- "Sir, have you thought of a good idea?"
¡°That¡¯s needless to say, we all use our brains much more than we do.¡±
"Okay, you guys stop flattering me, let's listen to what the adults have to say."
After a group of little bosses gathered around, they started arguing in low voices.
Palma raised his hand and everyone fell silent.
Then, at this time, he spoke: "With our military strength, it is unrealistic to confront the opponent head-on. It's not enough for us to fill the gap between the opponent's teeth, but this name is a huge contribution if we don't grasp it." , I am really unwilling, I think you think so too."
After speaking, Palma looked around at the team captains.
What makes Palma more satisfied is that he did not see expressions of fear on the faces of these guys, which made him very relieved.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡ªDon¡¯t Look At These Guys Like Flattery, But These Guys Also Like War In Their Bones.
And what Parma needs is this kind of person.
¡°Besides, they have destroyed many Iroquois villages these days, and each of them has gained a lot of loot.
Although the Iroquois villages are very backward and poor, there are many gold ornaments in each village.
"Why do Europeans go to war? Isn't it just for money?"
The rich loot made everyone extremely excited.
After hearing what Palma said, all the little bosses nodded one after another.
"Yes, this contribution is very great. If we can severely inflict heavy losses on these Iroquois people, I think the masters will definitely reward us. Anyway, their goal is to weaken and massacre the effective force of the Iroquois. ."
Someone said in a quarrel.
They all knew the strategic intentions of Zhang Tie and Song Hu, and Zhang Tie and Song Hu did not hide anything from them.
Palma said: "I think the garrison of three thousand people is in danger now. If we can get rid of these three thousand people, we can easily deal with the old, weak, sick and disabled."
In Parma¡¯s view, the only threat the Iroquois posed to them was the remaining garrison of 3,000 men.
If they can deal with these three thousand people, the remaining 300,000 ordinary Iroquois people will be easy to deal with.
¡°After all, these 300,000 people are basically old men and women, or they are children.
It is impossible to completely annihilate these 300,000 people, but as long as Palma and the others continue to invade, it can still be planned to eliminate 50,000 to 60,000 Iroquois people.
"So I want to use gunpowder to kill these three thousand people."
Palma is very smart, although he does not know that Zhao Hongyu and the others have used black powder to deal with the enemy. But Palma felt that gunpowder could still be used in this way.
After all, he is a mercenary who participated in the Thirty Years War, and he knows another use of gunpowder.
That¡¯s how to make a ** bag!
Yes, in Europe at this time, ** bags also appeared. It's just that it has not been used on a large scale because of problems with technology and gunpowder.
Parma thought of this usage, and he thought it could solve the three thousand people.
Next, Palma told his subordinates his plan.
The little bosses all nodded.
After finishing talking about their plan, Palma and the others quietly retreated and stopped in a basin ten kilometers away. Then they collected all the gunpowder, made it into bags and buried it.
After everything was prepared, Palma and the others began to move towards the Iroquois stronghold again.
This time they were not going to fight, but to draw out the three thousand soldiers.
"Everyone remember, if everything goes well, go as planned. If there are changes, then we shouldn't stay here for a long time."
Parma made two preparations, that is, if the Iroquois were fooled, then they would eliminate these three thousand people as planned.
But if the Iroquois are not fooled, or if the plan goes astray, then Palma and the others will retreat decisively and leave the area controlled by the Iroquois.
Although he wants to take credit, he will not risk his life for it.
¡°Anyway, the credit he has gained now is already quite considerable.
It can be said that Zhang Tie has completed all the things he told him.
Therefore, it isEven if he retreated, Zhang Tie wouldn't say anything about him.
The team quickly arrived at the outskirts of the Iroquois. This time, Palma and the others did not hide and hide. Instead, they made a big show of fear that others would not know.
The reason for doing this is very simple, it is to attract the three thousand garrison troops left behind.
As expected by Parma, when they approached the Iroquois stronghold, they were immediately discovered by the Iroquois.
Come to think of it, the Iroquois launched an endless war against the Whiteskins. In order to prevent their people from being attacked by Parma and his incoming legion, the Iroquois temporarily abandoned their original villages and moved everyone there. Gathered.
Although the people have been gathered together, they can defend Parma and defeat them one by one.
But this also brings a slight disadvantage to the people because of the large population.
Fortunately, these disadvantages can be ignored.
And because of the large population, there are more sentries in the surrounding area, not for anything else but because they want to take everyone's safety into consideration.
At the same time, some old Iroquois hunters appeared in this area from time to time, and they would often go out to hunt to prepare food for their families.
So it¡¯s not surprising that Parma and the others were discovered.
¡°Besides, Parma and the others have never thought of hiding their whereabouts.
Soon, in front of Parma and their march, the 3,000-man regiment of the Iroquois left behind appeared.
Following the three thousand legions left behind by the Iroquois, there was also a team of about four to five thousand old men.
Although these old Indians are all old and weak, they can still be of great use at this time.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????? Consuming the enemy's vitality and consuming the enemy's morale for our own elite warriors, these old men are of great use.
Although this method is somewhat cruel and unacceptable.
But, you can¡¯t say that this method is ineffective.
And in the Indian concept, there is no such thing as means or means.
For them, as long as they can destroy the enemy, they can use any means.
Regarding the understanding of war, the Indians, a primitive society that is not very civilized, are more realistic.
