Anti-Qing: Starting from the Reincarnation of the Ming Dynasty
Chapter 316 Inchon Landing
Listening to everyone's discussion, Li Shiyao slowly exhaled a breath and spoke.
"Hey, why do we, the country of the Qing Dynasty, end up like this..."
"I just hope the emperor can persist longer and give me more time to prepare."
"Otherwise, it's really hard to say what will happen!"
Li Shiyao is now somewhat pessimistic about the future of the Qing Dynasty.
Because Qianlong fell ill at the wrong time.
If Qianlong did not fall, even if the Qing Dynasty traded space for time, it would not be a problem to persist for three to five years.
The country will not be destroyed so quickly!
After all, Qianlong ascended the throne and ruled the world for decades, so he still had prestige.
Most people in the world recognize him as the emperor.
However, if Qianlong died suddenly and the new emperor who succeeded him did not have enough prestige, then the Qing Dynasty might really be doomed.
Once the Qing Dynasty is leaderless, it will be too easy for the Ming thieves to defeat them one by one.
Qianlong fell ill at this time. In Li Shiyao's opinion, it was really God's failure to bless the Qing Dynasty...
……
North Korea, Incheon!
Pu Yingyou leaned on the wall of the city wall boredly, yawning continuously.
The heavy snow in the sky is still floating, and there is a vast expanse of white inside and outside the city wall.
It can be said to be wrapped in silver!
In the cold wind, Pu Yingyou shrank his neck, tightly wrapped his ragged cotton robe that leaked air, and couldn't help but look enviously in the direction of the city gate tower.
In the city gate tower, the burning stove makes the room as warm as spring.
A group of soldiers from the Green Camp of the Qing Army were drinking wine and eating meat from a large bowl with their chests exposed, and they were holding women in their arms.
Life can be described as happy!
But outside the city gate tower, they, the Korean soldiers, usually had enough to eat, but now they had to patrol and stand guard in the cold weather.
But even so, Park Young-woo and others have no dissatisfaction or resentment about this. The emotion they have in their hearts is just envy.
The reason for this is very simple.
Because North Koreans are strong-willed at heart, in their view, the strong should possess more resources, including women, food, gold and silver, money and other resources.
The Qing soldiers who invaded North Korea, captured the capital of North Korea in less than a year, and captured the King of North Korea were undoubtedly the strong men in their minds.
Therefore, Park Young-woo and other Koreans can only envy the treatment of Qing soldiers and soldiers, and hope that one day they can also receive such treatment.
Instead of feeling resentful towards the Qing soldiers who occupied their resources!
Park Yingyou withdrew his envious gaze and continued to stand guard.
He looked towards the sea and admired the sea view.
At this moment, with a heart-wrenching crunching sound, the gate of the city gate tower behind him was opened.
A Qing soldier with a round belly walked out of the city gate tower with the support of a Korean soldier. He looked around and walked towards Pu Yingyou.
Park Yingyou heard the footsteps behind him and subconsciously turned his head to look.
I saw a Qing soldier who smelled of alcohol and powder being helped and walked towards him. This Qing soldier had obviously drunk too much and was swaying as he walked.
But even so, in Park Young-woo's eyes, he still felt that he was mighty, capable of walking like a tiger, and was enviable and respected.
Even the ugly money rat tail of this Qing soldier seemed quite interesting to Park Yingyou.
The Qing soldier walked to the wall, broke away from the support of the Korean soldier beside him, loosened his belt, exposed the big bird, and started to release water.
Along with the sound of running water, a yellow trace was left on the white snow under the city wall.
After draining the water, the Qing sergeant shuddered and his body trembled obviously, then he fastened his belt and prepared to walk back.
But just as he turned around, he saw Park Yingyou beside him.
With his right hand covered in water stains of unknown origin, he patted Park Young Woo's shoulder and gave instructions casually.
"The governor has told me that there may be an unidentified thief coming recently."
"Stand guard well and don't relax."
