Sweep the World

Chapter 1069: : Han flag flutters

Milpur is not a big city for Sassan, because it is located on the coast and it is not a strategic location. From its establishment to the present day, no major war has occurred. Usually the rest of the city has fallen. The head changed its banner and became one of the many cities under the territory of the next ruling family.

Milbul, who has not experienced war for 227 years, today faces the first challenge after the city is built, and it comes from the ocean.

The lord of the city, Busha Berding, stood on the head of the city, looking at the densely packed ships on the sea in the distance, and then at the city that was completely messed up after a round of shelling. He wanted Ang Tian to ask the Han people not to fight in other places, come and fight. What does Milpur do in a city that has no strategic value at all.

The population of Mirpur is about 30,000. After the chaos, you can see stumbling figures everywhere. Many people actually follow others when they see others running, and there is no clear destination at all.

"Is the Han army going to land?" Bousha A. Berding thought he was still a man of courage. Knowing that the upper city wall might be hit by shells from the Han gunboats, he went up to the city head: "We are here. Without a port, the Han army can only use small boats to land."

The Chinese gunboat's firing in the previous round was random, and the purpose of course was to mess up Mirbul. While carrying out the artillery bombardment, the landing troops began their own beach-washing preparations.

Only a dozen war boats washed the beach first. They were responsible for exploring the depth of the beach and serving as an outpost for the friendly forces who were about to land.

Huan Wen, who was on the Linzi flagship, used a binoculars to observe the situation on the land. He could see that a large group of people gushed out of the city gate, and it didn't take long for the gate to be closed.

Wang Meng had just caught up with the troops two days ago. He knew that when the fleet was about to attack Mirpur, the combat plan had been implemented. Otherwise, Huan Wen was not advised to attack Mirpur, even if it was to attack Mirpur, he would sail another hundred to the north. For about thirty nautical miles, a coastal city called Ji Ni has a higher attack value than Mirpur.

"Fight another round of naval guns." Of course, Huan Wen was not talking to Wang Meng, but to the fleet's lieutenant Yuan Qiao: "Let the artillery blast towards the city gate as much as possible."

Yuan Qiao has been a long history of Huan Wen for a long time, but this time with the commander of the army is Wang Meng, he is arranged to be the lieutenant of the expeditionary fleet.

The Linzi’s gunners used microphones to give orders, while the rest of the gunboats relied on semaphores.

About five minutes later, the nine gunboats re-sounded, and amidst the roars after another, there was a sudden burst of smoke in Milble in the distance, especially the direction of the city gate was quickly enveloped by thick smoke.

The smoke has gunpowder from cannonballs, and more is the dust and smoke that is smashed down and worn with great strength.

Bronze guns are almost inaccurate. Whether they can hit the target depends on luck. When the target is specifically targeted, it relies on putting more bronze guns and using dense enough bullet points to blind cats and dead mice.

For Bousha Aberdeen, what happened before him was simply a nightmare. He curled up behind the city wall, feeling the constant trembling of the city wall under his feet, and what he heard in his ears was a violent crash after another. Was scared to nothing.

"The impact points are very dense." Yuan Qiao stared at the smog area, and scanned the nearby war boats waiting to form the assault formation, and said: "There are about 800 enemy troops appearing on the city wall. It is impossible to confirm this one. How many defenders are there in the city."

"Sassanian cities generally have more than a thousand defenders." Wang Meng did not want to be a transparent man: "The fleet first invaded two Satraps before landing in Lek. With the Persian's attention to the big man, the city lord of Milbur will inevitably Desperately expand the army, and then the garrison of the surrounding villages will be concentrated in the city, and the garrison should not be less than three thousand."

Huan Wen was still willing to believe in Wang Meng's judgment.

The place that was under constant bombardment, how the city gate was shrouded in thick smoke for a while was difficult to say clearly, after a whine that seemed to be sore, a loud sound of collapse appeared.

In the area originally covered by heavy smoke, it is suspected that the city wall has collapsed, and the denser smoke enveloped a larger area. In the area not covered by heavy smoke, there were bursts of exclamation and hissing.

Lu Bing, who was paddling hard, paused for a while, and then paddled the oars harder, shouting, "The city wall has collapsed!"

A war boat can hold up to fifteen people, and it usually carries 13 crew members, which happens to be a full crew.

