Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 748 Hunting
"Crack, click..." There was a sound of breaking when stepping on a branch. If you accidentally stepped on a hollow covered by a dead branch, you might sprain your ankle.

However, the Dutch leader, West, didn't care. He just asked the native leader, Ferdinandi, "How long are those wise people hiding?"

When he said this, he turned his head and looked back, and he could no longer see the city of Manila.It is estimated that it is impossible to go back to the city today, and I will spend the night in this desolate mountain forest.

However, he immediately remembered that there were a lot of remnants of Ming people hiding here, and it would not be too bad to sleep on the silver dollar and hug those Ming women, so he didn't care about staying in the mountains overnight.

"If you go back to Your Excellency, it is estimated that we will arrive at another hill." Ferdinandi smiled and pointed to the front and said, "My people, after which hill, there will be no news."

West listened, looked up, and then ordered: "Send some people to drive along the mountain ridge, no matter where the Ming people are hiding, drive them to the seaside on the other side of the mountain. Be quick, it's dark to be completed next."

In this forest, his musketeers can't play much advantage.But if they reach the seaside with unobstructed view, no matter how many smart people are left, they can be shot and killed.

Upon hearing this, Ferdinandi hurriedly accepted the order respectfully, and then turned around and began to yell.

The natives were a little reluctant when they heard the order.

Now they still have a way to go, but it is already difficult to walk, and it will be even more difficult to climb to the ridge. No one wants to, but there is no way.

So, they walked slowly, although they were slow, they were also climbing up.

"Ah..." A scream sounded, especially harsh in this mountain forest.

When everyone heard the sound and looked around, they saw a native fell on his back, with an arrow stuck in his chest.

"There is someone in front!" Immediately, a native yelled.

However, what greeted him was another arrow that shot towards him with a "whoosh" sound.But he saw it and quickly dodged, but in the end it just shot him in the arm.

"Ming people, it's Ming people!" Seeing this, many aborigines were not only not afraid, but became excited, and began to chase after them regardless of the danger.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

From time to time, bows and arrows were shot from the forest, shooting down several natives in a row.However, these natives were still not afraid, at most they used their crude shields to block the front and chased after them.

Seeing this, Ferdinandi was also overjoyed, and quickly said to West: "Your Excellency, those smart people can't hide at last!"

This is a good sign!Of course West was also happy. Seeing the prey, he waved his hand and shouted loudly: "Hurry up, hurry up..."

So, Ferdinandi led the natives, regardless of whether the mountain forest was difficult or not, they chased forward.And West, with his two hundred or so men, was behind, stepping on the road stepped by the natives in front, and hurried forward.

It was as if they were hunting leisurely, and the natives were their hounds, helping them chase their prey.

In this mountain forest, the sound of branches snapping and the aborigines' creaking sound suddenly resounded.But no one noticed that there was such a big movement. It stands to reason that there should be some birds in the forest, and there was no movement.

Chasing all the way, more than [-] aborigines, one after another, "嗤嗤", with joy, excitement, and pride.It's like the joy that the harvest is just around the corner.

However, suddenly, there was a scream of "ahhhhhh" from the natives chasing at the front.At the same time, there was the sound of turning over and falling in the forest.

Ferdinandi was also chasing excitedly, when he suddenly heard that something was wrong, he quickly looked up.However, the obstruction of the trees blocked his vision, making it difficult to see the situation ahead.

But he couldn't see clearly, and it didn't prevent him from making a judgment, and he immediately shouted: "Those wise people are dying, what are you afraid of, go for me!"

Hearing this, the subordinates around him hurriedly agreed loudly, just to embolden themselves, and then wanted to speed up and rush up.

However, before they rushed over, they saw the accomplices in front running backwards like crazy, regardless of thorns or branches, just trying to escape backwards at the fastest speed, rolling and climbing, it was really spectacular.

This time, Ferdinandi was dumbfounded.what happened?How come it feels like they met a tiger, and it's not just a tiger, it's a group of tigers!

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw many of the fleeing accomplices yelled "ah" and fell to the ground and convulsed.At this moment, he could see clearly that the backs of those felled comrades were all pierced with arrows.

"Huh..." Ferdinandi gasped involuntarily. How many smart people are hiding here? How could there be so many people who can shoot arrows?

