Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 652 Bless
On the first night of the war, although it was a dead night, it sounded like there was only the movement of the sea wind and waves, but in fact, it was not like that.

There were torches on the top of the city, and the Dutch defenders all stared wide-eyed, watching every movement outside the city very vigilantly.Although the light from the torches couldn't shine very far, they were still trying to see everything outside the castle.

Needless to say, there is indeed a Ming army ambushing in the place where the castle fire did not shine.Zeng Ying's two generals, Li Ding and Yu Chong, selected the elite of the army, thinking to see if they could win this crucial commanding height by night attack.

As long as this Ukrecht Fort Ukrecht Fort is taken down, Zeelandia City will be just around the corner.If the sneak attack is successful, there is no need to build fortifications for a protracted siege.

No matter what, it is always necessary to try it, in case the sneak attack succeeds!

The moon in the sky is only a semicircle, and the moonlight shining on the earth is not particularly bright, and it is hard to see clearly if you are far away.

However, Li Ding and the others were ambushing in the dark, and they could clearly see the Dutch on the castle patrolling past from time to time.Needless to say, the Dutch Sentinels must have been hiding in the shadows.It was almost midnight, but there was still no sign of the Dutch sentry relaxing.

According to experience, both Li Ding and Yu Chong felt that there was no chance.

After waiting patiently for a while, the two still didn't get the chance, so they got together and discussed in a low voice, whether they had to withdraw their troops and go back?

Because there is a military order, there is no need to attack by force to increase casualties. For these Western barbarians from the east, the safest method is to siege them.

But suddenly, Li Ding seemed to have heard something, and immediately whispered to Yu Chong: "Listen, there seems to be something?"

At the same time, Yu Chong also heard the voice, and couldn't help but said in surprise: "Why is there such a noise? It doesn't make sense! No, there are screams!"

When the two were about to confirm the situation, they suddenly heard a crisp gunshot: "Boom!"

Afterwards, the movement in the castle became more and more loud, and the Dutch sentries on the top of the castle could still be seen, all looking into the castle instead of guarding the outside of the castle.

Seeing this, Yu Chong immediately thought of something, suppressed the surprise in his heart, and quickly said to Li Ding: "The people who came here during the day must be rebelling, right?"

When the Dutch discovered the fleet, the people on board could also see what was happening on the shore.Through the binoculars, Yu Chong and others have long observed that the Dutch are driving the strong men to this side.Therefore, when I thought of this situation, I immediately thought of it.

However, Li Ding was still a little vigilant, guessing in a low voice: "Could this be a trap?"

While speaking, the noise inside the castle became louder and louder, and the gunshots began to ring out one after another.

After hearing this, Yu Chong said decisively: "Impossible, the noise at night is the easiest way to bomb the camp. And listening to this movement, the city is definitely in chaos. This is a rare opportunity. Let's do it!"

After hearing this, Li Ding didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately nodded and said, "It's done!"

The two reached an agreement, and immediately led their men, rushed out from the ambush, and rushed to Fort Ukrecht.

Of course, they are all wearing night clothes. If you don't look carefully in the dark, it is not easy to find.

However, the number of people is a bit too much. Once it moves, as long as you pay a little attention, you can still find the situation.

There is a high probability that there is too much movement inside the castle, and there are already shouts of killing, attracting the attention of the sentries on the top of the castle. It was not until Li Ding and the others rushed to the bottom of the castle that the Dutch sentries on the top of the castle discovered what was going on outside. Frightened, he called the police and fired at the same time.

However, Li Ding and the others had been paying attention to the movement on the top of the city. When they saw that they were discovered, they didn't hesitate. They immediately aimed at the figure of the Dutch sentinel on the top of the city, and buckled the crossbow in their hands.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

The sound was far smaller than the sound of gunshots, and it rang out densely. Many people had no time to guard against the sentries on the top of the city, and they were shot and fell down immediately.The rest of the sentries quickly hid, and started shooting randomly, while yelling warnings.

The movements of Li Ding and others were very fast, and they had already planned in advance, who would do what, had already been arranged.

Some of the soldiers continued to hold their crossbows and stared at the top of the city. As soon as the Dutch sentries showed their heads, they would shoot crossbow arrows; I heard the metal crashing sound when the flying hook was thrown on the top of the city.

However, the noise in the city was very loud, and the sound of the metal impact was covered up, so nothing could be heard.

The soldiers of the Ming army pulled hard, and the flying hooks caught the battlements one after another, and the ropes immediately stretched straight.

Without ordering, the first batch of soldiers of the Ming army immediately started climbing with ropes.

The sentry on the top of the city noticed this situation, and while shooting outside the city, they shouted louder.Even if Yu Chong and the others couldn't understand what they said, they could tell from their terrified tone that the Dutch sentry on the top of the wall was calling for help.

