please make me king

"Boom, boom, boom!" Accompanied by the sound of intensive artillery, the last ship of the Houjin Navy was also smashed to pieces, and slowly sank into the vast ocean, and the rebel ship immediately cheered.

"Huh~" Seeing this, Zhao Liangdong, the general soldier of Tianjin, couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, and his heart was relieved.

To be honest, the strength of the rebel navy is not bad, at least it is enough to deal with the broken ships like Hou Jin.

However, the "sail battleship" of "King Shun's whim" is huge and slow to turn. Once it is approached by an enemy ship, it is at risk of being burned or jumping to the gang.

Of course, where is there no risk in fighting?
But this "Fengzhou-class sailing battleship" is obviously highly valued by His Royal Highness King Shun.

If there is an emergency, as a general, he has no way to report to His Highness.

However, fortunately, the firepower of this "sail battleship" was extremely fierce, and the Houjin ship was smashed to pieces before it could get close.

Now that the sea threat has been lifted, Zhao Liangdong is full of spirits, and he can't help waving his hand, ordering: "Dock, prepare to land!"

Lushunkou is located at the southernmost tip of the Liaodong Peninsula, across the sea from the Denglai Peninsula. Due to the winding coastline, it has become one of the ideal hot ports.

Lushunkou was originally called Shizikou, because in the fourth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang sent two generals Ma Yun and Ye Wang to lead an army from Penglai to land here and recover Liaodong.

It happened that the sea journey was smooth sailing, so the place was renamed Lushunkou.

Because of its strategic significance of "Northern Pass, Gyeonggi Gateway", a military fortress with a military port as the core was built here after more than ten years in the late Qing Dynasty.

Although the land power still overwhelmed the sea power at that time, Zhu Yuanzhang had already keenly realized the importance of this place, so he set up the Jinzhou Wei Zhongzuo Qianhu Office here and set up a navy.

However, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu's virtue declined, and the Liaodong Peninsula changed hands several times. In the end, the Liaodong area including Lushunkou finally fell into the hands of Hou Jin.

After that, although Jin's soldiers were dominant on land, they were inferior to water warfare.

Although occupying the four prefectures of Jingai Fuwei, they often faced harassment from the Ming army in Denglai and Dongjiang, making it difficult to establish a stable rule.

Until Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and Shang Kexi brought troops to vote, Mrs. Hong took the opportunity to "separate" them here as a barrier.

At first, Kong Youde roughly controlled the areas of Gaizhou and Haizhou, and Geng Zhongming controlled the areas of Fuzhou and Jinzhou.

Later, Shang Kexi came to vote, and Mrs. Hong gave Kong Youde Hai Prefecture to Shang Kexi, and Geng Zhongming Fuzhou to Liu Zhiyuan, a Han Chinese who had defected to Houjin very early.

In this way, not only the strength of Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming was weakened, but also their territory was separated to prevent them from collude and rebellion in private.

As for Lushun Castle, the key point, Hong Tai entrusted Shi Mingxiong and Song Guofu to guard it.

The former is in charge of Fort Lushun, which was renamed from Zhongzuo Qianhu in Jinzhou, while the latter controls the Lushun Navy, which is almost better than nothing.

Now that the Jinshui Division has discovered the movement of the rebel navy, although the combat ships are almost exhausted, at least the news has been passed back.

Song Guofu was taken aback when he heard the words, and hurriedly led his troops to resist, and at the same time sent someone to notify the guard of Lushun Castle, Shi Mingxiong.

By the time Song Guofu led his people to Lushunkou, there was already a lot of killing in the port.

It turned out that the rebel army had already taken advantage of the great opportunity of the defeat of the Houjinshui Division to enter Lushunkou.

After mooring in the port, the Jinshui division could not escape in time, and was immediately blocked by the rebel navy, and became a turtle in an urn.

As the saying goes: "A tiger falls into Pingyang and is bullied by dogs, and a dragon enters shallow water and is attacked by shrimps." No matter how good your navy is, once you are blocked in the port, you can only be at the mercy of others.

Not to mention that the Hou Jinshui division is not worth mentioning, and it is in danger of being overthrown in an instant.

"Quick, stop them!" Song Guofu couldn't help but panic when he saw the current situation.

As a general of the Han Dynasty, how can he compare to others except for a little proficiency in water warfare?
If he lost his foundation this time, he could only wipe his neck.

