Xinshun 1730

Chapter 731 Unorganized
Thinking that I still have a gun at home, which I bought for self-defense, Batavia is not a safe place.I can shoot a gun myself. Although I can't shoot it accurately, I also know how to load it.

After stomping their feet, they ran towards the house, thinking that after getting the gun, they would gather here.

I don't know how to fight, but wherever others go, I can go there myself.The big deal is to hide behind and shoot the gun, and pretend to fall when charging, just a few steps slower.

Of course I don't want to be beheaded by the Dutch, occupy the family property, and insult my wife.But if you want to come to the city, most Chinese don't want to.Since they don't want to, then they should try harder and just follow behind.

When I got home, my wife asked, "What happened?"

Sun Tao didn't answer, but rushed into the room and took out the gun, put the gunpowder bag on his body, and said: "The imperial court has sent troops to Nanyang. The Dutch will run away if they can't beat them. Before they run, we will kill all the Tang people Yes. Fortunately, Lord Kapitan got the news in advance, and he is going to have sex with the Dutch."

"After I'm gone, close the door and don't open the door if anything happens outside. If... if we are killed, you...you..."

Thinking of the worst possibility, if he failed to kill the Dutchman, but was killed by the Dutchman instead, he was afraid that his family would also be turned into ashes.

"What about you, take your child and hide in the well. Don't come out unless I call you. If I die, you will raise the child and don't make me a widow. It's not easy for a woman to take care of a child. , but if remarriage is remarriage, don’t change the child’s surname.”

His wife wanted to say something, but Sun Tao didn't care to listen, and ran out with a gun in his hand, shouting: "Close the door, hide in the well, and don't come out!"

After closing the door, regardless of what his wife yelled behind him, Sun Tao came to the court together with many neighbors in the street.

The Dutch forbade them for military service, and they were not as naturally organized and chaotic as sugar factory slaves.

Fortunately, Lian Fuguang and the others were somewhat capable, so they found a few red cloths to hang up, and found a few tall ones to hold them up.

As long as they can see where the red cloth is, these headless, unorganized people will know where to rush.

"Take the governor's mansion first! Brothers, go!"

What Lian Fuguang and others are most concerned about are the files of the Governor's Mansion.It can also be regarded as unintentionally inserting willows and willows into shade, causing chaos in the city, if there are besiegers outside, attack the city gate first; if there are no besiegers outside, attack the yamen first.

This kind of unintentional act of inserting willows is actually in line with the art of war.

More than 2000 Chinese men were carrying guns, knives, or even wooden sticks and shovels. They didn't know how to fight, but just stared at the red cloth on the wooden pole in front of them.

Whichever way the red cloth goes, he just runs in that direction.

The people holding the red cloth and wooden poles were all Lian Fuguang's subordinates.

Wang Wu and the others were mixed in and did not separate. Nearly forty people held guns and followed the red cloth on the wooden pole as pioneers, rushing towards the Governor's Mansion.

The city of Batavia is not big, and because of its long rule, the military significance of the Governor's Palace has declined, and the political and ruling significance has increased. It is not like Colombo, which was built in a fortress area.

Batavia is a city, not just a city.

The uprising by the Chinese in the city was never expected by the Dutch.There are not many defenders in the Governor's Mansion, and they are all clerks of some companies.

If it was 20 years ago, these clerks basically all had military experience.Always grab a gun and get organized whenever you need it.

However, after the War of Spanish Succession, the Netherlands was drained of blood by France, lost its patriotic enthusiasm, and disarmed on a large scale, and Europe became like this.The Netherlands, which was able to pull out an army of 13 back then, can't even make up 2 people now.

Today's company employees have never experienced the Spanish Succession War, and they are a generation that grew up in the context of disarmament. They have no experience in the army at all, and they panicked for a while.

The Dutch defenders in the city are all in the city wall and bastion area, and it is impossible to be stationed in the center of the city at ordinary times.

When the rioting Chinese rushed over in a panic, everyone on the street who had any sense ran to hide at home.It is impossible for a fool to see the excitement on the street and run over to ask these Chinese with knives and guns: What are you doing?

In the crowd, Sun Tao didn't know where he was now.

There were people all around, and there were some yelling sounds in my ears, and Sun Tao himself was yelling there to embolden himself.

The louder the yelling and the more chaotic, the safer it seemed, and it seemed that there were a lot of people on my side and they were very imposing.

Moreover, the noisy screams can cover up some screams, and make one's mind run out of capacity to think about other things.

Sun Tao grew up in Batavia since he was a child, and Batavia is not a big city.In normal times, anywhere in the city, you would know where it is.

But now, when Sun Tao looked forward, he was in the back of his head.

Looking to the left, it is the screaming neighbor; looking to the right, is the butcher with a butcher's knife.

Can't tell where it is now.

Where are you now?do not know.

Where is this attacking?It seems to be the Governor's Palace, but where is it?do not know.

What is it like in front?Still don't know.

But at least, knowing that there should be no failure ahead.

Because the only thing that can be seen is the bright red silk cloth on the front wooden pole, floating high.

As long as the big red silk cloth is still floating, it proves that the team is undefeated and the front is undefeated.

