After Emperor Hongzhi finished speaking, he was still worried.

He opened his mouth to say something, but someone came in again: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... a large number of defeated soldiers are about to enter the city, they are about to enter the city."

The Jinwu Guard...will collapse at the touch of a finger.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "Kaicheng, let them enter the city quickly."

Not long after, a seriously injured Qianhu was brought in. The Qianhu was tearful and panicked: "Your Majesty, Chenzhou is waiting for him...he..."

This Marquis of Chenzhou, who has been guarding the palace, is the confidant of Emperor Hongzhi. At this time, Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "Do you know life and death?"

"I don't know, but... I'm afraid something unexpected will happen."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "Although he is disadvantaged in battle, he takes the lead in fighting and can be called loyal and brave."

Qianhu said: "When Lord Hou charged into battle, he once recited a poem..."

At this time, Emperor Hongzhi was in no mood to listen to poetry.

Ma Wensheng said at this time: "The matter of this poem will be discussed later. The most important thing now is to strengthen the city defense of Tianjin Wei. In the Tanggu area, and there are still Xiaoqi Battalions, they can be ordered to return to defense immediately..."

A military meeting has already begun.

The thousand households were extremely cold when they heard that His Majesty and the ministers were not interested in poetry.

Even the poems are not allowed to read, how can I live up to the dead Marquis of Chenzhou.

After all, Ma Wensheng was the minister of the Ministry of War. In addition, the commander of the Warrior Battalion in Tianjin Weizhong also got involved.

It was agreed by the people that they ordered the Xiaoqi battalion to return to the defense and stationed nearby, forming a corner, waiting for work at ease, and sticking to Tianjin Guard, so that the Spaniard had no chance to take advantage of it.

The longer the delay, the greater the advantage of Daming.

But……

Everything was beyond the expectations of Emperor Hongzhi and others.

Because, after more than two hours, the Spaniards had already arrived at the city of Tianjin.

Soldiers are expensive and fast.

All this has greatly exceeded the expectations of the monarchs and ministers.

According to the assembly time that Ma Wensheng said, it is absolutely impossible for the Spaniards to be so fast.

This is also the reason why he called the Xiaoqi Camp.

But……

"Your Majesty...these Spaniards are not simple." Ma Wensheng couldn't help but shudder, he had a premonition that something was wrong: "It's not that the old minister didn't pay attention to Franchi, just say that Franji's Portuguese, Their army is in the West, and they are brave and powerful in combat. They subdue the natives of the West and are victorious in every battle. However, the veterans roughly estimated that the Portuguese army in the West has no more combat power than the warrior battalion. Maybe they are more proficient in using firearms, and they have practiced more diligently... But now it seems that this Spanish army horse is very important, I am afraid..."

Emperor Hongzhi's face was dismal, and he snorted coldly: "The Spaniards have traveled thousands of miles, so they came prepared, and the ones dispatched must be the elite of the Franji elite. How can we not take it lightly, and order to stick to it and wait for help."

Everything is too fast.

Completely beyond everyone's expectations.

The Jinwu Guard was quickly defeated, and then there was no need for repairs, and the long-distance attack was carried out. Others may not know the benefits and disadvantages of it, but Ma Wensheng knew best in his heart that this Spanish army horse was extraordinary.

It didn't take long before the sound of rumbling cannons came from outside the city.

The Spaniards had guns.

As soon as the artillery fire came out, the mountains shook immediately.

So much so that the city panicked.

…………

The smug Sir Francisco is now standing on the commanding heights, raising his binoculars and looking at Tianjin Wei in the distance.

The city of Tianjinwei is small, and there are a lot of countryside outside the city.

Obviously, after learning of the attack, many soldiers and civilians in the countryside had already entered the city.

He has no interest in sweeping the suburbs.

This acropolis must be captured quickly, and then advance towards the imperial city of Daming.

The soldiers quickly set up the artillery position, and dozens of artillery fired at once.

"This part of their city wall is made of rammed earth, step up the bombardment here." Sir Francisco now smiled.

Because... Daming's city defense is obviously much easier than I imagined. This is not a fortress built with huge rocks. Most of the city walls are only made of bricks and stones, and some of the city walls are even made of rammed earth. piled up.

During the hundred years of peace in the Ming Dynasty, except for the fortress, most of the city walls were better than nothing, which gave the Spaniards great convenience.

Sir Francisco put down his binoculars and nodded with satisfaction towards Wang Xizuo beside him: "Your Excellency, everything you said is correct. The Ming Empire is nothing but a giant with mud feet. Today, we will enter this city. Their capital is marching."

Wang Xizuo's heart began to beat.

He smiled, preoccupied.

The artillery in the city began to fight back.

However, the artillery on both sides is actually limited in accuracy, but the target of the Francis robot is a large area of ​​the city wall, while the Tianjin Wei fort is looking for an artillery position with a much smaller target below the city. Therefore, Sir Francisco is not worried. , what he wants is to break through the weak city defense of Tianjin Wei, as long as this goal is achieved, it will be fine.

