Take the arsenal to Da Ming

Chapter 332 Airborne

The umbrellas were like white clouds, competing to bloom in the sky, very dazzling. This scene stunned everyone in Batavia City. They watched all this in shock, as if time had frozen.

"There are people down there, there are people..." Someone finally spoke out. In fact, many people saw it, but they were too stunned to speak. Someone could really fly into the sky, and even fall from the sky.

"God's soldiers descended from the sky, god's soldiers descended from the sky, run away..." Someone thought of something and yelled in horror.

Immediately, many people came to their senses, as if the pot had exploded, and fled in all directions in horror.

"Oh, my God." The general and soldiers of the Netherlands who were guarding the bastion seemed to be numb. They couldn't believe that the Ming army would fight in this way.

But there are still people who force themselves to be sane, such as Governor of Batavia Karel Rainiers.

"They will land in the city, quickly send someone to destroy them for me, quickly..."

Karel Rainiers knew very well that once the city of Batavia was breached from the inside, it would be useless no matter how strong the city was. The Ming army that was about to land in the city was a greater threat than the 1-odd army outside. .

However, the airborne operation was originally aimed at a surprise attack. The Ming army did not even need a minute from the moment of parachuting to landing. How did they rush to the Ming army's airborne location in such a short period of time?

The airborne location of the Ming army was selected by the scouts long ago. It was in an empty place in the center of the city. Even if the nearest Dutch army arrived there, it would take at least ten minutes.

When the Dutch began to mobilize troops, Ming troops had already landed one after another. They quickly unfastened their parachutes, first organized their equipment, and then some were in charge of guarding, while others gathered their comrades.

Seeing Ming troops descending from the sky like divine soldiers one by one, the residents of the surrounding Batavia city all ran away in panic.

Although the conditions for this airborne landing were good in all aspects, it was still inevitable that some soldiers would deviate from the direction and some people were injured because of this, but most of them successfully completed the mission.

A squad of soldiers was left to take care of the wounded and rescue the trapped comrades. The rest of the group of more than [-] gathered together and quickly attacked in the direction of the north city of Batavia City. They ran into a group sent The Dutch army came out to encircle the airborne troops of the Ming army.

Because it was dispatched in a hurry, the number of this Dutch army was not as large as that of the airborne Ming army, with less than 500 people.

The two sides saw from a distance on the spacious street that the Ming army rushed forward without hesitation, while the Dutch seemed a little hesitant, just staying in place and waiting for the Ming army to charge.

But they didn't seem to expect that the Ming army had prepared at least ten submachine guns for this surprise attack.

Seeing that the enemy did not meet up immediately, but was organizing the formation and waiting for his own attack. Under the command of the commander, the six submachine gunners were ready at the first time and hid in the attacking team.

At a distance of about fifty feet from the enemy, six people suddenly rushed out of the team and lined up, raised their submachine guns and began to shoot.

"Bang bang bang..." The Dutch soldiers who were still trembling and waiting for the Ming army to approach before firing suddenly screamed and fell down, and the formation that had just been organized was also in chaos.

"Rush..." With an order, three rows of Ming army soldiers took advantage of this opportunity to rush forward quickly, closing the distance to less than [-] feet, and then quickly formed a team.

"Bang bang bang..." The already chaotic Dutch soldiers fired at random. There was no order at all, and they fought on their own. Many people saw the Ming army rushing, and they were already retreating.

Although there were casualties in the Ming army, the impact was very small. The three rows of soldiers rushing forward quickly formed a three-row formation. The first row squatted, the second row squatted, and the third row stood upright.

"Shua, Shua, Shua..." The three rows of soldiers immediately raised their guns.

"Fire..."

"Bang..." The dense bullets flew out, and the Dutch soldiers who were already out of formation fell down again.

"Ah, run away, run away..." The few remaining soldiers were terrified and fled in the direction they came, no longer caring about blocking them. The fighting power of the Ming army was much more terrifying than they had imagined. Like they beat the local natives.

"Chong..." With an order, the Manzhou soldiers first put away their muskets, took out their bows and arrows, and rushed out.

They moved swiftly and quickly closed the distance between them and the Dutch soldiers. Although these Dutch soldiers were also fleeing, their speed was slower than that of the Manchurian soldiers.

"Swish, swish..." Bows and arrows were shot out, and one by one Dutch soldiers fell down screaming. Seeing that the possibility of escape was getting smaller and smaller, some people were so frightened that they threw their weapons on the ground and knelt down. On the ground begging for mercy.

In this way, the nearly 500 people dispatched by Karel Raynierz in a hurry were defeated not long after the battle with the Ming army, and the few remaining soldiers brought the Ming army directly to Beicheng. Nilz was shocked, and quickly dispatched troops from Beicheng to prepare for the attack.

But at this time, the total strength of Beicheng was not as large as that of the Ming army, but it only had some geographical advantages.

"Block them, stop them, the reinforcements are coming." Karel Reinierz shouted anxiously. The reinforcements he said were the defenders in several other directions.

The Ming army didn't care so much, and quickly launched an attack on the bastion guarded by the defenders.

"Bang bang bang..." The submachine guns suppressed the defenders on the top of the city. After suffering a lot of casualties, the Dutch were so frightened that they huddled in the bastion, not daring to stick their heads out.

A part of the Ming army immediately started to climb up one of the bastions from the steps. If any Dutchman dared to stand up and fight back, there would be musketeers and archers below the city to suppress fire.

Although the Dutch worked very hard, they still failed to stop the Ming army at the city.

The Ming army who had just boarded the bastion, three Han soldiers stepped forward immediately. They leaned against the wall, took out a grenade from their waists, unscrewed the cover, and threw it out with a pull of the match.

Three explosions of "Boom, Boom, Boom" came out.

"Kill..." After shouting loudly, the Ming army rushed out like a hungry wolf, killing or knocking down all the Dutch soldiers they saw. The Dutch retreated steadily, and the Ming army took advantage of the situation. Take this bastion down.

Karel Reinierz yelled and organized a counterattack, trying to take back the bastion, but at this time the Dutch soldiers were terrified, who were the opponents of the wolf-like Ming army, they could only watch helplessly He watched the Ming army open the gate of the bastion.

"Swish, whoosh, whoosh..." several signal flares were launched into the air, conveying information to the Ming army outside that they could attack the city.

After a while, the army that had already been prepared outside the city rushed towards the city fiercely like a pack of wolves.

But even so, the airborne troops of the Ming army in the city were not satisfied, and quickly attacked the next bastion, especially the place where the artillery was installed. They wanted to capture or destroy these places to reduce the casualties of comrades outside the city .
