Chapter 077: Preparing to land on the island

The crowd looked at the small island that was blocked by the sea, and the city of San Salvador on the small island, and did not know how their commander had landed on the island. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

In fact, because the island is very close to the port, it is not difficult for the soldiers to land on the island, but it is unrealistic for his personnel carriers and tanks to land on the island.

Zhuo Shijie himself didn't know how to get on the island, if he let these soldiers swim with his bare hands in broad daylight, it would be purely looking for death. Although the island is not far from the port, the cannons and gunners in the castle are not vegetarians, and they teach these swimmers how to behave in minutes.

Attack the city of San Salvador only in the evening.

"Sun Tiezhu, Heizi, the two of you lead the team to clean up the battlefield, bury the corpses, and clean up the bloodstains."

"Hong Zhi, you go and write a few notices to the people, and inform the residents and shipowners of the port that we are here this time, not to take a stitch from them, not to disturb the people, not to ask for food, and not to ask for money, so that they can rest assured, and do what they should do."

"Everyone, be careful, don't get too close to the island, there may be a battery on the hill of the island facing the direction of the port."

"Anne, come with me."

Zhuo Shijie called Anne alone into the troop carrier and asked her what her plans were.

"Commander, when the evening comes, I can build a pontoon bridge large enough for tanks to pass through, and then take advantage of the darkness to land on the island."

Zhuo Shijie's face was worried: "It is reported that there is still a Spanish army of more than 300 people in the city of San Salvador, we are fighting in the port today, they must have taken precautions, even if it is to land on the island at night, it is not an easy task, right?" ”

Anne shook her head and said, "Commander, it's definitely not okay to be afraid of casualties among your subordinates, after training for so long, it's time to test their combat effectiveness." ”

The victory that Dare Qing just fought was just an appetizer before the meal.

Anne continued: "What Instructor Jack has arranged for these soldiers is a complete set of special forces training programs, if they can't even complete this kind of skirmish, how can they fight big battles and tough battles in the future!" ”

Zhuo Shijie nodded and said: "It makes sense, without experiencing the baptism of blood and fire, and without fighting a few challenging battles, they will not be able to grow up." Well, that's it! ”

It wasn't until late afternoon that the quiet port gradually gained some popularity, and some people saw the posted Anmin notice, although they still had doubts in their hearts, but they were no longer so afraid.

How could they not be afraid?

In the past, those Spanish soldiers wearing mighty military uniforms and carrying spears on their shoulders were extremely feared in the minds of these ordinary people.

But now, these invincible Spanish soldiers were completely annihilated like stumps in front of this team that came out of nowhere, which shows how strong the combat effectiveness of this army is!

This also opened their eyes, it turned out that there is a more powerful army in this world than the red-haired devil, and this army is still Chinese!

"It looks like this team is not bad, no food, no money, and it doesn't seem to be strong, now in this world, such a team is really rare."

"I think it's better to be careful, some of them have a good start to say, and when the time comes, they will show their true colors."

"Yes, yes, there are too many bandits who say one thing and do another, soldiers are bandits, bandits are soldiers, I'm really afraid of them!"

Although Zhuo Shijie did not commit any offense against them, the people of Jilong Harbor were still wary of them and stayed away from them one by one.

Zhuo Shijie didn't pay attention to this, and waited until he took the city of San Salvador to appease these people.

"It's okay in the afternoon, let's go to the car, take a rest first, there may be action in the evening, and I've been refreshed one by one!"

After catching up with his soldiers in the car, Zhuo Shijie took Andre and Anne and strolled up a hill on the edge of the harbor to take a closer look at the chicken coop harbor.

The area of Jilong Port is not large now, and the wharves are not as many as those of later ports, but it is also quite large, and the cargo throughput is still good.

In this era, the profits of maritime merchants were extremely high, and as soon as they bought and sold, they had a lot of gold and silver in their hands, and a 100-ton cargo ship was almost comparable to the profits of 10,000-ton cargo ships in later generations.

It is a pity that since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, every emperor has regarded merchants as enemies like mustard or a piece of soaring, and the status of merchants is almost at the same level as beggars. Of course, this is just the emperor's wishful thinking, the merchant is rich, although he has no social status, but he is more prosperous than other professions, and his small life is also very prosperous, which is not the emperor's will can change.

The Ming Dynasty did not allow the people of the Ming Dynasty in the coastal areas to trade with the foreign people, but many merchants still took great risks to trade with overseas merchants.

The warships of the Ming Navy, as well as the soldiers of the government at all levels, often arrested smuggled maritime merchants at sea, and the maritime merchants were naturally unwilling to be bound, so they brought their own knives, guns and firearms, and confronted the officials openly and secretly, which was the most important reason for the rampant piracy in the Ming Dynasty.

Taiwan Island became the best transit point for merchants and thieves in East Asia, from which they could transport Ming silk porcelain to the Wa Kingdom, to Manila, to Malacca and other places.

"Without a certain strength, it is not easy to dominate Taiwan Island." Zhuo Shijie sighed secretly.

Zheng Zhilong, the dragon who sat on the ground, took the risk of becoming an enemy of the incomparably powerful East India Company and forcibly drove the Dutch out of Taiwan, which shows how important Taiwan's status is.

Zhuo Shijie has not yet thought about how to make a positioning for the base on Taiwan Island, so he can only wait for it to be completely stable before making plans.

Zhuo Shijie didn't want to be an emperor, he hated what the Huaxia Emperor did, so he definitely wouldn't be a soil emperor on Taiwan Island.

"Annie, what do you think about the future of Taiwan?"

Although Anne is young, her chest is far wider than Zhuo Shijie, and she doesn't have any feelings for the small place of Taiwan Island, but since Zhuo Shijie asked, she said what she wanted.

"Taiwan Island is short of resources, the land is small and sparsely populated, and the value is not too great, so the commander doesn't have to care too much, just let them be autonomous."

Zhuo Shijie deeply believes that autonomy is a good choice, they can have a government, have a security police, but not an army, as for regional security, he Zhuo Shijie's army can do it for you.

Blowing the cool sea breeze, Zhuo Shijie thought for a long time, and finally had a rough outline in his heart.

It was getting late, Zhuo Shijie returned to the port, and after having dinner with everyone, he began to assign tasks to various officers.

"Sixth, at midnight tonight, you take a few people and sneak into the island quietly to kill their sentinels. Upon success, a signal was immediately sent to the troops behind. ”

"Sun Tiezhu, Heizi, you two, lead your team, and after the sixth child sends a signal, land on the island immediately."

"He Wanting, you lead the sniper team and follow closely behind."

"Andrey, when all the squads have landed, you drive the tank to the island."

"Hong Zhi, you will join me in Jicoo Harbor."

After the orders were issued, several subordinates came to the spirit, and they could do a big job again tonight.
