There are many natives from Yizhou Island under Da Wula's men.

In addition to the Pingpu people, there are also many mountain people from Yizhou Island. They are natural mountain soldiers and are good at climbing cliffs.

The backside of Tallahan Port, which was attacked by the Western Front of Dabura, is a coastal cliff formed by waves.

This was regarded by the Dutch as the natural wall of Port Tallahan, so they did not take any precautions.

Davura launched several feint attacks on the front of Tallahan Port, and after successfully attracting the attention of the defenders, one night he sent 50 mountain warriors to quietly climb up the cliffs on the back of Tallahan Port.

Inspired by spectacle and ideals, these mountain warriors were fearless and fearless. They used advanced electrocution rifles (Mine guns) and a fifty-man skirmish formation looked like a thousand troops to the Dutch defenders.

They couldn't even lift their heads when they were hit.

The soldiers of the Mountain People fought like special forces and relied on the cover of night to successfully capture the two most important forts in the northwest of Tallahan Port, which made a great contribution to the Guards' capture of the port in the early morning of the next day.

Batavia has always regarded the west as a safe zone because Port Tallahan is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so they did not build any forts on this road.

Therefore, as soon as Davula captured Talahan Port, he found that the road behind was smooth, and the Dutch counterattack was very weak and could almost be ignored.

This is not an indigenous army, it is a demonic army that even the Spanish Army can easily defeat!

Even the Matalan servant army was armed by the wealthy Ming Zheng. The bright breastplate of the servant army made the Dutch feel frightened.

Not to mention, there are nearly 10,000 Chinese in the city. God knows if the enemies wearing sun and moon flags outside the city begin to attack the city, they will fight back.

Because the ferocious Matalans frightened them!

After these Matalan servants invaded the fortress, they committed all kinds of evil. Even the Dutch who surrendered were killed by them!

It’s unbelievable that the Dutch, who had been oppressing them for decades, were treated like this!

This also made the Matalan servant army, which had just experienced a bloody battle, become even more humble and awe-inspiring in front of the Guards.

The Netherlands is just a country with a population of millions. If every war had to be fought to the death, the Netherlands would have ceased to exist long ago.

This kind of terrain was too dangerous for the Ming Dynasty and Zheng, but the Dutch didn't have time to attack them before the crocodiles in the swamp caused non-combat casualties.

Although they are said to be sea coachmen, the Dutch are actually a group of merchants. When they have the upper hand, they can be unyielding, but if the enemy is too fierce, they will have to consider their own interests.

Although it seems that the attacking army is more disadvantaged, the Dutch in the city have already raised the idea of ​​surrender.

How can we win this battle?

A minor illness has little impact.

If Cornelis is determined to fight to the end, the senators and officers will let him experience what it feels like to be a tsar.

However, this terrifying army still chose to attack Batavia City from the east and west sides, instead of sending troops to the south, forming a three-sided situation.

The only advantage of the rainy season for Ming and Zheng was that the temperature dropped, which made the Guardsmen wearing heavy breastplates much more comfortable.

The two armies merged into one, and an army of more than 20,000 people appeared outside the city of Batavia, which made the Dutch in the city feel numb.

Even though the enemy troops outside Batavia were in trouble due to the arrival of the rainy season, judging from their posture, they showed no signs of retreating.

When the Matalan servants covered in blood found that the main bodyguards brought by Davula were all in high spirits and had almost no injuries, their jaws dropped in shock!

Their new dad is too fierce!

This style of play is completely out of the imagination of the Dutch.

However, it is also more likely for soldiers sleeping in the wild to contract diseases. Fortunately, thanks to the popularization of the "Barefoot Doctor's Manual", the Guards are now equipped with a large number of army doctors!

There are plenty of flintlock muskets, but the Matalans are not qualified to use them yet!

Moreover, those seemingly civilized Easterners did not care at all about the brutal behavior of the servant army!

The rainy season affects not only the Guards, but also the Netherlands. Their weapons are not as advanced as the Guards!

At present, there are only 3,000 regular troops in the city of Batavia, and the other 4,000 are either forcibly recruited Dutch or indigenous soldiers.

The Dutch looked left and right, thinking about how to surrender, and said Cao Cao. Cao Cao arrived. Soon, the envoy of the Guards wrote a letter telling them that if they surrender, they will not be killed, but will be sent back to the Netherlands as gifts!

Because the terrain of Batavia is high in the south and low in the north, the forests and mountains in the south receive more than 300 days of rain every year, bringing 13 rivers that run through the city, and the south of the city also has the most swamps.

area.

But rain will greatly affect the firing of flintlock guns.

The councilors and officers of the East India Company in Batavia finally stood up and asked Governor Cornelis to carefully consider Ming Zheng's conditions.

At this time, the powerful Guards also encountered a small trouble, that is, the rainy season in Batavia had arrived.

The Spice Islands have a tropical rainforest climate, and August is the rainiest time.

The Guards had only two thousand electric rifles, most of which were old-style flintlocks. The Matalan Servants were inferior and used matchlocks.

Unless it is a fortress that surrenders before the war begins, almost no chickens or dogs will be left behind!

Let him die directly from a "stroke", and then they welcome Master Wang!

Just when Cornelis was hesitating, his assistant Peter quietly came over to persuade him, hoping that he would surrender quickly!

Facing his assistant, Cornelis Spearman, whose eyes were bloodshot, seemed to have seen a life-saving straw: "Peter, are reinforcements from the Spanish Expeditionary Fleet coming?"

"Your Majesty the Governor, the Spanish Expeditionary Fleet is a bunch of bastards. They don't care about the life and death of the Dutch. If they don't surrender, God can't save us!" Peter said helplessly.

Hearing this, Cornelis held his head in pain and said in frustration: "What's the difference between surrendering now and waiting for them to attack the castle? Will our fate be worse? It's better to keep the honor of the Dutch and fight."

At the last moment, at least you can die with dignity!"

Seeing that he wanted to have his own way, Peter shook his head and thought, if you don't surrender, let alone fight to the last moment, you will have to go see God first!

"Your Majesty the Governor, I fully agree with your idea. There are only Dutch who died in the battle and no Dutch who surrendered. Batavia will fight to the last Dutchman!"

As he spoke, Peter ordered his servants to serve the "dinner" with special ingredients carefully prepared by the MPs for Cornelis!
Chapter completed!
