Chapter 476: Uneasy
In this era, the use of different methods of slaughter for different indigenous people was the key to the Europeans' dominance.
Muskets and artillery will eventually run out of bullets, and the population can only grow in a few hundred thousands, so naturally it cannot be the opponent of those thousands of natives.
So buying, sowing discord, and divisiveness, is their specialty, at least in Africa, provoking wars between tribes is the favorite trick of those clergy and slave traders.
And at present, in their information, there are stories about how the Ming army is like slave soldiers, which can be bought with any money, and there are stories of those poor military households, and there are those people called Confucianism behind them, who are always making trouble, and those Confucianism will do a lot of harm to their own troops.
In the eagerness of the traitor literati, as long as the Han people are pushed to the front, those Confucian scholars will definitely not dare to shoot, and would rather order the soldiers to exchange their bodies for hostages to keep their good reputation.
"Willing to follow the adults, kill into China, kill into the imperial capital, let all Chinese become slaves of your country, long live the dishes!" The words are full of Chinese and express their hearts.
But the next moment, he was arrested by the stinking white soldiers, and at the same time the fat and ointment he had looted from China was divided among the crazy soldiers, and many of the innocent women he had taken before he left, especially his young girls, were raped.
"I'm really a traitor."
"Lowly infidels, use your flesh to open the way to victory for God's people, soldiers, use the infidels as shields and kill all the infidels!"
Sun Cisco was expressionless: "Let him kill." ”
Although it has always been the dream of the Presbyterian Church to arrive at the sniper, but under the efficiency of the big work, this is not so easy to make, at present, what Sun Cisco can control is so many five guards, but he can be trusted, send three people to form a sniper team, and practice marksmanship by the way.
Their sorties were incredible.
Although some traitors were killed, of course, it was a necessary sacrifice, at least in the history books, they were all killed by a handful of evil Europeans.
But for those European soldiers, no one knew where the bullets suddenly came from beyond sight, but the sudden burst of flesh and blood from the heads of their companions was enough to make them shrink their heads in fear.
Only half an hour later, there were no more soldiers who dared to move their feet, and those who had been taken hostage had all run away.
"You belong to the Thousand Households, don't hurry up and treat my injuries, I'm a lifter, when I go back, I'll kill you all in a book!"
"Smack."
"Is there anything else you want to do well, if you don't have it, let's get out of the way."
A group of people claiming to be envoys of the Kingdom of the Netherlands came to the position with their heads held high.
The purpose of these emissaries was clear: to demand the unconditional surrender of the Chinese army, to compensate for all losses, and to pay tribute to the kingdom with those miraculous weapons.
The little envoy, indispensable, Sun Cisco was desperately directing the people in the rear to hurry ashore to repair, the wounded soldiers to be treated, drinking water and food to be guaranteed, and the continuous expansion of the defensive circle, naturally he was too lazy to see such a team of envoys, so he sent Hu Sanqi to deal with a few words, and only then reported the Dutchman's request to him.
Hu Sanqi was ordered to meet the Dutch envoys.
The Dutch envoy was very dissatisfied with the fact that the highest official of the Chinese army did not summon him, but only sent a small officer to meet him, but as a small nobleman, he still told Hu Sanqi his requirements in a fire, of course, the attitude was already polite to describe it as arrogant.
Today's Netherlands can be said to be in full swing, after the original sunset kingdom of the Netherlands was consumed with money, the newly rising British themselves are playing self-destruction, at this time, whether it is per capita wealth, the prosperity of the country, are considered to be the first in Europe, no matter which country in the world, have fully demonstrated their arrogance and self-confidence, as if only such an arrogant performance can cover up their bloody behavior in the process.
Hu Sanqi was ordered to come and see what these foreigners were farting, and he didn't even bother to raise his eyelids, allowing the Dutch to talk at length about the strength of their kingdom, and finally said the purpose of their visit.
The aim was nothing more than to get them to surrender unconditionally, and, of course, to pay them 100,000 gold coins, and to give them those ships and weapons.
