My Daming New Empire

Page 384

The Japanese did not have muskets, so they had to rely on Japanese knives and spears to fight each other.

Although the opponent's weapons are worse, but the opponent's number is too large, they do not have an absolute advantage.

But now that the main force of Ming Dynasty has arrived in Bengkulu, the task of these people is to harass the other party and prevent the other party from forming an effective resistance easily.

So even though the opponent has gathered tens of thousands of people, they still launched guerrilla tactics regardless of life and death.

In the first attack, the Bengkulu people were unprepared, and they dared to attack tens of thousands of people without even thinking about 2000 people.

So this time the Bengkulu tribe suffered heavy losses and suffered countless casualties.

But in the evening, the second attack encountered the natives who had already taken precautions, and a fierce battle broke out between the two sides.

The Japanese have been trained for a long time, and each of them is strong and strong, and their personal force has an absolute advantage.

Although the natives are weak and their weapons are not enough, they are numerous and powerful.In order to protect their own homeland, even women and old people have joined the battle.

In the second attack, the Japanese themselves lost more than 300 people. Although not all of them died, in this dangerous tropical rainforest area, it is very difficult to keep their lives after being separated.

These Japanese are not soldiers of the Habayashi School of Guards. They have a clear understanding of this tropical rainforest, have a strong ability to survive in the wild, and can even distinguish directions.

As long as they are not very lucky, it is difficult for them to survive.

At this time, the soldiers of Habayashi Weixue who were still scattered among the mountains and forests became the only savior of these Japanese people.

Zhuang Jing was very distressed, these 300 soldiers were just an insignificant number to the entire Ming Dynasty.For him, it was a sixth of his strength lost.

When night came, the natives finally didn't dare to pursue them anymore, and they themselves were too scared to be killed.

Because these Japanese are not afraid of death, every time they kill a person, they need to exchange a few lives.

The natives fought so bravely not because of their natural bravery, but more because of the Japanese themselves.

Everyone in the Japanese pirate camp carried their trophies with them.During the burning, killing and looting in the past few days, everyone was full of harvest.

And if you kill a Japanese, you can find countless gold, silver and jewels from them, which also makes these natives crazy.

So, it was their greed that hurt the Japanese themselves.

Hiding in a stronghold arranged by Habayashi Weixue for them, a group of Japanese people were busy finding out the medicines and food in reserve, and began to clean the wounds and fill their stomachs.

Zhuang Jing, however, has no appetite, thinking of Pang Ying who is going to the capital of Bengkulu, hoping that he can join the main force as soon as possible and come back as soon as possible.

He couldn't bear such casualties several times, and the fewer their numbers, the more casualties each time would be.

He knew very well that the people of Habayashi Weixue might help them when conditions permit, but they would never help them when the battle was tense.

Because the people from Habayashi Guard are the seeds of the Ming army, the lives of each of them are extremely important to the grandson and emperor.

The first batch of soldiers who left the army, in just a few years, are now on the defensive, and even at the command level.

And the promotion is so fast, no general has any objections.Because each of them is the most important general of Ming Dynasty now.

The first batch of orphans, Taisun taught them literacy, taught them the art of war, taught them new military training, taught them to distinguish celestial phenomena, and survey terrain.

These people started the signboard of the young army, but now they are Habayashi Eyaku.

The newly formed Young Army, because Xue Lu didn't win the people who were originally named as the Young Army, Xue Lu also fought Zhao Yongliang, the current general of the Habayashi Guard, for a long time.

Later, under the intervention of the grandson, Xue Lu had to watch helplessly as the original young army was assigned to the Habayashi Guard School.

Although Habayashi Guard is counted in terms of personnel, it is only a brigade-level military guard.Both Chen Li and Zhang Fengshan, who are in the highest positions, are only at the first level of defense.

But today's Ming army recognizes that the people who graduated from Habayashi Guard are the third rank of the official university.Because basically as long as there are talented people who have left here, after each one comes out, the minimum is the position of Chief Qian.

Talents of such quality would never be wasted on the battlefield for these Japanese pirates.

Not to mention, there are three more new recruits here, more than 1000 noble children.The lives of these noble children are more valuable, if Zhuang Jing and these people really died in Nanyang, Zhuang Jing would never even think about returning to Daming for the rest of his life.

