Li Guodong's three-masted Yangtze River gunboats have not arrived yet, and warships such as canal gunboats, centipede fasteners, Haicang ships, and Dafu ships have not arrived either. Most of the so-called warships entering the Yellow River are small sampans such as eagle ships and mesh shuttles. Each mesh shuttle carries four people, carrying three turtledove-footed guns and three guns. The eagle ship is a small boat with ten people paddlings, with a 100-jin Folang machine on the head and tail. At present, the largest warship among the navy is a warship transformed from a canal ship, with a length of seven feet and five feet and a width of one six feet. There is a six-pound iron cannon in front and back, and three three-pound iron cannons on both sides of the central side. It is the largest warship of Li Guodong's navy at present.

On the river surface, twenty cannons, one hundred eagle ships, and more than three hundred mesh shuttles were aimed at the shore, and guns and cannons were continuously sounded, and cannons were scattered on the river bank like heavy rain. Liu Fangliang's 20,000 rebels were immediately defeated.

"Kill!" Han Dashan pointed forward with a big axe in his hand, and three thousand cavalry rushed out.

First, bombard the enemy with cavalry, how could the rebel army withstand such a fighting style? More than 20,000 rebel army was defeated by artillery shells, and then they were rushed by heavy cavalry, and they all turned their heads and ran away.

Liu Zongmin also suffered a heavy blow to the 60,000 rebels attacking from the front. When the wooden boards of the rebels were about to be laid in front of the Ming army, countless flames suddenly spurted out from the three-layer three-dimensional fortifications, dense shots pierced into the crowd, spraying up blood mist, and countless refugees were beaten into hornets' nests and fell on the wooden board. The blood flowed to the wooden boards and penetrated into the mud. The black mud mixed with bright red blood and turned into dark red.

"Sky-storming cannon, prepare!" Li Guodong ordered.

Twelve sky-storming cannons were scattered, and the gunners stuffed the fixed charge pack into the medicine room, then cut the fuse of the flowering artillery shell, put the shell into the muzzle, and the fuse was exposed.

"Let me!" The officers of each small flag shook the flags.

The gunner standing in front lit the shell and ran away quickly. The gunner behind stabbed the torch towards the fire door.

To launch a flowering artillery shell, two gunners in front and back require tacit cooperation. After the person in front ignites the shell, the person behind must ignite the fire door in time. If it is too late, the shell will explode in the barrel before it can be fired, causing serious accidents.

Accompanied by the expansion of gunpowder gas, shells with ignited fuses rose into the air. The shells burning with the fuses looked like fire rain meteors, pulling a high-ballistic arc in the air and smashing them hard towards the wooden boards laid by the crusade army.

"Boom, boom, boom" Flowering firecrackers were on the wooden boards one after another. The wooden boards were broken and the pieces of wood flew across the air. The flowering bullets that exploded through the wooden boards rolled up the mud and water under the wooden boards, and the water columns soared into the sky rose from the mud. The air waves were wrapped in the fragments, and rows of trespassers fell down in the explosion.

In the three-dimensional fortifications inside and behind the fortress, countless projectiles were shot out again, and rows of rebels fell down screaming.

The gunners cleaned the barrel, stuffed the fixed loading bag again, stuffed the flowering shells into the muzzle, and then ignited the cannon again. These sky-rushing cannons are actually mortar cannons. Because of the short gun barrel, the loading speed is much faster than the low-ball field cannon, and the loading speed is almost comparable to the Flang machine cannon. In less than fifteen breaths after one round of fifteen breaths, another round of red-lighted cannons rose into the air, smashing into the crowd of rioters, and a series of explosions sounded.

The smoke from the second round of shells that landed on the ground had not yet dissipated. The third round of shells followed one after another. Above the entire mud, the flames were connected into a piece of fire, and the shell shell fragments were mixed with broken wooden boards and flew everywhere. Countless refugees fell down. The wooden boards in some places were blown away, and the injured crusade fell head-on into the mud, and the bamboo knife buried below was ripped into a hornet's nest.

The rebel army retreated, and countless wooden boards laid on the mud were blown upside down. There were countless stones in various strange postures. The injured soldiers struggled in the mud, and their bodies turned into a mud man. Milk mixed with blood poured into their eyes. The wounded soldiers let out heart-wrenching screams.

