Reborn Ming Dynasty as Emperor

Chapter 427 Retaliation
Like Cirebon, Pumijaya's defenders did not rely on the strength of the city and the impassability of the moat.

In fact, for a country like Java, it didn't have enough national strength to build a strong city like Ming Dynasty, but what he relied on was the tropical jungle with tall trees and deep forests outside the city and the native army hidden in it.

But now, the native troops of these Javanese countries have met the Fourth Army, which is also good at jungle warfare, and have lost their own geographical advantages.

The first round of bombardment by the Fourth Army of the Praetorian Guards directly destroyed the stone walls of Pumijiaya. It was all the Ming army and the neat and solemn military appearance, which made them not have enough courage to resist the Fourth Army of the Imperial Guard.

But in this way, Lu Xiangyu, the commander-in-chief of the Fourth Army of the Imperial Guard, was in a difficult situation.

Because the order given to him by Zhu Youxiao is to kill and injure the aborigines of Java as much as possible, at least to make the population structure of aborigines and Han people directly [-]:[-]. According to the calculation of the Ministry of War, Lu Xiangyu's Fourth Army must Three-quarters of the indigenous population died in the war against Java!

But now the entire Pumi Gaya indigenous soldiers and civilians surrendered directly without any resistance, which made it impossible for the Fourth Army to kill and injure a large number of these indigenous soldiers and civilians through war.

"I'm so cowardly, rushing over and being shot to death by Lao Tzu is better than staying in the city and waiting for Lao Tzu's army to stab me to death! Where is the cruelty of these guys slaughtering my fellow Han people?"

As Lu Xiangyu spoke, he ordered: "Order the entire army. The purpose of this operation is to wipe out the enemy's vital forces, expand the living space of our Ming people, and avenge the Han compatriots who died tragically at the hands of barbarians. Therefore, this time you can ignore military discipline. After entering the city, no matter how old or young, they will be shot to death!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers of the Fourth Army responded in unison. Although there was nothing unusual on the surface, most of them were still a little nervous.

Although many of them have killed people before, this is the first time that this kind of direct massacre of aborigines has occurred, so there are still psychological barriers for them.

But after entering the city, under the leadership of Lu Xiangyu and other officers, many officers and soldiers gradually entered a state of madness. At this time, the natives in the city were chased and suppressed like chickens and ducks in front of them.

Perhaps these aborigines never thought that they would have today, and would be killed by the Han people like pigs and dogs.

In short, as soon as the Fourth Army of the Praetorian Guards entered the city of Pumijiaya, they changed into two appearances. The first appearance showed that they were like cold-blooded killers and devils in front of the indigenous residents, and they were merciless in their attacks.

However, according to Lu Xiangyu's request, the atrocities committed by the Fourth Army of the Imperial Guard were just revenge and competition for living space, so just depriving you of your life is not an insult to Li's personality.

As a result, there were no incidents of rape and massacres, but even so, these aborigines were shocked. They began to run around and kneel down to beg for mercy, but very few of them resisted desperately.

However, the Fourth Army of the Imperial Guard showed a different look in front of the Han people in the city, and as long as you are wearing a Han Confucian gown or other obvious signs of the Han people such as crown hair, even if there are Chinese characters in front of the door or you can speak a few words of Ming Dynasty You will survive, and even the Fourth Praetorian Guard will give you the property recaptured from the native army.

Because the Fourth Army of the Imperial Guard was marching in a hurry this time, there was no way to bring too much luggage, so I was happy to do a military and civilian fish-and-water situation.

Some indigenous residents of Pumijiaya City are also cunning, and soon found that as long as they have some Han elements, they will not be retaliated against, so many people began to take off their clothes and put on long gowns, and those who did not have long gowns tied up their hair and put a wooden stick across it. Chai, no matter how bad it is, hang a Chinese character "Ming" in front of the door.

They escaped a catastrophe in this way, but they will still be found out in the future and directly serve as the remaining quarter of the data, and their fate is only to be second-class citizens and work in lowly jobs.

Although at least retaliation was launched against most of the indigenous soldiers and civilians in the city, after two days, Pumijiaya still became a river of blood, and the crows outside Pumijiaya have been circling for several months and refused to disperse.

And because of this, the behavior of the Fourth Army was also spread to other parts of Java. Before the Janissaries arrived, the indigenous soldiers and civilians in some places were frightened and fled further east.

Even Surabaye, the capital of Java, became panicked at this time, and these indigenous dignitaries who used to dominate the Han people were even more restless, and they no longer had the arrogance they had at the beginning, because the king dared to fight against the Ming Dynasty. Shout out to declare war.

At this moment, they were very annoyed at why the king had offended Daming, causing him to send such a vicious team.

In fact, the king of Java was also very depressed at this time. He didn't expect the situation to be so serious, and he didn't expect his army to be so weak.

But unwilling to give up his ruling interests, he immediately mobilized more troops to defend the capital and nearby key points.

As a result, he now has no way to retaliate against the Han people in other areas, and the Han people in other areas have become more bloody than before when they learned that the Han army has appeared. Some Han people's settlements began to spontaneously organize and arm Forces attack the gathering areas of the aborigines and take advantage of this to plunder the wealth and resources of these aborigines.

The armed forces spontaneously organized by these Han people are even more brutal than the Fourth Army of the Imperial Guards. They already have conflicts of hatred and interest competition with these indigenous soldiers and civilians, so their revenge is even more vicious, and various vicious incidents such as torture and killing continue. .

For a time, the entire country of Java fell into a state of chaos.

On the one hand, the Fourth Corps of the Praetorian Guards was marching straight towards his capital.

On the one hand, the South China Sea Fleet of the Ming Navy is conquering important coastal towns along the coastline and gradually blocking his overseas economic sources.

On the one hand, almost all the Han people in various places rebelled, and incidents of direct executions of officials and indigenous powerful Han people in many areas occurred frequently.

The current King of Java has been unable to suppress the vicious incidents in the local area, and even has no way to deal with the Ming Navy attacking along the coastline. He can only concentrate the last army in the capital area, resisting the pressing force of the Fourth Army of the Imperial Guard.

At this time, the Fourth Army of the Imperial Guard had already advanced to Blitar, which was the third and last gate of Surabaya, and one of the few strong cities.

The king of Java even gathered [-] elites here. The so-called elites are more daring than the previous indigenous army, but they are still nothing but local chickens and dogs in front of the imperial guards.

These so-called native elites were not afraid of death under the stimulation of national hatred and high rewards from the king.

However, in this way, it was in Lu Xiangyu's arms. He felt that letting the Fourth Army make another meat grinder would achieve the reputation of these indigenous troops who died in battle.
