Chapter 51: Achieve the Goal in One Fell Swoop
[Recite the URL three times silently. Do you remember it? If not, I will ask again in the next chapter. It is best to share it on Facebook for me]
The moonlight today is very bright, which makes people feel happy to be immersed in it!
"Sir, the tribe of the Hawa people is there." Wang Jiu pointed to the mountains not far away and said softly.
Since the target is here, Qin Hao did not waste words. He waved his right hand suddenly, and the soldiers behind him naturally began to line up and prepare. The Nord guards were in front and the Shuntian soldiers were behind. They put on armor and picked up weapons. After everything was ready, they headed towards the distant hills.
In a blink of an eye, a large group of people appeared on the outskirts of this mountain called Jinguashi Mountain by the locals. When they reached the flat ground at the foot of the mountain, they stopped moving forward, but kept shouting according to Qin Hao's plan, making a huge noise.
Such a big movement naturally could not be hidden from the Hawa people. The patrol on the mountain soon discovered this unknown team and blew the copper whistle to report the news.
The environment of the mountain jungle is changeable, which is extremely suitable for the Hawa people to attack on a small scale, but not suitable for large-scale battle arrays. Therefore, Qin Hao did not plan to launch a sneak attack tonight. He just wanted to let the Hawa people find him, lure them to attack actively, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop on the plain outside the mountain. For this reason, he specially moved the bronze cannons from San Salvador to help.
The door panels and floor boards were quickly stacked on the mud by several Spanish gunners. This approach can reduce the recoil of the artillery and there is no need to worry about getting stuck in the mud.
When the three bronze cannons were in place, the large force of the Hawa people on the mountain was also ready. At the order of the leader, they gathered together like tigers and rushed down the mountain. They moved very quickly. After a few minutes, Qin Hao could already see the sideburns on both sides of their foreheads in his sight.
At this time, the three six-pound cannons also began their performance, pouring shells madly to the opposite side.
A round of three shots stopped the Hawa team for a while, causing a lot of chaos. Soon after the reloading was completed, another round came. These Spanish gunners skillfully controlled the angle of the artillery and projected the shells into the center of the enemy to block their will to advance.
Qin Hao counted them carefully. Of the six shells fired, three hit the core of the Hawa army, two in the first round and one in the second round. In addition, only one shell hit a few people in the corner, causing little damage.
But the power of the three shells that hit the core was witnessed by everyone present.
"Bang!"
When everyone heard a loud noise, they could see the solid bullets rushing out of the muzzle, quickly breaking through the silent deep space, falling into the center of the enemy's team in a graceful curve, crushing a bloody path, looking down on everyone, and no one could stop them until the kinetic energy was completely exhausted.
The first person who was hit would not feel any abnormality and his short life would end, because he could not react at all. Then the second and third ones would come. Until someone could feel that his body was hit, the solid bullet could reflect its true power.
One after another, blood and flesh were blurred, and bodies flew. A cannonball was a bloody plank road. No one within half a meter on either side of it would be spared. It would crush all those who approached it into debris.
Although not many people suffered such pain, the screams at the top of their lungs would resound in every corner of the battlefield.
But even so, the Hawa people did not stop charging. They just stopped charging in formation and turned to a dispersed attack, continuing to move forward. They shouted and roared like beasts, as if they did not know fear and put life and death aside.
"Kill!" The battle was about to break out, and no one could be distracted.
However, the Nord guards at this time had already been fully prepared. Their thick armor and shields were an iron wall on the Hawa people's charge route, and the giant axes in their hands exuded a cold and murderous aura.
The disorderly Havas wanted to break through the tight battle formation formed by the Nord guards with their weak bodies, which was simply a fantasy.
With a few "bangs", their bodies hit the iron shields. As expected, they fell in front of the shields one by one, unable to move forward an inch. This was their limit.
But this gave the Nord guards an opportunity to turn the battlefield into their home court. They all waved their giant axes, which gathered into a cold light in the eyes of the Havas. In an instant, the Havas' heads were separated from their bodies, allowing them to see the iron shields and their own bodies on the opposite side before losing consciousness, and know the gap between the two sides.
The Shuntian death warriors behind were not idle for long. When the hands of the Nord guards in front were numb, they would step forward to take over, repeating the same actions as before, and killing with the same excitement.
There were more and more headless bodies on the battlefield, and they piled up into a small hill. In order to prevent the Hawa people from using the bodies as tools to cross the shield wall, Qin Hao commanded the cavalry soldiers to fight and retreat, constantly reducing their numbers.
All the soldiers had only one belief in their hearts, which was to kill the enemy in front of them!
Kill! Kill! Kill again! Until they all fell down.
The battle lasted for about half an hour before it was over. There were countless bodies lying on the ground, but no one had the mind or time to think about this insignificant problem on the battlefield.
The blood had long soaked the earth and gathered into a trickle. Qin Hao could easily smell the bloody smell in the air.
This scene was as creepy as the blood river in hell!
These Hawa people didn't wake up until the end and began to retreat consciously, but they couldn't run at all, nor could they run fast. After the previous energy passed, they became extremely tired and their hands and feet were weak.
