Chapter two hundred and eighty fourth: put on death row
Woketai was stunned.
Looking at the Ming army boat in front of him, he was stunned.
This is indeed how it fires!
He practiced five times, and every time the wooden rakes that acted as enemies were bombarded and defeated, why was this the case in front of him?
Guo Xiu was already roaring: "Where is the boat? Where is the boat that I drew!"
Guo Xiu, who had no navy in his hand, specially recruited some merchant ships to guard the intersection of Jiujiang. After setting off artillery, he laid them in the reed marsh along the river.
Using merchant ships to deal with warships will naturally be a complete defeat, but the small boats used to deal with the fire are sure to win!
Not to mention using artillery, even if you hit it directly, you can knock the fireboat overturn!
As for the method of setting fire to deal with the big ship...
The fire ships used to burn iron chains on the river are not the same as the fire ships used to siege large ships!
As long as the Ming army dares to send fire ships to burn iron chains, his boats will be able to overturn these fire ships. If the Ming army sends warships to deal with his boats, they will fall into Guo Xiu's trap!
The reason why the shortest straight line between two points is that as long as the head is breathing, you will understand it.
The fort he arranged was at the base of the iron chain. As long as the Ming Navy came, these artillery could teach them how to be human!
Who knows...
A dog-dollar home can bring disaster to the country and the people!
With Guo Xiu's arrival, even though the Green Camp soldiers under his command found their backbone.
Immediately, a general came forward and cried:
"Military, these Manchus are too bullying. I have repeatedly explained the importance of these boats. However, they actually dispersed the merchant ships that the military had finally summoned on the grounds that the Han people were unreliable and would definitely rebel and surrender to Zhu San..."
"Ah, I'm going to kill you!"
Guo Xiu was furious and drew out the sword and was about to chop it towards the Nekhai.
"Bold, kneel down!"
Woketai's face changed drastically, destroying Guo Xiu's arrangement, causing Zhufan's arrangement to be destroyed, and the guilt in his heart had disappeared.
"Bold Guo Xiu, dare to show his weapons to me?"
Woketai was furious immediately.
This group of damn Aha, I don’t know who is the master of this land!
The court made these Ahas the greatest gift to them. How dare Guo Xiu attack him?
Wuna Aha, don’t you know that letting them live is the greatest gift from the court?
"Come on, take it for me!"
"Prepare it to death, wait until I report it to the court and ask him for a long time!"
With a wave of his hand, a soldier immediately tied up Guo Xiu, and even the generals under Guo Xiu who were trying to rescue him were tied up.
Guo Xiu, who had just walked out of prison, walked back to prison again...
But before that he was trying to comfort Li Jin and speak out for this upright and good official.
However, at this time, Guo Xiu had become a prisoner.
The cause of the incident was that it was just a governor of the first grade, a first-rank official, who said something angry to a second-rank deputy general.
Guo Xiu's heart was ashamed, and his words turned his enthusiasm into coldness.
Just as he was escorted into the city, Guo Xiu turned his head and saw the small boat burning the last iron lock in the river, like a spring installed at the bottom of the ship, suddenly jumping up from the surface of the river.
"No, the iron lock is broken!"
Guo Xiu's face changed drastically.
Don’t underestimate these seemingly useless iron locks, but in fact, the iron locks have a great effect in the Jiang defense battle!
When using warships to deal with turrets, the only advantage of the ship is its ability to maneuver.
The range of artillery is significant. Besides, the inertia on the river surface is high. Before destroying the iron lock on the river, the ship can only be fixed on the river water to bombard the cannon!
Because of the huge inertia, if the warship sways and fights, it will inevitably hit the iron lock.
Under huge inertia, these ships will inevitably capsize besides the damage to the bottom of the ship.
This is also the reason why the Ming army had the advantage of artillery, but had to destroy the iron lock first.
Because no matter how sharp the artillery is, the range is limited. If you want to hit the turret at both ends of the iron lock, you must be very close to the iron lock...
"Jiujiang is over..."
Guo Xiu only felt that all his energy had disappeared.
"Jiangxi is over..."
He lowered his head dejectedly.
After being removed from his neck and wearing it, he lost his two fixed braids and slid down in front of Guo Xiu.
"Pu.pu."
The little braid gently patted Guo Xiu's face.
Guo Xiu's eyes were turbid and his sorrow was no greater than his heart's death. His face suddenly changed.
When did you have this braid?
He was originally from Jimo, Qingzhou, and his family was just a middle-class family, and he was not even considered a big landlord.
He still remembered that his grandmother often said that on the day he was born, it was June that the flood broke out in Jimo.
While Jimo County Magistrate and Generals inspected the flood situation, the sky suddenly became dark clouds and heavy rain poured down. The two officials had to take refuge in the downstairs of Guo Xiu Gate Tower in Guojia Lane.
At this time, the crying of a newborn baby suddenly came from the delivery room, and the heavy rain gradually stopped after the child was born.
Grandma ran out happily, and the county magistrate asked, "Has the old man congratulated you, have you added a boy or a girl?"
"I gave birth to a horse riding a little boy. Alas, I won't give birth sooner or later, but it was raining heavily." The old man said angrily.
"This child will be very lucky in the future. When he was born, he was a seventh-rank official, one civil and one military officer, he would protect his door. He would definitely not be lower than the seventh-rank official in the future." The county magistrate praised casually.
"Oh, don't talk about the seventh grade, it's better to have the first grade!" Grandma said excitedly when she heard the praise.
"I'm not too small!" The county magistrate laughed when he heard this.
Guo Xiu sighed.
Rural women are proud of being modest, but their grandmother is ignorant, but they think that the fewer the ranks, the smaller the official rank.
This surveillance has spread throughout Jimo and has become a joke in the local area...
He was talented since childhood, eager to learn and be ambitious. He had the words of a child prodigy when he was young, and he also became a disciple of Xu Qianxue, who is well-known in literature.
He was less than thirty years old and passed the scholar's examination. Before the thirty years old, he surpassed his mentor and passed the imperial examination and passed the imperial examination one after another. He even entered the officialdom for a few years and was promoted to the governor of the place.
This joke from that year became a compliment for the Guo family to have Qilin's son...
Guo Xiu didn't know how he walked into the cell. When the soldiers who were escorting him had not taken care of the prison guards to entertain Guo Xiu well, he suddenly heard the sound of cannons outside.
The soldiers who escorted him quickly left a sentence of strict supervision, and then hurried away.
"Military Gate, I was the one who harmed you!"
Li Jin pulled the pillar with both hands and cried in tears.
"Military Gate, the court is not right to us..."
The generals imprisoned on one side spoke one after another.
