Chapter 352: Ming Ying Fights Again (5) With one enemy and four

The officer who led the team reported the situation here to the captain as soon as possible. At the same time www.biquge.info a part of the soldiers marched to the interior of the island. The Knife Neck squad belongs to the ranks of those who explore the interior of the island.

Speaking of which, it's also a very risky job.

But wealth is in danger! If you want to be promoted quickly, you must receive such a task. Therefore, as soon as the knife neck said what he meant, Chen Jiasheng and others all said that they had no opinion.

So a group of sixteen people, the 441st team, marched to the highest point of the island. It's also that the forests on this island are too deep! It's hard to see the island in its entirety without looking for a high point above sea level.

Fortunately, although there were more thorns along the way, there was no danger in the end. This made the tense soldiers breathe a sigh of relief.

After walking for about half an hour, they went up the river. The terrain also slowly rises and slowly approaches the highest point.

Just then, there was a sudden rustling sound ahead. First of all, whether it was a bird or a bird, the first reaction of the soldiers was to quickly find a place to hide.

In this way, in the blink of an eye, everyone 'disappeared' into the dense forest. After a few breaths, the birds and beasts that were silent like cicadas also thought that everyone had gone away, and began to scramble to whisper. But before it could get better, the birds and beasts fled the woodland one after another.

Several voices rang out, and they just listened: "Shit! Kars, is the gunfire really coming from here?" ”。

"Yes, sir! I did hear gunshots coming from here. ”。 A soldier of a lower rank, only resigned.

When the officer heard this, he said angrily, "It can't be that greedy ghost of Tom, hunting in the woods, right?" ”。 The Tom he was talking about was the British soldier who was killed by Chen Jiasheng and them.

Also unlucky, catching a snake and a hedgehog, he went to chase the fat and strong hare. As a result, the rabbit did not catch, and the prey was gone. And, he also took his own life.

When the soldier heard this, he immediately vetoed: "No! The gunfire was more intense, and it seemed that at the same time, a lot of people were firing. ”。

The neck of the knife hiding in the shadows, although I can't understand a word. But in those days when he was a pirate, he had heard a similar language. So immediately, I knew it was English. And among the accompanying soldiers, five or six were white soldiers who had emigrated to the Ming Dynasty from Europe. As soon as they understood what each other was saying, they nodded to everyone again and again.

Now, everyone can be more sure that it is the British.

So I held my breath more carefully, for fear of startling the snake.

At this time, Chen Jiasheng, who was not far from the neck of the knife, was hiding in the treetops of a big tree. Because of the cover of the branches and leaves, it is difficult for others to see where he is hiding. But just because others can't see him doesn't mean he can't see others. Through the gaps between the branches and leaves, he saw very clearly. Seven or eight British sailors in white uniforms, armed with muskets, walked through thorns and walked toward their hiding place.

Due to the extreme humidity in the forest, the clothes and trousers of those navy soldiers were also wet from the water vapor on the branches and leaves. This made the British soldiers who were struggling to walk more or less complain.

No matter how they ended up here! As long as they come, then Da Ming must not let go. Therefore, Chen Jiasheng's eyes when he looked at the British soldiers became colder and colder. The black hole was also slowly aimed at the head of the British soldier. The finger holding the trigger gradually increased the force.

But at this moment, there was a sudden banging in his ears, and a loud bang suddenly erupted. When I looked up, I saw three flares burning in succession, exploding in the air. The scattered fireworks disappeared in a flash. But the information revealed makes people anxious.

Because this is a signal flare launched in the Ming army in case of emergency. Judging from the distance, it was clearly sent from Gwangjong-2. Then it also shows that Guangzong No. 2 is in danger.

The British soldiers were unaware of this. But that doesn't stop them from being nervous! He quickened his pace and quickly rushed to the sea. The Ming soldiers who were ambushed around also followed the group to attack it.

I listened to the thumping gunshot, and exploded several times. But the rumbling cannon fire completely drowned out the gunfire.

In such a round of strafing, eight British soldiers, only two people survived. There were also wounded, but they were shot by the Ming army.

After all, it is an enemy, and it is impossible to live and live, and it is impossible to die and die. It's a burden to carry again! So in order to avoid trouble, it is still a shot. The wounded British soldiers were helplessly turned into dead corpses.

Without hesitation of cross-examination, they took the captives and rushed to the beach. The closer you get to the sea, the more deafening the sound of the cannon becomes. A large number of birds also fluttered their wings and flew high into the distance.

Wait to break out of the dense forest and step on the soft sand. The Gwangjong-2, anchored in the harbor, has reached the deep sea 1,000 meters away. Four warships flying the Portuguese flag surrounded the Gwangjong 2, spraying and firing shells. From the outside, this is a wooden sailing ship. It is especially similar to ordinary Daming merchant ships. But the rows of cannon muzzles that were revealed fully showed that this was not an ordinary merchant ship.

In fact, this is indeed not an ordinary merchant ship, nor a Portuguese merchant ship, but a deliberately disguised troop carrier by the British!

It turned out that Magorny guessed that the Ming would set up an ambush in the Andaman Islands, so he got a detailed nautical map of the South Seas from the Dutch in advance.

You must know that the Netherlands is still at war with the Ming Dynasty. Britain wants to stumble on the Ming envoys, how can the Netherlands not help.

Even though Britain also stabbed the Netherlands in the back! But in the end, they are all Western countries, and Daming is the biggest beneficiary of Nanyang. The so-called injustice has a head, and the debtor has a master! To retaliate, the Netherlands naturally started with the Ming Dynasty.

It can be regarded as turning that eternal truth into reality!

After all, there are no eternal enemies between countries, only eternal interests. Looking at problems from the perspective of development means that the relationship between countries is constantly changing with the changes of time! No matter how bitter and bitter the hatred was before, it is possible to laugh and grudge after the situation changes. The Netherlands and Britain have gradually become close allies as the situation in the South Seas has changed.

When he got the first-hand information of Nanyang, Magorny immediately passed it to the British commander. Let him pick another path and enter the South Seas. It is also a chance to avoid giving Daming a chance to wait for the rabbit!

In the end, it was a maritime power in this era, and the British army had a particularly rich experience in sailing at sea. I thought of a good idea! Disguised as a Portuguese merchant ship, British reinforcements from India were sent to the South Seas in batches.

Because the South China Sea is so big and there are so many islands, even if the Ming Dynasty has the ability to reach the sky, it is impossible to monitor every island all the time. As a result, the island of Simelu came into the sight of the British army.

This is in conjunction with the previously leaked military layout map of the South Seas, and the selected islands. Although there are a small number of Ming defenders on the island, they have an innate advantage when they come prepared. So that a boatload of British soldiers, unknowingly, sneaked into the island.

In fact, the military layout plan has been completely changed by the Ming Dynasty. However, those are aimed at islands with troops. An island like Simelu Island, which has no common people, has naturally not changed much. This is also the reason why the British army was able to touch the island without attracting the attention of the Ming military. (To be continued.) )