Lu Bing is the very long on this battle boat. He was given an order to explore the beach, and he decided to act freely after exploring the beach based on his own judgment.

The soldiers on the same battleship heard Lu Bing's roar and immediately understood that everyone's eyes were staring, and their expressions became full of expectation.

They are truly pioneers, and as pioneers, even if they don't receive an enemy, they also have credit, and the greatest contribution of pioneers is to be a pioneer.

The Zhanzhou bottomed out 120 meters away from the coastline. Lu Bing looked down and frowned immediately.

The inclination of some seabeds is so weird. It is obvious that people only step on the calf position, but they are in the sea.

What they encountered was the worst situation in the landing battle. It is temporarily impossible to be sure that the entire beach is in the same situation. If they are all in this situation, it will be very difficult for the landing.

The surrounding battle boats bottomed out on the same line, and they stopped one after another. The soldiers on the battle boat jumped into the sea where the water depth was less than their knees, and they stepped on soft mud under their feet.

"Play semaphore." Lu Bing's expression was very bad: "It is necessary to build a ferry at least one hundred meters or more, and notify the follow-up troops to carry wooden boards."

Abandoning the landing in a bad situation is non-existent. As the army is performing its mission, let alone encountering an environment that is not suitable for landing, even if there is a sea of ​​swords and fires ahead, it must be overcome.

Not all beaches are sand, more beaches are mud.

Lu Bing and the others had to stop for more than ten meters. Every time they took a step, they struggled with the silt under their feet. I don’t know what happened. They walked a distance and entered an area of ​​unknown depth. One of the soldiers sank directly. After being submerged by sea water, the robe behind him was still swiftly pulling his hands and pulling it back up again.

You don't have to go to the sea, it's just a small water hole. If it gets trapped in silt, it's really not that easy to move.

If there is silt under your feet and the water level is high enough, once your head sinks under the surface of the water and you can’t swim if you want to swim, the harder you struggle, the more serious the trapping, and your lungs’ air will be quickly consumed clean due to activity. Then drowned.

"Retreat!" Lu Bing's expression was more than horrible: "Return to the battleship!"

No wonder the beach is not blocked by Persian troops, and there is no port in Mirpur, and there is not even a small fishing village on the seaside. It turns out that the beach is not suitable for activities at all?

Huan Wen on the Linzi was quickly reported, and he reacted immediately after a second or two: "Is it suitable for landing only during high tide?"

When the tide is high, the water level on the seashore will rise, and the height of the load on the water will naturally rise accordingly.

Look at the coast of Milpur again. Before, the water level was low but a large area was covered with sea water. If we were far away, we couldn't see the water level. Pioneers went to explore before confirming the inclination of the seabed.

Huan Wen was not familiar with this sea area, and it was the first time he encountered this kind of seabed beach. After hesitating for less than two seconds, he ordered: "Set up a ferry!"

"..." Wang Meng actually wanted to suggest giving up landing, but Huan Wen made a decision first.

Since it is a fleet and is always ready to invade, the preparations that must be made must be carried out, such as a large number of planks and necessary wooden stakes.

When encountering a new situation, the fleet commander moved his mouth, and the executors below were busy.

There was a scene on the sea where the group of war boats that were cruising in formation stopped paddling, and there were so many unknowns that they looked at the boats that were laying down the war boats again.

The sailors hurriedly brought in a large number of planks and stakes for the warship that was spread out on both sides of the hull. Soldiers belonging to the Army of Engineers put their things together, and started paddling to the beach in a group of four.

When they hit the bottom of the war boat, the two began to stand in a group.

The specifications of the stakes are not consistent, the longest is more than three meters, and the shortest is only one meter.

An engineer lifted the wooden pile and inserted it downward, and could feel that the bottom of the wooden pile seemed to be covered by something, and even a downward suction situation appeared. If the wooden pile is not firmly supported, the downward direction The suction force will cause the stake to fall out.

Lu Bing was standing on the battleship watching the engineers busy. They set up piles in pairs. When a three-meter-long wooden pile was inserted, they could be plunged into at least 1.8 meters. The depth of each place was inconsistent. If the pile is too high, it needs to be sawed off, and if it is short, it needs to be nailed to make up the height.

While the pile is being erected, the engineer will drop the plank onto the sea, and the plank thrown into the sea sinks, and the project name has a stable focus.

