"Your Excellency?" Zhou Qi, who couldn't figure it out, shouted softly with some caution. Top Novel,

Gao Yang came back to his senses, waved his hand, and said with a smile, "It's nothing." You go and deliver my commands. Hold all the red-haired ghosts who surrendered alive. When the officers were reclaimed, they were all sent to reclaim the fields. As for the time......"

Gao Yang raised his hand and gently pinched his chin, and after a slight sigh, he said with a smile, "It's just twenty years." After twenty years, let them go. As for wages......"

Gao Yang paused, suddenly laughed out loud, and kept shaking his head with a wry smile.

Where is the wage of the coolies of this era? These are prisoners of war. It's already a great luck not to kill you, but you still want to be paid?

Gao Yang also thought too much before. Unconsciously came up with the idea that in modern time and space, prisoners should also be paid for their work. Human rights also depend on when. Now it is clear that it is not appropriate to talk about such topics.

After coming back to my senses, I remembered that there are no human rights at all in this era! These Western colonizers are not less engaged in human trafficking! Even on the Ming side, many people were sold as piglets and went to the wilderness to be humiliated!

Men are slaves, women are season girls! This is what happens when it is sold as goods!

Since these colonists don't treat people as human beings, Gao Yang can also not treat them as human beings!

Governor Ichi and the mercenaries who had surrendered, as well as the natives of the South Seas, and all the colonists who had subsequently been captured at the castle of Geranza and the entire island of Oyuan were left to work as free drudgery on the island to clear the barren fields.

At this time, most of the places on Dayuan Island have not been reclaimed, and the ecological environment is extremely primitive. It is also full of crises.

The dense forests and mountains are also home to a large number of indigenous Polynesians. Add to that the ever-changing climate, as well as the ubiquitous contagious diseases and brutal climate, to name a few. It is almost impossible for these prisoners of war, who do the hardest hard work day and night, to survive for twenty years!

In fact, the same is true.

These guys who came uninvited and enslaved the people on Dayuan Island for more than 20 years. In the days that followed, they were all consumed in the hard work of day after day.

Most of them were infected and died. Or they are exhausted by the heavy, endless work.

A small number of people were attacked and killed by the local natives. Or maybe they can't stand this hopeless life and want to be killed when they want to riot. In the end, no one made it back to the homeland of tulips thousands of miles away!

......

A red sun burst out of the clouds. The vast land is dyed with a layer of golden brilliance. The whole Dayuan Island is a scene of autumn air.

After nearly a week of hard work, the industrious sappers finally completed the temporary expansion of the harbor. The greatly increased capacity of the seaport was not only intended to serve the military, but also to be used by the ensuing waves of migration.

More than 20,000 Sergeants of the New Army were sent to Oyuan Island. At the same time, they also had a huge amount of logistics and supplies ashore. The entire vicinity of the harbor was dotted with military camps, stretching for more than ten miles.

The large convoy of transports turned their bows and left the area under the escort of a detachment of detachments. Head to the mainland to meet the immigrants who have already booked.

No matter what kind of place you occupy, if you want to own a piece of land forever, you must first have people. It is impossible to claim a new piece of land forever by relying on the army alone. That kind of output is completely disproportionate to the input. Large numbers of immigrants became an indispensable factor in holding on to the newly occupied territories.

And the Ming Empire, which had just ended large-scale domestic turmoil. At this time, there is a terrifying number of displaced people who have lost all their possessions waiting to be properly settled. There was no better place to be a pioneer in the new colonies than these unemployed.

Before the arrival of the emigrant army, Gao Yang also needed to clear the last large stronghold of the Dutch on Dayuan Island, the city of Geranza. With the exception of this castle, the small strongholds in other parts of the island are completely unthreatening.

The city of Geranza was the center of Dutch rule in the Great Force. The castle is made of bricks mixed with sugar water and ash. Extremely robust. Satellite forts are built on all sides, and the defense facilities are complete. Dozens of powerful artillery pieces were also placed on the city walls. The entire castle is several times larger than the Fort of Provencha.

This castle is different from Provencha. It is not a mere military fortress. It was the center of Dutch rule. In addition to mercenaries and indigenous armies, many Dutch colonists lived here. It's more like a city, and the Dutch even set up a colonial council here.

The castle had an abundant source of water and a large reserve of food, as well as a large number of artillery and army guards. Therefore, even if the castle of Provencha and the governor of the Grand Governor had surrendered by this time. However, the Dutch in the city of Geranza still chose to resist.

These people have all their hopes in distant Batavia. Expect reinforcements to be sent to save them before the Hyacinth season ends.

