144 The people are in the city

Because the flintlock pistol was not fully popularized in the middle of the 17th century, Hong Tiancheng ordered people to collect the flintlock pistol that could still be used after each war, and the general lead bullet and black powder could not be let go at all, other arquebuses and broken flintlock pistols were destroyed uniformly, and the cold weapons were selected by the soldiers themselves, leaving a batch for backup, and the rest were destroyed.

The Taiping army relied on this method to ensure the sufficient supply of ammunition for the battle, and every major battle was not only the enemy's dead soldiers, but also their own dead soldiers would also provide a large number of unused ammunition supplies, the way was very cruel, but it was very clever to solve the Taiping army's ammunition and weapon supply problem.

This is very important for the Taiping Army, which has not perfected the logistics production base!

As for ordinary supplies such as grain and grass, it is enough to rely on the robbery of white civilians in the war zone and the spoils of war after the war, just like in this battle, the Taiping Army originally had more than 10,000 troops, and after the first battle, the number of troops supplemented by lottery was only more than 4,000 people, and the supply was naturally greatly surplus......

In the city of Moziri, Mihau Vodijovsky stood in front of the last remaining soldiers and horses of the headquarters with a sad expression, and loudly proclaimed the encouragement before the war: "The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is an army of cannibalistic demons, they will not leave any prisoners, and it is impossible for the defeated to have a chance to be free......

Interestingly, Michau Vvodijowski was doing the pre-war mobilization work, but the gates of Mozyri City were crowded with large and small convoys, and the Polish noble generals who originally fled into Mozyri City and some of the original wealthy families in Mozili City fled outside the city with their families, and they all had a common purpose - to stay away from the plundering and killing of the Taiping army like tigers and wolves!

It was undoubtedly a wise choice for the dead Jan Skzhetusky to choose General Mihau Vvodijovsky as the commander-in-chief of the city of Mozyri, and in such a situation where everyone fled, Mikhau Vvodijovsky was able to organize his own troops and horses, and a group of militia young and strong people to participate in the defense of the city to resist to the death!

Compared to the group of Polish aristocratic generals who were frightened, Mihał Vvodijowski is simply a real national hero!

Only at the moment of crisis can we know who is the real hero!

Although heroes tend to die faster, it is precisely because of this that people who stand up as heroes without hesitation are worthy of everyone's admiration.

Of course, for invaders like Hong Tiancheng, this kind of heroic figure is the most annoying, everyone hopes that their own nation will produce heroes, but they are also disgusted with the hostile nation to produce heroes, the only difference is that the position of the ass is different, the weak people look forward to peace and well-being all day long, and the strong people covet the surrounding neighbors all day long to find opportunities to steal interests, which has nothing to do with moral standards, but just the instinctive nature of human beings.

It is precisely because of this human instinct that wars frequently break out between countries without legal constraints, after all, human society is a system in which a few people decide the majority, and as the majority of the civilian group, it will never be able to influence the upper ruling class......

Just like Hong Tiancheng now, he has the opportunity to control his own destiny, and similarly, he has also pushed himself to the point where he can only move forward and not retreat......

The ruling class has never been soft on threats to its own existence, and did Napoleon, who had such a high prestige in history, also die in the slow poisoning of the British?

If it weren't for the fear of provoking the French to another war, Napoleon might not even have had a chance of exile!

It was precisely because Hitler the mustachioed saw through this that he gave himself a relief when Berlin fell, and once he fell into the hands of the enemy, with his past, life was almost a certainty.

Even if the mustachioed Hitler committed suicide, and was later whipped by Soviet soldiers, the inferior nature of human beings has never changed!

The city of Mozili was not far from the plain of the war, and without any obstacles, it took the Taiping army less than a day to besiege the entire city of Mozili, of course, in order to reduce the resistance to capture the city, Hong Tiancheng deliberately left a gap on one side.

Killing people will not bring him much benefit, white young and strong is also a labor resource for him, as long as he can minimize the loss and take the city, Hong Tiancheng does not mind giving the defenders and civilians in the city a way out.

Hong Tiancheng of the Taiping Army did not know that Mihau in the city of Mozili was a diehard, but only learned from the captured fleeing whites that there were less than 1,000 defenders in the city.

So, under the orders of Hong Tiancheng, the Taiping army first sent a few white prisoners into the city to say their 'benevolent conditions' according to the usual routine.

It's basically the '...... as long as you surrender' series, because as long as the Taiping army enters the city, they can get sufficient supplies and crime points, Hong Tiancheng is naturally happy to sell this favor, he doesn't want to kill every city in the future and step on it like a river, he doesn't have so many troops to consume here.

When the main force is defeated, the defenders are not many, and the political status of the city is not high, often will not make fierce resistance, the people and defenders in the city know that they are invincible, they will not provoke the invaders as if they are dead, anyway, under the banner of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, they have to eat, sleep, work and reproduce, for civilians, there is little difference from life under the Polish flag.

The only thing that's a bit bad is that the Taiping Army's Sacred Treasury system is too brutal, but among the options between life and death, that flaw in the Sacred Treasury system is nothing at all.

The common people of this era have been living below the subsistence line, and the spirit of hardship and hard work can completely crush the future generations.

Oppressed and exploited is the common daily life of the common people, and after a long time, people will naturally become numb, until the French Revolution cannon sounded, the common people of the European continent did not know that they themselves were special individuals!

Just when Hong Tiancheng thought that the conditions offered were good enough to accept the city of Mozyri without losing a single soldier, a few heads and a letter with a slap in the face were handed over, the head was a white captive who was responsible for going in to persuade him to surrender, and the letter was naturally a handwritten letter from General Mihau!

The content of the letter can be summed up in four words - people are in the city!
