Over the city of Lima, the long-lost sound of artillery and musketry rang out.
Since the Spanish took control here and built Lima, they used the mita system to rule, that is, they controlled the upper echelons of the Inca kingdom, that is, the kings and chiefs, gave them some benefits, enslaved ordinary Indians, and engaged in mining
, also built roads, bridges or worked on plantations. Even though the labor intensity was extremely intense, with working hours reaching 18-22 hours a day, and the death rate of workers even as high as four-fifths, they did not encounter large-scale resistance, let alone
It's time to attack Lima.
But today, Lima was attacked, something the Spanish colonists never expected.
They white gentlemen are enjoying their lives everywhere. They are suddenly attacked, so they don’t have time to react!
Although their buildings and troop deployments are indeed aimed at threats from the sea. But the sea threat they assumed was based on their opponents of equal strength, such as the Portuguese or the Dutch.
wait.
As for the scale, those who can travel such a distance to colonize are usually a few hundred people, and a thousand people would be an extremely large formation.
However, this time the Ming fleet attacked, the Marine Corps alone numbered more than 10,000 people, not to mention that the guns of these naval officers were Divine Rifle A, and the artillery was Divine Artillery A.
The Spanish colonists who were on duty rarely reacted, and they were dumbfounded when they saw their enemies lying there and shooting at them "bang bang..." non-stop.
Not to mention, the Divine Power Rifle Type A has the advantage of having a very long range compared to the ordinary flintlock rifles in the hands of colonists.
In addition, the grenades were thrown violently, and the explosion immediately made the Spanish colonists cry for father and mother.
It can be said that the process of attacking Lima was very smooth, just like water flowing smoothly to a lower place.
Qian Muming and other soldiers originally from South America were the most courageous in fighting, and it was they who captured the Spanish Governor in Lima.
When they met the native Indians in the city, they shouted loudly in their native language, telling them to kneel aside and not move, which also made the Indians dumbfounded.
The last time Zheng Zhibao came over, he came in an unofficial capacity, so they were not wearing military uniforms. But this time, it was directly a naval expedition, so that the Indians here did not react at all. These are worse than the Spanish master
What's more powerful is that they actually come from the same place as those who came last time.
Of course, another point is that under the rule of the Spanish, the life span of Indians was extremely short. It has been almost ten years since Zheng Zhibao came here last time. It is estimated that not many of those who met Zheng Zhibao and the others are alive now.
.
Therefore, the Indians in Lima could not guess at all who these people who were more powerful than the Spanish masters and could still speak their humble language were.
Qian Muming and others, as soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, naturally knew military discipline. When they captured the Spanish governor, they knew they could not kill him, but a punch and kick were unavoidable.
To be honest, they never expected that one day they would be able to defeat the Spanish Governor!
Afterwards, Qian Muming immediately asked Zheng Zhilong to fight and asked to take the soldiers back to his hometown, where they belonged to the tribe.
These people were originally selected from various tribes, young and strong people who knew how to serve flowers and plants. Naturally, Zheng Zhilong would not be different from their demands. He immediately assigned a small team of two hundred people to fight back.
Their respective tribes simultaneously announced the arrival of the Ming Empire.
Since arriving in the Ming Dynasty, Qian Muming and others have been thinking about it day and night, thinking that one day they can return to the tribe and rescue their relatives.
I have been away for nearly ten years, and in many cases, it may be that my loved ones have to say goodbye forever.
Therefore, Qian Muming and others could not stay for a moment and did not take any rest. As soon as they captured Lima, they took Paoze and headed towards their respective tribes.
This side of Lima is basically the same as when they left. There are still dirt roads, mountain trails, and patches of rainforest. Unlike the Ming Empire, which is almost the same every year and is changing rapidly.
Therefore, Qian Muming and others rushed to their tribe by familiar routes.
Along the way, if they encountered Indians, Qian Muming and others would immediately greet them in their native dialect, but they rarely received a response. They were all frightened, kneeling on the ground and shivering.
They were all frightened by the Spaniards. Now that they saw the army with even greater power and murderous intent, how dare they care about others.
Qian Muming and others ignored these people and hurried to their tribe as usual.
When they were approaching the tribe's residence, the other soldiers could hardly keep up with Qian Muming and others.