Ideals are always beautiful, but the reality is often cruel.

At this time, in the harbor outside the city of Geranza, only two small transports, the Graflan and the Egret, and some small wrecked ships that did not even have their names left. The only communication ship, the Burmaria, has been sent to Batavia for help. It is simply impossible for sea power to stop the Ming Navy.

Faced with this situation, it is difficult for the magistrate cat in the city of Geranza to bite (that's how it is translated. I was dizzy when I looked at it. He ordered all the ships in the harbor, large and small, to be scuttled at the entrance to the sea to prevent the Ming fleet from firing at close range.

At the same time, he also sent troops to loot and burn grain in the villages and local communities in various places, intending to cut off the food supply of the Ming army. After all, so many armies came across the sea. The daily consumption is astronomical. With the transport capacity and production capacity of this era, it was almost impossible to complete the replenishment of such a large number of troops across the sea.

The trick of cutting off the grain channel was very common in this era. The cat didn't do anything wrong, he just didn't understand what kind of opponent he was facing.

Not long after the mercenaries who had gone out to burn food left the castle, they were discovered by an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft monitoring the entire castle. Soon, a large number of elite sergeants marched in quickly under the guidance of the locals. Prepare to hunt down these daring red-haired ghosts.

The natives of the colonies were only goods that could be sold for money. This is the consistent thinking of the Western colonizers. Before you didn't make enough bloody silver coins and gold coins. These robbers would not put on tuxedos, carry civilized sticks and pretend to be gentlemen, and make any emancipation proclamation.

in their eyes. Both for the indigenous people of Polynesia. The black natives in the South Seas and the Han people on the mainland are all treated the same. It's just a bunch of piglets.

These Dutch, relying on the power of their firearms, have been rampant and violent on Dayuan Island for so many years, and they have done all kinds of evil. It's already made everyone angry. This sudden and powerful blow of the Ming army to the Dutch was quickly met with an enthusiastic response from the locals.

There are at least 20,000 locals, most of whom are Han Chinese who emigrated from the mainland in the early years, as well as those of the Gaoshan people who have immigrated from the Tushe of the North and South Roads. All of them enthusiastically ran over to make strong men for the Ming army. After learning that they could get paid, these people became more enthusiastic.

After learning that the Dutch mercenaries in the city of Geranza went out of the city to burn food. These well-known locals became the leading party. Lead the elite Ming army to ambush the Dutch mercenaries.

Captain Bader was in charge of the operation. The Germanic mercenary from Hamburg, the soon-to-be-disbanded Hanseatic League, was tall and burly, with a foul-smelling thick body hair, a hooked nose, and deep blue eyes. And, of course, the indispensable blonde hair.

The Germanic armies of this era were not the Germanic armies that swept across Europe. Those who were able to join the East India Company were some hapless bankrupts and beggars, thieves and hooligans. The Captain Bader was also just a hapless bastard who had gone bankrupt. The main reason why he was able to become a captain was because of his good luck, he participated in many battles and never died. In addition, before going bankrupt, he was still a small rich peasant, not to mention reading and writing, and he could still eat a full stomach. The appearance alone is very good.

Captain Bader's more than 200 mercenaries are complex, and there are all kinds of people. They are all unlucky people like him. It's okay for these guys with little military training to bully the natives. But met with a well-equipped one. After a well-trained regular army, it is inevitable that they will be beaten back to their original form on the spot.

"It's boring." In a sweltering wood, Gao Yang, dressed in heavy camouflage uniform, put down the binoculars in his hand. Shaking his head slightly, he said with a regretful face.

"What's wrong?" Origin asked curiously.

Gao Yang turned around and found a slightly cleaner place. I did it in one ass.

I casually took out a chocolate from my pocket, opened the package and ate it in one bite. With a look of disappointment on his face, he said, "I also deliberately ran over to direct this ambush." Where do these mercenaries have the slightest hint of a regular army? In addition to the fact that the weapons in their hands have changed from cold weapons to muskets, even those bandits in the Ming Empire are stronger than them. ”

"Isn't that a normal thing?" Origin said with a smile: "The level of education in Europa at this time is extremely low. With the exception of the Italian states, which are slightly better, the rest of the region is overwhelmingly illiterate and poor peasants. Even the nobles! After all, they had just left the Middle Ages. One by one, they were driven to death by poverty and hunger. In addition to the courage to venture out to sea in search of the riches of the unknown world. They have nothing. ”

The Europa people of this era are just a group of poor and crazy broken people. (A good event for pie in the sky, cool mobile phones are waiting for you!)
