Xie Mingfeng looked at Governor Su Manville while thinking, "Your Excellency, you should still remember the agreement with our majesty, right?" ”

Governor Sumanville hesitated for a moment and asked, "What agreement?" ”

Xie Mingfeng's brows furrowed slightly, "Lord Governor, why did you forget about it so quickly?" You have agreed with us that no matter what happens, you will not harm the Chinese. ”

Governor Sumanville suddenly realized, "It turned out to be that incident, don't worry, I haven't forgotten, no matter what happens, I won't hurt the Chinese." ”

Xie Mingfeng smiled: "That's good, I'm worried that this time you will recruit the Chinese into the army and let them go with the natives to block the bullets of the British." ”

Governor Sumanville shook his head and smiled: "Please rest assured, and please rest assured that your majesty will never do that." ”

Xie Mingfeng praised Governor Sumanville a few words, and said goodbye, and one of Governor Sumanville's think tanks whispered to Sumanville: "Your Excellency Governor, the Chinese Empire has repeatedly asked us not to harm the Chinese, and now on the battlefield, the British, our Dutch and the natives have all been weakened, and only the Chinese family is left, our Pontianak, will it fall into the hands of the Chinese Empire?" ”

Governor Sumanville laughed, "This is absolutely impossible, the Huaxia Empire is more than a thousand kilometers away from Pontianak, how dare they dare to attack Pontianak?" Also, if they want to capture Pontianak, not only will we not agree, but the British will not agree either, and they will be the ones who will be attacked on both sides. ”

The think tank was still hesitant and wanted to say something, Governor Sumanville smiled: "Okay, don't think about this matter anymore, immediately go and convey the order to organize the natives into a 'death stormtrooper' to block the bullets of the British." ”

The think tank said "understood", and Governor Sumanville continued: "When forming a stormtrooper, we must brainwash and educate the natives, don't say that we let them block bullets, so that the natives will rebel, and it is inconvenient for us to control, but to protect their relatives and property, understand?" ”

The think tank agreed, and then went to prepare, in addition to brainwashing and education, the Dutch also used the method of money to buy, all the natives who joined the "death stormtrooper", each of them was rewarded with ten taels of gold...

Ten taels of gold, with the ability of these natives, they can't earn it in a lifetime, so the natives rushed to join the death stormtroopers, and the Dutch didn't give them guns, anyway, they were going to die in a while, and only gave them machetes, and then the machetes were not enough, so they collected kitchen knives from all over the city, and if the kitchen knives were not enough, let them take wooden sticks, anyway, they could scare the British.

In fact, the Dutch are deceiving the natives, so they won't give them gold, because the natives are so numerous, and the Dutch are not willing to pay so much money.

The Death Stormtroopers were quickly formed, and at two o'clock in the morning, at the command of the Dutch commander, the natives screamed and slaughtered through the gap opened by the British.

The British expected a counterattack by the Dutch in the city, so they had already prepared for it, and immediately opened fire when they saw the natives come out, and the Enfield rifles and Maxim machine guns formed an impenetrable network of firepower, and the natives fell in pieces.

The people in front fell, the people behind stepped on the corpses and rushed forward, the British were also a little frightened when they saw this battle, the British army fought with the indigenous people in many areas in the Nanyang area, such as in the Malay Peninsula, Burma, etc., especially in Burma, there were three Anglo-Burmese wars, in these wars, the aborigines were a rabble most of the time, and they were crushed at the touch of a button, and they have never been so afraid of death today.

The British commander Thompson saw that the rifle and machine gun were not good, so he decisively ordered to pull the light mountain gun to the front line, level the muzzle, and bombard it directly into the crowd...

Fifteen mountain cannons soon came to the natives, and a ball of fire rose in the crowd, and each shell would overturn a large group of natives, and the battlefield was full of natives' wails and screams for a while, the air was full of blood, and the earth was stained red with blood...

Lin Fei on the high ground in the distance was awakened by the sound of cannons, got up with a yawn, and ordered the attendants to prepare for supper while enjoying the beautiful scenery of these natives being slaughtered. When the waiter brought the supper snack, Lin Fei took two bites and sighed helplessly, the dim sum made by his attendant was much worse than Xue'er's.

The natives on the battlefield felt fear in front of the cannons, they threw down machetes, kitchen knives and wooden sticks, and began to run behind, and the Dutch overseers set up the Grimm cannons and opened fire, and the natives saw that they were all dead, and it was better to fight to the death with the British, so they pounced on the British army again.

