The 12th Battalion Xiaoqimuen was an artillery trained by Tan Huo. They were subordinate to each battalion, but in fact they were directly commanded by Wang Tong, and Tan Huo also had the title of artillery commander.

There are eleven forts, and the soldiers stationed in the garrison are often rotated, but artillery soldiers are always available. After daily training, they are actually very leisurely, but Mu En is a little dissatisfied. He feels that he and his companions are dancing and guns every day, sweating in the training ground, and fighting with the enemy with real swords and guns is the hero.

Therefore, since the beginning of the spring of the seventh year of Wanli, I have been pestering my boss to go to the camp of the war army and infantry year. It is naturally the best to be able to go to the cavalry, but there are few artillerymen, so I was scolded by my boss several times and did not agree at all.

Mu En's ancestors were from Yunnan. It is said that he joined the army when the Duke of Qian State Mu Ying entered Yunnan. Later, for some reason, he came to Tianjin to become a military force.

It has been passed down from generation to generation to Muen'en's generation. There are four brothers and sisters in the family. Muen is the youngest. Seeing that Tiandi's eldest brother and second brother are about to make a living, the family that the sister married is also poor, and she is unwilling to stay at home as a burden. She caught up with Wang Tong to recruit soldiers and simply joined the army.

He is strong and honest, and his superiors attach great importance to it, so he promoted it to become a small flag.

When the sharp copper whistle sounded, Mu En, who was sleeping in clothes, suddenly jumped off the bed, and the artillery soldiers on the bunk in the house were all startled. "Mu, there seems to be a boat on the river, and it is coming!!" Mu En patted his face with his hand and said loudly: "Have the brothers guarding the fort told me?" "They have already formed a team!" "Did the cannons be filled with medicine?

"Wood, we always have medicine in the cannon!

"If you put it in another way, you'll be quicker. If you delay the matter, Lord Wang will be going to kill people by marching!!"

The house was in a hurry and panic. The artillery soldiers ran out one after another. There were brick walls in front of the fortress. The artillery soldiers on duty whispered: "Mu, come and take a look. There are dozens of bows. It seems that they will go ashore next to our fortress-!"

There are mostly yards and warehouses on the banks of the Haihe River. These places have wind light marks to unload cargoes for large trucks and ships coming at night. With these lights, I vaguely saw the moving ships on the Haihe River, and the largest ones are slowly approaching.

Mu En glanced a few times, rubbed his eyes and looked at it, and spoke loudly:

"Get the wooden bar and turn the cannon and bang it!"

"Wood, could it be a merchant ship..."

"You are confused and you haven't heard this whistle. Besides, when you go straight to the merchant ship, why don't you even have a person to take the boat to greet you!!"

The two artillerymen held a wooden bar and inserted it under the cannon seat, shouting and began to rotate. The cannons on the cannon were in a semi-fixed style, and the cannon was seated on the wooden box. The wooden box had small wooden wheels, and the six-pound cannon could turn eight people, but it took some effort to use the wooden power.

Seeing that the cannon had already adjusted its direction, Mu En picked up the iron rod that had been burned red in the brazier and sneered, "Where is not good to go, come to Tianjin Wei for death!!

The iron chisel came to the gunpowder at the fire door, and the gunpowder was ignited "hissy" and the artillerymen around him all slap their ears. A loud "boom" sounded over the sound of the copper whistle and the noise gradually rising in the commercial area.

Because the ship was already crowded with people, everyone was waiting to jump down and go ashore when they approached the shore. According to their ideas, when the night was so late, the officers and soldiers were not prepared at all. By the time they woke up, everyone had already gone ashore to start killing, and the fort became a decoration.

The shells flew over, and Muen and his team were unable to adjust the guns in a hurry. The shells did not hit the ship, and they were a little higher, but this was a coincidence. The flying metal projectiles flew past the ship's side, and the pirates standing on the deck could not dodge and immediately flew with flesh and blood.

I don't know how many artificial half of the body was directly beaten to pieces. The shells flew across the ship and fell into the river. The uninjured pirates around were also splattered by the flesh and blood of their companions.

The copper whistle sounded, and the banks of the Haihe River were quiet. The pirates felt complacent, and they felt that they could get ashore by surprise. Unexpectedly, suddenly a thunderous cannon sounded.

The psychological gap is too huge. The people who were paddling hard were stunned. After a while, someone shouted and everyone jumped into the river.

Muen fired the first gun, and six of the eleven turrets were able to turn the guns to the angle of shooting the pirates, and six guns fired one after another.

Thunder roared on the canal, and the dark lights were lit. Just leaning on a blurry outline to shoot, the accuracy was not high. But if you hit it, you would definitely be killed or injured. Although only a few ships were hit, no pirates dared to stay on the boat and die. They jumped down the river like dumplings and swam desperately towards the shore.

