Chapter 81: Technology Crushes the Sea of People
Hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers shouted the slogan that the sky is dead and the yellow sky should stand, rushed to the British front, and in a volley of muskets, spread all over the land!
The grapeshells fired by field artillery are the nemesis of these unarmored infantry, and the killing efficiency is higher than that of musketeers!
However, fighting in their hometown, the Yellow Turbans have an advantage, their morale is full!
After paving a path out of corpses, the Yellow Turbans finally got in touch with the British Infantry!
It's a pity that the British infantry bayonet melee can also suppress the Yellow Turbans!
Admiral Gordo watched the Yellow Turban soldiers on the opposite side fall and rush up one by one, and the corners of his eyes twitched. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In his tactical concept, the most important thing to do is to first take the new Chang'an, the capital of the Han Empire, let the avalanche of the Han Empire's rule collapse, and then organize the human resources of the Great Plains of Florida to establish a cannon fodder army based on numbers as an auxiliary to the British infantry.
At that time, if they come to attack the territory of the Yellow Heaven Sect Master, the British soldiers will definitely have an easier time than now!
The number of Yellow Turbans is so large that even if a British soldier kills 10 Yellow Turbans, he will not be able to kill them all!
People have physical limits, and in the very beginning of hand-to-hand combat, the casualties of the British soldiers were minimal, but as time went on, the British soldiers' front could no longer be maintained!
Admiral Gordo had to send a small cavalry unit to assault the Yellow Turbans and then withdraw the weary British infantry.
This process is the process of cutting the flesh of the British infantry with a large number of casualties!
Admiral Gordo could already foresee that the British soldiers killed here would definitely be much more than attacking the Han Empire's defense line when they landed!
What a wickedness!
What is it that attracts the parliamentarians of the Reich so much, and needs to make so many British soldiers pay the price in blood!
The charge of the Yellow Turban Soldiers, launched a whole day of melee, until the sun went down, such a daytime battle, will make the British army's attack appear a few days of fault, let the Yellow Heaven Sect Master have a few more days of respite!
It can be said that the Yellow Heaven Sect Master is completely using human lives to consume the number of British infantry!
The Yellow Turbans even captured a lot of discarded artillery that had been blocked by British artillery......
If Admiral Gordo had commanded this campaign, he would have withdrawn his troops at this time, and this kind of cannon fodder army could also be formed in the British Empire, so why should it be consumed here with regular troops?
However, without defeating the Han Empire, the British Empire would not be able to rule the Florida Peninsula, mobilize manpower here, and organize cheap cannon fodder regiments......
Luckily, there's also a Georgia next door!
A large number of Georgian militias were reinforced, and these Georgian militias also used flintlock muskets!
Councilor Torres is consuming it with the Yellow Heaven Sect Master!
The war between these two enemies of the Han Empire indirectly strengthened the guerrillas of Ares and Guan Yu!
The Georgia militia has been transferred in large numbers, and the local garrison has been weakened, giving Ares and Guan Yu a lot of loopholes to exploit!
The guerrillas, in the form of bandit robbers, enter Georgia and start robbing anything that works for them!
It is true that in the process of robbery, the guerrillas also suffered a lot of losses and were defeated many times by the Georgian militia, but in the war, under the survival of the fittest, the number of Han guerrillas became smaller, and the combat effectiveness was enhanced!
Moreover, with the support of the Spartan Temple, Ares and Guan Yu can still get a small number of additional troops from the Florida Peninsula!
In the months of encirclement and suppression of the British army against the Yellow Heaven Sect Master, the guerrillas of Ares and Guan Yu fought more than 10,000 elite soldiers, and all of them were armed with flintlock muskets!
In the Han Empire, the flintlock pistol was a precious item, and under the British Empire, the flintlock pistol was only a basic weapon!
Under the attack of a large number of Georgian militia and British infantry regardless of casualties, the Yellow Heaven Sect Master could not resist the army of the firearms age after all!
The British Imperial Army, with its muskets and artillery, can easily score a casualty ratio of more than 1 to 10, and hundreds of thousands of troops can't withstand such consumption!
Finally, after several months of heavy casualties of nearly 50,000 Georgian militia and British infantry, the British Empire broke through the last main city of the Yellow Heaven Sect Master!
The Yellow Heaven Sect Master is free and easy, knowing that without the Yellow Heaven Altar and without the War Coins, it is difficult to survive in this world, and when few of his Yellow Turban soldiers were killed, he killed his own women and children, and then ** in the luxurious palace!
Councilor Torres didn't care about the life or death of the Yellow Heaven Sect Master, after breaking the city, he came to the Yellow Heaven Altar non-stop, and ordered with bright eyes: "Destroy this altar and burn it all!" ”
Dozens of tall and sturdy British soldiers began to busied, completely destroying the anti-heaven altar in front of them, which could burst out with tens of millions of people in an instant!
Councilor Torres nodded with satisfaction after hearing the tone in his ears, this time he has made a great contribution, after returning to the Empire, even if the Battle of the Florida Peninsula is lost, it can make his status and power within the Empire greatly increased!
Under the reward of the massive gold coins of honor that destroyed the Yellow Turban Altar, the Florida Peninsula is just a dispensable small profit, perhaps, the next Prime Minister of the British Empire will be himself, hahaha......
Thinking of his future prospects, Torres laughed out loud without any image, Admiral Gordo just stared at the burning Yellow Turban Altar in the ruined area, what a huge price the empire paid for destroying such a thing!
The most important thing is that the best opportunity to destroy the Han Empire was missed, and with so much time to reinforce, presumably the new Chang'an of the Han Empire will become a graveyard for imperial soldiers again......
Hey, these politicians of the Imperial Diet really spared the lives of the Imperial soldiers for their own interests......
Admiral Gordo thought decadently, although he knew the ugliness in the hearts of these parliamentary politicians, but he was powerless to change all this, not to mention his current status as a general, he was still the commander of the expeditionary force, glamorous, but in the eyes of those members of the imperial parliament, his own generals were just working for them......
In the British Empire, the power of the parliament is above all else, especially the control of the army, which has completely penetrated into the grassroots, and the MI6, which is feared by the people of Great Britain, is the weapon of the parliament to control its own country!
However, in the course of these months, to what extent did Li Liguo's campaign dungeon go? (To be continued.) )