"My lord, Habayashi Weixue pays a visit to President Yuan Zhen."

"Hurry up, please..." Zhuang Jing was startled, wishing he could kill Goro with a single knife. "No, I'll meet you in person."

Pang Ying is not there, and now he is surrounded by some Dongying people.Although these people are loyal enough, they don't know anything about Daming's power class.

It seems that in the future, I still need to find a few smarter people by my side, so as not to neglect the distinguished guests.

Zhuang Jing greeted him out of the room, and clasped his fists at a young man outside the door who was wearing a military uniform of unidentifiable rank: "I don't know Mr. Yuan is here, you are negligent, negligent."

Although this Yuan Zhen is only a small commander of Habayashi Wei Xue, he has no more than a hundred people under his jurisdiction. If it is ranked by rank, it is not worth mentioning in the entire Ming army.

But his grandfather was the founding general Yuan Hong, his father was Yuan Rong, Marquis of Guangping, and his mother was Zhu Yuying, Princess Yong'an, the eldest daughter of His Majesty.

According to his family background, he is a well-known general, and according to his seniority, he and His Highness Taisun are close cousins.

Moreover, as the son of the Marquis of Guangping, Yuan Zhen was highly valued by his father, loved by his mother, and had no real brothers, so he was the best candidate to succeed Marquis of Guangping.

Even when Zhuang Jingji Gang was at his most domineering, he never dared to offend such a wealthy kid.

Yuan Zhen smiled, bowed back and said, "Those who don't know are not guilty, let alone today's fierce battle, these Japanese people also impress me."

Zhuang Jing knew that everything on the battlefield was under the surveillance of Habayashi Weixue, and he was not surprised that Yuan Zhen knew about today's battle.He leaned over and invited Yuan Zhen into the room, and asked, "I don't know why the general manager came here in person?"

Since receiving the news of the arrival of the main fleet yesterday, Zhang Fengshan and his party have disappeared.Zhuang Jing didn't want to ask about Habayashi's arrangements, he only knew that there were people from Habayashi around them, but they didn't intend to reveal their identities.

Yuan Zhen entered the room, sat on the main seat without hesitation, and said: "I was just assigned to this area, and even the house you live in was cleared out by me. How many people came here today? I have a question, I want to ask the commander face to face."

Zhuang Jing clasped his fists and said: "When you make up your mind, you should know everything."

"Okay, refreshing!" Yuan Zhen presumptuously invited Zhuang Jing to sit down, and then said: "I don't understand some of the actions of Ji Gang and you since the Eastern Expedition to Dongying last year. When Ji Gang seals the uncle, I Only then did I realize that you played a big game of chess with His Highness.

Now that Ji Gang is his local tyrant in Dongying, but you don't enjoy the glory and wealth with him, but instead bring a group of Japanese pirates to risk your life to gain a better future. Why is this?Do you also want to be an uncle? "

Zhuang Jing just hesitated for a moment, and then chose to speak openly and honestly: "Back to my son, I am lucky enough to see the globe, so I know how big the world is and how many unowned lands. Mr. Ji is now enjoying happiness in Dongpu, although I am not Cai, it is very easy to get rich and prosperous there. The Ishijian Yinshan is countless times larger than the largest Yinshan in my Ming Dynasty. Even if most of the harvest has to be handed over to the court, there is still a lot left, enough for me to spend time and drink. "

Yuan Zhen nodded and said: "The last time I saw the information from Dongying in Malaga, in March this year, Ishijian Yinshan released 40 taels of silver a month. It is really a silver mountain! That's why I was even more curious. Why did you choose to risk your life to win..."

"That's because His Highness said that there is a bigger golden mountain..."

Yuan Zhen was surprised and asked, "Where is it?"

"Nanzhou."

Yuan Zhen slapped his hands and said with a smile: "I knew it must be so! Then, do you know why His Highness didn't tell me first, but let you go out first?"

Zhuang Jing's heart trembled, and from his stuck questioning, he knew that these nobles were not impulsive about this matter, but had been planning for a long time.

Zhuang Jing could only follow his will and said: "It is not easy to open up wasteland in those barbaric lands. It should be that His Highness wants me to open up the situation first, and then let the nobles come forward. This time, His Highness took the clan to the West together. It should be to explore The way is coming."
