1226 The old man crashed to death here
"What should I do? The Red-haired Japanese are so unscrupulous. No matter how much our people hide, they will definitely find them!"
"Yes, if we hide like this, we don't dare to fight back. Sooner or later something happens!"
"I see how they look. If they can't find anyone again, they will probably kill people!"
"Yes, they didn't treat us as human beings at all. If they hadn't been the leader of the country, they would have been beaten to death by them!"
“…”
Seeing them worried and saying worried words, Su Minggang was also very anxious. He thought for a while and said to them first: "Okay, don't be anxious, I'll contact the court to see. What the emperor said has sent someone to save us!"
After saying that, he entered the chat group.
The people present watched Su Minggang start to stare blankly, and with expectations, no one was waiting.
After waiting for a while, Su Minggang still didn't respond at all. At this moment, some people couldn't help it.
"We are far away in Batavia. Will the Emperor really send someone to save us?"
"Yes, this is the Dutch base camp. How many people do the imperial court have to send?"
"Why do I feel that this matter is a bit lingering? We are all unable to make ends meet in our hometown, so we came out to find some food. A poor and has no relatives who are officials. Will the emperor really care about us?"
“…”
Just as they were worriedly suspicious of everything, suddenly, a hurrying "clang" sound came from outside.
When everyone in the yard heard this, they stood up in shock. This was a warning night watchman outside, and when they encountered a situation, they rang the gong.
No one had the heart and no time to wait for Su Minggang to speak, and they rushed out of the yard one after another. At this time, someone shouted anxiously with the sound of the gong: "The Red-haired Japanese are here, hide quickly!"
"Men come out and stop them for a while, and women hide!"
“…”
The Ming people's residence suddenly became chaotic, and no one expected that the red-haired Japanese would come out after it became dark.
The men rushed out of the house and explained their families, and the scene was a bit messy.
"Damn the child, hide with your daughter!"
"Wife, don't clean up, go and hide quickly, people are the most important thing!"
“…”
At the entrance of the village, the men who arrived early blocked the road with their bodies and blocked a group of red-haired Japanese outside the village.
These red-haired Japanese were already angry and felt that they would definitely find a woman when they came over at night. Unexpectedly, before they could get close to the Ming people's residence, they could hear the sound of gongs, and these Eastern monkeys began to block the road and prevent them from entering.
They understood that if they delayed the time, the women would definitely hide again. So they took action against the man blocking the road without hesitation. At first, they punched and kicked, and even a few anxious people pulled out their knives and started stabbing people.
However, even so, the men at the intersection were gathering more and more, and no one retreated. Moreover, because of the blood, many men were angry. Instead of being stabbed to death like this, it would be better to fight with them!
However, more people still dare not take action. They all have a small family, so it doesn’t matter if they fight, but what should the family do? If these red-haired Japanese devils are touched, they will implicate their families tomorrow. At that time, all the Ming people may be killed by them. These red-haired Japanese devils are killing people in Nanyang without any scruples!
However, these red-haired Japanese either knew that they could not find the woman when they rushed in, or felt the anger gathered by many wise men. They finally retreated and went back cursing.
After a while of tossing, the Ming people's residence was finally restored to silence in the voice of anger and the sound of children and women crying in a low voice.
One of the people in the lead was missing and gathered again in Su Minggang's yard. Everyone was either angry or frustrated, with different expressions.
Among them, Su Minglun was worried about Su Minggang, "Uncle, I won't say that those who were injured by them, there are sixteen who were stabbed by them, and three of them may not be able to do it!"
Hearing this, someone finally couldn't help it. Before Su Minggang could speak, he said hatefully: "These red-haired Japanese don't treat us as human beings at all. We will die sooner or later in their hands. I want me to say, let's fight with them!"
"Yes, let them bully them, they will only become more aggressive. A few people die today and a few more tomorrow. If we go on, we will all die. It's better to fight with them and kill each one!"
"But, they have guns, cannons, knives and guns. What do we have? Even if we fight, how can we fight?" Someone expressed different opinions, and was a little depressed, obviously very pessimistic!
"Yes, we can only fight about one thousand people, but they, at least more than three thousand people, are all soldiers. How can they fight?" Some people agreed. There are about four thousand people in the Ming Dynasty, only about one thousand young and middle-aged people. Others are either masters and craftsmen, women and children, or those who are tired and have various disabilities and are sick cannot fight for life and death.
"If you don't fight, you will die sooner or later! It's better to kill them!"
"Yes, fight!"
"It doesn't matter if you don't have a wife or a child, but have you considered having a wife or a child?"
“…”
In the yard, there was a quarrel.
Su Minggang looked at these, patted the armrests of the chair with his hands, and said loudly: "Listen to me, don't make any noise, listen to me..."
After saying a few words, the people in the yard finally stopped talking, but their emotions were still there and they were a little excited.
Su Minggang looked at them and suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Don't worry, everyone, let me tell you a good news. The emperor sent someone to save us has arrived!"
As soon as they said this, the yard was very quiet. Everyone showed incredible or stared at Su Minggang in surprise. They seemed to be unable to believe that the emperor really had to send someone to save them?
It was still Su Minglun who was close to him that he came back to his senses first and asked in surprise: "Uncle, is it really here?"
Su Minggang smiled and nodded. For some reason, tears were already hanging on the corners of his eyes. "I told me to keep it secret. The emperor is indeed a golden word!"
He saw the bullying from the Red-haired Devils and was anxious, but he was powerless and could only watch it happen. Now, the emperor thousands of miles away fulfilled his promise and really sent someone to save them. Thinking that everyone could finally get rid of the dark days in the present, even if he had experienced too much, he still couldn't help but shed tears of excitement.
