"What to do? The red-haired devil is so unscrupulous. No matter how much our people hide, they will definitely find them! ”

"That's right, hiding like this, we don't dare to fight back, something will happen sooner or later!"

"I look at the way they look, if they don't find anyone again, they will probably kill someone!"

"Yes, they didn't treat us as human beings at all, if it weren't for Cheng Dang's protection of us, they would have beaten us to death a long time ago!"

“……”

Seeing that they were worried and said worrying words, Su Minggang was also very anxious. He thought for a while, and said to them first: "Okay, don't be anxious, I'll contact the court to take a look." As the emperor said, he has already sent someone to save us! ”

After that, he went into the chat group.

The people present watched Su Minggang start to be in a daze, and with expectations, no one spoke and waited.

After waiting for a while, Su Minggang still didn't react in a daze, and this time, someone couldn't help it.

"We are far away in Batavia, and the emperor will really send someone to save us?"

"Yes, this is the stronghold of the Dutch, how many people does the court have to send?"

"How do I feel that this matter is a bit hanging, we people can't get along in our hometown, so we came out to find something to eat. There are poor people, and there are no relatives who are officials, will the emperor really care about us? ”

“……”

Just as they were worrying and doubting everything, suddenly, there was a rapid "clang" sound outside.

When the people in the courtyard heard this, they stood up in shock. This is the night watchman who was arranged to be vigilant outside, and when he encountered a situation, he sounded the police gong.

No one had the mind, and they didn't have time to wait for Su Minggang to speak, so they rushed out of the courtyard one after another. At this time, I heard the sound of the police gong, and someone shouted anxiously: "The red-haired devil is coming, hide quickly!" ”

"The men come out first to stop for a while, and the women are hiding!"

“……”

The place where the Ming people live was in chaos, and no one expected that those red-haired devils would come out after dark.

The men rushed out of the house one after another, while explaining their families, and the scene was a bit chaotic.

"child, hide with your daughter!"

"Daughter-in-law, don't clean up, go and hide, people are the most important!"

“……”

At the entrance of the village, the men who arrived in advance blocked the road with their bodies and blocked a group of red-haired devils outside the village.

These red-haired devils were originally ruthless, and they thought that if they came at night, they would definitely be able to find a woman. Unexpectedly, before they got close to the place where the Ming people lived, they heard the sound of gongs, and these oriental monkeys began to block the road and prevent them from entering.

They knew that if they delayed a little longer, the women would definitely be hiding again. So, they unceremoniously took action against the man blocking the road. At first, it was punching and kicking, and even a few people who were in a hurry actually pulled out knives and began to stab people.

However, even so, the men at the intersection still gathered more and more, and no one retreated. And because of the blood, many men were angry. Instead of being stabbed to death like this, it's better to fight with them!

But more people still don't dare to do it. They all have small families, and it doesn't matter if they fight by themselves, but what about the family? If these red-haired devils are moved, they will affect their families tomorrow, and when the time comes, all the Ming people may be killed by them. These red-haired devils, killing people here in the South Seas, have no scruples at all!

However, these red-haired devils either knew that they couldn't find a woman when they rushed in, or they felt the anger gathered by many Ming people, so they finally retreated and went back scolding.

After a period of tossing, the place where the Akito lived, in the midst of the sound of anger and the whispered cries of children and women, finally slowly returned to quiet.

The first few people, one less, regathered in Su Minggang's courtyard. Everyone was either angry or frustrated, and their expressions varied.

Among them, Su Minglun said to Su Minggang, who was worried: "Uncle, not to mention those who were injured by them, there are sixteen people who were stabbed by them, and three of them are probably not good!" ”

Hearing this, someone finally couldn't help it, and without waiting for Su Minggang to speak, he said hatefully: "These red-haired devils don't treat us as human beings at all, we will die in their hands sooner or later, if you want me to say, fight with them!" ”

"Yes, let them bully, they will only get worse, a few will die today, some will die tomorrow, and if we go down, we will all die, it is better to fight with them, kill one and count one!"

