Chapter 3062

The mouth of the Chicano River on the east coast of the bay was the default boundary line between Spanish and Haihan controlled areas a few days ago, but now it has been occupied by the Haihan army.

Wang Anbang led a large group of people to guard here, responsible for collecting the Spanish prisoners of war who came ashore to surrender.

The Haihan Army prepared a large number of shackles and ropes in advance, as well as a specialized Spanish translator holding a tin trumpet to remind the prisoners to put down their weapons and line up to land ashore. Those who resisted or tried to escape would be killed on the spot.

For the Spaniards who were lucky enough to survive the fierce battle, they had no other choice at this time. There were many Haihan warships patrolling back and forth on the nearby sea. The small boats they were in had nowhere to escape and could only follow the sea.

According to the instructions given by the Han warships, the boat was rowed to the designated place and docked to surrender.

Every time a person came ashore, Haihan soldiers came forward and handcuffed his hands behind his back. Then, ten prisoners were divided into teams and tied together with ropes to prevent escape.

Occasionally, there would be a few whining and unwilling thorns, and they would be beaten with sticks until they fell to the ground and wailed. However, the soldiers would not kill them because their superiors had expressly prohibited killing prisoners without reason.

Military doctors were even sent over to treat the injuries of these prisoners.

Looking at these disgraced guys in front of him, Wang Anbang didn't have any sympathy in his heart. If he didn't need to keep these prisoners of war as coolies, he wouldn't care about the lives of these people.

The military doctor wearing a white armband and examining the wounds of the prisoners of war was one of Morgan's many apprentices. He was a few years older than Wang Anbang. However, this apprentice was an art thrower and became a disciple of Morgan much later than Wang Anbang.

, so the younger Wang Anbang is actually his senior brother.

"Junior Brother Zhang, those who are seriously injured and cannot be saved, please leave them alone and don't waste our things." Wang Anbang reminded.

The military doctor surnamed Zhang hesitated slightly, then nodded, indicating that he would act as he wished.

Almost all the various wound medicines and medical equipment used by military doctors are shipped from China thousands of miles away, and their value is difficult to calculate in terms of money. It is fine to use these precious medicines on your own people, but they must be used for

Wang Anbang was really reluctant to treat these foreign prisoners of war.

However, his attention was soon attracted by a newly arrived boat of prisoners, because there was actually a man who looked like an officer on the boat, who was tied up behind his back and carried ashore by other prisoners.

Wang Anbang called the translator and asked him to quickly ask what was going on.

The unlucky guy who was tied up by his own people was DeSantis who suffered a mutiny on the San Carlos.

DeSantis had imagined various scenarios before the war, but he never thought that he would fall into a mutiny during the battle. And those sailors, who were usually humble and humble, dared to mutiny at such a critical time, he couldn't help but feel a little bit

I wonder if there are Haihan spies on board.

After Wang Anbang learned of DeSantis's identity, he curiously came closer to look at the Spanish officer, and then called the military doctor over and asked him to check DeSantis's physical condition.

A senior officer like this cannot just be thrown into a pile of prisoners of war. The information DeSantis possesses must be extremely valuable to Haihan, and it must be carefully examined to understand it.

As for the sailors who tied up DeSantis and sent him to surrender, although they did not receive any special treatment for the time being, Wang Anbang told them that they would be freed as soon as possible after the war and would not demote them into slaves.

In the afternoon of that day, the battlefield was cleaned up, and the statistics of the results were basically summarized. In this battle, the Spanish fleet invested a total of 22 ships, with a total of more than 1,700 sailors. After the war, more than 900 people were captured, and the remaining

Either died in battle or disappeared.

Even if you are lucky enough to swim ashore, the east and south sides of the bay are the territories of Haihan and local indigenous tribes respectively. Without transportation and supplies, the possibility of escaping from San Diego Bay is slim.

As for the Spanish ships participating in the war, except for the part that had capsized and sunk in the bay, the remaining ships also suffered varying degrees of damage. The Haihan Army could only drag a few of the ships that could still move to the coast and stranded them.

, unload the materials on the ship, and then check whether the damage to the hull is worth repairing.

In order to confirm the identity of DeSantis, the local magistrate Aragones was also specially invited. He had cooperated with Haihan's battle plan before, and his credibility was obviously much higher than that of the sailors who launched the mutiny.

.

Aragones did not expect that Haihan would capture DeSantis so smoothly. From his standpoint, he did not want to meet DeSantis again. After all, the destruction of this fleet was inseparable from him.

relationship.

Sure enough, the moment DeSantis saw Aragones appear, he immediately became excited and his eyes seemed to be on fire. If there were not two Haihan soldiers holding him down, one on the left and one on the right, they would probably rush over and bite him.

A mouthful of Aragonese.

Although DeSantis could not move, he still stared at Aragones and cursed. Although most of the people present did not understand Spanish, they could roughly guess the content of his curse just by looking at DeSantis's reaction.

How intense it was.

Aragones showed no expression and did not respond to DeSantis. He just nodded to Morgan to confirm DeSantis' identity.

Morgan asked Aragones: "Don't you have anything to say to him?"

Aragones shook his head and said: "There is no point in saying anything now. What should be said has been said before the war started."

Aragones had repeatedly asked DeSantis to take action. Even if he could not defeat Haihan, he should try to divert his fleet away from San Diego Bay to reduce pressure on local colonial settlements.

But DeSantis was intent on waiting for the perfect fighter plane to appear and turned a deaf ear to Aragones's request. The fleet has been standing still, and the expectations of the local people have slowly evaporated, and support has gradually turned into resistance.

After witnessing today's sea battle with his own eyes, Aragones was even more certain that no matter what tactics DeSantis adopted, he would ultimately be defeated on the battlefield. Since his original judgment was correct, this fleet could not escape.

Faced with the fate of destruction, he no longer felt guilty about using everything he had in exchange for the safety of local Spanish immigrants.

But now that Aragones' last reliance is gone, how the situation will develop next depends on whether Heihan will keep its pre-war promise. If Morgan goes back on his word and does not follow the agreement reached by the two parties before the war, then

Aragones was unable to offer any resistance at all.
