Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 311 Design
Zhao Wen looked at Putmans standing in front of him respectfully, and asked, "What is the deployment of your troops in Java and the specific situation?"

The young man standing beside Zhao Wen translated Zhao Wen's words.

Putmans listened to the language translated by the young man, and looked at Zhao Wen's cold eyes, feeling uneasy.

Obviously, the reason why Zhao Wen asked this question was because he was thinking about Java.

Zhao Wen's firepower Putmans has personally experienced it. Even if he doesn't know the deployment of Java's troops, he can easily sweep Java.

If he knew, it would definitely be easier to uproot the power of the empire in Java.

Putmans looked at Zhao Wen, and suddenly became entangled.

Java was finally occupied by the empire. The empire can get a lot of money in Java every year, and Java is also the main transportation route for the empire to conquer the east. If Java is lost, the impact on the empire will not be insignificant.

But if I don't say it, then people like myself might not survive tomorrow, but if I say it, even if I escape in the future and let the empire know, the empire will not let me go.

Either way, it was a death, which made Putmans tangled for a while.

Although Putmans was the governor of Zeelandia, he didn't know much about the deployment of troops in Java, only a little bit.

The expression on Putmans' face changed again and again. He looked at Zhao Wen and was speechless for a long time.

Zhao Wen looked at the melancholy Putmans, and scolded impatiently: "Hurry up, or I will send you to heaven."

Although Putmans couldn't understand Zhao Wen's words, he could feel a trace of murderous intent from Zhao Wen's words.

The young man translated Zhao Wen's words.

Putmans breathed a sigh of relief and said with a troubled face: "Although I am the governor of Zeelandia, I don't know the deployment of troops in Java, and I don't know the deployment of troops in the entire city of Batavia. .”

When the young man explained this sentence to Zhao Wen, a murderous intent flashed in Zhao Wen's eyes, Zhao Wen looked at the young man with a gloomy face, and said coldly: "Are you sure you don't know? I advise you to Think about it carefully, you are in my hands now, I advise you to think about it.

Let me tell you, after I am done with the affairs of Zeelandia, I will definitely go to Java and uproot your forces.I advise you to think about it carefully, and don't lose your life for no reason. "

When the young man translated Zhao Wen's words, Putmans became anxious for a moment.

He looked at Zhao Wen, tearing up, and shouted: "I really don't know, I really don't know, even if you kill me, I don't know."

Zhao Wen looked at Putmans, who was frightened and refused to say anything, and said to the soldiers guarding him, "Pull him down."

Putmans looked at the soldiers who pulled him down, thinking that Zhao Wen was going to kill him, so he hurriedly shouted.

Zhao Wen looked at the back of Putmans leaving, and a bold plan gradually emerged in Zhao Wen's mind.

"Even if you know the deployment of your troops, it will be more troublesome to deal with. It's better to let you gather together and kill them all at once, uprooting them."

Zhao Wen stood up, looked at the gradually sinking sun in the sky, and said to the guards beside him, "Bring me Song Hu, Zhao Daniu and Mao Chengmei."

After a while, the three stood beside Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen looked at them and asked, "How is the situation in the city now?"

Song Hu cupped his hands at Zhao Wen, and said, "My lord, everything in the city is normal now, and we have cleared out the corpses in the city. Besides these things, we also found a large number of silver ingots in the city."

"Is there any silver? It seems that these Hongyi did not send out the looted silver. Okay, let's not talk about this. If it is going to be dark today, there are still some suitable camps outside the city. Set up camp first." Bar.

Tomorrow, the entire city of Zeelandia will be cleaned up. All the rubble in the city will be cleared out. I plan to build a city here in the future. "Zhao Wen looked at a few people and said his plan.

"The subordinates take orders." The three of them clasped their fists at Zhao Wen and said loudly.

Early the next morning, the entire city of Zeelandia became a busy construction site. Under the command of Zhao Wen, the [-] soldiers took off their armor and carried out simple maintenance on the city of Zeelandia. .