"The Guangou firearm is so powerful. The shells they fired can actually fall to the ground and explode! Uh, I have never seen such shells before." After Liu Zongmin returned, he told the power of Jinyang's arms.

Tian Jianxiu, who retreated from the river embankment, also said: "The Guan Gouzi actually built a dirt city on the river embankment. The brothers rushed over and were blocked. Bei Zhi ordered the attack on the city. Who knew that Guan Gou was guarding it without any leakage. Bei Zhi lost more than 3,000 people in vain and could not shake the dirt city at all."

Liu Fangliang, who finally retreated, also said: "The Guan Gouzi actually has the navy to help the battle! The brothers killed along the river embankment and were shelled by the river. The Guan Gou cavalry rushed over, but the brothers couldn't stop it."

The rebel army attacked Li Guodong's camp, which attracted the attention of the defenders in Kaifeng City.

Chen Yongfu stood on the Anyuan Gate Tower in the north of the city and looked at the Jinyang Army camp in the northwest. The rebels attacked the Jinyang Army twice just now, but both fell into Chen Yongfu's eyes.

"Jinyang's arms are so sharp that they have made the thief army corpses everywhere, it's so satisfying!" Chen Yongfu laughed when he saw the rebel army retreat for the second time.

"My father," Chen De stepped forward, "Jinyang Army is well-equipped and powerful cavalry!"

"Son, I guess that the thieves cannot defeat the Jinyang army, and they will probably come to trouble us soon! However, with the Jinyang army on the river bank, it can not only stop the thieves from flooding Kaifeng, but also a major concern behind them. If the thieves want to attack us, they also have to pay attention to their backs. Hahaha!" Chen Yongfu smiled while twisting his beard.

"Children understands that if the thief army attacks the city, he will definitely kill the enemy side by side with his father!" Chen De bowed.

Chen Yongfu looked at his son with a loving look in his eyes. His wife died early. He was pulled by him with one hand. He was both a father and a mother, and his feelings for his son were filled with double love. His son Chen De did not disappoint his expectations. He was very skilled and famous in Kaifeng Prefecture and shot a good arrow. Although his son was just a small garrison officer, he was in charge of the five hundred elite clerks under Chen Yongfu.

The rebel army attacked the Jinyang army twice, and both returned in a defeat, which made Li Zicheng's idea of ​​attacking Li Guodong begin to shake.

Li Yan took the opportunity to suggest: "King, Wu Weibo is stationed in the river embankment, probably because he is worried that our army will dig the embankment and flood Kaifeng. This person did not intend to be an enemy of our army."

Li Zicheng glared at his eyes: "Water floods Kaifeng? Humph! We opened the Feng, for the sake of the food, gold, silver and treasures and women in the city? If we let the water flood Kaifeng, what's the point even if we attack it? Kaifeng was originally the capital of the Song Dynasty. I heard that Kaifeng women are beautiful, so I can't bear to flood Kaifeng."

"King, let's just open the seal. Although the Jinyang Army's firearms are Li Li, as long as we leave a side army and build a camp to watch him, it will be difficult for them to come to rescue him," Li Yan said.

Liu Zongmin said dissatisfiedly: "King, then will we die in vain if we lose tens of thousands of brothers who are in the hands of the official dog Li Lao Er?"

Li Yan advised: "When the two armies fight, death and injury are inevitable, and it is not him who came to us, but we took the initiative to attack them."

"Okay!" Li Zicheng nodded, "Then prepare to attack and open the seal!"

In Kaifeng City, Li Xianfeng sat on the main seat in the middle, with the left governor Liang Bian, right governor Cai Maode, inspector Gao Mingheng, Kaifeng prefect Wu Shishang, Kaifeng co-magistrate Sang Kaidi, general Huang Shu, general Chen Yongfu, left chief Li Yingchun, Xiangfu magistrate Wang Xie, Xiangfu magistrate Wang Kun, Zhou Wang Dao and other officials gathered in the lobby.

"Everyone, the thieves attacked the Wuweibo camp in the north of the city and were injured. They changed their tactics and built camps to block the Wuweibo rescue road and surrounded Kaifeng. They would attack the city soon. I hope that you will share the same hatred for the enemy and jointly defend Kaifeng to ensure the safety of the people of Kaifeng!" Li Xianfeng looked around and said.
