There is also a ray of setting sun, and there is also bloody smoke.

The overall situation has been decided by the Weishui River.

And extending from the Wei River and following the rolling Yellow River water, reaching the end of the Yellow River, the vast Bohai Sea is still difficult to distinguish.

Since its establishment, the Denglai Navy has gathered the last essence of the Ming Navy.

In fact, in order to make arrangements for the navy and Liaodong, Li Xiu even allocated hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to establish a large shipyard and a large-scale ordnance factory in Dengzhou.

Specially provide warships and firearms for the Denlai Navy and Shanhaiguan.

With such great support, the Denglai Navy has been established and has achieved glorious results since its establishment.

Although there have not been much military achievements in recovering lost territory, the restraint of the Later Jin and Liao Town is not bad.

The existence of the Denglai Navy, while holding the throat of Dongjiang's fate, was like a sharp sword, threatening the safety of the heartlands of Liao Town and the Later Jin Dynasty at all times.

Although the Denglai Navy Division has been transferred to this long-planned war in Liaodong, its role in this war is still quite large.

Under the restraint of Denglai and Dongjiang, Bele Dorgon of the Later Jin led the rebuilt two white flags to take over the Later Jin Dynasty and acted as the firefighting team. The Guanning Iron Cavalry was even led by the nose and ran around.

But as far as the current situation in Liaodong is concerned, although the Denglai Navy has restrained a considerable number of troops from the Later Jin Dynasty in Liao Town, it is difficult to have a decisive impact on the overall situation of the battle.

The ultimate reason for this phenomenon is naturally because the Mongolian Iron Cavalry did not work hard. Although the Jizhen military campaign in the desert temporarily suppressed the Mongolian troops' ambitions and allowed the Mongolian Iron Cavalry to drink the Liao River again, the war lasted for nearly a month, and there was still heavy thunder and little rain on the banks of the Liao River.

Obviously, although the Mongolian evil wolf has not completely escaped control, the evil wolf has already had its own ideas in front of the Ming Dynasty, where internal and external troubles have erupted.

As for North Korea, although it also sent troops, but in the battle of the Later Jin invasion, North Korea suffered heavy losses and was greatly damaged. Although it has sent troops now, at most it is just a fight and powerless!

Mongolia did not work hard, and could not achieve restraining effect. With just two battles, the Liao Town of the Later Jin Dynasty naturally had enough strength to deal with the Denglai Dongjiang. In this way, it was inevitable that the power of the navy would be too great to achieve great results.

Although it is difficult to achieve great results when climbing Lai Dongjiang, the small sampans in Liao Town in the Later Jin Dynasty had no choice but to climb Lai Dongjiang. It can be said that they were innate and invincible.

Of course, no matter what, the landing of the Dongjiang River in Lai and even North Korea was just a partial battle in this battle. What really determines the direction of the war was Shanhaiguan, known as the world's number one pass.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Since the Shanhaiguan War began, the roar of the sky has never stopped.

The two armies faced each other, one attacked and one defended, and a total of hundreds of red-clothed cannons representing the peak of firearms in this era were bombarding each other at Shanhaiguan.

It is hard to imagine that in the past, even the most basic cold weapons, could not be produced on a large scale by the Later Jin Dynasty. Now, under this Shanhaiguan, an unprecedented artillery battle with the Ming Dynasty has begun!

Li Xiu was naturally extremely attentive to defend Shanhaiguan. Since Shanhaiguan took control, Li Xiu also mobilized a large number of artillery and weapons to transport them to Shanhaiguan.

Later, Dengzhou Ordnance Field was established, and the firearms produced were continuously supplied to Shanhaiguan.

To this day, not to mention all kinds of small cannons, just imitating and improving red-clothed cannons, nearly two hundred gates have been arranged on Shanhaiguan City!

You know, even if Nurhaci returned to Ningyuan City without success, there were only more than twenty red cannons. In the Ningyuan victory, the red cannons should be the first to be the winner!

According to normal historical development of the Later Jin Dynasty, war artifacts such as the Red Cannon must be established until the Dengzhou mutiny, and when Huang Taiji enters the pass to plunder the Ming Dynasty's wealth as support, they will begin to possess them, and war artifacts such as the Red Cannon become magical tools for the Later Jin Dynasty to conquer cities and territory.

In this era, the Later Jin Dynasty entered the pass and plundered, and eventually ended up being wiped out. As for the Dengzhou mutiny, in this time and space, Mao Wenlong was not dead, and the leader of the Dengzhou mutiny was still fighting for the Ming Dynasty, so naturally it would not be possible to appear again.

But the rebellion of Liaozhen undoubtedly completely filled these defects of the Later Jin Dynasty.

The rebellion of Liaozhen brought the greatest help to the Later Jin Dynasty, which was never land and troops, but the foundation of the farming nation.

Farming, craftsmen, culture...

Liao Town is like a bottom-level cornerstone, perfectly filled in the Later Jin Dynasty like a castle in the sky.