After the stakes of one pole are erected, a fixing frame needs to be nailed between the stakes so that they can be fixed with force, and finally the wooden boards are nailed on them.

"Brother." Lu Bing asked an engineer chief, "Can you give me some planks?"

Chen Hao nodded and pointed to the war boat next to him: "You want to go ashore first?"

Lu Bing was able to walk around safely when he saw the engineer drop the plank. He thought of laying planks all the way to the land, even if the planks are under water, but they still have a way to prevent them from sinking. The difference is just not like The passage of the ferry is above the water.

The rest of the people who had also received the landing order, they saw Lu Bing's behavior and began to follow suit.

The smoke at the Mirbul gate has dissipated, and it can be seen that the section of the city wall on this side has collapsed. Not only is there a gap in the location of the city gate, the collapsed section of the city wall has become a mound, and there has been a line with a width of about two. A gap of more than ten meters.

The city lord Busha Berding was on the collapsed city wall just now. If he hadn't been killed by a shell, he would have been buried after the collapse. Looking at the appearance of this area, it has been ten minutes since the collapse of the association. There is no need to save it. It is definitely dead.

After the smoke dissipated, the people in the city began to rush out from the gap. During the period, they were squeezed and trampled. Some people felt their bodies respond after they fell. When they stretched out their hands, they touched their hands or feet, but they were watching. Not the body, obviously there are people buried underneath.

After the city walls and towers collapsed, the relevant personnel of Mirpur didn't go to rescue the city owner who might still be alive. They all thought of leaving the city as soon as possible.

When the senior officials start to run, the middle-level officials will definitely be followed closely. After the grassroots officials find that both the senior and middle-level officials have begun to flee, they must have joined the fleeing, and then the city has basically lost control.

Once officials start to run, no matter how stupid people are, they will know that the city will be over, and then there will be a big wave of escape is basically doomed.

"The more than one hundred pilots have already started landing autonomously." Wang Meng looked at Huan Wen with a firm face and asked, "Should the follow-up troops keep up?"

Wang Meng was talking about Lu Bing and others. This group of people has built a passage that can waded and landed. Although there will be some twists and turns in the process, it is definitely much faster than building a ferry.

"..." Huan Wen knew that Wang Meng had gone to the sea of ​​Leke before coming to meet up. He also knew that Wang Meng had specifically learned about Liu Ming's condition, and he was displeased about this: "Yes!"

Huan Wen didn’t have any opinion on Wang Meng himself, but he thought that Wang Meng had no experience in large corps operations, and he did not dare to show rejection of the army commander who arranged for Wang Meng over to serve as the expeditionary fleet from the center (the emperor). fake.

It took about half an hour for Lu Bing and others, who were constantly laying planks and staying close to the beach, to set foot on the thicker land.

After they got ashore, they didn't immediately rush to the city of Mirpur. They explored the beachhead and reported the situation on the beachhead in semaphores to the rear.

The seabed is full of silt, and the beach head is also full of mud. If there are other things, some rotten wood and dead grass, no sand or stones can be seen.

It was confirmed that there were landing troops behind ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ They began to advance towards the city, and went up to a place with a wide view, seeing the desert full of people fleeing.

"There is no resistance." Lu Bing looked at the team and Zhou Zhuang with a sullen face, and agitated: "It seems that there is no counterattack. Let's attack the city, right?"

Zhou Zhuang was not directly under Lu Bing's superiors, but according to the rules of the battlefield of the Han army, a local area was either a person with a high official rank or a person with a high title, and they generally became the battlefield commander.

Hundreds of people approached the city slowly under the leadership of Zhou Zhuang. When they reached the periphery, they ran into the fleeing crowd and did not chase. They approached the edge of the city and quickly found a gap in the city wall. They saw their aliens seem to be fleeing and Kneeling and surrendering hesitated, part of it continued to flee, and more of it was kneeling on the ground.

They are divided into two teams, one enters and the other is out in case of accidents.

Lu Bing was all assigned to the team that entered the city. They entered the city and went up to the city wall, choosing to erect the Han flag on the wall that hadn't collapsed on the edge of the gap.

At the moment when the Han flag was flying above the city, the Han army on the sea cheered. Whether or not Persians are in the city, as long as they are not Han, they kneel on their knees!
