This time it was able to firmly grasp the movements of the Dutch in their hands, not only because the Ming army had an artifact like night vision devices. 【頂【点【小】【Say,

More importantly, Gao Yang has clearly demanded that all armed forces must conduct all operations in strict accordance with the requirements of military discipline. When you set up camp, you can't miss a long post or a dark post! It is absolutely not allowed to put all hope on those immortal artifacts.

Major Doplan and his men had already been spotted by the scouts of the Ming army as they climbed down the walls.

They walked cautiously along the way, all believing that they were not noticed, and their actions were still very secretive. But in fact, their every move was under the monitoring of the Ming army.

Wait until the night sentries hiding in the den, covered in camouflage nets at the entrance of the hole, shoot signal flares into the sky. The face of Major Doplan, who was stimulated, was very wonderful!

Looking at the bright spots of light that flew into the sky with a dazzling orange-red light, Major Doplan, who had a complicated expression, slowly stood up. He knew that from this moment on, the fate of the Dutch at the castle of Geranza and on the entire island of Otar had been sealed.

They were clearly encircled. It is no longer possible to destroy the super artillery that can already be seen clearly in the light of fire, but cannot be reached in any way. It was impossible to organize another night raid of the same kind after that.

The rule of the Dutch in the Great Commander ended.

The impatient Ming army, which had been waiting for a long time, quickly climbed up from the trenches where they were hiding after receiving the order. Under the light of more and more flares rising into the air, under the stunned gaze of all the Dutch. These Ming soldiers raised their muskets in front of the Dutch mercenaries not far away.

The dazed-eyed cat stood on the wall of the castle of Geranza in a daze, and looked at the fierce battlefield as bright as day in the direction of the Ming army outside the city.

The loud roar of the muskets, the mixing of the shouts of different languages, was enough to show how panicked it was at the moment.

With the help of the bright little sun in the mid-air, the cat could vaguely see that Major Doplan and his men were in great trouble. It was as if there were armies of the Orientals on all sides. The constant flickering muzzle flames meant that the mercenaries were constantly dying.

The night breeze blew, with a burst of shouting and screaming. It was the last roar of humanity in despair.

It didn't take long. The place surrounded by flickering muzzle fireworks suddenly lit up. Huge flames rose into the air, and the sound of violent explosions came to the side of the castle of Geranza from a distance of kilometers, causing the cat's eyes to shrink rapidly.

After disrupting the formation of the Dutch mercenaries, the Ming army, which launched a white-knuckle charge, threw a wave of deadly grenades. Not to mention blowing up the Dutch, and then this indomitable momentum rushed into the ranks of the Dutch for the final hand-to-hand combat.

The Ming soldiers were all carefully trained in the art of assassination, and the muskets in their hands hung from the flashing bayonets. The Dutch mercenaries were holding only burning sticks.

At this time, the plugged bayonet, which had just been invented by the French, could not have appeared in the hands of these East India Company mercenaries in any case.

The Dutch, whose morale had already fallen to a low point, could not withstand the assault of a powerful enemy. The battle ended in a very short time.

The brave Major Doplan was hit with multiple lead bullets in the first blow, and he fell to the ground like a rag bag.

And the more than 300 Dutch mercenaries who suffered a sudden blow did not last long. Under the fierce attack of the Ming army, many of them could only fire a single shot.

After the Ming army launched a white-knuckle charge, these Dutch completely collapsed. In this mode of warfare, where courage is the only criterion. The brave and senseless Ming army scared the Dutch out of fear. In particular, they were also subjected to a wave of grenade shelling.

In the end, most of the more than 300 Dutch who went out of the city to launch a night attack were killed on the spot. Only a dozen lucky people survived to become prisoners of war in the Ming army.

And the Escalins obtained by these mercenaries who risked their lives to fight also became the trophies of the Ming army. I didn't understand what these round silver coins meant, but all the sergeants understood that they were silver!

Although the wounded of more than ten people survived temporarily, they would not have survived for long. For they were all wounded in the battle.

Needless to say, those who were hit by the lead bullet of the musket. Even if you can't die for a while, you will definitely not be able to resist when the sun comes out. As for those who were injured by the shock wave from the explosion of a grenade, or were hit by shrapnel. In the absence of effective treatment, their future is equally bleak.

If the wounded of this era want to live, they are completely resigned to fate.

The failure of Major Doplan's night attack meant that the castle of Geranza no longer had the ability and courage to continue to resist.

