So theoretically, grenades can play a very powerful tactical role, but only theoretically, just as Li Yunlong's 3,600 pieces are just creating an opportunity to raid, and it is the brave soldiers who really establish the credit.

In fact, the data that the elders in the distance are more concerned about is how these elite troops in the Cold Weapon Age will react in the face of weapons that transcend the era.

The two sides almost passed, at least in the eyes of the Zhan Shibang, the record was remarkable.

On the books, the defenders of Nanjing numbered about 80,000 men, almost two or three times as many as those who came to attack the city, but in this era, empty pay was almost commonplace, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers was almost extremely weak, which could not be changed with a few strict orders.

Those who can drink this soup are either several nobles who have been in Nanjing for generations, and at the same time, there are officials of all sizes, and if they want their income to be finished, they will let you finish.

This is very helpless, but it is also a reality, there is really the kind of person who insists on reform even if the whole family dies, and it will be completely wiped out once or twice.

Of course, those family members, in order to suppress the soldiers and oppress the people, can still make up hundreds of people, in fact, the reason why Li Dingguo was caught off guard is that in addition to the grenades are really sharp, those family members do dare to fight compared to ordinary soldiers.

But that's how they work, and the number of them is small, and once the effectiveness of the grenade is known, the real threat it poses is no longer enough.

What's really good in that way? A grenade is thrown at it, and the enemies who have gathered together scatter in fright, while the attacking side waits at any time, rushes over immediately after the explosion, and shoots directly while the enemy is still dodging the fragmentation blows.

There are many reasons, first of all, as grenadiers, those family members are not qualified, and the reason why they were sent over is that they are the only people in the entire city of Nanjing who dare to go out, and they are already generals in the city, and they have problems with their arm strength and accuracy, and secondly, there are too many dirt roads and earthen walls in Nanjing.

Different from the direct killing of bullets and fragments in film and television dramas, according to the US military's killing records in Iraq, there are as many people who are killed directly as they are killed by bouncing blades.

The difference between dirt and concrete roads is that the smooth surface of cement is likely to bounce back, causing more scurrying damage, while dirt can often absorb damage.

Of course, Li Dingguo's method is not very good, his own physical strength is consumed in the process of water transportation, and it is a taboo for soldiers to go into battle without trimming after getting off the ship, especially in this place on the shore, if it is not for the capture of enough food, and the captured merchants can order them to cook as auxiliaries, then it will almost be a mess.

This stalemate will not be delayed for too long, after all, Li Dingguo led a hundred elite soldiers, and in the city of Nanjing, except for those hundreds of soldiers, most of the so-called garrisons are basically carpenters who are skilled in swordsmanship, and they are more accustomed to carrying cannonballs than sacks, not to mention, a small number of soldiers who bought military registrations in order to evade national taxes, and even the military uniforms were directly embezzled by the commander.

Zhan Shibang naturally paid attention to it, in his opinion, Li Dingguo's side must be driven away, but it seems that he will not get any reward for being easily driven away.

Just as the legend says that a river separates two counties, the county magistrate of one county is far-sighted and repairs the embankment in advance, and when the flood comes, the county is safe and sound, but the other county is negligent, but when the flood comes, the county official of the negligent county is charging ahead and blocking the embankment, and under such "merit", he can be directly promoted!

In the same way, if the elders work hard to drive Li Dingguo's people away as soon as possible, then all kinds of foul language will inevitably come, which is nothing more than a fight between two thieves.

Only when people are rescued from the line of death is kindness.

Of course, any elder must take a closer look at the balance of this.

In the morning, Zhan Shibang woke up from the warm embrace of the beauty around her, felt the abnormal movement, and woke up, this night, this beauty served Zhan Shibang satisfied, and she never slept peacefully, and the occasional sound in the distance made her unable to rest.

However, when I got up early, I felt that the Zhan Shi Gang woke up, or I barely cheered up and served the Zhan Shi Gang to dress, the Zhan Shi Gang was in a very happy mood at this time, 150,000 taels of silver is definitely a sky-high price that Nanjing can't afford, or if you dare to give, then there will inevitably be a financial crisis, or it will mobilize the rich to donate money, but the inevitable choice of those rich people must be to find a way to pass it on to the people, causing huge problems.

