Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

Chapter 739 Only six of us are left

During the training of the Ming Dynasty Navy, there was a clear but not on-paper regulation - to go to sea, you must carry some rags from the Tang and Song Dynasties with you. If you can't find them, you can bring some things from the Yongle period. Bury it on the ground.

If you really can't prove that this place was once ruled by the Tang and Song Dynasties, you will fall on the head of the Sanbao eunuch, saying that the Sanbao eunuch has come and designated this land as a vassal state-if anyone doesn't believe it, the imperial history of the capital of the Ming Dynasty will prepare Well enough evidence.

Now that the barbarian on the opposite side, Cartier, who claimed to be the governor of New France, said that he might have buried it himself, Zhang Kewang couldn't help but blushed, and said angrily: "Nonsense! The eunuch Sanbao went to the West seven times. After passing through this place, I have seen the survivors of the Yin and Shang Dynasties here, so this place must belong to me, Ming Dynasty!"

Cartier said: "The survivors? Is there any evidence? Of course, the evidence I am talking about is not the things you buried, but the witnesses. Is there any evidence?"

Zhang Kewang said: "After more than 200 years, where can I look for it? Even after 200 years, this place is still my Ming Dynasty's vassal state, and when the barbarians occupy the land of the Celestial Dynasty, they will be punished!"

Although he couldn't understand what Zhang Kewang was talking about, Cartier could still guess something from Zhang Kewang's exasperated expression, and immediately raised his hand and ordered his subordinates to be on guard.

As the French soldiers began to be on guard, so did Zhang Kewang's subordinates - Zhang Kewang's side was a complete thousand households, nearly ten times more than the barbarians on the opposite side.

Cartier was also aware of the gap in the number of people on both sides, and said angrily: "You gave up here for more than 200 years, and naturally this place belongs to the great France, not you!

If you want a war, let's fight one!Although you are many, there will be many more soldiers in great France! "

It's just because I took an extra look at you in the crowd—for a very real reason, Zhang Kewang and Cartier didn't like each other, and then started the film directly.

Taking advantage of the number and equipment, Cartier was quickly tied up and sent to Zhang Kewang.

Looking at Cartier, who was still full of dissatisfaction, Zhang Kewang smiled and said, "Now, who should own the land here?"

Cartier said angrily: "Naturally it is the great France!"

Zhang Kewang said helplessly: "Look, there's no way to continue talking here—pull it down, cut it off."

After listening to the interpreter's translation, Cartier struggled crazily: "No! I'm a nobleman and a gentleman, you can't treat me like this!"

It wasn't until Cartier's head was delivered that Zhang Kewang looked at the interpreter: "What the hell was this barbarian screaming just now?"

The interpreter said: "Just now, this barbarian said that he is a poet, you can't just kill him."

Zhang Kewang poohed bitterly and said: "The slaughter is all slaughtered, where did all these nonsense come from, barbarian scholars can also be called poets and scholars?"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Kewang went on to say: "Pay attention, and spread out the scouts. The front thousand households are ready to attack, the left and right thousand households are ready to guard, the middle thousand households continue to build camps, and the rear thousand households continue to farm. !"

As Zhang Kewang's order was executed, a large number of scouts began to be scattered, and they began to explore the surrounding locations directly, intending to find out if there were other barbarians.

The left and right thousand households began to put out a series of dead weapons, and began to carry out combat readiness patrols. Only the middle thousand households and the latter thousand households continued to work hard to farm and repair the camp.

The news brought back by the scouts also gave Zhang Kewang a headache.

There weren't many barbarians nearby, and occasionally there were not many people in a few places, but farther away, especially in the south, a large number of barbarians began to appear, and even their weapons and equipment were not similar to those of Daming.

Regarding the barbarian's weapons, Zhang Kewang still has some ideas in his mind. After all, Cartier and his subordinates also used firecrackers before. Although they are not as good as Daming's firecrackers, the gap is not as great.

To put it simply, the whole guard brought by Zhang Kewang has already poked a hornet's nest.

Now many barbarians in other places have begun to send people to look for Cartier. If these barbarians finally gather in the direction where Zhang Kewang and others are, and Zhang Kewang and others can't hold Zhang Xianzhong back, then things will be really serious.

At this moment, Zhang Kewang didn't even have the mood to farm the land. After gathering five thousand households together, Zhang Kewang said directly: "What do you think? It won't take long for these barbarians to come here. I don't think there's much to say about that, right?"

