    It is obvious that the purpose of the navy officers and soldiers is to kill the rebels in Pingdu Pingduzhou Flood Camp and regain control of the navy's warships.  To regain control of the naval warships, the first thing is to recapture the water gate of Shuicheng. As long as we regain control of the water gate, the rebels in Pingduzhou Flood Camp will be the turtle in the urn!  To board the water gate wall of Shuicheng, you must pass through the warships on the east and west sides of the naval camp. Only the southeast side of these two locations is blocked by cannon soldiers, while the southwest side has no defensive force. These officers and soldiers can drive straight in and board the water.  The water gate city wall.  At this time, only Cheng Yousheng and more than 20 soldiers from the Guards Battalion were on the water gate wall. They had to face the menacing 500 naval officers and soldiers coming from the southwest independently.  Cheng Yousheng knew very well that if the water gate was in the hands of more than 20 people like him, the naval battalion warships would sail away through the water gate without any scruples. Once the water gate was controlled by the officers and soldiers of the Denglai Navy, Feng Jian's plan for several months would  It will be reduced to nothing, and even oneself will be trapped in the water city and it will be difficult to escape. The importance of water gate can be imagined.  Cheng Yousheng knew that the current situation had changed. The officers and soldiers were divided into two groups and attacked along the east and west walls. However, the commander and everyone did not expect that the navy officers and soldiers would be divided into two groups, so the four hundred gunmen were completely deployed on the southeast side.  On the warship, no defenses were deployed in the southwest direction.  It is very difficult to hold on to the Shuishengmen before reinforcements come, with more than 20 people around you, but Cheng Yousheng believes that the commander must have discovered this sudden crisis and will definitely come up with a solution.  He quickly ordered more than 20 brothers from the guard battalion around him to guard the water gate passage, move the rolling wooden thunder stones on the city wall to the entrance of the city gate passage, and block the position of the winch leading to the take-off and landing iron gate.  A group of more than 20 people nervously and orderly began to prepare to defend against the enemy.  At this time, Feng Jian also found naval officers and soldiers swarming in from the east and west gates of Shuicheng.  Through the telescope, I found that the front line of the naval officers and soldiers coming from the southeast were a few people on horseback. I took a moment to distinguish them.  Then I knew that the man in the middle wearing the uniform of a fourth-grade civil servant was Wang Hui of Dengzhou Haiphong Road. He came to Shuicheng to collect supplies last time.  I met this Haiphong Dao once.  Riding on the left side of his body was the Denglai Navy Yingtang garrison, and on his right side were several coastal defense officials and several of Wang Hui's personal guards.  Feng Jian could even clearly see the angry face of Lord Wang Hui of Haiphong Road. He looked like he was raising an army to punish the enemy. Behind him, Tang Shou and the officials in Shuicheng had expressions of gloating on his misfortune.  "These people looked so unscrupulous, it seemed that it was natural for them to kill Feng Jian's side, while Feng Jian's side could only wait for them to kill them and could not fight back at all!  The corners of Feng Jian's mouth turned up slightly. A group of people who don't know the heights of the world should give them a show!  They really wanted to rush into the range of the cannon soldiers.  The gun soldiers will show no mercy at all.  Of course, he can also use the artillery on the warship to directly bombard the navy officers and soldiers on the opposite side, but the place where the artillery bombards is where the families of the navy officers and soldiers live.  In order to stop the navy officers and soldiers and hurt innocent people, Feng Jian would naturally not do such a thing.  Because Feng Jian has considerable confidence in the Zhenshan Camp Bird Gun Soldiers. With their presence, they are enough to repel these 500 naval officers and soldiers!  Turning the telescope to observe the group of officers and soldiers rushing towards the naval camp from the southwest, walking at the front of the queue was a commander of the naval camp, and Feng Jian was impressed by him.  