698. Chapter 698 Afraid of death

"What's wrong? I'm soft-hearted!"

Eric looked at the vomited Luzon man in front of him, tilted his head and asked Xu Qianqian, who also had an unattractive face: "Just treat these bastards as beasts!"

From what he said, Eric had already despised the people in front of him. He couldn't bear this. No wonder he was suppressed and beaten by these Spaniards for so long.

"Eric Baihu, you are right. Just treat them as beasts. We don't know how many brothers have died in their hands. They should not have died in the first place!"

"It's a pity that there are too few people!" Eric smacked his lips, "Not even fifty people. My brothers here have arranged the arrangements in vain. Is it because the noise of your tossing is a little smaller?"

"No matter how loud the noise is, they will not come out in full force!" After saying this, Xu Qianqian laughed. With almost no effort, he almost wiped out a quarter of the Spanish on the island. Such a battle

, the next time or two, the Spaniards and their positions would be reversed. It was their turn to sit in the city, while the Spaniards fled all over the mountains and plains.

"Have all the matters at the dock been taken care of?" Eric shook his head: "Don't let us fight here, and there will be another ship to send the Spaniards later. It will be endless!"

"Didn't you say that Lord Qian's fleet is at sea?" Xu Qianqian was puzzled and immediately said, "Master Qian's fleet has no intention of docking, right?"

"I don't know about that!" Eric said, "I'll do my job well. If I know, the adults will tell me. If I don't know, I can ask around."

"What should we do now?" Xu Qianqian pointed to the wreckage in the valley, "While our morale is high, go directly to the castle and knock it down in one go?"

"I just want to wait!" Eric chuckled: "Maybe, there is no news about these dozens of people, and the city will send some more people out to check. This is easier than attacking their castle.

, isn’t it true that there are only two or three hundred of them in total, if we kill dozens more of them, they will not even have enough people to defend the city. If we attack the city at that time, it will be twice the result with half the effort.”

Not only did it get twice the result with half the effort, Eric didn't know that in the Spanish castle, there were not even 200 people left at the current position. Apart from the officers, there were still some non-combatants. The soldiers who could really fight were not even 150.

There are not even ten people. These one hundred and fifty people are divided into two groups to defend the castle. It is definitely not rich. The more than forty people who came to support are already the largest force that can be drawn from the castle. If we draw more people

When they come out, they have to be careful that when they go back, the castle has changed its owner.

Until dark, there was no movement at the dock, and no news came back from the people sent out. The people in the castle finally started to get anxious and did not dare to send people. However, the defense of the castle was not good at all.

They didn't dare to relax, for fear of being attacked by someone in the dark. The lanterns and torches in the castle were not extinguished all night long. When the white fish belly just appeared in the east, the soldiers who had been tired all night already had heavy eyelids.

I couldn't lift it up, and the yawns came one after another.

However, today during the day, they did not have people on duty in rotation. No matter how tired they were, some people still had to hold on to the defense of the castle.

"The enemy is coming!" I don't know who shouted, but the shrill whistle suddenly resounded throughout the castle. At this time, it was less than an hour since the man who had just been allowed to rest was lying on the bed, even if the officer

It took them more than twenty minutes, beating and scolding, to drive these sleeping soldiers to the top of the city.

The Spanish commander has thanked God countless times in his heart. These natives are indeed a group of barbarians who can only rely on brute force and numbers to fight. If they take this opportunity to attack, they will definitely have a hard time dealing with it.

.

In his sight, the natives in blue-grey clothes had appeared in piles, just like the last time they besieged his castle. The only difference was that last time, they were so overwhelming that they seemed not to be afraid at all.

They rushed into the range of their own artillery as if they were dead. But this time, they stopped far enough away from the cannon. This distance made it impossible to see the faces of these natives clearly. They could only

I saw patches of bluish-gray mottled in the green wilderness of the mountains.

"They have four artillery pieces. They can probably hit the farthest place, which is more than a hundred steps in front. Behind this, there are no more brothers killed or injured by the artillery!" Xu Qianqian stood on a

On the mound, she pointed to the castle in the distance and said with a solemn expression. They were able to stand here safely without any worries. That was the experience that her men had gained in exchange for their lives.

"The person who built this castle was a visionary!" Eric frowned and looked at the endless wilderness around him. In such a terrain, the opponent's firepower can be maximized. If there are not enough heavy firearms,

Apart from taking human lives, they had almost no other way to approach the castle without paying the price, and approaching the castle was just the beginning. With such a high city head and hundreds of musketeers condescending, how many people would have to die before the city could be conquered?

Can take it off.

"How much food is there in the city?" he asked.

"The Spaniards looted a lot, we can't trap them to death!" Xu Qianqian understood what he meant after hearing this: "As for those people in the castle, they can survive for three to five months with the stored food, then

It’s definitely not a problem!”

She shook her head sadly: "This castle once fell into our hands, but when we faced the attacking Spaniards, we didn't have their powerful artillery, nor did we have enough muskets.

The bows and arrows were finally taken away by them, but I still know the situation in the castle. Even if we burned down the granary when we retreated, the Spaniards must have replenished it in the past few months!"

"Then there's nothing I can do!" Eric spread his hands in a very bachelor manner: "You definitely can't fight. To put it bluntly, if there are hundreds of thousands of us, all of us get together, the fight will probably be

We can knock off this turtle shell, but I’m afraid that when it’s knocked down, most of our people will be dead!”

"Are you afraid of death?" Xu Qianqian squinted at him.

"Afraid!" Eric admitted with a stutter: "This is not our place, why should our brothers fight life and death here? Don't say I am afraid of death, even if I am not afraid of death, I still have to do it.

There is no reason not to be afraid of death! The lives of my brothers are very precious!"