"We all know that your country is the most afraid of war, you soldiers, as long as you return to your own country, you will be killed with vain provocation, why not surrender our great kingdom, so that you can be like this, be a second-class citizen of our kingdom, only in this way, unconditional surrender to civilized countries, can be accepted by civilized society, otherwise, if you go back, those Confucian scholars will punish you and kill them all."
"Finished?" When the Dutch envoy finished speaking, Hu Sanqi asked lightly, except for mockery, he didn't care about the threat of the Dutch envoy.
After the traitor's translation, the Dutch looked at Hu Sanqi and didn't understand the meaning of Hu Sanqi's words, but they understood it immediately.
As soon as Hu Sanqi waved his hand, more than a dozen soldiers rushed in and instantly restrained several Dutch envoys.
"Get rid of it!" Hu Sanqi said with a solemn face.
The soldiers immediately drove several Dutch envoys out, and in the process, the traitor interpreter translated Hu Sanqi's words to the Dutch envoys. At this time, the Dutch envoy had already been driven to the door, and after listening to the interpreter's words, the Dutch envoy's eyes widened, full of incredulity.
"The Chinese can't do this to me, this is a serious provocation to the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and there is a price to pay!" The Dutch envoy roared loudly as he was dragged out, but his voice grew farther and farther away, and soon he could not be heard.
The traitor translator also planned to translate the words shouted by the Dutch envoy to Hu Sanqi, but Hu Sanqi gave up and said that there was no need to translate.
"Don't you know that the elder is the greatest!" Hu Sanqi sneered. Indeed, already knowing the purpose of the Dutch, Hu Sanqi no longer cares what the Dutch envoy shouted just now, and with Hu Sanqi's intelligence, the meaning is nothing more than that, he doesn't bother to guess, let alone what threats.
Several envoys were thrown back to their own positions full of dead bodies, their faces full of incredulity, saying that they would surrender as soon as they were frightened, and what about the Confucian students who said that they would be ready to kill all the troops at any time?
When the soldiers of Hu Sanqi's company had their first bite of instant soup, the Dutch governor and other directors in the rear had just met a few Dutch envoys who had returned from the front.
Because the soldiers deliberately did the black hand just now, the bruises of several Dutch envoys when they were dragged away are still there, especially the one who kowtowed, and there was a bleeding buttocks.
Seeing this scene, the Dutch governor's face instantly darkened, where is this spanking of their ass, this is a slap in the face.
"How can the Chinese be this messenger who abuses me, this is the most serious provocation to my kingdom, unforgivable! They will be punished by God! God will curse these heretics to hell! The Dutch governor roared.
Of course, it was only a roar, and the Governor had already discovered that the attack that he had thought was devastating had now completely failed.
The ships in the open sea were basically captured or directly sunk, even if the dock batteries desperately resisted, they were overturned one by one, and Batavia at this time was like a woman who was undressed and thrown to the bed, and she would be pressed under her by a strong man at any time.
In fact, if it weren't for the elders who coveted the property in the city, they would have set the city on fire long ago.
In recent decades, the Netherlands has risen to become a sea coachman, with a large fleet and warships, so even if it is only an unimportant branch of the company, it is enough to be complacent, but arrogance does not mean that everyone's mind is full of water, Batavia's Europeans barely exceed 10,000, and there are quite a few warships! But the standing army has only three or four thousand troops, and it is still scattered all over the island, and it is necessary to suppress the Sultan.
When the Chinese took Taiwan, the Dutch governor reluctantly mobilized more than a thousand people and several ships to support, and before they arrived, they met the released army.
"Thanks to" the previous anti-Chinese riots, the Dutch secretly gathered their own people to avoid possible harm, and took the opportunity to integrate many people into the army, thinking that they had the confidence to expel the Chinese ashore.
"How dare they, their emissaries are still in Holland, and without us they simply cannot gain a foothold in Europe! These infidels! ”
"I'll tell you all over again!" The Dutch governor spoke to the envoys.
