The St. Petersburg shipyard became a consumption site for explosives and gasoline.

The engineers of the Ming Dynasty happily blasted various buildings in various ways. In the quiet midnight, you can always hear faint crying under the ruins.

The Ming army didn't care about this. They needed to faithfully carry out the commander's orders. If some ruins were slightly more complete, they would have to be bombed again.

For those shooting holes where bullets come out, fill buckets of gasoline into them. When ignited, flames will spray out along the shooting holes for more than a foot.

I couldn't hear the screams inside, but I could smell the burnt smell of barbecue.

It was already three days later when Prince Peter emerged from the basement again.

During these three days, the Ming army would fire artillery shells into the city from time to time. Li Xiu hated the city, and if possible, he would like to tear St. Petersburg off the face of the earth.

The reason is...! When Li Xiu's flagship Kunlun Mountain wanted to withdraw from the battlefield, it actually hit a mine.

Obviously, when entering the port, the destroyer had repeatedly conducted reconnaissance. There were no mines on the channel, but the Kunlun Mountain was still bombed.

There can only be one explanation for this. That night, the damn Russian warships not only bombarded the port, but also laid fucking mines in the port.

Even though the Kunlun Shan ship was thick-skinned and thick-skinned, it was still blasted with a large hole in the side string by a mine.

Seawater poured crazily into the interior of the Kunlun Mountain ship. If it weren't for the excellent management department, seawater would even pour into the boiler.

Here Li Xiu was still cursing, and a British cargo ship on the sea also unfortunately hit a mine.

The British ship did not have the armor protection of the Kunlun Mountain ship. The huge power of the mine directly blew the cargo ship, which was almost 5,000 tons, into two pieces.

Li Xiu looked at the supplies flying in the sky with hatred, and his head was dizzy with anger.

According to the prior agreement, the Ming Dynasty would handle matters at sea. Li Xiu boasted about Haikou in front of Napoleon and Frederick, and he also had the strength to boast about Haikou.

But now...!

Li Xiu felt like his face had been swollen after being slapped in the face with "pop" and "pop", and the Ming Navy's face was completely humiliated.

In order to regain his face, Li Xiu once again bombarded St. Petersburg. For this purpose, he even used ammunition from the supply ship. The ammunition transported by airship is still on the way.

St. Petersburg was very unlucky. Duke Peter was walking on a road full of ruins. He didn't even dare to think that this was the main road that was bustling in the evening.

The department store that once had so many people coming and going is now beyond recognition.

Many people gathered around the ruins, trying to find something useful from the broken bricks and tiles.

Unfortunately, we didn't find many usable things. We found quite a few burnt people!

Standing on the square of the Winter Palace, Prince Peter saw the large pit that was filled with water.

The pit is twenty meters in diameter and I don't know how deep it is, but the water inside is more than three meters deep.

There is almost no complete glass in the rooms of the Winter Palace, and there are still two dead men on the roof attracting crows.

After walking around St. Petersburg, Duke Peter's javelin-like body began to stoop. He thought of the cruelty of war, but he did not expect it to be so cruel.

"How are the casualties?" Peter asked his newly appointed city defense commander while sitting on a rock, covering his face.

"The total casualties have not yet been calculated, but the casualties among the citizens will definitely not be less than 40,000. This is the result of evacuating most of the citizens outside the city.

If the citizens had not been evacuated, the casualties would have been even greater.

The people of the Ming Dynasty were very good at fighting. Just at the city wall, our army killed nearly two thousand elites.

The biggest problem now is that people in the army are constantly fleeing, and some are even fleeing in groups with weapons." Konstantinovich said with some worry the biggest problem today.

"Those who retreat in the face of battle can be killed immediately without going through trial." Prince Peter said in a daze.

"A law enforcement team has been organized. With your order, we can do things more conveniently. It is too troublesome to always have to interrogate!" Konstantinovich was very happy that Prince Peter could issue such an order.

The military court has been running continuously, but there is still no way to conclude the trial quickly. After all, there are too many people waiting for the trial. It will take ten minutes at the minimum for everyone to be questioned.

At this rate, we can only kill six at most in one hour.

In many cases, military courts cannot achieve this efficiency. Some courts are even preparing to start collective trials to improve the efficiency of pronouncing death sentences.

With Prince Peter's words, it would be much more comfortable.

Anyone who was deemed a deserter was pulled out and shot on the spot. It only took one sentence and it didn't even take ten seconds. The efficiency of the shooting was greatly improved, and a lot of manpower and material resources were saved.

"There is another bad news!" Seeing that Prince Peter seemed to be in a better mood, Konstantinovich hurriedly reported some bad news.

"Is there any worse news?" Prince Peter asked, turning his face away from his hands.

"The Ming army is destroying the naval shipyard outside the city!" Konstantinovich said hesitantly.

"The Naval Shipyard, isn't there a Marine Corps stationed there? These people are all elites in the army. They are all carefully selected from the army, and they didn't even last three days?" Duke Peter was a little surprised.

This Marine Corps was formed by Dorgon in imitation of the Marine Corps of the Light Army. Its personnel and equipment are among the best in the Russian army.

As one of the founders, Duke Peter was well aware of the power of this army.

Although they are marines, this unit has been following Duke Peter since Dorgon left. In the market, Duke Peter was using this unit as a guard.

"In fact, they couldn't even resist. The Ming army was not there to occupy, they were there to destroy. They were outside the house, destroying the building wantonly with explosives and direct-aimed artillery.

Our soldiers hiding inside didn't have much chance to fight back.

Moreover, this time the Ming army stated that they would not take prisoners. Whenever they found an underground fortress hiding soldiers, they would fill it with fire oil and set it on fire.

Uh...! Daming's kerosene is very powerful, many times more powerful than ours. Just a small bottle can light a fire.

And...! Water couldn't be poured out, so many people were burned alive in the bunker. Even their charred corpses blocked the tunnels entering the city.

After the Ming army discovered the tunnel, they filled it with water. Now, no one in the shipyard can escape." After saying that, Konstantinovich quietly took a step back. He was very worried that Duke Peter would explode.

Start hurting people.

"How much!" Prince Peter's reaction was much calmer than Konstantinovich expected. He just asked coldly!

"One company plus two classes!"

Prince Peter closed his eyes again, what the hell is the difference between this and being completely wiped out.

"Uh...! There is good news, Your Majesty the Duke." Always reporting bad news will make Duke Peter lose confidence. Now that he is the backbone of St. Petersburg, we dare not scare him down.

"Is there any good news?" Prince Peter was rather puzzled about the good news.

"Most of the food in the city has been collected and managed uniformly. Since most people have been evacuated outside the city, there is enough food in the city to last for eight to nine months.

If during the winter, while Lake Ladoga freezes, we can transport some more from the lake, I think we can hold on for a long time!

In addition, you see, these ruins can be transformed into trenches and fortresses in the county. We can easily realize dispatching in the city by using the underground sewer system.

No matter it is the Ming army, the French army or the Prussian army, as long as they come into the city, they will have to fight with us one ruin after another.

It is estimated that it will take several years to completely defeat St. Petersburg. It also depends on whether our supplies are sufficient. The only problem now is that the weapons are slightly insufficient.

Can you send a messenger to ask for some from Her Majesty the Queen? In winter, it should be possible to bring it in from Lake Ladoga."
