Start: Datang Wanli a lonely city

Chapter 1005 It’s a desperate situation

Because considering that the Li family's manor could be invaded by the natives at any time, Hu Biao did not have time to put too much ink in the first safety zone.

Seeing Zheng Xiaozu, Huang Yaozong and other young men, their eyes were full of determination.

There was no need to ask nonsense like, "Have you ever thought about it?"

He took out an M1911 pistol from the holster on his thigh and a small melon grenade hanging on his body, and handed them to the two of them.

At the same time, he said in his mouth:

“Okay, okay, okay, after all, there are some courageous men in my Nanyang Chinese lineage.

Although he is just a weak young man, he is still a man who is upright and upright. Today, Hu can fight side by side with you. Even if he dies in battle, it will be a great blessing in life.

You have also seen us use these two weapons and use them for self-defense.

But be careful, there are only 7 bullets in the pistol, remember to save one when the time comes; before falling into the hands of the natives, give yourself a shot to avoid suffering~"

After finishing speaking, Hu Biao shouted again: "

Cross, send everything that happened in Surabaya City today in clear telegrams.

Let the people of the world see what kind of ugliness the Dutch people, the Daqing court, and the Javanese monkeys are like, and what heinous crimes they have committed.

How can I, a boy from the Han family, be so upright~"

Then, under the gazes of many embarrassed Chinese Americans in the First Security Zone, Hu Biao turned around and walked toward the outside of the barricade, officially taking the lead.

A little behind, the imperial concubine and other members of the team followed one by one.

Then, some young boys who, despite their efforts to straighten their chests, still looked quite thin, followed with sticks, knives and guns.

Only after Zheng Xiaozu and others walked out of the barricade.

A thick voice behind him shouted: "Damn it, I, Xie Fei, a grown man, can't compare to the heroes of Xuan Ge camp, how can I compare to a few young men?

When it comes to going to the Li family manor to save people, count me in. "

Amidst such a sound, a stout man picked up a stick at hand and strode towards the two dozen figures in front of him.

Just after seeing this person's appearance, Lao Ping, a newbie, almost stared out of his eyes.

Because this person was the one who didn't line up when he entered the safe zone in the morning and had his gun butt smashed several times. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, he actually learned his shame and became brave.

But soon after, Lao Ping realized that something even more surprising to him had not happened yet.

Because after the man who called himself Xie Fei shouted and chased after him, there were hundreds of other men who followed him, either cursing or not saying a word.

After seeing such a scene, Lao Ping breathed a long sigh of relief.

Lao Ping, who was originally very aggrieved that so many adult men didn't show up after Hu Biao opened his mouth, suddenly felt relieved.

As for the other rookie in the first safe zone, Mr. Masaharu, Lao Ma, had a different idea.

He looked at many Chinese adult men. Although they did not follow them to fight out, they all had their heads lowered and expressions of shame on their faces.

Suddenly my mind moved and I realized one thing clearly:

These people can still be rescued, but only if they let him, Lao Ping, give full play to his strengths as a teacher.

In this way, Hu Biao and his entourage were all added together, a total of 136 people, and began to support the Li family manor in the west of the city.

This is the first time Xu has seen so many people fighting in the safe zone.

The natives who gathered outside were a little confused and did not dare to come forward to fight. The first mile or two of Hu Biao's journey was actually quite smooth.

Compared with the actions of everyone in the first safe zone, the veterans in the other two safe zones.

After receiving the telegram, they were about three minutes late, and each sent a team to the Li family manor in the west of the city to support them all the way.

Their strength was also between a hundred men, and their initial progress was relatively smooth.

It was just when the above three groups of troops were advancing towards the Li family manor in the west of the city.

Unknown to the location of the port, the boiler pressure was already sufficient. The Dutch fleet, which was putting away its anchor amid the smoke from the chimney, suddenly received a string of semaphores from the fort:

There is an unknown fleet on the sea that is approaching quickly. It seems to be an enemy rather than a friend.

Immediately, the commander of the Dutch fleet, Navy Captain Thomas, immediately picked up a telescope and looked at the sea outside the port.

When they saw the incoming fleet clearly, they turned out to be three armored warships.

The key is that the main gun has taken off its gun jacket, and after the thick muzzle is pointed high to this side, it is basically certain that these people have bad intentions.

He no longer cared about Governor Vic, who had asked them to move the berth; once he received the order from the Governor's Palace, he immediately opened fire on the city.

The two old-fashioned ironclad ships in the fleet were the main force, together with several small boats like small gunboats.

Under the cover of the forts in the port, a battle formation was urgently launched.

On land, there was a light infantry battalion and a grenadier battalion from the Dutch colonial governor's palace, plus 300 armed patrols.

Almost 1,300 people with loaded guns and live ammunition have already set off from the military camp for almost ten minutes.

Mainly because Governor Vic believed that it was time for them to start harvesting everything; so under his order, a group of Dutch people also joined the turmoil...

