Chapter 571 Everyone is afraid of backstabbing
Because while the Black Flag Navy was negotiating the treaty with the Zheng family, it was also discussing the details with the Dutch.
When one side negotiated a treaty that was acceptable to everyone, the other side was almost there.
The Dutch not only helped to attack the Zheng family's city, but also provided food and wages for the soldiers on the Black Flag Island.
No, not long after Sun Qin went to sign the treaty on behalf of Lin Wang, he saw the Dutchman running over and telling Lin Wang that he had prepared all the food and fodder on the island, and asked if he could capture a Zheng family
After the Han people settled in the city, they hired the Black Flag Marines to fight for them.
During this time, they observed the strength of the Black Flag Navy, its high armor rate, high firearm ownership rate, strong morale, and many of them wore sturdy Viking braids.
Although the braids are eye-catching, they seem to show good fighting ability.
And this group of black flag people is mixed within.
Even if the Black Flag tribe has something to do with the Vikings, there don't seem to be any real barbarians in the Navy.
Furthermore.
Compared to the complex environment on the island, the barbarians are nothing.
So on a sunny noon, the Black Flag Marines, fully armed and equipped with all kinds of weapons and equipment, landed under the nose of the Netherlands.
As a conductor, Sun Qin was also met by some local Dutch parliamentarians and was invited to have dinner or something together.
But Sun Qin refused on the grounds that he wanted to camp his soldiers on the shore.
"It seems like we can't negotiate here, so they're talking to the Dutch."
The Zheng family's troops on the island also gathered together, and when the Black Flag Marines landed, they greeted them from a distance, as if they were ready.
Zheng Zhibao looked at this scene and his teeth itched with hatred.
The Savage's position is too flexible in this situation, and they can change it if they want. Even now, there is still the possibility of backstabbing the Zheng family. Fortunately, the Zheng family has been ventilated in advance so that the Zheng family can prepare defensive firepower in advance.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Zheng Zhibao to participate in the siege of North Holland City.
"The black flag barbarians are powerful and invade the capital. Jiannu also fought against the Ming Dynasty in his early years and was defeated in Liaodong. They even entered the pass to repel the invaders and occupied the north. This barbarian is even more evil than Jiannu. We really want to fight with them."
The Dutch colluded and went to the island.”
The people below sounded a little scared just by talking.
How can Zheng Zhibao's curses boost others' ambitions, but the black-armored soldiers who came ashore in the distance are even more eye-catching when viewed through binoculars.
The Zheng family enjoys Fuzhou, so their soldiers are naturally well-equipped, and elite soldiers are definitely indispensable.
Morale is also very high.
But after the defeat at sea, it is inevitable to feel guilty on the shore.
"Check those positions again!"
The Zheng family's army has many soldiers, but it lacks officials who have been in actual combat and have been on large battlefields.
And it is impossible for Zheng Chenggong to sever the father-son relationship with his own father. Even if he goes out to open a new company, he will inevitably cooperate with his relatives, not to mention some old employees who follow Zheng Chenggong to open branches and are already members of the official party.
Although they did not learn everything, the Zheng Jiajun on Taiyuan Island still dug trenches.
This defensive posture is not just for the Dutch.
We also really need to be wary of backstabbing by savages.
But it was different in the eyes of the people sent by Black Flag to contact them.
I just feel that this group of people dug the trenches in a messy and sloppy way, which is a bit perfunctory.
"My master said that he would rest for a few days and get acquainted with the city. Three days later, in the early morning, our army would lead a raid on the city. All you have to do is come and fire cannons to increase your reputation. There is no need to enter the city to fight. Once the city is taken, go back.
Wait for the city to settle down, and then the master will meet with your general outside the city."
After speaking, the person who delivered the message smiled evilly and said: "My master also said that General Zheng Zhibao is quite biased against our navy these days. I think this will definitely satisfy the general."
Zheng Zhibao was not annoyed and sneered: "I'm satisfied, but remember, if the city cannot be taken down, don't blame our army for breaking the promise!"
The firearms at hand of the Dutch are very powerful, so it would be best if they could avoid collision with the Dutch and save a few lives.
And why did Sun Qin come here specifically to spread this message?
The Zheng family is afraid of being stabbed by Black Flag.
Black Flag doesn't really want to trust the Zheng family pirates, and is also afraid.
To be honest, if the Dutch are not ‘outsiders’, then their attitude towards seeking cooperation is quite good.
But Lin Wang and Sun Qin couldn't bear to see them making trouble on Dayu Island.
Therefore, even if the armor of the Black Flag navy soldiers is not suitable for the south, and they will be too confused and unable to fight for a long time, the battle still has to be fought.
Cloth face armor is definitely not allowed to be worn anymore. Even in the weather in late September, wearing a cloth face armor while fighting can still suffocate a person to death.
As the Black Flag Navy moved from north to south, the soldiers changed from cotton coats and shitty hats to hanging around on the ship wearing only a pair of underwear.
Now when I get ashore, I only wear my breastplate and helmet. I don't dare to wear my cotton robe at all times, only waiting to wear it in time of war.
They were stationed outside the city of North Holland for two days. During this period, the Zheng family kept coming to inspect the enemy's situation and make attempts to attack.
There was no rest at sea either. The Nanyang Fleet and the Black Flag Navy were anchored very close to each other, and the Zheng Family also continued to harass the two fleets.
This is particularly gratifying to the Dutch.
With the emergence of strong reinforcements that could cooperate, they seemed to have seen the future scene in which the Dutch East India Company, the Ming Nanyang Company, and the Black Flag Navy would cooperate to carve up sea power in East Asia.
By then, the situation in the East China Sea and the Yellow Sea may not be better than it is now, but maritime trade in Annan, Luzon, Brunei and other places, and control of most of the sea areas around the South China Sea will be controlled by sea carriage drivers.
But imagine that time has passed.
The Black Flag Marines launched a raid towards North Holland City!
This city, which consists of a Dutch-style castle as its main body and the main edge is made of low mudstone walls, was caught off guard and was attacked!
The outer city was captured with almost no resistance!
The Han Chinese, indigenous people and Dutch living in the city panicked when the outer city gate was blasted open by the explosion!
The city's speaker, Venand, didn't even put on his clothes before he rushed out to take control of the situation!
"Go! Contact those black flag Tatars! Let them come and defend the city!"
"Sir! It's those black-flag Tatars who are attacking us! The outer city has been defeated!"
"ah!?"
I thought it was the Zheng family's dog jumping over the wall to preemptively strike!
Wienander hurriedly climbed up to the observation port of the castle and looked out! He still couldn't believe that his allies who were tasting red wine together yesterday were now coming in with a knife!
But in the early morning, the light was dim, and there were screams and flames in the city! He couldn't see clearly!
"Are those savages!?"
"It can't be anyone else! Sir Speaker! Please give the order quickly! There are still many soldiers and their families outside the castle who have not entered the castle! Do we want to close the castle door!?"
Winander was finally convinced, his blood pressure suddenly increased, and his whole body turned red with anger!
"Damn barbarian!!"
Chapter completed!
