Chapter 124: The Abandoned Remnant

After hearing this, the black head immediately got up and said loudly: "Great boss! The subordinates are willing to take a detachment of men and horses tomorrow to go and get these damn dried silk...... Oh! It should be the Spaniards who cleaned it up! I also hope that the big boss will be invited by his subordinates! ”

After hearing this, the one-eyed dragon also stood up and said, "Great master! Today's subordinates are really tight! As soon as the war began, the subordinate ships were destroyed by these bastard foreign devils! I didn't even catch up with the good show in the back! This time, the subordinates are willing to ask the big boss to allocate a few boats to his subordinates to help the black-headed brothers clean up those Spaniards! ”

For a while, the group of brothers under Yu Xiaotian stood up with great interest and asked for their lives, asking to go to war tomorrow to clean up the Spaniards who were stranded on the island of Taiwan.

But in the end, they were all voted back by Yu Xiaotian.

"Rest for yourselves, all of you. We didn't bring many soldiers with us this time, basically all of them were sailors, and there were not many soldiers on this side of Keelung Fort, although we had ships and cannons, but this battle had to be fought on the shore, and we wanted to eat so many Spanish infantry in one bite, obviously even if our teeth were good enough, I am afraid that we would have to break a few teeth!

These Spanish infantry are not easy to deal with, and the phalanx tactics that I used to let my soldiers, including the sailors, practice, were the first to come from these Spaniards! They're experts, so even if we can eat them, we're afraid we'll kill a lot of brothers!

For these Spaniards, now that they are trapped beasts, why should we bother to play with them again? You must know that once these guys are forced to hurry, there will be a battle of trapped beasts, and we will be eaten by them at that time!

So I'm not going to deal with them by force! Yu Xiaotian said.

The black head immediately asked: "Big boss, we don't need to use force, can we just sit back and wait for them to surrender?" According to the report of the scouts sent to them, they have set up a camp on the shore after they landed, and although it is not strong, it can last for a while, so can we just spend it with them? ”

Yu Xiaotian shook his head and smiled: "Don't think too highly of them!" When I returned, I had already interrogated a few interpreters, and according to them, the Spaniards did not intend to stay there for long, but were only ordered to go ashore and prepare to find a way on the shore to attack Keelung Fort.

And their commander did not unload all the goods on the ship at all, and now most of the goods have either sunk with the ship or have been pulled back by us, and the food left by the infantry on the shore is not enough for them to support them for five days, even if they save food, I am afraid they will not last for a few days.

Now they only have one boat to escape, even if he goes to ask for help, if he can ask for reinforcements to arrive here, the nearest one will have to go to Manila in Luzon, I am afraid it will take two months to go back and forth at the earliest, and the sea will soon reach the windy season, they will never be able to rush back within two months!

What's more, as far as I know about them, this time they have used almost all the forces they can muster, and they have almost been wiped out here, and I doubt that they will be able to muster together the troops and ships that come to the rescue!

So for these Spaniards on the shore, let's not rush to deal with them, let them panic for a few days, and then it's not too late! When they run out of food, I don't believe they will be able to fight us on an empty stomach! ”

When everyone heard this, they didn't say anything more, Yu Xiaotian arranged for the black heads, sent a group of soldiers, divided into several small teams, and sneaked near the camp on the shore of the Spaniards, lurked in the mountains and forests, stared at these Spaniards, blocked them from looking for food and water sources everywhere, and trapped them on the shore.

On the other hand, the sailors dispatched some of the ships in better condition, and worked three shifts a day to blockade the sea, so as to prevent the escaped big ship from sneaking back to rescue the Spaniards on the shore.

In fact, even if Anthony secretly ran back at this time, his boat probably wouldn't be able to stuff so many people on the boat and bring them back to Manila, so Yu Xiaotian thought that the boat that escaped at this time should have been on the way back to Manila in a panic, and they would not have the courage to return to this place where they were almost completely wiped out.

For the next few days, the Spaniards stranded on the shore were all terrified, huddled in the camp on the shore, bewildered.