The south bank of Haihe River is still farmland, so it is safe to run over. The south bank is within the range of artillery shooting. In order to avoid accidental injuries, there are no soldiers stationed.

But at this time, the pirates were all unfamiliar with the land. Many people swam towards the north bank. The soldiers stationed around the fort had already lined up, arranged in two rows of horizontal lines, and leaned towards the shore. "The enemy is the one who goes up the shore from the river, let go and kill the enemy!!" The battalion officials and hundreds of households issued a loud order, and the soldiers laid the spears in their hands. "Brothers give in first, the cannons cannot hit people, and they must let these thieves eat iron sand!"

At this time, Mu En and several artillery soldiers trot out. The two of them were carrying a tiger squat cannon. The cannon was only a few dozen filled with iron sand fragments, which was only a range of forty steps. The battle formation was quite useless.

When the battalion officer saw Mu En leading the staff in front of him, he was so angry that he wanted to curse, but he could only stop the soldiers. Mu En and the artillerymen around him set a flat cannon on the ground, and found something behind the cannon to fix it and ignite the attack.

Two muffled sounds, and the smoke of gunpowder filled the air. The infantry all held their weapons tightly, fearing that the enemy would take action at this time. The smoke of gunpowder dissipated. The dense heads of the river were already sparse. Some people cried loudly in the river, while others turned around and swam back desperately.

The iron sand lead shots from two tiger squat cannons form a semicircle with a radius of twenty steps. In this semicircle barrage, the ones close to it are made into sieves, and the artificial half of the body behind it is broken. People farther away are affected by the flying metal fragments and particles, and they lose their combat power after hitting.

At night, many things cannot be seen clearly. If you pay a little attention, you can still see the river water turning into a darker color...

Some people have already climbed the shore in several other places, but they have no combat power to swim in the roar of cannons, let alone the cold spear array waiting for them on the shore.

The soldiers of the Huwei Army were also very nervous, but they didn't expect that the battle was so simple. They just needed to stab the spear in their hands and forcefully. The enemy in front of them could only howl and raise the weapon and then be stabbed to death.

There were also brave pirates. The sword of Zewu cut off several spears and was about to break forward, but there were too many spears. After taking a step forward, countless holes were stabbed through the whole body. The pirates could no longer rush in from the river.

The soldiers on the beach burned the boats with ships filled with firewood and walked carefully, and wanted to row and look for large ships. They did not dare to alarm the left-behind soldiers, which made them very slow.

By the time the fire was lit, the pirates had already gone a long way, and no one thought of looking back. There was such a prosperous area so close to the sea, and there were only so many officers and soldiers stationed, not even a city wall and trenches. Such fat was equal to God's send. Come there and have fun.

I vaguely heard the copper whistle sounding in front of me, and the pirates only slowed down a little. The leaders raised their weapons and shouted, "Brothers, rush over, gold and silver mountains, beautiful women are waiting for us there, run away!!" Everyone shouted at each other, thinking about the carnival of washing villages, but instead accelerated their pace...

When the pirates rushed to the shop area, it was very quiet. Because it was night, it was natural for every shop to close. It was strange that every household had a lantern hanging above the street. Although it was raised high with wooden poles, there were too many lanterns, and the whole tie was quite bright.

The sound of the copper whistle has stopped. If it were normal, the people who received the warning were already in chaos at this time, so they should not be so quiet. "The people must have been hiding at home, or they even ran away. They can't run far now and can't bring much money and property. Let's catch up!!"

Someone among the pirates loudly, and everyone was used to rampant on the sea. Whether it was Ming, Japanese or Goryeo, they all had this reaction. Could it be that Tianjin Wei is different? "According to our prior arrangement, we will go to our respective places to wash, so don't be messed up!"

The big man called "Tiger Master" shouted, and the pirates who had long been unable to control themselves howled and rushed into the street with their weapons.

On the watch building, you can clearly see the pirates rushing into the streets, and the sentries kept shouting downwards and informing the situation.

On the square and the streets to the west, soldiers from the Jinyiwei and Huwei Army had gathered here. Wang Tong and other soldiers chopped their daggers and hung them on their horses, and according to the news from Wanglou, they commanded the battalions of soldiers into the street.

The pirates all felt that good things were inside, but after running for a while, many people couldn't help it and began to smash the door of the shop desperately, supporting each other to climb over the wall.

It was at this moment that neat footsteps sounded, and on the other side of the street, officers and soldiers arranged in neat formations approached with spears.

The soldiers' queues were neat, with almost no gaps on both sides, and they looked like they were squeezed like a wall...

The big man called "Tiger Master" had the most people, and they were walking on the most spacious streets in the commercial area. The people this pirate met were Wang Tong and the cavalry led by Wang Tong. Looking at the panicked pirates in front of him, Wang Tong hit the horse's belly with his heels, waved his sword in his hand, and shouted: "Everyone, kill the thief with me!!!"
