1141 dry monkeys
In fact, in Cao Bianjiao's eyes, even the combat power of these Spaniards is not in his eyes. If he had brought the new army over, it wouldn't have taken much effort to annihilate them!
This is not to say that Cao Bianjiao is proud, but the fact is almost so.
These colonizers in the West, in addition to their real combat effectiveness at sea, can only bully the natives of various places on land. Both the Dutch and the Portuguese had thoughts about the Ming Dynasty and wanted to colonize by force like other places, but without one exception, they were all defeated by the local army south of the Ming Dynasty.
And the new army led by Cao Bianjiao is the elite of the Ming Dynasty, and the advanced firearms are better than the firearms in the hands of these Xiyi in Nanyang. What's more, it is estimated that even the Manchus can't beat these Xiyi on land. With just such a small number of people, they can be destroyed without expending.
However, after all, the Luzon Ming people did not have any military experience, and Cao Bianjiao could only follow a more secure method to guide. continued to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of both sides for Zhang Wu, and asked him to persuade others, and then implement the established strategy.
……
"Silence, silence!" Zhang Wu slapped the table, causing everyone in the courtyard to immediately fall silent.
After that, with the help of the afterglow of the setting sun, he glanced at the people in front of him and said solemnly: "Do you think that with blood and courage alone, we can defeat our enemies? It's okay with the Bangbangya, but what about the Spaniards? If we ......"
He basically copied what Cao Bianjiao said and told these people in the courtyard again.
Most of them nodded their heads again and again, of course, there were also some young people who were not convinced and opened their mouths to speak, however, at this time, Zhang Wu had already finished talking about Cao Bianjiao's words, and finally added: "These truths are all said by Yongwubo!" ”
As soon as they heard this, those young people who were a little unconvinced immediately shut up. If you are not convinced, can you still be stronger than Yongwubo? He is the commander of the most elite army in the world!
Zhang Wu saw that everyone was convinced, so he emphasized the next things again. Big guys, what should they do, all do their own things!
As night fell, Coqueira, the Spanish governor of Luzon, looked at the Ming Manor in the distance and couldn't help frowning. He didn't expect that his leader had already appeared outside the manor, but the Ming people inside the courtyard wall were not panicked, logically speaking, it shouldn't be!
Thinking like this, he remembered the events of the day again, and it seemed that it shouldn't be! It stands to reason that when the Ming people heard the news that the army was coming, how could they have the courage to go out of the manor, run to the side of the hill to ambush, and go to almost all the young and strong at one time, aren't they afraid that stealing chickens and rice will not lead to rice, and all the young and strong will be explained to the side of the hill? The most strange thing is that these Ming people actually accept it when they see it, which is really rare!
When there was an American side, even if it was an indigenous army, if it encountered such a situation, it would definitely chase and kill it all the time! But these Ming people were able to resist the temptation of chasing and killing, and they didn't chase out the forest and appear in front of their eyes, so they retreated!
Although according to the information he had, Coqueira should only be able to do business to make money, but now he has a hunch that there are definitely people among the Ming people who know how to fight! The means that are being shown today are definitely not something that can be done just by being smart and making money.
Suddenly, Coqueira felt the need to test again.
So, he immediately gave the order. It didn't take long for the Spaniards to launch an artillery cannon and start firing from a good distance.
With a "boom" sound, an iron egg shot out and smashed on the wall of the manor, making a "boom" sound.
The caliber of the field guns pulled over with the army was a bit small, and its power was obviously insufficient, except for knocking down some clods of soil, it did not collapse the courtyard wall at once.
Coqueira carefully observed the movement on the other side of the courtyard wall, and there was no surprise, there was a commotion from inside, which made him feel relieved, these Ming people are still the Ming people in his impression, and they are a little panicked when they encounter something sudden, and they are not well-trained soldiers.
"Boom" There was another cannon shot, and this time, the iron egg smashed into the upper part of the courtyard wall, and the wall was finally smashed down a small place. On Coquela's side, you can clearly hear Akito's panicked voice, very flustered.
This made Coqueira smile, and he couldn't help but think about attacking overnight.
