Chapter 1183
Gao Jiu's reaction was quick, but it was still a little late.
Just as he ordered on-site defense, countless guys in gray military uniforms suddenly appeared around him.
These guys wore Italian-style assault hats and held rifles in their hands. The gleaming bayonets reflected the cold light in the Mediterranean sun!
There were so many people that even Gao Jiu believed it if there were 10,000 people.
Anyway, the place that caught my eye was full of people, and the nearest guy was only twenty meters away from me.
Good defenders are hidden under the Nine Earths, and these Italians have really mastered the essence.
The soldiers of the Ming army were obviously frightened, and they quickly started to hold fire. The veterans took out the grenades from behind their buttocks and reached out to pull the pin on it.
Gao Jiu also immediately pointed his gun at the guy closest to him.
But what happened next caught all the Ming soldiers by surprise.
The guy closest to Gao Jiu saw the gun pointed at him and immediately threw the gun away, then fell to his knees on the ground and cooperatively held his head in his hands.
this……!
Gao Jiu was a little confused. He had been a soldier for seven years, and this was the first time he had seen such a situation.
What are these Italians going to do?
"Don't shoot, you tongue! You tongue!" Gao Jiu was very afraid of his gang of stupid men shooting.
There were so many people on the other side that even if each of them got a shot, they wouldn't be able to leave a few good pieces of skin on their bodies.
The man who was about to hold the grenade suddenly stopped. His fingers were still on the grenade ring, ready to pull the string and throw it out at any time.
A guy holding a white flag came out of the opponent's camp. He looked like an officer.
He mumbled something like a goose suffering from asthma.
Because it was the first batch of landing troops, a translator was equipped.
This guy is an Egyptian and lived in Italy in his early years. Later, the Ming Dynasty came and worked for the Ming Dynasty again.
In this way, I mastered two languages with my clever mind.
When Li Xiu recruited language geniuses, he recruited this guy named Abdullah.
And this Abdallah was honored to be included in Gao Jiu's company and became the first Egyptians to land in Sicily.
Abdullah walked over and said this in quack as he walked.
It was obvious that the officer holding the white flag was very excited. The white flag in his hand danced like a windmill, as if he was seeing a relative.
The two of them were chatting and gesticulating in a lively manner, and Gao Jiu looked at it as if these two guys were trying to impress each other.
Finally, the talks between the two armies ended.
Abdullah trotted back and shouted loudly: "Lord Company Commander! Lord Company Commander, they want to surrender!"
"What?" Gao Jiu suspected that he heard wrongly.
Opposite were Italians who were ten times their own number, and they all had weapons in their hands. The machine guns were placed fifty meters away. If they charged, none of the hundred or so of them would survive.
At this point, you fucking said they were going to surrender.
Couldn't this Abdulla suddenly become insane...?
"Company Commander, they want to surrender, they don't want to fight." Seeing Gao Jiu's confusion, Abdulla said again.
At this moment, Gao Jiu quickly woke up from his dazed state.
"Surrender? Are there any who surrendered with weapons? Let them hand over their weapons, and then line up to surrender on the beach."
Gao Jiu was extremely nervous. He didn't know what the Italians were doing.
He clearly had the advantage, but he still surrendered.
Apudula ran back again and spoke loudly to the Italian officer.
The Italian officer with the white flag ran back, and soon the Italians began to form a team.
The Ming army didn't dare to breathe, and the black muzzles were pointed at the Italians.
Many Ming soldiers were crawling on the ground, and the machine gunners also found a bunker at this time and set up their mg-34.
The Italians didn't seem to care at all about being pointed at guns. They lined up and marched in formation, singing songs.
A guy with a star on his shoulder came over and saluted Gao Jiu.
He took out his pistol and held it to Gao Jiu with both hands.
Gao Jiu hesitated for a moment, then released his hand on the trigger and took the gun.
The guy carrying the star seemed to let out a sigh of relief, saluted Gao Jiu, and took the lead towards the beach.
Then the Italians lined up and walked past Gao Jiu like a military parade.
The rifles in his hands were placed one by one in front of Gao Jiu.
They were very orderly. After one team finished playing, they collectively saluted Gao Jiu.
Gao Jiu was very awkward, but had to accept it, because this scene was too much like a farewell to a body.
After throwing away their weapons and saluting, the Italians continued to sing songs in neat lines and walked to the beach to spend the rest of their lives as captives in the warm sunshine of the Mediterranean Sea.
From outside the beach, Italians came out endlessly. Even Gao Jiu was a little worried. These were all Italian plots, and the purpose was to release these people to consume the Ming Dynasty's food.
The troops who landed in small boats had their jaws dropped when they saw the group sitting and chatting in the dark on the beach.
It's not that I haven't fought before, but this kind of battle is really unheard of.
The ferocious artillery preparations of the arsenal ship must have been in vain.
No one expected that what awaited them after landing was not a battle, but the care of prisoners.
How can this make those young men who have been deceived by slogans think so much about sacrificing their lives for the country?
Poor Gao Jiu raised his arms in return and almost suffered from frozen shoulder.
In the end, I had no choice but to let my platoon commanders take turns to replace them.
Because Italians were constantly lining up to surrender.
The greatest damage to the Ming army in this battle came from Captain Gao Jiu's shoulder.
Li Xiu was even more shocked when he heard the news.
No matter what, the Italians never surrendered.
Moreover, the surrender was so complete that more than 20,000 people gathered on the beach.
I don’t know how many defenders there were in Sicily, but in one morning and half noon, they captured more than 20,000 prisoners.
Just after noon, the guy carrying the star found Gao Jiu again.
Suddenly he had to make a request!
Gao Jiu was very vigilant, and he didn't say anything on the beach at this time. Because his division commander Chen Huzi also came to the beach!
The smart Gao Jiu immediately introduced the guy carrying the star to Chen Huzi.
Anyway, you are all carrying the stars and have a common language.
Chen Huzi looked at the Italian general in front of him curiously. He didn't know that these guys didn't ask for anything before surrendering, but they still asked for nothing after they surrendered.
Today can be described as absolutely unexpected.
There are so many surprising things about Italians!
Because this general named Alessandro told Chen Huzi that out of the good intention of not causing trouble for the Ming army, the rest of his troops decided to have lunch before continuing to surrender.
Moreover, since his men on the beach surrendered, then... Daming needs to take care of the food.
...!
Chen Huzi was speechless.
A general surrendered without firing a shot. He even negotiated terms for lunch!
Chen Huzi instantly felt that one Marine Division should be able to occupy the entire Italy.
Without thinking much, Chen Huzi immediately agreed to Alessandro's request.
But Alessandro's second request immediately made Chen Huzi collapse.
"My troops need to take a nap and continue to surrender after two o'clock in the afternoon."
Chen Huzi felt that his ears were "buzzing" and there was an echo.
I heard that the ancestors of these guys were also the masters of the Mediterranean. Thousands of years have passed, how come the descendants have transformed into such idiots?
He had to wait until he had taken a nap before surrendering. His clever brain circuit shocked Chen Huzi.
"Let them sleep." Li Xiu waved his hand nonchalantly.
"Cook more rice on the warship. I heard that Italians like to eat noodles, so I will cook more noodles.
Canned beef was also brought out, and each person was given a can.
If someone comes and surrenders to us, we can't even afford a meal.
