Major General Bi Li listened to the scout's report, and the general was suspicious enough to raise the telescope and observe in the direction of Chijizhu Castle for a while. Even he could clearly see Lieutenant Colonel Keitel pull out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

scolded disdainfully: "This coward, the attack of the natives scared him out." Ordered the troops to form a line of troops and quickly approach Zeng Wenxi. ”

He didn't know that Keitel also scolded in his heart: "Bi Li, you idiot, won't you send someone to the city to take a look?" ”

The two reinforced teams obviously believed his words, quickly organized their teams, and rushed towards Zeng Wenxi in the west of the city by bypassing the Red Embedded Bamboo City in the north and south.

Zeng Wenxi is in the west of Chichizhu City, and there are two bridges on the nearby river, one is located in the south of Chichizhu City, and the other is located in the direction of the north of Chichizhu City. In the middle of the two bridges, there is now a large group of Ming soldiers in bright armor, constantly firing cannons and firing muskets. The sound of "boom and bang" was also very lively, perhaps they did not realize that they were now in the middle of the two bridges.

The two support armies of the Dutch had apparently discovered the Ming army that was "attacking" the city regardless of life or death, but they did not attack in formation, nor did they enter the city to help defend it, but the whole army accelerated towards the two bridges. Obviously, they want to cut off the back road of this "bold" Ming army.

The Ming soldiers, who had been shooting at Chichizhu Castle, did not seem to notice the Dutch reinforcements approaching from both sides. Still shooting at Chichizhu Castle.

And the eight cannons in this direction on the forts of the two fortresses in the Red Bamboo City were still roaring incessantly. Keitel watched as the two self-conceived Dutch armies advanced faster and faster towards the bridge. I couldn't help but secretly worry about them, they must be worried that the Ming army on the opposite side would be dispersed by their own artillery fire, so that they would have less chance of meritorious service.

"Stupid, my cannons here are all empty cannons with no shells."

And the shells in the team of the Ming army by the river kept exploding, and those shells were taken out by the soldiers of the special forces just after the Chiji City was captured, and they were put in a cannon battle by the river at this moment!

"Hurry up, hurry up" Major General Bili, who led the reinforcements on the southern route, while urging his subordinates, twisted and looked at Chichicheng, and scolded loudly: "Keitel, this idiot, won't you stop the artillery fire now and attract those indigenous forces?" You idiot, I'll remove him from my post when I turn around.

Fortunately, the Ming army in the middle obviously belonged to the kind of guy who "hit the end", and until this moment he still didn't notice the Dutch army approaching from both wings. In the telescope, Major Matthew also urged the troops to advance quickly, and the only thing in his mind was to advance to the bridgehead as soon as possible and block the enemy's retreat.

It wasn't until the two reinforcements approached the two bridges that Major General Billy and Major Matthew breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, the "Ming army" attacking Chijizhu City noticed the approaching Dutch army from both directions. All of a sudden, there were cries and shouts in the ranks, and the sound reached miles away. As if they had found that they could not retreat by either way of retreat, the soldiers of the "Ming Army" jumped down the river one after another and swam to the opposite bank.

At this time, the drums of the emergency assembly sounded again in the red embedded bamboo city.

Major General Bi Li looked at the figure of the "Ming army" swimming quickly to the opposite bank in the river, and thought to himself that if he stepped up the pace of his troops at this moment, he would definitely be able to stop the tail of the enemy's rout on the other side of the river. Behind him, there are Keitel's troops who chased out the Red Embedded Bamboo City and tried to grab the merit, and they have no worries at all.

"The order was to have the troops cross the river quickly, intercept the enemy's rout on the other side of the river, and quickly attack and advance. Inform Matthew that we are going on both sides, and that Keitel should send men to defend the two bridgeheads. The signalman took out the signal flag and waved it a little higher on the side.

In the mind of Major General Bili, he was convinced that what he had just seen was only a small outpost of the enemy, and that the enemy's brigade should be somewhere on the opposite bank, intending to capture the city of Chichizhu and then besiege the city of Geranza. As a major general of the Marine Corps, who had never paid attention to the indigenous armies of the East, he naturally would not retreat in the face of the enemy's attack.

Keitel, who was at the head of the Red Embedded Bamboo City, saw the banner and sighed in his heart, "It's over!" ”

Major General Bi Li led his soldiers and quickly ran up the bridge to the opposite bank, and the "Ming army" in the river saw their brigade on the bridge, and it seemed that they did not know where to flee, and the water in the river would certainly not be able to escape the Dutch soldiers who passed quickly on the two bridges, and they would ...... when they turned back.

Major General Bi Li, who quickly crossed the bridge, did not believe that the "Ming army" who came to attack was only one person in the river, even if a large number of Ming troops were killed on the shore, at best, only about 1,000 people, and his intuition told him that the enemy's brigade was still ahead. He was right about his instincts, but he didn't tell him what kind of troops he would face.

After crossing the river, Major General Billy's troops quickly joined forces with Major Matthew's. At this time, he took one last look back at the riverbank, and the "Ming army" that was still fluttering in the river was obviously swimming back again, they were planning to surrender to the Dutch army that came out of the red bamboo city over there! Major General Bi Li sighed softly, it seems that this time Keitel's stupid guy not only can't be dismissed, but he will also be rewarded this time.

Three thousand Dutch soldiers who had crossed the river formed an attack formation and advanced forward. Follow the instincts of Major General Bili to search forward.

To the sound of snare drums, the Royal Dutch Marines, who were well-dressed and moved in unison, were in high spirits. Before that, Billy had left some 200 Dutch soldiers by the river, and told them to search the river between the two bridges, capture all the remnants of the "Ming army", and if they were still on the river, shoot them back to the opposite bank.

As if the reality wanted to prove Major General Bi Li's guess, in the distance ahead, the sound of Ming army guns was heard.

Chen Tianzhong's chariots were lined up in three neat attack clusters on the left, center, and right on the plains in the southern part of the wide island. The soldiers were taking out some of the three-eyed guns or bird guns commonly used by the Ming army to keep them in the sky. In their opinion, these things that require ignition cannot be called weapons at all, and they are almost the same as playing in artillery battles.

"Bang bang ......" continued to sound, and Zhong Mo, who had just arranged everything here and rushed to the front, looked unhappy.

Chen Tianpet knew that Zhong Mo was unhappy, so he hurriedly handed the three-eyed gun that he was playing happily with in his hand to Zhong Mo and said: "Brother, don't be upset, you see that if you don't come, I won't do anything, come and play with two cannons......!" ”
