Chapter 1056: The Battle of the Coffin-Carrying

For Andongliefu, who had been under high-pressure bombardment the entire time, the possibility of being ambushed by this rabble simply did not exist.

This was the pride of an Empire naval Commander, a confidence born from the guarantee of powerful military strength.

Four days.

He believed that four days was already the limit for these Longyan.

"Land!"

"Land!"

Because there were no proper port docks, the warships could not pull alongside the shore at all; the warships had a deep draft, and forcing them to shore would only cause them to run aground, rendering them unable to sail.

Therefore, the landing boats had a purpose at this time.

Ten thousand men!

The mighty Tsarist Russia navy had quite a few speedboats equipped on their warships. But each time, they could only accommodate ten thousand men for landing.

But...

It did not matter.

At this moment, the Longyan had already been scattered by them. Moreover, he still had supreme confidence in the combat effectiveness of his Tsarist Russia soldiers. How could the feeble Longyan be a match for their Tsarist Russia Army! Ten thousand Tsarist Russia troops could annihilate thirty thousand Longyan! This was an absolute gap in combat power!

Soon.

Ten thousand fully armed Tsarist Russia soldiers had already set out one after another from the sides of the warships.

Niu Chaofeng had also taken all of this into his view through the Telescope.

Strong!

Just looking at the physique of these Tsarist Russia men and their Weaponry and Equipment, one knew what a powerful force this was. Such a powerful regular army was enough to make one feel intimidated. Compared to them, saying that his own side was a rabble was not an exaggeration at all...

If such a Tsarist Russia Army were truly allowed to land successfully, that would be a very terrifying thing.

"It all depends on you all..."

Niu Chaofeng put down the Telescope; his face was weary, and his voice was hoarse.

Behind him were five Red Barbarian Cannon brought over from the nearest place in Liaodong...

Yes.

Only a pitiful five.

This was not even as good as the equipment on a single warship opposite them.

On the Tsarist Russia warships, at least one ship was equipped with at least twenty Cannon! This time, they had come to raid with five large warships!

Five against one hundred...

"Don't worry, sir. As long as the range is narrowed to a certain degree, our Cannon are absolutely precise!"

The members of this small team operating the Cannon were all full of confidence.

This was a product from Yintan City; how could those crude Cannon of Tsarist Russia compare?

Niu Chaofeng gave a self-deprecating smile: "I hope so..."

Burning the bridges.

This time.

He had truly burned his bridges.

But he had no Method; if things continued to be consumed like this, he would definitely not be able to wait for the Liaodong reinforcements...

At this moment, the land, which had been bombarded countless times and blasted down by a layer, was pockmarked, and the camp that had been here was long gone. The defensive fortifications had also long been blasted to pieces. But this place was the only path the Tsarist Russia soldiers had to take to land... On the undeveloped Kuye Island, only this place allowed them to land. Other places would even cause one to lose their way.

At this time.

This place was devastated.

But these five Cannon were already precisely aimed at this spot.

The first batch of ten Tsarist Russia small boats had already reached the shore, and those burly Tsarist Russia men had already charged down. Two thousand men.

The people on Niu Chaofeng's side were already tense to the limit.

The place they were at was a small hill, enough to 【overlook the area】.

Two thousand men... four thousand men...

Six thousand men!

"Big Brother..."

"Boss, we can strike now!"

"Big Brother..."

A group of people urged him, because these Tsarist Russia men were not stupid; after landing in batches, they did not gather excessively, but instead advanced toward Kuye Island in batches.

"No rush, wait a little longer..."

Niu Chaofeng stared intently at the situation over there.

He had to strike fear into these Russians all at once, disrupt their military morale, and disrupt their fighting spirit! Make them think that the Longyan Army had already arrived! Only in this way would they have a chance to continue defending until the real reinforcements arrived.

Eight thousand...

Ten thousand...

At this moment, several people beside Niu Chaofeng were already somewhat unable to hold back.

"Wait a little longer, let them advance a bit more, a bit closer..."

Niu Chaofeng was also very nervous at this time.

He was not a general from a military academy to begin with; he was originally a drifter who had matured while riding the waves during the development of the Liaodong Economic Special Zone. Killing and looting were naturally nothing to him, but this was the first time he had encountered such a formal war. Encountering it for the first time, he had to do such a thrilling thing... How could he not be nervous? He knew that if he failed, Kuye Island would truly be lost. He would then have no face to see the elders of Liaodong, and no face to go back and face that Vice Minister Liu he had never met!

This could be considered his battle of carrying his own coffin!

The ten thousand-strong Tsarist Russia Army had already begun to run across the pockmarked ground.

Finally.

Once they reached the attack range Niu Chaofeng deemed most suitable, he suddenly shouted, "Fire!"

Following his command, five Red Barbarian Cannons fired simultaneously.

Following that, those brothers who had been lying in ambush also stood up; at the same time, the bows and Crossbows in their hands unleashed a rain of arrows across the mountains and plains, ten thousand arrows flying at once.

"Kill!"

"Fire!"

The ten-thousand-strong army of Tsarist Russia was instantly stunned.

Had these Longyan not been scattered by them? How did so many suddenly appear again? They were all over the mountains and plains! It looked like nothing but human figures! In reality, there were not that many people here; it was just that they had all been hiding in the woods and hills, and their sudden appearance still gave one a sense of intimidation.

Dense and packed, it was impossible for anyone to tell how many there were!

And the Cannonballs from the five Red Barbarian Cannons landed accurately right in the middle of those ten thousand men; in the first instant, they blasted many of them to pieces, and for a time, remains, arms, and legs were flying everywhere in the air.

"Damn it! It's an ambush!"

"Bastards!"

"These detestable Longyan!"

"Fire!"

However, these Russians were no pushovers. The ten thousand men who landed first were mostly Musketeers. As a naturally warlike people, they naturally possessed a belief that feared neither life nor death; facing this artillery fire and the sky-filling rain of arrows, they naturally had ways to respond: one person would raise a Shield, and another would use a Musket to counterattack from behind the Shield.

The reaction speed of a regular army was fully manifested at this moment.

"Fire!"

Niu Chaofeng immediately felt the pressure as well.

The ten thousand Russian Army soldiers began to disperse to counter the artillery fire.

Just at this moment.

Niu Chaofeng's brothers, who had long been lying in ambush nearby, also began to charge out.

Ten thousand men!

Niu Chaofeng had arranged ten thousand men for close-quarters combat! These ten thousand men were naturally not intended to confront the Russian Army head-on! Instead, they were to maneuver around the flanks, specifically responsible for dealing with those Russian Army soldiers trying to disperse, forcing them back into the range where the Cannon and arrows could strike!