"But they have guns and cannons, knives and guns, what do we have? Even if you fight, how to fight? "There were people who came up with different opinions, a bit of a low mood, obviously pessimistic!

"That's right, we can fight with about a thousand people, but what about them, at least more than 3,000 people, are still soldiers, how to fight?" There are also those who agree. There are about 4,000 Ming people, about 1,000 young adults, and the others are either masters and craftsmen, or women and children, or people who are tired and have various disabilities and diseases, and they can't fight to the death.

"Don't fight? Sooner or later it's death! It's better to kill a few of them! ”

"Yes, fight!"

"It doesn't matter if you don't have a wife and children, but have you considered having a wife and children?"

“……”

In the courtyard, there was a lot of arguing.

Su Minggang looked at these, slapped the armrest of the chair with his hand, and said loudly: "Listen to me, don't make any noise, listen to me......"

After saying a few words, the people in the courtyard finally stopped talking, but their emotions were still there, and they were all a little excited.

Su Minggang looked at them, and suddenly lowered his voice a little and said, "Don't worry, everyone, tell you a good news, the emperor sent someone to save us has arrived!" ”

As soon as he said this, the courtyard was very quiet. Everyone stared at Su Minggang with incredulous or surprised expressions. They didn't seem to believe that the emperor really had to send someone to save them?

Su Ming, who was still close to him, came back to his senses first and asked in surprise: "Uncle, has it really arrived?" ”

Su Minggang smiled and nodded, for some reason, tears were already hanging from the corners of his eyes, "For the sake of secrecy, I will tell the old man when I arrive." Your Majesty, it's really Chrysostom! ”

The bullying from the red-haired devil, he saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, but he couldn't do anything but watch it happen. Now, the emperor thousands of miles away has fulfilled his promise and really has to send someone to save them, thinking that everyone can finally get rid of the current dark days, even if he has experienced a lot, he still can't help but shed tears of excitement.

Or maybe it's because he has experienced a lot that he knows that such a rescue is really not easy! If it weren't for meeting a good emperor, such a thing would never have happened.

Hearing Su Minggang's confirmation, the people in the courtyard, with the help of the bright moonlight, looked at each other, and they all saw each other's excitement. However, although Cheng Quan was also excited, he could still maintain some composure, and preemptively asked, "How many people did the emperor send over?" If there is no such person, it will not work. We're under the noses of the red-haired devils, and we can't escape! ”

As soon as they heard this, everyone else nodded in agreement, and then with a little worry and expectation, stared at Su Minggang, waiting for his answer.

At such a distance, when it was a decisive battle with the enemy on this side of the South Seas, they were all a little worried about how many people they could send over.

After all, this is the base camp of the red-haired devils, although the main force of the red-haired devils has gone out, but there are still about 3,000 troops, which is not a small number!

Su Minggang listened, wiped away his tears, and replied with a smile: "Three warships, a total of about 2,000 marines have been transported, and they have already landed, and it is estimated that they will arrive near Batavia at noon tomorrow." Wait for the evening, we'll pick it up! ”

"So much?" Became all the first to hear it, and said in surprise. As a pirate, he naturally knew that three warships would carry more than 2,000 people, which must be a very large warship. If it is in Liu Xiang's pirate group, it is the main warship. Oh, not only that, even among those warships of the red-haired devils, they are all considered big.

On the other side, Su Mingyan gossiped excitedly: "Uncle, what is the Marine Corps?" I've been out for so long, how come I've never heard of it before? “

Hearing this, the other people who had gone to the burden in their hearts were also very curious, and they followed suit, and even became Quan, they were also very curious, what marines, it sounds too strange!

Su Minggang listened, clasped his fists with both hands, rushed in the direction of Daming, and gratefully gestured to salute, and then replied to them: "After the emperor knew the situation on our side, he specially ordered Zheng Dashuai to set up an army dedicated to rescuing us, and he has been training how to save us since last year." The emperor called it the Marine Corps, and it seems that there is another name, what kind of special forces are called. Literally, it seems to belong to the naval division, but it is used for the army that fights on land! ”

Hearing this, the people in the courtyard knew that the emperor was so concerned about them, and they were all speechless with excitement. I have never heard of such an emperor who loves the people! No, it's not that I've never heard of it, but since there has been an emperor, there hasn't been such an emperor!

