The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 93 The Counterattack Begins

Zhou Tianxu got Zhu Hongyu's recovery, and left the camp of the Liberation Army again the next day, went into the mountains to the crocodile tribe, and negotiated an alliance with Sanchez.

"Sino-Iranian Covenant of Friendship and Mutual Assistance"

First: This treaty is based on the principle of mutual assistance and voluntary signing.

Second: This treaty will take effect immediately, and it will be ratified every three years to revise relevant unreasonable treaties or decide whether to renew them.

"..."

Then there are the specific terms of the covenant.

Including marriage, sending overseas students, trade preferences and other aspects.

……

In the camp of the Restoration Army, under the condemnation of his own heart, Zhu Hongyu found Li Lingxiu and confessed the marriage, and apologized to her.

"Lingxiu, the marriage is imperative!"

"Without the help of the Iglots, even if we can win this battle, we will not be able to wipe out the main force of the Spaniards."

"The Liberation Army will not be able to go out of the mountains and grow stronger!"

"But I swear, my first wife will only be you, and Sanchez's daughter can only be a concubine after marrying!"

However, what surprised Zhu Hongyu was that Li Lingxiu didn't care about it.

"Brother Hongyu, I just want to stay by your side and take care of you, I don't dare to extravagantly ask for fame."

"I don't care who you marry or how many you marry, I don't need a status, as long as I stay by your side!"

Li Lingxiu grew up in this era, and she has long been used to the three wives and four concubines of men in this era.

Zhu Hongyu felt a little uneasy in her conscience because of her scum, but she didn't take it seriously, instead she thought it was normal.

It was Zhu Hongyu who deliberately came to explain to her, which surprised her and made her feel as sweet as eating honey.

Brother Hongyu still cares about himself, otherwise how could he deliberately explain to himself!
Zhu Hongyu hugged Li Lingxiu in his arms, exerting strength with his arms, as if he wanted to rub the beauty in his arms into his body.

He promised.

"After this busy period, I will marry you in!"

As he said that, he wanted to taste the rouge on Li Lingxiu's mouth, but Li Lingxiu pushed him away with a blushing face.

"Brother Hongyu, don't be like this, we are not married yet, hugging is already very rude, we can't be more rude!"

The corner of Zhu Hongyu's mouth twitched. Girls in this era are good at everything, but they are too conservative.

Even if he and Li Lingxiu were childhood sweethearts who grew up together, the closest thing they ever did was just hugging each other just now, that's all.

……

Two days later in the morning, it was just dawn.

The sun raised its head slightly, and the Liberation Army began to bury their pots and cook food, preparing to take the initiative to attack.

The soldiers were chomping on food and accumulating energy to fight. Zhu Hongyu called a meeting of the generals of the recovery army to discuss the strategy.

Zhu Hongyu held the pancake in one hand, chewed and swallowed it, and held the baton in the other hand, gesticulating on the sand table.

"It's settled like this first!"

"The battle plan is finalized. First attack the enemy on the side of the river valley. After defeating the enemy, immediately turn to attack the enemy upstream."

"When two of the three sides are surrounded by our recovery army, Spain will never dare to stay in the downstream direction."

"And with artillery, they can't withdraw!"

"When the Spaniards abandon their artillery and evacuate, then their threat to our army will be minimized. Our army must quickly seize their artillery positions, and then cooperate with the Iglots of the crocodile tribe to keep all the Spaniards in the mountains. .”

"Brothers, this battle is about the life and death of our recovery army, we must win it all!"

The crowd agreed in unison.

"promise!"

……

In the 14th year of the Yongli calendar of the Ming Dynasty, on October 1660th of [-] in the Western calendar, it was sunny!

In several Spanish attacks, the Liberation Army, which had always relied on fortifications for passive defense, took the initiative.

Except for the garrisons in the upper and lower bastions, the recovery army was out of the best.

At the beginning of the morning of October [-]th, the Restoration Army came out of the camp and advanced in formation towards the more than [-] Spaniards who had lined up on the side of the river valley.

The Liberation Army was neatly arrayed up and down, the musketeers wore breastplates and held muskets, and the sword and shield soldiers held shields, ready to fight.

Two quarters of an hour later, the two sides joined forces.

As the distance between the two sides got closer, the Liberation Army clenched their muskets tightly.

The Spaniard's response was as expected, and the Spanish musketeers quickly rearranged their array and held the formation behind.

The aborigines were driven ahead, screaming and rushing towards the formation of the recovery army!
The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and the soldiers of the Restoration Army in the front row could already see the hideous and twisted faces of the natives on the opposite side.

The grassroots officers kept estimating the distance between the two sides!
"The enemy is approaching two hundred paces, the musketeers raise their guns and prepare!"

"The enemy is 150 steps closer!"

"The enemy is approaching a hundred steps!"

"The enemy is [-] steps away, everyone is there, three rows of bursts, open fire!"

"..."

Snapped!clap clap!clap clap clap!

In just an instant, more than 100 guns fired together.

The sound of musket shooting resounded throughout the valley, gunpowder smoke and flames spewed out from the barrel, and the lead bullets formed a dense barrage.

In an instant, a large piece of the natives on the opposite side fell down!

However, before they could take a breath, the salvo from the second row started.

Snapped!clap clap!clap clap clap!

After the neat volley of gunfire, apart from the gunpowder smoke pervading the battlefield, there were the miserable howls of the natives.

"Third salvo, fire!"

clap clap!clap clap clap!

After the Liberation Army fired three rows of bursts, the first row that was fired first was still loading for the second round, and the natives collapsed.

Drop your weapon and run away!
The neat row of guns of the Restoration Army reminded them of the painful memories of being slaughtered wantonly like pigs, dogs and animals when they were not allowed to advance an inch under the bastion of the Restoration Army.

At the moment when the memory appeared, the emotion that surged up was not hatred, but fear from the heart!
Everyone's calves were shaking!

I don't know who started it first, dropped the weapon in his hand, turned around and ran.

Others followed suit, and in an instant, nearly two thousand natives collapsed.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

"..."

Amidst the loud shouts of killing, the artillery array of the Liberation Army moved forward.

The two hundred Spanish musketeers did not expect the natives to collapse so quickly, and panicked, organized resistance hastily.

At a distance of 70 meters, the two sides fired three rounds of musket fire, each with casualties.

However, the Liberation Army had breastplate defenses, and the casualties were much less than that of the Spaniards.

The Spaniards struggled to support, although they suffered heavy losses, they did not collapse.

However, in the subsequent neat bayonet charge of the Liberation Army, the two hundred Spanish musketeers suffered a crushing defeat and were almost wiped out.

Only a handful of 30 people became prisoners!

After winning this battlefield, except for the wounded who were sent back to the camp for treatment, the rest did not rest up, and went directly to the bastion in the upper reaches of the river valley.

……

At this time, the Spaniards in the upper and lower reaches of the valley received news that the army in the middle of the valley was being attacked.

However, due to the barriers of the mountains and forests, the reinforcements could not get through for a while.

In order to relieve the pressure of more than 2000 people in the middle of the valley, they could only attack the two bastions separately.

The Black Lizard led the Iglots and charged several times, but they were all repelled without exception amidst bursts of gunfire, leaving corpses all over the ground.

……

Thanks to the two book friends "Tong Chi Kui" and "Melancholy de Bitter Coffee" for their monthly tickets.

Still looking for support!
From today onwards, I will continue to pay more. At present, it seems that I still owe three more. The author should pay it back as soon as possible.
