"Click, click......" There is a breaking sound when stepping on a branch, and if you accidentally step on the hollow ground covered by a dead branch, it is possible to break your foot.

However, the Dutch leader West didn't care, and just asked the indigenous leader Fidnandi: "How long are those Ming people hiding?" ”

As he said this, he turned his head to look back, and he could no longer see the city of Manila. It is estimated that it is impossible to return to the city today, and I will have to spend the night in this desolate mountain forest.

However, he immediately remembered that there were a lot of remnants of the Ming people hiding here, and when the time came, he would pill on the silver dollar and sleep with those Ming women in his arms, which would not be too bad, so he didn't care about staying in the mountains and forests all night.

"If you go back to Your Excellency, it is estimated that you will arrive after another mountain." Fidnandi hurriedly smiled and pointed to the front and said, "My people, after which side of the hill are there, there is no news." ”

When West heard this, he looked up, and then ordered: "Send some men to drive along the mountain beams, and drive them to the sea on the other side of the mountain, regardless of where the Ming people are hiding." Move fast and finish it when it's dark. ”

In this forest, his musketeers did not play to their advantage. But if you get to the seaside with no obstruction in sight, no matter how many remnants of the Ming people are, you can shoot them with a platoon.

When Fidnandi heard this, he hurriedly accepted the order, and then turned his head and shouted.

When the natives heard the order, they were all a little reluctant.

Now they have a good way to go, but it is already difficult to walk, and it is even more difficult to climb to the ridge, no one wants to, but there is no way.

So, they walked slowly, but they also climbed up.

"Ah......" A miserable scream sounded, which was particularly harsh in this mountain forest.

When they heard the sound, they saw a native lying on his back with an arrow stuck in his chest.

"There's someone up ahead!" Immediately, a native grunted.

However, he was greeted by another arrow, which "swished" at him. However, he saw it and quickly dodged, only to shoot him in the arm.

"Mingren, it's Mingren!" Seeing this, many natives not only did not fear, but became excited, and began to chase after them regardless of the danger.

"Whoosh ......"

From time to time, bows and arrows were shot from the mountains and forests, and several natives were shot in succession. However, these natives were still not afraid, and at most they chased after them with their rudimentary shields.

Seeing this, Fidnandi was also overjoyed, and hurriedly said to West: "Your Excellency, those Ming people finally can't hide!" ”

That's a good sign! Of course, West was also happy, and when he saw his prey, he waved his hand and shouted: "Chase, chase, chase......"

So, Fednandi took the natives, regardless of whether the mountains and forests were difficult to walk or not, and chased them forward. West, with his two hundred or so men, was behind, stepping on the path that the natives in front had stepped on, and hurried unhurriedly.

It's as if they were hunting leisurely, and the natives were their hounds, helping them chase their prey.

In this mountain forest, the sound of broken branches and the gurgling of the natives suddenly sounded. However, no one noticed such a big movement, it stands to reason that there should be some birds in the mountains and forests, and there was no movement.

Chasing all the way, more than 300 natives, one after another "whooping" sounds, with joy and excitement, and pride. It's as if the harvest is just around the corner.

However, all of a sudden, the natives who were chasing the front immediately heard a scream of "ahhhhhhhh At the same time, there was the sound of rolling over and falling in the mountains and forests.

Fidnandi was also chasing excitedly, and suddenly heard that something was wrong, and hurriedly looked up. It's just that the obstruction of the trees hinders his vision and makes him unable to see the situation ahead.

However, he couldn't see clearly, and it didn't prevent him from making a judgment, so he immediately shouted: "Those Ming people are dying and struggling, what are you afraid of, rush me!" ”

When the subordinates beside him heard this, they hurriedly agreed loudly, also to give themselves courage, and then they wanted to speed up and rush forward.

However, before they could rush over, they saw that the accomplices in front of them were running backwards like crazy, regardless of the thorns or branches, they only tried to run backwards as fast as possible, and even rolled and climbed, which was not spectacular.

At this moment, Fidnandi was dumbfounded. What's going on? How do you feel that they have met a tiger, and it is not a tiger, it is a group of tigers!

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw that many of the accomplices who fled back screamed "ah" and threw themselves to the ground and convulsed. At this time, he could see clearly that those accomplices who had fallen to the ground had arrows stuck in their backs.

"Huh......" Fidnandi couldn't help but gasp, how many Ming people are hiding here, how can there be so many people who can shoot arrows?

