Chapter 312: The Great War of the Americas II
"Fire!"
Bang bang bang......
The sound of musket volleys made the white gentlemen crowded in the harbor squeeze forward even harder in fear, and many gentlemen and domestic servants who were not very agile were squeezed into the sea one after another, like landlubbers falling into the water, splashing one after another!
The gentleman who doesn't know how to water is desperately shouting for help in the sea, but unfortunately, where is anyone paying attention to these at this time?
Even those sailors who were losing money didn't care about continuing to carry the fat sheep, and a large group of sailors joined the crowded ranks under the strict orders of the captain!
In fact, they knew the severity of the matter without the captain's order, because the sailors on the ship had already seen the pigeon battle flag flying outside the harbor!
At the same time, the warships that did not dock in the port also stopped watching, lined up in a neat battle line, and bombarded the Han soldiers on the periphery of the port!
The garrison soldiers who retreated to the harbor were actually very close to the realm of 'being defeated by the army', and if it weren't for the encouragement of the artillery bombardment of their own warships drifting in the harbor, they would have surrendered on their knees or run away!
In the harbor, the gentlemen were fighting with the sailors for the possession of the pedals, and they could not let the sailors take back the life-saving pedals, however, the gentlemen who had successfully landed on the ship joined the sailors' side, and fought hard to remove the pedals that were fixed to the deck, so that the ship could 'go' quickly!
What the two sides of the competition did not know was that at this time, the sails of this warship docked had not been fully raised, and the anchor head had just been pulled up......
Obviously, why are these garrison soldiers so desperate?
It wasn't their relatives and family members who fled, they were just a group of upper-class people!
After several iconic resistance officers were stabbed to death by the surging Indian soldiers, the barely maintained resistance front in the harbor collapsed under the bayonet assault!
Even though the warships in the harbor have been replaced with grape eggs, they are sweeping down the Han soldiers who rushed up with bayonets one by one!
The gentlemen who did not squeeze onto the boat stopped struggling in despair, for fear that these 'lowly soldiers' with their faces full of gunpowder smoke and blood would not go well and pick themselves with bayonets, and obediently find a corner and raise their hands and shout 'Surrender'.

Here, there is a key point, the war between the Han Empire and the anti-Han alliance is different from the nature of the war that has always been fought in Europe, in short, the two sides are not only fighting a war between countries, but a war between ethnic groups!
The war propaganda slogan of the Han Empire was, take back the homeland of the Americans, and liberate the 'yellow race' of the whole Americas!
Yes, under the propaganda of the Han Empire, Indians and Indo-European mixed-race people belong to the yellow race, of course, they do not exclude the white race, but the yellow race occupies the majority of the population in the Americas, and the small number of white people in the Han Empire is not eye-catching......
The exception is the white army of Surrender!
The Han Empire came up with the great righteousness of liberating the Americas and liberating the Indians, and the anti-Han alliance naturally could not lag behind, and the British also put forward the slogan of returning the freedom of blacks and eliminating the human demon Zhao Dutian!
At this time, in the eyes of Europeans, and even in the eyes of illiterate black slaves, Zhao Dutian has become a heinous demon, and how much baby to eat every day has been propagated by the bigwigs of the anti-Han alliance!
Anyway, how scary and how to describe Zhao Dutian!
Moreover, the British also avoided the disadvantageous situation of being hostile to the Indians of the whole America, and they preached only against Zhao Dutian and his Han Empire, and other Indians and Indo-European mixed blood, as long as they were willing to lay down their arms, they were still friendly 'family'!
Thanks to the limitations of this era, the spread of news basically depends on roaring, and the propaganda slogans of both sides can be spread in the areas controlled by the two sides, and it is absolutely impossible to spread them into the enemy-occupied areas!
In other words, the Brazilian natives and Indo-European people did not know that the Han Empire was coming to liberate them, and at the same time, the people under the control of the Han Empire did not know that the anti-Han alliance wanted Zhao Dutian's life, not to deprive them of the land they had been allocated......
Sporadic rumors, under the official propaganda, can't make much of a storm at all!
Therefore, these white gentlemen who surrendered on the port were all scared to death, in the official caliber, the Han Empire was a barbaric and cannibalistic country, and they became their prisoners, and they didn't know if they could continue to live......
Compared with the conscientious battles of these white gentlemen, those white soldiers who surrendered are very open, if they don't surrender, they will die immediately, and if they surrender, they may die later.
Under the charge of the soldiers of the National Guard of the Americas, the overloaded warship failed to set sail, and those warships also withdrew from the port while fighting after the fall of the port, otherwise, when the Han soldiers took control of the port battery, it would not be them who unilaterally tortured and killed the enemy!
In just one day, the Dutch once again showed the weakness of their will to resist, and the only political, economic, and cultural center of Dutch Guiana, the city of Paramaribo, fell so easily......
By the way, Han soldiers also captured a British frigate......
After getting the news, the bigwigs of the anti-Han alliance looked ugly and ugly, especially Madame de Pompadour, who became even more seriously ill after learning that in the early days of the war, the anti-Han alliance had nothing to gain except for the loss of troops and generals......
The fall of the city of Paramaribo also marked the abandonment of resistance by the whole territory of Dutch Guiana, and the American National Guard regained the rest of Dutch Guiana without blood, but the resistance of French Guiana was unexpectedly strong, so that the rapid advance of the Han Empire since the beginning of the war suffered some setbacks!
Of course, only slightly!
Zhao Dutian seemed to be determined to take the entire Guyana, and the American National Guard, which had an absolute advantage in numbers, regardless of casualties, launched a continuous attack on the built French Guiana position!
According to statistics, on the fiercest day of fighting, the number of casualties on both sides was as high as 10,000!
Of course, the troops that French Guiana could fight were quickly lost, and this only French colony in South America was ceded out......
However, in the subsequent battles, the combat effectiveness of the French was obviously dozens of times stronger than that of the Dutch, and the National Guard of the Americas paid a lot of casualties before they were really driven out of the entire French Guiana!
Thanks to the stubborn resistance of French Guiana, the anti-Han alliance was finally ready to fight back under the preemptive tactics of the Han Empire!
