open sea

Chapter 1004 Conflict
When Ying Ming and his troops brought their war horses to the island on the opposite side of the ocean after a short voyage, Havana almost turned red.

The soldiers stationed here belong to the Spanish West Indian Legion, most of whom are descendants of veterans who retreated from the vast New Spain to the West Indies to guard against pirates.

Under Zhu Xiaoen's command, the generals leading the Restoration Army are General Wu De and Ailan Qianhu Chen Yuhan, who is also the chief instructor of the Restoration Army; the ones leading the more than [-] cavalry are General Wu Lue and Deputy Qianhu Han Jinhuan, both of whom are fellow villagers.

After the battle of Lin Laihai, they all entered the Nanyang Lecture Hall as the descendants of Lin Manjue with military merits. They entered the Nanyang Lecture Hall late. His grades are not outstanding, and he is not as lucky as Lin Huer, so he is relatively lower than his official position.

When their ship approached the port, the Spanish soldiers stationed here seemed to want to give them a warning, and four stone cannons fired huge stone balls into the sea.

Of course, their muzzles were not aimed at the Ming fleet.

They even deliberately turned the heavy and huge stone-shooting cannon to an angle that would never hit the open ship.

But this still made the two generals who led the fleet very angry-the official document of the notification was sent to the West India Committee five days ago by Yang Tingxiang and Almansa, and they set off from Weigang after approval.

What does it mean to shoot?
After a brief semaphore exchange, the two ships turned to aim their broadside guns at the fortress named "Black Dragon". bell tower.

A volley shot past the glass of the bell tower and the top of the spire, but no one was killed. Only one unlucky horse in the fortress was broken by the shell that fell through the glass of the bell tower and broke its leg.

The fortress did not continue to fight back, the watchman on the mast shouted the news of their surrender, and in the binoculars of the two thousand households, they saw an iron-eating beast flag raised on the fortress named Black Dragon with White Walls.

Although the commander of the fortress came with monks and guards in a small boat to explain that the sound of the artillery was a misunderstanding, and the two generals did not cause any more trouble, they knew the reason why the defenders fired the artillery.

Only the defenders stationed here in the Spanish Legion have the Iron Eater flag. The reason why they got this flag is also well known to the veterans who participated in the canyon battle-after landing, Han Jinhuan and Chen Yuhan gathered together, he said A word, attracted great recognition from the other party.

"Bernar's soldiers."

Their origin with these Spanish Legionnaires stationed at the Black Dragon Fortress in Havana is not only that.

In fact, most of these Spanish soldiers lost their fathers and brothers six or seven years ago. soldiers sergeant.

These young men then joined the army and marched to 'Acapulco' under the leadership of Bernal, where Mincy was once again defeated in the Second War.

The sea of ​​old and new hatred is over, and it can't be wiped out without a treaty.

The two sides fired artillery and naval guns. Although no casualties were caused, the governor of Havana still sailed to New Spain that day.

The emotions of the more than 400 Ming army cavalry did not require Han Jinhuan to bother at all. First, they were not angry, and second, they could think about it. With the preaching officer around them and the military law watching over them, no one wanted to have trouble with the Spaniards.

Ying Ming's mentality at this moment can well represent the cavalry of the Banner Army. When the chief banner officer in charge asked him what he thought of this skirmish, he replied: "It's best to make small things happen. The court has big things to do." I'll wait to do it."

"If it really doesn't work, we won't be afraid of his defeat."

But being able to hold back the vanguard does not mean that everyone can hold back. Chen Yuhan, a thousand households of the National Restoration Army, is so anxious these days that he is jumping barefoot...he can hardly hold back the soldiers.

There was some war-derived hatred between the Ming army and Spain, but it was not deep. After the victory in the war, no one regarded Spain as an enemy anymore.

But Zhu Xiaoen's Restoration Army is different. They were rescued from the plantation by the Ming army, and they were recruited by Zhu Xiaoen into the army. Now they are well-equipped and well-trained, and their combat effectiveness and pride are increasing day by day.

Only, the hatred for the Spaniards who ruined their country and their families continued unabated.

This kind of hatred is difficult to eliminate without going through a big victory. Even if it doesn't show up at ordinary times, if there is a little spark, it will ignite a raging fire in people's hearts.

The two generals were in a dilemma.

"The military government's order is to let us wait for news from General Chen and enter France under his guidance."

Although Chen Yuhan is the principal Qianhu, he still feels that Han Jinhuan, the deputy Qianhu who led four hundred Beiyang cavalry, is more valuable. "In the current situation, we should board the ship and return to Weigang. The Spanish side does not know when it will be announced." Letter, if you stay here any longer, sooner or later someone will bleed."

Han Jinhuan spread his hands and said: "I can't go back, but don't forget, before the expedition, you and I followed King Ailan to issue a military order in front of the military government office. There will be progress and no retreat. Go back at this time?"

They were waiting for the news from Chen Jiujing. Shi Xiaolou was recommended by the Duke of Guise in France before returning to the voyage.

They may stop in France, and if things change, they will stop in Spain, and then Zhu Xiaoen leads the National Restoration Army to Ireland, while Han Jinhuan waits for the opportunity.

For the next fortnight, despite everyone's efforts to avoid confrontation, bloodshed occurred outside Havana near a freshwater well near the port.

The Spanish soldiers fetching water met the Zionist soldiers fetching water at the well, and their quarrels turned to insults. After hearing that they were wearing Ming army uniforms but could speak the language of the aborigines, the Spanish captain drew his sword and stabbed them to death. A soldier of the Restoration Army.

In the impression of most Spaniards, only the Ming army and them are on this land, and the others are not counted as people.

The matter didn't stop here. Under the circumstances that the Spaniards couldn't imagine, the soldiers of the Restoration Army fought back.

They were fewer in number than the Spaniards, and five of them carried three shoulder poles, but the other two carried heavy weapons—a four-foot-nine-inch Qijia knife without a sheath on their shoulders.

The warriors wielding long knives rushed to scatter and cut down the Spanish team. The captain who did it was cut and dragged back and stuffed into the well.

In the end, at the cost of two deaths and three injuries, five deaths and two injuries were achieved.

After their great king Zhu Xiaoen knew about this incident, it was completely unlike the two generals who rushed to transfer all their troops back to the ship to confront the defenders of the Black Dragon Fortress in Havana.

The first thing Lord Xiao En did was to give them five tributes, but his letter had no chance to be sent out.

Because Chen Jiujing's messenger came, and the letter said that the situation in France was very complicated, but he still had a way, and asked Ailan King's troops to go to Bilbao to find him with the guide.

　Good morning!The whole world celebrates.
