"The disparity in national strength."

Shang Ke sighed with joy. Strictly speaking, he did not lose the shelling duel just now.

However, the loss of 800 artillerymen in the Qing Dynasty will be painful, but Dahua, the loss of a warship is really not a big deal, and another one can be built in minutes.

Therefore, as long as it is a battle that does not take advantage of it, it is a loss for the Qing Dynasty.

Fighting for consumption, they don't have the wealth to fight.

"Father, do we still have to hold on?"

Shang Zhixin asked.

The artillery is gone, and the city wall has fallen. It is probably not a wise choice to continue to garrison this place.

"Keep it for a while, anyway, this is something that will be faced sooner or later. Even if you retreat now, how many places can you retreat? Sooner or later, you will have to fight Hua Jun.

Now, I just hope that we will be stationed here to buy enough time for Prince Su. "

Shang Kexi said.

"Father, since you are no longer optimistic about Manqing, why do you continue to be loyal to Dahua?"

Shang Zhixin said.

Others dare not say such words lightly, but they are two fathers and sons, so don't worry.

Even if Shang Kexi was a die-hard loyalist of the Qing Dynasty, it was impossible for Shang Zhixin to be wiped out by righteousness.

What's more, Shang Zhixin also knew that his father was not loyal to the Qing Dynasty, but was just a good-natured trick.

Shang Kexi was also a member of the Ming army at the beginning, and fought many times with Houjin, and his father also died at the hands of Houjin. When Houjin attacked Lushun, all his family members in Lushun were also killed.

It can be said that he has a grudge with Houjin, and it is still a relatively big one.

It's just that he had a grudge with Shen Shikui, who was the Dongjiang commander in Daming at the time, and Shen Shikui planned to murder him. In order to survive, he had no choice but to rely on his enemy, Huang Taiji.

Then, it was reused in Huang Taiji.

However, no matter how much he was valued, Shang Kexi couldn't be loyal to the Qing Dynasty, nor would he be loyal to Da Ming or Dahua. He was an exquisite egoist who was only loyal to himself.

In order to survive, he could be allegiance to his enemies. For the sake of prosperity and wealth, he could also sell the Qing Dynasty without hesitation.

All of this depends on whether he can get enough benefits.

"It's too late, if there was a chance when Hua Jun just won Nanjing anyway, I might have taken refuge in the past. But now, there is no need. The icing on the cake, what can be compared to helping in the snow?

Now Dahua has no shortage of civil servants and military generals, and if they turn to the past at this time, they will not only have a low start, no status and no future, but also easy to be crowded out by the original officials. And we continue to stay in the Qing Dynasty, that is, giving help in the snow, and the Qing Dynasty will value and rely on us even more. If the Qing Dynasty can one day reverse the situation and turn defeat into victory, the benefits that we heroes can get are unimaginable. "

Shang Kexi's way of thinking is a little different from other people's. Everyone else is just a fool, and whoever is stronger will fall to the other side.

However, he Shang Kexi has taken a different approach and likes to surrender to the weak.

When he surrendered to Huang Taiji, Daming's strength on paper was at least dozens of times that of Houjin.

But he still did it, and the result, of course, was extremely successful for him personally.

When he stayed in Daming, he was only a lieutenant of the chief soldier, and even a small chief soldier dared to design and murder him privately, but when he arrived in Houjin, Huang Taiji traveled 30 miles out of the city to greet him, and was named King Zhishun.

Its status also belongs to the high-level in the post gold.

Shang Kexi's words sounded reasonable.

However, Shang Zhixin has grown up and has his own opinions.

In his opinion, if Daqing could not stop Dahua and was destroyed by Dahua in the end, then it would be meaningless to give help in the snow.

And the current situation is evolving in this direction.

This Qing Dynasty, it seems that no amount of charcoal can be saved.

While they were talking, the Chinese ships were approaching.

When they were still on the river, the soldiers of the Qing army began to shoot at the ships of the Hua army, because the distance between the two sides was too close, only tens of meters.

Not to be outdone, the soldiers of the Chinese army started to fight back while they were on the boat.

However, these are all consumptions that are better than nothing and cannot affect the overall situation.

Afterwards, the Chinese ships docked, and a large number of soldiers swarmed off the ship, arranged their formation, and walked towards the gap in the city wall.

When they reached the gap, Qing soldiers also appeared, and then both sides fired a shot.

Because the distance is too close, there is no time to reload after the first shot.

At this time, it is better to rush directly to the enemy faster than bullets.

Moreover, Hua Jun did exactly that.

After the first shot was fired, they charged.

Seeing this, the Qing army naturally gave up the plan to shoot and began to fight hand-to-hand.

Soldiers from both sides fought fiercely over the ruins, and this almost fair way of fighting did not actually take much advantage of the Chinese army.

After a few quarters of fierce battles, the troops were replaced by three batches in turn, but still no effective breakthrough was achieved.

Although the morale of the Hua army was high, the Qing army relied on Shang Kexi's high-pressure tactics, and its soldiers were not retreating.

This kind of high-pressure tactics was actually very harmful to the Qing army. As long as there was a chance, the soldiers would definitely flee in large numbers. There are no soldiers who are willing to follow such generals.

However, that is a long-term harm, which has not been revealed on the battlefield for the time being

Come.

Shang Kexi actually understands this potential harm very well, but he can't care so much anymore, and can only rely on this method to compete with Hua Jun.

So far, he has achieved good results.

Hua Jun was unable to break through for a long time, and could only rely on their unique skills again to use new weapons.

Whenever the situation cannot be opened, they will take advantage of the enemy's lack of understanding of new weapons to obtain great bargains.

This time, of course, Hua Jun also prepared a gift for Shang Kexi.

A transport ship docked, and fifteen soldiers came ashore with a tin bucket on their backs. There is also a long iron pipe connected to the iron bucket, which a soldier holds specially.

Their group, under the protection of a team of soldiers, approached the gap in the city wall.

This is the Pyro of the Chinese army, and they are carrying flame launchers.

Ancient and modern, all over the world, the use of flames in war has always been attached great importance.

The history of the original flame launcher was even earlier than the musket, but because of its many defects, it could not be popularized.

After Dahua's machining ability was improved, some defects of the flame launcher were solved.

As a result, the arsenal made such a batch of flame launchers that still looked very primitive.

Its power is not automatically compressed by air, but by hand cranking to provide power to inject flammable liquids.

Also, its ignition can only be used once.

That is to say, after the ignition, all the flammable liquids must be shot out, and there is no way to ignite the second time if it stops halfway.

Compared with the freely controllable flame launchers of later generations, the original cannot be more original.
