The mountain road is difficult to walk, but a team is moving at a very fast speed.

In this procession, all of them were native, some of them pulled in front with horse ropes, others waved their whips and beat in the back, driving the mules and horses loaded with supplies, almost trotting forward. But because of the excessive speed, someone turned on his back. As you can see, this speed is a bit overloaded.

However, Lakawa, who was in charge of going to the Dutch camp to communicate first, was not satisfied with this speed, and from time to time scolded his subordinates to ask them to speed up again. Because he knew that the Ming army was menacing, and they had to unite with the Dutch as soon as possible to defeat them when the Ming army was not firmly established. Otherwise, so many troops would be far more difficult to fight than the Portuguese.

Of course, the most important thing is that Rajsingh II is leading the army behind, and if Rajsinghe II is caught up by Rajsinghe II slowly, he will definitely be punished for incompetence. At such a critical time, if he is convicted, not only will his future be difficult to protect, but he may even be tempted to kill chickens and monkeys, and treat him as a typical example, which will be miserable.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry up and ......" In the team, his hurried shouts rang from time to time.

In this way, in a hurry, the team finally reached the seashore as fast as possible, and came to the Dutch camp.

This time, Rajesingh II was very generous and gave a lot of food at once. You must know that in the past, in order to limit the ambitions of the Dutch, Rajesingh II gave the Dutch the least amount of food, so that they had no food to save, so that they could choke the Dutch by the neck and not be bitten by this white-eyed wolf.

Lavaca finally had a smile on his face, believing that he would be warmly welcomed by the Dutch this time. In this way, the subsequent discussion of attacking the Ming army will also become easier to discuss.

He also dealt with these Dutchmen a lot, and thought he had seen it through.

These Dutchmen are completely outlaws, as long as there are interests and advantages to take advantage of, they will definitely participate, even if they are not allowed to participate, they will come like cats that smell fish. In short, they want money rather than death. This is confirmed by their previous wars against the Portuguese.

Turn the mountain pass ahead and you will see the Dutch camp.

Lavaca could not contain his excitement, and with a swing of his whip and a clamp between his legs, he jumped to the front of the group, and was the first to turn the pass and look intently at the Dutch camp.

If you count it in terms of time, I'm afraid that the Dutch at this time probably already knew the news that Colombo was occupied by the Ming army, right? It is estimated that they have seen so many Ming warships, and now they are also feeling unprecedented pressure. At this time, send food, re-conclude the alliance, and believe that the Dutch will be better able to speak!

As he thought so, Lavaca could already see movement in his line of sight.

I saw where the Dutch camp was, and the figures seemed to be a little chaotic. On the coastline in the distance, as if in the direction of Colombo, warships were heading towards the camp.

"Hehe, that's true!" When Lavaca saw this, he couldn't help but show the look that I had guessed, and said to himself, "The Dutch are feeling the pressure, and it is precisely when they need the help of my army of the Kingdom of Kandy. This white-eyed wolf will definitely not mess around at this time! ”

After finishing talking to himself, he waved his hand back and said, "Hurry up, hurry up, it's coming soon!" ”

After saying that, Lavaka felt that he could not wait, so he called a few of his cronies and ordered them to follow with the food. As for himself, as soon as he urged his crotch to dismount, he hurried to the Dutch camp with a few retinues.

When he was about to arrive at the Dutch camp, Lavaca was a little surprised. If in the past, when approaching the Dutch camp, there were Dutch sentinels who issued warnings, but at this time, they were so close to the Dutch camp, why didn't they even see a sentry?

Oh, by the way, the Ming army must have come from the sea, and naturally there will be no on this shore, and it is possible that the Dutch have concentrated their forces on the sea side. With this in mind, Lavaca drove his horse straight to the west gate of the Dutch camp, which was facing the mountains.

As a sign of respect for the Dutch, Lavaca dismounted and walked as he approached the door. But what made him a little curious was why there were no Dutch sentinels at the entrance of the camp.

Passing through the gates of the camp, Lavaca was surprised to find that the camp was in turmoil. The Dutch, including their families, were all scurrying around like headless flies. And some of them rushed out of the house, carrying parcels or sacks of things, and rushed to the port. From time to time, he stopped and shouted something in a panic.

Seeing the situation in front of him, he immediately remembered a similar scene, that is, before attacking a tribe, the people of that tribe had to flee for their lives, and this was the case.

As soon as he got this association, Lavaca's eyes widened in surprise, this can't be! The Dutch didn't have powerful guns and warships, and when they faced the Portuguese before, even if there were more Portuguese, they were not afraid, and even rushed one by one, which was the impression of outlaws!

