Being backward and ignorant does not mean being stupid.

The two small Francos and musketeers on the northern wall were suppressed by the tiger squat cannons, which greatly reduced their firepower, and the Spaniards in the wooden village had to divide their manpower to guard against the Ming army from the western coast, and they were unable to suppress the large number of aborigines.

Even if they don't receive Magui's signal, they will still seize this opportunity to attack Muzhai.

Axes and spears set up several ladders to climb on the wall, and when the aborigines climbed into the wooden village, in less than a moment, the aborigines opened the gate of the village and continued to carry everything they could, and then burned the wooden village.

They cheered and danced, and built a small mound structure next to the wooden village with a mound of earth, which looked like an altar.

Ma Gui did not try to enter the wooden village, and his men did not contribute much strength in this battle, but only took the opportunity of the Fran cannon to fire a few shots into the wooden village on the north wall of the wooden village.

And the damage caused by the Tiger Squat Cannon firing scattered seeds is limited, and he is also well aware of it.

He didn't care about the Spaniards' spoils, as long as the Spaniards' camp disappeared from the land, his purpose would be achieved.

Compared with the spoils of war, Magui cared more about what these aborigines thought of the Ming army.

It didn't take long for some aborigines to slowly surround them, led by a man wearing a large eagle feather crown, a black and red face on his face, and two rows of clothes on his chest made of long ox bones, handing over the bow and arrows to his subordinates at an interval of dozens of steps, and walking towards Magui and the others with proud strides.

Behind him, someone was holding a draped blanket with several gold nuggets the size of pebbles.

At the signal of the chief, the aboriginal soldiers held a blanket painted with lifelike fish and birds and presented it to Magui.

The leader said a few words in his mouth, and seeing that Magui didn't understand, he sighed a little helplessly, and finally raised his hand to touch his chest, and repeated a few of the same syllables slowly and seriously.

Ma Gui turned his head to Ma Jin and said, "Is he talking about the name, what is it, fighting, fighting for the rabbit?" ”

Ma Jin also repeated this syllable several times, and finally said firmly: "Zheng Tu! Town Kansai! ”

This makes Ma Gui choke enough, Zheng Tu, isn't it the town of Guanxi in the Water Margin.

Although this name was not very auspicious when he met Luda, Magui did not have the habit of being a good teacher, and he did not want to change his name.

"Okay, Zheng Tu, I'm Magui." He estimated that he told Zhen Guanxi that he was an official worshipping the imperial court, but he didn't understand it, so he simply omitted this introduction process, pointed to the emperor Ming Qi behind him and said: "Ming, we are Ming, yes, Ming army." ”

The two of them talked with each other for a long time, and Ma Gui didn't know if Zhen Guanxi had figured out what his name was, anyway, it was interesting to learn from each other to talk.

Not only did he take all the pieces of gold, but he also had the generous linen rug of linen, but he regarded it as a bargain, and they had passed through so many tribes that they were familiar with bartering with raising their hands.

A handcuff, a small bag of gunpowder, and dozens of lead pellets were handed over to Zhen Guanxi under Ma Gui's instructions, and in addition, he also asked several bird guns to demonstrate to Zheng Tu how to use firearms.

As for the two sets of Ming army-style cloth iron armor and a Mingzi flag, they are Ma Gui's personal gifts.

Although Ma Zongbing did have a lot of armaments under his command, and his subordinates left a huge amount of weapons and armor after a large number of non-combat attrition, those things were not carried with the ship, so they could not give anything good, but they had enough ingenuity.

A large tree was cut down by the Jurchens, and then it was split into several sections, and each section was split in the center to take out the arm-thick cannon chamber and medicine hole, and after the rope was tied, it became several improvised wooden cannons.

He poured a pound of gunpowder, picked up a stone of similar size, inserted a medicine line and blasted it towards the trunk of a tree more than twenty paces away.

Either because the pine wood was soft or because there was not much charge, the wooden cannon was like a big gun, not only did it not break apart, but it also smashed deep holes in the trunks of trees not far away.

When Ma Gui's subordinates lifted a few wooden cannons, a barrel of gunpowder, and a wooden spoon containing nearly a pound of medicine and put them in front of Zheng Tu, the faces of the aboriginal chiefs who already had the nickname in the hearts of the generals of the Ming army became very strange.

Everybody feels this way, right? It's like opening the Ming Kingdom gift package, and giving a few pieces of gold is obviously as a reward for hiring them to bombard the Spaniards with powerful weapons, but it turns out that it is given to guns, armor, and at the end, a few cannons.

All this is too new for Zheng Tu.

'How can this tribe that claims to be Ming look like a big fool?' ’

This is the first time that Zheng Tu has led a tribal expedition to defeat an invader who built a house in his territory, and now another invader has come, but these guys don't look like an invasion, what are they going to do?

Seeing that Ma Gui kept pointing to the south and saying something he didn't understand, Zheng Tu first pointed to the snow-capped mountains in the far north, then pointed to the mountains at the end of his eyes, and then pointed to himself, repeating again and again: "Zheng Tu." ”

Ma Gui probably understood, and said to the left and right: "From this mountain to that mountain is their territory, it seems that this battle was fought by them to regain the lost territory, and there is no intention to continue south." ”

There were not enough horses, nor oxen or donkeys to carry them, and their range of action was so great that it seemed to be a good idea to expect them to continue southward to seize the land occupied by the Spaniards.

Ma Gui clenched his fists and arched his hands, leaving two clever ones to follow Zheng Tu's side, he pointed to the subordinates he left, and then pointed to the sea in the northwest, and said, "Ma Gui." ”

Zheng Tu did the same, and also sent two young men to follow Ma Gui, and pointed to the ground under his feet, and said, "Zheng Tu! ”

Just as Magui was about to say goodbye and leave, the aborigines who accepted the captives suddenly broke out in a commotion.

Magui had always been curious about Zheng Tu's tribe rescuing these slaved compatriots, some of whom were apparently from Zheng Tu's tribe, who had rejoined the tribe at the beginning of the battle.

But more people look the same, but they are not from the Zheng Tu tribe, many of them want to run but can't run away, and after being captured, they are tied up and dragged again, and it seems that they just change places to be prisoners.

The commotion began with a slave wearing a painted deer blanket, a man who looked to be over forty years old, but the children who followed him were only in their teens, probably just looking older for their work, but were actually in their thirties, and when his blanket was ripped away by Zheng Tu's men, large patches of pustules were found on him.

On the forehead, face, arms, abdomen, and back, there were pustules everywhere under the brown-yellow skin, some of which had been broken by the rough action of tearing off the blanket, and looked hideous and terrifying, and the people were also scratching towards them weakly, but the natives quickly screamed and fled as if they were fleeing the plague.

This is the plague.

Ma Gui can no longer be familiar with it, this is a symptom of smallpox, and it is already a very serious smallpox, to this extent, he has not died, if this person is lucky enough, it is very likely that he will survive in the future.

In Zheng Tu's eyes, Ma Gui saw fear.

He realized that this was an opportunity to show his strength to the natives, and raised his feet to walk over there, and at this moment he was blocked by Zheng Tu's powerful arm, and even if he couldn't understand words, he could see the compassion and determination in Zheng Tu's eyes.

Ma Gui smiled, he shook his head, and said in a firm tone: "You don't know, what we have done to defeat the pox poison, it can't hurt us." ”
