Chapter 288: Rich Freedom!
Liang Pengfei's words made Ni Ming confused, but at this time, someone next to him spoke to attract the attention of this staff officer.
"Why are we storming the castle?" Next to him, Liang Shuisheng, the commander of the special first battalion, said with a wicked smile, with the same expression as him, there were also several other battalion commanders of the Liang family army who had been lurking in the southeast in the early stage, and now, they also led their respective troops to the city of Kendawangan, and the army was already outside the firepower range of Kendawangyan Castle, forming a tight encirclement.
"What, what is the best plan for you?" Ni Ming turned his head curiously and asked these people. However, seeing these pretending to be mysterious faces, Ni Ming had to set his eyes on Liang Pengfei.
"It's nothing, in fact, at the beginning, in order to make those Dutch people feel safe to use this as their base camp, I strictly ordered the soldiers who helped the civilians evacuate to keep everything in the castle, and did not even let them remove the guns placed on the castle, and even the city gate was left intact for them, in the hope that they could live in it as well.
Because, after helping the people of Kendawangan evacuate, our special battalion and the brothers of these battalions have already buried 20,000 catties of explosives in this city. The scenery of today's dusk must be very beautiful......" Liang Pengfei raised his head and looked at the blue sky with a look of intoxication.
"Two, 20,000 catties of explosives......" Ni Ming almost fainted directly, he naturally knew what the explosives Liang Pengfei was talking about, it was the kind of ghost thing that was far more powerful than black powder, but what he didn't expect was that Liang Pengfei was so ruthless. 20,000 catties, no wonder before Liang Pengfei went south, when Bai Shusheng went to Crab King Island to transfer troops, the ghost reverently pulled Bai Shusheng aside and muttered for a while, thinking that he was going there to transfer the explosives.
"No wonder the adults said that the thousands of soldiers here are not enough to fear, it turns out that the adults have already made up their minds." Ni Ming could only shake his head and sigh. He had to admire Liang Pengfei for being ruthless and black-hearted enough, 20,000 catties, which was enough for two and a half months of the output of the explosives factory on King Crab Island, and he actually buried his surname here at one time.
"Alas, I can't help it, although doing this will hurt the heavens and peace, but in order for my army to be able to successfully exterminate this group of Dutch people with the fastest speed and the smallest casualties, even if I put an extra 20,000 catties, Lao Tzu is willing." Liang Pengfei sniffed, looking generous even though there were tens of millions of people. Seeing that all the generals in the future were as blazing as hot coal, in order to reduce the casualties of their subordinates, they would rather bury tens of thousands of catties of explosives, Liang Pengfei thought about his subordinates like this, how many generals in the world can think about their subordinates? At least the court didn't, could they be willing to die?
Ni Ming can only be silent in his heart, indeed, Liang Pengfei's kind of honesty that is often inadvertently revealed, as well as his affinity, and the kind of approach that always thinks about his subordinates and the surrounding companions, have formed a unique personality charm, and it is precisely for this reason that people are willing to serve.
--------------------
"Alright, now I can let that dear commissioner come over, I think, at this time, it is time for him to play." Liang Pengfei nodded at Bai Shusheng. Bai Shusheng immediately turned around and ran to the rear, and not far away, the commissioner of the Dutch East India Company's governor, who was supposed to stay on the Shixianggu battleship, was standing in a daze between the two soldiers of the 1st Special Battalion.
With a withered face, blank eyes, and blackened eyes, Overmars's hands were constantly folding the hat in his hand, and to his left and right were two soldiers of the special first battalion of the Liang family's army, whose faces were full of flesh, armed to the teeth, and all over his body with a strong smell of blood, which made Overmars's nerves extremely nervous. I was afraid that the two soldiers, who seemed to have been watching him unpleasantly, would suddenly tilt the bright bayonet in the direction of their hearts.
"O God, save your most devout believers! ......" Overmars looked sad about the death of his father and his mother. After spending three days on the ship in terror, he was taken ashore and brought to the Chinese general who was pointing at the city of Kendawangan.
Then, for two whole days and three nights in a row, there was no time to rest, so that Overmars broke down and almost went crazy, and last night, those shameless, despicable and cruel Chinese officers finally finished interrogating themselves, at that time Overmars was already delirious, in order to be able to sleep, he wanted to put out the underwear of whatever color the wife of the Governor of the Netherlands was wearing, of course, he must be interested in the old woman who was in her fifties and fat as a pig. Only if there is a situation of annihilation.
