The commander of the British army, Lieutenant General Ewan McGregor, despaired, "What weapons did they use?" I can't see their cannons at all! Did they invent a cannon that could be fired in the trenches? A cannon that can be carried around? ”

The officers nodded and said, "General, it must be like this, what should I do?" ”

The sky was full of swishing fire. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is not a cannon, but it is not lower than the power of a cannon at all, and the black fire at this time is not good.

Ironclad ships have to rely on solid armor-piercing shells, which have not yet reached the level of howitzers in later generations.

But President Meng's grenadier is a smokeless fire and poison bomb!

Kill people!

The British camp was in chaos, and many people were coughing, clutching their throats, rolling their eyes, and falling to the ground, unable to look directly at them.

Most of them suffocated to death, and a few of them collapsed themselves with guns.

It's so uncomfortable.

The commander of the British army, Lieutenant General Ewan MacGregor, wants to cry without tears, what else can he do? It was supposed to be an advantageous situation!

Although the Chinese army and the common people resisted very actively, the British coalition army did not attack actively, but just wanted to create a strong international public opinion of the British army under the overall advantage, recover face, and by the way wait for the arrival of the Qing army, let the Chinese fight the Chinese themselves, let the Chinese army and the Qing army have another large-scale exchange of fire, so that they can recover Hong Kong and get more benefits.

The British have always been very good at settling accounts, and this calculation is also very reasonable, but they seem to have underestimated the shamelessness of the Qing court, and the Qing court also thought so.

The British army, who was living in a sneak attack from time to time, was very uncomfortable, and expanding the scope of defense was a way, but in the vast land of Guangdong, how far can you expand the scope of defense?

The troops are scattered, and the Chinese army will be broken individually!

The 1st Field Division of the Chinese Army is now no less combatant than the armies of the great powers, and its courage is even more than that, even the British battalion dares to defend it, let alone you divide the troops.

So far, the British army has not occupied a single city in Guangdong, and has been dragged to death by the Chinese army on the outskirts of Guangzhou, and the pressure on Guangdong is actually not great.

The commander of the British army, Lieutenant General Ewan MacGregor, was not a fool, he knew that he could not wait for the Qing army to come.

The green battalions of Guangxi, Fujian, and Zhejiang, which were organized by Ruilin, had already been assembled, and even if the Huai army could not come, it was still a very large army.

If this army is pulled up and cooperates with the Qing army to fight, it will be difficult for the Chinese army to handle, in fact, the Qing army will never fight like this when it is alone against the Chinese army, and the Qing army's internal war is still very set.

Ruilin is waiting, this is also the attitude of the Qing court, the more tragic the British army and the Chinese army can kill, the happier the Qing court will be, it is better if the two families are exhausted.

If the British coalition army had broken through Guangzhou and won a big victory, the Qing army would have come out long ago, and now I heard that the British army had returned to the situation of stalemate with the Chinese army, where would Ruilin dare to come to die?

Even if he doesn't send him to death and loses more troops, Ruilin is unwilling, in the first Guangdong Campaign, Ruilin lost more than 50,000 green battalion soldiers, and has been reprimanded by the Qing court, this is because the Chinese army is indeed too strong, and the British army has also suffered heavy losses, plus Ruilin's connections in the DPRK are really awesome, so he is exempt from punishment.

This time, Lord Ruilin, he must have learned to be obedient.

Where do you dare to run into Guangdong so easily?

In fact, there is a gap in northern Guangdong, and Ruilin can be stationed wherever he wants, so he simply stops at the junction of Guangdong and Guangxi, basking in the sun all day long.

The commander of the British army, Vice Admiral Ewan McGregor, had to change his tactics, withdrew from the periphery of Guangzhou, and relied on the strong warships stationed in the Pearl River, re-lowering his mentality.

The grenadier can only be regarded as a miracle move, and it is okay to suddenly taste the sweetness, and in the long run, it is not an invincible crushing type of killing weapon.

However, the First Field Division of the Chinese Army accelerated the speed of armed swimming from Hong Kong to Guangdong, and within a month, more than 20,000 people of the First Field Division of the Chinese Army completed the transfer to Guangdong!

President Meng is still in Hong Kong, and the president doesn't have to go too far ahead.

The war was fought from spring to summer!

For more than four months, although there were not many fierce battles, more than 20,000 British troops were killed or wounded.

Although the First Field Division of the Chinese Army did not suffer many casualties, the casualties of the First Guangdong Garrison Division, the Guangdong Second Garrison Division, and the Hong Kong Garrison Division were particularly heavy.

The Chinese army died a total of more than 70,000 people, and this is still the strength of the troops, and this number alone is eight to one compared to the British army!

Not counting the common people, the total number of deaths of ordinary people exceeds 280,000!

In just over four months, more than 360,000 people died in China, an unprecedented disaster, and in such a tragic situation, the British expanded the war.

Hong Kong was so important to Britain's strategic position in the Far East that the British government finally decided to expand the scale of the war and increase the number of troops in an all-round way, sending 50,000 regular troops to Britain alone!

The British army also recruited the three armies from India, commanded by British officers, to form a mixed army of 100,000 people, these two numbers alone, that is, 150,000, plus the remaining 7,000 people in the hands of the British commander-in-chief, Lieutenant General Ewan MacGregor, the total is close to 160,000!

The 160,000 British Army and more than 150 warships of all sizes blockaded the Pearl River Estuary and Princess Katrina Caft Harbor, and the Chinese army and the Chinese country could be destroyed at any time.

Although President Meng didn't say it, he was terrified in his heart, he really regretted it, the sneak attack on Hong Kong was just a momentary refreshment, from now on, it is indeed a bold and stupid move.

The grenadier could not save the Chinese army from a total decline, and it was not a slogan that could drive the British army away, nor was it President Meng's fierce speech that could drive the British army away.

President Meng ordered that all the construction corps of Hong Kong should form a guerrilla force, swim across the river with cold weapons without weapons, and go to Guangdong to support the operations of the First Guangdong Garrison Division, the Second Guangdong Garrison Division and the First Field Division of the Chinese Army.

In Hong Kong, only the Hong Kong Garrison Division remained, and there was an artillery brigade with no shells, but the artillery brigade was equipped with a lot of grenadiers and a large number of female soldiers who were replenished.

These female soldiers were all selected from the Construction Corps, and there were a large number of female soldiers in the Construction Corps, and these female soldiers followed the large army of the Construction Corps and crossed the sea to Guangdong.

On the surface, the number of the Chinese army has not decreased, with the construction corps all joined the army, it suddenly reached more than 500,000, but they have no systematic training, no weapons, little combat experience, and a large number of female soldiers, behind this complete system, what is it?