In fact, the bastion of Zeelandia City is not bad in this era, but it just met Zhao Wen.

If it is a weapon of this era, it is not so easy to attack the city of Zeelandia.

In history, when Zheng Chenggong recaptured the city of Zeelandia, he led the army to storm it for a long time without taking it down.

At that time, there were only more than 2000 defenders in the city of Zeelandia, and Zheng Chenggong had tens of thousands of troops in his hands, but even so, he still did not take down the city of Zeelandia.

In the end, a long-term siege was adopted. When the food and grass in the city of Zeelandia were exhausted, the soldiers inside could not hold on before leaving the city and surrendering.

Otherwise, it would not be so easy to regain the city of Zeelandia.

During the period of the siege, reinforcements from Hongyi continued to come, and these reinforcements were defeated one by one by Zheng Chenggong.

The bastion is quite a perverted existence now that there are no powerful firearms.

Zhao Wen thought that the future Zeelandia City would be built according to the specifications of the Bastion.

However, the current scale is far from enough, at least it must be able to accommodate [-] soldiers.

While Zhao Wen led the soldiers to clean up Zeelandia, Putmans and other prisoners were detained by Zhao Wen in a simple cell built with wooden piles.

The cell is surrounded by tall wooden stakes, and the gaps between the wooden stakes are barely enough for hands to be stretched out.

Putmans and Siviri and some of their subordinates were imprisoned in this cell.

The others were detained by Zhao Wen in another place.

It was Zhao Wen's intention to imprison Putmans, Siviri and their subordinates in one place.

Around this cell, there was only one soldier at this time.

The soldier was holding a 56 punch, leaning against the wooden stake outside the cell, his face was full of sleepiness.

Putmans squatted in the cell, looking at the drowsy soldier, a hint of excitement appeared on his face.

He looked at Siviri and pointed at the soldier.

A hint of excitement appeared in Siviri's eyes. He squeezed in front of Putmans, pointed at the drowsy soldier, and asked softly, "What do you want to do?"

Putmans looked at the key hanging on the soldier's waist, and said in a low voice: "Those soldiers are now paying attention to the city of Zeelandia, and this cell is far away from the city of Zeelandia. Now there is only one soldier in custody. , I think we have a great chance of escaping."

Siviri said: "How sure are you?"

"Don't worry about how sure it is, as long as you can escape. These soldiers are extremely fierce. If we don't escape in time, there is a high chance that we will be killed by this group of people." When Putmans thought of Zhao Wen's attitude towards his captives, his heart shuddered for a while.

Siviri thought for a moment, then said: "In that case, let's do it. Just rush out, there are our warships on the harbor outside.

The sailors with me are just enough to start a battleship, and then we will escape in the battleship. Siviri looked back at his subordinates behind him, and said to Putmans.

"It's daytime now. It's not so easy to drive the battleship out. I think we should act at night."

"I think so too, but our main purpose now is to get the keys hanging from the waists of the soldiers outside. Only after we get the keys in our hands can we have the capital to escape, otherwise, everything will be lost." It's empty talk."

The two squatted in the cell, looking at the drowsy soldiers outside the cell, discussing non-stop.

The drowsy soldier leaned against them, sitting on the ground, leaning his back against the wooden stake of the cell, nodding his head constantly, looking extremely sleepy.

However, if you look at it from the front, you can see that the soldier is not asleep, and there is not even a trace of tiredness on his face.

This soldier is none other than the young man who translated for Zhao Wen.

He was wearing a military uniform, and the helmet on his head was pressed extremely low, covering most of his face, so Putmans didn't recognize him.

The young man kept nodding his head, pretending to be extremely sleepy, and listened to the conversation between Putmans and Siviri.

The young man narrowed his eyes, then buried his head on his lap, and snored.

Of course, this snoring sound was exactly what he made on purpose.

Putmans and Siviri looked at the young man who was snoring and stopped moving, with excitement in their eyes.

Putmans rolled up his sleeves, stretched out his right hand, stretched out from the gap of the wooden stake, and touched the key on the young man's waist.