They began to regret it!
He ran away with all his strength into the jungle behind him, murmuring constantly: "It's all because of it that I'm like this."
Qin Hao had very sharp ears and heard what they said, but he also planned to leave a few people alive to ask. The Hawa people were so brave and not afraid of death that they were mentally disturbed. You could tell by going to their camp and there was no need to waste time here.
Looking at the backs of these fleeing people, Qin Hao knew that his arrangement was about to take effect.
Just when they were ecstatically thinking that they could go back, several "Bang! Bang! Bang!" sounds of firecrackers suddenly came from the woods they had just rushed out of. They looked at the sky in horror, and then their pupils began to dilate. They never expected that their results would be like this. .
This was Qin Hao's back-up plan. He asked the French gunmen to get behind the Hawa people while they were charging. If Qin Hao's side went well, their mission was to intercept and kill the fleeing people. If not, they would act as a force. A surprise soldier, changing the situation of the battle.
Fortunately, the situation of the battle was unbelievably good, and their mission was surprisingly simple.
When the Hawa people fled, their number was less than one-thirtieth of what they were before the war, only about twenty people. After a few rounds of gunfire, they were sent to meet God, and no one was left behind.
But after the last person fell, no sound could be heard on the entire battlefield except for the white smoke that had not dissipated, and the world became silent.
"Clean the battlefield!" Qin Hao shouted, making this place become a human world again.
Although he did not personally participate in this battle, Qin Hao, who was watching from the sidelines, was also excited. The bravery of the soldiers was invincible. Even the Hawa people, who were not afraid of death, could not waver them in the slightest.
They are like the god of death in hell and the guardian in heaven, protecting on one side and killing on the other. They are the most contradictory combination, making their friends feel at ease and making their enemies terrified.
To finish all his work in one battle, this is what Qin Hao wants to say most now, and it is also the sentence that makes him happiest.
Walking on the muddy and bloody road, Qin Hao didn't feel anything unusual at all. He just said: "It depends on Amorim later."
Before this operation, Qin Hao and Amorim had discussed it, and they fought separately. The troops were divided into two groups. Qin Hao led a large force to lure in front, while Amorim led a small force to directly attack the Hawa people. Lao Lao, they were all taken away in one pot, and no one was allowed to escape.
When Qin Hao knew that these Hawa people were Fusang people, he had a feeling that they could not be dealt with. When he found out that they would actually kill other ethnic groups, his emotions directly escalated to anger. He felt that there should not be any people on Taiwan Island. This group of people.
Qin Hao wants to eliminate them all, leaving no one behind, just like they did before, tit for tat, blood debt will be repaid with blood.
With such emotions, Qin Hao ordered the troops to temporarily stop cleaning the battlefield and go directly up the mountain. Just halfway up the mountain, Qin Hao met Amorim and his party who were hurriedly going down the mountain.
"Why did you go down the mountain?" Qin Hao asked doubtfully.
He asked Wang Jiu to take Amorim around through the back mountain, so there was no way he would get lost.
"Except for some thatched huts, there is no one to be seen on the mountain." Amorim replied.
"It seems they came out in full force!"
"No, how is this possible?" Qin Hao shouted, "Isn't there even a single old and young person on the mountain? Where are their wives and children?"
"No, there is nothing except dry food, weapons, and thatched huts, and there is not a single person in sight."
"What's going on?" Qin Hao's scalp was numb. How could there be a tribe without a single woman or child.
"Wait a minute." Qin Hao seemed to have thought of something and said slowly, "Unless they are not a tribe at all."
At first, when Qin Hao learned that these Hawa people were Fusang people, he was just surprised and didn't feel anything. After all, the exchanges between Fusang people and Taiwanese people did not take place in a day or two.
As early as the Jiajing period, they began to live in Taiwan on a large scale. At that time, the Japanese invasion was serious, and many ronin went to the coast of Ming Dynasty to plunder and make a living. The looted property needed a place to store, but they could not return to their homeland. These ronin were also unsettled elements in the territory, and the Japanese daimyo We take care of them a lot.
So they stationed themselves between Japan and the islands in the Ming Dynasty. After that, due to the rise of Qi Jiguang, the robbery business failed, so they went to Taiwan to retire.
After that, probably during the chaos of the Warring States Period in Japan, many people fled and settled on Taiwan to escape the war. In addition, the exchanges in the Age of Navigation also brought some Fuso people to Taiwan, which is completely normal.
But this group of people obviously didn’t come here like that!
"Maybe you should ask this guy." Amorim asked the soldier to drag someone over. "Maybe he knows something."
Qin Hao looked at the man who was dragged out, with a confused look on his face, and asked, "Didn't you meet no one on the mountain?"
Amorim explained: "We didn't meet him on the mountain, but we secretly went up the mountain and caught him halfway up the mountain. When we met him, he was more nervous than us. He hesitated and didn't speak. In order not to Delaying the plan, I arrested him first. Although this guy didn't speak, I knew he was a Dutchman."
"Dutch, are you sure?"
"I am sure."
