Chapter 334

The city of Taiwan, which was originally impenetrable but now only remains in ruins and riddled with holes, surrendered within a few days under the powerful offensive of the Liao Army.The fortress on the high ground behind Taiwan City was captured by the Liao army, and the cannons were placed on the heads of their defenders. Thousands of shells poured into the city every day. As the casualties of the defenders in the city gradually increased, these Dutch soldiers lost their lives. Courage to resist.

Governor Yizhou of Dongdu Company stood at the gate of Taiwan City, behind a group of dejected soldiers, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on their faces, the muskets in their hands were confiscated by the Liao Army, and there was nothing left.

Putmans handed over his command knife to Nelson: "Our East India Company troops stationed in Yizhou are willing to surrender to the Ming army. I hope you can keep your promise, protect our lives and property, and let us safely withdraw to Batavia. .”

"No problem, we have agreed to your conditions. Next, we will prepare a ship for you and send you away." Nelson took Putmans' command knife and handed it to the adjutant, "You only have two days to pack it up. thing."

"Is it so fast? Just like you suddenly announced that you will expel us, your army is really unpredictable." Putmans seemed to be laughing at himself.

"This is an instruction from our highest level. He believes that you have seized the place that originally belonged to the Chinese civilization." Nelson said.

"You are clearly from Great Britain. The force behind the Liao army is you, Great Britain, right? Haha, I didn't expect that we would fight your country to the death in the European battlefield. I didn't expect that you would still have the power to infiltrate into the Far East and support such a powerful country. It seems that we underestimated your Great Britain." Putmans said.

"No, you're wrong. This is the local power of Ming Dynasty, and I'm just working for them. Strictly speaking, I'm not from Great Britain here. For some reasons, I can't go into details. You are ready to pack up and leave, I don't Let's kill," Nelson said.

Being constrained by the system and unable to reveal his true identity, Nelson could only vaguely explain to Putmans.It is not a psychological burden for Nelson to go to war with the Netherlands now. Even in his previous era, the European countries were in a life-and-death relationship of hostility, and they were not friends.

"No matter how much you deny it, you can't erase the fact that you served in the Liao Army. When I return to Batavia, I will report this matter to the board of directors. They will reassess the strength of Great Britain and cooperate with other kingdoms to sanction You," said Putmans.

"You can do whatever you want." Nelson rolled his eyes indifferently.

Please, he is really not from Great Britain in this era, and Putmans is throwing the pot around by doing this.

The defenders in Chikan City in the south of Yizhou fell into panic after the water source was cut off by soldiers led by Liu Wang and the local aborigines.With the news of the surrender of Taiwan City, they breathed a sigh of relief and immediately chose to surrender.Even their own chiefs have led people to surrender, so they have no reason to stick to it.

However, compared with the smooth reception of Taiwan City, there was a little surprise in the reception of Chikan City.

"Are you going to let these red-haired people go? Do you know that they used us like livestock and asked us to pan for gold and plant for them around the clock. Now that they are in our hands, how can we let them go so easily? !” The Han Chinese who communicated with Liu Wang on behalf of the aborigines accused the surrendered Dutchmen of crimes, and were dissatisfied with the Liao Liao Army’s attempt to send the Dutchmen away.

"Everyone, convincing people with virtue has always been the virtue of our Chinese civilization. This is also the most different thing between us and these red-haired people. If we deal with them the same way they used to deal with us, won't we be the same as them? Don't worry. Well, they lost this city, even if we don't punish them and they return to their country, their people will not let them go." Liu Wang said.

"However, we are not relieved like this. If the hatred of the past few years is let go like this, they will only think that we are weak and easy to bully!" said the Han representative.

"Quacking is Ouha..." Not only the local Han people in the southern part of Yizhou, but also the local aborigines croaked and croaked.

Although Liu Wang couldn't understand their local dialect, he roughly knew that the anger in the tone of these natives was probably accusing these Dutch people.

Liu Wang was a little embarrassed.One of the conditions for allowing the Dutch to surrender is to ensure the safety of their lives and property, so as to speed up their surrender and reduce their own losses.In addition, Chu Yun also said that we should not massacre at will like the Mongols conquered the world before, otherwise even if the world is conquered, it will collapse soon, so killing is impossible.

"I told you, be nice to the local people at ordinary times, and they won't embarrass you at this time. Look, the people here are eager to eat your flesh and tear your bones apart. You can see what kind of beastly deeds you have done before. .Now it’s all right, do you want me to follow the public opinion and kill you?”

Liu Wang paced in front of a group of Dutch captives, questioning them.

"Master of the Liao Army, we know we are wrong, don't kill us, don't kill us!" Among the captives, a soldier who could understand Chinese heard Liu Wang's words and quickly knelt on the ground, weeping.

The rest of the soldiers who couldn't understand Chinese also knew the seriousness of the matter, and imitated those soldiers and knelt down and kowtowed and begged for mercy.

"Why is it that I'm the only one involved in this matter. How about this, you draw a bastard on each of their faces to show humiliation, and understand the grievances from now on." Liu Wang patted his forehead and suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"Will this be too cheap for them?" the local people said.

"This is already a compromise. It not only humiliates them, but also shows that we are magnanimous. Let's do it like this." Liu Wang said.

The Liao army gave them the steps, and the local people finally stopped insisting. Instead, they used local colored clay to paint big bastards on the faces of these captives who surrendered.Seeing them all in a panic, the hall roared with laughter.

"Damn it, I'll spare you today, if you dare to come to our Yizhou in the future, you will be beaten so hard that even your mother won't recognize you!" The local Han people sneered.

Although the local aborigines couldn't understand the mocking method of painting bastards, most of their anger was relieved when they saw that the red-haired man who was usually high above him was so funny.

They have been oppressed by the red-haired people who colonized here all these years, and now the red-haired people have finally been driven away.

"Before you leave here, you must not wash it." Liu Wang, who came up with this coquettish idea, made another knife.
