335. Interrogation of Captives [1/2]
The archers of the Great Meng Kingdom shot angrily, and it was about three hundred archers who shot together with anger, this time it was really like a rain of arrows, how could the twenty-five gunners on the Dutch troop transport ship withstand such an attack.
In this strange world, the range of the firebolt is not as far as the range of the guns of later generations, the range of the firebolt is only two hundred meters, and if it exceeds two hundred meters, it will completely lose the hit rate, and the "precision shooting" of the "archers" has a range of two hundred meters. Therefore, the firebolt has no range advantage over the bow and arrow.
In addition, in the hands of the "guns", the speed of reloading and firing of firearms is faster than that of ordinary people, but it is still much slower than that of bows and arrows...... The archer only needs to shoot the bow and the arrow, and after two actions, he can shoot, but the "gunner" needs to clean the barrel, reload the ammunition, and light the arquebus before firing.
The biggest advantage of the "gunner" over the "archers" is the lethality, the lethality of the "archers" is very limited, and the shield of the "guard" can easily catch the "accurate shot" released by the archers, but the "sniper" of the gunners is almost impossible to block with a shield, even if the third-order generals use the "guard like a mountain", they will be injured by the firecracker, and the fourth-order "tiger guard" can barely catch the firecracker bullet.
Well, contrast done!
The twenty gunmen on the Dutch ship, when there was no "escort" to protect them with shields, were not much different from the combat effectiveness of the "archers", and they did not have much advantage in shooting, and now they were far inferior in numbers, and the result was of course needless to say.
A dense rain of arrows fell on the Dutch troop carriers, and more than a dozen gunners were immediately shot into hedgehogs, and a few people were injured but not killed, and the Dutch were startled, and even the courage to jump out and fight back was lost. Everyone was huddled behind the side of the ship, but ...... If the big moe country comes over is a ship. It's okay to hide behind the side of the boat. But there were two ships rushing over, one on the left and one on the right, and the Dutch soldiers were hiding behind the side of the left ship, and they would be shot by the incoming ship on the right. Hide behind the right side of the boat. It will be shot by the incoming ship on the left.
It really didn't take place to hide, and the archers didn't give them any chance to hide. Another wave of arrows flew fiercely, turning the few hiding guys into hedgehogs. There was only one guy like a captain, lying on the deck and crawling desperately. Climbed into the cabin and hid.
After the ship's guns were disposed of. The Dutch troop carriers have completely lost their speed because there is no one to handle the sails...... The two warships of the Great Moe Kingdom soon approached, sandwiching the Dutch ship bag in the middle.
The sailors threw their hooks and hooked the side of the Dutch ship, drawing it closer to their own, and then attached planks to the side of the ship. The "archers" did not move, but a group of "guards" came out. Jumping onto the Dutch ship with a shield on his head.
Although there is no longer a standing enemy on the ship, the officers and soldiers of the Great Meng Kingdom are still more cautious, and they are always on guard against the enemy on the ship to break out and hurt people, it can be seen from here that the combat effectiveness of the Beiyang Naval Division is okay, and it is not known how many times stronger than the old soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River. At least, it's very disciplined on the battlefield. But their vigilance was a little redundant, and the Dutch soldiers on the ship lay in a horizontal position, full of feathered arrows, and they could no longer die, and it was impossible for them to jump up and hurt anyone.
The officers and soldiers easily took over the entire troop transport ship, and it didn't take long for the captain who had escaped into the cabin to be pulled out, escorted back to his own Dafu ship, and then sailed towards the giant dragon boat where Zhu Qingqing was driving, apparently, to hand over this prisoner to His Majesty the Emperor to dispose of.
The officers and men were obviously very angry with the Dutch robbers, and they were punching and kicking the prisoner all the way, and within a few minutes, the guy was beaten with a swollen nose and a swollen face, and he kept shouting something in Dutch, but unfortunately the officers and soldiers did not understand it at all. ...,
Yi Yun and Li Huamei watched this scene from a distance, and couldn't help but high-five, and said happily: "The officers and soldiers have taken the enemy ship!"
"Well, it's great to get a prisoner! Now the officers and soldiers can force out some information about the Dutch from the mouth of the prisoner, and I hope that Zhu Qingqing will fight this battle cautiously after listening to the information of the Dutch. Yi Yun sighed: "By the way, Admiral Li, what did the Dutchman shout when he was arrested just now? Although we are far away, the sea breeze is blowing right on our side, and we can faintly hear a little, I think you should hear it." β
Li Huamei spread her hands and said, "Actually, I don't want to translate, so I won't make you angry, but if you ask, I'll just say it...... What he shouted was: I hope that the people of the Great Meng Kingdom can treat the captives civilly!"
"Fuck!" As soon as Yi Yun heard this, he was immediately furious: "Wen fucking Ming, they just brutally threw the captives of the Great Meng Kingdom into the Great Sand Sea in front of us, and now they want us to treat the captives civilly? This guy's brain is burned out? If I were Zhu Qingqing, I would cut this guy with 3,600 knives, and slowly cut them to death with one knife at a time." β
After a while, the captive was transported to the giant dragon boat, and the two "guards" of the Great Meng Kingdom were still punching and kicking the Dutchman, pushing him in front of Zhu Qingqing like a dog.
