Section 617 Appeal to the Portuguese for help
Yan Zhang is a master of art and bold, and he led his subordinates to fight brilliantly.
The black uncles were killed on their backs, and the blood flowed into the side of the big ship being repaired, and the boat seemed to stop in the sea of blood!
Uncle Hei's equipment is extremely poor, many people came running with their bare hands, and then they were beaten to death and stabbed to death, they didn't have a backbone, no one organized an attack, and some of them scolded others that this place is not up to you, why should you listen to you. The laziness of the black man can be seen.
Purely to join in the fun, many people's idea is to rob by fire----- they don't work, they run to make a fortune if there is any trouble, many people are not just for the "brothers" to take revenge, but heard that the Chinese ship has a large amount of silver, then come to help.
Their tactics are also poor, but they are "adding fuel to the play"!
If they had gathered a large group of people to rush together, they would have been thrown into the sea long ago, but now, Uncle Hei would have died as many as they came.
Yan Zhang's firepower was not strong, and he also relied on another cruiser and supply ship of the Southeast Army to drive close to the shore and be stationed on both sides to shoot at close range.
They fired shotguns from naval guns, and hundreds of thousand-grain projectiles flew out, hitting the human body like a sieve hole, blood spurting out wildly, killing and injuring a large number of black uncles who were swarming in, and in some places the corpses were piled up to the height of a person!
Looking down from a high place, with the warships on the shore as the center, the black uncles rushed like crazy and were knocked down, and the sound of gunfire and cannon shouts and screams formed an ensemble of the battlefield!
The black smoke of the explosion flew high into the sky!
The black uncles lying on the ground cried out in misery and pain, like slaughtered chickens.
Whether it's a triangular spear stab or a dummmy bullet, the lethality is amazing!
Both sides entered a state of frenzy, and the officers and men of the three ships of the Southeast Army all went into battle, even doctors, cooks, sail repairers, and carpenters, who could not shoot guns and helped to load bullets.
The guns fired a volley, and the rate of fire was so fast that the black uncles were silent for a while---- there were too many people who died, and the people behind did not follow.
But the black uncles have backbone, no matter how many people die one after another, they still continue to charge, and more and more black uncles run to attack the southeast army on land, and there are several boats carrying the black uncles to besiege the southeast second ship.
There are too many of them, and it is not a good thing to continue to fight like this, but I am afraid that our army will be defeated quickly.
The key to breaking the game lies in Hong Xiguan, and the decisive victory is outside the battlefield!
As soon as the battle began, he delegated command to the lieutenant commander Kaustit, who commanded the battle, and he took his own boat to the Portuguese fort in Mogadishu to ask for help from the Portuguese!
The fort was heavily guarded and full of guns, and seeing that he had only brought two soldiers, the Portuguese opened the door and let him in.
He was taken to the city wall, and he could see the battle in full swing on the battlefield from a distance, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace.
Three Portuguese officers dressed in tweed uniforms were seen on the side of the city walls, and they were introduced by the governor, Fidel Castro González, and his lieutenants, Cortés and Igeila.
Hong Xiguan used his Portuguese, greeted the three of them, and then introduced the situation succinctly: "...... We met pirates at sea, captured them, and here are their confessions. ”
He took out the document and showed it to three Portuguese, who could not read Chinese, and it was translated by Hong Xiguan.
"We captured a group of pirates, and one of them escaped and ran ashore, and then they gathered a crowd to besiege our legally landed fleet!"
"We are in your place, and you have an obligation to maintain order and help us exterminate those gangsters!" Hong Xiguan demanded solemnly.
"No, that's the trouble you caused, and you're responsible for solving it yourself!" Governor Gonzalez shook his head, as if he didn't want to get into trouble.
He was in his fifties, with a white beard and deep wrinkles on his forehead, and he looked like an old fox.
"We are willing to pay 5,000 Spanish silver dollars...... Hong Xiguan saw that reasoning could not work, and tried to lure.
As a result, he was pushed back by Gonzalez, who pointed to the grand scene of the black men besieging the Chinese ships in the distance, and said indifferently: "Then you have to have a life to enjoy!" ”
Since this is the case, if the soft one doesn't work, the hard one will come, Hong Xiguan took a deep breath and said: "If something happens to us, then you Portuguese will also be unlucky!" ”
The old guy Gonzalez raised his white eyebrows and said, "Are you threatening me?" ”
"No, I'm asking you!" Hong Xiguan said: "Our southeast province has always had a good relationship with you Portuguese, and your ships have been operating along the coast of our southeast province and Daming, running business and earning profits. ”
"What if we don't help you?" Gonzalez said indifferently.
"You can't afford that!" Hong Xiguan is sharp!
The two faced each other-for-tat, looking at each other like cockfights.
At this time, Cortés, the deputy of the governor, said: "Envoy Hong, please let us discuss." ”
"Okay!" So Hong Xiguan stepped aside, and the three Portuguese discussed.
"They were passing boats, we helped them, and then the trouble was left to us, and when they were gone, we would have trouble!" Gonzalez said. ”
"But if we don't help them, we'll be in even more trouble!" Cortés smiled bitterly: "That envoy Hong is right, if they die here, our trade in the Far East will be completely ruined!" ”
Immediately, Gonzalez groaned.
Aha, thanks to the Chinese for the golden mean! The light of the great god of the leader shines forever!
After the leader of the southeastern province, Yan Dashao, conquered Batavia of the Dutch, he did not expel the Hongmaofan, allowing them to continue doing business without rejecting them.
As long as they abide by the law and pay taxes in accordance with the law, the Southeast Government will not only not be embarrassed, but will also help them do business.
In the Ming Dynasty, the Portuguese had been leasing Macao for business, and the Southeast Province did not object, and if it did, it would not be possible for Macau to last long under the attack of the battleships of the Southeast Fleet.
Today, the Portuguese occupy the city of Malacca in the Straits of Malacca and have not changed their flag;
The Spaniards in Luzon did a business of red and red fruits, making money and making a lot of money.
The British have always been allies of the Chinese in the southeastern province, and the two sides have never turned their faces.
Even the Dutch, fighting a war is a war, and they still do business after the war, they have no problem passing through the waterways of the southeast province, and they have been trading with the Japanese state, and there are many Dutch merchant ships docked in the Rising Sun Harbor, the ruling center of the southeast province!
The attitude of the southeast province is very clear, war is war, and business is still business!
In this way, something happened to the visiting fleet of the Southeast Province here, so it will make the Portuguese and even Hongmaofan very embarrassed, the Chinese are so good to you Hongmaofan, but you sit back and watch them be killed?!
If you don't see it, forget it, but it's on the territory of the Portuguese, and this kind of thing happens under the noses of the Portuguese.
At this time, Higuela said: "I can take this opportunity to teach those black people a lesson, and even, teach those green cults a lesson!" ”
Cortés agreed: "Yes! ”
Although the Portuguese occupied the area and spread Catholicism, in their opinion, the Green Religion in this area was too rampant, and they just kept the name of the teacher and could not find an opportunity to attack the Green Religion.
Soon the three Portuguese discussed the result, and Cortés came alone and said to Hong Xiguan: "Mud consumption! ”
He speaks Chinese!