Or it was because he had experienced a lot that he realized that such rescue was really not easy! If he had not met a good emperor, such a thing would have never happened.
Hearing Su Minggang's confirmation, the people in the yard looked at each other with the help of the bright moonlight and saw each other's excitement. However, although Chengquan was also excited, he could still remain calm and asked first: "How many people have the emperor sent? It would be impossible if there were fewer people. We can't escape under the eyes of the Red-haired Japanese devils!"
When everyone heard this, the others nodded and agreed, then looked at Su Minggang with some concern and expectation, waiting for his answer.
They were all worried about how many people could be sent to such a distance when they were fighting against the enemy in Nanyang again.
After all, this is the base camp of the Red-haired Japanese. Although the main force of the Red-haired Japanese has already gone out, there are still about 3,000 troops, which is not a small number!
After hearing this, Su Minggang wiped his tears and replied with a smile: "Three warships brought about 2,000 Marines, and they have logged in. It is estimated that they will arrive near Batavia at noon tomorrow. We will pick them up in the evening!"
"So many?" Cheng Quan said in surprise. As a pirate, he naturally knew that the three warships were going to transport 2,000 people, and this must be a very large warship. If it were in the Liuxiang Pirate Group, it would be the main warship. Oh, not only, even among the Red-haired Japanese warships, it would be considered large.
On the other hand, Su Minglun excitedly said: "Uncle, what is the Marine Corps? I've been here for so long, why have I never heard of it before?"
Hearing this, the others who had lost their burdens in their hearts were also very curious and asked them one after another. Even Cheng Quan was very curious. What kind of Marine Corps sounded so strange!
After hearing this, Su Minggang clasped his fists and rushed to the direction of the Ming Dynasty, showing his gratitude to show his salute, and then answered them: "After the emperor knew about our situation, he specially issued an order to set up an army for Zheng Dashui to rescue us. He has been training how to save us since last year. The emperor called it the Marine Corps, and it seems that there is another name, called the Special Forces. From a literal sense, it seems to belong to the navy, but it is used for war on land!"
Hearing this, the people in the yard knew that the emperor was thinking about them so much, and they were all excited to speak. Such an emperor who loved the people had never heard of it! No, it was not that he had never heard of it, but that since the emperor was there, there had never been such an emperor!
After a while, Cheng Quan first came to his senses. He asked in a little puzzled manner: "Isn't it a navy? Why is the emperor called the navy?"
"Then I don't know, that's what the emperor calls me anyway." Su Minggang didn't know, so he could only say his own opinion, "I feel that the navy is going to change. The navy sounds so nice, it's much more majestic than the navy!"
After hearing this, Chengquan showed a thoughtful expression on his face.
"Uncle, it's not the time to talk about this!" Su Minglun was not interested in this and interrupted, "This... this Marine Corps will be here tomorrow. Let's discuss what we should do, right?"
After hearing this, Su Minggang nodded quickly and said, "Yes, yes, this matter is the most important. You wait first, I will contact you and tell me the situation so as not to have any problems!"
After saying that, he entered daze mode again.
However, this time, the people in the yard were not as uneasy as before. They were all very excited. After waiting for a while, they whispered to each other. They could feel the excitement of each other!
Before, they felt that the hope of returning to their hometown in this life was so vague. But at this moment, they were already sure that in the near future, they would definitely be able to return to their hometown, return to their hometown that they had been away for a long time, and see their dream-ridden family!
"Your house seems to be not far from my house. It's almost fifty miles away. How about I'll visit your house when I return to Daming?"
"Okay, I remember that there is an old banyan tree at the entrance of my hometown village. It is very big and can be seen from a distance. When you see the banyan tree, you can see my home, my home!"
“…”
As Chengquan listened to their words, he also thought of his old mother in his mind. He felt his nose was a little sore, and his hair should be white, right? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shout in his heart: "Mom, unfilial one is about to go home!"
After a while, Su Minggang came to his senses and said to them with a little excitement: "I have contacted the Marine Corps. It is Zheng Dashuai's younger brother who is here to save us by the order of the saint..."
Zheng Zhilong's reputation may be even more resonant in Nanyang, especially among those who seek life at sea, than the governor Sun Chuanting. Hearing that it was his younger brother who led the army, they couldn't help but feel excited again.
"The emperor has already understood our situation. Let us endure it for a day and be silenced with the Red-haired Japanese. After tomorrow it will be time to take revenge." Su Minggang continued to whisper, "For specific battles, I will follow General Zheng's orders and tell you again. But there is one thing, in order to prevent people from talking, don't tell me about the court's reinforcements first, just a few of us know."
Everyone in the yard nodded and replied excitedly: 'Of course!'
So the people in the yard did not disperse until late at night. However, instead of resting, they knocked on the door and whispered to the door.
As soon as the sky was dawn, almost all the Ming people gathered together. Last night, the three people who were seriously injured did not survive and died.
In a clearing area where the residence was, there were three bodies standing in front of them, and behind them were the families of the deceased and their compatriots.
After lit three incense sticks, Su Minggang said solemnly: "You have spirits in heaven, bless us, soon, we will all go home!"
It is solemn and solemn, and it seems to be swearing.
After saying that, he turned around and looked at the Red-haired Japanese who rushed over with live ammunition from afar. Su Minggang withdrew his gaze and shouted to the person in front of him: "No matter what, you must believe in my arrangements. After today, you cannot satisfy you. I will be killed here!"
His arrangements were ordered overnight yesterday. Many people couldn't understand, but there was no way to keep them confidential, so there was no need to wait for a long time anyway.
