Win the Ding 1617

As a captain of the Dutch East India Company, Bedel, who was in charge of guarding the city of Zeelandia, was very relaxed.

Originally, this fortress was the headquarters of the Dutch East India Company's chief executive, and it was not his turn to be the master here. However, not long ago, the company headquarters sent a new chief executive, John van der Bauer. Come on, Putmans, as the predecessor, naturally has to hand over to the succeeding official.Just at this time, Shou Han led the Nanzhong Army fleet to attack, and Putmans had to stay in Chixian City on Dayuan Island to guard it, and at the same time suppressed the tens of thousands of reclamators from the Zhangquan area.

Seeing the warships covering almost the entire ocean surface spraying flames and cannons towards Zeelandia City from time to time, Captain Bader couldn't help but sneer.

"Stupid Orientals! Don't you know that the range of the cannons on the ship can't reach the city of Zeelandia?" Holding the wine glass in his hand, he watched the rare fireworks show in his mouth.

Although the artillery on the ship is huge in number, it can only splash water jets and sand grains one after another on the beach and the tide line.

"Okay! Order the soldiers to step up their duties tonight, and don't let the Easterners sneak up!" He proudly raised his neck and drank the barley wine in his hand.

However, things in the world often backfire.

When Captain Bader was happily enjoying the taste of being in charge of the city of Zeelandia, and while he was churning in his bedroom with an extremely hot Atayal girl in his arms, he put down more than ten ships from the Three-Headed Tiger on the sea. Under the cover of the sound of the waves, the boat quietly approached Yi Kunshen Island.

The same small boats attacked the nearby islands such as Er Kunshen on the main battleships such as the Victory and the Qilin. [

When the sun jumped out from the junction between the sea and the skyline, the East India Company soldiers who served as guards at the top of Zeelandia City rubbed their astringent eyes. They could hardly believe it. The scene before my eyes:

On the roofs of rows of houses in Anping Town, not far from the east of Zeelandia City.Fluttering in the morning wind were clearly the sun and moon flag of Daming, the Li Zishuai flag of Li Shouhan, and the iron-blooded [-]-star army flag of the South Central Army!

"You bastards! You must be slacking off to sleep at night!" Captain Bader, who got the news from the sergeant, waved his command knife and yelled at the group of black soldiers who were on duty at night, venting his timidity and fear come out.

Outside Anping Town, more than a dozen cannons erected on the fort built with sandbags can easily pour the cannons to the top of Zeelandia City!

"One, two, three, four... fourteen!"

Bedell's hand holding the binoculars became a little white due to the force.There are fifteen cannons weighing [-] jin on the city of Zeelandia. However, these cannons either face east or west, and they are all fixed on the fort.Can't move at will.These cannons to the east were a mortal danger to him.

"fire!"

The commander of the artillery team outside Anping Town waved the red flag, and the gunners who had been busy all night beside the artillery quickly ignited the fuse with the matchlocks in their hands. Go, and at the same time, the huge recoil force moves the gun carriage and drives the gun body to retreat!

"boom!"

Several twelve-pound cannons smashed heavily on the city wall made of Zhelan!Captain Bader could almost feel the trembling of the city wall under his feet.Broken bricks and stones flew in all directions.

"Clean the barrel!"

The gunners quickly returned the cannon to its original position, and the observer stepped forward to measure the shooting data again, and the aimer re-adjusted the elevation angle and dense position according to these data, and the one responsible for cleaning the gun bore held a long gun. A wool brush, dipped in vegetable oil, cleaned the gun bore.The loader quickly loaded the ammunition package and the cannon, and the whole process worked well like a precision machine.After each person has completed a series of actions according to the requirements of the "exercise" code.A twelve-pound artillery has completed all preparations before shooting, and can continue firing only after an order is given.

"fire!"