******

"Quick, quick, quick, run away~" Hu Biao shouted loudly at the team behind him, waving a Thompson submachine gun in his hand.

His tone was filled with indescribable anxiety.

While Hu Biao was shouting loudly, the imperial concubine, Windmill, Warehouse Manager, Erpang, Big Fish, Shadow Qi and others looked around with red eyes.

He held his weapon in his hand, always ready for fire.

In fact, at this time, the veterans of the team, based on their keen battlefield intuition, have already felt that something is wrong.

Because after all, they had not received any strong sniper attacks from the natives in the ten minutes since they had left the first safety zone.

As they continued to advance, the number of natives they encountered along the way became smaller and smaller.

They didn't think that those ferocious natives were so easily planning to let a group of Chinese people go home to eat and sleep; those people were like bloody animals, and today was destined to be a fight to the death between the two sides.

Therefore, something must have happened that they didn't know about.

But at this moment, if they wanted to stop or send someone to investigate and find out what the accident was before moving on, they couldn't do it.

First, as long as they pay a little attention to the blood-red number in their minds, they will find that it will soon grow to four hundred people.

It can be said that the rate of growth is already getting faster and faster.

Secondly, just two minutes ago, they rushed into a neighborhood; at the moment they rushed in, countless people cursed "God damn Javanese monkeys~"

Some people even had bloodshot eyes at that time.

Because under the eaves, on cast iron lamps, and on trees on both sides of the narrow street, there were thirty or forty corpses of Chinese compatriots hanging.

There are men, women, old and young among them. It seems that they are a group of Chinese people who fled here. Unfortunately, they were brutally murdered by the natives.

Each of these people suffered inhuman torture before death, so that Hu Biao and others would not tremble with heartache if they took just one look at them.

Let me ask you, after seeing such a tragedy, and then think that if the Li family manor is attacked by the natives, such a tragedy will happen dozens or hundreds of times.

How can they convince themselves to stop and take a look?

Of course not, it can only be done in the spirit of no matter what conspiracy lies ahead and what kind of swords and mountains of fire there are, we must bite the bullet and rush forward.

After rushing forward for more than a minute, we arrived at an intersection.

The second fat man in the lead saw a group of people appearing on the right side. He was so excited that he immediately wanted to call a shuttle of bullets over.

Fortunately, before pulling the trigger, he saw clearly that the people on the opposite side were actually the people in the second and third safety zones. It was Yu Hanfeng and the singer who took the lead, and they stopped firing.

It turned out that on the way here, the teams from the two safe zones had already merged before them.

Later, when the support teams from the three safety zones met together at this intersection, the number of team members immediately reached seventeen.

The number of other combatants composed of Chinese Americans exceeded 320. It's a pity that these people only have more than 30 old-fashioned rifles from the Dutch in their hands, and the average bullets are no more than five rounds.

In any case, Hu Biao and others' strength has greatly increased.

The team and others, who were originally anxious, now feel a little calmer.

But after moving forward for three minutes, the leading team, Ye Bu Singer and Yu Hanfeng, turned a corner again and saw a scene in front of them that almost made them crazy.

At the other end of the street ahead, thousands of Dutch people were trotting towards this side.

There were even two 70mm-caliber bronze cannons pulled by war horses in their team; seeing such a movement, a thought arose in their minds at the same time:

Damn it! It’s over, is there still time to save the Li family manor in the west of the city...

Unfortunately, it seems that there is no chance to save the Li family's manor in the west of the city; even Hu Biao and his team of more than 300 people, how many people can retreat to the safe zone alive.

Or maybe I still have no confidence in whether I can hold on to the safe zone.

By the way, both sides were obviously caught off guard by each other's arrival.

Relying on faster reaction speed and richer combat experience, Yu Hanfeng and Singer were the first to react.

But he shouted in his mouth: "Old Hu, there's something wrong~"

After that, they leveled the muzzles of their guns, but did not fire immediately.

Mainly because they still have the last trace of fantasy in their hearts; the fantasy that after too many people have died today, these Dutch people are finally willing to come out and clean up the mess.

Facts have proved that the two of them thought too well about the humanity of these colonists.

A second later, a high-pitched voice sounded from the opposite side; because it was in Dutch, the two of them couldn't understand what the grandson was shouting.

But a Dutch company rushed in front, and hundreds of people opened fire at the two of them with rifles in their hands, letting the dense bullets come over.

Relying on their agility, Yu Hanfeng and the singer hid in the street corners in a flexible roll without suffering any injuries.

Just like Hu Biao and others who hurried over after hearing the warning from behind.

A heart, however, could not help but fall rapidly towards the endless abyss.

Because they understood that judging from the performance of these Dutch people, it was quite difficult to deal with the natives before, and now there were these fully armed opponents.

Such a desperate situation is simply despairing.

Of course, surrendering without mercy is never the style of Xuange Camp.

After Yu Hanfeng and the singer climbed up from the ground, they had to hold the Thompson submachine guns in their hands and hold fire; even if they died in the battle, they would open a gap for the team to rush through these Dutch people.

