The Ming army built a camp on Batan Island, and hundreds of Ming army acted as laborers and built a large camp after three or four days.

After the camp was roughly built, Duke Li ordered the Ming army to advance inland.

According to the map drawn by the Spanish, there is an island further north of Batan Island. You will have to cross the strait further north.

While the Ming Army Marine Warfare Association was exploring Bataan Island, several armed merchant ships were also sent by Du Li to investigate another island in the north.

The Ming army camp was built in a buffer area downstream of the river.

The Ming army walked about 500 steps north and could see the river. After a few days of investigation, they basically found out the nearby situation.

One day after another, there are two villages, basically about a few hundred people, and there are about a hundred strong men in each village.

Seeing the Ming army coming in a fierce manner, these people did not dare to get close.

However, the Ming army did not make things difficult for them. They basically just walked by the village in a hurry and did not disturb Shengfan's life.

The tribes on the island are basically natives from Taiwan thousands of years ago. Most of them make a living by fishing and hunting. A few tribes have begun to evolve into farming, but it is not obvious.

Lin Xu led more than 30 Ming soldiers from three squads to grop on the north shore of the island. They first walked along the coastline, but gradually they were blocked by cliffs and had to sneak into the mountains and forests.

The jungle is dense, and you can only see the blocked path under your feet, only one person can pass through. From time to time, you can see some green snakes entrenched on the trunks. After walking, you can find that it is chilling.

The Ming army was exploring the island for several days, but except for encountering several pirates on the first day, the big guy was not in danger.

However, out of caution, the Ming army was still fully armed, with three squads of Ming soldiers totaling 36, and their equipment was mainly firearms.

There were twelve musketeers, six archers, and more than ten sword-card soldiers. In addition to the waist knives, the six chief and deputy squad leader were equipped with short-barrel flintlock guns newly developed by the Firearms Department. They were mainly imitated after seizing the Spanish flintlock guns from Lavague. The workmanship was more refined and basically used as a gun for grassroots officers of the Ming army.

Lin Xu also had a musket around his waist, but he bought it from a Spanish non-commissioned officer for ten Spanish silver coins for self-defense.

In addition, the muskets equipped by the Ming army musketeers on the island are all the latest self-generated muskets. With the assistance of the craftsmen of the Lavag Firearm Factory and the East India Company, the accuracy and range of the Ming army's self-generated muskets have been greatly improved. Even the large-caliber heavy self-generated muskets can break through the plate armor within twenty steps.

In addition to a huge leap in quality, the most obvious thing is the configuration of a gunsword.

In the battle between Luzon and Spanish musketeers, the Ming army often found guns and swords around the waists of musketeers. This short sword directly inserted into the gun barrel naturally aroused Liu Yu's idea and was also assigned to the Ming army musketeers.

The gun sword is naturally what later generations call bayonets. This thing has actually started to be equipped in the Ming Dynasty. However, the Ming Dynasty at that time was internal and external troubles, and like the self-generated muskets, it was not fully promoted.

Later, the Qing emperors who were immersed in the dream of the beauty of the Celestial Empire would naturally not have thought that the Eight Banners men in later generations would be chased by Western muskets and bayonets.

Now what Liu Yu gave the Luzon Ming army was a comprehensive development of firearms. Not only light and heavy flintlocks, but also the development of colloid guns, guns, swords, fire and thunder, and other modern individual thermal weapons, were also added to the infantry of the Ming army's town association squad by Liu Yu.

As long as you don’t encounter the Eight Banners Cavalry, such military equipment is enough to fight against any army in East Asia.

In fact, Lin Xu also felt that taking such a force to encircle and suppress pirates is too bullying the pirates.

However, as a deputy commander of the Ming army, even if you are pursuing pirates, you have to use all your strength.

I don’t know if it should be joy or helpless, but the officers and soldiers of the Ming army have never met pirates again in the next few days.

I guess the pirate ship was really just stranded among the reefs in the wind and waves. This island is not a pirate's nest.

"Dongdong,"

"Dongdongdongdong..."

Suddenly, a rapid sound came from the direction of the stream ahead, which sounded a little messy but seemed to be rhythmic.

"It's the drum sound, and Class 3 is ready for combat." Lin Xu heard something was wrong and ordered Class 3 to be alert immediately.

Lin Xu lived in Luzon since childhood and lived with Shengfan. He knew more about what these sounds were than these Ming soldiers.

The Shengfan on the Nanyang Islands will use some wooden equipment or some bone products to make small drum-like things to surround prey. When conflicts with nearby tribes, they will also use the drum sound to deter the enemy.

Lin Xu looked at the movements in the surrounding rain forest alertly, probably because his team entered the hunting ground of a Shengfan tribe.

