Chapter 872 This is not about paying compensation to cede territory, this is about borrowing money to change the map!

"You damn devils, you know how to sneak attack, don't run away if you can..." Eugen von Savoy gritted his teeth and shouted silently in his heart. But the Aztec in the woods ahead

The man still seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. He was not even willing to fire a shot, and was approached step by step by a group of Spaniards shouting slogans and holding guns.

It seems that those Aztecs who just planted bombs on the roadside and fired shots in the woods have shamelessly ran away again!

In fact, this method of shooting and changing places is nothing new to Eugen. In Austria, Bohemia and Hungary, there are also many warriors who believe in God who use this method to deal with all evil.

Tianfang believers. But warriors who believe in God will not use "enchanted" weapons to carry out sneak attacks - such as sugar bombs equipped with cable fuses!

This thing is so abominable. You don't need to light a fire when detonating it. You just need to pull the rope, so it is difficult to be found. And the devil believers who pull the rope can hide very far away. They will hide in the woods on the roadside.

Wait for the Spanish brigade to pass by or above the bomb before pulling the string... It's not too much to kill twenty or thirty people for one guy!

What's even more despicable is that they usually plant two bombs, one to blow up the front of the team and one to blow up the middle. And then they run away without counting how many people were killed?

In addition, these devil's believers are also equipped with a large number of rifled guns, and their marksmanship is excellent. They can fire and hit the target at a distance of three hundred yards!

As soon as a bomb on the roadside goes off, the ambush snipers will immediately shoot with rifled guns. And they will not shoot repeatedly, they will only shoot once and then run away... There are usually dozens or hundreds of snipers.

It's not a problem for Ztec gunmen to ambush and kill twenty or thirty people at once.

If both bombs exploded and hundreds of Aztec gunmen were ambushing them, Lieutenant General Eugen's men would lose at least dozens of people, if not hundreds more!

In addition to losing personnel, it will also waste time, severely damage the morale of the troops, and make Lieutenant General Eugen angry!

However, no matter how angry Lieutenant General Eugen was, he did not dare to launch an attack indiscriminately. He still had to counterattack step by step... Even if he knew that the enemy would escape, he had to deploy his troops first, then send out skirmishers to cover the position, and then deploy

Deploy the artillery and then open fire to bombard the woods where the Aztec snipers are hiding.

After a few rounds of bombardment, it was found that the enemy had no response, and then the musketeers formed a horizontal formation and approached the Aztec snipers entrenched in the woods. Then they fired a few rounds of volleys, and then launched a bayonet attack.

In the end, even if there was no enemy in the woods, the Spanish infantry who invaded the woods had to conduct a routine search. After ensuring that there were no Aztec ambush in the woods, he dared to move forward with the army.

If the Aztecs left an ambush deep in the woods, Lieutenant General Eugen would have to bite the bullet and command his troops to engage in a jungle battle with the Indian devils who are very familiar with the woods - the coast south of Curia Castle

The nearby climate is very humid, and the level of development is average. There are also large areas of dense jungle. This kind of terrain is very unfavorable for Eugen Savoy and his German officers... They can be in Europe.

I have never seen a tropical jungle, and I have never seen Tianfang cultists who attack with roadside bombs and rifled guns.

Perhaps because the attack occurred close to Fort Curia, the Aztecs who ambush did not want to fight. After killing less than a hundred Spanish imperial soldiers, they disappeared into the jungle.

Do you know where you went?

A cavalry messenger came on horseback, arrived in front of Eugen von Savoy, and reported loudly: "Your Majesty Lieutenant General, all the Aztecs have fled, and the officers and soldiers of the 12th Brigade of the Imperial Army have completely taken control.

The nearby woods...the road to Curia Castle is clear!"

Unobstructed?

Eugen Xin said: "Now the large group of people and horses are passing through, of course, it is unimpeded. But what about the subsequent supplies? Can it be unimpeded? If the supplies are transported by sea, will the fleet be attacked by the merchant navy?

In addition, it is so far away from the Valley of Mexico, and there are only a few lonely castles around it under the control of the Spanish Empire, which is unreliable. The situation faced by the Spanish Empire in this area is very similar to the Romans who went deep into the Teutonic Forest.

....If we cannot defeat the traitor Montezuma as soon as possible and frighten the nearby Indians, the consequences will be disastrous!"