As a result, although the strategic situation of the Later Jin Dynasty became increasingly worse, the foundation of the Later Jin Dynasty was completely stable.

Outside this Shanhaiguan, nearly a hundred red-clothed cannons lined up in the Later Jin army formation are the perfect embodiment of this foundation!

The war has continued to this day, and all fortifications outside Shanhaiguan have been completely broken. At this day, the form of war has completely evolved into a battle of siege.

However, even though he had nearly a hundred red-clothed cannons as his reliance, the world's first level still made Dai Shan and Yuan Chonghuan feel discouraged.

In the battle of siege, artillery destroys the siege and female walls, destroys the firepower points of the defenders, and then suppresses the defenders with muskets, bows and siege equipment. Finally, the elite troops first climb the city quickly, and use points to lead the surface to seize control of the city wall.

This has always been the case with siege battles. However, this set, when used on Shanhaiguan, has a very slight effect.

In terms of firearms, the Ming defenders of Shanhaiguan and the surging firepower completely suppressed the Later Jin Dynasty. Even the firearms developed by the whole country were repeatedly suppressed under Shanhaiguan.

When the firearms are suppressed, the siege equipment is often destroyed by the red-clothed cannon before it reaches the city wall. The siege equipment is repeatedly destroyed ruthlessly. It is undoubtedly extremely difficult to attack Shanhaiguan, the world's top pass.

The war lasted for nearly a month. In the Liao Town of Later Jin, the number of times it really attacked the Shanhaiguan Tower was counted with only one hand, but every time it was ruthlessly defeated by the defenders.

There is no doubt that in the absence of suppressing the firepower of the Shanhaiguan Guard, the Shanhaiguan Guard took advantage of the unrestrained firepower of the Qianguan Pass to make the long-planned Shanhaiguan Battle in the Liao Town of Later Jin Dynasty fall into a desperate tug-of-war.

...

On the south side of Weihai City, Shanhaiguan, above the vast Bohai Sea, warships hanging high with sun and moon flags are lined up, and cannons in the cabin have already aimed at the coastline.

Above the flagship, Lu Xiangsheng held a telescope and observed the battle situation in Shanhaiguan.

It took him a long time to put down his telescope, and there was a hint of helplessness between his eyebrows.

He led the navy to this point, so naturally it was not bored to watch the battle. Shanhaiguan was surrounded by mountains and seas, and his navy was swimming on the Bohai Sea, which was enough to ensure the safety of half of Shanhaiguan.

Just like the Ninghai City, Weihai City, and even the Nanyi City where Shanhaiguan is close to the Bohai Sea, as long as the Later Jin dares to attack any city wall within the range of these three city cities, it will not only need to face the counterattack of the Shanhaiguan defenders, but also within the range of his navy cannons.

Under such a deterrence, although the Shanhaiguan war has been fighting for nearly a month, the war has always been limited to the side of Shanhaiguan backing the mountain, and the small half of Shanhaiguan beside the water is also extremely peaceful.

Peace comes from peace, but for Lu Xiangsheng, it is naturally extremely boring.

The navy floated on the sea day and night, and the Shanhaiguan was fighting on the shore, but he had not shot at all. Judging from the evolution of the battle situation, he probably really wanted to be a spectator.

"It would be great if the artillery range could cover the entire Shanhaiguan!"

Looking at the hundreds of artillery guns, Lu Xiangsheng was also a little moved.

If the range of artillery can really cover the entire Shanhaiguan, then Lu Xiangsheng can guarantee that Hou Jin will never get close to Shanhaiguan in his life.

Moreover, the long Liaodong Corridor and most of the important towns are bordered by the Bohai Sea. The Navy of Denglai was able to easily disrupt the entire Liaodong Corridor and make it difficult for the rest of the world!

"When the battle ends, I have to go to the ordnance factory to take a look..."

He muttered in his heart, and Lu Xiangsheng also put down the telescope in his hand.

As the situation has evolved so far, in his opinion, the possibility of Shanhaiguan being captured by the Liao Town of Later Jin has been very slim.

The method of using troops is to surround him ten times, attack him five times, and fight him twice.

Now there are nearly 50,000 troops in the Shanhaiguan Guard alone. Although the Jin and Liaozhen coalition forces, although they are known as 300,000 troops, under the restraint of the Denglai Navy, Dongjiang, North Korea and others, the total number of people who have bluffed is only 150,000 or 60,000, not to mention ten times, five times has not been achieved.

Not to mention, Shanhaiguan is so powerful, with strong troops, sufficient food and grass, sharp weapons, and his deterrence from the Denglai Navy.

The only hidden worries are the internal worries after Shanhaiguan. However, since the outbreak of the Shanhaiguan War, 20,000 troops in Jizhen have been stationed behind Shanhaiguan, intimidating all those who are ready to move.

If internal worries break out, you have to face the 20,000 troops in Jizhen first, otherwise everything will be empty talk.

Up to now, what Lu Xiangsheng wants to know is how Dai Shan and Yuan Chonghuan will make a decision in the face of this dilemma.

Should we continue to take all our gambles or change our strategy?