The young man only had one key hanging around his waist, and Putmans didn't have to worry about which key it was.

Putmans' right hand was getting closer and closer, but the young man didn't seem to notice it, and he was still snoring.

Putmans took a deep breath, feeling uneasy.

His eyes kept flicking back and forth between the young man and the key.

Finally, he grabbed the key on the young man's waist.

He held the key tightly and stared fixedly at the young man.

"call!"

Putmans let out a long breath, and slowly withdrew the hand holding the key.

The key on the young man's waist didn't seem to be firmly fixed, and Putmans pulled the key back with a light tug.

Siviri looked at the key in Putmans' hand, and his heart beat violently.

The captives behind the two tightly covered their mouths and looked at Putmans with bright eyes.

After a few breaths, Putmans finally took his hand back.

The young man didn't even move from the beginning to the end.

After Putmans got the key in his hand, he hurriedly dug a hole in the ground and buried the key in it.

After doing all this, Putmans and Siviri looked at each other with a relieved expression.

After that, the prisoners in the cell stayed quietly in the cell as if nothing had happened.

Putmans looked at the sun in the sky, quietly waiting for the night to fall.

The young man leaning against the outside of the cell seemed to be completely asleep, staying there, motionless, snoring non-stop.

At last night fell and the moon rose.

From the beginning to the present, during this period of time, no one came over except the young man outside the cell.

The moon was getting higher and higher, and it was already midnight in the blink of an eye.

The young man leaning against the cell stood up from the ground, yawned and walked towards the distance.

Putmans and Siviri looked at the young man who left and hurriedly dug the key out of the ground, and hurriedly walked towards the big lock hanging on the cell door.

Siviri looked around, eyes full of vigilance.

"Click!"

With a crisp sound, the large lock hanging on the cell door opened in response.

Putmans glanced around, and then took the big lock off the gate.

At the same time, the young man came to Zhao Wen's big tent.

He cupped his hands at Zhao Wengong and said, "My lord, the matter has been settled."

"Okay, very good, you did a good job." Zhao Wen walked up to the young man, patted the young man's shoulder, and said with a smile on his face.

"Back to your lord, this group of Hongyi's plans are like this..."

As he spoke, the young man revealed the plans of Putmans and Siviri.

Zhao Wen chuckled, and said with a playful look: "Hehe, this group of people's calculations are pretty good."

"Send down the order to withdraw all the soldiers in the port, and only send a small group of people to monitor them. Remember, we must not let them find us.

Now their manpower can only drive away one ship. If they want to run, let them run. "

Zhao Wen looked at the people in the big tent and said.

"Subordinates will obey your lord's orders!"

Song Hu and the others in the big tent stood up, bowed their hands at Zhao Wengong, and then went outside, arranging Zhao Wen's order.

"Keep your voice down, don't make any noise, or you don't want to escape."

Putmans bent over, turned his head, looked at the people behind him, and said in a low voice.

Under the shadow of the moonlight, a group of people sneaked on the ground and hurried towards the port.

It was not long before they reached the port at last.

Originally, they were all ready to fight to the death with the soldiers in the port, but they didn't expect that there was no one in the port.

Five sailing battleships and five treasure ships lay quietly on the port, and it was pitch black above.

Putmans stopped, looking at the quiet and deserted port, his face was full of doubts.

"Isn't it too smooth for us? We escaped so easily? I really can't believe it? These soldiers are extremely fierce in combat. They don't seem to make such low-level mistakes, right?"

All this went so smoothly, Putmans really couldn't believe that he and his group escaped so easily.

Siviri turned around and said to Putmans, "What are you waiting for? Let's go quickly. As for why it went so smoothly, it must be that these soldiers didn't expect us to escape.

Alright, stop talking, since we have already escaped, let's go quickly, don't waste time. "

After Siviri finished speaking, he led his men towards a sailing battleship.

Although Putmans was very puzzled, he didn't think too much, and followed Siviri directly.
