Time back to late last night, from yesterday afternoon to late at night, no, it should be said that it was the early morning of the next day, at the beginning of the second hour, Lei Yousheng and their team of 300 people held out in the continuous attack of 2,000 people in Hongtang.

In the meantime, the high-intensity, Dutch sailors, who were walking on the edge of life and death, were in a state of euphoria. However, after all, people are not machines, and no one can be in this state of mental excitement and high-intensity physical labor for several hours in a row.

When the Dutch could not even afford to eat dinner, and could only look at the gap and hurriedly chew a few mouthfuls of dry food to wrap their stomachs, defeat became inevitable, and the only question was when the Dutch would collapse.

"My compatriots, it is a great honour to have experienced this splendid battle with you, you have not tarnished the heroic integrity of our great Dutchman, and the strong fighting spirit and fighting spirit you have displayed today are enough to put the soldiers of the Kingdom of England and France to shame." In the fortress, Lei Yaosheng took advantage of the rare opportunity to greet the remaining team of less than 100 people to talk.

There are more than 300 people, and there are less than 100 people left in the fight so far, and the hardships can be imagined, and now the soldiers here are all wounded, even Lei Yousheng, who is the 'commander', has a wound on his arm and thigh that was cut by a bow and arrow, and now as long as he moves, he will feel unbearable pain.

In the eyes of the Dutch sailors at this time, the Dutch sailors were useless, and if they had this time, why not leave them to rest and rest, and all of them were now basically like falling apart, slumped on the ground like a puddle of mud.

These are not important, the most important thing is that everyone's mood is not only depressed, but also quite pessimistic, and no one believes that they will be able to hold out until Lai Qichen and them come back to help.

"I also know that what you want to do most now is probably to find a good place to rest, but I think what I want to say next is related to everyone's life safety, so I found this opportunity to discuss with you." Lei Yousheng saw the impatient expressions on everyone's faces, but he also had to continue the conversation: "As I said just now, everyone's heroic performance is worthy of our motherland and Commander Lai Qichen. Therefore, the war has reached the point where it is time for everyone to think about their own lives! ”

Hearing this, many Dutch sailors who were quick to turn their brains had almost understood what Lei Josheng was going to say next.

Unlike the cultural background of China, Westerners are not averse to surrender, which is not a warrior in the eyes of the Ming people.

Because there are few Westerners, and many of them are captured or exterminated after a battle, and there is rarely a fixed lord and the like in the middle of the entire aristocracy, so although their Westerners' chivalry pays attention to loyalty and faith, there is no saying that they cannot surrender.

"The battle has been fought so far, in fact, there is no need to continue fighting, and in addition to unnecessary sacrifices, we can't actually give the other side more obstacles. Therefore, I decided to wait until after this conversation, and then send someone to raise the white flag and surrender to the Hongtang people outside the fortress! Although the word surrender came out of his mouth, in fact, how could the pain in his heart dissipate in the slightest because of this.

Silence, deathly silence, the Dutch sailors who were paralyzed in the field, none of them were willing to pay for the lives of more than 200 comrades, and in the end they got such an ending, which meant that everyone's sacrifice before was in vain, and there was no meaning.

But everyone didn't dare to be angry at this moment, and really rejected Lei Yosheng's suggestion, and put their own and his companions' lives to fill this hopeless place.

In the end, the silence was broken, but it was Hongtang's soldiers who once again rushed towards Hongcheng Fortress, forcing everyone to continue to hold on to keep the enemy out of the fortress.

Surrender or not, it depends on whether everyone can hold this wave of fierce siege battles in Hongtang, otherwise everything else is just empty talk.

When Lei Yaosheng sent people to raise the white flag and wave it at the Hongtang soldiers underground, the surviving sailors in the fortress were all relieved in addition to their loss and sadness, at least their lives were saved.

The next thing was very simple, when Lei Yousheng's group of people were escorted to Wu Daofu and Wu Juren, at the same time, the members of the Military Aircraft Department who gathered together from the three departments of Hongtang Whale, Shark and Leopard also sent a detailed plan.

At this time, there was still half an hour before dawn, and when Wu Daofu and Wu Juren got this plan, they were also shocked by this whimsical but feasible plan.

In the end, Wu Juren was holding that even if this plan was not successful, it would not have any other bad effects on the Hongcheng Fortress that they had already occupied; On the contrary, if this plan can be successful, then what Wu Juren and Wu Daofu have gained will not be idle.

This harvest is so attractive and attractive that both Wu Juren and Wu Daofu decided to implement this plan carefully formulated by the three departments of Hongtang and dozens of people because of this gain.

While the enemy was still on the way back, Wu Daofu and Wu Juren cleaned up the battlefield in Hongcheng Fortress, and on the other hand, according to the planned measures, they hurriedly dug a lot of trenches under and around the walls of Hongcheng Fortress, as a cover for the team members to avoid enemy artillery fire when the battle began.

The warships that the enemy sent to ventilate the news were deliberately released by Wu Daofu and them, and Wu Daofu, who was too familiar with the distance between Bengang and Magong Island, did not need to think carefully to roughly estimate the earliest time for the Dutch to return to help.

Therefore, the Dutch thought that they had not been discovered by Wu Daofu and them, and how did they know that the people of Hongtang had already calculated the approximate time when the Dutch appeared, and then as long as they paid a little attention, the traces of the Dutch were completely exposed to the surveillance of Hongtang's fleet.

In the end, under the concerted operation and acting skills of the members of Hongtang, they panicked and returned to help, thinking that they were very careful, but in fact, the Dutch, who were worried and worried, where could they maintain their true sense of normalcy and urgency, and obediently fell into the trap set by Wu Daofu and them.
