Chapter 543: "Snail" Falls

Sergeant Gonzalez had always complained about the policy of conniving at the local natives to plunder the wealthy Chinese, and don't get me wrong, the Castilian who chose to pan for gold in the adventurer's paradise of the Spanish colonies of South Pacific was not a good man, and his compassion had nothing to do with him.

Gonzalez's stubborn belief that the Manila colonial authorities should treat the Chinese with long braids behind their heads was clearly influenced by the horror stories told in the taverns of European mercenaries who had fled West Borneo.

To put it bluntly, the white European mercenaries who survived the catastrophe were basically bandits and criminals who poured in from the Europa continent, but Sergeant Gonzalez saw the fear in the eyes of these vicious men when they talked about the Great Song people.

When they were sober, these fierce-looking mercenaries were largely silent about what had happened to them in the jungles of West Borneo.

However, once enough rum has been poured in, many people will talk about their experiences of fighting the Great Song in West Borneo, well, perhaps it would be more appropriate to describe those battles as tortured and killed, since many narrators claim that they didn't even see their opponents, the Great Song people, during the battle.

The cannonballs that fall from the sky with their characteristic whistling sounds, the yellow-green murderous smoke that silently fills your surroundings, the deadly cold guns, and the cold-blooded pursuit like maggots with bones may sound like fantasy tales of drunks trying to trick them into drinking, but Sergeant Gonzalez thinks it's a real thing, even though it's mixed with water. Otherwise, you would not be able to explain how the Dutch, who had been in business in West Borneo for half a century, were expelled from their land in less than a month.

It is said that the Great Song people also set up a special court in West Borneo to try the natives and whites who had previously invaded the Chinese in Borneo.

I heard that those who were prosecuted can be regarded as lucky people who have been kissed on the forehead by God if they can be sentenced to hard labor, once it sticks to the genocide mentioned by the Great Song people, you had better pray that you can be hanged and happy, after all, those puppets of Lanfang Kingdom are not as civilized as the Great Song people.

So in order to make sure that he would not get involved with that sensational charge in the future, Sergeant Gonzalez almost always objected like a thorn in the face whenever an order was issued against the Chinese people in Manila.

Although as a low-key non-commissioned officer, his opinions were bound to be ignored by his superiors, Gonzalez still enjoyed it. This eventually led to his downmotion from sergeant to sergeant, and many of his subordinates who had been loyal to him slowly distanced themselves from him.

Finding that his arms could not be twisted around his thighs, Gonzalez began to take a circuitous route, consciously collecting all the paper documents that were contrary to the orders issued by the Spanish colonial authorities against the Chinese.

Even the order that he refused to carry out the orders of his superiors and caused him to be confined and demoted to the rank of the army, he kept them safe.

Yes, Sergeant Gonzalez was so unoptimistic about the combat effectiveness of the Spanish garrison in Manila, even if the Governor repeatedly claimed that they had more warships in the South Pacific than the Great Song people, and after hundreds of years of coastal fortifications, they would definitely not repeat the mistakes of the Dutch.

Hmph, does it make any sense to say quantity? When we landed in South America, the Indians were not 10,000 times larger than our expeditionary force, but what was the result?

"Garcia, what's going on over there, why are the gunshots so intense? Did those fools start shooting at the Great Song 'Iron Dragonfly' in the sky again? Gonzalez, who was hiding behind the fortifications and making coffee, asked one of his men.

"No, Sergeant, this is the order of Second Lieutenant Mendoza to shoot and disperse the Chinese who tried to enter the docks." The young man named Garcia was a die-hard Gonzalez, and even though Gonzalez had been demoted to sergeant a few weeks earlier, he still referred to his old leader by his previous rank.

"What? Did the noble ensign start drinking before it got dark? He actually dared to order the shooting of the Huaxia people under the noses of the Great Song people? Gonzalez spilled his coffee when he heard Garcia's answer.

"Yes, Mr. Sergeant, I have seen at least thirty Chinese people fall to the ground after being shot." Garcia said anxiously.

The news that there is a super-giant ship in the direction of the Sulu Sea that has been advancing towards Manila has not been here for a day or two, how iron is this conceited second lieutenant, how dare he give such a crazy order that harms others and himself at this time?

"God, gather all your brothers to my side! Let's hope that damned baron's bastard has saved up enough silver to hire a lawyer! Gonzalez said to Garcia.

In Manila, there has been more than one captain who has described the huge size of the super ship, even if it is just a troop transport, but at the moment the defenders of Manila are worried about their combat strength, they are afraid that their fate will not be much better than that of the Dutch, how can such a large ship carry tens of thousands of soldiers!

Even if it's a backward battleship like the Governor's mouth (the kind of battleship with guns on both sides of the Sail Age), you have to think about the terrifying range and accuracy of the Great Song artillery, and what are you going to use to block it? By your ironclads, which are not necessarily more advanced than the Dutch?

"In the command center, the Spaniards ignored our warnings and are still shooting at Chinese civilians." The rough embryo on the Ka-27 "Snail" anti-submarine helicopter, codenamed B1, reported to Yang Guang.

The warning in this cargo mouth is nothing more than lowering the flight altitude than before, and passing over the area where the conflict occurred several times. It's just an anti-submarine helicopter with depth charges and torpedoes cut out, how can it take the Spaniards on the ground?

As for sniping ground targets with a gantry gun in an open engine room, I'm sorry that the entire 38th Task Force has not mastered this technology, and it is difficult to say whether a casual two shots will cause a mechanical failure caused by the cartridge casing.

"B1, immediately anti-ship." Yang Guang replied.

"What? Just got slapped in the face and walked away immediately? The pilot of the Ka-27 asked.

"Or else? The Interim Executive Committee hasn't discussed a result, what else can you do there besides wasting oil? Yang Guang said.

If it was an old bird like Xu Jing and Feng Lan who were piloting the plane, most of them would have carried out the order and returned immediately. But if you don't have anything to do, you won't lack those self-righteous fools.

", drop a little more and fly over their scalps!" The co-pilot egged.

"Okay!" The pilot, who was also a fool of the moment, immediately lowered his flight altitude and planned to demonstrate to the Spaniards.

What is the technology of this product? After you arrived in the South China Sea from the 38th Fleet, the embarrassing dilemma of several carrier-based helicopters being idle for a long time can roughly guess the level of these fools, I am afraid that it is really better than Kang Xiaoshuai, who hit a bird in an F-15C.

"Hey, hey, why do I feel a little shaky?"

"There seems to be turbulence!"

"Steady, big brother!"

"Holy, is this shaking so much!?"

"Turn off the fuel and close it!"

"Over there, go over there, it's the beach!"

There was a panic in the communication channel, and then Yang Guang received the "Mayday" signal from the front.

Crashed? Isn't that too unexpected?
