Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Second Desperate Encounter

In the past two days, I have been closed and pushed, and everyone will support it a lot. Thank you.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

When they first arrived on this island, they couldn't find the natives, but now when they don't want to meet them, the aborigines just appeared!

Looking at the continuous influx of these Nanyang natives, I am afraid that there are hundreds of people! I don't know if there is anyone else behind. With a lack of ammunition and no backup, it is really a dangerous thing to rely on the ten of them to defend against the natives of this island!

"This Zhou Dafu will cause trouble!" Kavala shouted, "He will die or die!" Before you die, you have to bring these people in! As he spoke, he was about to target Zhou Dafu and kill him.

Dongmen Qing hurriedly stopped, and Shen Wei also said on the side: "Don't be like this!" ”

At this time, Zhou Dafu had already seen Dongmen Qing and others lying on the high ground, rushing over to this side and shouting: "Help! Help me! Shen Wei! Help me! Prince Wang! Help me! ”

Chen Baifu asked Dongmenqing: "Can you save him?" ”

"What to do to save him!" Kavala said, "It's okay not to kill him!" ”

Dongmen Qingxin said: "He has already lured the natives over, and it will be useless to kill him now, but can you save him?" Well, although this man is a soft bone, he has been following the Franc machine for a long time, and not only does the Franc machine talk smoothly, but also knows many other things that the sailors do not know, which may be useful in the future! Then he drew two words on the ground: "Help!" ”

Chen Baifu relayed Dongmenqing's meaning, Kavala frowned, Dongmenqing nodded on those two words again to emphasize, Kavala snorted and said: "Okay, if something happens in the future, you are responsible!" ”

In fact, without waiting for them to do it, Zhou Dafu had already climbed up. This high ground is not vertical, and in the past few days, Dongmen Qing and others have stepped out of a ladder-like path, and it is not very difficult to climb up, but after all, it is not as fast as walking on flat ground! Chen Baifu threw a long vine that they dried and used to make ropes down for Zhou Dafu to catch, and after Zhou Dafu caught the long vine, he used both hands and feet, and came up faster! It didn't take long for him to reach the high ground, and when he came to the front of everyone, he knelt down and said in a loud voice: "Thank you, thank you!" ”

Shen Wei snorted, pointed to the two words on the ground and said, "This is what Wang Gongzi meant!" ”

Zhou Dafu looked at those two words, he knew some words, and saw that it was the word "save people", so he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to Dongmenqing and said, "Thank you Wang Gongzi, thank you Wang Gongzi." The little one was ignorant before, but in the future, he will be a cow and a horse, and he will repay the prince for saving his life. ”

Kavala also said: "If it is according to my meaning, it is better to push him down!" Maybe hand them over, and the natives won't come up. ”

Zhou Dafu was startled, and hurriedly hid behind Dongmen Qing, and everyone looked down after listening to Kavala's words, but saw that there were people surging below, and hundreds of people were climbing up.

Kavala was about to release the gun when he got the lead in the morning, but he was held down by Dongmenqing, and pointed to the stone under his feet, and everyone understood that gunpowder and lead were very limited, and they had to use them as sparingly as possible.

Chen Baifu shouted: "Everyone, do it!" Don't let them come up! So he picked up a stone and threw it down. Zhou Dafu fled for a long time, and he was already so tired that he was about to collapse, but he didn't dare not help at this time, for fear that they would say it was useless, so he also rushed to take a stone and smash it down. Although this high ground is not very steep, it is condescending, ten people you move and I smash, and stones and stones rain down, in terms of lethality, it may be better than Kavala's musket!

The dozen or so natives who crawled at the front were the first to be injured and rolled down, overpowering the group of people behind. Dongmen Qingwang saw it and said: "These people are not in order, but unfortunately we have too few people and insufficient ammunition, if there are more than ten or twenty people with enough ammunition, maybe we can suppress them and conquer the whole island!" ”

After receiving this round of flying stone attacks, the natives' offensive was slightly reduced and retreated, but Dongmen Qing and the others on the high ground were not worried, because most of their stones had been used. Dongmen Qingxin said: "I can't hold it here!" He gestured with Chen Baifu, and while the natives below were still resting, he commanded everyone to move all the useful things on the high ground to the cave, ready to resist stubbornly.

