their lives.In less than a quarter of an hour of attack, the defense of the walls of the Red Embedded City was completely lost.The Dutch's will to fight is indeed good, as the so-called evil they have done, they know that even if they want to surrender, I am afraid that it will not end well.Therefore, in a time of desperation, the Dutch also broke out with a decisive will to fight back.In the era of cold weapons, it is true that there is a saying that one person is desperate and ten people are invincible, but in the era of hot weapons, this statement is outdated.In the vicinity of the Doge's Palace, a force of more than 200 Dutch men launched an attack on the whole army."
Bang bang bang ......" and "bang bang bang ......" a row of guns fired over, and the smoke of gunfire filled the air, and then a row of grenade shells was thrown over, and when the smoke cleared, the Dutch fell in a pool of blood, a place of flesh and blood, a place of corpses.PS: There are still 15 hours and fifteen minutes, there are still fifteen votes left, whether there is a 50,000 operating fund next month, whether there are 50 fan titles, it depends on everyone, Lao Cheng did his best.