But once the red cloth fell down, the people behind would scatter away, not knowing where to go, they must have turned their heads and ran away subconsciously.

Anyway, the big guys don't know how to fight, so they all look at the red cloth on the wooden pole and walk forward. When they get together, they are courageous.

Looking up, he looked up at the red cloth on the wooden pole in front of him, and if he didn't pay attention, he almost tripped under his feet.

Looking down, it was an unlucky European, I don't know which country it was from, and if it was a Dutchman, he was beaten to death by the people in front of him, and he was lying on the ground.

"If you die, you still want to trip someone up?"

Cursing secretly, when I looked up at the wooden pole again, I found that the wooden pole shook suddenly, as if it was about to tilt.

Suddenly, I felt that it was over, that it was time to lose, and I never thought that the wooden pole would stand upright again, higher and straighter than before, and the huge red silk cloth rattled.

Seeing that the wooden pole and the red cloth hadn't fallen down, Sun Tao was also relieved.He continued to yell, stopping from time to time to load gunpowder and lead bullets, and fired a shot into the air.

Front rank.

The strong man holding the wooden pole just now was beaten to death.

But the people around Wang Wu immediately took the wooden pole, held it high, and rushed towards the Dutch Governor's Palace.

Behind him was a group of rabble who had no military training at all. Wang Wu understood this very well, because the most important thing he learned in Weihai was the importance of organization and discipline.

In the last years of the former dynasty, the Eastern captives rebelled, and the field battles were extremely strong.

However, in the early stage, it was also a group of rabble.

In the Battle of Martun, the old slave led four hundred soldiers to attack a fort, but everyone shrank behind the shield car and dared not stand up.It was the old slave who rushed out and shot Wushuang, shot at five people angrily, and the other side scattered.

Zhengzhe and Chen Department, 800 people lined up on the opposite side, and before the fight started, the soldiers on the old slave's side were scared again, and they didn't dare to go up at all.It was the old slave who took his younger brother and rushed into the crowd with armor and opened Wushuang, hacking more than ten people to death, and the 800 people on the opposite side dispersed.

This is not necessarily bragging, it is basically the real level at that time, because this is not a compliment at all, it is clearly a rookie pecking at each other, and the organization and discipline are in a mess.It's exactly the same as the situation in Japan where they often ride and discuss.

If it had always been at this level, there would have been no such thing as the disaster of the Eastern captives in the last years of the previous dynasty.But relying on Kai Wushuang in the early stage, he started to build the army and improve the organization in the later stage. It was not until six years later that the order and prohibition were basically achieved, and finally became a strong army... at the level of the Ming army in the founding era.

The experience and lessons of the last years are not limited to the Eastern captives.

When Dashun started his family, he actually fought like this.

Emperor Taizu also took a few brothers who could fight and ran ahead to Kai Wushuang, followed by the victims of the disaster.

In the later period, thousands of elite frontier troops joined the group to pull up a team of tens of 10 people.It was not until the later period that orders and prohibitions were implemented, and there were elite spearmen and cavalry like the three walls.

The reason why the martial arts examinations of the dynasty were all brave warrior kings was because of the previous level of organization, except for a strong army with a hundred battles, basically a brave general Kai Wushuang was required.

For the group of people behind him, Wang Wu has a clear enough understanding: you can't fight tough battles, but as long as the wooden pole with the red cloth hanging in front doesn't fall down, these people will dare to charge forward.But if the wooden pole falls down, regardless of the more than 2000 people, they will probably disperse.

Wooden poles are more important than anything else at this time.

Fortunately, there are almost no organized Dutch soldiers in the city, and it is impossible for the few to line up and shoot at this side.Wang Wu knew that as long as the governor's mansion was captured, the Dutch in the city would be in chaos.

The Dutch soldiers guarding the various bastions lacked a central command, and would definitely choose to hide in the fortress and wait instead of taking the initiative to attack.

Fortunately, the servants, servants, and thugs of Lian Fuguang and others are quite brave.

Moreover, the Dutch were unable to organize. The battles so far have basically been fighting at the level of street young and Dangerous boys hacking people.

This kind of thugs and servants are very suitable for this kind of war rhythm of young and Dangerous people slashing people on the streets, and their personal bravery and martial arts can be displayed.

But if it is really brought to the battlefield, there is no need to line up to shoot, and it may collapse during the shelling stage.

People who have not undergone strict training cannot bear the unexpected casualties of shelling, let alone the scene where an iron lump suddenly falls and smashes the bloody scene of the people around them.

The forty or so people on Wang Wu's side are all good players.They also have grenades and rifled guns in their hands. If they encounter resistance from the Dutch, they will make sharp knives and charge away.

As long as they rushed away, even Fu Guang and others' servants and servants would dare to follow and cut people.

They dared to follow up and kill people, and the people behind them dared to rush up and kill them.

In short, Wang Wu knew that he couldn't be blocked for too long.If the front is blocked and cannot be attacked, they will have to fight to the death.Otherwise, the people behind are likely to disperse and form a rout.These unorganized mobs are really like a tiger in one go, and then decline and exhaust.