Seeing this, the North Korean soldier who was supporting him also spoke in a slutty manner.
"Did you hear that? Master Tianbing told you to work hard. Don't let up."
"When you achieve military success later, you won't have to stand guard and patrol like I did. Instead, you will drink and eat meat in the city gate tower with the Heavenly Soldiers."
Although he was just a servant in the city gate tower helping the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty to serve food and wine and wait on others to eat and drink.
But even so, in front of ordinary North Korean soldiers like Park Young-woo, he still felt that he was superior.
Seeing this, Park Yingyou nodded desperately as if he had been greatly inspired.
"Don't worry, adults, I understand!"
"I will definitely work hard to do my own thing well and serve the Qing Dynasty!"
"..."
But, while a few people were talking.
I saw a black spot suddenly appearing on the sea in the distance.
In the heavy white snow in the sky, the black spot looked quite conspicuous.
The cold wind howled, carrying countless snowflakes, blowing on people's faces as if they were being cut by a knife.
Suddenly, Pu Yingyou couldn't help but opened his mouth wide, pointed his finger in the direction of the sea, and said tremblingly.
"On the sea, those on the sea... those seem to be ships..."
As time went by, the black spots at the end of his sight continued to enlarge and became clearer and clearer.
The outline of its ship is also fully revealed!
Faintly visible are the flags fluttering one after another, the twelve-pointed sun and moon flag, and the clear flag with black characters on a red background, symbolizing the ownership of this fleet.
It is the Ming Dynasty's North Korean fleet!
Pu Yingyou was full of shock, and turned his head tremblingly to look at the Heavenly Soldier beside him, wanting to let the Heavenly Soldier make up his mind.
But as soon as he turned his head, he saw Master Tianbing's legs weakened and he fell to the ground.
With his mouth wide open and a look of fear on his face, he just muttered in his mouth.
"How...how could it be so fast!"
"How could the Ming thief come so quickly..."
This scene made Park Yingyou's eyes widen.
In his mind, the image of the Qing Dynasty's tall and powerful heavenly soldiers suddenly collapsed...
The Qing soldier now felt like his whole body was trembling, and fear was eating away at his sanity bit by bit.
The next moment, he shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Someone is coming! Someone is coming quickly!"
"The thieves are coming, please sound the alarm! The thieves are coming, please sound the alarm!"
"..."
Along with a hysterical roar, the alarm bell was sounded by the North Korean soldiers standing guard.
The bells rang throughout the entire city of Incheon...
……
Huang Changjun stood on the deck of his ship, looking towards the direction of Incheon City.
As time passed, his body was covered with snow, and his cloak and hat turned obviously white.
But even so, he remained motionless.
He just continued to look towards the direction of Incheon City.
After a long time, Huang Changjun withdrew his gaze, turned to Lin Shuangwen and said to the side.
"Commander Lin, it is estimated that our fleet will arrive in Incheon in half an hour at most, allowing your officers and men to prepare for landing operations."
"Excluding the childish Battle of Jeju Island, this Incheon landing is the first battle of our Ming Dynasty's intervention in North Korea. The first battle must be successful, and our Ming Dynasty's majesty must be displayed to boost the determination and determination of the Korean rebels to resist the Qing Dynasty. Morale.”
"No mistakes!"
When Lin Shuangwen heard this, he cupped his fists and said.
"Don't worry, sir, I will understand..."
After saying this, he turned around and went down to convey instructions to various departments of the Ming army.
As time passed, the fleet continued to approach Incheon City.
The gun windows on the side of the ship were opened one by one, and the black muzzles protruded from the gun windows, giving people a huge sense of oppression.
The Ming army's gunners began to clean the gun barrel and load the artillery.
And start calculating and shooting Zhuyuan in advance!
……
On the other side, Incheon City is also making preparations to attack the Ming army.
With the piercing alarm bell, the Qing soldiers quickly completed their assembly and began to prepare for battle.
The canvas covering the cannons to protect them from rain and snow was lifted, and the gunners quickly took up their positions.
