When Shichiro Yoshida saw the captives who were tied into zongzi, his originally pale face was a little more flushed, and he didn't know if he was frightened or excited.

Matsushita Tomaki immediately said: "Shichiro, hurry up and ask him in your native language, how many soldiers do they have, and what is the purpose?" ”

Shichiro Yoshida said, "I only speak the language of the Kaida Gran people, and I don't know if the language of Ikuban is the same. ”

"Ask now!" Zhao Dahe, who was being assisted by his subordinates in putting on armor, scolded.

Shichiro Yoshida immediately asked in the local language, he was already a little scared, and at the moment he stammered, and the language he was not familiar with was even more difficult to speak.

"He understood, and he said to give him water to drink." Shichiro Yoshida shouted excitedly as soon as the captive said a word.

The water bladder was handed to Shichiro Yoshida, and when it was time to feed the other party's river water, the guy was a head hammer that hit Shichiro Yoshida's nose, laughed loudly, pounced, stretched his neck with all his might, opened his mouth wide, especially showed a mouthful of big yellow teeth, and bit at Shichiro Yoshida's neck.

"Bastard thing." Seeing that this Shengfan was crazy, Matsushita Fuming kicked him on the head and kicked Shengfan aside.

Zhao Dahe said: "Qilang, tell him that if you don't tell the truth, I will tie him to a tree and let this black dog bite him to death." ”

He ..... He said that death was the liberation of a warrior, and that he was going to see his ancestors or something. Shichiro Yoshida covered his nose and barely did the work of translation.

Whining!

A long howl came, and everyone looked under the holy hill, where a raw figure had already appeared at the edge of the woods, and everyone's faces showed a solemn look.

"The enemy has come to the door, it's good to come!" Zhao Dahe had already finished putting on his armor, he was really not afraid at all, and moved his body to get used to the armor on his body.

Under the holy hill, there was a group of people who were pressed by the black pressure, gathered in a chaotic group, all out of order, but at first sight, there were no less than six or seven hundred people, and people kept coming out of the woods.

In the midst of the crowd, there was a tall wooden pole with a huge animal skin painted with colored paint, which seemed to be a black bear, or some other ferocious animal, or of course something legendary, a totem, a symbol of Kalaw.

"Brother Zhao, didn't you say that there are two thousand people, and now it looks like there are only five hundred." Tang Mu said that he was only fifteen years old, but he showed rare boldness, and in the face of so many people, he didn't show any fear at all.

Zhao Dahe nodded slightly, and said to Matsushita Fuming: "Panasonic, this is very bad, you see that they are not moving by the edge of the woods, they must be waiting for the brigade, and if they are all ready to attack, our pressure is too great." ”

Matsushita Tomaki nodded: "Not only that, but the people around us are too afraid, and I'm worried that they don't have the heart to fight." ”

"So ......?" Zhao Dahe grinned and looked at Shengfan who was thrown on the ground, while Matsushita Fuming nodded slightly.

A knife was thrown in front of Shichiro Yoshida, and Tomaki Matsushita said, "Shichiro, kill this Ikuban." ”

"I ...... I don't dare ....... Shichiro Yoshida shrunk his neck in fright and involuntarily retreated.

"It's fucking useless, no eggs." Tang Mu scolded, picked up the knife, skillfully cut Shengfan's throat, grabbed his messy hair, and put the blood on the ground, Na Ataya Shengfan's life passed quickly, and his mouth let out a few whimperes, motionless.

Although Tang Mu is a military household, it is also difficult to survive in Guangzhou, before joining the Oriental Trading Company, he did business with a butcher, he was originally bold, killing people is no different from killing cattle and sheep, and the skill of slaughtering cattle and sheep is used to kill people, and his plain and easy appearance even makes Yoshida Shichiro afraid even more than a ghost, and he is scared and plunged into the house, not daring to come out.

Outside the woods, Kalaw was cutting down trees, and he himself was sharpening his stone knife as he gnawed on a piece of smoked black meat.

Branches can be tied together to resist arrows, and if you put a few skins on them, you will have better defense.

After sharpening the knife, Kalaw let out a low roar twice, and a group of people gathered over, his hands on the eyebrows of one person after another, apparently selecting the vanguard of the attack, and at this moment, a gunshot rang out, and the bullet hit the tree behind Carlaw, and the broken bark fell on the man's head, making Carlaw shake his head.

In previous reconnaissance of the area, the Calough had seen muskets, and they had been in contact with the Spaniards in the chicken coop, and they were no strangers to firearms, so they were afraid, but they were not panicked.

After the gunshots, there were people shouting, and the Atayal people only knew that the people stationed on the opposite side of the sacred hill were Fu Lao Han people from outside the island, but they could not speak Chinese, let alone understand the language on the other side.

However, the man who had released the gun quickly left, and where he had just stood, a sheep appeared, and Kalau was puzzled and ordered the sheep to be brought over.