Thinking of this, Eugen von Savoy put down his telescope, still looking motionlessly at the seemingly unfathomable woods not far away, and issued an order in a cold voice: "Order the 12th Brigade to firmly control the route to Curry.

The road to the sub-castle...the rest of the troops quickly pass through the forest area and must reach Fort Curia tonight!"

...

Deep in the forest of Fort Curia, in a village inhabited by "Indian savages," Jizhou Hou Su Zhanyang was sitting in a thatched house with Huang Feiyu, Minister of War of the Aztec Kingdom, using the dim light to look down.

Reports sent in by others, while opinions were exchanged with each other.

Although Huang Feiyu was an Aztec official, he was a Shang noble, and his behavior was now completely "Shang-style". He also married a petite Shang wife and lived a Shang life.

Living a noble life, one can naturally speak "business language" very fluently.

"Master Marquis," Huang Feiyu said to Su Zhanyang, "we have now controlled fifty-two indigenous villages and nineteen manors south of Kuria Fortress... eleven of them are hidden in the dense forest.

Or in the mountains, they are not controlled by the Spanish, but they hate the Spanish as much as the indigenous farmers and serfs. With their support, sooner or later we can get Fort Curia!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! At this point, he suddenly found Su Zhanyang sitting there, frowning slightly, motionless, as if he was listening to something?

Huang Feiyu also listened with his ears pricked up and found that the sound of gunfire, cannons and shouts had completely disappeared. So he said to Su Zhanyang: "Master Hou, it seems that the ambush is over... This one

The Spanish army should arrive at Fort Curia tonight. They don’t carry much supplies, but they have a lot of people, at least tens of thousands, and the consumption will be huge. As long as we can control the logistics lines of Fort Curia

, should be able to force them away quickly."

Su Zhanyang shook his head, "The Spaniards are not stupid enough to travel more than two thousand miles by land to transport supplies... They can take the sea route! Fort Curia is right on the seaside, and there is also a Port of Curia in Spain.

We have many people. And our navy does not have the ability to block the waterway. Even if the Ming Dynasty navy fails, it will not be able to completely block the waterway.

Moreover, Spain has sent tens of thousands of troops this time, and it seems that they want to fight a big war. I guess they will soon enter the gate of hell...Looking at this situation, there is a big war about to happen!"

Huang Feiyu smiled and said: "Suhou, with the Shang army behind us, even if the Spaniards send 100,000 troops, they can't do anything to us."

"Shang Fang's army?" Su Zhanyang glanced at Huang Feiyu, "Huang Fangbo, don't you know the details of our Shang Fang? If we could really bring out a large army... Mexico City would have been captured by now!"

Huang Feiyu is a noble of the Shang side, and he also personally participated in the "First Contact". Of course he knows the details of the Shang side... The national barbarians in this country add up to less than 500,000 yuan, but they have to defend a radius of ten thousand miles.

The vast territory was simply beyond their capabilities. However, they were still ambitious and wanted to capture the fertile prairie, so they had to divide a small half of the national population to form the Yin Family Khan Tribe and cross the Big Stone Mountain eastward to Texas.

And the hundreds of thousands of Chinese people who stayed on the Pacific coast had to engage in construction, dig for gold, and maintain the dignity of a Shang Dynasty. It was simply not enough - these hundreds of thousands of people included children.

There are only 60,000 real adults (including women) and only 30,000 men...and they are still scattered in Shangdu, Yindu, Xinchaoge, Haiyuan Mountain City, Xibo City, etc., and there are armies that can be gathered to fight

There are only three to four thousand at most. Even if we add field divisions (with the savages as the main force), we can only collect a mobile force of 8,000.

Therefore, once the Aztec Kingdom cannot hold on and collapses, the foundation of the Shang Fang Kingdom will probably be lost. Although the Shang Fang Kingdom only needs to recall the powerful Yin Jiahan tribe (although the Yin Jiahan tribe has a small population, but it

It is a nomadic tribe that can move in groups), which can withstand the Spanish attack and even counterattack into New Spain, but it is just a dream to enter the North American prairie.

Moreover, once the Shang Fang Kingdom enters a nationwide mobilization, production, construction, and gold mining will have to stop, which is very detrimental to the newly born Shang Fang Kingdom.

