Puff, puff, the officers and soldiers of the allied countries of the Italian Peninsula just stood up for a second, and a large number of officers and soldiers seemed to be shot, standing up and spurting blood, and the flintlock pistols in their hands fell weakly to the ground and fell backwards!

However, the elite of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula still kept getting up and filling the empty seats of the dead soldiers!

The soldiers of the Taiping Army's Heavenly King Guards in the rear used the method of cross-firing from both sides to form several rows of salvo horizontal formations on the left and right sides of the rear of the attacking column, and killed the officers and soldiers of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula who were defending in front of them, so as to cover their own column to rush to the front.

After all, there were a large number of horse-resisting stakes in front of the position, and there was a trench with sharpened wood inserted in front of the breastwork, and it would take a lot of time for the infantry to jump over, and if the soldiers of the allied armies of the Italian Peninsula behind the breastwork fired a salvo during this time, it would inevitably cause tragedy!

Originally, in the eyes of the commanders of the allied forces of the Italian peninsula, this kind of perfect fortification would inevitably make the Taiping army bleed, but it was not expected that the Taiping army's individual rifles had such a long range and were so accurate!

Therefore, rows of accurate volleys directly blinded the elite soldiers of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula who stood up.

A hundred soldiers stood up, more than 70 arrived without waiting for the shots to be fired, and the rest of the soldiers kept falling around them, no matter how strong their mental qualities were, they could not accurately aim at the enemy, and they hurriedly lay down again after firing a shot, and then when they released their guns, another group of soldiers from the allied countries of the Italian Peninsula fell......

Under the cover of Minnie's rifle crossfire, the soldiers of the Taiping Heavenly King's Guards attacking the column managed to rush to the trench without a few deaths, and immediately, under the orders of the officers, rows of grenades that had already been prepared rose into the air and fell into the crowd behind the breastwork!

Boom boom boom ~~~

A row of rumbling sounded one after another, and the soldiers of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula behind the breastwork were bombed in a dim and dizzy way, and when the survivors came back to their senses, they looked around, and everywhere were the Taiping soldiers who jumped over the breastwork and shouted 'Long live the King of Heaven' with bayonets!

In hand-to-hand combat, even the elite of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula are not the opponents of the soldiers of the Heavenly King's Guards who have strengthened hand-to-hand combat, and often need two elite soldiers of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula to fight against a soldier of the Heavenly King's Guards in a bayonet battle!

It is conceivable how miserable the fate of the allied soldiers of the Italian Peninsula was in the bayonet rush of the Heavenly King's Guard, who took the lead......

The gap was opened, and the surging flow of Taiping soldiers, with the fire support of Mini rifles, frantically poured in, expanded horizontally, and cleared out the soldiers of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula in the defense line one by one, and then, the Heavenly King's Guard, which was responsible for the fire cover, also entered the defense line, captured the small high ground, and slaughtered the soldiers of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula in other parts of the defense line!

The entire line of defense was quickly broken under the gluttony of several gaps, and even the elite soldiers of the Italian Peninsula could not withstand such an attack, and they were routed backwards, while the Heavenly King's Guards followed behind and killed and wounded a large number of enemy infantry with ultra-long-range Mini rifles.

As the rout poured into the second line of defense of the allied forces of the Italian peninsula, the Taiping army followed, showing a volley of volleys to spread out the artillery positions in the second direction, and then relied on the cover of long-range fire to drive the rout directly onto the second line of defense.

Among the allied forces of the Italian peninsula, the first line of defense is undoubtedly the most elite, and the last two lines of defense are basically elite mixed with ordinary mercenaries.

The most important thing is that the Taiping army pursued it without hesitation, regardless of the sacrifice of the strong attack, and with the rout, several gaps were quickly opened again!

As a result, the scene of the collapse of the first front was repeated again, and many of the routed soldiers were tired of running, so they simply threw their weapons, knelt on the ground and raised their hands in surrender, their eyes full of ashes.

The soldiers of the Heavenly King's Guards who were attacking did not even look at the soldiers kneeling on the ground, and these people naturally had the friendly forces behind them in charge.

The soldiers of the Heavenly King's Guards in front of them only need to keep moving forward!

With the collapse of the second front, the pursuing Heavenly King's Guards just replaced with a new force and continued to pursue the rout.

In this way, the main force of the Heavenly King's Guards alternately covered the pursuit and routed the troops, and even laid down three lines of defense, and in just one day's effort, they hit the city of Venice!

If it weren't for the fact that Venice City ignored its own troops outside and closed the city gate in advance, I am afraid that the Heavenly King's Guards would be able to rush into Venice City along the flow of people to fight for the city gate.

Therefore, the behavior of the allied officers and soldiers in Venice was still correct, that is, it was too cruel to treat the rout of the outer defense line.

The Celestial Guard's guards raised their guns and shot at the routs blocked by the city gates, as if they were at the scene of the execution, while the firing points at the head of Venice were pulled out one after another under the long-range fire of Mini's rifles.

The soldiers of the allied forces of the Italian peninsula who used flintlock pistols were full of grievances in their hearts, this kind of enemy rifle could hit themselves, but they could not fight the enemy's war, they were fed up!

Soon, the large group of defeated soldiers who were blocked outside the city, unable to stand this one-sided slaughter, collectively raised the white flag to the vanguard of the Heavenly King's Guard.

Tens of thousands of armies were wiped out!

The next day, these soldiers were improvised and organized, carrying sandbags and other sundries, to fill in the moat of Venice and build a temporary wooden bridge!

When the troops were killed and injured by the city, the Heavenly King's Guards behind used long-range accurate shooting to kill and injure a large number of firepower points at the outcropping of the city.

Soon, the Venetian defenders were wounded in the counter-fire......

In this way, with the efforts of the surrendering troops, temporary wooden bridges were erected, and the demolition team of the Heavenly King's Guard, carrying a large amount of gunpowder, hid in the crowds of surrendered troops, and rushed to the foot of the city to plant explosives under the cover of their own firepower.

The massive use of black powder turned the once unattainable city wall into an ornament, and with a few loud bangs, the thick and tall city wall was blown out of several gaps!

The Heavenly King's Guards pulled the captured Italian artillery over, aimed at the gap and bombarded it with the captured flowering shells, and then, the soldiers of the Heavenly King's Guards held bayonets and grenades, shouting and rushing in!
