Chapter Eighty-Nine: Desperate Situation
Under Chen Mu, there are so many savages!
First, there were Yang Zhaolong's 500 Xinming immigrant groups, and then there was Lin Manjue, the king of Guam Mountain.
There is no way to sink the ship, there is no material to repair the damaged shark ship, not to mention that he does not dare to cut wood and repair it in the enemy's territory, Lin Manjue does not want his ship to be captured by the enemy, and he is unwilling to escape back, so there is only one way to sink the ship.
The folding masts of the five small shark boats were lowered by them, and more than 300 people dismantled the noose that pulled the iron anchor on the ship, and it took a lot of effort to pull the five big ships to the shore and find a place to turn over at the edge of the dense forest.
It took a lot of effort to dig sand and take soil, and he had to worry about enemy patrols, so he disguised the five small shark boats as dirt slopes and rocky slopes, not to mention, Lin Manjue felt that it was quite convenient for this boat to be buckled on the ground.
A few large stones were piled up outside the gunhole, leaving a hole for one person to enter and exit, and the ship was detained with small boxes of objects that could not be transported away, especially kimchi and tea and other things that could be stored, and they were moved back one by one, just to use the roof of the past as the floor, and the bottom of the ship as the plank.
Whether it was wisdom or cleverness, Lin Manjue's plan to detour and hide on the east side of the island was achieved, and he sent several squads of village warriors who were mountain people to go into the dense forest and mountains to find a suitable place to take refuge and explore the surrounding situation, and for eight days, their large army hiding near the ship once discovered that there were enemy ships sailing in the coastal waters, and they were not found.
Of course, they can't be found, these ships are so disguised that even Lin Manjue sometimes can't find them when he walks farther away and then comes back, let alone the sea more than ten miles away!
"The commander waved his army to attack, with a strong wind in between, at least four months, we have to wait for six months, and we may not be able to wait for six months."
At night, Lin Manjue did not dare to light a fire on the beach, they drank hot porridge in the boat, carefully opened the window to let the fireworks slowly disperse, the man who was boiling porridge in the cabin was choked with red eyes, and the tears could not be stopped.
"There are no reinforcements, and there is no follow-up baggage, and the island is both human and land, and it is impossible to understand the capture of prisoners."
"Ninety-four large and small artillery pieces, 1,200 shells, 26 small flags and arrows, and 70 palm-mounted mines; 370 barrels and more than 9,000 guns, and 14,000 catties of gunpowder vats and small boxes; Water and food ...... It is only enough for me for six hundred and seventy-six days. ”
Lin Manjue let out a long exhale, no one could see his face clearly in the night, but his tone sounded promising, all the materials had become consumables, and they would be finished when they were used up.
Anyone who encounters this situation will be discouraged, but after being depressed, they can only go forward, they have to live.
"There is not much gunpowder, not enough water and food, tomorrow I will take out two guns of five catties, ten guns and two catties, and the rest will be hidden in the cabin, which is too much gunpowder. As for the water and food, I forget it, I will eat enough for March, and put the kimchi and tea first, General Deng said that it is useful to eat that with bleeding from the mouth, then wait until the bleeding is over to eat-Xiaoxiu came over. ”
Xiucai's name is Lin Xiao, and he was not admitted to Xiucai, not even a child, he has studied for a few years and is a descendant of the Lin family in the township, and he has always been obedient to Lin Manjue, and now he wears a cuirass to join the army, and when he heard this, he came out of the cannon window and sat aside and saluted: "Uncle." ”
"From today on, you find a notebook, write down every word I say, and two months later, you take them over a boat and go all the way north, even if you can't reach Luzon, you can still hold on to Guangdong and Fujian."
Lin Xiao asked, "Uncle, what about you?" ”
"If you don't find out the truth, I won't go back, you will find out the truth, and the handsome man will also have someone to guide the way, this visit to the enemy itself is a dead work, I knew before I went to sea, nine deaths and one life."
The nine deaths and one life he said are not real death or real life, but a change of life.
Lin Manjue put the 440 people under his command, and Chen Lan made a promise, when they found out the complete star map of Guam, the commander-in-chief, and the deployment of the enemy's troops on the island, and allowed 44 people to enter the naval martial arts hall, and each of them who came out of the martial arts hall would be able to serve as a first-class general of 1,000 generals and 1,000 households, and lead the fleet to be reused in the future.
Even if a person dies, the children of the meritorious service can be enrolled, and the brothers or nephews who have no children can be enrolled, which is forty-four people.
But Lin Manjue didn't want to tell his subordinates about this, all this will be known when they go back, he waved his hand and said: "The fishing nets and fishing gear are complete, there are enemy ships patrolling on the eighth day of landing on the island, and the next time you see enemy ships, you will know their patrol intervals." ”
"There are also knives and axes, and the wood cut in the past few days is enough to make a few small rafts, and the boats that are put down on the boats are picked to fish along the coast when the enemy army is not patrolling, and sixty people who are good at bows and crossbows are drawn to go into the mountains to hunt, do not use guns, there are only twenty bows and crossbows in the baggage, what can be hit is nothing, if you can't hit it, pick wild fruits, and find the water along the way."
"The arrows were picked up, there were less than a thousand, and the thing was gone when it ran out."
When the shaft of the arrow is gone, they can sharpen it again, and when the cluster of arrows is gone, they can't hammer it out with their hands.
"The trick is to find out the enemy's situation, Guam is not big, it only takes a day to sail from the west of the island to the east of the island, first find out the surrounding three miles, and then make follow-up plans."
Speaking of this, Lin Manjue's face under the darkness of the night was a little ruthless, he looked around at the sentinels on the left and right, and said, "We may not die here, as long as we hide ourselves first, these things ...... You can grab it! ”
Why did he come to visit Guam? Because this is a large battalion on the front line of Xiyi, there are ships and enemy troops here, so there must be a huge amount of grain, grass and ordnance, and this kind of thing can be guessed by any junior officer.
And compared to the Xiyi army, even any army in the world, including the Ming Dynasty, Lin Manjue didn't believe that any of them could have more guns and firearms than them under the same strength.
Three hundred and seventy-six men, three hundred and seventy guns, ninety-four guns, who can have so many firearms and equipment?
It's Chen Erye's personal team, it's just that, the cannon is not as many as them, after all, no neurotic has to unload all the ship's guns as a last resort.
However, things did not go as smoothly as Lin Manjue had imagined, and on the 12th of their landing, several search teams of American native soldiers led by Spanish lieutenants returned from the northern part of the island, roughly swept the eastern coast of the island where they were located, and then swept south.
Relying on the scouts to discover it early, the soldiers of Lin Manjue's battalion who were hiding in the cabin and the sand narrowly escaped this search, which was in response to Deng Zilong's divination, and there was no danger.
With the help of the telescopes sticking out of the cabin, a quick glance from a distance made Lin Manjue see their enemies clearly, in the hot and humid tropical rainforest, led by a few Xiyi whites, there was a group of unusually strong Indian warriors with wooden and stone weapons, shirtless or wearing strange cotton clothes, and the complexion of the complexion.
He saw someone wearing a tiger head mask.
But this also cast a haze on Lin Manjue's originally confident heart, and the enemy army on the island had already suspected that they had landed on the island!