It was found that the sheep still had a round burden hanging from it, and when it was opened, a head rolled out, and its eyes, mouth and nose were stuck with a kind of grass, and its forehead and nose were painted with lime.

This is some of the methods used by the natives of the island, and after being used, it is said that the dead cannot ascend to heaven, which is a great desecration of the corpse.

Kalaw looked at his head, his eyes widened, and instantly blood-red, he pulled out the stone axe around his waist, and shouted, "Rush forward and kill all the Fu guys." ”

Regardless of waiting for the brigade or picking the striker, everyone's raw soldiers rushed to the holy hill like crazy.

Zhao Dahe saw the crowd swarming from afar, laughed, and said to the people around him: "If you see it, it's like herding sheep, not only does it not even have armor, but it doesn't even have decent clothes, such an enemy, I can fight twenty of them." ”

Everyone laughed, and their hearts settled down a lot.

Zhao Dahe lifted the musket, and behind him was Tang Mu, who carried a few muskets on his back, as Zhao Dahe's secondary shooter. The two of them inspected various posts until they dragged Shichiro Yoshida, who was huddled in the stone house, out and stuffed a knife in his hand.

"Good dog, you've done a great job, go and rest, there's nothing for you here." Matsushita Fuming hugged the black dog, rubbed its oily and slippery hair, and locked it in a firewood house.

Zhao Dahe patted Matsushita Fuming's shoulder and asked, "Panasonic, your bow is very peculiar." ”

Matsushita Tomaki carried a Japanese bow with him, and when he was in the chicken coop, he didn't throw the arquebus even if he threw it.

The Japanese bow is very special, different from the short bow commonly used by the Ming army, the Japanese bow belongs to the long bow bow, but it is also different from the Manchurian long bow and heavy arrows, but more huge, even if it is full, it is higher than the person, and the arrows used are much shorter in comparison.

This is because the Japanese bow is a single bow, while the bow of the Ming Dynasty is a compound bow, and a single bow cannot be lethal if it does not have a huge long bow body.

"I have followed this bow for fifteen years, and I am very familiar with it, and within thirty paces I can shoot a flying sparrow." Matsushita Tomaki said.

Zhao Dahe nodded, pointed to the cypress tree and said, "Then your battle position should be there." ”

"There are too many branches, which affects my use." Tomaki Matsushita shook his head.

"There's a lookout there, and the foliage has been cleared, so you can use your bow and arrows to your heart's content." Zhao Dahe said, he patted the arquebus in his hand: "Originally, I was going to put the best shooter there. ”

Matsushita Tomaki nodded: "Okay, then I'll go there, but my subordinates don't have to go, the armored samurai are the bravest soldiers, they should be armed with a sword and stand in the most dangerous place." ”

Zhao Dahe patted Matsushita Fuming on the shoulder and said, "You are right, they are the most important force under me, and I will let them gain their own honor and merit in the war." ”

Tomaki Matsushita took his bow and arrows and climbed the cypress tree, and the Atayal people rushed closer.

As it turned out, Kalaw was carried away by the rage, and his men rushed for a long time with him on the complicated and rugged mountain road, which did not hesitate to expend their physical strength, which was meaningless, and when they came near, they climbed the platform of the holy hill, but saw the deer and horses all over the ground, and the sharpened wood, and everyone had to stop.

And Zhao Dahe's men have already entered the formation, between the gaps in the stones, above the fence, and on the top of the temple, there are good shooting platforms, because they are trapped, each arquebusier is not only equipped with two guns, but also a rattan card.

This is because the ranged weapons of Ikuban are nothing more than slings, spears, and soft bows, which can be avoided with rattan cards.

Zhao Dahe stood behind a big rock in the northwest corner, smoking a cigarette, which he smoked by rolling tobacco with paper in the example of Li Zhaoji.

This is also the new fashion of the Oriental Trading Company, only people who have reached a certain status can do so, and Zhao Dahe barely touched this threshold.

Tang Mu squatted aside, holding a piece of grass in his mouth, but he was busy working non-stop, and he checked the arquebus again, so that his brother-in-law could quickly use it at a critical time.

"Tang Mu, come, smoke one." Zhao Dahe handed the cigarette in his mouth to Tang Mu.

"Big brother, it's not something I can smoke, right?" Tang Mu said with a smile.

Zhao Dahe said: "If I survive this time, it is a meritorious service, and if the big shopkeeper asks me what reward I want, I will definitely ask him to give you an official position, at least an official who is qualified to smoke this kind of cigarette." ”

"Why?"

Zhao Dahe patted his head: "You kid, you are born to be a soldier and kill people, just on this point, you will definitely have a career in the trading company in the future, and the big shopkeeper will definitely be willing to promote you." ”

"Well, then I'll perform well and strive for meritorious service." Tang Mu grinned, but he didn't really smoke, but put the cigarette behind his ear, which is also the same thing.

At this time, the voice below is getting stronger and stronger.
