Chapter 585: The Prince's Wedding
Abyssinia, located in the East African highlands, is a country with a history of hundreds of years, and it is a rare animal throughout Africa. No country could threaten their security except that belligerent Ottoman Turkey.
As for Da Ming, it doesn't exist at all.
"Bring the messenger of the Ming Dynasty."
Soon, a few of his men dragged a bruised Akito over.
The flesh and blood on this Ming man's body were blurred, and the flesh and skin were cracked, and there were wounds all over it. What is especially scary is that in some wounds, there are white maggots, which keep crawling, which is creepy.
"You just surrender to me and be my slave, and you will be healed, and you will enjoy beauty and good food."
The Emperor of Abyssinia tried to persuade the Ming envoy.
"Dream on! I am a minister of the Ming Dynasty, how can I be a minister to the barbarians? Offend the Ming Dynasty, and die innocently! I'm waiting for you to bury me! ”
Figured out the meaning of the messenger from the translator, the emperor of Abyssinia is angry, I don't know what to do, you should die!
He raised his scimitar and tried to slay it with his own hands, but he rushed to the messenger and put it away.
"Give it to Gamma and let him deal with this man!" The Abyssinian Emperor smiled cruelly.
This gamma was the leader of the musketeers from Portugal.
Rumors have come of the Ming army's execution of the Portuguese in Sri Lanka.
They won't investigate the cause of the matter, anyway, the damned infidel offended them, and the only way to kill each other is to kill each other with a punishment ten thousand times more cruel!
They tied the envoys to the cross, and each of them cut off a piece of flesh...... For a full day, the flesh on the envoy's body was gone, and only a pair of scarlet eyes remained, still glaring at these barbarians.
He didn't snort the whole time.
If you dare to kill a Ming person, thousands of people will pay for their lives, and grandpa is waiting for you in hell!
The Abyssinian Emperor and Gamma, with 5,400 men, marched into Somalia.
Five thousand Abyssinian troops, four hundred musketeers, they are full of confidence, this is a force that can run rampant in Africa, what is the Ming army, as long as one charge, they can all be wiped out!
The gang sang and smiled, not feeling that this was a life-and-death war, as if in their eyes, this was a shopping rush.
They didn't care, but the people on the other side were extra attentive.
Gayer constantly sent personnel to reconnoiter the situation of the opponent, and then on the road to the road, to build positions in advance, to fort the artillery, and then to arrange the battle formation, repeatedly explained, every soldier is not allowed to leave the position, either die in battle, or win!
In order to prevent a rout, he even formed a team of warlords.
Just as they were nervously preparing, the battle came unexpectedly.
When the Abyssinian army heard that there was an obstacle in front of them, they screamed with excitement and rushed straight forward.
"This is not an army, this is a herd!"
Gamma, who had some common sense, roared angrily, but the Abyssinian Emperor did not care at all, and was even very proud.
"Behold, my warriors! They are invincible beasts, and with a single charge, the enemy will be routed, and victory is ours! ”
Gamma rolled his eyes frequently, the battle was not fought like this.
But as a knight who has dealt with the Indians a few times, Gamma does not worship the East like most Westerners, maybe the East does have exquisite goods and rich land, but what they lack most is courage, as long as they rush forward, they can win, it is easy, not difficult at all!
As for the church Abyssinians to fight, excuse me, there is no such obligation.
Don't think that converting to God is as noble as we are.
Even if you convert to God, God will not consider you pickled monkeys to be God's chosen people.
This is an army that looks like a god, and at this moment, an earth-shattering cannon fire suddenly sounds.
The sound was more astonishing, better than thunder.
The face of the emperor of Abyssinia changed suddenly, and Gamma was also stunned, they didn't have artillery!
Just as they hesitated, one by one, the flowering shells exploded in the dense charging ranks...... These soldiers are completely stupid, they don't know how to dodge at all, they can only be stupid to be bombed.