Subconsciously looked up, and this time, he finally saw something through the cracks in the trees: I saw a lot of people in red clothes, coming this way, not in a hurry. Some of them continued to shoot arrows with bows and arrows in hand; others with swords and shields stood before the archers; There were also pikemen, those who were wounded on the ground and fell to the ground......

Armour?!

Seeing this clearly, Fidnandi gasped, this ...... This is the army?

Even if he was the chief of a large tribe on this side of Luzon, he didn't have much armor in his hands. This kind of thing can only be equipped with elite soldiers who are more powerful than him.

Don't...... Could it be the Ming Army? Fidnandi had never seen the Ming army, but no matter what, he had always heard of what the Ming army was like, and the recent situation was that the Ming army was coming to fight Luzon, so it was natural to associate it.

As soon as he got this conclusion, he didn't care why the Ming army appeared in this mountain, and he was so frightened that he turned around and fled, that speed, he really deserved to be a chief.

At the same time, the Dutch, who were following them unhurriedly, also heard the movement coming from the front and felt the panic screams of the natives.

That didn't make them nervous, though. It's still giggling, the only thing that has changed is that many people stopped and looked in front of them to talk.

"These natives are really cowardly, and they are scared by a few Ming people!"

"This is actually expected, don't look at our Ming people in Batavia so deferential, but I heard that in the past, the Ming people dominated the South Seas."

"I've also heard that after the Ming pirates fled to the South Seas, they almost wiped out the Spaniards."

"So, I heard that when the Spaniards slaughtered the Ming people for the first time, they first bought the iron weapons in the hands of the Ming people at a high price, and then they dared to do it to the Ming people."

"That's too, we just haven't fought the Ming Kingdom, we can only be here in Nanyang. Otherwise, I heard that the country is very prosperous, and there is an infinite amount of wealth......"

“……”

These Dutch colonists, instead of helping the natives who were their accomplices, laughed at them and envied the wealth of the great empire of the Far East.

Their leader, West, was no exception, just with a look of disdain, watching as the natives in front of him turned and fled.

But soon, when he saw that not one or two fleeing natives appeared in his field of vision, but all the natives who appeared in his field of vision, they were fleeing backwards with the strength of milk, the smile on his face slowly froze, and he felt that something was wrong.

"Alert, alert...... "West shouted, his eyes widened as he watched the movement ahead.

To be honest, he was a little confused.

There are about 300 of those natives, and how many Ming people are left? It can't be more than these natives, even if there are more, there will definitely be no more young people! What are these natives doing to eat, and they are scared like this?

Just thinking about it, the natives were closer to the Dutch. One by one, they shouted and shouted, but because of the language, they couldn't say it clearly. However, the panic on their faces is contagious.

When the Dutchmen saw this, they all smiled at last, and one by one they became nervous, and hurriedly clenched the flintlock pistols in their hands, trying to deal with the possible danger.

However, those fleeing natives, one by one, desperately escaped, they simply didn't care about the ground, and after a while, they rushed into the Dutch side, and their originally untidy formation was swept away, and even many Dutch people were washed down by those natives.

West was also nervous, and just happened to see Fidnandi running backwards, and hurriedly shouted to ask what was going on.

As he ran, Fidnandi shouted: "Run, Ming army, it's the Ming army coming, run......"

He knows Spanish, however, it is not standard, and the tone of voice shouted in a panic is even more outrageous.

This made West ponder for a while in confusion, and then suddenly he was shocked, Ming Jun?

got this result with a high probability, but he couldn't figure it out, how could there be a Ming army on this mountain? Even if the Ming army came, wouldn't they attack Manila first?

Subconsciously looked up, but he didn't see the figure of the Ming army. However, the "whizzing" arrows from the cracks in the woods, constantly shooting the fleeing natives to the ground, very clearly conveyed a very dangerous signal.

Seeing this, West was finally afraid, he didn't know how many Ming troops were chasing him, and he immediately turned around, and when he thought about ordering a retreat, he felt a pain in his cheeks, and he couldn't speak at all, so he fell to the ground.

I saw that in his face, an arrow hit him in the cheek, and the arrow was exposed on the other side.

Not only him, but also many Dutchmen, all of whom were shot and fell to the ground.

Those who were not hit by the arrows turned to look in the direction of the ridge in surprise, and saw a faint innumerable red color between the gaps in the trees.

"Woo Woo ......"

The Dutch instinctively fought back, however, they were actually surrounded by the Ming army, so what was the use of dying and struggling?