Through observation, he certainly knew what the purpose of this group of officers and soldiers on the southwest side was, and he knew even more clearly that once this group of officers and soldiers were allowed to board the water gate wall.  What will be the consequences of occupying Shuisheng Gate in Shuicheng?  But now there is no one available at all, and it is too late to mobilize gunners to the southwest for defense.  "But there was no panic on Feng Jian's face, so he put down the binoculars.  Huang Jinjiang said to the side: "Omi, please inform the artillerymen on the warship and ask them to activate the Folan cannon on the west side of the ship. Aim at the path that the invading officers and soldiers must pass through on the southwest side, and conduct artillery bombardment. Warn them.  Don't try to control the Shuishengmen of Shuicheng. "At this time, the people in Dengzhou City seemed to be shouting and neighing more urgently. It was obvious that Kong Youde and other rebel leaders had discovered the abnormality in Shuicheng.  Shuicheng and the warships and supplies in Shuicheng are equally important to them. They will definitely step up their fight for control of Dengzhou City and then invade Shuicheng. There are not many practitioners left for Feng Jian!  Feng Jian knew that when Kong Youde and other rebels were desperate, they escaped with the captured Denglai Navy warship and surrendered Houjin in Dadonggou, adding a strong fighting force to Houjin!  Now that he has his own existence, Kong Youde's move may be in vain.  Putting down his telescope, Feng Jian scanned the vast ice surface of the naval camp. At this time, more than two-thirds of the entire ice surface had been exploded by gunpowder charges. Twenty gunners on the ice methodically lit the fuses of the gunpowder packs.  , and then quickly took a small boat to get away quickly.?The location of the explosive charge.  With the sound of dozens of "booms", a large area of ??the ice surface was exploded again, which was very close to the Aquatic Gate. Visually, it only took one or two more blasts to penetrate the entire ice surface.  The warships on the pier have weighed anchor and slowly moved their hulls in accordance with the pre-arranged sequence of actions.  Seeing the thick smoke rising from where the warships were moored, Wang Hui finally figured out why there were continuous roars in the naval city. It turned out that the garrison of the Pingdu Prefecture Flood Camp and his men were using gunpowder to blast open the ice.  , trying to take advantage of the arrival of the rebels and hijack the navy warship.  Seeing this situation, Wang Hui's thoughts became aroused. He was originally worried that he would have nowhere to escape once Shuicheng was captured by Kong Youde's rebels. Now, all the warships in the naval battalion were unexpectedly able to sail away from Shuicheng.  If he leads all the naval warships to sail away from Dengzhou Water City and avoid being captured by Kong Youde's rebels, not only will this be blameless, but he will even gain the favor of the emperor and the court because he has saved this huge naval fleet for the court.  reward!  Wang Hui stared at the naval warship in the distance, his face changed from the initial panic, and his eyes began to sparkle.  Wang Hui knew the origin of the Pingdu Prefecture Flood Camp garrison. It turned out that the garrison, who was a bandit, had long planned these naval warships, and the timing was very good, just in time to seize the moment when Kong Youde's rebels captured Dengzhou City.  .  He couldn't help but cursed: "Bandits are bandits. Even if they surrender to the imperial court, they can't change their nature." Then he ordered: "Tang Shoubei, don't worry about these bandits for now. Take people to control Shuishengmen immediately! Let these group  The bandit stopped thinking. " Tang Shou and several civil and military officials beside Wang Hui saw the situation in front of them.  The fear and fear that they had just disappeared suddenly disappeared, and everyone was beaming with joy.  Tang Shoubei secretly made plans.  The other side only has more than 500 naval officers and soldiers, and a few months ago, these officers and soldiers were still under the jurisdiction of the Dengzhou Navy.  In his eyes, it should be easy to recapture the warship from the bandit with his unshakable nature and his accomplices. With the command of Lord Haiphong Daowang, those naval officers and soldiers in the past would definitely surrender, leaving the empty shell behind.  If you are on guard, you are not allowed to be ravaged by others!  