And his act of cutting the flesh is not over, next, if the gentry of Nanjing do not want to be destroyed and slaughtered, they have to be slaughtered with such a knife, this is a bloody knife.

Although the elders who took down the gold-rich mines in Australia have opened up a way to go to Japan to make silver, for the elders, they definitely do not lack reserves of precious metals, in fact, at this time, the gold reserves of the elders have exceeded 100 tons, which can be said to be the world's largest reserves!

However, this is a real pumping, once it succeeds, Nanjing's financial power will basically fall on the elders, which is definitely the greatest merit, a big long face.

Of course, no one doubted from the beginning to the end that anyone would dare not pay the presbyterian council.

Out of the cabin, the little brother brought with him also had their own arrangements, at this time energetic began to work, the river was quiet, but almost no one dared to come forward to be verbose, although the old bustard was also worried about the soldiers outside the city, but also anxious, listen to what she said, the water gate of Nanjing City has been closed, and it is almost impossible to drive a boat out of the city.

Zhan Shibang nodded, in the case of not knowing the specific situation, closing the city gate is what the classical empire will inevitably do, exactly, people in the city want to go out, and people outside the city want to go in.

However, this situation cannot continue, not to mention anything else, Nanjing, with a population of one million, can obtain food every day in the granary of the city, but all kinds of firewood and vegetables, etc., and other uses, depend on this, and as a commercial hub city in the south of the Yangtze River, a long-term siege means that the long-term unemployment population has skyrocketed.

It can be said that in the distribution of the empire, in the era of Zhu Di, the imperial capital meant that the Son of Heaven guarded the country, and Nanjing meant the central area where military salaries and food were sent to the imperial capital, but in the middle and late periods, the emperor's power system had completely collapsed, and the nobles who could have checked and balanced the civil officials had long since withered, and the civil officials who had been officials for generations had become the counter-force in it, and it was almost normal to stifle the administration, so it made Nanjing do less and less in this regard.

The flower boat is moving slowly in the water, which can be regarded as enjoying the landscape, and there is a reason for stopping here, the military observers of the imperial capital are on the various fronts of the "consultants", and once there is a situation, they will send signal flares to the Zhan Shi Gang, red means that the city is broken, and yellow means that the grenades are about to run out......

There was also a flower boat in the distance, which seemed to be slowly approaching the shore, and Zhan Shibang looked over, and it seemed that the people on the boat knew the people on the shore, and they were waving their hands and saying something.

Zhan Shibang used breakfast, Jiangnan desserts did not like sugar and chocolate as much as later generations, but preferred honey and maltose, and the taste was much lighter than that of later generations.

After the boat in the distance docked, it picked up the people on the shore, but it began to go downstream, and when it approached, the owners of the two boats chatted, and they met and passed by, but they chatted very well.

Zhan Shibang asked a few words casually, but it was the two literati who were gathering at this time, and they were about to break the city and still care about playing with women, although they didn't understand poetry, but Zhan Shibang still scolded in his stomach, "The merchant girl doesn't know the hatred of the country, and she still sings the backyard flowers across the river", but thinking of the changes in this poem to later generations, it is a spoof laugh, so I don't care who is on the boat.

After Zhan Shi helped his own people is teasing the women around him, he began to plan how the following work would be carried out, the Confucian students in the imperial capital are not muddy, and Li Dingguo is like a wolf and a tiger, people are independent people with their own thoughts, how can they act according to your script.

In the history of world politics and economy, there are also a small number of giant babies who rely on factors that are by no means their own ability to climb to a high position, but generally people can't help but laugh and have to smile bitterly, the reason is that the logical chain of these people is often, how I want to be, and then how you are, I can get how benefits.

But many times, such plans are utopian, such as...... In many cases, they can only scold angrily, and then have to endure the exploitation of Chinese profiteers and work hard.

So the elders are still very careful.

But for giant babies, it's more than that.

The reason why the elders are so big is that after decades of struggle, the emperor who dared to endanger the interests of the civil and official groups and the literati and Confucian scholars has died mysteriously.