It's just that the current situation on the entire Surabaya battlefield is changing at such a speed that it's overwhelming.

Before they could take action, several gunshots could be heard ringing in their ears.

With such a huge movement, it must be a 210 mm or above caliber cannon firing to cause such a movement.

Suddenly, their low spirits suddenly improved.

Because the sound of these cannons meant that the Xuange Camp fleet, which they had been waiting for for a long time, finally arrived at this critical moment.

In the huge surprise, Hu Biao, the imperial concubine, the warehouse manager and others also rushed forward.

With a few Chinese gunmen, they kept shooting at the Dutchmen; not hoping to defeat the opponent, but hoping to block the opponent's attack, and to make detours and outflanks.

But the more they fought, the more they felt something was wrong.

Because judging from the sound of the cannons, the Xuange Camp fleet did not seem to have much of an upper hand; at least there was no way to deal with the Dutch fleet and coastal defense forces in a short period of time.

As for the more specific situation, they currently know nothing at all.

The only thing they knew was that the number of bullets they carried decreased rapidly during the exchange of fire, and they could not last much longer.

What's even more terrible is that the two bronze field guns in the Dutch team were already deployed on the spot; before one of them opened fire, the gunner who planned to pull the gun rope was shot in the head by a warehouse manager from a distance, which was regarded as temporary. Suppress it.

But the sound of 'boom~' still sounded. It was another bronze cannon, which greeted an anti-personnel grenade.

Fortunately, this shell hit the load-bearing pillar of a house, breaking the thick pillar directly into two pieces.

A large number of bricks and tiles fell instantly, directly burying Hu Biao who was hiding behind the load-bearing pillar at the time.

If it were normal times, Hu Biao would not have reacted so slowly; the key is that in the previous battle, the consumption on him was too great.

Up to now, even if the oil is not exhausted, it can only be said that it is just trying to hold on.

After seeing this scene and shouting "Old Hu", the imperial concubine, who was also exhausted, didn't know where she got the strength from.

He rushed up like crazy, with the bullets whizzing above his head and around him, he started to dig through the masonry with his hands.

Upon seeing this, Big Fish, Lao She and others no longer cared about saving bullets, and opened fire crazily with their guns to provide fire support for the imperial concubine's actions.

After a while, the imperial concubine pulled her dog man out of it; after confirming that he was still alive, she immediately hugged him tightly.

It showed that this girl was so excited that she was extremely excited.

After coughing loudly a few times and spitting out a mouthful of sand, Hu Biao slowly woke up.

Just looking at his weak appearance, he must have been hit so hard just now that it would be difficult to even move for a while, let alone command the battle.

In such a difficult situation, even with the tenacity of everyone's battle-hardened nerves, they still felt a huge physical and despair.

It's just that with fighting instinct and a sense of unwillingness in my heart, I continue to grit my teeth and persevere.

Finally, after another cannonball flew, the windmill was blown away.

The second fat man, who urgently lay down to avoid the explosion shock wave and shrapnel, rolled several times and came to the windmill lying on the ground without even touching his teammate's breath.

Just by seeing a face that had been hit by multiple fragments and completely blurred, I knew that this teammate was completely hopeless.

In inexplicable grief and anger, this greasy man.

After shouting "Holland devils, I'm so fucking stupid", he leveled the muzzle of his gun and greeted a group of Dutchmen who were fighting and rushing more than 30 meters away. past.

In the blink of an eye, six of the seven Dutchmen were knocked down.

But after moving the muzzle of the gun and greeting the remaining person, Er Pang only heard the sound of the impact of an empty gun, resounding in the barrel of the gun.

It turned out that the last drum on his body was also used up at this time.

He let go of the Thompson submachine gun, pulled out the pistol, and shot the remaining person in the chest with one shot; but Erpang sadly knew that they really couldn't hold on much longer after they didn't even have many bullets for the pistol.

The imperial concubine even pulled out a signal gun from Hu Biao's waist.

It fired into the air with a 'pop~' sound.

In their previous agreement with Yang Dongli, this thing only had one meaning: to fire all the guns here immediately~

At the same time, with a huge "click", the door of the Li family manor, which had been hit countless times, collapsed.

With expressions of ecstasy on their faces, a flood of natives rushed in.

In contrast, all the Chinese people hiding inside let out desperate wails in their hearts.

In such a large manor, only in the Mazu temple on one side, the statue of Mazu still smiles so kindly and peacefully.

Still at the same time, the cross sent out everything that happened today in a "tick tock" message.

Cable codes and messages are naturally cold and dead things; but after they are seen by others, especially some Qing people who still have consciences.

Seeing that every word above seems to be filled with blood and tears.

Tan Fusheng and others asked for orders outside the general office, hoping that the court could deal with the Sishui City matter quickly. Many people were filled with grief and anger on the spot and couldn't help but burst into tears.

The leader, Tan Fusheng, was so angry that he vomited a mouthful of blood and slowly fell down...