Suddenly, a wave of restlessness appeared in the surrounding rain forests, and from time to time there were bursts of shouting.

The Ming army musketeers present opened the security one after another, and the knife player protected the musketeers. More than 30 Ming army soldiers were divided into three square formations under the command of the chief and deputy squad leader to guard the three directions.

“Oh, oh, oh..."

Under the vigilant gaze of the Ming army officers and soldiers, nearly a hundred Shengfans, naked, rushed towards the Ming army soldiers.

"Be careful." Lin Xu raised a wooden sign and pushed a musketman away, and a thin mark was scattered into the wooden sign.

Before Lin Xu could find the man, he could only hear a few muffled groans among the Ming army officers and soldiers.

Lin Xu raised his musket and fired a gun into the sky. In an instant, the huge musket sound shocked nearly a hundred people.

In this gap, Lin Xu shouted:

"Blade player, fire and thunder serve."

"Mirdsman, fight against the tree."

Many Ming soldiers present had fought with Luzon's life and had some experience.

After Lin Xu spoke, the knife player took out black iron balls from the cloth bag on his waist. There was also a long fuse rope on it, and a wooden handle was embedded under the ball.

The knife player lit the fuse with fire and threw it at the gathering place of Shengfan.

Shengfan, not far away, was still shocked by the sudden sound of muskets, and had not yet reacted from the thunderous sound. He saw more than a dozen fire lights exploded, accompanied by wailing sounds.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Seven or eight young actors fell from a high place, their bodies were covered in blood, and their eyes were so wide that they could not die.

After the Ming army's musketeers threw the arrows, they realized that there were people on the tree. At this time, there were no special forces. Shengfan hiding on the tree could not escape into nature with high-end camouflage objects.

It was just that the Ming army was careless and forgot that this was the rainforest and the threat from the trees. Now that they reacted, the Shengfan who was hiding on the trees naturally couldn't survive.

With a gunshot and a scream, the seven or eight young people who were ambushed on the tree were directly knocked to the ground by the Ming army.

The rest of the Shengfan was obviously panicked and scattered in fear, but before they could be scared, a huge explosion swept across the rainforest.

The fuse ignited the fire thunder, and the iron fire thunder was detonated. Although it was just black gunpowder, its power should not be underestimated. Especially these animes were not wearing clothes, and the ending of the body resisting was naturally blown to the point of being covered in blood.

The one who was close to the fire thunder was blown up and covered in blood, and fell to the ground unconscious.

More people were frightened by the sudden waves and momentum of fire, which was more shocking than the previous sound of the musket.

"Kill." Lin Xu didn't say much, but took out an arrow and pointed it at Shengfan who was holding a small drum in the distance. He pulled the bow and put the strings. An arrow instantly penetrated into the neck of the Shengfan. Shengfan fell down with a sound, and blood was like a spring for a moment.

The musketeer quickly loaded gunpowder, lead bullets, and knife player rushed up and rushed into the Shengfan group and slashed.

Lin Xu and several archers stared at the slobber and drummer in the slobber. Every time they saw someone, they would have an arrow.

The weapon of the primordial weapon is nothing more than some sharpened wooden spears, and the only threatening one is the sagittarius.

Blowing arrows are poisonous needles, usually hidden in flutes or specially made bamboo tubes.

The special archery used by Indians in the jungle to hunt, weapons using similar principles can also be seen in primitive tribes in Africa, Oceania, South America and other places.

Shengfan in front of him also used similar weapons. Several Ming soldiers groaned before and were injured by Shengfan who was ambushed on the tree with a blow arrow.

The fight was almost one-sided massacre. Shengfan's weapons were too primitive. Compared to the Ming army officers and soldiers wearing armor and holding long swords to protect the cards, they had no power to resist.

From time to time, the Ming army's musketeers would fire a gun at the crowd.

However, after tens of breaths, he ran away in hundreds of lifetimes.

These animals are obviously familiar with the environment of the jungle and soon disappeared into the rain forest, leaving only dozens of corpses.

Lin Xu looked at the corpses of the zodiac on the ground in disgust. Many of the zodiacs were not dead yet, and they were lying on the ground and wailing.

"Sweep the battlefield, give me some pleasure if you are not dead." Lin Xu ordered.

After saying that, Lin Xu took more than a dozen musketeers and knives players to chase after him in the direction of escape.

The hunting ground is basically not far from Shengfan's camp.

It is obvious that the Ming army accidentally broke into their territory, especially when they approached their camp, which led to so many life spans.

But Lin Xu didn't care about this. He only knew that he would hurt several of his soldiers with poison arrows.

I was here to chase and suppress the pirates, but unexpectedly, I was plotted against by these Shengfans, so I naturally had to chase and kill them and destroy Shengfan's camp.