After a while, Cheng Quan Xian came back to his senses, and he asked a little puzzled: "Isn't it a sailor, why is the emperor called the navy again?" ”

"Then the old decay doesn't know, anyway, that's what the emperor called it." Su Minggang didn't know, so he could only say his opinion, "I feel that the old man feels that the navy is going to change, how good the navy is, it is much more powerful than the navy!" ”

Became all listened, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

"Uncle, now is not the time to talk about this!" Su Minglun was not interested in this, and interjected, "This...... This Marine Corps is here tomorrow, let's hurry up and discuss, what should we do? “

Su Minggang listened, and hurriedly nodded: "Yes, yes, this matter is the most important." You wait first, and the old man will contact me and tell me about the situation, so as not to cause any problems! ”

After saying that, he went into a daze mode again.

But this time, the people in the courtyard were not as uneasy as before, they were all very excited, and after waiting for a while, they whispered to each other, and they could feel each other's excitement!

Before, they felt that the hope of returning to their hometown in this life was so ethereal. But at this moment, their hearts have been ironclad, in the near future, they will definitely be able to return to their hometown, return to their hometown after a long absence, and see their family members who are haunted by their dreams!

"Your home doesn't seem to be far from my house, it's about fifty miles, when I return to Daming, how about I go to your house as a guest?"

"Okay, I remember that at the entrance of my hometown, there is an old banyan tree, which is very big and can be seen from afar. When you see that banyan tree, you can see my home, my home! ”

“……”

Listening to their words, Cheng Quan also thought of his old mother in his mind, and felt that his nose was a little sour, and his hair should be white, right? Thinking so, he couldn't help shouting in his heart: "Mother, unfilial piety is going home soon!" ”

After a long while, Su Minggang came back to his senses and said to them with a little excitement: "The old man has already contacted the marines, and it is Zheng Dashuai's own brother who came to save us by holy order......"

Zheng Zhilong's prestige, on this side of the Nanyang, especially among the people who beg for a living at sea, may be even more famous than Sun Chuanting, the governor. Hearing that it was his own brother who led the army, they couldn't help but be excited again.

"The emperor has understood our situation, let us endure for a day first, and the red-haired devil is false and wronged, and after dark tomorrow, it is time for revenge." Su Minggang continued to whisper, "For specific operations, the old man will listen to General Zheng's orders and tell you when I turn back." But there is one point, in order to prevent too many people, don't talk about the matter of the imperial court's rescue of the soldiers, just a few of us know. ”

Everyone in the courtyard nodded, and one by one they replied excitedly: 'Of course! “

So, the people in this courtyard did not disperse until late at night. But instead of resting, they knocked on doors and whispered about things.

As soon as the sky was bright, almost all the Ming people gathered. Last night, three people who were seriously injured did not survive and died.

In an open space in the place of residence, there were three bodies parked, Su Minggang stood in front of them, and behind them were the families and compatriots of the deceased.

On the three incense sticks, Su Minggang said solemnly: "You have a spirit in the sky, bless us, soon, we will all be able to go home!" ”

It was solemn, solemn, and more like an oath.

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and glanced at the red-haired devil who rushed over with a loaded gun in the distance, Su Minggang retracted his gaze and said loudly to the person in front of him: "No matter what, you have to believe in the old man's arrangement, after today, if you can't be satisfied, the old man will die here!" ”

His arrangement was ordered overnight yesterday. Many people can't understand it, but for the sake of secrecy, there is no way, and there is no need to wait long anyway.

"What are you doing here, what are you doing here? Want to rebel? Before the red-haired devil arrived, the loud cheers had already arrived, "Go to work, otherwise you will be fulfilled if you want to die!" ”
