584. Chapter 584 A dead horse is treated as a living horse doctor
Cangshan is like the sea, and the setting sun is like blood!
On normal days, Antonio, the Spanish Governor of Luzon, would occasionally be at the port, looking at the brilliant sunset outside the port where the water met, watching the poetic sunset, and slowly falling into the gorgeous sunset.
, disappeared under the sea. If there were a few ladies around him, maybe he could write a sonnet or something in response to the scene, to prove that he, Antonio, was actually a very talented gentleman.
Of course, he couldn't appreciate this beautiful scenery now. Standing on top of the fortress, all he could see was a piece of ruins in the distance. As for the curls of green smoke rising from the ruins, whether it was his
In his eyes, neither the burning embers of the Governor's Palace nor the smoke from the cooking stoves of those damned mobs could be regarded as beautiful scenery.
However, in the place where he was supposed to stand and enjoy the beautiful scenery, there were people who came to appreciate the scene for him. Unfortunately, just like him, all the people, their eyes and thoughts were not focused on the slowly setting sun.
On the body.
Yan Jiu and all his soldiers looked at the sea. Everyone's expressions seemed frozen, their mouths were slightly open, and their eyes were full of incredible looks, or in other words, very complicated looks.
There is surprise, confusion, confusion, and unknown fear.
"The flagship fired at the Princess! That's right!" The hundreds of households around him said to their companions in disbelief.
Yan Jiu came back to his senses and glared at him fiercely. He wanted to say something to his soldiers, but suddenly found that his throat was a little dry and he didn't know what to say.
He didn't have a telescope, and he couldn't clearly see the semaphore sent by the flagship towards the Princess. However, everyone heard and saw the two earth-shattering cannons. At this time, the morale of the military was unstable.
If he said anything wrong, there would be no real chance of redemption. This is also the disadvantage of never leading a soldier. If Wang Yu, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, would know that, even if he tells a lie right away, it will not work.
It would be better than him not saying anything now. Military morale is something that cannot be touched or intangible, but if there is really chaos, it will be a disaster for any army.
"Mu Qianhu hasn't come back yet?" The annoying voice of the woman from the Xu family came from behind. Yan Jiu turned his head slightly disgusted. When he turned around, what Xu Qianqian saw was a face with no expression.
"Hmm!" He snorted.
"What is Commander Qian doing? Is he practicing battle array artillery skills?" Xu Qianqian said loudly.
Yan Jiu's heart moved. This woman was helping him. This reason was much better than letting the brothers guess. At that moment, he replied loudly: "Yes, we adults train the fleet, but we always pay close attention to it. Whenever there is something,
Whenever I have the opportunity, I will practice it. When we came here, we have practiced it many times at sea!"
"Oh! Oh!" Xu Qianqian said as if she suddenly realized something. The soldiers who heard the words here also nodded secretly, remembering that they had been practicing all the way from Dongfan. Well, they must have
So, the fleet is training again under the command of Mr. Qian to guard against enemies coming from the sea.
Several hundred households around me seemed to understand the meaning of these two adults' questions and answers, and shouted loudly to the soldiers under their command: "Go and eat, what are you looking at? You don't have enough to look at at sea."
!”
The soldiers dispersed in twos and threes, returned to the steaming porridge pot, and ate their dinner.
At this time, Yan Jiu turned around, took a serious look at Xu Qianqian, and smiled. This was the first time Xu Qianqian saw his smile.
"We have been standing still for a day, and all the wounded have been sent away. Can we take down the Spaniards and his minions together!?"
Xu Qianqian looked at the sea in the distance and said softly.
"Just us?" Yan Jiu laughed bitterly in his heart and shook his head: "We can't take it!"
"We are not afraid of death!" Xu Qianqian raised her head, looked at him, and said seriously, "If we don't get rid of these people, we will never have peace in Luzon!"
"I know!" Yan Jiu still shook his head: "What did you and us adults say? There are more than 500 Spaniards on the shore, but do you know that during the day today, we examined the corpses, and last night
,How many Spanish gun soldiers have we killed in total?"
He snorted and did not need Xu Qianqian to answer: "Twenty people, just twenty fire gun soldiers, plus a bunch of natives who can't even speak clearly, you have lost more than half of your people, let me
We lost more than 200 people! If your information is correct, there are more than 400 gunmen in the Spanish city, and I can guarantee that they must have artillery!"
A sarcastic smile appeared on his lips little by little: "I don't think we can capture the Spanish city with our current military strength!"
"Today, more than two thousand volunteers from all townships and villages have gathered!" Xu Qianqian pursed her lips tightly: "Things have reached this point, even if we stop, they will not let us go.