The death of Ming Xianzong is a beginning, Liu Wentai killed two emperors, but it is unknown in history, but it is recorded in the history books, Liu Wentai is obsessed with power, and often goes back and forth to the door of Qiu Jun, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, in order to move the official.

The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty also had a big heart to let the prisoners of labor reform treat him, and he killed the emperor by misdiagnosis three times, but he was fine three times, if there is no problem in this, it is simply it.

Ming Xiaozong had an ordinary cold and fever, but after drinking the medicine of the imperial doctor, he died of nosebleeds, Wuzong really died of doctors, and Emperor Jiajing died of pills, but it was also rumored by everyone, but Zhu Youxiao's suspicion was really unimaginable.

Since they can continue to kill the emperors who want to rectify them, then their behavior of looting the people is naturally more unscrupulous, so the IQ required does not have to be so high, and the Confucian policy of the weak and the foolish people has been fully completed, resulting in the corresponding ability of the landlords is also declining!

So what we see is that the various absurd and stupid behaviors of the landlords and gentry in the late Ming Dynasty don't have to be strange, and they are themselves a weakened version of waste firewood.

Zhang Dai is going crazy.

He got on the flower boat, but he jumped to his feet in a hurry and said, "Hou Xian, what you said, how to get out of the city, now it's time to leave quickly." ”

Hou Fangyu smiled proudly, he was very excited last night, first opened the buds of the two young girls he bought, and then he was happy, thinking that getting up early should be the grand scene of the army entering the city, but what he didn't expect was that he had not been able to break out of the city wall, and he was strange, but he saw someone scolding by the river, but he was not an acquaintance from a distance.

"Why is Uncle Shi so anxious, back then, Xie An played against people, his bearing was magnificent, and he was a big thief in his children, he was really a model for my generation, why was Shi Gong so anxious, come and come, watch me and my predecessors ask for advice or two, by the way, you come to see my document, and by the way, help me correct one or two."

Zhang Dai sighed helplessly.

Originally, he was going to Nanjing to criticize all kinds of perverse behaviors in the imperial capital, whether it was burning dead chickens in the chicken farm, or treating scholars poorly, in Zhang Dai's view, it could be compared with the king of Zhou, in his opinion, the emperor must be elected immediately, and then work together to fight against the imperial capital.

Otherwise, even the people who have been on the Cao Yun for generations have begun to move their families to the north to work hard, how can this be done!

Those traitors who don't know the grace of the Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years!

However, Zhang Dai was also shocked to hear that the imperial capital used very cheap means to "trade in the old for the new" signboard, and with the old wooden boat, you can exchange it for a big ship that can sail on the sea, and you don't have to give money, you can pay in installments!

And the cost is still not high, as far as the old man himself said, a trip to Liaodong has earned almost the same, and now his son has repaid the hundreds of taels spent on buying the boat in advance, and it will be a net profit in the future, he went back to his hometown this time, and mobilized all his relatives to sell the things in Jiangnan and go to the north to make a living!

If the imperial capital is still the bright and prosperous of the Ming Dynasty, or it is still ruled by civil officials, Zhang Dai may praise a few words, what has come is safe, or what the system says, but the imperial capital is by no means the appearance of China's ordinary pattern regime, but a real revolution, revolutionizing the lives of their literati!

Therefore, Zhang Dai believes that it is his responsibility to pass this information back, so that all the literati in Jiangnan know about it, and everyone will unite to fight against the imperial capital!

But on the night of Nanjing, the imperial capital was actually touched, and it was a rebellion of the upstream warlords, and the imperial capital was defenseless against it!

And after Zhang Dai heard about it, he wanted to go into the camp, but at this time, where was anyone willing to listen to him.

Now I want to get out of the city, but the gate has been closed and I can't get out.

Of course, it is also understandable that once the southern gates of Nanjing City are not attacked, it will be like a big riot, and even the defenders in the city will run out.

That's all over it.

Therefore, in ancient times, when attacking a city, it was necessary to encircle three and one, and to encircle the division, and one of the eight principles of using troops to fight a war, which means emphasizing that there should be a gap when encircling the enemy.
