430 Germany surrenders
The Taiping fired all explosive shrapnel grenades against infantry machine guns, a shell was a crater, and the fortifications of the Crimean Khanate, which might have been useful in the 19th century, were torn apart like ragdolls under the bombardment of 75mm rapid-fire guns.
Severed limbs, stubble and sawdust, flying in all directions, screams and wails have been muffled by the explosion of shells, and the soldiers of the Crimean Khanate, who were shelled for the first time and had no concept of anti-artillery at all, sat or stood in place in a daze, and then were sent to hell by the shock wave of the explosion!
Even those Crimean officers and soldiers who reacted quickly and ran around could not escape the fate of being crushed in the end, and all the soldiers of the Crimean Khanate were exposed to the open field, which was the norm of warfare in this era, so they were bombed into the sky almost in piles......
The Taiping army obviously knew this, and carried out a continuous intensive covering artillery bombardment, which extended backwards, completely ignoring the consumption to flatten the entire defense system!
In fact, the Taiping army managed to do just that......
An hour later, the Taiping reconnaissance team stepped forward first, they jumped over the stake over the trench buried in dirt and corpses, jumped off the breastwork, the entire defensive position was almost turned over, not a single formation of the army of the Crimean Khanate still existed, only the scattered lucky ones stared blankly at everything around them.
When they saw the Taiping reconnaissance team rushing up with rifles, even if they survived ten times as many as the reconnaissance team, they scattered and fled without resistance, and the vast majority of Crimean soldiers chose to surrender on their knees.
When they surrendered, they didn't even have weapons in their hands!
Tens of thousands of people defended, spread for dozens of miles, the Crimean Khanate built a defense system for two years, and under an hour of shelling, it collapsed, except for the soldiers who fled, all the living people without exception voluntarily surrendered to the Taiping army.
They have been bombarded by artillery bombardments beyond common sense, and they have completely lost their fighting spirit.
Ironically, tens of thousands of troops in Crimea were wiped out without firing a single shot!
Since then, the undefended Crimean peninsula has been exposed to the bayonets of the Taiping army, without concealment!
The fleeing Crimean soldiers spread fear of the Taiping artillery throughout the Crimean peninsula, and the rest of the battle was essentially shelling and taking prisoners, and the Crimean Khanate, which had lost its elite and lost even its symbolic ability to resist......
The Taipings, almost in the posture of an armed march, occupied the entire Crimean peninsula!
And the Taiping army, from beginning to end, sent only one regiment of troops to capture the Crimean peninsula!
Because the Crimean Khanate was the border country with the strongest will to resist, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom mobilized all the 75mm rapid-fire guns to attack, and the Taiping army faced by Moldova and Transylvania in the other two directions did not encounter the 75mm rapid-fire guns, but under the superposition of grenadiers and Makqin heavy machine gun fire, the whole country surrendered with only symbolic resistance......
This time, the Taiping army did not carry out a mass killing, and for the country with a good attitude and voluntarily surrendered, the Taiping army retained a considerable part of the local people's positions, which released a very good signal.
As long as you don't resist the Taiping Army, your power, status, and wealth can be preserved!
If you resist, you will immediately become cannon fodder, and the real meaning is ashes that are shattered by shells!
When the Crimean Khanate fell, it lost tens of thousands of troops, and more than 100,000 were killed and wounded in the war, but Moldova and Transylvania, because they were liberated by the Taiping Army before, did not have a strong will to resist, and the high-level leaders of the two countries knelt down more steadily than one in order to keep their glory and wealth, so together they only killed and wounded more than 1,000 people......
As for the casualties of the Taiping Army, two people broke their necks during the battle, becoming the only case of death of Taiping soldiers, and 12 people broke their necks and broke the bridge of their noses due to accidents......
Not a single enemy soldier was hit!
Hong Tiancheng's two-year ammunition reserve is not made in vain, the supremacy of firepower has become the current combat routine of the Taiping Army, as long as the enemy does not surrender, a round of shells smashed over, whether it is a grenadier or a 75mm rapid-fire gun, after the bombardment, either collapse or raise a white flag, there will never be a third situation!
The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, which had occupied three small border states in less than a month, received an unexpected surprise when it pointed the finger at the German Republic.
The Germans, who had cederated the land without hesitation, surrendered the whole country without any chivalry, and did not waste a single shot of the Taiping army......
The reason why the German bones became so soft was very simple, during the occupation of the Taiping army in the German region, all the forces such as hard bones and knights and nobles were all eradicated, and only a few capitalists and merchants and the vast civilian class remained.
The most important thing is that in order to consolidate their rule, the Taiping army at that time carried out a period of enslavement education for the German nation, and greatly weakened the patriotism and nationalism of the German nation, and burned almost all German books......
The parliament that ruled the German Republic was basically held by representatives of the burghers, merchants, and a handful of bourgeois bosses, without a single aristocracy......
If these people have any backbone, it is a joke, the revolutionary ideas of this era have not yet germinated!
Thus, the Taiping army succeeded in subduing the German Republic by simply flexing their muscles, quickly destroying the three small states, and reserving their positions to the bigwigs in the parliament of the German Republic.
The Taiping Army's governance policy was simple, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was in charge of the military, and the local officials who surrendered to Cheng were in charge of the civil affairs.
Complete separation of military and political affairs.
After the occupation by the Taiping Army, there was no difference except that the regular army of the country was disbanded and organized into a local security regiment.
The Taiping Army did not even have a Han Concord Army, and only recruited some white men to build roads.
Of course, providing food for the Taiping army is also a must for the local government.
After the surrender of the German Republic, two Taiping German armourers and three breech-loading gun divisions made great strides into Central Europe, leaving only the necessary protection troops on important logistical routes, and all other territories were handed over to the local white regime in Toucheng.
The Taiping army did not worry about the rebellion of the local government at all, and wherever there was a rebellion, the Taiping army would kill wherever it went, until you submitted.
Now the civilians of the European continent have been killed by the Han people, as long as they are not brain-dead and have to be free and independent, the Taiping Army is too lazy to care about them, of course, the surviving white civilians are honest and obedient for their own lives.