He had just slept for less than five hours, but he was forcibly dragged up and driven for five hours, and when he saw the compatriots of the motherland wearing Dutch military uniforms on the towering and tall city wall of Kendawangan, he did not have the slightest sense of joy and excitement, because, after so many days, Ovimas, who had already understood the true strength of this General Liang, knew very well. This compatriot, who had lost naval aid and was surrounded by these tough Chinese soldiers on land, had no chance of winning at all.
"I just don't know how long they'll last, I hope they'll be able to hold out until His Excellency the Governor organizes another reinforcement to come." Overmars thought with a bitter expression.
"Come here, my young master has something to tell you." Bai Shusheng walked up to Overmars, and a grim smile made Overmars shudder, and immediately sobered up, the obscene-looking Chinese in front of him was one of the officers who interrogated him, and when he saw him, Overmars felt that the rotten demons rolling in the magma in hell should look amiable and cute.
"Dear General Liang, I don't know if there is anything I need to serve." After following Bai Shusheng to Liang Pengfei, Overmars held his hat in both hands and bowed to Liang Pengfei respectfully.
"Yes, but I really need you to do something for me, and now, let you go to Kendawangan, and go inside and tell the Colonel Michels that I want him and his men to lay down their arms and surrender."
Hearing that Liang Pengfei wanted to let him go to Kendawangan, Overmars's eyes couldn't help but light up, but he quickly restrained the expression on his face and maintained a look of modesty and humility. "Your Excellency, I am deeply touched by your kindness. Rest assured, I will do my best to persuade Colonel Michels to surrender to you, to the best of my ability. ”
Liang Pengfei heard Overmars's praise, and couldn't help grinning: "Mr. Overmars, don't be happy yet, I'll give you two hours to convince him, remember, it's only two hours." ”
"Your Excellency, this is impossible, Michels is a very stubborn man, I don't think he will be persuaded by me and surrender in just two hours." Overmars blinked his sleep-deprived eyes and struggled to discern.
--------------------
Liang Pengfei shook his head disapprehantly: "Dear Mr. Overmars, this is not important, the important thing is that I don't have much time to entangle with him here, because, after two hours, it will become dusk here, and the twilight of Kendawangan Port happens to be its most beautiful moment, at that time, I can watch a beautiful fireworks, which is what I want." ”
"Fireworks? Dear General, I don't quite understand what you mean, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with Colonel Michels' surrender or not, does it? Overmars wondered if it was because of lack of sleep that his mind couldn't keep up with Liang Pengfei's out-of-the-box rhythm.
"You don't need to know, go ahead, it's been two minutes now, oh yes, Mr. Overmars, in return for your honesty these days, I give you a word of advice, if, after two hours, you have not convinced the colonel, and you are not willing to go out of the city to be my prisoner of war, then, you better be careful, don't stand in the house, or in the corner, because it will be very unsafe, hehehe......" Liang Pengfei's sinister laughter sent chills down the shoulders of Commissioner Overmars, who was standing in the blazing sun.
"Your Excellency, please rest assured, I will definitely come out, and besides, I will definitely listen to your advice." Ovimas was afraid that Liang Pengfei would change his mind again, so he hurriedly said to Liang Pengfei.
"Alright, go ahead, there's an hour and fifty-five minutes left." Liang Pengfei waved his hand disapprovingly, as if to chase away a pesky fly.
"He's definitely not coming back." Monk Chen said with great confidence, and his words aroused everyone's contempt and eyes.
"Of course I know that, and I just hope that a few more Dutch people who have survived this great fireworks show will be able to tell the story to their people and to their Western friends in a more immersive way, of course, without being scared crazy." Liang Pengfei said with a smile, but unfortunately, the white teeth exposed at the corners of his mouth made his originally handsome and energetic face look extremely hideous and vicious.
"May their God bless them." Thinking of 20,000 catties of explosives, Ni Ming was not very optimistic about the chances of these Dutch surviving.
"Don't worry, Counselor Ni, the explosives we planted can't kill everyone in the castle. Unless the number of 20,000 catties is multiplied tenfold, after all, this is a castle that can accommodate nearly 10,000 people, not a small stone house. Liang Shuisheng scratched his scalp and smiled heartily.
"God, you must have heard my prayer, and I swear that as soon as I return to Jakarta, I will go to the priest to confess my past sins." Seeing that the two soldiers escorting him had stopped, Overmars walked dozens of steps tremblingly, still not seeing the two soldiers pounce on him, at this moment, he really believed that he had regained his rich freedom!