When they arrived at the gate of the tribe and saw the thatched houses of the tribe, Qian Muming and others suddenly stopped. It seemed that at this moment, their legs and feet became extremely heavy and they could no longer move.
However, when each of them looked at the familiar thatched cottage of the tribe, tears came down and their bodies even trembled slightly.
It’s even more timid to be close to home!
The appearance of two hundred Ming army officers outside the tribe would definitely be noticed by people within the tribe, but they did not dare to move.
Because they can see that these people have very powerful muskets in their hands. Just by looking at their postures, they can know that these people wearing the same clothes are definitely more difficult to mess with than the Spanish master!
Suddenly, Qian Muming shouted loudly in his native dialect.
At this moment, he was very worried that his parents, brothers and sisters were gone and could not respond to him.
The sound was so loud that it echoed in the sky above the tribe. People came out of many thatched houses, and then joined the ranks of other Indians. They began to gape at the sudden appearance of these strange people.
Some of these people were known to Qian Muming, and some he could no longer recognize. His eyes glanced back and forth eagerly, trying to find the person he was looking for.
Finally, his eyes suddenly fixed on the face of an old woman. After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly ran out like crazy, shouting "Mother" loudly as he rushed over, and at the same time, tears fell all the way.
.
Everyone's eyes were attracted to him, whether it was the Indians or his robes, they all watched him running.
Suddenly, Qian Muming tripped over something. He was running so fast that he even fell over. However, he got up again and started running again without noticing that his military cap fell to the ground.
, "Mother, mother..."
The old woman listened to Qian Muming's shouting and watched him fly over. Suddenly, she was struck by lightning and stared at Qian Muming's face, but her own face showed an expression of disbelief.
expression.
Qian Muming ran directly to her, knelt down in front of her, raised his head, looked at the old woman's face, and cried with tears streaming down his face: "Mom, it's me, it's me..."
This tribe is not a small one. When they heard the noise outside, people would come out of the thatched houses from time to time. However, when they saw the strange scene in front of them that they had never imagined, they remained strangely silent and just watched.
The entire tribe was very quiet, except for Qian Muming's crying voice.
"Mom, it's really me, look!" Qian Muming looked at his mother who was still dumbfounded, as if he couldn't believe it, so he quickly wiped the tears that were pouring out with the back of his hand, wiped his face, and then raised his head again,
Let his mother see it more clearly.
Finally, the old woman seemed to recognize it, her body trembled involuntarily, and she slowly stretched out her hand to touch Qian Muming's face, as if she was very afraid of the scene in front of her, but she was actually dreaming.
Son, it’s actually a lie.
After Qian Muming was selected and left his hometown, who could have thought that one day they would come back.
From now on, they take it for granted that they can never see each other again!
But now, Qian Muming has not only come back, but he can't even recognize him. One look at his appearance, and you can tell that he is living a good life! Not to mention that he is older than the Indians, even those white gentlemen are not afraid of it.
Qian Muming's majesty at this time!
When the old woman's hand touched Qian Muming's face, and after feeling it for a while, she suddenly rushed forward and protected Qian Muming tightly. Looking at her posture, she seemed to be afraid, if she
If she hugged her a little looser, Qian Muming would leave her again.
At this time, Qian Muming was also holding his mother tightly. Like his mother, he was afraid that his mother would suddenly disappear!
Quiet, the tribe is still very quiet, everyone's eyes are focused on Qian Muming and his son.
The difference is that the Indians all have shocked faces, while Qian Muming's face has a look of relief.
After a long time, Qian Muming remembered and quickly asked his mother, where were his father and younger brothers and sisters?
It's really a pity that his father and his younger brother were all selected to go mining and do hard labor and never came back. One sister was sold to the city, and she didn't know whether she was alive or dead. There was only one youngest sister left in the family.
.
Needless to say, the Ming army officers and soldiers controlled the entire tribe, and the Indians did not resist. Not to mention the rich Mu Ming, even if he was not there, all the strong men in the tribe were selected for labor service, especially the bloody men.
Die early.
Only the chief's family has everything they need, no one needs to do hard labor, and their life is obviously several levels better than that of other Indians.
With the arrival of Qian Muming, needless to say, the chief's family was captured. And Qian Muming was also accepted, envied, and worshiped by other trembling Indians...
Afterwards, Qian Muming led his tribe and Paoze and quickly headed towards the mine.
