The Charismatic Charlie Wade – Chapter 2855

From the Song Dynasty to the late Ming and early Qing, the development of martial arts was relatively prosperous.

In the era of Ancient Chinese weapons, kung fu was very useful, not only to protect the home and the country, but also to make a living, so in addition to scholars, the rest of the people wanted to become martial arts masters.

However, in the Qing Dynasty, foreign powers introduced the country to guns and suddenly the countless martial arts practitioners discovered that they were no match for a gun, or a gun in the hands of foreigners.

In the beginning the most loyal and patriotic of the martial artists served the country with all their heart. Even so, their combined strength was not worth mentioning when faced with the firepower of the foreign countries.

The most amazing event was when thousands of regiments besieged hundreds of foreigners, where they attacked for 56 days. Yet even after almost 2 months of relentless assaults their stunning failure to even breach the foreigners fortifications left them dispirited and demoralized.
