"Fire!"

At the sound of an order, the musketeers behind Li Tao also opened fire one after another, directly killing more than a dozen Portuguese in front of him. 【Fengyun Reading Network. I don't know if it's luck or Li Tao's intention to let the other party go, the interpreter is not dead, he just watched all this with his ears roaring, how can he not know that this general who doesn't know where he came from is so bold and directly killed the foreigners in Portugal, isn't he afraid of the governor's punishment?

"Forward!"

After killing the foreigner, Li Tao didn't care, just a foreigner, if he died, he died, and it wasn't a big deal. Subsequently, the entire army entered the Macao Peninsula.

"I want to see how bold the foreigners here are to dare to resist the Heavenly Army!" Looking at the highest hill in the center of the peninsula, the shadowy buildings above, Li Tao's face was cold.

"Target, Kakiyama Governor's Mansion!"

At this time, in the governor's palace of Persimmon Hill in Macau, several of the most powerful people in the whole of Macau were drinking afternoon tea and chatting together.

The Governor of Macau, Masgar Luye, the Chief Priest of the Society of Jesuits, and the four major businessmen of the Macau Council, were chatting about the recent trade situation.

"Daming finally got the hang of it, and after opening the port of Guangzhou, the money I made this month tripled." One of the four businessmen said with a smile on his face, and then he felt a little painful, "It's that this tariff is a bit high, I can't help but pay for buying goods from Guangzhou, and I have to pay for selling inside. ”

"Haha, no matter how much you pay taxes, you can't compare to what you earn." Ma Shijialu also laughed and said, he has maintained a good relationship with Hong Chengchou, director of the Guangzhou Port Customs, and he has also made a lot of money, all kinds of goods are not lacking at all, and the amount is large and preferential, and when he sells it, it is several times the profit.

Nowadays, Guangzhou and Macao are full of merchant ships, and there are a large number of goods and a huge amount of silver flowing here every day, and it is precisely because of this that the high tariffs make many people dissatisfied, not only local merchants, but also these merchants.

It's hard to say that this rebellion didn't have their behind-the-scenes push.

Suddenly, just as a few people were laughing, suddenly one of you ran in, came to the side of one of the council members, and whispered, "My lord, a few maritime merchants have run in, saying that they want to go out to sea from here to take refuge. ”

"Oh, then arrange a boat for them as soon as possible and let them leave." When the merchant director heard this, his eyes flickered.

"They said there were people chasing them and hoping to ......," the guard reported again.

"Rest assured that I'll stand in the way of these people." The director frowned, although he was reluctant, but he still took on this responsibility.

"Okay." The guards hurriedly retreated.

"Hehe, what's the matter, so mysterious." Looking at the appearance of the merchant director, Mascolu also asked curiously.

"Haha, it's okay, it's just a few friends, I made a mistake in Daming and wanted to go out." The director haha unveiled it.

As soon as he said this, the others all smiled, and they had a broken relationship with the pirates on the sea of Guangdong, and the two often cooperated.

Several people smiled, didn't care, and continued to talk. However, it didn't take long for someone to rush over to report.

"Oh no, Lord Governor, it's not good, Da Ming...... The Ming army is coming! ”

"What's the situation, say it again." Mascolu also stood up and glared at the panicked soldier.

"Lord Governor......" the soldier gasped and exclaimed, "a number of soldiers have come in, blonde hair towards here, and it seems that they want to contribute to the Governor's Palace. ”

The soldier's headless statement made Mascolu's head foggy, and he didn't know what was going on, why the Ming army was stationed here, didn't the rent and commercial taxes be paid, and the customs duties were also paid.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that our beautiful afternoon tea is coming to an end, and according to the soldiers, it seems that something terrible has happened, so let's go and see it."

"Go together, go together."

The council merchants and Jesuit priests agreed, and Mascolu gathered his troops and went down the mountain. As for the central fort of Persimmon Mountain, this is external, aimed at the sea, guarding against pirates, and it is still under construction, and it is useless against the enemy from the interior, so he did not order adjustments, but just took his own men down.

Although there are many Portuguese on the peninsula and outlying islands of Macao, there are no more than 10,000 people, and Li Tao's tens of thousands of troops entered, which was as fierce as a tiger entering a flock.

The Portuguese inhabitants of the entire peninsula were alarmed, but in the face of such a large army, they did not dare to stop them, but closed their doors in order to protect themselves.

Li Tao is not a person to kill, seeing that these people are interested in not stopping the army, he doesn't care, but marches towards the central persimmon mountain.

When he reached the half-center, Mashigaru finally reacted, and hurriedly arranged his troops with a thousand men under his command, stopping the cavalry troops in the lead.

Not long after, Li Tao also rushed over with the Chinese army. Walking to the front, he looked at the classic line formation tactics on the opposite side, disdainful, if the opponent was more numerous, he was really a little worried about casualties, but the musketeers of only a thousand people were just a little hindered in front of his eight thousand people.

"Array!"

Li Tao ordered loudly, and soon the Chinese army he brought also began to change formations, turning into a wider line, almost filling up the open space, while the five hundred cavalry were loaming around the periphery, and the artillery quickly calculated the distance in the rear, and then adjusted the elevation angle, and the five mortars were quickly adjusted and ready to fire at any time.