The black muzzle was aimed in the direction of the sea.
Knowing that the Ming army would invade, He Shenti sent additional troops to Incheon and deployed artillery to reinforce the city defense of Incheon.
For now, Heshen's response is correct.
His advance preparation indeed caused certain obstacles to the Ming army.
Without his advance preparation, the Ming army might have been able to repeat the experience of the Battle of Jeju Island, and they might have captured the city of Incheon without bloodshed.
As time goes by, the Ming army fleet is getting closer and closer to Incheon City.
Chen Xiao, the Qing general in charge of the defense of Incheon City, stood at the top of Incheon City. Seeing that the Ming army fleet was getting closer and closer to Incheon, he immediately ordered.
"Give the order and the artillery will be loaded immediately."
The gunners of the Qing army received the order and began to command the Korean soldiers below, loading the artillery enthusiastically and preparing for battle.
Soon, the loaded Qing artillery began test firing.
boom! Boom boom boom!
Accompanied by a deafening roar, shells pierced the sky one after another, shooting towards the Ming fleet on the sea.
With a bang, the cannonball hit the water.
The next moment, a water column shot up from the sea, and soon the water mist filled the air.
It's a pity that the Qing army's school shooting failed to achieve any substantial results.
Most of the shells fell into the sea, leaving them alone.
Even the farthest cannonball was still two to three hundred meters away from the Ming army's fleet.
Chen Xiao didn't panic when he saw this, because he had also been taught by foreign artillery instructors from the British country.
Now I can be considered quite knowledgeable about artillery battles.
Faced with the current situation, he just spoke in an orderly manner.
"Increase the amount of powder and let's do another round of school shooting!"
The artillery currently used by the Qing army is no longer the old grandfather cannon, but the latest smoothbore cannon produced by the Jingshan Artillery Foundry.
The power and quality have made great progress!
In other words, the Qing army's artillery can now fire with a larger amount of gunpowder.
Instead of being the same as before, in order to ensure safety and ensure that the artillery does not explode, the charge of the artillery can only be reduced.
However, before the Qing army could launch the second round of school shooting, the Ming army had also opened fire.
Along with an earth-shaking roar, the Ming army's side gun windows spurted out clouds of fire and a large amount of gunpowder smoke.
Cannonballs flew out one after another, shooting in the direction of Incheon City...
The huge recoil generated when the artillery fired even caused ripples visible to the naked eye on the sea surface.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xiao couldn't help but frown, somewhat confused about Ming Jun's operation.
In his understanding, the power and range of naval guns are indeed considerable, but because their shooting platforms are affected by wind and waves on the sea, they will inevitably shake. Its accuracy is far inferior to that of coastal defense artillery.
Therefore, if the naval gun wants to achieve a more accurate shooting effect, it must further shorten the distance and reduce the error parameters.
In this case, if the Ming army opened fire at this distance, wouldn't that be a waste of artillery shells?
However, just when Chen Xiao was confused.
The shells fired by the Ming army's naval guns had already cut through the sky and fired over.
The shell landed on the beach outside Incheon.
A large amount of sediment was splashed near the impact point.
There was even a cannonball that came straight and hit the wall of Incheon City, making a big hole in the wall of Incheon City.
Around the pit, spider web-like cracks spread rapidly...
The rumbling shelling sounded one after another, and the shells were fired one after another across the sky.
The city wall of Incheon was so smashed that it trembled!
The Ming army's naval guns showed an accuracy that Chen Xiao could not understand.
However, just as Chen Xiao was stunned, another round of shelling sounded.
Shells were fired towards Incheon City one after another.
One of the cannonballs even hit the city gate tower.
If it weren't for the critical moment, the soldiers around Chen Xiao would have risked their lives to protect him, grabbed him and pinned him down.
Chen Xiao was afraid that his head would be smashed by falling bricks!
The next moment, a series of screams rang out from the top of Incheon City.
Too many soldiers of the Qing Dynasty were beaten to death by falling bricks and stones!
