Chapter 90: Chicken
Lin Manjue did not wait to be killed.
The pursuit began in the evening, and two hundred Ming warriors in full gear were armoured, armed with long knives and axes, and spears with guns, carrying three days' worth of food and water, and pursued by the experienced scouts towards a search party that had searched south for their tracks an hour earlier.
At the same time, several tracking teams of ten soldiers also headed for the other search teams, who wanted to annihilate them on the south side of the island and draw the army to the south of the island by means of a sound attack from east to west.
The southern part of Guam is not a good place, and the first thing Lin Manjue wanted to land on during the voyage around the island was the southern part of Guam, but from the sea, there were high mountains and cliffs everywhere, and the inaccessible places were inaccessible.
It seems safe, but there is also not much room for manoeuvre, and the experience of protecting the people at the junction of the three provinces has made Lin Manjue well versed in pursuit and attack, and he is also very clear about his situation.
But now, the situation is reversed.
He led his troops through the rainforest until night was approaching, watching the enemy find a cave, and after entering the cave, the Xiyi lieutenant rushed out with a faster scream, and the ghost figure with an arm span of several feet flew out of the hole, and the American warriors all prostrated and shouted, tossing for half an hour.
In the end, they used fire to drive away the ghosts in the cave, and entered the cave with their own dry food and melons and fruits, leaving a few people to stand guard around the bonfire.
The enemy's gesture in the face of the ghost as if worshipping a god caused Lin Manjue, who was crawling in the bushes, to lick his lips a little hungrily.
Just now, Mr. Lin, who had not found any other food on the island, saw the ghost flying out and was hungry.
He knew that it was a bat, since the Qin and Han dynasties, the bat and the blessing agreed, the bat often carved exquisite utensils, and the crane longevity peach as a companion, in the famous ink treasure. Although the bat was large, he was sure that no Akito had ever seen a bat with its wings outstretched like a teenager's outstretched arms.
But big is good.
Bigger meat.
When his subordinates asked him when he would attack, he pursed his lips and asked Xiucai Lin Xiao if he didn't have anything to do with cattle and horses, and he said, "Crane and Shou Tao, can you eat it?" β
It's all fairy stuff, and no one has ever eaten it.
Lin Xiao didn't have a telescope, the black shadow flashed in the firelight at night and made him a little scared, I don't know why my uncle asked, not to mention that the hunting team only found some bananas in the past few days, and everyone was hungry under the supply of grain and grass. β
Lin Manjue nodded, and without waiting for him to answer, Lin Xiao then asked with some panic, "Uncle, what is that ghost?" β
"It's like a bat, a big bat with a lot of meat." Lin Manjue asked with a very serious expression, "Can it be eaten?" β
"Yes!" Lin Xiao nodded anxiously when he heard a lot of meat, and was shocked to lose his voice and cautiously glanced at the cave in the distance, and then approached Lin Manjue and said: "Mr. Song Dongpo was demoted to Qiongzhou, and he once wrote a poem called Wenzi Youshan. β
"On the fifth day, I saw the pork, and on the tenth day, I met the yellow chicken porridge, and the natives ate potatoes and taro, and recommended to burn the bats with smoked rats. The old smell of honey and vomiting is slightly closer to the custom of shrimp and toad. β
"He said that bat meat is very similar to field chicken, field chicken is the toad, isn't there a field chicken cannon on our ship?"
Tianji Cannon is also another name for Tiger Squat Cannon, but it doesn't sound majestic enough, that is, they are called so when they are born in Xiangyong.
In fact, they hadn't eaten a field chicken, Lin Manjue couldn't understand what Xiucai was saying, but it sounded like it was enough to eat, he muttered to himself: "Field chicken, it should be no different from a chicken, a bat is a chicken, and you have chicken to eatβthe short hand touched it, and when he saw people on both sides of the cave, he fired a volley, and the spears were stabbed; The long gunners line up with me, and listen to my orders to round the hole! β
Lin Manjue's battalion did not look like a group of Ming troops at this time, in order to conceal their figures, they dismantled the helmet and the flag, a total of more than 300 people, and there was no need for so many banner orders, these people were all neighbors in the township, fighting side by side for two or three years, everyone was familiar with each other, and it had little impact on the combat effectiveness.
This is like letting Chen Mu return to the era of shouting military orders with five small flags, not only does the combat power have no effect, but it is also easy to use.
It was already dark, and several Spanish masters in the cave had already slept, and those who did not sleep lit kerosene lamps and wrote diaries, recording what they saw and heard on Guam, and writing down the story of conquering the black devil of the nameless cave and seizing the lair today.
The sound of the sword stabbing into the body was perfectly muffled in the night, and the American warrior who walked to the bush was suddenly stabbed in the chest by the sword from the toilet stab, followed by four or five hands rushing up from the bush, covering the mouth and dragging and dragging, and a person disappeared in an instant.
Lin Manjue took a sip, looked at the corpse lying at his feet, and scolded secretly: "Damn, I want to pee on Lao Tzu!" β
The little leader with a tiger's head at the entrance of the cave noticed something unusual, and his strong arm grabbed an obsidian stick and pointed it at the bushes in the woods, and his nose pierced with stone nose studs wrinkled fiercely, and then he saw a row of cuirass warriors coming out of the bushes, holding long guns and firing at the order of the sentinel.
Bang bang!
The smoke covered the bushes, and several American warriors roared in the sound of guns, but the huge force of the guns fired within thirty or forty paces almost knocked them over on the spot, and they fell to the ground before they could exert their due combat power.
Several figures protruded from the shrubs on both sides, and Ming warriors with spears rushed to both sides of the cave, holding guns in one hand and spears in the other, ambushing the periphery of the cave.
However, they obviously could not come in handy, the Spaniards in the cave did not expect that they would really be attacked on Guam, the aborigines of the island had long been conquered by them, although they were ordered to search for possible sailors of the Ming fleet on the island, but no one could have imagined that anyone would really be on the island.
This is like asking Chen Mu to order the Guangzhou Mansion to patrol the left and find Xiyi who landed in the Ming Dynasty, is it possible?
The army is on the side, which inspector will think that the enemy will be stupid enough to appear in Guangzhou Mansion.
Obviously, Lin Sanye is so stupid.
The battalions on both sides of the ambush were useless, Lin Manjue divided his 100 long gunmen into five sentinel rounds, approached the cave twenty or thirty steps and fired a volley into the cave, and the guns swept densely into the cave, and even the gunners themselves did not think about whether they could hit the enemy.
This is Xiang Yong's consistent tactics, in the battle with the bandits, Lin Manjue found that his subordinates were not accurate, and the rotation skills were not superb, and each team often only half of the people could fire according to the order, so he simply exchanged more soldiers for more coherent and dense firepower.
It's just that it used to be defending, but now it's attacking.
In just a short moment, a continuous sound of guns exploded outside the cave, accompanied by a large area of gunsmoke, which was the countless screams of the cave.
No one can survive under this kind of firepower, and four or five hundred guns were released, Lin Manjue's raised hand was put down, the sound of guns stopped abruptly, the smoke gradually dispersed, and the two hands that were always raised were put together, and the flag army ambushed outside the cave put two small flag arrows inside, and then carried the spear and handcuff into the hole.
Lin Manjue waved his hand and said: "Let the scouts patrol around, find other tracking teams, and then send someone back to make a big shot with a wooden fishing net, I will have chicken to eat!" β
