vs 397 Pre-war reverie
At ten o'clock in the morning, two hours before the battle was due, Captain Storm, who was on the "Nanhai 8", temporarily handed over command to his co-captain, a young boy, and returned to the captain's room.
Close the door, sit down, think about it, open the locked suitcase, and under the clothes, take out a Bible and a cross!
Although he behaves as a believer in Mazu on the outside, his belief in God can be let go if he wants!
He opened the Bible and began to read, it was so old that some of the pages were torn.
He flipped through the Bible motionlessly, knowing that in two hours, the two armies were about to fight, with terrible casualties, and I don't know how many people would lose their lives, but no matter how many people there were, there must be many Caucasians.
The flags seen through the binoculars showed that it was not only the Dutch ships on the other side, but also the combined forces of the Caucasian nations, who even unfurled the ancient crusader flag!
This is not a universal battle, but a holy war!
Fighting under God, the white race will be more courageous.
Storm knew even more that his current commander, Young Master Yan, had already made up his mind to fight to the death!
The military order issued by the eldest young master was murderous: "Wherever there is a sound of artillery, fight until there is no sound of artillery, and fight until the winner is completely separated!"
Those who dare to retreat without permission will be killed!
In Estom's opinion, the Caucasians will lose this battle!
Storm followed Yan Dashao, he was a red-haired fan, and actually became Yan Dashao's old courtier, Yan Dashao ascended the throne at the end of 1625, and then seized the Tainan area, Storm took refuge in Yan Dashao that year.
The qualifications are deep, except for Yan Dashao's uncles, and his contribution to the Southeast Mansion has become the main force in military construction, and the establishment of the entire Southeast Fleet is the foundation he laid.
He saw the whole process of the miraculous rise of the Southeast Province, he walked through the three oceans and three continents, and saw many countries and nations, and he understood that the main nation of this great country in the East is the best race in the world, they are smart, brave, and industrious, although their compatriots on the other side of the strait have many evils, but the Han people of the Southeast Province, under the rule of Yan Dashao, are almost without shortcomings and invulnerable!
He, Storm, will also help them, and the students he has trained will defeat the Caucasians and make the Caucasians corpses roam!
Storm reads, "The reason we inherited from Adam and Eve, that we are born sinners, and that all our sufferings in this world are sins that we have to atone for, and that if we atone for our sins, we will enter the gates of heaven when we die." ”
He gently closed the Bible, hung himself with a cross, and finally made a cross: "I have sinned too much to forgive, and the gates of heaven have been closed to me!" ”
He took a deep breath and said: "According to what the Han people say, since the sun is poor, then I will go against the grain, may Mazu Niangniang bless me, after all, I am fighting for the Han people!" (In the official announcement of the Southeast Prefecture, it is said that the Han people, the Chinese nation, and China are spoken, but the Chao and Ming people are not stated)
Above his desk, a white jade statue of Mazu Niangniang smiled at him!
No matter what others do, Storm prays to Mazu when he gets up, before he goes to bed, and before he eats,
Then he took the cross off, clamped it in the Bible, took out a dozen lead projectiles, and wrapped them in paper along with the Bible.
Open the window and throw the wrapped Bible into the sea.
When I fell into the water, I didn't see any splash at all, and it was covered by the waves brought up by the ship.
Saying goodbye to the past once and for all, he opened the door and walked towards the open-air deck with firm steps!
……
At about the same moment, Hendrik Brower was also looking at the Bible from his cabin, and he read "This is what the Lord says: I will not forsake you, nor will I leave you!" ”
He was determined, and he thought of why? The Lord has made the southeast province prosperous, and they have only developed for a few years, and they have the ability to threaten the white race, and their power is strong enough to root the power of the white race in Southeast Asia!
Could it be that this is the Lord's test for us, but this kind of test is hell-level!
Hendrik Brower gathered the Caucasians to fight, and he knew that if he didn't, he could really be defeated, after all, in the first two wars, the governor knew very well, even if it was a draw, it was defeated!
Suddenly, he remembered what the priest had said on the docks before the expedition: "Killing a heretic is not murder, it is the road to heaven!" ”
The more we kill, the wider our path to heaven becomes!
He couldn't help laughing at himself, "I wonder if their god will teach them (the yellow race) like this?" ”
Tiredly leaning back in his chair, he muttered, "What can be done has been done, and the rest is to ask God to bless you!" ”
The big war is coming, and he actually falls asleep!
……
Others are reading, Yan Dashao is drinking tea, and he is drinking tea and talking with Mr. David.
Over the years, Yan Dashao's prestige has become more and more prosperous, and his friends have become fewer and fewer, and it is not wrong that the rulers are all lonely.
The only people who can sway freely in front of Yan Dashao are Yang Tiansheng, Chen Xinji and Mr. David.
Yang Tiansheng and Chen Xinji are elders, and they have made great contributions to Yan Dashao's superiority, so naturally they don't have to curry favor with the young man.
Mr. David is an outlier, he was born in a British aristocratic family, he was born intelligent, extremely capable, but he did not want to develop in the Western world, he traveled all over the world, joined the Southeast Mansion by mistake, but as always, he did not want to make progress, for him, it is better to sit in the food stalls of the Southeast Mansion and enjoy Chinese food than to go into the temple and eat dog with people.
If he liked dog-eat-dog, he wouldn't have come to the East a long time ago, and he had a good path to promotion in the UK.
When he went out of the mountain, Yan Dashao begged him as a good friend!
This red-haired fan is not frightened, not greedy for money, does not seek officials, and has won the trust of Yan Dashao, even his best friend!
"Overseer, I think you'll be able to win soon, and you'll see results in three days, but at this moment, as a reporter for the Southeastern Daily, I want to ask you how you feel?" Mr. David asked thoughtfully.
Without waiting for Yan Changwu to answer, he confessed to himself: "Actually, I asked questions for my future "Memoirs", maybe the historians of our country will study the thinking of a generation of Tianjiao from my "Memoirs!" ”
Since he said so, Yan Dashao also gave a frank answer: "Where does this come from! ”
"Why bother?"
"Yes, why bother!" Yan Dashao is definitely authentic.
Mr. David laughed and said, "What the hell is this, let me tell you, my dear Overseer, I've only helped you so far, don't expect me to help you too much!" ”
Yan Dashao means that he has to be busy because of Batavia, and Mr. David cleverly gave Yan Dashao something first: "I don't want to be too busy!" ”
Mr. David shook his head and said: "You Han people live very hard, like the small people of the food stalls are busy from morning to evening, they actually open four meals, breakfast, lunch and dinner and night market, children teach them to read as soon as they have thinking, primary school students actually carry muskets to class, and like your brother, all day long, it is non-stop to fight artillery, training artillery, war and artillery, endlessly, what is the purpose of fighting artillery, fighting for territory, fighting for territory, and wanting to have a bigger territory, living too tired!" ”
"What's worse is that you got on the thief ship, and you can't get off!" Mr. David pointed at him and said, "The Han people are the smartest race in the world, and they are also the most tired race!" ”
Yan Dashao thought that I am nothing, if you know that I wear the world Chinese live more tired, that is there are only two countries in the world, one is China, the other is a foreign country, Chinese have to compete for the first place in everything, to compare with the United States to soften than the plane than the aircraft mother, with the black than sports, with the white than technology, with the Germans than the car, with the Japanese than the *V, with the Koreans than the beauty, and the Nordic than the welfare, with the South America than the forest......
But think about it, I govern the southeast province, and there is one thing that China can't compare to me: "The primary school students in my house all carry muskets to class!" ”
This pride is bitter, what a bitterness!