So, he was about to give the order to let the Bangbangya people try it, and if they could attack it, it would be the best, and let the Bangbangya and Ming people fight until dawn, and then the Spaniards would take the rest of the army to clean up the mess.
Then, at this moment, there was a sudden silence in the courtyard wall, and then I saw that there was a sack of earth in it, and it was in the place where the wall had collapsed.
Seeing this situation, Coqueira couldn't help but immediately become vigilant, this must be a capable person among the Ming people who knows how to fight, so he has such a response. If this is the case, it is estimated that the Bangbangya people who took advantage of the darkness to touch the past will not be able to bargain.
Thinking so, he didn't call back the Bang Bang Ya people. Anyway, Bang Bangya people died when they died, and he didn't care at all.
Sure enough, to his surprise, the Bang Bang Ya people who touched him like monkeys, when they were very close to the courtyard wall and exposed to the firelight, did not have time to charge, when they heard the sound of a bowstring, and then, when they saw the Bang Bang Ya people in the front, they immediately fell a few.
This seemed to be a signal, and when the rest of the Bangbangya people saw it, they immediately jumped up and ran back like rabbits with their tails stepped on. Even among the Bangbangya people who fell to the ground, there were those who got up and ran back.
Inside the wall, Niu Dazhuang saw this situation and couldn't help sighing: "There is still no material, if you can make the power of a real military crossbow in the army, then you can let these monkeys escape back!" ”
The difference between a crossbow and a bow is that ordinary people can shoot enemies at close range with a little familiarity, but bows and arrows are not. The crossbows they are currently using are all craftsmen among the Ming people, and they are made according to the guidance of Zhang Wu, or the guidance of the craftsmen of the War Bureau. To replace it with a domestic one, it is obviously an unqualified product, but it has to be used to kill the enemy here.
After Niu Dazhuang finished speaking, he instructed one of his apprentices: "Go, send back all the crossbows in question, let them repair them, and divide them all if they have done a good job." ”
After whispering the order, he turned to the wise man in the ditch behind him and said, "You all don't care, sleep in peace." If the enemy is attacking, you pikemen will be dispatched. The night is still long, so now have a good rest! ”
Basic knowledge of warfare, Niu Dazhuang was born as a military household Xiaoqi, and he still has a certain understanding. Otherwise, with Zhang Wu alone, it is estimated that he will die of exhaustion.
After Zhang Wu finished speaking, he whispered an order to an apprentice, telling him to take care of this place, leave the Spaniards alone, and do as he did just now, and then he began to inspect other places along the courtyard wall.
The Spaniards only had one cannon sounded, and it was clear that there was no intention of attacking, they were haphazard!
Coqueira obviously had no intention of continuing to play, and after verifying his guesses, he ordered no more cannons. He commanded Afaros, the leader of the Bangbangya people, who had come in a panic for fear of being punished: "Sleep at night and be careful, these Ming people are not very easy to deal with. When you get enough sleep tonight, and tomorrow you will blast the courtyard wall with artillery, and you will use all your strength to rush in and kill people, understand? ”
When Afaros heard this, he nodded hurriedly, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, fortunately the Governor didn't care about the escape of those damn men just now.
The night gradually deepened, and the sounds outside the manor fell silent, as if everyone had fallen asleep under the cover of night.
But at this moment, suddenly there was a thunderclap on the ground, and in the silent night, all kinds of gongs and drums suddenly sounded, as well as the roars and shouts of the Ming people. This momentum is so loud that it feels like a tiger.
In the camp where they had just fallen asleep, the Spaniards were fine, and there were officers on duty shouting, but there was not much confusion. Even the camp of the Japanese people, after the panic after the initial awakening, quickly calmed down. However, the camp of those Bangbangya people is already in chaos.
During the day, they fought a great defeat and did not have a good rest from beginning to end. At this moment, I had just fallen asleep, and before I had time to have a nightmare, I was suddenly awakened.
Hearing the familiar shouts of killing as in the daytime, good fellows, one by one, like real monkeys, jumped up like climbing a tree, scurrying around like headless flies. This camp is in chaos all of a sudden.