Chen Xiao got up from the ground and took off the hat on his head. His face was covered with dust and sand.
He shook his head hard and yelled angrily.
"Fight back, fight back!"
"Let the Ming thieves see the power of our Qing artillery!"
Soon, the Qing army also began to fight back.
boom! Boom boom! Boom boom boom!
The deafening sound of shelling was heard one after another, and shells flew horizontally towards the Ming fleet on the sea.
However, because the two sides are far apart, the Qing army has many artillery guns, even if they are powerfully charged, the range cannot reach the Ming army's fleet.
Boom! Boom!
The sound of heavy artillery continued.
The Ming army's fleet and the Qing army's coastal defense artillery were fiercely bombarded.
Cannonballs flew across the sky, seemingly destroying everything in their path.
As more and more cannonballs hit, water columns shot up from the sea.
Along with the howling cold wind, the fishy smell of the sea was unusually obvious.
Snowflakes carrying the smell of sea fluttered and hit people's faces, causing bursts of pain.
"Fire! Keep firing!"
"do not stop!"
"Move the muzzle five degrees to the left, raise the muzzle elevation three degrees, put..."
Amidst the shouts, the Ming army gunner in the cabin was shirtless and quickly operated the artillery.
Big beads of sweat appeared on everyone's forehead and body.
Although the environment outside the cabin is now filled with ice and snow, the temperature inside the cabin is not low due to the continuous firing of artillery.
The entire cabin, if you ignore the thick and acrid smoke, would be like a fairyland surrounded by clouds and fog.
Every time it fires, the barrel of the artillery will set back very obviously.
In this era when there is no control over the withdrawal of guns, all the Ming army can do is to equip the naval guns with withdrawal carts and pulleys to relieve the force.
Otherwise, the recoil generated by the heavy artillery fire may shake the hull of the warship apart.
These days, naval gun carriages are actually a thing with technical barriers.
On the battlefield, the rumbling shelling continued.
Cannonballs were flying.
The artillery arrays deployed by the Qing army on the beach were being destroyed one by one by the Ming army.
Even the city defense cannon at the top of Incheon City was knocked out and fell from the top of the city.
The heavy artillery hit the ground with a loud thud.
The artillery battle in Incheon was not so much an artillery battle as it was a unilateral firepower projection by the Ming army.
Compared with the Ming army's naval gun group, the Qing army's artillery can be said to be weak!
Of course, the reason for this is not that the Qing army's artillery power is really so stretched.
It was because the main artillery group of the Qing army was not in North Korea and was transferred to be responsible for the defense of Zhili.
If the main artillery group of the Qing army was here, even if the Ming army could win, it would not be so easy.
Just like during the Battle of Fuzhou, the Qing army's coastal defense artillery once suppressed the Ming army's naval guns.
The Ming army also relied on the coordination of infantry and artillery to defeat the Qing artillery group after the infantry landed.
……
The artillery battle continues!
The Ming army's naval guns continued to deliver firepower.
At the same time, the Ming army's landing troops were also ready and began to prepare for the landing operation.
The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty began to row small boats, and under the cover of naval gunfire, they advanced towards the beach.
The deafening shelling continued.
Overhead, artillery shells passed by at low altitude, and the sound of projectiles breaking through the air was quite obvious.
"Pull! Row quickly!"
"attack!"
"After arriving at the beach, immediately launch defense on the spot and prepare to receive the main force of our army to complete the landing..."
The grassroots officers of the Ming army shouted loudly and made preparations for the war.
At the same time, Qing army general Chen Xiao also shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Hold on, you must hold on!"
"Hit the cannon hard, aim at the Ming thief's boat, hit hard, and be sure to withstand the Ming thief's landing!"
"..."
Amidst the shouts, the few remaining artillery pieces of the Qing army were also aiming at the small boat on which the Ming army's landing troops were riding, and opened fire with all their strength.
The sound of bombardment continued one after another, and water columns exploded on the sea.
