Text Chapter 1178 Don¡¯t be afraid, little father-in-law

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Zhao Hongyu didn't know that the grenade he took out to display was now noticed by Huang Taiji outside the city.

    If he knew about this, he would probably laugh at Huang Taiji.

    The production process of grenades is not that simple.

    Gunpowder alone is not something that the Manchus can handle.

    In the future, they will not be able to produce the current technology of the Jin Kingdom, even if they are given the method.

    Of course, Zhao Hongyu would not give it to them at all.

    As for Huang Taiji, he thought that this kind of weapon was made by the Ming Dynasty.

    That¡¯s why he thought that he could use money to get this new and powerful weapon from the corrupt officials of the Ming Dynasty.

    By then, the Ming army¡¯s advantage will no longer exist.

    In the future, the Kingdom of Jin can also possess this kind of weapon. Then what will Ming be afraid of?

    The next time the army comes to the capital again, it will be more fully prepared. With this kind of weapon, it may be possible to conquer the capital.

    I have to say that Huang Taiji¡¯s idea is very good, but he doesn¡¯t know that there is a big difference between the facts and his own ideas.

    The powerful weapons he saw were not made by the Ming Dynasty at all, but were brought by people from another continent.

    Thinking about it, if Huang Taiji knew the truth, he would definitely be stunned.

    But with the current knowledge of the Jurchens, even if you tell them where the American continent is, they won't have any consciousness.

    What they know is Mongolia and Liaodong, as well as the Ming Dynasty that they have some impression of.

    Regarding Goryeo, Hou Jin only learned a little about it in recent years.

    The Manchus of the Japanese Kingdom and the Later Jin Kingdom are not very familiar with them now.

    You can¡¯t blame them, after all, their knowledge is all there.

    The Manchus today have not yet completely gotten rid of their rustic ideology.

    So, the requirements for them cannot be too high¡ª¡ª

    Dividing line¡ª¡ª

    ¡°Oh my God!

    Everybody, run away quickly, no one will survive if you stay here!

    Faced with the grenade attack, the surrender army completely collapsed.

    They are flesh and blood, not the kind of steel superman.

    Although they can threaten the defenders with their bravery, they are still human in the end.

    People will be afraid, fearful, and inevitably feel pain.

    The grenade is very powerful, and its radiation area is about thirty meters.

    Those who were dropped from the top of the city and gathered under the city to climb the ladders and hold up their shields to defend their comrades from bows and arrows would definitely be injured by the exploding grenade fragments.

    Basically, every time a grenade explodes, seven or eight people will be lifted into the air.  The air wave generated by the explosion of the grenade was very large, and many surrendered soldiers around the explosion point were pushed away by the air wave and fell far away.

    Especially those who are at the center of the explosion point will be even more unlucky.

    After the grenade explodes, they will basically be blown to pieces.

    Those bloody body fragments are often stained on other people's bodies. The bloody skin and bone residues connected to the white flesh and muscles hanging on the body definitely look very scary.

    For the soldiers who had never seen this kind of power, they all thought that the Ming army at the top of the city had invited the so-called thunder god, or that someone who knew magic was using the Five Thunder Method to deal with them.

    It¡¯s not surprising to have such an idea. After all, superstition is still very popular in this era, especially in the East.

    So, it is perfectly normal for the soldiers who returned to the army to have such thoughts.

    ¡°Coupled with the scattered human limbs all over the sky, the huge fire and noise, and the ground shaking caused by the explosion, it is not surprising that the soldiers who returned to the army collapsed.

    With a shrill and desperate cry, the offensive of the surrender army came to a halt.

    Then, large numbers of surrendered soldiers began to run backwards like the ebbing tide.

    "Everyone, don't retreat! The people behind us won't let us go. If we retreat without a military order, our heads will be chopped off if we go back. Everyone will die! It's all death anyway, so it would be better for us to die at the top of the city.  To avoid bringing trouble to Shengjing¡¯s family!¡±

    Just when the surrendered soldiers were panicking and everyone started to retreat along with the crowd, a man wearing a Manchu uniform who looked likeA man who was a young general stood up and shouted at the top of his lungs.

    Yes, they will die if they retreat. The Manchus will not let them go.

    Before the attack, the corpses of those who retreated without authorization are living examples.

    The Manchus have always looked down on the Han people, so they will not show mercy to them.

    ¡°And if they withdraw, they will not be able to survive, and they will also harm Sheng Jing¡¯s family.

    The Manchu military law was harsh. Those who did not obey orders and retreated without authorization were killed. The young and old in the family were allotted to slaves wearing armor.

    You know, it was a very difficult life for those armored soldiers who were given to the Manchus as slaves in the Later Jin Dynasty.

    Slaves have no status, they are not even as good as mules and horses.

    ??It is not a crime at all for a slave to be beaten to death by his master.