After the smoke of gunpowder, corpses, broken limbs, stinking blood, and heavy gunpowder smoke were everywhere.
These soldiers were stunned, they had no idea that the war would be so cruel...... After a brief pause, they turned around and ran, much faster than they charged.
Gayel was also stunned, this was the first official battle after their training.
He had already anticipated many scenarios, but he had never imagined that the enemy would collapse so easily.
It's just twenty guns, and even muskets are useless.
You guys are running so fast, how can we chase it!
"Rush!"
It was only after the men had run out a few dozen paces that Gayer gave the order to pursue.
The soldiers rushed forward with muskets in their hands, and after rigorous training, they moved quickly and with great order.
Where there are many people, it's like where a shot is fired, and then it shouts for them to surrender.
Then the living enemy will honestly kneel.
At the end of the day, as long as they catch up, they will kneel.
Even when he saw them appear, he surrendered to the wind.
It's just that victory comes easily, and it makes people angry.
These guys surrendered too quickly and actually blocked the way of pursuit. Obviously, you can catch more, and your energy is wasted on dealing with the captives.
"You all kneel to the side, don't get in the way, be honest, wait for us to come back and deal with it!"
Not to mention, these Abyssinian troops were really obedient, and sure enough, they threw away their weapons, held their heads in their hands, and squatted on the side of the road.
Motionless and trembling.
To say that among this group of centaurs, the most combat-effective is Gamma's four hundred musketeers, who also tried to resist and save the fate of defeat at one point.
However, the Abyssinians ran too fast and swept their ranks to pieces, and before they could be organized, they were slaughtered with their butts.
Dense gunfire, and a group of people fell.
Of the four hundred Portuguese muskets, more than half were killed and wounded, and the rest were all taken prisoner.
……
The battle was over, and Gayer couldn't count how many prisoners he had captured, he only knew that he had captured officers and generals on one acre of land, and soldiers on ten acres of land!
He had been learning how to train soldiers, but he had never learned how to deal with prisoners.
In order to prevent these people from escaping, he ordered that all the captives build a camp and then lock them up in themselves.
Surprisingly, these guys really built the camp decently.
"The battle went unexpectedly well, and we won!" Gai Yeer said excitedly: "The method taught by Master Taishi really works. I'm confident now that we can win if we go back to Europe! ”
Wang Yue smiled, "Very good, you continue to increase your strength, the opportunity is not far away." Wang Yue paused, and then said, "Have you found the messenger of the Ming Dynasty?" ”
Gaiel hesitated for a moment, and hurriedly said: "It seems that I heard that I was killed!" Died a terrible death. ”
In an instant, Wang Yue's face darkened, he didn't talk nonsense, he just said lightly: "You know what to do, right?" ”
Obviously, his tone was flat, but Gayer felt endless pressure, and he nodded vigorously, "I understand." "The guy turned and went out, and all the Portuguese captives, not a single one left, were pushed to the seashore and wrapped in fishing nets.
If you kill a Ming envoy, you will have to pay for your life a hundredfold.
If you cut you for one day, you will be cut for three days!
The sharp knife cut off pieces of flesh and threw them directly into the sea. The slices of meat and gore attract a lot of sea fish to join the feast.
People on the shores howled miserably, carnivorous fish tossed up and down excitedly in the ocean, and seabirds quacked in the air to prey on fish.
The whole scene, better than hell, is creepy.
"Dare to kill the Ming envoys, it's cheap to kill them, and I still have to settle accounts with the king of Portugal and the emperor of the HRE!" Zhu Houxi said murderously, but in a blink of an eye he smiled again, "That Wang Yue, I have good news for you." ”
Wang Yue sensed that Zhu Houxi's smile was not good.
"What's the good news?"
"Naturally, the crown prince and your eldest daughter have been married!"
In an instant, Wang Yue's fists clenched, and his brows stood up!
Zhu Houxi subconsciously leaned back, "You can't do it again!" It's been months, and maybe they're all pregnant! ”