The British logistics officer's face changed, and he said to Thompson: "General, our Maxim heavy machine gun ammunition and shells are almost exhausted, and I am afraid that Enfield rifles alone will not be able to stop this charge." ”

In the face of this dense charge, the hand-fired, five-cartridge-fed Enfield rifles were obviously powerless and could only rely on the Maxim heavy machine gun and the light horse-drawn mountain gun, both of which were dangerous to the British as soon as they ran out of ammunition, and although the British carried a lot of ammunition, they were almost exhausted in the daytime battle.

Thompson had no choice but to order: "The whole army retreats..."The British army immediately began to retreat, the Dutch army did not give up, and ordered the natives to continue the pursuit, the natives saw the British retreating, and immediately saw the hope of victory, brandishing machetes and kitchen knives to chase up, and the well-trained British soldiers shot while retreating, and the natives did not take advantage of it at all.

The Dutch army saw that the British army was almost weakened by the natives, and rushed up from behind with a gun, and fired indiscriminately at the British army, the British army did not expect this trick at all, many soldiers were knocked to the ground, Thompson could only order the troops to speed up the retreat, and the two sides fought in the dark for more than three hours until the British army hurriedly fled back to the port, and the Dutch army stopped chasing, because the port was the range of fire of the British warships, and the Dutch army was very afraid of the British fleet's artillery fire.

The battlefield returned to calm, Lin Fei woke up from his return to his sleep, and asked while eating breakfast, "How many people died on both sides last night?" ”

Zhang Chuang said excitedly: "I think the natives have to die thousands of people, the battlefield is full of their corpses, and there are even more wounded." ”

Lin Fei nodded first, and then looked suspicious, "Why are the natives so desperate?" Did the Dutch do any magic? ”

Zhang Chuang said with a smile: "It is said that the Dutch used the means of brainwashing and education on the one hand, and on the other hand, they used the means of money to buy, and they also set up a war team on the battlefield. ”

Lin Fei frowned, and said in a worried voice: "I actually used money to buy it..."

Zhang Chuang was stunned for a moment and asked, "What are you worried about?" What does it have to do with us that they bought them? ”

Lin Fei frowned and asked, "Do you say that the Dutch will pay money as promised?" ”

"Of course not..."

"That's right, that's what I'm worried about, the Dutch don't pay money, the natives must be furious, they throw away their lives, and in the end they don't get a penny, how can they not be angry? As soon as they become angry, they may come into conflict with the Dutch, and when the English take advantage of the situation, we will lose all our efforts. ”

"Your Majesty is right, but do we have a good solution?"

Lin Fei thought for a moment, picked up the brush and wrote a letter, handed the letter to Zhang Chuang, and said: "I came up with such a way for the Dutch, let them sue the natives, and the money promised to them will definitely be paid, but if it is postponed for a while, the natives will have a hope, and they will not have the intention of making trouble." ”

"I wrote my plan in the letter, sent someone to send this letter to Xie Mingfeng, and then you and I will go with me to the port where the British are, and I will meet Claros to test the attitude of the British towards the future situation."

Zhang Chuang sent the letter away first, and then followed Lin Fei to the port, the British army occupied the building near the port, and set up camp here, Lin Fei came to the camp, first met the patrol sentry, Lin Fei explained his identity, asked to see Claros, the sentry replied: "The envoy is in a meeting, please wait for a while." ”

An officer took Lin Fei and his entourage to the lounge, and it was almost an hour before Claros came to see Lin Fei, Claros' face was full of anger, Lin Fei knew that he was annoyed by last night's failure, but he deliberately pretended to be confused, "Why is Mr. Claros angry?" ”

Claros said gloomily: "How can I not be angry if I have lost on the battlefield? ”

Lin Fei persuaded: "Don't blame your subordinates for the failure, the Dutch army used the crowd tactic, after all, your bullets don't have too many, it's too normal to not be able to stop them." ”

Claros smiled bitterly, "We thought we could fight a quick battle, but we didn't expect to be defeated by the Dutch, and this battle is not easy to fight." ”

Lin Fei's heart moved, "Mr. Claros, with the national strength of the British Empire, this small setback is probably nothing, right?" ”

Claros sighed, "Although our empire is strong, but after all, it is too expensive to fight, our support base is still in Singapore, more than 400 miles away from here, and it costs a lot of money to transport food and ammunition, and those rich people in Congress are not willing to spend so much money." ”

Lin Fei was secretly proud, but his face was worried, "Your country should be difficult to ride a tiger, right?" ”

Claros shook his head and said, "Before we get to that Cheng Dù, the second batch of reinforcements will arrive soon, I believe that as soon as this batch of reinforcements arrives, Pontianak will be defeated." ”

Lin Fei was taken aback, what if the British increased their troops too much and the Dutch couldn't stop it? Lin Fei hurriedly asked, "I don't know how many troops your country wants to increase?" ”

Claros hesitated for a moment, "This is a military secret, I can't reveal it." ”