When the morning sun rises. After the earth reawakens. The Ming army began a morning of brutal artillery bombardment of the castle of Geranza, after clearing all the artillery that the Dutch had placed on the city walls. The magistrate ordered the white chess pieces to be hung on the city wall. This was also the decision of the Dayuan Island Colonial Assessment Conference. The Dutch saw absolutely no hope of holding on.

About six or seven hundred East India Company mercenaries laid down their weapons along with about the same number of natives of the South Seas. After that, led by the Dutch officials in the castle, they lined up and walked out of the castle once.

As for the commoners who ventured to distant places to earn a living, several clergy remained in the castle for the time being.

"Honorable General." The ugly-looking cat Nan Ding lowered his head and whispered, "We surrender to your army." ”

Gao Yang, who had a leisurely demeanor, sat on a chair. raised his eyelids and looked at the cat in front of him. A smile flashed in his eyes, and he said indifferently, "I said a long time ago that I would let you surrender, and you have to be beaten with a blue nose and swollen face to accept it." Deserve. ”

A complicated look flashed in the cat's eyes, and he took a deep breath. "Dear General, we hope to return to Batavia. We hope you will give us a few ships carrying people and cargo. ”

"Huh?" Gao Yang was slightly stunned. With a puzzled face, he raised his eyes and looked at the cat. Surprised, he said, "Who said you could go?" ”

The cat suddenly 'clicked' in his heart, and hurriedly said, "General, we have surrendered!" ”

"I know." Gao Yang waved his hand impatiently. Standing up, he looked straight at the frightened Dutch magistrate in front of him. The corners of his mouth hooked, revealing a weird smile, "Who said you can leave if you surrender?" ”

Gao Yang's expression gradually turned cold, and his eyes were full of indifference, "You have occupied the side of the master for more than twenty years. Plundering people's livelihood and doing all kinds of evil. Not to mention oppressing the people, he also sold the people of the Ming Dynasty as goods and went thousands of miles away as slaves! Now that you've lost the battle, you want to leave? Where in this world can there be such a good thing? ”

"General!" The cat was obviously anxious, "We can pay the ransom!" And these are the things that you said the East India Company did. It has nothing to do with us. We're just employees of the company! ”

"None of this matters." Gao Yang waved his hand indifferently. Walking slowly towards the outside of the tent, he said, "I will naturally go to them to pay the debts of the East India Company." But you are not innocent at all, because you did everything. Okay, nothing else. You have been powerful and blessed in the big people for more than 20 years, and I will erase all the odds, even if it is 20 years. You only need to compensate for serving twenty years of hard labor here. Twenty years later, I'll let you go. ”

"General!! Seeing Gao Yang leave the military tent, the anxious cat wanted to chase after him. It's just that the guards in the tent have stepped forward and pushed him to the ground. I guess he doesn't want to leave this island in his life.

Gao Yang didn't say that no one would be let go, at least those clergy were still let go by Gao Yang. However, these priests rejected Gao Yang's kindness, and they said that they would stay and comfort these Lambs of God.

Gao Yang didn't force it. If you don't want to go, then it's better to stay.

The fighting on Dayuan Island is basically over.

Several other small Dutch strongholds on the island are no cause for concern. There were even several places that were wiped out by the locals before the army could pass. Bloody human heads were hung on both sides of the road. The hatred accumulated over the past 20 years has already made both sides endless!

During this period, there were about 200,000 people on Dayuan Island. There are about 60,000 or 70,000 Han Chinese who have emigrated from the mainland, and some Japanese. Most of the others are local Gaoshan people. The number of these mountain tribes has always been estimated.

After fully accepting the entire island, Gao Yang announced the establishment of the Dayuan Mansion in the name of Emperor Chongzhen. Including Taipei, Taichung, Tainan, Penghu four counties. It is under the jurisdiction of Fujian Province.

Because the tax-paying grain on the entire Dayuan Island is less than 100,000 stones. The brand-new Dayuan Mansion is just an inferior mansion. However, as a new territory that has been opened up. It is sought after by a large number of scholars, and for no other reason than because there are many official positions vacant here!

Da Ming may not have much else. But the scholars who are waiting to be officials are gone.

Gao Yang naturally couldn't hand over the land he had worked so hard to give to those scholars and doctors who had read and read badly to waste. The candidates in Gao Yang's heart are those students who come out of the new-style school and receive modern education.

It's just that the time is too short. These people are not yet at the time to stand alone. At the same time, if you do so, it is tantamount to a direct negation of the imperial examination system that has been passed down for thousands of years. Although Gao Yang didn't care about this, he didn't want to take too big a step. Throw a bomb back on a country that has just barely stabilized.