"Your Majesty, the soldiers have sent the Dutch captives!" Ye Lou, the commander of the Beiyang Naval Division, said respectfully: "Please let Your Majesty personally dispose of him." β
"Hmm!" Zhu Qingqing straightened her appearance, although she was playful, she still knew some basic royal etiquette, when facing her own courtiers, she was not very particular, but when facing foreigners, she had to pay attention to it, otherwise she would weaken her demeanor of the Heavenly Empire.
"Dutch bandits!" Zhu Qingqing said seriously: "You have been captured, what do you have to say?"
The Dutch captain said: "β β²ββββββ", he said Dutch, and Zhu Qingqing obviously didn't understand.
"What did he say?" Zhu Qingqing turned his head and asked Zheng Shuliang, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion.
The scholar lifted his hat, and the Great Khan said, "Weichen can't understand either!"
"What? Don't you often boast that you are great at learning? Say that there is no book in the world that you haven't read!" Zhu Qingqing was annoyed: "You can't even say a word, how can you become a scholar?"
Zheng Shuliang sweated profusely, and hurriedly said: "There is indeed no book in the world that Weichen has not read, but ...... Ahem...... Books written in Fan language are not among them, I am a bachelor of the Heavenly Empire, and I am learning the knowledge of Confucius and Mencius sages, and the things that are messy and can't be put on the table, how can I learn? Learning those things will only lose the face of our Dameng country!"
Most of the Donglin Party members are pedantic, and they are all repulsive to foreign things, so none of the people in the boat can speak Dutch, everyone, you stare at me, I stare at you, and sweat together.
"A bunch of waste, don't know how to distinguish the best for the king!" Zhu Qingqing pouted unhappily.
At this time, the thirty-second father-in-law came out and flattered: "Your Majesty, the slave is in charge of the East Factory, and he has a very good set of questioning prisoners, otherwise let the slave come to interrogate." β
"Okay, you ask!" Zhu Qingqing waved his hand.
The thirty-second father-in-law walked in front of the Dutch captive with a strange smile, and said with a smile: "We don't understand what you say, I don't know if you can understand what we say, if you can understand, blink three times, if you don't understand, then it's useless, we have to cut off your head and throw it into the sea to feed the fish." β
The Dutch obviously understood the big cute language, and when he heard the words of the thirty-two father-in-law, he was suddenly startled, and in order to show that he was useful, he quickly blinked three times.
The people next to him looked at it, ha, sure enough, the head of the East Factory had a way, and he communicated with the enemy in one sentence. ...,
"Well, that's good!" the thirty-second duke laughed twice, and suddenly, the sword light flashed in his hand, blood flew up, and one of the Dutchman's right hands suddenly fell off his shoulder and fell on the deck with a pop.
"Wow!" the civil officials of the Donglin Party were startled, and they all took half a step back. The Dutchman did not expect that the thirty-second father-in-law would slash him at this time, didn't he blink? He screamed and fell to the ground, rolling on the ground in pain, and the blood was splashed all over the ground with his rolling movements, and the scene was very horrible.
"Thirty-two father-in-law, what are you doing?" Zheng Shuliang shouted.
Even Zhu Qingqing frowned and said, "What kind of fame? β
The thirty-second father-in-law laughed twice, stepped on the Dutchman with his foot, made him unable to roll any longer, and then said, "I told him to blink, so I didn't cut off his head, but I didn't say not to cut off his arm...... This sword is for the eighty-seven people who were pushed into the sea to vent their anger......"
Although the Donglin Party is not on the right path with the Eunuch Party, it is also embarrassed to jump out and deliberately contradict the Eunuch Party on this issue.
The thirty-second father-in-law stepped on the Dutchman and continued, "Now I ask you, do you want to make them work for you?"
The Dutchman was frightened by the cruelty of the thirty-two father-in-law's smile and slashing people's arms without blinking, for fear that he would be slashed again if he answered slowly, so he quickly nodded violently.
"How many people have you captured?" asked the thirty-second father-in-law.
The Dutchman raised his left hand, which had not yet been cut off, and held out two fingers.
"Twenty thousand?" Thirty-two fathers-in-law were furious!
"Hmm......" The Dutchman shook his head in fright and re-gestured his fingers.
"Two thousand?" asked the thirty-second father-in-law again.
"Uh-huh......" the Dutchman nodded desperately.
"Damn! Actually arrest 2,000 of my people! Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, the shore of the land, the king's ministers, all the people of the Dameng country, are your majesty's things, you Dutch people dare to take it without asking, you are simply looking for death. With a wave of the long sword in the thirty-second duke's hand, the Dutchman's right leg was separated from his body again...... Blood splattered again, but this time he couldn't roll on the ground, because the thirty-second father-in-law stomped on him so hard that he wouldn't struggle. The Dutchman howled, and his whole body trembled.