As for the cannon, it was too heavy to carry, but five mortars were enough, and a large mixture of black powder and iron nails and iron pieces was extremely lethal to personnel.

The distance between the two sides is two or three hundred meters, and at this distance, the musket is not lethal, and the tactic of lining up to shoot is to launch a charge at such a distance, with great perseverance, endure casualties, and shoot at close range.

However, Li Tao, who brought artillery, would not play such a stupid tactic of fighting casualties, and baptized with shells before starting the war, which is a rule that every field army general knows.

"Tell the other party, lay down your arms and accept the inspection of the Ming army, this is the land of the Ming Dynasty, and anyone who holds weapons against the official army will be regarded as complicity." Li Tao asked people to bring words over.

After the herald passed, he shouted loudly directly in front of the battle, regardless of whether the other party could understand it or not, and returned to his own camp after shouting.

Does the Portuguese side understand? Of course, I can understand, not to mention those Jesuit priests, just say Ma Shi Jia Lu, in order to deepen the friendship with Hong Chengchou, it took a lot of energy to learn the Ming official dialect, of course, this is also thanks to the emergence of Chinese pinyin, with the free teaching of the Emperor and the Society of Jesus, is gradually promoting, Ma Jia Lu is one of the beneficiaries.

In the face of the shouting similar to an ultimatum, several principals looked at each other, not knowing how to react, giving up arms, it was impossible at that time, the Portuguese did not look very honest in front of the Ming Dynasty, but as soon as they came out of the Ming territory, they did all kinds of evil. And the reason why they obey the rules like this is just that they were scared by Daming.

"Where the hell did this army come from, why did they start fighting without saying a word, and weren't they afraid of their emperor's punishment?" The businessman who harbored a few rebellious was dumbfounded, he never thought that the so-called pursuers of the other party would be so tough, and the strength was so strong, looking at the rows of muskets, they were definitely killed by a sea of corpses and blood, and the battle line was much neater than that of Portugal.

"I don't know, but it's definitely not under the command of the governor of Guangdong, I've seen their army, and there are definitely not so many muskets." Mascolu also said depressedly, "The money we gave to the governor is all in place, otherwise how could there be an army coming?" ”

"It's in place, every year, I'm really wondering." The merchant replied.

"What did those people do just now, and what trouble did they cause in Daming?" The Jesuit priest asked not to be lonely.

Several merchants glanced at each other, and one of them said, "It's nothing, it's just that I participated in the recent rebellion of the Ming Dynasty." ”

"Oh my God." The priest groaned, "This is terrible, it looks like it won't be over so soon." ”

Of course, it's not over so soon, Macao is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and now there are people who are blocking the Ming army on the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and they are also harboring rebellions, and now they are still armed to resist the search and arrest, which can already be regarded as complicity.

After Li Tao waited for a while, he saw that the other side had not come up with a decision for a long time, and he was impatient, "These foreigners, Lao Tzu is not powerful, and I am a sick cat, and I don't take Lao Tzu's words in my eyes." ”

"Today's Macau, Lao Tzu has decided." Li Tao calmed down, and the ignorance of foreigners made him angry.

The field army followed the Ming Emperor's expedition to the east and west, the south and the north, although the time was short, but the war was experienced, from the earliest fight against pirates, participated in the palace coup, and then destroyed the Jurchen Eight Banners, attacked Lin Dan Khan in the north, and finally conquered the entire southern Mongolia and expelled the Jurchens.

This pile, one by one, although many people have died, but they have developed their arrogance, coupled with the pride of the Celestial Empire since ancient times, they naturally have a sense of superiority over foreigners, but now they are ignored by foreigners, how can Li Tao not be angry.

The Mongols have all been killed, you don't know which Westerner from the middle of nowhere still dares to throw my face at me? It's the other way around.

"Mortar ready!"

Li Tao's face was cold, and he said viciously, "Fire!" ”

Boom Boom!

Five cylindrical munitions exploded, and at one end of the column, a fuse kept burning, rolling in the sky, crossing an unstable parabola, and finally landing in the Portuguese position.

Bang!

A violent explosion sounded, and with the explosion, the iron nails and iron pieces inside were scattered, causing huge damage, although there were only five shells, but the unarmored musketeers on the opposite side could not bear it at all, and the whole front was in chaos when it landed.

"Damn, they attacked, shot, shot." Mascolu was also stunned, and shouted angrily for a while.

"Lord Governor, the distance is not enough, the other party is attacking with cannons!"

"Damn it, damn it." In the face of the artillery, which far exceeded the distance of the muskets, the Portuguese had no good recourse, but after three volleys, the battle line of a thousand men collapsed, and they dodged the shells in all directions.

After the third volley, the cavalry followed the charge, and in the face of the scattered musketeers, it was almost like mowing grass, but two charges, and most of them knelt and surrendered with their guns raised under the threat of death.

On July 15, the third year of the Apocalypse, the Portuguese armed resistance to the entry of the Ming army was broken by the general Li Tao of Hosoyanagi, thus ending their autonomous rule in the region.
