East Factory Governor

Chapter 804 Entering the Governor's Mansion

The 1 cavalry were almost completely wiped out, while the casualties of the Wulin coalition forces were only in double digits, a casualty ratio of almost 10:[-].

It has to be said that in this martial arts world, Daming has an absolute advantage in close combat against Western countries.

Besides, after annihilating the [-] cavalry, Zhang Xiao began to plan to attack the city.

It is naturally best to choose to attack the city at night, which is conducive to giving full play to the advantages of the masters of the Ming army.

If it was daytime, the dozens of cannons and hundreds of foreign guns on the castle would definitely have caused major damage to the Ming army, but it was different at night.

Speaking of night battles and sieges, I am afraid that any soldier in this Ming army can arrange tactics for you-does the Ming army do such things less often?
Choushi, the south gate of the castle.

Twenty soldiers in mercenary uniforms came out of nowhere in the city and came to the south gate in a neat line.

There were about fifty Portuguese soldiers guarding the south gate, and it was a bit inexplicable to see these mercenaries coming.

One of the officers came forward and was about to inquire, but found that the appearance of these local mercenaries was a bit strange.

Although the other person also has an Asian face, he always feels different from the usual local people.

He was about to ask, but he didn't want to make a sound, a cold blade sliced ​​across his neck, and his head flew up immediately.

It was Li Daliang who shot.

Li Daliang went out with the army this time, and he basically didn't play much, because he didn't need to play at all.

However, capturing the South Gate is of great importance, so Zhang Xiao sent him to lead the commando.

In addition to Li Daliang, there are Lai San'er, Meng Hu, Meng Wei, Chen Jing, Kongtong Ersheng and others, all of whom are first-class players.

After Li Daliang shot, they naturally followed suit.

For masters of their level, leading 20 people to kill [-] soldiers is not too difficult.

The difficulty was that the soldiers of the nearby creeping army came to reinforce them soon after they heard the movement.

In order to prevent the opponent from shooting, Li Daliang and the others did not kill all the creeping troops in front of them, but left 30 people as human shields, so that everyone was intertwined and it was not easy for the creeping troops to shoot.

In addition, Li Daliang and the others also cleverly knocked out all the nearby torches with stones. For a while, the south gate was pitch black, and only the figures could be seen, and it was impossible to tell who was who.

Squeak!

The city gate will be opened soon!
Someone lit a red signal firework.

A group of heavy cavalry who had been waiting several miles away rushed over immediately!

That's right, the equipment of this group of cavalry was snatched from the Portuguese cavalry, and there were more than 400 cavalry!
Let's talk about the south gate, the city gate opened as soon as it was seen, and the city defense officer of the prowling army couldn't sit still anymore, and immediately ordered to shoot.

Indiscriminate shooting!
Bang bang bang!
Countless bullets flew towards the dark place at the city gate.

The screams rose and fell one after another, and then the fighting stopped abruptly.

The crawling army couldn't see the situation there clearly, so they continued to shoot just to be on the safe side.

Bang bang bang!
Bang bang bang!
Until there was complete silence—except for the faint groans of dying people.

The torches were lit again, and the creeping soldiers bravely walked over to take a look. There were a pile of corpses of creeping soldiers lying on the ground in between, and there were four other corpses that looked like mercenaries but didn't look like mercenaries.

And the invading enemy army has disappeared without a trace!
Only the two city gates were left open.

The commander figured out with his toes that the group of intruders were hiding behind the door.

However, at this time, the sound of cavalry approaching could be faintly heard outside, and he had to close the city gate immediately instead of entangled with the group of intruders.

"Close the gate!"

he yelled with grapes.

A few creeping soldiers went up to close the city gates, but they didn't want to make a bang. One of the city gates bounced back as if hit by a giant tree, and knocked down four or five people who were going to close the gate. A creeping soldier.

At that moment, it was Li Daliang who shot.

He slapped the gate of the city with his soul-destroying palm, which was of extraordinary power.

The Portuguese may be beaten to death, but they can't figure out how a person can be so strong.

The masters of the Ming army who were hiding behind the city gate came out again, and the two sides got entangled again.

This time, the commander who ordered the indiscriminate shooting before was also in the melee, and finally no one dared to order the shooting for the time being.

But there are more and more creeping troops, and there are only a dozen masters left on Li Daliang's side, obviously outnumbered.

Lai San'er shouted excitedly, and asked Meng Hu, "Lao Meng, did the Duke and you fight against each other with four enemies? How about we have another match today, haha!"

Meng Hu laughed loudly, "Excellent!"

Meng Wei was speechless, thinking that this time is different, after a while the group of red-haired men will kill red-eyed and then shoot a volley of muskets, no one can stand.

Fortunately, the cavalry was very strong this time, unlike when they arrived late at Luowenyu, the more than 400 cavalry immediately killed them.

After the Portuguese defenders saw these heavy cavalry, they thought they were their own, and were stunned for a moment.

But they were very puzzled, the outside was already heavily surrounded by the Ming army, how did these cavalry come in?
The wise ones shouted at the top of the city and asked who they were?

But these cavalry didn't pay attention at all, if you want to be in a daze, just be in a daze, we will rush in!
As a result, it was not until more than 100 cavalry rushed into the city gate that the Portuguese defenders on the city wall determined that these guys were uninvited guests and quickly started to fight back.

But how can there be time?

After the heavy cavalry entered the arena, they easily broke through a bloody path, and then began to fight back.

There were only about 500 troops in the castle, and there were only more than [-] soldiers at the south gate.

Following the heavy cavalry were infantry with large shields, and they also entered through the south gate shortly after the heavy cavalry entered.

Totally overwhelming.

To be honest, this kind of siege warfare is really a child's play compared to fighting the Tartars.

It is true to say that a city guarded by more than 2000 people is not considered a defense in the Central Plains.Before the coalition forces attacked the city, which time the opponent's defenders were not tens of thousands?
When the Ming army entered the city, Meng Wei rushed up the city wall with a group of good men to disrupt the dense musketeers at the top of the city and reduce the casualties of the follow-up infantry.

For a while, shouts of killing mixed with Portuguese and Chinese were everywhere, but soon the shouts of killing in Chinese completely swept the battlefield.

European-style castles are generally very small. Compared with the cities in the Central Plains, they may not even be considered small towns.

After the army entered the city, it quickly broke through the defense line and quickly reached the governor's mansion.

Governor Nelson didn't even have the opportunity to arrange street fighting. Within less than a quarter of an hour after he learned that the south gate had been breached, about 800 Ming soldiers surrounded his Governor's Mansion like a bamboo shoot.

Outside the door, a captured Portuguese officer shouted inside, "Master Governor, we are surrounded, please surrender. The Ming army has promised to guarantee your personal safety."

Governor Nelson sat slumped in the Governor's Mansion at this moment, knowing that he had lost everything.
