Chapter 351 Difficult decision(1/2)
From afar, you can see the mast of the warship.
In the cockpit of the battleship, a man in a gorgeous robe was looking at the land ahead with a binocular telescope.
"Huh?" The man exclaimed lightly, his tone full of doubt.
"What's wrong, patriarch?" A man in armor bent over and asked curiously.
"It seems that there is a war there. It should be the natives attacking the Holy Guards we left behind, and the Holy Ship No. 7 seemed to be stranded." said the man known as the Patriarch.
When the man in the armor next to him heard this, he immediately said, "Patriarch, I immediately let the ship go forward at full speed to support the vanguard!"
"Don't panic, be calm. If they can't hold on for a few months, they will probably be beaten down long ago. Be calm in everything. Your frivolous character can never be changed. Learn more from me!" The patriarch put down his telescope and said.
The man in the armor immediately nodded and bowed to accept the patriarch's opinion.
At this moment, Tongshu was also watching the five battleships with a telescope in a place that would not be discovered by the warships.
However, what he didn't understand was that these warships had not discovered the war here.
Among the previous batch of confiscated spoils, there were telescopes. Although they did not see clearly without the telescopes made by Hwaseong, at least they have discovered the situation here, so why haven’t they accelerated?
Logically speaking, if you find that your soldiers are being besieged, you should speed up to support them no matter what. It is not reasonable to still sail like this slowly.
Did the other party find the ambush he prepared? This is impossible, and there is no mistake in any link. Even the soldiers who play the Holy Guards have whitened their faces with white gray, their hair dyed, and their bodies are dirty. Even if they stand in front of them, they may not be able to tell who is who. How can they tell who is who is who is so far away?
Although I don't understand and a feeling of uneasiness in my heart began to spread, the Tong Tree still ordered everything to be the same and stay still for the time being.
Finally, after waiting for a long time, these warships finally approached the coast.
The battle on the camp continues.
On the third generation warship, the man in the armor received a message and quickly turned around and said to the patriarch next to him: "Patriarch, you are so amazing! Fortunately, today you didn't move forward at full speed. It's still far from the beach. There are beaches in front of you. Who knew that there was a group of reefs in the middle. It was the first time I saw you in the sea for so many years. If you didn't let us slow down, maybe the ship exploring ahead would hit the reef here. You are really as expected!"
The patriarch knocked on the handle of the recliner with his left hand, shook a glass of red wine with his right hand, and said with a smug look: "Calm, calm, all this is within my expectations. Otherwise, how could I tell you not to speed up!"
After hearing this, the man in the armor next to him couldn't help but praise him.
And when they saw this scene on the tung tree on the high place, they sighed in annoyance.
The busy results of more than a month are completely useless.
All the stones that were blown up during this period were transported there. In order to avoid being washed away by the sea tide, underwater cement alone transported twenty ships from Huacheng, just to let the other party reduce one ship without combat before the war begins.
Who knew that the opposite side of him was like a prophet of the unknown, and did not speed up from beginning to end. Then he detected the reef underwater and calmly bypassed the first killer weapon.
The bad start made everyone nervous.
Then, in the right place, five warships lined up in a row and put down small boats, transporting people and supplies to the shore in batches. Of course, some of the ships were rowing towards the warship that was disguised as stranded by the tung trees and the others.
"What the hell is Jack and the others doing? After working here for so long, even a dock has not been repaired, and even a group of natives nearby have not been killed. This is too unreasonable!" The man in armor said angrily on the ship.
"Calm down, calm down. There must be a reason why they didn't do it well. The key to being able to predict things like God!" said the patriarch.
After hearing this, the man in the armor quickly said that what the patriarch taught him was.
In the Holy Lord Empire, the Pope's status is supreme, and under the Pope are the patriarch, the Metropolitan, the Cardinal, the Archbishop, the Bishop and the Priest.
Opening up a new continent is such an important thing, a person who does not have enough status cannot control the overall situation. However, if he has enough status, the Pope is worried that his status is unstable.
Therefore, after choosing, this patriarch who has a good temper and calms down and keeps health preservation at all times has become the best candidate.
If he will develop his own power and covet his position after he comes, then sending others will be the same result.
Therefore, even if you know nothing about maritime affairs, this patriarch is also the best candidate for the team leader this time.
The status is above ten thousand people under the Pope. He has a noble status and can dominate the overall situation. He has a simple personality and no desire for power. He has a low desire to control and will not interfere with the development of his soldiers and generals. As long as he stays here, he can drink red wine and play in the mountains and rivers every day. There will naturally be someone to arrange the rest. Such a person is simply the most suitable person to come to this new continent.
In addition to the necessary combat power and weapons, the five warships carry the most is human.
There are at least 3,000 people on each warship and five warships, carrying more than 16,000 people in total.
Four thousand of them were soldiers, and the rest were all craftsmen from all walks of life.
