Chapter 19 Settling in Fengtian
Francissa Road had never seen such a scene before. He always thought that Chinese people were weak and incompetent, but now they are massacres one-sidedly.
Zhu Haitao kept swinging his sword, and the sound of bullets came one after another. After hundreds of casualties, the natives also ran towards the jungle not far away, trying to avoid the deadly bullet.
The French road had already disappeared. He was so scared that he ran towards the depths of the forest like a stray dog.
At the same time, the fourth-class warship, renamed the "Taohuayuan", continued to shell deep into the forest. However, the maximum range of the artillery above was five or six kilometers. At this distance, the shells were still very inaccurate, and within three kilometers, they could still hit the target well.
With the order, Zhu Haitao launched a bayonet charge against the escaped natives. The soldiers rushed over immediately and fought with these natives. Many of them were stabbed to death by bayonets while running away. It was not until the edge of the forest that Zhu Haitao quickly ordered to stop to avoid accidental injury.
However, several soldiers were still eager to chase the enemy and were hit by shells. Zhu Haitao asked the soldiers to come back regardless of their danger of life.
Li Junmei also quickly ordered the fire to stop, which was a complete solution to the threat of these natives.
Li Junmei quickly let all the ships dock, then got off the ship, and then asked everyone to set up a camp.
"How do our people aim? Why did they hit our own soldiers?" These five hundred people were trained by Zhu Haitao with great difficulty. Everyone was very precious, so he felt very angry.
"Oh, it's all my fault. I didn't let them shoot the cannon well!" Li Jifa felt very embarrassed, but he hated the cannoner who had not aimed at the cannon well. When he went back, he cursed at them.
Afterwards, Zhu Haitao criticized him and told him to treat his own people well, but he also realized that he was wrong.
When Mr. Wu from Tianwu Village saw that this was a Chinese army, he didn't know what the other party meant to him, so he quickly brought chicken, duck, fish and meat to the camp happily. Zhu Haitao wanted to find him, but he didn't expect that he would come first.
"This military master, I am Wu Hai from Tianwu Village, and the son of the village chief. My father was just killed by the natives. Thank you for your life-saving kindness! There are more than 2,000 people in our village. We can't repay you for your kindness even if you are a cattle or a horse!" As soon as Wu Hai met, he put delicious food and drink on Zhu Haitao's table, and immediately kowtowed to him and said with gratitude.
Seeing that he was so good at speaking, Zhu Haitao helped him up and said, "We are all Chinese, why are you and me? Get up quickly!"
"Yes, Jun Ye!" Wu Hai got up quickly.
When Zhu Haitao saw that he looked powerful, but there was a braid on his back, he was immediately unhappy, but he didn't show it. He just asked him to sit down and asked, "Mr. Wu, my name is Zhu Haitao, and I am the deputy commander of Taohuayuan Company. I came here this time to open up a new home. I wonder if you Tian Wucun want to join us?"
"Ah?" Wu Hai was shocked by Zhu Haitao's question. He thought that he would be able to reward these unknown people with something.
"Haitao, how are you talking?" At this time, a voice came in and Li Junmei walked into the Yingzi.
"Sister, we are chatting." Zhu Haitao immediately stood up, then sat down, pointed at Li Junmei and said, "This is the commander of our company. Just call her the boss."
"Hello, the boss!" Wu Hai immediately stood up and said hello, and was surprised at the same time. He did not expect that this seemingly powerful army was actually led by a woman.
"Mr. Wu, what do you think?" Zhu Haitao asked.
"Uh...we do, we do." After all, the army was placed outside the village and could break through the wall with one shot. When he was anxious, he quickly said.
"That's good. Join our Peach Blossom Land, and then you will have something to eat and drink it in the future!" Zhu Haitao nodded immediately.
Wu Hai regretted his decision just now, but this army looks quite powerful, and he might be following the right person!
This time, four brothers died due to accidental injury, otherwise they would have won the victory against these natives. On the same day, they picked up 587 native corpses on the ground, and more than 70 corpses were all broken limbs and broken arms. I don’t know whose it was.
However, since Wu Hai has agreed to join Peach Blossom Land, everything is easy to say. At least now they have a place to settle.
This village was renamed Fengtian Prefecture from Tianwu Village, a little low name. It was named Fengtian Prefecture in response to the will of heaven and let the Peach Blossom Spring be stationed here. Wu Hai also became the mayor here, responsible for helping Zhu Haitao manage the personnel here.
Zhu Haitao asked people to demolish the wall in order to expand the village. At first, Wu Hai was a little unhappy, but Zhu Haitao said: "Mr. Wu, our future business is so big. How can such a small village be filled with underground people?"
Wu Hai did not expect that Zhu Haitao had such a great ambition, and immediately admired him and decided to work with him.
"Mr. Wu, do you know how many Chinese people are on this island?" Zhu Haitao asked.
"I don't know how many of this island there are, but there are a lot of things nearby... there are about 10,000 people." Wu Hai said.
"That's good. If you have time, come and help me recruit more people from other villages. Only when everyone gets together can they have strength, right?" Zhu Haitao asked.
"Yes, since we all have worked together, the more people, the better!" Wu Hai said.
Starting the next day, Wu Hai went to help Zhu Haitao find someone, while Zhu Haitao began to build barracks for his soldiers and open factories to make room for the upcoming machines transported by Gonzalovic.
In addition, they also have to start looking for ore. Only with the corresponding ore can Zhu Haitao's plan be carried out.
The location of this village is also very good. There is a river called Medan nearby flowing out from the depths of the forest. The river bank is full of farmland. The climate of Mindanao can be cooked three or even four a year, so the food supply is also very sufficient.
When looking for ore, you must enter the forest, and there may be some indigenous people hidden here. Fortunately, there are also experienced hunters in the village. They hunt in the forest all year round, leading Li Jifa, Zhu Haitao and others to find the iron ore and coal mine that Zhu Haitao dreamed of deep in the forest.