The target of this round of artillery is no longer the waist of the city wall, but the top of the city wall is slightly lower.More than a dozen cannons landed on the eastern wall of Zeelandia City, and the splashed bricks and stones became non-prefabricated fragments, flying randomly in all directions on the top of the city, smashing them as they flew. All objects on the trajectory, or flying into these objects, whether it is a wall or a beam, or a human body.

Captain Bedell saw a black soldier who was less than five steps away from him and was hit on the head by a piece of broken stone flying from nowhere.The entire skull was blown out abruptly, and the scarlet blood and white brains were sprayed on his beautiful woolen uniform, making one unable to bear the urge to vomit. [

For many years, it has been the Dutch who used their firearms to abuse others, but today it is the turn of others to use firearms to abuse themselves.How can this be accepted by Captain Bedell?Ever since he came to the East, he always thought that the spices, tea, raw silk, silk and satin produced in this rich land should belong to the Europa people.Those cowardly orientals can only become worker ants that create wealth for the East India Company!Although there was news of the defeat of the Luowan Naval War Company's fleet before, he stubbornly believed that it was because the Easterners relied on their human resources to take advantage of it by using seas of fire and ships.But today these orientals taught him a solid lesson in using cannons!

"Boys! Good fight! Keep fighting!"

There was a burst of cheers from behind the position where the artillery team was placed, which made the artillerymen rejuvenated again, and the movements of their hands couldn't help being a little faster.The series of actions of cleaning, loading, and resetting the artillery are done like flowing water.

After the guns were loaded, the guns adjusted their aim again. With the wave of the red flag in the commander's hand and the sound of the command, the gunner ignited the fuse on the fire door. In an instant, the fourteen guns made another series of loud noises, and the muzzles vacated. Huge flames and smoke, fourteen hot solid iron balls roared and went straight to the city wall, as if the city wall was their lover.

Because the gunner adjusted the angle of elevation slightly higher, several cannons went straight to the tower of Zeelandia City. A corner of the brick and wood tower was hit by a cannon, and there was a loud clatter.The group of black soldiers at the head of the horrified city, which the Han residents called Wugui soldiers, trembled with their heads in their arms. Captain Bedell looked intently, and the smoke cleared, and a large part of the city tower had collapsed.

Seeing that the artillery fire of the Nanzhong Army has fired three rounds, according to general practice.At this time, the shooting will be stopped for a period of time to allow the already heated barrel to cool down. Captain Bedell decided to check the casualties and losses during this period of time.

However, he didn't wait for him to straighten up.Another loud noise came from under the city.

The fourth round of shelling by the South China Army began.

Captain Bader had no choice but to cling to the ground of the city wall like that group of humble black ghost soldiers to avoid the huge damage caused by the artillery.

Finally, the shelling temporarily came to an end.

"Damn it!" He jumped up and didn't care to tidy up his military appearance. "Why don't you fire back?! Why don't you use our cannon to teach them a lesson!"

"Captain, don't rush to shout. Our cannons are fixed on the four corners of the turrets. Unless you are Zeus, or you have the power of Poseidon and can move those giants quickly, otherwise, we will just fire More guns are also helpful. On the contrary, they may waste the "powder" in vain and attract the enemy's firepower!" An officer of the artillery sneered at his accusation, ridiculing his layman's behavior in his words.

"That's right! If you really have the courage of a knight, then go out of the city, drive the enemy into the sea, defeat these Chinese, just like the Spaniards conquered the Inca Empire, and create a miracle!"

Captain Thomas Bedell has always been arrogant and domineering in the Dutch garrison of the generals, and his popularity is extremely poor.but.From the words of his colleagues and subordinates, he keenly grasped an opportunity that might create a miracle.

"Assemble the troops!"

He was going to lead [-] Dutch soldiers, [-] black soldiers, and [-] auxiliary native Christian soldiers in Zeelandia to go out of the city to destroy the artillery positions of the South Central Army.If possible, drive these damned orientals out of the sea!

