Zhao Dutian would never have imagined that the corrupt and degenerate officers and soldiers of the Manchu Empire in his impression would have a different kind of blood and bravery!

It is all to blame for the ridicule of the Manchu Imperial army in later generations, the disparagement of the Green Battalion and the Eight Banners for nothing, and the failure of the Opium War was all blamed on the decay of the Manchus......

In fact, in the Opium War, the defeat of the Manchu Empire was not because the Manchu Empire was weak or weak at that time, but because no one in the world was able to fight Britain and France!

Britain and France in the 19th century were world-class powers, similar to the status of the United States and the Soviet Union in the 21st century!

In the colonial wars of the world, Britain and France used crushing battles to win more with less!

The fact that the Manchu Empire could not be destroyed under the combined forces of Britain and France is enough to explain the problem!

The real decline of the Manchu Empire was actually the late stage of the Taiping Rebellion!

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom completely drained the foundation of the Manchu Empire, and destroyed the prestige of the Manchu Empire's army and the myth of the Eight Banners......

The First Sino-Japanese War was the last coat of the Manchu Empire, which was strong in foreign power and in the middle, and was reduced to a third-rate weak country......

After the defeat of the two Opium Wars before this, the Manchu Empire was actually not despised by the whole world, because in the face of countries like Britain and France, the whole world was being bullied, and it was a matter of course that the Manchu Qing was defeated......

It's a pity that when a little-known little Japan defeated the Manchu Dynasty, Aixin Jueluo's flowers and rivers could no longer be saved......

Before the Opium War, the morale of the military morale of the Manchu Empire was still good, because not only the upper class people had the pride of a great power, but the soldiers below were rotten, but they still regarded themselves as soldiers of a great country!

This pride was not completely collapsed until the Second Opium War, after the Battle of Bali Bridge!

And Zhao Dutian's army is facing this group of Manchu troops who think they are brave!

Wave after wave of death-defying charges, the corpses of the green battalion soldiers were piled up under the Dagukou fort, and the Sanpin chief in the rear looked at the bloody battle situation in front of him tremblingly, he knew very well that all the soldiers under his hands were the most capable green battalion soldiers in Tianjin except for the Eight Banners garrison, and they couldn't even touch the enemy's edge!

First a volley of guns and that kind of strange little cannon bombardment, then a bomb that could be dropped by a single soldier to blow up the approaching warriors into the sky, and then ...... And then there is no more......

Being able to rush into the grenade throwing range of the vanguard soldiers of the Han Army is already the limit of these green battalion soldiers!

When the Maxine heavy machine gun was mounted, the commander gave up the idea of attacking......

He knew that he had no room for recovery, and after only a few hours of fighting, more than half of the soldiers under his command were killed and wounded, and their morale was at the bottom......

After defeating the elite of the Green Battalion at the Dagukou Fort, the vanguard of the Han army's landing, carrying light grenadiers and rifles, drove straight into the city of Tianjin!

Under the spread of the news of the rout of the green battalion in front, wherever the pigeon battle flag went, they fled from the wind, and those flat-headed people watched coldly as the Han soldiers wearing black standing military uniforms and high hats passed by, there was no welcome, no hostility, some were just curious and indifferent......

"Hey, Guawazi, look at those soldiers holding pigeon battle flags, the military uniforms they wear are so beautiful, the hats they wear are so high, and they are not afraid of falling off. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"It's pretty good, but why haven't I seen this group of soldiers before? It seems that even the elite of the Green Battalion of the Lord Steward has been defeated by them, these people are so powerful......"

"Although these soldiers have different military uniforms, their faces are similar to our Han people, I just communicated with one of them, they also speak Chinese, it seems that the former Han court fled to foreign countries, the national army established, no, I want to re-ascend to the top!"

"Oh? Is it really a Han Chinese army? The Manchu Tartars also have today, hehe, I don't know if it will succeed this time. ”

……

Unlike the discussion of the common men, the conversation of the big girls and the little daughters-in-law is very pure.

"Wow, that soldier brother is so handsome, the clothes he wears are so beautiful, I really want to marry him......"

"Oh, that young guy is so handsome, I really want to give him a monkey......"

"You, such a handsome little student, you can accompany the slave family for one night, and you will be satisfied."

All of the above are conversations of the fireworks woman......

The real women of good families are all watched by the old and young masters at home, who comes out to break their legs!

This kind of scene of the army passing by, as long as it is a man with brains, he will lock his daughter and daughter-in-law tightly in the door, and never let them see his own woman!

In order to hurry as soon as possible and take the city of Tianjin, the Han army did not stay too much, and did not begin to garrison until the city of Tianjin!

They were waiting for the 75-mm field guns from the horses in the back to come over......

Just when the vanguard of the Han army approached the city, Tianjin was already in chaos, some people were happy and some were worried, and the joy was naturally those gangsters who were controlled by the secret service, and more than eighty percent of the Manchu bureaucrats and soldiers were worried!

The enemy is too strong to beat!

Even the generals in the city were alarmed, and with the Eight Banners of Bird Walking who temporarily put on armor, the fox and the tiger drove the green battalion soldiers to the city wall to guard!

Although the Eight Banners soldiers are no longer able to fight, they are still very hard at defending their own country, at least, those Eight Banner generals above are very hard!

A few days later, to the sound of donkeys, mules and horses howling, the 75-mm field guns were finally long overdue!

The mule-horse army was like this, not only to have artillery along the way, but also to serve the artillerymen......

It's not okay to pull artillery by people......

It's not that the Han army is reluctant, but the efficiency is too low!

At this time, more than 5,000 troops had been gathered under the city of Tianjin, as well as 5 75mm field guns that had been pulled over with great effort!

There are condescending red-coated cannons with a long range in Tianjin, and if the grenadiers go up to shoot at each other, they will cause a lot of casualties to their own soldiers, and for the vanguard of the Han army, which is not too rich, the problem that can be solved with cannonballs is naturally unwilling to use the lives of soldiers!

What's more, the 75mm field gun can directly knock down the ancient city wall!

Under the one-hour artillery bombardment, one part of the city wall of Tianjin City collapsed, and the defenders on it were already buzzing their heads, and they didn't know where to go......

After the city wall fell, there were few soldiers still on duty on the city wall!

Contrary to the bravery of the soldiers of the green battalion of the Dagukou Fort, after the prestige of the soldiers in black uniforms was introduced to Tianjin City through the rout, few officers and soldiers were still willing to fight this inevitable war!

"Attack! Long live the Emperor! "The officer of the Han State Vanguard Army pulled out his command knife and swung it down at the gap in the city wall!