And the initiator of the panic, the Akito in the manor, didn't know when there was no sound, as if they hadn't done anything, and were sleeping from beginning to end.
Coqueira, who was awakened, looked at Akito's manor with a gloomy face, and then turned his head to look at the chaotic camp of the Bangbangya people, not to mention how depressed he was. Not to mention how strong the opponent is, but there are teammates like pigs, but it is an iron-clad fact, it is really like eating a fly.
The Ming people did not attack, and after tossing, the Bang Bang Ya people finally stopped with a sweat. And Afalus was also reprimanded by the people sent by Coquera, telling them to calm down and not be startled at every turn. Does the Ming still dare to go out of the manor and take the initiative to send it to the door?
I don't know how long it took to toss, but finally, inside and outside the manor, it slowly returned to quiet. It seems that the uproar just now has never happened.
However, inside the courtyard wall, Niu Dazhuang, who had been watching the movement outside, turned his head with a smile and said to the people inside: "Get up, get up, get ready to work!" ”
Hearing this voice, all of a sudden, the gong and drum team got ready, and there were many bright people with loud voices, obviously with a smile on their faces, and they looked at Niu Dazhuang.
Niu Dazhuang was also smiling, raised his hand high, looked at everyone, and waved down violently.
Suddenly, the silence of the night was immediately broken. The sound of "killing", the sound of beating gongs and drums, suddenly sounded again.
No accident, the camp of the Bangbangya people was tossed again. Although I wasn't as flustered as the first time, it was still a mess. However, compared to the last panic, the time has finally been shortened.
Affalos was once again warned by the annoyed Coquilla: "Mingren This is a plan to disturb the army, don't be fooled, otherwise how will you have the physical strength to fight tomorrow!" “
Afalus himself understood, and hurriedly promised again and again that there would be no more chaos.
The movement in his camp was too big, and it also affected several other camps, so he didn't have a good rest. He understands that if he commits the wrath of the people, he will shed his skin tomorrow if he does not die.
At some point, the night fell silent again.
But Coqueira couldn't sleep, he pondered, false and real, it is very likely that the Akito, under the command of that cunning opponent, will really come to steal the camp next time. This must be guarded against.
So, he quietly gave the order to go, and on the occasion near the camp of the Bangbangya, on the side of the manor, four groups of musketeers were ambushed. If the Ming people sneak out of the manor to visit the camp, they must be told to remember this lesson!
When everything was ready, Coqueyla looked at the time, only to see that it was almost dawn. He looked at the time and couldn't help yawning, almost being tossed for a day and a night, really a little tired.
So, he instructed his subordinates: "If there is any movement from the Ming people, tell them immediately." ”
After that, I went back to the tent and squinted for a while.
However, just as Coquela was about to fall asleep, Akito repeated his old trick again, shouting and beating gongs and drums. This time, either he was too tired, or he was numb, or he was already calm, anyway, this time he didn't receive much effect.
Coqueira, who was surprised, hurriedly came over and asked the musket team, "Have you seen Mingren touch it?" ”
"Back to Your Excellency the Governor, no!" His men replied, "The Ming people have lit a big fire, and if someone comes out, we can see it clearly, and we will definitely not lose our eyes." ”
When Corquila heard the prestige, he realized that as his subordinates expected, in the manor of the Ming people, a little different from the previous times, a big fire was indeed lit, even if he was here, he could see it clearly.
"What does that mean?" When Coquilla saw it, he was a little puzzled, what the hell are these Ming people doing?
Lighting a fire and exposing yourself to the fire, how can you steal the camp?
He was wondering when he suddenly saw a fire out of the corner of his eye. Feeling that something was wrong, he quickly turned his head to look, but saw that there were already several fires on the side of the camp of the Bangbangya people, in the direction of the manor. Almost at the same time, there was a special shout of killing from the Akito.
At this moment, the Bangbangya people who had just slept were once again in a mess, in a hazy sleep, under the blazing fire, I don't know how many Ming people had been killed, as if they had returned to the day and were chased and killed by thousands of Ming people, they were so frightened that they quickly fled.
At this time, the eastern sky finally revealed the white of the fish's belly. This means that another day has passed!