"Captain! Is this possible?!"

"Those Easterners only have fierce artillery fire, but they don't have infantry firearms comparable to our Dutch muskets. Even if they have, our hand-to-hand assault will kill them!"

"Soldiers! Believe me! As long as you fire a volley of guns, the Chinese soldiers will run for their lives and fall apart! Victory belongs to Christians!"

It should be said that Captain Bader's idea is not desirable. The Ming army in this era is indeed like this. Either they are not equipped with low-cost firearms, or they dare not fight hand-to-hand and face the enemy's swords and guns. , suddenly shouted, turned and fled.

It's a pity that he had no contact with the land battalion of the South Central Army. From the day it was established, this army was equipped with a large number of firearms, and it raised hand-to-hand combat to an unprecedented level.As a result, it is often the recruits who use firearms in the battalion, the more experienced soldiers who use spears, and the most experienced soldiers who use swords and shields.

"The red-haired barbarian came out?!"

Zhang Xiaohu, who set up his temporary headquarters in Tianhou Palace in Anping Town, was quite pleasantly surprised, "This method really works!" He patted the altar in front of the statue of Tianhou Empress with all his might, shaking the bowls and plates on which offerings were placed. Jingle.

Only [-]-pound guns were placed in the shooting blind spot of the Zeelandia Fortress to bombard the city wall, instead of using the more powerful siege guns and mortars to attack the city. This tactic is given by Shi Lang. Proposed by Zhang Xiaohu.Since this kid was sent by the defenders to the army to practice and serve, Zhang Xiaohu could only hold his nose and accept his proposal, but he didn't think that after five rounds of shelling, the Dutch defenders in Zeelandia would really I can't bear my temper, and I'm going out of the city to fight in the field!

"My lord, shall we also send troops to fight?!"

Huang Wen, the battalion officer of the right rear battalion of the Xuanwu Camp, couldn't help himself a little. He saw other battalion leaders going around for conquests all these years, but the Xuanwu Camp could only move around with the fleet. Even less, the same battalion officers, when they meet each other, they always feel that they are three points shorter than others!

"He's here for a visit, isn't it impolite for us not to greet him?!" Zhang Xiaohu grinned grimly for a while, then looked Huang Wen up and down, "Old Huang, you were also the first group of people who followed me to join the lord, right?" ?!"

Huang Wen blushed, "Exactly!"

The group of pirates who were captured together with Zhang Xiaohu back then.After years of operation, they have also become the backbone of the South China Army and officers at all levels. If they don't mention it, many people have forgotten their origin and origin.

"Can the 800 people in your battalion deal with the 1000 people from Hongmaoyi?! Don't embarrass our old brothers!"

There is a saying that sending generals is not as good as mobilizing generals.As soon as Zhang Xiaohu said this, Huang Wen's face turned red immediately, "Please don't worry, my lord! I only take 800 people out to meet the enemy, and I don't want any artillery support! I only use muskets and knives to give these reds "Mao Yi and the black ghost soldiers teach a lesson, let them know that the pot is made of iron!"

Bader divided his men into two teams.Each team is led by the native auxiliary soldiers who believed in Christianity, followed by the black ghost soldiers holding muskets, and the Dutch troops are behind the black ghost soldiers.Two phalanxes consisting of 600 people, Dutch soldiers and black ghost soldiers in a row of 12, supervised the large number of native soldiers who had converted to Christianity pouring out of the city of Zeelandia, heading towards the The artillery positions of the South China Army are coming!

Watching the natives with broken hair and tattoos coming roaring and dancing.Huang Wen tried his best to calm down the soldiers under his command, "Brothers, it's trivial! They are just natives. We have dealt with them in Luzon, Manga, and Nanzhong. There is nothing new!"

The soldiers looked over carefully, and the group of natives in front of them seemed to be no different from those they had come into contact with before, except that they all wore a cross on their chests, and they all held the familiar funeral guns and guns in their hands. Extinct knife.

