Codex of the Old Gods: I Have a World

Rosada pointed to a leading villager and said: "This is the black monkey. Don't kill them all. Just kill the monkey that can jump best, and the rest will disperse."

The adjutant asked again: "Then the Qing Empire, will they be held accountable?"

Rosada made another metaphor: "The Qing Empire is like the group of children just now. They look arrogant, but in fact they are weak. We beat their monkeys to death, and they were angry, but they did not dare to resist. In addition, there is a Chinese idiom called Referring to a deer as a horse, do you understand?"

The adjutant began to admire the new governor.

He is fundamentally different from the original Gao Dingyu.

This guy has brains.

The adjutant gave some instructions, and a Portuguese soldier stepped forward and said while pushing the villagers: "I'm warning you not to hurt Portuguese citizens, otherwise I will make you look good."

The leading villager was confused. They were just preventing the survey of the terrain. When did they harm Portuguese citizens?

"You are talking nonsense, we are just protecting our homeland..."

The Portuguese soldier, before he could finish speaking, took out his dagger and made a cut on the back of his hand. Then he dropped the dagger on the ground, pointed at the villager and said: "Ah...he hurt me, this Chinese guy hurt me." …”

The leading villager's head was buzzing, and he subconsciously took a step back and pointed at the Portuguese soldier: "You are clearly hurting yourself, so don't slander..."

The words were not finished.

boom!

Gunshots.

The leading villager threw his head back and fell. He was shot in the chest. His eyes were wide open. Perhaps the bullet had damaged his lungs. His breathing was like a bellows, making a "hissing" sound.

The others were frightened and instinctively backed away.

"How dare you Portuguese people shoot?"

The adjutant stood up and shouted: "You Chinese people are working together to harm us Portuguese people. This matter is not over!"

The others retreated in shock, could they still shoot?

Rosada smiled, took the lead and walked forward with her hands behind her back.

This time, no villager dared to stop him.

The adjutant shouted as he walked: "We will send a note to the Qing Empire to inform you of the good things you did today. You dirty and despicable pigs will be punished by your Yamen!"

The villagers were even more at a loss.

Because this kind of thing may really happen. From Cixi to the petty officials, they are all such a bunch of things.

Not only did Rosada have the terrain surveyed, he even left fifteen Portuguese soldiers behind, saying they were stationing troops and wanted to build a fort here, claiming that banditry was serious here and must be curbed.

Because the gun killed the first bird, the people dared to be angry but dared not speak out.

But someone immediately reported the matter to the Boundary Demarcation and Maintenance Committee.

The situation escalated immediately.

The heads of the Boundary Demarcation and Maintenance Committee gathered together.

"The villagers were brutally beaten to death and falsely accused of being thieves. The Portuguese go too far in bullying others."

"What can I do?"

"Form a militia group and surround the countryside! Gather a large group and work hard to save it!"

Under the auspices of the Boundary Demarcation and Maintenance Committee, the Jiu'ao Mountain Vigilante Group was established.

Among them was the little old man who sold water. He became a pioneer at sea and was responsible for sailing to find out the news.

In the afternoon of that day, the Jiuao Mountain Militia, armed with hatchets, machetes, and harpoons, secretly approached the temporary tent of more than ten Portuguese soldiers left by Rosada, and with a shout, they broke into it.

The Portuguese soldiers were stunned. Seeing a group of ferocious-looking fishermen suddenly arriving, they naturally resisted.

However, for a long time, the image of the Chinese people as weak and bullied has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. They had no much defense at all and were killed by countless fishermen in an instant, armed with hatchets, harpoons and other weapons.

Rosada also left behind a cannon, which was also captured by the militia.

The villagers who had just won the battle were very excited and felt that the Portuguese were nothing more than this.

Everyone was shouting like crazy as if they had been beaten to death.

That night, Rosada was also very shocked after receiving the news.

During the day, the timid expressions of the villagers were still vivid in my mind. Why did these sheep turn into wolves in the blink of an eye?

Rosada took a deep breath, which was what he did when there was a big event.

This gentleman is also a capable man. He was originally the governor of the West African colony, but was urgently transferred to Australia Island. In the future, during World War I, he would go to southern Angola and become the supreme commander of Portugal. After World War I and before World War II, he even launched a coup in Portugal with several people and succeeded. He held a high position until his death.

It must be said that this is a man who is steady, cunning and ruthless.

Rosada's cheeks twitched and she said in a deep voice: "Send warships immediately, advance into Litchi Bay, and attack this island with all your strength."

The adjutant reminded: "Governor, our warships... are gone. They were all sunk by Zhao Chuanxin."

Rosada choked.

Historically, the Portuguese had mobilized warships to attack Coloane, and the villagers on the island were naturally defeated by the strong ships and cannons and were massacred.

But at this time, Zhao Chuanxin accidentally rescued these villagers.

Rosada licked her lips: "Gather the soldiers, advance into Coloane, and besiege Jiuao Mountain. Since we are suppressing bandits, we must suppress them thoroughly."

The adjutant hesitated: "Would this cause too much trouble?"

"No problem, call the Qing Empire immediately and tell them that bandits have killed more than ten of our soldiers. The death of Chinese people is nothing. But the death of our people is a big deal. I think the Qing Empire can tell the difference."

What’s scary is not that foreigners think so. What’s scary is that even Cixi and some people think so. Otherwise, Rosada would not have vowed to say this.

But he said that when the villagers on Jiuao Mountain were killed, Chui Shuiju had already learned that Zhao Chuanxin had left, so he returned to Shushan to join Li Zhitao without knowing about it.

In the absence of Zhao Chuanxin, for Chui Shuiju, Jiuao Mountain was just a desolate place.

He won't linger.

Everything happened too fast.

When Li Zhitao received the news, the militia on Jiuao Mountain had been besieged by Portuguese soldiers overnight.

The residents of the island united and repelled the attacks of Portuguese soldiers three times. Even Rosada did not expect this.

This made him very angry.

He called the adjutant: "Have the soldiers lost their blood for a long time after living here? After attacking a group of fishermen, they were beaten back three times?"

The adjutant wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "Governor, it's just that these country bumpkins are familiar with the terrain and use this advantage to deal with us. As long as the governor sends more troops, they will definitely go to the island during the day today and slaughter all these bandits."

Rosada was bold and careful: "Since they resisted so fiercely, they have confirmed their identity as gangsters. You quickly increase your troops and divide them into two groups. One group attacks on the shore, and the other group takes the water route. We don't have warships, but We can also commandeer a few clippers. If they dare to resist, don’t blame me for killing them all, making it impossible for them to escape by boat."

The adjutant gritted his teeth and said: "I promise to capture this island today, let our Portuguese flag fly on Jiuao Mountain, and let their houses become our forts."

"Go."