Tang Guard flipped his horse's head and shouted to the navy officers and soldiers behind him: "Listen up, all soldiers. The Pingdu Prefecture Flood Camp garrison and his soldiers are trying to take advantage of the chaos to seize our naval warship. This Pingdu Prefecture Flood Camp garrison is trying to seize our naval warship."  It turned out that he was a bandit. Now the Lord of Haiphong has ordered that the navy officers and soldiers should first control the Shuishengmen and then kill the thieves who took advantage of the situation. " Seeing the eagerness of the navy officers and soldiers, Tang Shoubei shouted: "  Beat the drum! Charge!" Under the leadership of a commander, the navy officers and soldiers each held their weapons and charged towards the Shuisheng Gate of Shuicheng with the sound of drums and trumpets.  At the same time, the drum beat sounded in the queue of naval officers and soldiers on the southwest side, and the naval officers and soldiers, led by a commander, accelerated towards the Shuisheng Gate.  The two navy officers and soldiers formed a joint attack and prepared to attack the Shuisheng Gate.  Tang Shoubei and a group of Shuicheng civil and military officials stayed in place to accompany Lord Haiphong to watch the battle. He raised the telescope in his hand to observe the warships in the distance. The telescope was of little use to him.  Having Tang Shoubei with him was just for show.  Using a telescope to observe each other is originally an unintentional act, through the telescope.  Tang Shoubei suddenly discovered that there were rows of soldiers standing neatly on the side of the ship's side of two lucky ships, holding blunderbuss in their hands.  The muskets in their hands were already in firing state, and the targets were naturally their navy officers and soldiers.  There are approximately more than 400 gunmen in these groups.  It should be the private soldier guarding the flood camp in Pingdu Prefecture who was born as a bandit.  Tang Guard felt something was not good. The place where the navy officers and soldiers passed by on the southeast side happened to pass by the range where the bird cannons were fired. Once the bird cannons were fired, the navy officers and soldiers would surely suffer!  The telescope turned slightly and suddenly found that several Franco machine guns on the other side of the ship had taken off their gun jackets. The muzzles were facing the naval officers and soldiers in the southwest, and several artillerymen were loading ammunition into the muzzles.  Seeing this scene, Tang Shou Bei trembled all over. It seemed that the garrison officer of the Pingdu Prefecture Flood Camp was fully prepared. The officers and soldiers of the Denglai Navy were afraid that they would have to pay a heavy price if they wanted to successfully seize the Shuisheng Gate of Shuicheng.  .  At this moment, he suddenly remembered that the three naval commanders Niu Liang, Zhan Yuan, and Lan Zhengji and their nearly a thousand officers and soldiers were still in the naval camp at this time, but why was there no movement at all?  The three of them delayed going to Shuicheng Zhenyang Gate. Could it be that they were colluding with Feng Shoubei and planning to seize the navy ship together?  As soon as this thought appeared, I was shocked.  With trembling hands, Tang Shoubei moved the telescope towards the warship commanded by Niu Liang, the three generals. After a closer look, he was shocked to find that the three generals were standing at the bow of the warship, seemingly waiting for the order to set sail.  Tang Shoubei was completely stunned. It turned out that these three people had long been withThe two sides colluded together and prepared to seize the navy ships.  Wang Hui has now returned to his dignified demeanor, because he feels that he can escape openly without being held accountable, and on the contrary, he will be rewarded.  "I will soon be able to leave this war-torn place on a naval warship. Kong Youde's rebels can no longer threaten me, so I am in a good mood."  He was convinced that this opportunity was sent to him by the God he believed in. He could not help but pray secretly in his heart and devoutly offer his faith to God.  After praying secretly, he saw Tang Shoubei holding a telescope to observe the other party, and asked with a kind expression: "Tang Shoubei, what happened to the bandit leader when he saw the arrival of my naval officers and soldiers? Did he jump over the wall in a hurry?" Tang Shoubei said  With trembling hands, he handed the telescope to Wang Hui and said tremblingly: "My lord, please watch it yourself."  !  (To be continued)