When it was impossible to face the Ming army, they were so timid as mice, this can't be to run away, right?

Lavaca really couldn't figure out what was going on with what he was seeing in front of him.

If you don't understand, then you have to ask.

Lavaca asked his entourage to look at his horse, and he hurried into the Dutch camp, grabbed a Dutch officer who had just jumped out of the house with a large bag, and hurriedly squeezed out a smile and asked, "Excuse me, what's the matter?" ”

"!" When the Dutch officer saw that it was a native who was blocking the way, and could not hear his bird language, he cursed in Dutch, and could not even wait for the native in front of him to give way, so he jumped over and ran to the sea.

"......" Lavaca couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he saw this.

Although they couldn't understand each other just now, he could feel the panic in the Dutch officer who had no one in his eyes. They...... Are they really running for their lives?

Thinking so, he came back to his senses, and just happened to see another Dutchman passing by, so he hurriedly went to stop him, wanting to ask for clarification.

However, none of the Dutch people had the intention of stopping and communicating with him, all of them spoke Dutch, and from their demeanor they could see that it should be cursing, and then ran past him. Among them, there was even a Dutchman who went to get the short gun at his waist, and frightened Avaka to run away.

Hiding to the side, Avaka stared at the panic in front of him, he was a little stupid.

What the hell is going on? Could it be that the Ming army is really very powerful, and the Dutch have not even fought with the Ming army, and they are already scared to flee, right? If that's the case, what about the Kingdom of Kandy?

Suddenly, a voice sounded in his ear: "Huh? What are you here for? ”

When Avaka heard it, he was overjoyed, he was a Dutchman who knew a little of their language, and he had been in charge of contact with them before, and he had dealt with him a few times.

So, he hurriedly asked, "I am ordered by His Royal Highness the King to come with grain and grass to reward your army. His Royal Highness the King himself arrived with a large army to discuss how to face a new enemy......"

When the Dutchman heard that Avaka had come with food and supplies, he couldn't help but have a hint of joy on his face. And he looked out at the gate of the camp. Sure enough, in the distance, I saw a team of indigenous horses coming.

So, without waiting for Avaka to finish, he turned his head to look at it, and then shouted loudly, as if to greet his accomplices.

Sure enough, at the sound of his shout, the other Dutchmen stopped, and they were also turning their heads to look in the direction of the door.

Although they were all greeting in their own words, Avaka could not understand, but he could probably guess that these Dutchmen still cared about the food he sent.

Thinking like this, Avaka couldn't help but have a thought: Could it be that these Dutchmen felt that the food and grass were not enough to deal with the Ming army, and they thought that the relationship with their side was not harmonious before, so they thought about escaping?

In fact, both sides are well aware of this point in the relationship between the two sides, and if it were not for the common enemy of the Portuguese, maybe both sides would have turned their faces.

Now it would be best to use food to lure them to stay, and the two sides continue to cooperate and defeat the Ming army together. Thinking like this, Avaka couldn't help but smile: it seems that he has made a meritorious contribution this time, and he has to come over in time to promote the continuation of the alliance!

While he was thinking this, he suddenly heard a loud commotion in the direction of the port. Not only him, but also the rest of the Dutch, all looked over there.

The shouts of many Dutchmen came from that side. Although I can't understand it, the panic in the words is very clear, and anyone can hear it as soon as they hear it.

After a while, all the Dutchmen here ran to the port like crazy, and even some of the Dutch, in order to run faster, lost their big bags and small bags of things.

Lavaca was dumbfounded, but he soon discovered that it turned out to be a lookout post in the port, and that traces of the Ming fleet had been discovered. Even if he looked at it with the naked eye, he could see that there was a fleet of the Ming army coming towards the sea in the distance.

Why, why are they scared like this? They all ran away, how can they explain themselves to His Royal Highness?

Thinking so, Lavaca became anxious, and stopped the Dutchman who could speak indigenous words, and even drew his sword against him, not letting him go, and asking him to give an explanation.

The Dutchman had no choice but to hurriedly say to him: "Let's just say that you two tribes usually fight each other, and there is no difference between victory and defeat. Suddenly, your king is leading a great army to destroy these two tribes, and you say, "What is the use of these two tribes if they are united?" ”

After finishing speaking, seeing that Avaka didn't seem to understand the meaning, he was anxious, so he said loudly: "We Dutch and Portuguese are all your villages, and it's okay to fight each other, but the Ming army is the army of your kingdom, how do you say to fight?" The strength of the Ming Kingdom is not at all what you natives can imagine! ”
