"It's a pity that the cavalry didn't come this time, otherwise none of these Japanese pirates would even want to run." Lu Fei walked up to the high ground bloody, "These Japanese pirates want to compete with the martial art of the final general and they are almost dead."
As he said, Lu Fei threw three samurai swords on the ground, and he continued: "His Royal Highness, these Japanese katanas are really good. If the previous weapons really can't stand these samurai swords."
In history, the quality of Japanese samurai swords was indeed good, but Xiao Ming couldn't look down on these things now. The silver, gold and sulfur of the Japanese kingdom were what he wanted.
Now that the war is still going on, Lu Fei is here to ask for Xiao Ming's next order.
"Luo Xin, you are now cooperating with Lu Fei to immediately win the contract with Mitchla, and you have allocated another 4,000 people to support Claire. Their situation seems to be bad." Xiao Ming said.
From where he was standing, Xiao Ming could also see that Claire was commanding the army to fight against the reinforcements of Japanese pirates, and the Dutch did not lose out in the face of the absolute number of Japanese pirates. "
"Yes, Your Highness!" Lu Fei and Luo Xin responded at the same time.
Then Luo Xin immediately commanded the soldiers to use horses to pull the field artillery to the direction of Mitchra Castle, while Lu Fei gathered four thousand people and went in the direction of Claire, and he took the remaining soldiers to Mitchra Castle. .
After receiving the support of the Qingzhou Army, the Japanese reinforcements in the direction of Claire were quickly defeated, and taking advantage of the chaos, Luo Xin and Lu Fei also successfully took down Mitchla Castle.
After the victory, the Dutch army and Xiao Ming continued to send soldiers to eliminate the remaining Japanese pirates, and most of the soldiers were stationed in Michra Castle.
The war lasted from noon to the evening, and when night fell, Lu Fei handed over the data of the battle to Xiao Ming.
"His Royal Highness, we wiped out 6,000 Japanese pirates this time. In addition, we captured more than 1,000 Japanese pirates. All the remaining Japanese pirates fled. We did not find the bodies of Sakai and Makino Haruaki." Lu Fei said.
"It's a pity, the villain Sakai has escaped again." Rod said bitterly.
Claire is still distressed for the loss of more than 700 soldiers. After this Japanese rebellion, their strength in Ryukyu has been further weakened.
And through this battle, he also learned about the strength of the Qi King's army, this is not a weak brigade.
In his opinion, this army is very close to their European Musketeers.
"Sakai is not important anymore, now we have retaken Mitchra Castle, and the Japanese pirates have no foothold on the island." Claire said.
Xiao Ming nodded. This time the Japanese pirates were defeated and basically lost their combat effectiveness. They were unable to fight against him who occupied Michila Castle. Now it means that he has formally controlled the Ryukyu Island and the sea routes.
Because during this period all merchant ships going south had to pass through the strait west of Ryukyu, and now he can directly cut off the trade between Goryeo and Japanese pirates going south, and of course King Chu and King Wei are no exception.
"Earl Claire, this battle is enough to prove the king's loyalty to the contract. I hope you can also faithfully fulfill the content of the contract. From now on, you must stop all trade with Japanese pirates."
In Xiao Ming's opinion, this battle is the best deterrent to Claire. If he is not too stupid, he should understand what to do next.
With a sigh in his heart, Claire understood that he had no choice now. The Netherlands was thousands of miles away. He could not send tens of thousands of troops from the country to East Asia. In fact, it was already very difficult to maintain the existing colonies with the decline of national power. Besides, Britain is eyeing their colony.
"As you wish, Your Highness, from now on, the contract is in effect. I will fulfill the content of the contract. From now on, the main island of Ryukyu and the Michal Fort will be officially handed over to His Royal Highness. At the same time, I hope that His Highness will send 2,000 people to Jeranja. The permanent army of the United States." Claire felt a humiliation in her heart. This is a nation bowing its head to another nation.
The current European ideological trend believes that "white people are supreme, and the rest are inferior", because there has never been a case in which Europeans lost to people of color and were forced to sign a bullying agreement on the road to colonization for a century.
So Claire is now extremely reconciled. Although he chose to submit for the benefit of the company, like the mainstream trend in Europe, he despises people of color from the heart.
In his opinion, these colored people are only worthy of being their slaves and servants.
Xiao Ming noticed the fleeting arrogance in Claire's eyes, and he also understood Claire's unwillingness now, because the emotions of the Dutch soldiers were more direct and clear than Claire's tolerance.
But he enjoys this feeling, because he just wants to prove that they lose in technology, not in the color of the skin, and in the future he will let more Europeans understand this truth and let them put away their arrogance.
In a moment of silence, Claire and Rod left Mitchra Castle with Dutch soldiers.
Watching the Dutch leave, Xiao Ming's mouth filled with a smile. He had to admit that in the contemporary era of sea navigation, he was the European stage, but he would not miss this gluttonous feast here.
"Your Highness, these red-haired ghosts don't look very happy." Lu Fei scratched his head and said.
Luo Xin curled his lips, "Of course they are not happy. Now that the city of Relanzhe and Ryukyu Island are under our control, they can only become our vassals."
Xiao Ming nodded when he heard the words, "Luo Xin is right. We and the Dutch are just using each other and we cannot fully trust each other. After all, they are Europeans and they are very wary of people outside Europe."
Lu Fei and Luo Xin nodded upon hearing this.
After a pause, Xiao Ming continued: "Are the wounded soldiers properly placed?"
"It's done, they are being treated by a Dutch medical officer in the castle." Lu Fei said.
Compared with the heavy losses of the Japanese country~EbookFREE.me~ Qingzhou Army performed well this time. After all, the advantage of the flintlock range was reflected in this battle, and Qingzhou's loss was relatively small.
"His Royal Highness, what about these captive Japanese pirates?" Lu Fei asked again.
Xiao Ming walked to a table. On the table was a map with the details of the Ryukyu island. He said: "I just stayed on the island as a slave. As a coolie, so much sugar cane on the island lacks manpower. ferry."
"Sugarcane?" Luo Xin's saliva remained, and he said, "Is sugarcane grown on Ryukyu Island? This kind of thing is very sweet."
Lu Fei had never eaten something like sugar cane, and at this time he was confused.
The Dutch occupied Ryukyu in these years, mainly planting sugarcane and rice on the island. Now is the time for a bumper harvest of sugarcane. The most important thing is that the Dutch also established white sugar workshops on the island. (To be continued)).