When Huang Feiyu heard what Su Zhanyang said, the smile on his face became even thicker. He seemed to have been waiting for the Marquis of Jizhou to say these words. He smiled and said: "Master Marquis, if the Shang side cannot send out soldiers, then only

A way to bring the Spanish who are attacking the gate of hell back to Mexico City."

"What can I do?" Su Zhanyang asked.

Huang Feiyu said: "Of course King Montezuma personally conquered Mexico City!"

Su Zhanyang was stunned: "What? Let Montezuma march to Mexico City? Is he that powerful?"

Huang Feiyu smiled and said: "Has the Marquis forgotten how King Montezuma entered the colony of New Andalucia? It can be said that he was empty-handed at that time. Except for the thousands of people we sent, he had nothing...

But didn't he still incite hundreds of thousands of Indians in the new Andalusia colony by not paying rent, not paying food and allocating land, and using slogans to expel the Spanish? What if he could lead two or three people this time?

The elite Aztec soldiers used the same slogan to seduce the Indians in New Spain. Are they afraid that there will be no Indians to eat pots of pulp to meet the king's army? Maybe his army was 20,000 when it left the gate of hell and arrived in Mexico.

The city is already worth two hundred thousand!"

"Ah, King Mengchuang..." Su Zhanyang stroked his forehead, "I actually forgot about this!" He paused and then said, "Uncle Huang Fang, how about this, let's go back to the gate of hell together, and suggest that Monte

King Zuma marched into Mexico City... Then you led people to assist King Montezuma and led an army of 20,000 to march towards Mexico City. I led the remaining troops and relied on reinforcements from the merchants and Aztec militia.

Persevere at the gate of hell."

"Okay!" Huang Feiyu nodded heavily, "Then let's quickly return to the Gate of Hell to see the king!"

...

Aztec Kingdom, the Gate of Hell.

When Su Zhanyang and Huang Feiyu arrived at the gate of hell day and night, the Aztec King Mengchuang was troubled by the fact that a large number of Spanish imperial troops and the legendary Christian Holy Spear arrived at Curia Castle!

Therefore, as soon as he saw Su Zhanyang and Huang Feiyu, who were coming after a long journey, he immediately said to them: "Oh no, I just received reliable news. The Spanish Emperor sent Archbishop Desumagala and Lieutenant General Eugen to lead 50,000 soldiers."

The army is coming to attack our Aztec country!"

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid," Su Zhanyang said with a confident look on his face, "I, the Great Shang Fang, have a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers...the advantage is mine!"

"But Archbishop Desumagala also invited the Holy Spear from Rome!"

"Holy hair?" Su Zhanyang was stunned, "The hair on a saint's body? What is its use?"

Huang Feiyu also looked indifferent, "It's just a hair, so I'm not afraid."

"It's not this hair, it's a spear that can be used to kill people, or it's a spear!" Montezuma explained, "This holy spear is also known as the Longinus Spear... It is stained with the blood of Jesus. It is said to be able to defeat the devil and is Catholic.

A magic weapon!

I didn’t expect that the Holy See would actually hand over such a treasure to Desumaraja... It seems that they spent a lot of money!"

It turns out that this Aztec king is not afraid of Eugen von Savoy's army, but the holy spear.

While talking, Montezuma asked again: "Suhou, do we have any magic weapon that can restrain the Holy Spear?"

"Yes, of course there is!" Su Zhanyang patted his chest and said, "How can it be possible that my big business doesn't have a magic weapon? I won't hide it from you, my family has a magic weapon!"

When Su Zhanyang said this, Montezuma also remembered that this Jizhou Hou Yimen was a relative of Su Daji... How could he not have a magic weapon?

He quickly asked: "Su Hou, can this magic weapon be...taken out and used?"

Su Zhanyang smiled and did not answer, but asked instead: "King of the Aztecs, have you ever thought about returning to your hometown and ruling over the Valley of Mexico?"

"Lord in the Valley of Mexico?" Montezuma's breathing quickened when he heard this.

This Valley of Mexico is not the same thing as the Aztec country he rules now... that is a great place to get rich and oily!

Seeing his expression, Huang Feiyu on the side smiled and said: "Now that Leopold I has made a desperate move and has taken out the Holy Spear, how many more troops can there be in Mexico City? Let's take this opportunity to divide the main force.

Bypass Fort Curia and go all the way south. While mobilizing the Indian untouchables, march towards Mexico City... At the same time, ask the merchants to march troops towards Mexico City from the north or northeast.