However, the reinforcements did not seem to arrive in time. Only seven or eight of the first batch of more than 30 Ming soldiers fell, and the others successfully climbed to the top of the city.

Unexpectedly smooth!
The follow-up soldiers of the Ming army moved quickly and immediately climbed up.

Yu Chong was also among the second batch of soldiers who went up to the top of the city. When he got up to the top of the city, he immediately found that the comrades who came up first had already cleared out a piece of the city wall, and they continued to push outward, competing with the Dutch sentry for control of the city wall. right.

In the dark at night, especially in close combat, firearms are far less effective than cold weapons.One could tell at a glance that it was the soldiers of the Ming army who had the upper hand, killing the Dutch sentry on the top of the city and retreating step by step.Of course, this is also related to the lack of reinforcements for the Dutch sentry.

The soldiers of the Ming army who went up with Yu Chong immediately rushed to support their comrades.Yu Chong immediately looked at the situation in the city.

I saw that everywhere in the city was indeed in chaos, and there were signs of fighting everywhere.

Looking at the situation, he knew that it was true, those strong men rebelled and helped him a lot!
So, without further ado, he immediately started charging.

Inside the castle, Guo Huaiyi waited for the dead of night when he got out of the warehouse window, killed a Dutch soldier next to the warehouse, opened the warehouse, and released his companions.

Afterwards, they released more companions according to the plan.

At the beginning, it went smoothly, and several companions in the warehouse were released, but when they went to release the companions in the cellar, there was a commotion, and they were discovered by the Dutch sentinel, and then they started to start.

This can't be blamed on the people in the cellar, because when Guo Huaiyi and the others went to open the cellar, the people inside were already suffocated to death because they were hungry and tired, and the oxygen in the air was consumed too much.As soon as the cellar door was opened, everyone flocked out, and the Dutch discovered it after a lot of noise.

There are a total of 300 to 400 Dutch people stationed in this fortress. Among them, about 100 people are on duty, and the rest of the Dutch people are sleeping.

If it is only a small-scale riot, and it is under normal circumstances, it is estimated that it will be suppressed soon.

But at this time, there are powerful enemies outside, and the Dutch sentries on duty are all paying attention to the outside.By the time they discovered the labor riot, at least a few hundred workers had rushed out.Moreover, more than half of the hundred or so Dutch sentries on duty dare not leave their posts without authorization, and it takes time for the sleeping Dutchmen to react when they hear the movement.

It just so happened that the Ming army really planned to steal the city. As soon as they heard the commotion in the castle, they immediately launched an attack, which even restrained the strength of the sentinels on duty.

As a result, the pressure of Guo Huaiyi's riot was not as great as imagined; and the attack of Yu Chong and others was not as great as imagined.Only the Dutch in the castle, most of them didn't know what was going on, felt a lot of pressure, or were a little frightened, so they could only deal with it with the flow.

It's just that within a short while, in the castle, on the top of the city, there was a sound of killing, which spread far away, and spread very far in the silent night.

Seeing it from Zeng Ying's side, it seemed that there was something going on, and he was overjoyed, and immediately sent reinforcements to reinforce the battle on the castle side.

On the other side of Zeelandia City, Kui Yi, who had been sleeping restlessly, was also woken up urgently, and when he heard the news, he turned pale with shock.

If the fort was lost, the Ming army would be able to occupy the commanding heights, which would be a very serious threat to Zeelandia.

So, he wanted to send reinforcements.However, looking outside the dark city, on the way to Zhibao, whether there is an ambush by the Ming army, he is not sure at all!

Originally, there were not enough troops for the Ming army. If they were sent out rashly, if they were caught in an ambush, it would be tantamount to amputating their own arm, and it would even lower the defense of Zeelandia City.

However, if he didn't save him, he would be very worried when he heard the shouts of killing coming from the other side!

Can relying solely on the people in the fortress stop this crisis?Can you hold on until dawn?

To be honest, Kuiyi really has no bottom in his heart!
Immediately afterwards, he discovered that there was a fire dragon in the Ming army in the distance, heading for the branch.Needless to say, this is definitely the Ming army's reinforcements.

On the other side of the Zhibao, the screams of killing were loud, and there was still no sign of calming down. Now that they went to the Ming Kingdom to reinforce the army, it would definitely be a disaster!

Seeing this scene, Kui Yi had no choice. He gritted his teeth and immediately mobilized [-] Dutchmen to reinforce the fort on the top of the mountain.

Other than that, Kuiyi could only pray secretly in his heart for God's blessing.

But, vaguely, he felt that God might not have come to the Far East, otherwise, with God's blessing, things couldn't have gone so smoothly, right?

Or, this is the territory of the gods from all walks of life in the Ming Dynasty, and God can't get through?

Under the dark night, Kui Yi couldn't do more, so he could only continue to pray for God's blessing.
