Traveling through history leaving a name

Chapter 394 Rebellion
After the navy officers and soldiers of the Ming army landed on the island from other places, they began to attack the pirates' lair from both sides.

However, what greeted these naval officers and soldiers were various obstacles and matchlock bullets.

After the navy officers and soldiers launched two rounds of charges and were killed and injured thousands of people, no one dared to charge again.

"My lord, brothers have lost too much, we can't fight any more." Xiao Wenmang, the deputy commander-in-chief of the navy of the Ming army, said to Tian Hai, the commander-in-chief of the navy, in a pleading tone.

"No, we must take down this group of pirates today." Regarding Xiao Wenmang's nonsense, Tian Hai directly refuted, and he issued an order with a cold face: "Pass my order and continue to attack, Liu Youde, you lead your 2000 men to attack from the right wing .Zhou Rang, you lead the 2000 men you have collected to attack from the left."

"We can't fight anymore, brothers will suffer too many casualties." Xiao Wenmang still wanted to fight.

More than 1000 navy officers and soldiers were killed when they landed on the beach, and more than 1000 people died just after attacking the pirates' lair.

It is equivalent to the loss of more than two-tenths of the entire navy's officers and soldiers at once.

In ancient wars, if two armies were fighting against each other, as long as one-tenth of the troops were lost, there would be a risk of collapse. If they could persist until 20.00%, they would be absolutely elite soldiers.

Are the officers and soldiers of the Daming Navy elite soldiers?Absolutely not.

If the navy officers and soldiers knew that there were only more than 500 pirates on the island, they had an absolute superiority in numbers, otherwise they would have collapsed long ago.

But even so, with today's two battles, the morale of the officers and men of the Daming Navy has fallen to the bottom.

"Don't you understand my words, continue to attack." Tian Haichao gave an order to his generals.

Soon, the attack drums sounded again in the naval formation.

Under the supervision of a team of military judges, countless Ming army sailors continued to attack the pirates' lair.

Bang bang bang bang bang bang.

Countless gunshots rang out, and countless officers and soldiers of the Daming Navy who charged forward fell to the ground one after another.

If they were on flat ground and could attack from all directions, they would have taken down the pirates' nest by relying on their numerical advantage.

However, the geographical location of the pirate lair determined that they could only attack from two directions, and there was no way to invest too many troops at the same time when attacking.

The battle lasted for half an hour. The four thousand Ming army sailors attacked the pirates' lair from two directions, but they still couldn't get close.

Half an hour later, the attacking naval officers and soldiers had killed or injured more than a thousand people.

Under such circumstances, the attacking navy officers and soldiers finally couldn't stand it anymore, and some people started to turn around and run away.

With one, there are two, and with two, there are three, which quickly affected all the soldiers. After a while, all the attacking soldiers turned around quickly and ran back.

"No retreat, no retreat, those who retreat will be killed without mercy."

Seeing the soldiers running away, hundreds of military judges behind them immediately drew out their knives and threatened them.

"Fuck you, why don't you go up, anyone who dares to block me, die."

Seeing that the military judge did not allow them to retreat, some soldiers immediately drew their swords and slashed at the military judge.

"Damn it, Tian wants us to die, we're going to fight with his mother."

With the leader, others also drew their knives and slashed at the military judge who blocked their escape.

In the naval formation, Navy Commander-in-Chief Tian Hai suddenly became so angry that he trembled with rage when he saw the soldiers retreating and escaping, while also slashing the military judge.

He issued an order to the generals around him and said: "It's against the sky, pass my order to let them continue to attack, or shoot them all."

"No way, General, if you do this, the morale of the army will be in turmoil." Some of his subordinates persuaded Tian Haidao.

At this time, there were more than 3000 deserters at least. If all these deserters were shot, the loss would be too great.

Moreover, if the deserters are really attacked, it is impossible for the deserters not to resist, and the entire army formation will be in chaos.

"Are you going to rebel too? I don't want to say it a second time, let them continue to attack, or shoot them all." Tian Hai gave the order again.

He believes that as long as his attitude is tougher, the fleeing soldiers can be suppressed and go back to attack the pirate's lair.

"Fuck you, I've had enough of you, die for me."

Tian Hai heard a loud shout, and when he turned his head, he saw a long knife slashing at his neck.

Before he had time to react, Tian Hai only felt his neck go cold, and then he lost his intuition.

With a thud, Tian Hai, the navy commander, fell to the ground.

All around, everyone looked at this scene in horror.

"Brothers, this Tian Hai is a member of a big family, and he doesn't treat us ordinary military households as human beings at all. If we let him continue like this, we don't know how many brothers we will die. I've had enough of him long ago. Instead of letting him continue to send brothers to It's better to turn his mother's back than to die." Deputy Chief Soldier Xiao Wenmang said loudly to everyone, it turned out that the knife just now was precisely his handwriting.

"Now that Tian Hai is dead, even if you kill me, you won't be able to escape the fate of being beheaded when you go back. Let me ask you, are you against it?" Xiao Wenmang asked everyone.

"Xiao Zongbing is right. This Tian Hai's family is a big merchant. The pirates robbed their ship. They want to wipe out the pirates, but this is none of our business. Why do we have to work for them? I'm against it." Xiao Wenmang said The subordinates stood up and responded immediately.

"I'm wrong too. Tian Hai is not a human being. I wanted to kill him a long time ago." Others expressed their opinions one after another.

The few people who do not want to express their views can only be forced to express their views after everyone else has expressed their views.

Just as everyone expressed their opinions, the rout soldiers who attacked the pirates' lair also returned to the army formation.

They hacked and killed the military judge, and everyone was a little scared. They thought they would be confiscated and imprisoned.

However, soon, they got the result that Tian Hai, the chief soldier of the navy, had been killed by Xiao Wenmang, the deputy chief soldier, and Xiao Wenmang, the deputy chief soldier, rebelled.

But in this way, they also breathed a sigh of relief. Compared with the deputy chief soldier killing the chief soldier, what is the matter of them fleeing and killing the military judge?
After these defeated soldiers returned to the army formation, Xiao Wenmang personally appeared to appease everyone.

Xiao Wenmang knew that if he killed the chief soldier, he would definitely be guilty if he went back, and these defeated soldiers would also be guilty of killing the military judge.As long as he can win over these rout soldiers, these rout soldiers will become their confidantes in the future.

"Everyone, since we have killed officials and rebelled, we can't go back. Fortunately, some of us have ships, so I plan to lead everyone to become pirates. I don't know what everyone thinks?" Xiao Wenmang asked everyone.

"Xiao Zongbing, is the only way to be a pirate? We still have relatives in Fuzhou. If the court finds out, they will definitely be implicated."

Someone persuaded Xiao Wenmang: "Yes, Zongbing Xiao, there are so many of us, even if we go back to the imperial court, we won't do anything to us. After all, the law does not blame the public."

"Go back, do you think it's that easy to go back? Who are we? It's the navy. Now all the big merchants in Minzhe have been robbed by pirates. They won't stop until they wipe out the pirates. Then you will go back. Still have to be sent to die."

Xiao Wenmang said: "Rather than being sent to die by the imperial court, it is better to be a pirate. As for the family members, we can keep quiet and pick them up quietly. If it doesn't work, we can call them back and pick them up directly. If we find a big island in Nanyang and hide there, the imperial court will have nothing to do with us."

"Okay, I agree with Mr. Xiao. Let's go to Nanyang. The island over there is full of aborigines. Maybe we can build a new world."
