Both captains were officers of the radical faction, so they decided not to stay dead on the ship. They all felt the need to find out what was actually going on land. So as soon as the two of them combined, they decided to send Marines to the land to inquire about the situation. The target is in the Chinese village.
And both of them felt that instead of secretly sending a few people to inquire about the situation, it was better to declare force generously! Anyway, the two sides have already torn their faces, and many Dutch warships have been sunk, so there is no need to care about any face problems.
Moreover, if the team sent to get a large number of people, it may be able to give some confidence to the local Chinese people and provide some more accurate information.
They themselves come from the common people, and of course they understand the habits of the Chinese people who do not want to cause trouble, and if there are a large number of soldiers by their side, they may be a little bolder. So the two men simply sent all 60 marines on both ships.
The target is the Chinese village furthest away from Batavia City. Thanks to the fact that the people from the Intelligence Bureau have drawn them a more accurate map, which allows them to find the place directly according to the map.
The group of marines landed in a dinghy and walked in a circle along a path frequented by villagers to the village.

When they first entered the village, they frightened the villagers! Not long ago, the Dutch had stormed the village and plundered it, so that when they saw the man with the firearm on their backs entering the village, they were frightened and jumped for a while before they were calmed down by the soldiers. When they found out that the soldiers were all Chinese, they cautiously approached them one by one.
At that time, Southeast Asia was called Nanyang in China, and many people who were forced to move to Southeast Asia because of their livelihood called this activity "going to Nanyang". This is similar to "breaking through the Kanto"! Therefore, most of the people in the Nanyang area are people from Fujian and Guangdong.
And there are a lot of people in Liu Pei's team. When Liu Pei was a while ago, many of the pirates recovered were from these places. After they have been systematically trained, they have been fully integrated into Liu Pei's system. So it's easy for both sides to communicate.
As the saying goes, "when a fellow sees a fellow countryman, his eyes are full of tears". The two sides touched with the local accent, and the original barrier was opened in an instant! In particular, the marines swore that they had come to explore the path this time, and that they would bring this place under the rule of the Red-Eyed Dragon King in the future! When the time comes, it will be up to the Han people to have the final say!
This will make these villagers very happy! One by one, they cried to the Marines about the oppression and suffering they had suffered in their daily lives, and showed them the empty granary. Fortunately, this part of Southeast Asia is rich in plant species, as long as everyone gathers some food in the forest and survives for a while, the crops in the fields will mature. There will be no starvation to death.
While the Marines were going from house to house to inquire about the situation, the villagers who were standing guard outside came running in and saying that a group of Dutch soldiers from the castle were coming to the village! This frightened the villagers.
But the officers leading the team were not afraid of these Dutch people. He sent someone to peek at the entrance of the village, estimated the number of Dutch soldiers, and decided to face them head-on to see how good they were.
So the commander quietly gathered the soldiers, pacified the villagers, and then laid an ambush at the entrance of the village. They had put the medicine in the fire gun in advance, and they were waiting to rush out of the village and kill the Quartet! Moreover, the Dutch soldiers who came from their sentry were smug and unguarded, so they knew that they had won this battle!
Sure enough, seeing their sudden appearance, the Dutch soldiers were in a mess, and they didn't even line up, let alone reload ammunition! The Marines grinned and raised their guns and pointed at them. I heard the officer shout: "Shoot!" ”
The soldiers in the first row pulled the trigger! With a neat salvo, 30 buckshot bullets drilled into the pile of people opposite! The Dutch soldiers had just tried to move from column to column, and the soldiers were in high numbers! As a result, they were fired in a volley at a distance of less than 100 meters, which was simply bad luck!
In an instant, I heard a scream! The Dutch soldiers fell more than twenty in an instant! Hearing the screams of his companions, seeing his companion's wounds, and even being splashed on his face by his companion's blood
, the Dutch soldiers are in complete disarray!
While the Dutch commander was desperately shouting, the second platoon of Marines stepped forward and stood at the forefront and lowered their guns again under the command of the officer. With a neat volley, this time the Dutch soldiers fell more than a dozen more!
And at this time, the Dutch soldiers did not talk about loading their muskets, but many soldiers had not yet taken their muskets off their shoulders! And worst of all, their commander also died in this volley!
The soldiers who have lost their command are even more leaderless! There were people running around, dazed and at a loss, some people stood still and loaded their muskets, and some people drew their swords and wanted to charge, all the soldiers were still messily huddled together, and the whole scene was a mess!
However, the Marine commander on the opposite side did not hesitate, and he continued to command his soldiers in an orderly manner. It's like a conductor conducting his orchestra! The most amazing thing is that he shouted all kinds of orders in his mouth, and he could still quickly complete the loading action of the fire gun in his hand. Wait for him to shout: "Second row forward!" ”
The Marines, who were standing in the second row, immediately stepped forward and stepped forward. By the time they stood still, the Marine Commander's hand had just finished loading! He lifted the firearm up and shouted loudly, "Ready! ”
The soldiers immediately moved the faucet with their hands, making a series of "clicks" to put it in the standby position. The commander shouted again: "Aim! ”
With a bang, 30 guns were flattened, pointing the muzzle of the black hole at the other party. And the commander also targeted a Dutch soldier. Just before he could pull the trigger, he exclaimed, "Shoot!" ”
Immediately the platoon of gunfire rang out, and more than a dozen people fell on the opposite side again. However, at this time, the Marine commander did not reload the firebolt. Because the Marines of the second platoon were already loaded and were waiting for his order.
As soon as the order for rotation came out, the Marines immediately rotated their positions and fired another volley under the command of the commander! At this time, the Dutch soldiers on the opposite side also fired their smoothbore guns sporadically, but in a hurry, they did not cause any casualties at all!