The scene of the fierce battle between their fleet and the fleet of the sea wolves on the sea all fell into their eyes, and when the fleet of sea wolves arrived, these infantry stood on the shore, and they were very excited, thinking that they could finally take revenge.

At the beginning of the war, when they watched their splint ships spew flames like fire dragons, smashing pirate ships to pieces, they stood on the shore and cheered loudly for their fleet.

But the next scene on the sea threw their hot hearts into the ice cave, first their speedboat fleet was gang-raped by the pirates' sloops, one by one they were sunk in the water, and then the big ship with the speedboat was captured by the pirates.

Instead, their fleet began to entangle with the sea wolf's fleet, and it was only then that the Spaniards realized that things seemed to be going in their favor.

Although these pirate ships are not very good, they are like hungry wolves, biting their big ships.

Originally, their large plywood ships looked majestic, but once they were surrounded by the pirates' fleet, they found that their large plywood ships had become clumsy bulls, surrounded by a large group of vicious wolves and desperately biting them, and they no longer had the same majesty as when they first started the war.

These pirates were fierce and fierce, braving the fierce fire of these large plywood ships, and desperately rushed over and tore at them, and it was not long before they saw one of their large ships on fire.

Then they saw that the flotilla they had been proud of began to crumble, and one by one they tried to escape from the wolves, but they could not do so, and then another ship was set on fire by the enemy and burned to the ground.

By this time they had seen that their fleet had been defeated in this naval battle, and now they no longer imagined that their fleet would slaughter all the pirates, but began to pray to God that their fleet would get out of the trap quickly, pick them up, and leave this land of right and wrong.

But the final result was that they were desperate to the extreme, and their large ships were killed one after another under the bite of these sea wolves, and in the end only the ship of Commander Anthony remained, and with its thick skin and sharp artillery, it barely escaped from the battle circle.

But their commander, Your Excellency, was no longer able to pick up those who had remained on the shore, and under the pursuit of the sea wolf, they fled and disappeared into the sea.

The Spanish infantrymen were utterly desperate, and when they saw the ships with the sea wolves beginning to approach the shore where they were, they scattered and rushed back to their camps, where they began to work frantically under the command of their infantry commanders.

They forced the craftsmen and slaves who had brought with them to raise and thicken their strongholds, and threw themselves into the construction, and with great exertion, they made their humble camp a fairly strong one in a very short time.

They built walls, dug trenches, cut timber on the spot, erected horses, sharpened sticks, and stuck them outside the barracks, in short, they thought of all the means they could think of, for fear that the barracks would not be strong enough for the pirates to storm their barracks or destroy them, and eventually slaughter them.

But in the next few days they found that the pirates seemed to have ignored them, and although the pirates' ships were still cruising on the sea, they never attacked them, and no large number of pirates came to surround their camps, as if they did not exist, and left them on the shore.

But these Spaniards still did not dare to take it lightly, in the next few days, they continued to expand and strengthen their camp every day, originally just an ordinary camp, in the case of hundreds of people for several days of high-intensity construction, actually formed a fairly strong earthen fort, all kinds of fortifications and defense facilities are quite complete, although the lack of artillery, but with their hundreds of arquebuses, it has become very difficult to break through this camp.

But after a few days, the Spaniards found that all their efforts had been in vain, as they were running out of food.

Only then did they understand why these pirates did not rush to attack them, but simply ignored them, and just left them on the shore, because the pirates had already expected that they did not have much food, and there was no need to attack them, and time would defeat them.

The Spaniards became even more frightened, and they prayed every day that Anthony would come back and pick them up, but every day they hoped for them ended in disappointment.

In fact, they themselves knew in their hearts that Anthony could not defeat these pirates even if he led a complete fleet, and now that he only had one ship left, it was impossible to defeat these pirates.

At this time, it is estimated that Anthony has already taken his ship with him, and is on the way to Manila in a state of panic, and he must not dare to come back here and take the risk to rescue them, otherwise if his ship is lost here, then they will be completely annihilated here.
