Nanming: I can build wonders

As far as the eye can see, the fields are full of Yin people killed by the Spanish army. Indistinctly, women's wailing came from the village.

When Chen Shichang shifted the camera to the middle of the village entrance, he suddenly found a strong man from Yin tied to a big tree, and Spanish soldiers were scalping him alive with a knife.

However, the matter of scalping may be the result of the joint efforts of both parties.

Because the Spaniards did not have this custom.

The custom of scalping is common in American Indian culture, especially in North American Indian culture during the Columbus era.

The Indians use a sharp knife to cut off the scalp ring around the ear, which is very convenient and quick.

The Indians scalped mainly to use the peeled scalp for sacrifices. The Indians believed that the scalp was closely related to a person's soul, and the peeled scalp represented that they had killed the enemy.

The scalp of the enemy can be used to appease the resentment of the dead relatives. The peeled scalp is also the best example of showing the courage and strength of the warrior, which is roughly the same as the headhunting custom of the Gaoshan people in Dongning Island.

Before the whites landed in America, the custom of skinning people existed widely in various tribal wars.

When the whites came to America, because the whites continued to occupy the land of the Indians, expelled and wiped out the Indians, the Indians had new targets for scalping.

So in many Western movies, we can often see Indians scalping white people.

In the same way, white people fight poison with poison, if you cut it, I will cut it too!
The Spanish colonists set the scalp of the Indians as a bounty of 12 Spanish silver dollars for the scalp of male Indians over the age of 130, and paid a reward of 54 Spanish silver dollars for the scalp of each Indian woman.

The white immigrants at the pioneering front believed that whoever killed more Indians became a source of pride and a proof of bravery, and believed that Indian corpses were good fertilizer.

But what they are harvesting now are the civilized Yin people, which are different from the Indians before!

"Damn it!"

Yin Wei, the father-in-law next to Chen Shichang, put down his binoculars and dared not look at it, it was too cruel.

Chen Shichang said: "Father-in-law, old Bian, I will go south immediately to seize the Hongmaoyi's boat from the shore. You wait for me to go, and do it at night!"

Yin Wei gritted his teeth, "Okay, I will destroy these red-haired barbarians!"

In the village, the Spaniards slaughtered the deer and turkeys raised by the villagers, lit a bonfire, and roasted the meat.

At this time, officer Louis cut off a piece of meat with a knife and stuffed it into his mouth to chew. He glanced at the subordinate who was insulting the woman and showed a smile on his face.

The adjutant next to him asked him, "Sir, I feel that the further inland I go, the more different these Indians feel!"

"Boy, what are you thinking, what's the difference, there is no difference in killing."

Officer Louis frowned. Is this kid too idle? He started thinking wildly again.

"Sir, I think the closer we are to the west, the more these Indians look like people in the civilized world. Should we change our approach?"

"Boy, I think you should change your mind. I think the more civilized it is, the more interesting it is. Haven't you noticed that the clothes worn by the Indian women in this village are getting better and better?"

While the two were arguing, a sergeant came over, sat down next to Louis, and asked, "Sir, we have destroyed many villages in a row, and now the governor has given us the tasks of spreading the plague and detecting intelligence. Done, I think we should go back to Mexico, the soldiers miss Mexico."

Louis obviously didn't have enough fun. He glanced at the sergeant and frowned, "I miss Mexico. I can see from your expression that we are in danger. What can those natives be afraid of?"

The sergeant didn't speak, but the adjutant said, "Sir, these villages are different from the natives in other areas. There is only one possibility for a long time. They are villages ruled by Ming people. If there are Ming people, then we are in danger. Ming people have always been aggressive." Not afraid of death, we will definitely not be able to beat it with our hands!"

Officer Louis's expression became serious to the naked eye, playing for fun, and making trouble for trouble, Mingren can't joke.

With the ability of the natives, it is impossible to build such a village, and the Ming people are very likely to be nearby.

Judging from the architectural style and clothing style of these villages, they do have the characteristics of the Ming Dynasty.

"All right!"

Louis, who also participated in the Battle of Jinshan, agreed to the suggestion of his subordinates.

"After a night's rest, we will withdraw to Jinshan City and report the situation here to the governor, and then I will apply to return to Mexico."

"Anyway, the women in this village have a good taste, let's have another night!"

"Long live the officer!"

In the village, the Spanish soldiers ate meat, had fun, took turns to fight, and tortured several Yin girls until they were out of shape.

Old Bian and Yin Wei clenched their fists, they were still patient, waiting for the best opportunity.

They brought three hundred soldiers, a total of 250 Ming soldiers and fifty Yin soldiers.

They hid around the village, while Lao Bian, Yin Wei and several officers were discussing offensive tactics.

Old Bian took a wooden stick and scratched on the ground, "The red-haired barbarians are here. We touched them from all sides, and the grenadiers threw grenades directly among them, and then we all charged together!"

"We have less ammunition, and we use one less time. We only need to use grenades tonight, and we don't use rifles for the time being. Melee combat is enough to deal with them."

Yin Wei has never studied serious military science, and he only knows about fighting: Let's fight together!

So he listened humbly and did not speak the whole time.

Several Daming officers nodded, "Of order! We all understand!"

Among these officers, there are two miner brothers who participated in the battle to defend Jinshan.

Both of them got the post of commander of the Jinshan Army (not formally appointed). With their merits, they will definitely be officially appointed by the imperial court and awarded the rank of second lieutenant.

Old Bian continued to give instructions: "These red-haired barbarian soldiers are well-equipped, and the plate armor on their bodies is not easy to break through. After everyone rushes up, a group of three, one person will contain the front, don't fight recklessly, and the other two brothers will sneak attack from the flanks. , according to the gaps in the plate armor and the place where there is no plate armor!"

"Of course, in the middle of the night, it is estimated that most of them are not wearing armor."

After the discussion, three hundred soldiers quietly went to the village.

Under the night, the colonists who had vented their animal desires picked up their muskets and fired a few shots at the Yin woman who had been insulted.

Highlight one ruthlessness, because they will evacuate tomorrow morning, they will not take these natives away, that will waste food.

If their lives were spared, wouldn't they put themselves in a dangerous situation if they went to the wise to inform them.

So kill them all.

Bang bang bang!
The slaughter continued.
