Chapter 119: The Fujian Rebellion (6)
A long time ago, Yushan Academy studied how to deal with the Dutch plate armor.
This kind of plate armor has a very high defensive power, especially when faced with feather arrows, crossbow arrows, and lead bullets.
Especially when combined with a tall iron shield, as long as the iron shields are surrounded and the ax guns are pointed outward, a mobile steel fortress can be quickly formed.
This kind of steel fortress combined with the Dutch's bull-like body can break through the enemy's military formation as easily as tearing through paper.
The only bad thing is when facing artillery.
If you are hit by an artillery shell, a group of people will basically die.
There naturally won’t be too many artillery pieces on Yuweng Island. Even if there were, they had been destroyed by the ship’s artillery yesterday.
Therefore, after encountering the enemy attack, the Dutch immediately formed a turtle-like shield formation, preparing to break through the ambush area and then fight against the pirates on the island.
Yushan Academy has done a lot of research on this kind of shield formation.
So, after Han Lingshan approached the shield array, he threw a grenade through the gap in the shield.
Things like grenades are very unfamiliar to the Dutch, so the grenades had enough time to explode in the shield formation. At the same time, the veteran Yushan thieves with exquisite techniques also took action. Lei was thrown into the shield formation.
After one after another explosions, the shield array fell apart. Although the fragments on the grenade may not be able to penetrate the plate armor, they will form a metal storm in the small space.
After jumping back and forth on the shield, the fragments can always find the weak points of the plate armor's defense and burrow into the enemy's flesh.
Coupled with the sound damage caused by the grenade explosion, the Dutch soldiers covered their ears and staggered in the open space, facing the dense rain of bullets.
The five hundred people in Hanlingshan opened fire immediately after the grenade exploded. After shooting, they rushed towards the Dutch soldiers brandishing various weapons.
Halfway through the charge, dense grenades were thrown out again, and the sound of explosions enveloped the battlefield.
Last night, five hundred people could only get two red-haired ghosts to kill. Today is different. One for each person is more than enough.
Except for some tough Dutch officers who were still able to stagger into the battle, the rest of the Dutch either fell to the ground or ran around like headless flies.
The ax guns they threw on the ground became the best weapon against the plate armor on their bodies.
The battle ended much earlier than Han Lingshan expected.
In the first moment, he got more than 20 pieces of plate armor, put them on his own people, carried blunderbuss, axes and guns, and walked neatly to the coast, where, The Dutch left a small party to guard the camp and supplies.
Han Lingshan could speak fluent Germanic as early as when he was in Yushan, and Dutch was just derived from Germanic.Coming from a local dialect, it was not strange for him to take more than ten days to master Dutch. At the same time, this speed was not conspicuous in Yushan.
So, when Han Lingshan walked out of the coconut grove with a group of people wearing Dutch plate armor and greeted them in Dutch, the team guarding the camp completely let down their guard.
Some curious Dutch people asked very fast whether the explosion just now had killed those yellow-skinned savages.
Han Lingshan said some nonsense that even he himself did not believe. He approached these people and surrounded them. Then, his dagger pierced the Dutch officer who was talking to him. gaps in the armor.
His dagger stabbed very systematically, which could make the Dutch officer lose all resistance, but he would not die.
When the other Dutch breathed their last breath, Han Lingshan began to interrogate the four Dutch who had been left behind to ask for confessions.
He kept asking, kept asking, until all four people had the same answer, then he killed them, and Han Lingshan started to wave the signal flag left by the Dutch on the shore according to his confession. .
As a result, another group of Dutch reinforcements disembarked from the big ship in small wooden boats and came ashore to provide support.
The Dutch on the shore were roasting pigs, and the aroma of food filled the air. The sailors who specially transported Dutch soldiers ashore also came ashore to prepare for some rare delicacies.
They did not notice that the Dutch soldiers who were busy around were approaching them.
After interrogating the sailor again, Han Lingshan felt that he should have a greater pursuit.
So, in the evening, he took a group of Dutch warriors who had successfully eliminated the Chen Liu pirates and set sail towards the big ship.
When the Dutch on the armed merchant ship saw the shiploads of their own people returning victoriously, they welcomed them with open arms. However, after these people got on the ship, they turned into yellow-skinned pirates.
Van Havel is one of the few Dutchmen with a surname, and naturally he is the leader of these two armed merchant ships.
After being captured, he tried his best to argue to the elegant Mingguo man that these captured people were already his property, and as long as the Mingguo man was willing, he could exchange these prisoners of war for a large sum of money.
The Ming man spoke politely, and sometimes he could even speak some beautiful poems in Latin. However, such an educated nobleman talked to her about the Dutch arrangements in the Far East, and He Languo's customs and customs led his men to drag the prisoners of war to the side of the ship, brutally slit their throats, and then throw them into the sea.
Even Javier’s beautiful maid did not escape the fate of being killed.