It turns out that Lushunkou is located in a harbor on the east side of the southern tip of the Liaodong Peninsula, facing south from the north, with Jinjin Mountain on the east, Laotie Mountain on the southwest, and a peninsula extending from the direction of Laotie Mountain to the south. It is called "Tiger Tail". ".

On land, there is only one road in the north, and on the sea, there is only a narrow waterway between the "Tiger Tail" and the Golden Mountain on the east.

Now the rebels own the waterway and the "Tiger Tail". The rebels are attacking the port at the foot of the Golden Mountain, and the situation is in jeopardy for a while.

Song Guofu was not a mediocre person either, and he could see the key point at a glance.

He couldn't help shouting: "If the port falls, it will be cut according to military law. If you want to survive, follow me to retake the port and ships."

Then along the coast, they came to kill at the foot of the Golden Mountain.

"Song Guofu, where are you going?" Just when the group of Song Guofu arrived near the port, they only heard a loud shout, but saw a group of men and horses coming out of the slanting stab.

Then Song Guofu looked up and saw that it was "Huaishun King" Geng Zhongming, he couldn't help but sink in his heart: "Is it you?"

"That's right, it's me, I, Geng Zhongming, have come back again!" Geng Zhongming said with a cold smile. "Golden State and Fuzhou are mine, and they are mine!"

When Song Guofu heard Geng Zhongming's words, his liver and gallbladder were torn apart.

Do you know why?

It turned out that Song Guofu and Shi Mingxiong were sent to Lushun Fort by Hong Tai'an to supervise Geng Zhongming, so in the past, the two of them often put eye drops on this man.

While waiting for Geng Zhongming to "rebel", the two took the opportunity to "take care" of his family members.

Now that the assassin Geng Zhongming is back, how can there be any good fruit for them?
Of course, this isn't the scariest thing yet.

The most frightening thing is that Geng Zhongming had been operating in Jinzhou for several years, and most of the soldiers and civilians under Jinzhou's rule were brought across the sea by him.

Once these people heard that Geng Zhongming was coming back, he couldn't imagine what the consequences would be.

The evil consequences of Jin's disastrous defeat in the pass have emerged. In addition to the rapid reduction of soldiers capable of fighting and the outbreak of domestic conflicts, the demise of the "San Shun King" has created a emptiness on the line from Jinzhou to Haizhou.

Originally, Duoduo and Daishan had the opportunity to readjust their deployment to solve this problem.

However, they were too eager to perfect the entire defense of Liaodong, but underestimated Zhang Shun's strategic vision and the mobilization ability of the rebel army. As a result, Zhang Shun keenly found the loophole in this defense.

Therefore, Zhang Shun sent Zhang Sanbai to attack the Guangning area with great fanfare, in fact, to mobilize the last mobile force at the critical moment when Hou Jin launched a fierce attack on Dongjiang Town.

Once Duoduo and his men were restrained by Zhang Sanbai, the line from Jinzhou to Fuzhou, from Fuzhou to Gaizhou, and from Gaizhou to Haizhou would be easily broken by the rebels.

Once Haizhou falls, the rebels can pinch Duoduo's main force to the east and threaten Liaoyang to the north.

Song Guofu would not have such a deep understanding, but based on his general understanding of the entire Liaodong Peninsula in Houjin, it is inevitable that some bad thoughts will arise in his heart.

"Brothers, kill me, reinforcements will arrive soon!" Although Song Guofu was quite uneasy, he still had a trace of hope in his heart.

As long as he can withstand the attack of the "Shun Thieves" on the port, and wait until Shi Mingxiong brings Lushun Fort troops to detour to Laotieshan and regain the "Tiger Tail", there is still a lot to be done.

This "tiger tail" is like the tail of Lao Tieshan, lying in front of the entire Lushunkou.

If it falls into the hands of the rebels, it will be easy to control the entire harbor;
But once it is taken back by Hou Jin, the rear of the soldiers who attacked the port will be threatened, and naturally they can only return without success.

Song Guofu understood this clearly, but he didn't know that if the rebel army's attack on Lushun was not smooth, then Zhang Shun's strategic plan to attack Liaodong this time would suffer a serious setback.

This is unacceptable to Zhao Liangdong, the general soldier of Tianjin, Geng Zhongming, the "King of Huai", and Zhang Shun's confidant, Zhao Lizi.

Therefore, in the face of Song Guofu's trapped beast, Geng Zhongming also put on his own clothes, and a bitter battle was imminent.
