Rate this book
一陣陣的爆炸聲接連不斷。
義律想在民眾心裡造成恐怖的效果,確實發揮了作用。


琦善被英軍武器的可怕、技術的準確嚇倒,感嘆本國的海軍無用,他認為這樣的軍隊打也白搭,心裡預備撤軍。而義律擅自貼出告示,向香港島居民宣布:「根據天朝及英國政府雙方高級官員明白訂定之正式協定,香港現在已成為英國女王陛下領土的一部分。」迫使琦善簽約。

戰爭無可避免。二月二十三日,英軍兩天之後即將進攻虎門。靖遠要塞到處是燈籠的火光,司令部裡也燈火輝煌。要塞的戰旗上繡著「龍心」兩個大字,旗子卻是無力地垂著。龍的精神也振奮不起來了。逃跑的士兵逐漸增多,有的軍官跟士兵一起,不,帶頭跑了。

大火籠罩著火藥庫的時候,天色早已黑了,周圍已是一片黑暗。巨響和閃光打破了戰鬥結束後的夜晚寧靜。清朝的甘米力治號被英軍俘獲。義律下令燒毀甘米力號,企圖在民眾心裡造成恐怖的效果。