Qian Haidao of the former thousand households: "If we are an entire guard, if we stick to this place, the ammunition will run out sooner or later, and the barbarians have occupied this place for many years, and it is very likely that they have their own firearms factory. The above suffers."

Zuo Qianhu Lu Bing said: "Judging from the information in front of us, these barbarians also have a lot of artillery in their hands, and the ammunition is probably sufficient. Even if we want to defend the city here, we may not be able to consume more energy than them.

Therefore, I think we can take the initiative to attack first, relying on the four thousand households in our hands, and attack the barbarians first. Whether it is destroying their ammunition reserves or disrupting their assembly plan, it can delay some time. "

Zhang Kewang nodded and said, "That's right, what we lack most now is time. As long as the fleet brings enough equipment and soldiers next time, it won't be difficult to kill these barbarians."

But Zhongqianhu Ji Yifeng said: "Speaking of the fleet, I'm afraid those barbarians will also have it? Even if they didn't show up before, once the barbarians find us, I'm afraid they will block our sea retreat.

And the Marshal's fleet will return to Daming and prepare supplies to return. It may take four or five months at the earliest. Can we resist it?

Even if we continue to attack those barbarians or go into the mountains to fight against them, when the commander's fleet returns, will we still stay here? "

Ji Yifeng's words made everyone look a little sad.

If the city has already been built, and there are a lot of firearms in hand, it will not be a big problem to guard it for a few months.

Even if there is no city, and the barbarian does not have a lot of firearms in his hands, it is probably no problem to guard it for months or even years.

No one expected that there would be so many barbarians here, and the barbarians still had a lot of firearms!

"Kill them!"

Slamming the table, Zhang Kewang said with a gloomy face: "The front, left, right, and middle four thousand households, take the initiative to attack, and no matter what, we must buy time for the fleet to come back.

No matter whether you take the initiative to attack the barbarian's camp or lead the barbarian to another place, the commander can't let the barbarian find here anyway.

Half a year, no matter what, we have to hold on for half a year. Even if we can't beat these barbarians, we can retreat calmly and come back with the East China Sea Fleet and South China Sea Fleet.

This commander is with Zhongqianhusuo, and the camp here will be handed over to Houqianhusuo. If we all die in battle, someone must pass the news to the fleet. Do you understand? "

The eunuch who had not spoken all this time suddenly said: "Let's write down the suicide note, our family will keep it together with Houqianhu. Come and do it for you. If our family steals a penny from it, we will make our family eunuchs forever!"

……

It took longer than expected by Zhang Kewang and others. Seven months had passed since Zhang Xianzhong came back from Sakhalin Island—winter is almost over!

After careful checking, Zhang Xianzhong still felt a little confused.

This large piece of land in front of me is not to mention a camp, except for the vast white snow that has not completely melted, there is no trace of human habitation, how could it be a place where I have landed before?

What about Zhang Kewang?Where the hell did the whole guard go?

The guard sent out to look for Zhang Kewang and others didn't come back until night, and apart from a small Jingguan built with more than a hundred barbarians to prove what happened here, there were no other clues.

Mao Wenlong, who was already very old, took a telescope to look back and forth several times before he asked, "Where is that child?"

Zhang Xianzhong was dumbfounded.

The presence of Jingguan meant that there had been a battle here, but Zhang Kewang and the others did not have a trace. It can be said that no one is alive but no dead body is seen, which is unreasonable.

In desperation, Zhang Xianzhong had no choice but to say: "Back then it was true that Humble Job stopped the ship here, and it was true that Ming Kewang waited for someone to build a camp here. Now that they are nowhere to be seen, I am afraid that something happened?"

Mao Wenlong said: "The governor knows that you are worried, but when you came last time, you only brought a small fleet. Now that the Beihai Fleet has been exhausted, is there anything to worry about? Now I can't find any of them. People just look for it.

You have to remember that as a general, you must first stabilize yourself, so that the morale of the army can be stabilized.An unstable military spirit is the taboo of leading the army! "

Both Geng Jingzhong and Shang Kexi were somewhat envious of Zhang Xianzhong. Mao Wenlong's words to Zhang Xianzhong now obviously intended to recommend Zhang Xianzhong to take over the Beihai Fleet in the future.

Zhang Xianzhong was more worried about Zhang Kewang.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Xianzhong said: "Marshal, why don't you let the humble officer lead the troops to search for them? Since you can't find the children of Hope nearby, how about the humble officer expand the scope of the search?"