Therefore, even if you don’t help, we will still fight this battle!”
"That's your business!" Yan Jiu saw that she was so stubborn and didn't even bother to explain to her, "But without our Lord's order, my people will not go anywhere in this port!"
"You..." Xu Qianqian was at a loss for words, glanced at him hatefully, turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly she seemed to remember something, and the look on her face changed to a somewhat proud smile: "When did Commander Qian...
The order given to you? This Mu Qianhu went to Commander Qian early in the morning and hasn’t come back yet. Haven’t you ever thought about whether something happened!?”
"I won't bother you with this. That's our Jinyiwei's business!" After hearing this, Yan Jiu felt a little irritable again.
"I am the Governor of Luzon in the Ming Dynasty. The fleet is at my gate in Luzon. How can you say it is none of my business!" Xu Qianqian snorted.
"Your ancestor was the governor of Luzon!" Yan Jiu didn't give any face, "As for whether you are, our court has not recognized you yet, but I have never heard that our governor of the Ming Dynasty is hereditary!
"
Seeing that Xu Qianqian's arrogance had subsided a little, he continued: "Even if you are, you are not qualified to point fingers at our Jin Yiwei. Our Jin Yiwei are the emperor's own soldiers and supervise all the officials for the emperor. If you are dictating to you, then
That’s the right thing to do!”
Xu Qianqian was really angry at this cold-faced man. One Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. Can anyone slap someone in the face with his words? Fortunately, his loyal men were not around, otherwise, a fight would have started immediately.
!
When she wanted to say something more, Yan Jiu was already walking towards the distance with her hands behind her back. She paused and finally stopped following him.
Something must have happened to the fleet. Na Mu Qianhu was the person sent by Commander Qian to protect her. She even took off her soft armor to him. This shows that this protection was not just mentioned casually.
But Mu Qianhu went to the fleet early in the morning, but there has been no news, which is very strange.
If Commander Qian had not planned to send troops to help him, he would not have decisively sent Yan Qianhu to lead the troops ashore after he lit the signal. However, after he came ashore and seized the port, nothing happened. This is also
It's too anticlimactic. No one who knows a little bit about military affairs would do this! Even she knew that at this time, she should take advantage of the enemy's chaos to pursue the victory.
"Then just wait one more night!" She secretly said to herself. If Commander Qian didn't make any move tomorrow, she couldn't go on like this. At worst, she would just have to fight with those Spaniards. She could only linger here and continue to stay here.
Missed opportunity.
…
"Master Qian, are you feeling better?" Grisha stood outside the cabin, looking into the cabin and asked anxiously.
When the Princess approached the flagship, the medical center had just made a decoction for Qian Wubing. When Wang Yu and others were explaining Qian Wubing's condition to Grisha, Qian Wubing had just finished drinking the decoction.
Mu Siniang looked at Grisha coldly. She was obviously very unhappy with Grisha's yelling. However, even Zhu Yunniang, who was leaning on the side of the ship, didn't say anything, so naturally she couldn't say anything.
Two medical officers walked out of the cabin, with slightly soothed expressions on their faces. Zhu Yunniang walked over and asked: "He... how is he?"
"This prescription seems to have some effect. Your Excellency has regained some energy at the moment, but we have to wait and see for an hour to see how it works!"
"What recipe did you use this time?" Zhu Yunniang raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Princess, I have used two sets of Piwensan. My body is not getting better, but is getting worse. A few of us have discussed it and think that what you are suffering from may not be a common disease. This is not our Ming Dynasty. There are some
Strange epidemics are also possible!"
"What prescription did you use?" This time, even Grisha became impatient and asked you what kind of medicine you used, and what you said you didn't want to do.
"Isatis root, honeysuckle, and some auxiliary medicines!" The expression on Zhu Yunniang's face changed slightly. She was not completely ignorant of medical skills, but among the books she had read and the prescriptions she had heard, she had never heard of such two.
This medicine can cure diseases!"
Seeing his expression change, the medical officer hurriedly explained: "It's not the children who prescribe random prescriptions, nor the test of prescriptions. How dare you give it to the adults? However, the adults personally confessed that it was from his family."
The children looked at the secret recipe handed down from their ancestors and found that the medicine was not toxic, so they boldly gave it to the adults to use!"
"Secret recipe handed down from ancestors?" Zhu Yunniang was dubious. She stretched her head to look into the cabin, then turned to Wang Yu and said, "Take the two of them to the cabin to rest. Don't let them wander around. I'll go see him!"
