Chang Lin and others looked at Beichen Yuqing; the target's situation had changed, which was beyond Chang Lin's ability to handle.
Beichen Yuqing smiled confidently: "Our goal is not to kill or injure the enemy, but to deter the enemy. Therefore, continue to bombard Dongguan Town and let the living Jin soldiers see what fear is. Of course, please ask Master Feiyu to mark the location where the enemy landed just now. We will reward him with a few 305mm caliber shells. I think a few large shells will leave a deep impression on them. After destroying Dongguan Town, we will continue to go north along the coast and destroy the salt fields along the way. In addition, in view of the appearance of Yuanying stage masters, the aircraft will not be dispatched for the time being. Wait until the number and location of the opponent's Yuanying stage masters are clear, and then go out. At that time, make a detour and fly to a place where the Yuanying stage masters cannot reach and bomb."
The ironclad ships slowly approached the shore, and at the beginning, the five ironclad ships still aimed at Dongguan Town and fired at it. Because the purpose was to demonstrate, and Dongguan Town was already an empty town, they only fired two salvos instead of a blanket bombing.
But even with two salvos, the city of Dongguan was still almost destroyed. More than 70 artillery pieces fired at the same time, all 150mm, 240mm and 305mm cannons, and the effect was quite shocking. The city walls were directly blown apart, the houses were directly shattered, and the ground was overturned. The smoke billowed and covered the sky.
Especially the explosion of a 305mm shell, in the words of Master Feiyu, is almost equivalent to the power of a late Jindan stage master burning his soul and self-destructing. Such power is already quite threatening to Yuanying stage masters.
As for the soldiers of Jin State, when they saw the city of Dongguan Town being blown up, on the one hand they were grateful for the general's wise decision, but on the other hand, just as Beichen Yuqing had expected, the seeds of fear were planted!
Some soldiers even sat down on the ground because their legs went weak... Fighting with such an Anyang was simply courting death!
However, before these soldiers had time to rejoice, some of them saw that the muzzle of the ironclad ship began to turn, and the black gun barrel was facing them.
“Run!”
Someone shouted, and the frightened soldiers ran away. Although General Cheng Yunbo of the East disciplined his troops strictly, and although Cheng Yunbo had a strong will to fight and wanted to seize an ironclad ship and save his son, Jin had not been at war for a hundred years after all, and many of the new soldiers did not have much combat experience. Now they were faced with such a fierce bombing, and more than one or two of them were demoralized.
Not to mention, there were originally quite a few soldiers from Dongguan Town itself, not the elite troops led by Cheng Yunbo himself.
Now, with someone taking the lead, many soldiers fled. In the blink of an eye, countless deserters appeared all over the mountains and plains. Without the "blocking" of the city wall, the soldiers ran away happily. By the time Cheng Yunbo reacted and wanted to dispatch the supervision team, tens of thousands of soldiers had already fled.
Once tens of thousands of soldiers ran away, the remaining soldiers also lost confidence.
At this moment, just as the supervision team was preparing to take action, the five ironclad ships fired a third salvo!
The earth shook... the sky collapsed and the earth split... the sky was dark and pitch black... General Cheng Yunbo himself didn't know how to describe the violent explosion; the defenses that were temporarily built with magic and were stronger than city walls were overturned and torn apart in an instant.