After all, judging from the news brought back by the warship, this continent is a virgin land without any development.
It only takes five thousand people to sweep across the continent and capture all the ugly natives as slaves.
Therefore, in addition to the 4,000 soldiers, they carried as many craftsmen from all walks of life as possible, in order to develop this continent as soon as possible, mining mineral resources, plant resources and biological resources.
There are three thousand people on a boat and they have to carry various tools. It is conceivable what kind of life these people have lived on the boat in the past two or three months.
Every day, I squeezed into the dark cabin with others, and it is extremely difficult to even turn over while sleeping.
The only thing to eat is compressed biscuits soaked in water, and they have to be eaten in batches. After all, in order to bring more people, the canteen of the modified warship can only accommodate forty people at a time.
It can be said that the canteens on these five ships are full of every moment.
After all, compared to the crowded and dark cabin, like a confinement room, the air in the canteen seems to contain something called freedom.
After sailing at sea for more than two months like this, at least 80% of these recruited craftsmen were replaced with depression or other mental illnesses, and the mortality rate was as high as one in ten.
It can be said that there were more than a thousand dead craftsmen along the way.
At the beginning, every time someone died, these craftsmen who were stuffed into the cabin felt sad.
But later on, every time someone died, they would cheer for several minutes.
Because one person dies, it means that the sleeping place is a little more spacious, and it will not be crowded with others like canned sardines day and night.
In this case, when I heard that I had arrived at the destination and had to start getting off the boat, these craftsmen were almost crazy.
He rushed out to the deck with great difficulty.
Some of the unlucky ones were squeezed over, then stepped on them, from a living person, and finally stepped into meat paste.
After getting on the deck, I breathed the fresh sea breeze, and saw the sun and the blue sky, each of these people burst into tears.
It’s not that they are moved, but that in the past two or three months, they have hardly seen the sun and are stinged by the sun.
Despite this, none of them could bear to close their eyes.
The sun and blue sky that used to be indifferent to them have now become the most beautiful picture.
The tung trees that observed these ships were all stunned when they watched the crowds rushing out of the cabin.
How many people were stuffed into these ships?
The boat doesn't look too big, how could so many people run out?
Soon, the deck was full of people, but there were still people rushing out from the cabin.
The tung tree wiped the cold sweat and swallowed, with only one thought in his mind.
There are so many enemies, so I'm in trouble now.
When there was no one standing on the deck, the people on the edge of the boat were finally squeezed into the sea.
After going into the sea, the people who were squeezed down became happier, paddling the water and swimming towards the shore cheerfully.
Seeing this scene, more and more people on the boat chose not to wait for the boat, but paddled towards the shore.
They were now reluctant to stay on the boat for a second.
Even though people were pulled into the water by killing crabs near the coast and some meat-eating fish, there were more and more people jumping down from the boat.
Looking at those crazy and desperate guys, Tongshu was really shocked.
"Does these people want to live?" Tongshu said.
He thought that even if he was desperate, the people in front of him seemed to be more than a hundred times more desperate than him.
But then again, why are they so anxious? There are at least a dozen small boats on each warship, and each small boat can bring ten people. One trip will cost more than one hundred people ashore. It won’t take long to get all of them? As for the risk of their lives to dive for such a little time?
Or is it that these people were anxious when they saw that there was a war on them and wanted to join the war quickly?
Thinking of this possibility, Tongshu couldn't help but shivered.
It is true that my warriors are much stronger than those from another continent, but no matter how strong they are, they are just flesh and blood. If they are cut by a knife, they will still be injured, bleeding and die.
If these people are desperate for life when fighting later, then their plan to divide the troops into two groups will be the stupidest behavior.
These people who stayed on the shore definitely cannot beat so many people who are desperate.
But then again, how many of these people are there? Why are there still people in the cabin still emerging?
Tongshu and the others were about to go crazy. They thought they were facing an army with few people and would perform a scene of breaking through the camp later.
When the camp was broken, the soldiers who played the Holy Guards would flee to the beach.
The "natives" behind them chased after them, making them afraid of being attacked, and they were unable to fire their guns, so they could only use warriors to help them.
In this way, the new soldiers who play the Holy Guard can rush into the enemy formation, kill them in a mess, and kill them indiscriminately.
The soldiers behind rushed forward and massacred their soldiers.
After the killing was over, everyone retreated to prevent their artillery from attacking, and outside the sea, their own warships were almost bound to surround them.
The cruiser that moved the artillery over, coupled with the high-explosive shells made by the Chinese arsenal, coupled with the harassment and quantity advantages of the boats may not be the opponent of these iron guys.
Moreover, if they are surrounded and leave a way out for them, they may not dare to fight with themselves.
As long as they dare to walk on that road of life, the paved mine formation will completely trap them in it. If they dare to break through forcibly, there will be only a dead end.
If all plans go well, the possibility of these troops of the Holy Lord Empire being destroyed here is as high as 9.90%.
