Chapter 1409 was rushed behind
The artillery stopped and the infantry began to get on.
When the Portuguese soldiers on the city wall were all blown away from their courage, the Ming army's infantry rushed very smoothly.
He went forward until a hundred meters without encountering any decent counterattack. The Portuguese soldiers on the city wall seemed to have been killed by bombing, and there was no movement.
A few muskets or a few feather arrows fell in front of the Ming army in scattered areas.
Under this fire, these Portuguese soldiers had no courage and could not organize a powerful counterattack.
The soldiers hugged their heads and said that God was too late, so they could not care about the Ming army below. Even the officers had forgotten how to fight. Now they only wanted to save their lives.
So the Ming army arrived at a distance of 100 meters from the city wall. At this distance, the soldiers of the First Brigade stopped and then held muskets to the city wall.
As long as someone shows off his head, he will face the attack of dozens of muskets.
A Portuguese soldier bravely stretched out his head, but as soon as he stretched out his head, he saw more than a dozen black holes pointing at him and pulling the trigger.
The Portuguese soldier's head suddenly turned into a broken watermelon, and then something with a red brain color scattered.
When the Portuguese soldiers next to him saw this result, they were so scared that no one dared to stretch their heads. The Ming army outside was so powerful that whoever stretched their heads would die.
These Portuguese soldiers came to Nanyang not to die, they just wanted to make a fortune.
In terms of fighting will, these Portuguese soldiers can only say that they can have some combat power while the wind is in. Once they enter the front wind, they will run faster than dogs.
That is, they can't escape now. If they were in the wild, I'm afraid that these Portuguese soldiers would have basically run away.
After the Ming army stopped at a distance of 100 meters from the city wall, two teams went up first. One team carried the ten ten-kilogram explosive packs, and the other team carried the shields that were large enough to cover the two people.
Just entered the bottom of the city wall.
Then he skillfully waved the engineer shovel, dug a hole and buried the explosive pack, and connected the fuse.
The action was very fast, and it could be said that it was done in one go.
Before the Portuguese on the city wall could react, the two blasting teams had already retreated.
In fact, the castle is still very strong. There are so many indigenous people from these Portuguese to exploit, so how strong the castle is, it will come from.
After the heavy artillery bombardment of the Ming army just now, no fatal losses were suffered, except that it was blown up to the ammunition depot at the beginning and some collapsed.
Therefore, when facing such a strong city wall, it is most appropriate to use this directional blast.
Ten minutes later, five explosion points, each with twenty kilograms of explosives, exploded together.
After a loud bang, the city wall was filled with smoke. The originally tall city wall suddenly collapsed, and the gap of the city wall, a total of twenty meters, was immediately exposed.
The Portuguese soldiers on the city wall only felt that their feet were shaking and then their bodies fell uncontrollably. The one who was not dead was so shocking that they cried.
Some of the rocks that exploded and flew up even hit the Ming army a hundred meters away. You can imagine how powerful it is.
Although the castle built by the Portuguese was very strong, it could not face so many intense explosives.
The Europa would not have thought that the black gunpowder that ended the rule of the Europa nobles. In the past, the nobles had knights and lived in a solid castle. The serfs outside were no match for the nobles, and they could not even enter the castle.
Later, when gunpowder was applied, the serfs had the means to break the castles of the nobles, thus breaking the dark rule of the nobles for thousands of years.
The Portuguese Governor could never have imagined that the solid castle he relied on was so vulnerable under the explosives of the Ming army.
However, the Governor was nowhere to be found at this time. After the storm just now, the Governor felt that something was wrong, so he ran away with his confidant.
He felt that the Ming army was too strong and he might not be able to defend the castle. Instead of waiting here for Sprofen to fight back, it would be better to go back with Sprofen first.
So the governor and a few confidants ran out from Ximen on horseback.
In this way, the Ming army successfully entered the castle from this gap.
The first echelon went up to capture the prisoners, but the second brigade coach of the second echelon was anxious. Seeing that the other person was going up, why didn't the battalion officer let him go too?
So the second brigade coach came to find the battalion officer.
But the camp officials felt that there seemed to be something wrong with it.
Did the Portuguese fail so quickly? Why did they feel that the enemy fell before they could exert force?
By the way! Where did the sprofen, who was blown so well, go?
Didn’t Wilson say that Sprofen and his Third Infantry Regiment are very powerful? I don’t feel that they are powerful.
At this time, the hot air balloon observer also sent back a message, that is, the number of Portuguese troops in the castle is far less than the expected 3,000 troops, at most one thousand.
The people sent to contact the Dutch army also came back, and the news they received made the battalion officer frown.
The Dutch camp was attacked, and when they went to see it, there were only less than a hundred corpses of ragged maggots left in the Dutch camp.
Moreover, the Dutch camps on both sides were attacked.
Who did it, the camp officer could understand without thinking about it, and it must be the one who disappeared.
The shadow of the tree of a man. Since this Sprofen is so famous, it will definitely not be so simple. But now it is like this, it means they are engaged in a conspiracy.
Just as the camp officer was thinking about where Sprofen was.
He had now led his army to intersperse and marched quickly overnight. They had reached the rear of the Ming army.
Looking at the Ming army's barracks not far away, Sprofen licked his scarlet lips.
The Ming army's barracks seemed to be unprepared. In fact, Slofen didn't know that the Ming army in the rear also had guard posts, but they were all secret posts.
Just as Sprofen entered within 500 meters, he secretly found Sprofen that was slowly approaching.
"Bang!"
"boom!"
A grenade was thrown out.
The battalion officer who was still thinking about where Sprofen had gone was reported, saying that a large number of enemy troops had just been discovered later.
The battalion officer suddenly started to sweat on his forehead. Fortunately, he arranged the defense behind him according to His Majesty's guidance, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
At this time, the camp officer had only one idea in his mind, that is, His Majesty is really a god, and he predicts the enemy first in everything.