"Bah! How dare you compete with us with our knives and guns?! You don't know how to live or die!" In the queue, a young soldier with fluff just sprouting from his mouth spat hard on the ground.

"Array!"

Huang Wen's formation was still the one used by the South China Army. The firecrackers were arranged in three horizontal rows in front, the pikemen were in two columns on the two wings, and the sword and shield soldiers were behind the firecrackers and pikemen.There is only one horizontal line.However, the sword and shield soldiers of the Xuanwu Battalion are slightly different from the other battalions of the Lu Battalion in that they are all equipped with double-barreled short-fire guns that are only equipped by the navy as enhanced firepower.

Just as Huang Wen deployed his troops to meet the enemy, Guo Huaiyi was lying on the roof of a house called Cuo in Anping Town.Holding a monocular in his hand, he stared at the scene of the confrontation between the two armies without blinking.

"This group of red-haired ghosts actually let these savages who enjoy hunting heads take the lead. The Nanzhong Army will suffer a lot this time!"

Guo Huaiyi was a little gloating.

Seeing that the "chaotic" native team was about [-] steps away from me, they were stopped by the Dutch sergeant who led the team. There, the team was rectified and weapons were checked. A priest held a Bible in his hand and led the team. Qunshengfan chanted a prayer with words in his mouth, Huang Wen sneered, "If praying and chanting scriptures are effective, then wouldn't monks and Taoists be the enemy of the world?!"

"Attention everyone! Press up!"

The sharp copper whistle sounded over the ranks, and the soldiers of the right rear battalion of the Xuanwu Battalion put their arms on their shoulders, and marched towards the opponent's position with neat steps!

"This group of damned heretics! How dare you show off the phalanx in front of us! Beat the drums! Go up!" Captain Bader hadn't finished organizing the formation of the native troops, but saw the Nanzhong Army troops in the distance The "mighty" "mighty" pressed forward, although the formation was far smaller than his own in terms of numbers, but the momentum of going forward was incomparable to his messy team.He began to doubt that he left the support of the castle and went out to fight in the city. Was this decision wrong?

However, it was too late to withdraw now.The Nanzhong Army on the opposite side is only more than 150 steps away from him.With the order to retreat now, I am afraid that few of the natives will be able to retreat into the castle.Captain Bader gritted his teeth, and he secretly made a decision to let those filthy natives compete with these damn bright troops!Anyway, they are all oriental, so it doesn't matter how many of these natives die!It can just relieve some of the food pressure in the city of Zeelandia!Prepare for the next long-term persistence and wait for reinforcements!

In this regard, the Dutch are the same as the Japanese, another foreign force that occupied Taiwan in history. The Japanese pirates are even more ruthless. The so-called Takasago Volunteer Team went to the islands in the Pacific Ocean to face the aircraft and artillery of the US military.Young men are treated as consumables under artillery fire, while women are used as comfort women.

In short, it can be described in one word, cannon fodder.

Guo Huaiyi was lying on the roof, watching the distance between the two armies getting closer and closer, he seemed to be suppressed by the thicker and heavier murderous intent on the battlefield, and he felt breathless. I really want to jump off the roof and rush to the battlefield to slash and kill with knives and guns, so as to relieve this pressure.

"Stop moving forward!"

The Dutch sergeant who commanded the native soldiers in front gave an order that he would arrange the team for the last time at this position less than a hundred steps away from the South Central Army, so that those guys holding spears could line up as much as possible In a row, maximize the power of the spears and the formation, and rush out of the formation of the damned guys on the opposite side. Only when they disrupt their formation, will the nigger musketeers behind have a chance to shoot shooting.

However, the Nanzhong Army on the opposite side did not leave him this time and opportunity.

Still moving forward with firm steps! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point to vote and monthly pass. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users, please go to m to read.)