The sound of rumbling guns continued to resound.

The city towers of Tianjin Wei are already riddled with holes.

The anxiety in the city is constantly magnifying.

Although the warrior battalion is sharpening their knives, His Majesty is in the city

On the contrary, everyone couldn't let go.

Had to hide in the city, waiting for the upcoming decisive battle.

In this way, the soldiers and civilians in the city began to become depressed.

…………

At the same time, the troops of the brigade meandered like long snakes.

Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan rode on horses, constantly urging the army horses to move fast.

Along the way, Zhu Houzhao was extremely anxious.

As for Fang Jifan, he gritted his teeth and complained: "I said earlier that we will land at Dagukou. Your Highness, I'm afraid something big will happen now. Our heads will definitely be lost."

Zhu Houzhao Ren Fang Jifan's various complaints, he was also a little speechless, but there was nothing he could do.

The Jinwu Guard could not stop the Spanish army.

And the most important thing is that he still didn't expect that the Spaniards would come so fast. Originally, in his conception, Tanggu and Dagukou would establish a solid line of defense.

But now...it's too late to say anything.

Fortunately, Changpingwei was also extremely fast under a single order.

After more than two months of training, the entire Changping Guard has changed from the former laxity.

Everyone practiced day and night, adopted the method of marching, and gave the best food. Not only that, the prince also personally collected private money to distribute salaries so that the officers and soldiers could support their families.

In the past, according to the organizational system of the guard, the soldiers of Changping Guard needed to cultivate the land. Once they were not allowed to farm, but cultivated every day, this would cause panic among the soldiers. After all, if you don’t farm the land, what will the family eat? And with the white money, the morale of the army is settled, and the good food is enough for their bodies to support high-intensity training.

The content of the drill is very simple and boring. This is also the elite of Fang Jifan's infantry drill method.

To some extent, any complicated tactical action is meaningless to the army.

Find out the most effective means of killing the enemy, and then let the soldiers practice it repeatedly a thousand times or ten thousand times, is the elite of the drill.

Like the so-called Longmen Formation, Long Snake Formation, and Tiger Wing Formation practiced by other guards, all these flowery pretensions should be cancelled, and it is fine if they can be formed into a queue.

Changpingwei's stamina exploded at this moment.

After getting used to the drill, they quickly started to move towards Tianjin Wei.

Oncoming, there are fleeing people, but in the distance, the sound of horseshoes can be heard.

Immediately, it was an eunuch, with a few imperial guards, hurried towards him. When he saw the troops of Changping Guard, he immediately shouted: "Your Highness, Your Highness, there is a decree, there is a decree..."

Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan looked at each other, and the two hurriedly flew forward to intercept each other.

The eunuch got off his horse and said, "His Royal Highness, please accept the order."

After his words fell, Zhu Houzhao swung the whip in his hand fiercely.

With a snap, the eunuch was hit with an ouch.

Zhu Houzhao bared his teeth and said, "What are you talking about?"

"There is a purpose..."

Zhu Houzhao was about to swing the whip again, and the eunuch was so frightened that he ran away.

"Try to say it again."

The eunuch cried: "Your Highness, the servants are serving..."

"Get lost!" Zhu Houzhao said.

Fang Jifan was on the side, peacemaker: "Your Highness, please don't get excited, Eunuch, His Royal Highness is in a bad mood, now... is an extraordinary time, please step aside, don't get in the way."

"But……"

Fang Jifan's face was still like a spring breeze, he turned his head, and suddenly there was a murderous look on his face: "Get out!"

As he spoke, let the horses go, took the people with them, and walked away.

…………

At this point, it was afternoon.

The city walls of Tianjin Wei are already cracked.

At this time, a troop of horses came slowly from the northeast.

On this flat plain, the war horses that meandered like long snakes began to spread out.

And the sound of the cannons stopped abruptly.

The Spaniards realized that a military horse had appeared to their northeast.

Sitting on the horse, the commanders of both sides held up their binoculars and observed each other.

Fang Jifan saw Wang Xizuo in the binoculars.

At this time... Seeing that Tianjin Wei has not yet fallen, both Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan heaved a long sigh of relief.

Now... the moment I saw Wang Xizuo.

Fang Jifan couldn't help grinning, holding the binoculars with one hand, and waving with the other, beckoning to Wang Xi, as if seeing his relatives.

This made Wang Xizuo, who was holding a telescope on the opposite side, look at it, his face turned green with fright, and hurriedly put down the telescope.

On the side, Sir Francisco seemed to have seen the situation, and couldn't help cursing: "This is an insult. I saw the person opposite, and he smiled contemptuously at me!"

"Yes, Sir, he is insulting you." Wang Xizuo's heart jumped up.

"Get rid of them and pass on my orders, infantrymen..." Sir Francisco roared, "We spent half a year preparing, more than half a year, overcoming the waves and coming here, and now... God bestowed upon us The rich land is right in front of our eyes, kill this group of natives, we can indulge here, just like we did in North Africa and America, now... listen to my order, attack!"