The Dutch governor did not give up the way to solve the problem through diplomatic means, in fact, these colonists were not smooth sailing in the face of the natives, and many times had the opportunity to be overturned and pushed down, relying on various vicious strategies to barely maintain, so he had to understand what happened from the beginning, see what went wrong, and whether he could find a way to separate these Chinese.
"Yes, Lord Governor!" Several envoys were about to tell the story of what had happened to the Chinese army from beginning to end.
They added fuel to the fire by talking about the rudeness and neglect of the Chinese, especially since there were no important people to meet them in person, and only one petty officer was sent, and even this petty officer did not take their noble people of God into account, and they had just finished speaking, and they were expelled without receiving any answer.
From beginning to end, these people spoke of the arrogance of the Chinese, but their own arrogance was not mentioned, especially their threatening words, and in their view, in the name of God, they themselves could take away from the infidels, and the so-called peace was only a temporary perfunctory.
When the Dutch governor heard this, his brows immediately furrowed.
The Chinese are so arrogant, it really surprised him, this has seriously hurt the honor of their Kingdom of the Netherlands, generally speaking, should face their crusade, but the Chinese are not weak, not able to crusade casually, in fact, if the opposite side is his own people in the European civil war, not lowly heretics, he has long been ready to surrender, only racism can support him to fight to the end.
"You didn't name the price the Governor offered?" The Dutch governor asked angrily.
The Dutchmen looked at each other, all looking a little flustered.
According to the inspiration he got from a few traitors before, at least those scholars said, in China, the status of the military is extremely low, and they are suppressed and exploited all the time, and the soldiers who have made military achievements will be regarded as potential rebels, so they are ready to put a price on the Dutch kingdom is willing to support the general who holds military power as the emperor of China, as long as he becomes the "son emperor" of the Dutch, the East India Company can have extraterritoriality in China and occupy the colony, then everything is easy.
Afterwards, naturally, it was a little bit of sand to get the technology of the Chinese and make it their own.
As the descendants of the northern barbarians, after they destroyed the Roman Empire, they can still claim to be Rome in the open, this is them.
In fact, these envoys were also cheated by those traitor literati.
They kept boasting about the wealth of China, hoping to seduce foreign races to attack China, so that they could take the opportunity to go home with their eyebrows raised, and at the same time, they also said that the Chinese tradition, for anyone who flaunts the banner of foreigners, is to kneel and lick the abnormal, measure China's material resources, and form a friendship with the country, therefore, the Chinese officials did not meet them in person, which made them feel insulted, and the original hope of making a fortune was gone, and they naturally wanted to show the strength of the Dutch Kingdom first, so they did not say this stubble.
Of course, the envoys didn't say anything, and Batavia was already crazy at this time.
How many people can be killed by three snipers training?
More than a hundred is already very reluctant, even if it will be surprised at first, but after concentrating on the body, the appearance of several corpses scattered on the ground can be seen by any European, which is the effect of some kind of terrible musket.
Unlike the glorified gunshot wounds in later generations, no matter how many bullets Xiao Ma and the others have hit, they can still resist the enemy, and the ejection effect of the bullet warhead can break people into pieces.
The power of the sniper rifle made all the European soldiers dare not take the lead, and some people barely fired indiscriminately, and they could not hit the target, and most of them also forgot their accusations and fled frantically, not to mention, in the process, the most dead were the officers.
The death of the officers contributed to the chaos in the army, and for the time being, Batavia had lost its order.
The Dutch, who originally wanted to kill all the Han people and take the opportunity to make money, panicked at this time, but after the warship was cleaned up, there was basically no way to escape.
At such a moment, how can everyone have a small family, orders are not carried out, senior officers are basically unable to find their own soldiers after killing a considerable number of junior officers, and most of the troops are in chaos and difficult to regroup.
After repeated grinding, Batavia's sea and land defense capabilities were basically destroyed, and at this time, the main play began.