Subconsciously looking up, this time, he finally saw something through the gaps in the trees: I saw a lot of people in red clothes coming here, in a leisurely manner.Among them, some held bows and arrows and continued to shoot arrows; others held sword shields and stood in front of the archers; there were also spearmen, those who were injured and fell to the ground...

armor? !
Seeing this clearly, Ferdinandi took a breath, this... is this the army?
Even if he is the chief of a large tribe on Luzon Island, he doesn't have much armor in his hands.This kind of thing can only be equipped by elite soldiers who are more powerful than him.

Could it be... Could it be the Ming army?Ferdinandi had never seen the Ming army, but no matter what, he had always heard about what the Ming army looked like, and the recent situation was that the Ming army was coming to attack Luzon, so he naturally made an association.

Once he came to this conclusion, he didn't care about why the Ming army appeared in the mountains. He was so frightened that he turned around and ran away. The speed was worthy of a chief.

At the same time, the Dutch who were following them slowly also heard the noise coming from the front and felt the panic screams of the natives.

However, this did not make them nervous all at once.Instead, they were still laughing and joking. The only thing that changed was that many people stopped and looked at the front and spoke.

"These natives are so cowardly. They were scared to death by just a few Ming people!"

"This is actually expected. Don't look at those Ming people in Batavia who are so submissive, but I heard that the Ming people used to dominate Nanyang."

"I've also heard that after the Ming pirates fled to Nanyang, they almost wiped out the Spaniards."

"So, I heard that when the Spaniards slaughtered the Ming people for the first time, they bought the ironware from the Ming people at a high price before they dared to attack the Ming people."

"That's right. We haven't fought the Ming Kingdom, so we can only stay here in Nanyang. Otherwise, I heard that the Ming Kingdom is very prosperous, with countless wealth..."

"..."

These Dutch colonists, not only did not help the natives who were their accomplices, but laughed at the natives, and envied the wealth of the great empire in the Far East.

Their leader, West, was no exception. He just looked at the natives in front of him with disdain and turned around to run away.

But soon, when he saw not one or two fleeing natives appearing in his field of vision, but all the natives appearing in his field of vision were fleeing backward with all their strength, the smile on his face It slowly solidified, and felt something was wrong.

"Be on guard, be on guard..." West yelled, widening his eyes to observe the movement ahead.

To be honest, he was a little puzzled.

There are at least three hundred of those natives, but how many Ming people are left?It's impossible to surpass these natives, even if there are more, the young and strong will definitely not surpass them!What are these natives doing to eat, to be so frightened?
Just thinking about it like this, those natives are getting closer to the Dutch.All of them were yelling, but because of the language, they couldn't speak clearly.However, the panic on their faces is contagious.

When the Dutch saw this, they finally stopped smiling, and each of them became nervous. They quickly clenched the flintlock guns in their hands, trying to cope with the possible danger.

However, those natives who fled desperately escaped one by one. They didn't care at all. After a while, they rushed to the Dutch side and smashed their uneven formation into pieces. , Even many Dutch people were overwhelmed by those natives.

West was also nervous. He happened to see Ferdinandi who was running backwards, and asked loudly what was going on.

As Fednandi ran, he shouted: "Run, Ming Army, the Ming Army is coming, run quickly..."

He can speak Spanish, but it's not standard, and the tone he shouted in a panic is even more outrageous.

This made West wonder for a while, and then he was suddenly surprised, Ming Jun?

He got this high probability result, but he couldn't figure it out, how could there be a Ming army on this mountain?Even if the Ming army came, wouldn't they attack Manila first?
He subconsciously looked up and saw no sign of Ming Jun yet.However, the arrows flying out of the gaps in the woods kept shooting the fleeing natives to the ground, clearly sending a very dangerous signal.

Seeing this, West was finally frightened. He didn't know how many Ming troops were chasing after him, and he turned around immediately. Just when he was about to order to retreat, he felt his cheek hurt and couldn't speak at all, so he fell down. went to the ground.

On his face, an arrow hit his cheek, and the arrow was exposed on the other side.

Not only him, but also many Dutchmen, all of them were hit by arrows and fell to the ground one after another.

Those who were not hit by the arrow turned around in surprise and looked towards the direction of the ridge, and saw countless red spots indistinctly between the gaps in the trees.

"Blah blah blah..."

The Dutch instinctively fought back. However, they were actually surrounded by the Ming army. What's the use of dying?

　Yesterday I was thinking about getting up early today and finishing two chapters before lunch in one go, but...