Kavala shouted, "Stand back again, if you trap them!" Then sooner or later, we will also be dead! ”

Dongmen Qing drew the word "night" on the ground, and Shen Wei said with an understanding: "Wang Gongzi is saying that we will go back first, and then look for opportunities at night?" ”

Dongmenqing nodded, and Chen Baifu also said, "Yes!" The first two days we had a good harvest of both fishing and hunting, and the cave had enough to eat for a few days. As long as you can live, there is always hope. ”

This is the meaning of obeying Dongmenqing.

After a long time, the natives have not launched an attack, Dongmenqing and others have even moved the stone for more than half of the time, the sound of the attack is launched again, Kavala picked up a stone to smash down, but couldn't help but scream, it turned out that the natives came up with a large wooden shield this time - they have been delayed for so long, presumably to prepare for this.

Kavala and the others even smashed several stones were blocked by wooden shields, some of these stones were brought up by hand in the past few days, most of them were picked up directly on the high ground, and there were no boulders enough to smash the shield, they smashed for a while, seeing that they could only slightly delay each other's footsteps, Dongmenqing shook his head and pointed to the cave to signal that it was time to withdraw.

At that moment, Shen Wei led the Shuiyu Cai brothers to go first, Kavala and others continued to smash the stones to delay, and when the stones were finished, Shuiyu Cai and the others were already ready on it, and Kavala and others gave up the high ground, pulled the rope that Shen Wei and others hung down and quickly climbed up, and then collected the rope and waited on the outside of the cave.

As soon as they left, the high ground was quickly occupied by the natives, but the position of the cave was much steeper than the high ground, and it was a little difficult for them to climb with both hands and feet when they came up, and as for carrying things to it, it was only after the rattan rope could be hoisted up. At this time, there was a group of people guarding it, and it was not easy for the natives who lacked siege equipment to attack on their backs.

Moreover, there are not many places to settle on this steep slope, and at most two or three people can go up together, and in some places only one person can climb together, so that the numerical advantage of the natives is gone, and Dongmen Qing and others are not in a hurry, so they wait on it with swords, and the bullfrog and Kavala each hold a wooden stick with a thick wrist, and stab them down when someone approaches.

The natives attacked for more than half an hour without results, and the chief organized people to throw javelins, but most of the javelins could not reach the target at all, and some of them were extremely powerful and threw javelins, but when they reached the top, they had no strength, and Dongmen Qing and others picked up the wooden row that was going to be used as a door and blocked it all. A few fell at their feet, and Chen Baifu picked them up and said with a smile: "They have sent us weapons." Everyone laughed when they heard thisβ€”in the battle to the death, laughter is especially needed!

In this way, from the afternoon attack to the sunset, the natives finally gave up the attack and changed to besiege, dozens of natives arranged a fence on the high ground to dodge and surround the side where the cave was located, and they planned to use the trap instead!

Shen Wei was annoyed when he saw it: "I thought they would leave if they couldn't attack it, but I didn't expect them to plan to spend it with us!" It seems that these natives are also smart. ”

"Clever! You praise them for being smart! Kavala cried out: "As soon as they are wise, we will be in trouble!" ”

Shuiyu Cai also paused: "I really shouldn't have climbed up at the beginning, but now I am trapped here, it is really difficult to fly!" They don't have to attack now, as long as they are so sleepy, in a few days we will have nothing to eat and drink, and we will starve to death! ”

Chen Baifu said: "If you don't come up, let alone a few days, you will have to be carried back by them to eat now!" ”

Several people talked about it, but they couldn't say why, so they all looked towards Dongmen Qing, hoping that this person who had an idea could provide some advice, Dongmen Qing looked at the sea at sunset, and suddenly opened his mouth wide, as if he saw something appear on the sea!

Everyone turned their heads together, and after only one glance, seven or eight out of ten jumped up and shouted, "Boat! Boat! ”