“So, sir, there are many things you don’t know. You don’t even know how vast the Ming Kingdom is. You don’t even know that the weakest thing in the Ming Kingdom is its navy. People began to pay attention to the ocean and began to treat itWhen the bravest subordinates are sent to the sea, whether they are Dutch, Spanish or British, they will become fish feed in this ocean. ”
Han Lingshan had no curiosity about the red-haired ghost. When he was in the academy, he once went to a cake shop in Yushan with a group of fat, thin and ugly ones just to mix a mouthful of honey with them. The beautiful red-haired man had been working together for half a year.
So, he took a sip of the coffee that Javier presented to him, expressed his gratitude, and then asked the Yushan old thieves to drag this guy down to bleed him. , and then feed the fish.
With two armed merchant ships and three Fu ships, Han Lingshan decided to go to Xiamen again.
Bombard Xiamen with the artillery of the armed merchant ships. After playing the role of knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger, he immediately ordered people to take the five ships to find Han Xiufen. He was a little tired and prepared to go back to Yushan to rest for a while.
Facts proved that his idea was true. It was very immature.
So he took the fleet to bombard all the ports along the Fujian coast.
Finally, he quietly disembarked in Guangzhou and witnessed it with his own eyes. It showed the scene of two armed merchant ships bombarding Guangzhou Port.
As soon as the cannons were fired, Guangzhou Port was in a panic. The harbor was full of merchant ships that were shot to pieces by artillery, causing heavy losses.
p>At this point, Fujian is in chaos
And the two armed merchant ships and three lucky ships set sail with the remaining Chaozhou patrols of less than 600 people who had been trained so hard by Han Lingshan! Went to Malacca.
I returned to Han Lingshan alone, feeling refreshed
Except for having a small bag of coffee beans on my back as a gift from Yun Zhao. In addition, he suddenly found that he didn't have a penny in his pocket.
However, this did not stop him. Although there were at least six trading houses in Guanzhong in Guangzhou Port, as long as he took his own. Yin Xin could withdraw the money he needed from any business bank.
He originally wanted to do this.
However, on the way to the business bank, he suddenly saw it. There was a trading firm that was recruiting clerks who could travel to Guanzhong.
So, Han Lingshan walked into the firm without hesitation and said in authentic Guanzhong dialect: "I can be the shopkeeper." Your buddy? "
A charming woman opened the door and walked out. She looked Han Lingshan up and down, her eyes lit up and she said, "Are you from Guanzhong? "
Han Lingshan said with a smile: "The younger one is from Chang'an County, Guanzhong. "
The woman said: "Are you familiar with the way to Guanzhong? "
Han Lingshan smiled honestly: "Don't forget the way home. "
"Can you drive a carriage? ”
“A skill I have learned since I was a child. ”
“Okay, I’ll take you in. The salary is 500 yuan a month, including food and accommodation.” ”
Han Lingshan nodded repeatedly and said: “Very good, very good. If you have any work, give it to me now. Don’t delay the work.” ”
The enchanting woman smiled happily and raised her headHe patted Han Lingshan's strong chest with his hand and said, "You are a great young man. Arrange your accommodation first, and we will leave the day after tomorrow!"
As he spoke, he waved to Han Lingshan and followed her to the back. .
Looking at the woman's round buttocks and waist like a water snake, Han Lingshan licked his lips and said to himself: "Isn't it going to be so unlucky this time?"
Yuweng Island The stench is overwhelming!
Shi Lang carefully searched and moved forward on the island. The smell of corpses in front became stronger and stronger. After passing through a coconut grove, he was stunned by the horrific scene in front of him.
Behind the coconut grove is a puddle the size of two or three acres of land. Now, this puddle is almost covered by flies and has turned into a squirming black velvet.
The stench was so bad that even though Shi Lang had covered his mouth and nose with a cloth towel, he still felt dizzy. After throwing a stone on the black velvet cloth, he heard a "boom" and the flies Dark clouds jumped up into the sky, revealing the true face of the puddle.
Countless corpses were floating in the puddles. The shallow water was full of maggots, shaking in dense circles and drilling in and out of the rotting corpses.
Some corpses were still wearing leather armor that was soaked in water, and some were wearing tattered plate armor.
There are people from the Ming Dynasty, but more of them are Dutch.
Shi Lang vomited violently and stumbled out of the coconut grove. He was about to hold on to the coconut tree and continue to vomit for a while. A string of viscous light yellow liquid dripped on his hand. He looked up. , a mouthful of dirt spurted out from his mouth like an arrow, and above his head, more rotting corpses hung...
The clear sea water kissed the beach, and Shi Lang lay on the beach and kept pouring Seawater was sucked into his mouth and then spit out. No matter how he gargled with saltwater, the stench between his mouth and nose seemed to always be there.
A hermit crab fled in a hurry. Shi Lang stared blankly at the hermit crab running around on the beach without a house on its back. Out of habit, he looked down at the place where the hermit crab escaped.
The waves took away the sea sand, revealing a white and fresh skeleton.
Another hermit crab emerged from the skull's eye socket and fled in panic.
This time, the disgust in Shi Lang's chest disappeared.
He looked at the vast sea and murmured to himself: "Devil, Demon, what are you going to do?"
The sea naturally couldn't answer him, it just sent waves to kiss him. toes...
"If you don't kill me, are you just going to use my mouth to promote your strength?"
