C1322 bitter fruit of underestimating

Their wrathful howls did not frighten the Chinese soldiers, nor did the cries of the wounded make the Chinese softhearted. The snipers who were ambushing the Chinese remained silent. The sneers at the corner of their mouths showed that they were too lazy to waste their breath on these invaders.

Who could answer Nicholas's question? Only the cannon! At this moment, the artillery position in the village of Sisi was going crazy. Every time the artillery commander fired, he would excitedly charge onto the battlefield to show off his might. He pointed his middle finger at the enemy and the battleship in the bay, cursing loudly.

"Boom!" Continue bombing! Kill these f * cking invaders... This is our Chinese land, it's not like I invited you here! This massacre must be remembered by this group of Russian for a hundred years! "

There was not a single house in the entire village that was not in a good condition. If it was not destroyed by the explosion, it would be ignited. Under the firelight, the Russian's people moved about, and the soldiers who were ignited jumped into the ocean screaming. The troop carrier s who were fighting for stalls in the distance rushed forward, risking the danger of running aground, wanting to save the army.

"Get on board! Grab the rope ladder... "Grab the rope …" Countless ropes and thick ropes were thrown down from both sides of the troop carrier, creating a splash on the surface of the water.

At the moment, the harbor was in chaos, the bridge had already been destroyed, and the beach was surrounded by miscellaneous objects and corpses. troop carrier could not find a suitable position to anchor, and they could not even get close to the shore smoothly.

Right now, the soldiers could only rely on themselves to swim to the side of the troop carrier and climb up the rope ladders. Such a withdrawal efficiency was extremely low and if they wanted to leave, they would need at least eight hours.

The eyes of the branch fleet He Mansiji were blazing with fire, "It can't be like this! We can't let the Chinese go on bombing so brazenly... They were going to be completely wiped out! We'll be trapped to death... "

The hell-like scene in front of his eyes rotated. The corpses floating in the waves crashed into the warship, and the mentally weak recruits were lying prone on the side of the ship as they vomited.

The distant artillery positions were still flooded with rage, the three consecutive counter-attacks organized by the Russian Army were blocked by the Chinese, and He Mansiji's naval gun counterattack also had little effect because of the distance and angle.

"Damn it!" Listen to my orders... With the Svetlana at the head of the fleet, they had all the squadrons, and were sailing northwards for five hundred meters … Continue bombing enemy artillery positions! "

"What?" Everyone immediately cried out: "Captain is no good! In front of us is a shallow sea area. There are reefs everywhere, and we'll touch them … "

"Shut up!" He Mansiji shouted loudly, "Don't tell me I didn't know that it was the shallow sea area in front of us? Do you think I'm blind? "But what can we do now? Our battleships are the closest to the enemy's artillery position, if we can't suppress them, then all twenty thousand brothers of the army will die here …"

"In this moment of life and death, if our death can be exchanged for the lives of twenty thousand brothers, then death won't matter! Do you really think you came to East Asia for a tour? Do you really think that you are here to enjoy life? "

He Mansiji's scolding caused all the soldiers to shut up, and this sentence immediately understood the thoughts and plans of many of the officers and soldiers of Expeditionary forces. In fact, this eye-catching expedition was just a long vacation in the eyes of many soldiers and soldiers. In their hearts, the people of Central Asia were weak, and the Chinese people, who had to compensate for their lost land, were weak.

The strong Russia army, as long as they could show off their muscles in front of these sheep, they would be scared to the point of peeing their pants. They would be able to extort the most delicious food, the most beautiful women, and the most wealth from them.

In the war against the Western Civilization, the Qing Government suffered defeat after defeat until there was no chance of redemption. Now, the fear of the foreign invaders had appeared in Qing Dynasty and the contempt the westerner had for the Chinese had replaced the admiration of the Middle Ages.

China is no longer an ancient civilization and a powerful symbol. Although China is still rich, this wealth has become undefended fat. As long as European countries have strong industrial skills and can mobilize fleets for an Asian expedition, you can cut off the fattest piece at will.

Xiao Letian once said that in the 19th century, and even the first half of the 20th century, the Western Civilization was unable to eat China. It's not that they did not have that kind of ambition, but the level of technology at that time was still very low.

Britain, France, Russia, these are the only three countries that can do this... The United States had this kind of industrial strength, of course, but the United States was currently in a period of economic recovery, and the post-Civil War peace. Developing people's livelihood was an important task for the United States, and isolationism was rampant, so the United States Navy in this era was just a defensive army.

In fact, from the beginning of the history of the late Qing, there had only been three European countries that had fought the Great Qing. One was Britain and the other was France, which were the only two industrial countries that could send heavy troops from Europe to Asia.

The First Opium War was fought down by the British themselves, the Second Opium War was fought down by the British and the French together, and then there was the Annan War between the Qing and France, and then there was the counterattack by the little neighbor of the afternoon.

It would take until 1900 for all the countries of Europe to send their ships to form the alliance and attack the Beijing, and the humans of that world had long entered the era of completely steam-powered battleships. It was only because of the huge technological developments that allowed the second rate European countries like Italy and the Austro-Hungarian Empire to have the ability to send heavy troops to the east.

It could be said that in 1869, the fact that the Russia could organize 30,000 troops to go across half of the world to invade China was an extremely exciting thing to do inside the Russia.

Spain and the Portugal did not have this ability, neither did Holland and Italy. Even the powerful Austro-Hungarian Empire and Prussia had to shake their heads in shame.

This was reality, an indisputable fact. How could Expeditionary forces who had just left the Expeditionary forces under the praise and worship of others not be arrogant? What He Mansiji said was not wrong, the soldiers never thought that they would fail, and never considered the possibility of casualties.

In their hearts, it was as if the victory of the Far East were like the ripe apples on the treetops, which could be easily plucked by tiptoeing.

Looking at those soldiers whose faces were flushed red, He Mansiji growled, "Our underestimating our enemy has made a huge mistake, so we can only use our blood to make up for this mistake … That's the situation in the battlefield. If we don't sacrifice ourselves now, who will? "

"Now listen to my orders, all the sub-fleets head north, seizing the best shooting position …" Fire the cannons and suppress the Chinese artillery soldiers on the hillside! "
