Liaodong Golden State Guard.
The Golden State Guard was built on Lushun Peninsula, north of the Peninsula.
It was very close to Lushunkou.
On this day, hundreds of battleships were floating on the surface of the Golden State Guard's sea. They were densely packed together and blocked out the sun as they charged toward the Golden State Guard without any concealment.
"Damn it, they're here again!”
" Be alert, enemy attack!!"
"Those who are not afraid of death, come. I want to avenge the people of Lushunkou!”
"Our Golden State Warriors are not as easy to bully as Lushunkou!”
“.....”
The entire Golden State Guard was shaken. All kinds of smoke were ignited, and at the same time, all kinds of alarms sounded, alerting everyone in the Golden State Guard.
The Manchurian Tartars looked at the hundreds of ships that were coming from the sea with ferocious expressions. They trembled as they held their swords, bows, and arrows and roared in anger.
He looked like an incompetent dog barking wildly.
On the flagship of the fleet.
The commander-in-chief of the navy looked at the panic-stricken and incompetent tartars of all sizes and sneered."Liaodong, I'm here again. So what if I'm on guard? Today, if I say I'll destroy all the Tartars in Jinzhou, I'll destroy them!”
The thousands of tartars from the Golden State Guard were fully armed and glaring at him like tigers eyeing their prey, but he didn't feel any fear or worry.
The Tartars practiced a system of all citizens becoming soldiers. Every adult Tartar above the age of sixteen needed to go to the battlefield.
In addition to the fact that they had plundered the Great Ming Empire for decades, every banner soldier's family had sufficient weapons in reserve. As a result, as long as they could move, they would take their weapons and prepare to go to the battlefield.
However, war was not won just because you had more people!
If all the people were soldiers, it meant that their organizational strength was low and their combat strength was weak.
Furthermore, Weihai Wei had also come prepared this time. They had brought an entire Wei, an army of nearly 5,000 soldiers!
Five thousand of these guards were comparable to ten thousand elite soldiers!
They were armed to the teeth, fed and trained every day. They were truly well-trained and maintained their combat effectiveness.
Although they were still using a similar establishment as the Great Ming Guards, their military construction far surpassed this era!
Whether it was weapons, equipment, training, or fighting will, they far surpassed any army in this era.
To put it bluntly, in this era, an army that could withstand 10% of the casualties and not lose was already considered elite.
However, as long as Lin Feng was willing, the three Wei Guards of the Weihai Army could fight to the death!
His battle will could be said to have reached a heaven-defying level.
Of course, Lin Feng would never do that. The elites that they had painstakingly nurtured had all died in battle. What else could they do?! Moreover, it was not easy to nurture an army with combat strength and experience.
This was especially true for the commanders in the military. This was not something that military schools could nurture.
The military officers produced by the military academy could only be second-in-command. After a period of internship and gaining actual combat experience, Lin Feng would turn them into full-time officers and lead the army alone.
In this way, as long as he maintained the structure of the army, he would be able to continuously replenish his troops and maintain his combat effectiveness.
The 5,000 soldiers of the 1st Guard Field Army were comparable to 10,000 elite soldiers. This was also under the condition that they could win the battle.
Under Lin Feng's unlimited resources, the Weihai Wei's field army was this strong!
Ling Yun was filled with confidence!
If he were to lead the navy's skip squad to attack the city, he might be a little hesitant and worried. After all, the skip squad was trained to fight on the warship.
Be it professionalism or weapons, they were far inferior to the professional army field troops.
This time, they had brought more than a hundred merchant ships that weighed more than a thousand tons. There were countless merchant ships that weighed five hundred tons and three hundred tons.
It was precisely because he had made a lot of money after plundering Lushunkou last time that Lin Feng had made up his mind to go all out.
This time, Ling Yun had received Lin Feng's order to wreak havoc in the territory of the Qing Dynasty!
"Prepare the crossbows!"
With a command, all the warships lined up and aimed at the Golden State Guard's dock.
Even though there were very few Tartars on the dock, Ling Yun didn't mind wasting a large number of ballista bolts. He began to clean up the battlefield.
Pu, pu, pu, pu!
The densely packed crossbow bolts, each five to six meters long, brought with them incomparable power. All obstacles on the dock, whether people or objects, were shot down.
The navy's crossbows should not be underestimated just because they were bed crossbows. Their attack range was as high as a thousand meters. They were almost as good as cannons!
In terms of offensive capabilities, they were naturally inferior to the cannons that could destroy walls. However, in terms of clearing capabilities and firepower density, the firepower of hundreds of ballistae could be said to be insane.
No one dared to approach within a thousand meters!
There was no shield or armor that could block the power of the ballista.
The steel crossbow head could even pierce through hard rocks!
One could see how terrifying its power was!
The Tartar soldiers and Han soldiers, who had never experienced such terrifying ballistae attacks, retreated in fear. Especially when he saw his companions hanging on the wall like a bunch of candied haws. They looked so miserable that they almost peed their pants.
It was even more terrifying than cannons!
At least the cannon fire was less concentrated and could be dodged.
But under the concentrated fire of hundreds and thousands of crossbows, where could he hide?!
They had no choice but to give up on the dock and stop the Wei Sea Guards from landing. They retreated to the city and prepared to defend the Golden State Guards.
The massive smoke was ignited and spread around the Golden State Guard.
The difference in strength was too great. Defending the city and waiting for reinforcements was the only thing they could do.
"Let the second guard of the army disembark. Leave the matters on land to them!”
Ling Yun shook his head disinterestedly when he saw that the Golden State Guards were scared. He handed the tough Golden State Guards to the Second Guard of the army. He was prepared to lead the navy fleet to sweep through the towns, manors, and relay stations along the coast.
These places didn't have much defensive power, and the navy's own skip squad could easily take them down.
Leaving a dozen battleships to guard the dock, the rest of the battleships scattered and searched for their targets.
On the merchant ship, the soldiers of the Second Army Guard disembarked and stepped onto the pier of the Golden State Guard, heaving heavy sighs of relief.
It felt so good to stand on the ground again!
They were still not used to floating on the sea. Land was their second guard's home ground.
As the second guard landed at the Golden State Guard's dock, they began to open up the battlefield in units of hundred households, setting up various fortifications and guarding the surroundings.
They were waiting for the accompanying farmers on the merchant ship to come ashore.
In an army battle, especially a siege, farmers could not be absent.
Nearly five thousand Second Guards, armed to the teeth, came ashore and appeared in front of the Golden State Guard Tartars, causing them to draw in a breath of cold air.
Looking at the Second Guard's gleaming steel armor and helmet, as well as their neat formation, he realized that these bold Wei Hai Army Guards were not to be trifled with.
Elite!
A true elite!
When the Jinzhou City Guard garrison officer saw the appearance of the Weihai Army's Second Guard, he was so worried that he was about to cry.
The soldiers of the Second Guard were just standing there and gathering, but he felt an overwhelming pressure. It was as if a black cloud had covered the sky.
