Chapter 1192 The First Great Geographical Discovery - The Envoy
"Enemy attack!" After discovering the tribes led by chief Qilika who came to attack the camp, the Ming army sentries shouted loudly.
In an instant, half of the camp was awakened. People stood up one after another, put on their clothes hastily, picked up weapons and rushed out to fight. In view of the huge gap in weapons between the two sides, if they wait for them to line up, no matter how many Chumash people there are,
Can't beat them.
Chief Qilika also understood this truth, so he kept his voice as low as possible and approached the Ming Kingdom's camp. At this time, they were only a few feet away from the camp, and they could immediately rush into the camp and eliminate all the invading sea people.
On the bed!
"Come on! Kill these sea people. Their things, whether they are sophisticated weapons, clothes that you don't know what they are made of, or things that you don't know what they are used for, all belong to our tribe!" A
The leader of the charge shouted loudly.
"Charge!" Countless people also shouted loudly and rushed towards the Ming army's camp.
‘We’re almost there, we’re almost there, we can rush into the camp soon!’ Geronimo said in his heart as he ran, with a happy smile on his face.
At this moment, he suddenly saw the sentries of the "Hai Ren" suddenly take something from their waists and throw it towards them. Those things were very small and not long, so what could they be used for?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw a flash of white light in front of him, and a few microseconds later a deafening sound reached his ears, making his ears buzz.
After a short period of time, the screams of countless people came from in front of him. Dozens of the three who were at the forefront were covered in blood and lay on the ground howling in pain. Just now Geronimo did not
Rushing to the front saved his life. Everyone who rushed to the front had just been injured by grenades thrown by the Ming army, and some were even killed; even those who were not killed may not be
Can survive.
Young Geronimo was petrified by what he had never seen before. When the roar in his ears gradually subsided and he understood what had happened, he was trembling with fear. These people possess extraordinary power.
Able to force the God of Fire and Thunder to serve them or to borrow the power of the God of Fire or Thunder, they are definitely not seamen, but men of God! They are probably messengers sent by God! And they come to attack the messengers of God themselves!
?What an unforgivable sin!
????"Oh God!" Geronimo's legs weakened and he knelt on the ground, raised his hands high, and shouted loudly, "Oh God! Forgive me! Oh God! Forgive me..."
????It’s God! It turns out to be God!
????Some people heard Geronimo’s cry and were equally at a loss. They suddenly had the answer!
????To be able to emit light comparable to the sun in the dark night, and to emit a loud noise comparable to thunder on a day when it is not raining, this is impossible for humans to do. It must be a god, or at least a messenger of God! And!
He is not just an ordinary messenger of God, he must be a very powerful messenger of God!
????When I thought that I was fighting a god, even the most daring people's legs trembled with fear. Some people fled towards the forest, but many others fell to their knees like Geronimo, mouthing
There are words to read.
Seeing them like this, the Ming army sentries who were about to throw out the second grenade were also at a loss. They had never seen such a situation before: on the battlefield, they had encountered enemies who were on the verge of collapse, and had encountered enemies who refused to retreat.
I have been there, I have encountered enemies who ran away after being beaten to a certain extent, I have encountered enemies whose entire army was surrounded and raised their weapons and surrendered, but I have never encountered enemies who fell to their knees and muttered words after being blasted by grenades for a while!
At this time, Fang Mingqian had led dozens of people to rush to the vicinity of the fence. When he saw the sentries staying in place with grenades in their hands, he shouted: "What are you doing! Why don't you throw the grenades out!"
"Captain Fang, look at these people attacking the camp!" said a sentry.
Fang Mingqian walked over suspiciously, and then was stunned. He had never seen such an enemy.
"Here," Fang Mingqian hesitated, looked at the growing number of people behind him, and ordered: "Go out, surround these people, and persuade them to surrender."
"But Governor Fang," Zhao Yuanyuan, who rushed over in disheveled clothes, pointed at them and said, "These savages should not understand Chinese. How can we persuade them to surrender?"
"This," Fang Mingqian patted his head. He really ignored it. It is impossible for these savages who have never had contact with the Han people to speak Chinese.
"How about shooting them all to death?" Cao Guangxiao said carefully. During the day, he patted his chest and said that there was no one around, but at night someone came to attack the camp. Now he really wants to be punished and meritorious service.
"Shoot them all to death, and you come to interrogate the ghosts?" Fang Mingqian glanced at him dissatisfied, and ordered Zhao Yuanyuan: "Find ways to make them understand, walk in one by one, and don't have anything in their hands. Everyone who walks in
The people will be tied up immediately."
"If it doesn't work, don't force it. Surround them at dawn tomorrow morning and capture them. If they stay outside all the time, don't worry about them. If anyone wants to run away, shoot them with a crossbow."
"Yes, Governor Fang." Zhao Yuanyuan was not happy about this job, but he agreed.
"Be careful, I don't want to hear about anyone getting hurt by these savages." Fang Mingqian warned again, lowered his body to pick up a spear that had been blown up from the ground, left here, and at the same time told most of them to go back to sleep.
He quickly walked to Zhu Bai's tent. Zhu Bai was waiting at the door. When he saw him, he immediately asked: "What's going on?"
"A group of people tried to attack the camp, but they seemed to be frightened by the grenades. Most of them ran away, and a few people were kneeling outside the camp, wondering what to say?" Fang Mingqian said.
"How could this happen?" Zhu Bai was originally full of worry, but when he heard Fang Mingqian's words, he felt strange: 'You actually scared them like this?'
"Probably because I have never seen gunpowder." Fang Mingqian said: "Your Highness, they are even more backward than the barbarians. I just took a look at their weapons." Fang Mingqian raised the spear in his hand: "What they use is actually
Still a stone.”
"Stones? Are they still in the Stone Age?" Zhu Bai took the spear and whispered.
"Stone Age? What Stone Age?" Fang Mingqian asked in confusion.
"Nothing." Zhu Bai said. This was written in a book written by Yunxi privately. Yunxi divided the civilization from ancient times to the present into the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, the Iron Age and the current Fire Age, and
It is believed that the ancient period was the Stone Age, and the weapons used by people were all made of stone; the third generation was the Bronze Age, and the weapons were all made of bronze.
This book by Yun Xi shocked capable people, such as Zhu Bai and other princes. They had never thought about how people lived in ancient times. They were deceived by Confucians into thinking that people have lived like this since ancient times;
But after reading Yunxi's book, and reading the conclusive evidence that copper was used more in the Spring and Autumn Period recorded in "Historical Records" and other books, I suddenly realized: "The great Confucians are all liars. People's lives now are better than those in the past three generations."