    Therefore, generally Han Chinese who worked as slaves for the Manchus would be tortured to death within a few years.

    In another time and space, these are things that can be checked in history.

    And this is the same in time and space. The Manchus in the Later Jin Kingdom also treated the Han people who became slaves in this way.

    Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Later Jin Kingdom to form such a surrender army.

    You know, as long as they join the surrendered army, they are considered half Manchus. Although the real Manchus do not admit this at all, one advantage is that their family life in Shengjing is better than that of those who became  The Han people who were slaves were much better.

    ¡°At least, the Manchus will not bully them at will.

    This point is strictly required by Huang Taiji.

    After all, the Manchus still need cannon fodder like the surrender army to reduce their losses.

    "If the surrendered troops are fighting at the front, but their families are oppressed by the Manchus in Shengjing, the surrendered troops fighting outside may violently rebel.

    So, Huang Taiji must introduce some policies to reassure the soldiers who have returned to the army.

    Otherwise, how could the surrender army work for him? This is a very real problem.

    In order to better control these cannon fodder, Huang Taiji also formulated a series of harsh military laws, which were all aimed at the Han people who surrendered to the army.

    There used to be some people who did not believe in evil, but in the end they all paid the price of their lives to educate other people who are still alive.

    Manchus, that¡¯s not just a joke. If someone wants to behead their head, they won¡¯t bother you at all.

    If you resist, the entire team will be implicated.

    ¡°Even if I die, Shengjing¡¯s family members who are the hostages will also be implicated.

    It is precisely for this reason that the soldiers who surrendered to the army really sacrificed their lives for the Manchus.

    It¡¯s not that they really want to do this from the bottom of their hearts, but they have to do it for the sake of their family and their children and mother And after going through several battles, this kind of thing becomes a matter of course.

    So, when the officer shouted, all the retreating soldiers of the surrendered army stopped.

    At this time, everyone came to their senses and remembered this matter.

    "Yes, they won't survive if they run back now. Those Manchus won't let them go."

    Since there was no order or signal to retreat, they would definitely be beheaded if they went back like this.

    The Manchus won¡¯t show mercy to you at all, especially to Han soldiers like them.

    It¡¯s death to go back!

    But if you continue to attack, you will die.

    But the difference between the two methods is that if you retreat and are killed by the Manchus, your family in Shengjing will be affected.

    But if he died in the battle at the top of the city, his family in Shengjing would not have any problems.

    After all, although the Manchus looked down on the Han people, after they died in battle, the Manchus still did not dare to abuse their families.

    You must know that the surrender army needs to continue to expand, and cannon fodder must continue to be used and exist.

    "If your family cannot be protected after you die in battle, who will sacrifice their lives for the Manchus in the future?"

    This is an obvious truth. Anyone who is not an idiot will understand it.

    Therefore, the surrendered soldiers who had stopped their retreat, after thinking about this clearly, began to quickly rearrange themselves, turned around, and continued to charge up the city wall.

    At the same time, their eyes were all red, and they no longer looked like normal people.

    Yes, the soldiers of the surrendered army now know that they will not survive if they rush back.

    The Ming army alsoI don't know what means were used to deal with them with something that could kill dozens of people.

    We are all made of flesh and blood, how can we bear it?

    But for the sake of Shengjing¡¯s family, even if they die, they don¡¯t care so much¡ª¡ª

    Dividing line¡ª¡ª

    "Your Highness, the enemy has rushed back."

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUTOUT OFFICE

    "No need to tell me, I can see it from here." Zhao Hongyu waved his hand.  Then he turned to look at the still trembling eunuch Little Danzi, "Little father-in-law, can you see clearly the thunder bomb we used just now?"

    ¡° Xiaodanzi, the little eunuch, is not just following Zhao Hongyu. He is also responsible for testing the power of the weapons that Zhao Hongyu wants to sell to the emperor.

    Eunuch Xue didn¡¯t dare to climb the city, so he sent Little Danzi up to take a look on his behalf.

    Zhao Hongyu is very indifferent to this.

    "Awesome! Very awesome! After those things were thrown down, there was a shocking movement. I even felt the city wall shaking."

    The little egg¡¯s legs were trembling, and its calves were still trembling.

    However, when faced with Zhao Hongyu¡¯s inquiry, he still responded.

    "Don't be afraid, little father-in-law. As long as we are here, it is impossible for the enemy to board the city." Seeing the little boy who was so frightened that his face turned pale, Zhao Hongyu felt a little pity for him.

    ??It¡¯s a pity to be a eunuch at such a young age.

    "Your Highness, this servant has seen its power, so can you go down now?"

    After the fierce battle before, Xiaodanzi really didn¡¯t want to go through it again.

    He really couldn't accept that bloody scene.

    So, he resisted the urge to feel nauseous and made a suggestion to Zhao Hongyu.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
