Awe!
When everything was over, Bagar and others were dumbfounded when faced with the collapsed "Magic Castle" and the more than twenty Chilean soldiers who came out of the "Magic Castle".
This...is it over like this?
"First, sir..."
Bagal, who was still a little dazed, seemed to have thought of something, jumped off his horse in a hurry, and bowed in front of Zhu Xianhai.
"Please allow me, Bagal and Wadse, to be your most loyal servants!"
Once upon a time, in the eyes of the Mapuche people, the fire-breathing "Magic Castle" was an invincible thing, but now these "Chinese people" coming from the mountains have easily destroyed the "Magic Castle" like lightning.
.
The strong...the Mapuche people respect the strong the most!
The Mapuche people, who are born warriors, have always believed only in the strong.
Of course, Zhu Xianhai tried his best to win over Chief Bagal's surrender. Of course, in addition to words, he also gave them dozens of pieces of cloth and even some weapons. Of course, they also captured the weapons of the Chileans, that is,
Just some muzzleloading muskets.
"Oh, there is a cannon!"
Looking at the weapons handed over by the Chileans, in addition to the various muzzle-loading muskets, there was also a six-pound bronze cannon. Of course, this gun could not be given to them.
The reason why the "Magic Castle" is a "devil" is, to put it bluntly, because the Mapuche people have no means of attacking fortresses and no cannons. Such a shabby yard is an indestructible fortress.
Let them ride against the wall with their spears?
"Sir, where should we go next?"
Looking at Chief Bagal like an idiot, Zhu Xianhai observed the surrounding terrain and then said.
"Okay, now, it's time for them to come here to see me!"
This fortress is a demonstration of Nanhua's strength. Now it is the turn of the chiefs of the tribes to take the initiative to show their sincerity.
…
Like lightning!
The news that the "Magic Castle" had been captured spread like lightning throughout Araucania. The chiefs who were frightened by Chile's massive invasion immediately led their most courageous troops after repeatedly confirming the news.
The warriors and gifts rushed towards Mount Thordies.
The unusual behavior of the Mapuche people certainly attracted the attention of General Rodriguez, especially the "Peace Fort"
The fall of was itself a "big event".
"orchid?"
Again, General Rodriguez asked.
"What tribe is this and who are its people?"
"General, we have very limited information about them. At present, we only know that the "Orchid" tribe comes from the Pampas grasslands east of the Andes. They are good at using muskets. It seems that their language is also similar to that of Araucania.
The Mapuche people are different.”
It must be said that the intelligence work of the Chileans is still very effective. At least they figured out that an "orchid tribe" came to Araucanía.
"A tribe that is good at using muskets..."
General Rodriguez's brow furrowed.
"Who sold them firearms? Could it be Argentinian?"
"That's quite possible, General, who else but an Argentinian?"
Almost subconsciously, they believe that this "Orchid Tribe" is probably an indigenous tribe supported by Argentina. Just like they tacitly allow businessmen to purchase the Mapuche people and steal cattle from Argentina. To put it bluntly, they are also using the Mapuche people.
To attack the Argentines, now the Argentines are just copying their homework.
The reason why they do not doubt their judgment is that the people of the "Orchid Tribe" do not look much different from the Mapuche people.
"Are those chiefs heading towards Mount Thordies?"
General Rodriguez asked.
"Yes General,"
Major Carlos said.
"Now, almost all tribal chiefs are focusing in that direction! It seems that they are preparing to gather their troops."
"Instead of gathering an army, listen to the call of the strong!"
General Rodriguez stood up and said proudly.
"This is our chance, maybe, to put an end to Araucanía's problems twenty years ahead of schedule!"
As the architect of the plan to attack Araucanía, he knew exactly what kind of opportunity this was.
The tribal chiefs scattered in Araucania are all heading to this place - this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
August 10, 1861.
Araucania was destined to be unrest on this day. General Rodriguez, who was originally promoting the "Fortress Conquest", immediately adjusted the direction of his attack and returned to Mount Sodiles.
At the same time, the "Eagle Castle" on Sodiles Mountain has become crowded with people. Chiefs from all over the place have gathered here. The chiefs are here, and the warriors from the tribe are here.
There are tens of thousands of people!
The Mapuche people focusing on the vicinity of Eagle Fort come from more than a dozen tribes in Araucania, so various typical people of the Mapuche people are presented in front of Zhu Xianhai, allowing him to observe. The Mapuche people
They are generally tall and tall, and their appearance and skin color are similar to those of northern Chinese. Very few of them have beards, and most of their black hair is neck-length.
Through these two days of observation, Zhu Xianhai found that these men were idle all day long, as if they had nothing to do. They said they were soldiers, but in fact they did nothing except robbery. In contrast, Mapuche women were very able to endure hardships.
They are hardworking and busy with housework all day long, brushing horses, cleaning weapons, and even plowing fields and hunting for men. In addition, they also find time to weave the "canopy" that the Mapuche people wear on their bodies.
"People..."
Looking at the Mapuche people riding horses and competing in equestrian skills in the wilderness, these people have many bad habits, including being rough and drunk, but what is certain is that they are all very brave.
If used properly, this is a card.
When it comes to playing cards, although we say we don’t run a chess and card room, we are still half an expert!
As long as these Mapuche people are properly utilized, the Chilean people's desire to control Araucania is simply wishful thinking. Even these Mapuche people in one unit can feed them a pot.
However, the most important thing is to make the Mapuche people surrender to him. Thinking of the chiefs he met in the past two days, Zhu Xianhai sneered in his heart.
“I still can’t shed tears until I see the coffin!”
They may have come here and even brought gifts, but they have not yet given the real gift.
What is a real gift?
Of course it was their surrender, they seemed to be waiting for something.
Just as Zhu Xianhai was thinking about this, Juan ran over in horror and said.
"Master, something big has happened, something big has happened, the Chilean army is coming here!"
Hearing this, Zhu Xianhai felt happy.
OK!
The coffin is coming!