A cannonball came and hit a Ming army ship.
In an instant, the bodies of several Ming soldiers were torn apart by the kinetic energy contained in the shells. In an instant, the boat was penetrated and sawdust flew everywhere.
Sawdust shot out everywhere, piercing the bodies of Ming soldiers, and hysterical screams immediately rang out.
The blue sea was stained red with blood.
Many wounded soldiers of the Ming Army were floating in the cold water, flopping and struggling.
However, this did not stop the Ming army's offensive.
Amid the shouts of killing, the Ming army's landing troops were still moving forward, and their morale was still high.
Soon, the Ming army's landing ship finally advanced to the shore.
Several Ming soldiers got out of the boat and rushed towards the beach through the water.
The heavy snowflakes in the sky are still floating in the sky, and the sea water in winter is very cold. When you first enter the water, you feel a biting coldness.
However, as the charge horn sounded, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty burst into blood, holding muskets and bayonets, and rushed towards the direction of Incheon City.
The cold sea water was regarded as nothing by them!
……
At the same time, the Qing army was also firing with all its strength to block the attack.
There was a roar of muskets and artillery.
There were even Korean soldiers who were escorted out of their positions and rushed towards the Ming army who had completed the landing.
Trying to drive the Ming army back into the sea!
However, those Korean soldiers just came out of their positions and faced a round of Ming army artillery fire with a dense infantry array.
Then, they collapsed.
The Ming army that completed the landing quickly completed its troop concentration under the cover of its own naval guns, and then prepared to launch an attack on Incheon City.
Soon, the defense in Incheon began to become tense.
Chen Xiao really couldn't hold on anymore and chose to ask for help from Seoul, hoping that He Shen could send troops to reinforce the Incheon war as soon as possible.
……
Blood flowers were flying outside the window, and the cold wind was biting.
There was a brazier burning inside the window, which was as warm as spring.
The sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music and the soft voices of singing children complement each other.
He Shen held the beauty in his arms and leaned on the soft chair. Behind him, a maid stood respectfully, and a pair of small hands gently massaged his temples to soothe his nerves.
He Shen enjoyed the service of several beauties and beat the rhythm of the ditty with his hands in mid-air.
From time to time, he would open his mouth to accept the fruits and drinks fed by the beauty, and his life could be described as comfortable.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside.
He Shen's attendant stood outside the door and knocked on the door hurriedly.
Listening to the rapid knock on the door, He Shen's originally relaxed brows frowned slightly, and his face suddenly darkened.
He and Shen hated it when someone came to disturb him while he was resting.
"Sir, urgent report from Incheon!"
"Chen Xiao from Incheon sent someone to deliver a message. The Ming thief invaded Incheon. Incheon is in emergency..."
The expression on He Shen's face changed instantly, and he threw all the beauties in his arms out.
The beauty was knocked over and fell to the ground, letting out a cry of pain.
But Heshen and his Excellency did not care about the beauty at all, stepped over the beauty, kicked her aside, then came to the door and opened the door.
As the door was opened, He Shen instantly felt a gust of cold wind blowing towards his face.
A layer of fine goosebumps instantly appeared on his open chest.
Looking at the entourage standing outside the door, He Shen narrowed his eyes and asked.
"Tell me what's going on!"
Seeing the door open, he subconsciously took a few steps back, but still spoke.
"Lord Qi, this is what happened. At noon today, a fleet of pirates was spotted on the sea in the direction of Incheon..."
By the time he finished speaking, He Shen's face was completely dark and unreadable.
The veins on his forehead were beating constantly. His first reaction was to order more troops to be sent to Incheon, but before he spoke, He Shen suddenly thought of it.
The reinforcements from the imperial court have not arrived in the first place, and the troops on hand are insufficient now. If we divide our troops to reinforce Incheon, won't Seoul be empty?
If the Ming thieves were encircling Incheon for reinforcements, then if he sends troops to reinforce Incheon, wouldn't he be sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth?
……