Because they are not so hypocritical, giving themselves excuses of one kind or another to cover up.
"Retreat, let's slowly hang them up and slowly lead these people to the place where we buy guns." After seeing the dark enemy swarming in front, Palma gave the order to retreat.
"The Iroquois knew about Parma's plan. In their opinion, this enemy team was very cowardly. They actually wanted to run away after seeing the strength of their side.
However, now that they are here, how can they let the enemy leave like this?
This white-skinned army destroyed many Iroquois villages, and it was very dangerous to let them leave.
Rather than guarding against thieves every day, it is better to kill them.
Therefore, the Iroquois pursued them closely and had no intention of letting Parma go.
Seeing that the other party is chasing after him is exactly what Parma wants.
¡°Humph, I just want you guys to catch up. If you don¡¯t catch up, I¡¯ll still be worried.
?? Observing the situation behind him from time to time, Palma thought to himself.
And the Iroquois who were chasing after Parma and the others did not know at this moment that they were stepping into the gate of hell little by little and approaching the embrace of death.
Thinking about it, the Iroquois now have 3,000 elite troops, and there is also an old man's regiment of more than 4,000 people. On the other hand, the Parma side only had less than a thousand people. How could this be taken seriously by the Iroquois?
Therefore, the Iroquois just wanted to deal with Parma and the others in one go. As for other unexpected situations, the Iroquois pursuers did not consider it at all.
Isn¡¯t this a joke?
There are seven to eight thousand people on our side, while the other side only has one thousand people.
If there is such a disparity in the number of people, the other party cannot be eliminated. So this Iroquois commander really felt like he could die.
It was precisely under the control of the confidence that they would win that the Iroquois did not think much at all and just followed and pursued them.
¡°Besides, it¡¯s still winter and the land is vast.
And the surrounding area is very empty. If these white-skinned people have any ambush, they will be able to detect it immediately.
In such a season, the Iroquois did not think that these white-skinned people could come up with any tricks.
Slowly, Parma finally led the Iroquois into the ambush site they had prepared.
Watching the Iroquois slowly walk into the basin, Palma showed a ferocious smile on his face.
"Light the fuse, the enemy has entered the place where we prepared gifts for them."
Parma gave the order, and all the soldiers stopped and turned around to form a square formation.
Hey!
The spearmen were arrayed on the outside, and the swordsmen holding shields stood behind the spearmen. The arquebusiers were at the end of the line, and they began to clean the barrels and load lead bullets.
"Everyone, hold on, the enemies are just some indigenous people, they are not that scary! We will definitely defeat them. As long as we defeat these people, we can invade their villages and plunder their wealth."
After arranging the team, Palma encouraged the soldiers loudly.
The soldiers panted heavily and stared at the Iroquois entering the basin with tense faces. White breaths rose continuously, and the tense atmosphere before the battle began to spread among the team.
Although these people are all experienced in fighting, there will still be some nervous mood swings before every war.
After all, they are all people of flesh and blood. They cannot be like those dull genetic people who are not at all upset when facing the enemy's mood swings.
The lead wire kept emitting cyan smoke and burned quickly.
"The Iroquois didn't notice this at all. They just saw the pursued enemy suddenly stop, as if these guys knew they couldn't escape, so they wanted to make a last ditch effort.
The enemy stopped and prepared to engage the Iroquois in what they desired.
In fact, they are also very tired of chasing. If they can deal with these enemies at once, they will be very happy.
Therefore, the Iroquois quickly formed a sparse formation and began to slowly press over.
The Iroquois didn¡¯t know how to form formations at all, so they just crowded together and rushed towards Parma and the others.
Because the Iroquois have an advantage in numbers, they also learned from the other side today and set up a formation to attack the opponent. You must know that the Indians have always had advantages in surprise and ambush tactics, and it is really impossible to fight them in an upright formation.
But it doesn¡¯t matter to the Iroquois today, because they have a great advantage over the other party.
And they don¡¯t think that the other party will not be defeated by them.
The proud Iroquois were a little overconfident. They had no idea how cunning these white people were.
The Iroquois on the opposite side began to attack. Apart from being a little nervous, Palma and the others had not experienced much fluctuation.
After all, these warriors under him are all wearing half-length armor with strong defensive power, and even their calves and knees are covered with leg armor.
With such a strong defense, Parma are confident that it will be easy to deal with them.
The weapons of the Iroquois were daggers and cross axes, as well as some simple bows and arrows.
Compared to Parma, their weapons are simply rubbish.
"Crossbowmen prepare!"
After Palma watched the Iroquois enter the attack range, he gave an order for the crossbowmen in the team to take ten steps forward and come in front of the spearmen.
"Shoot upwards for three rounds and then shoot flatly!"
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Buzz!
The sound of bows being stringed continued to sound, and the crossbowmen began to load arrows into their crossbows.
Whoosh whoosh!
Then, he fired three rounds into the sky, and then started shooting flatly.
"Everyone, get ready! We will start to move forward after a while, don't be soft, the enemy must be completely wiped out here!"
"Brothers, if we defeat them, we will continue to make a fortune. I will take the lead! You all follow me!"
"I don't want to see anyone deserting. If I find out, I won't let him go!"
A group of team captains kept shouting and cheering for their teams, mobilizing before the battle.
Chichi!
The Iroquois did not notice at all that there was a burst of blue smoke rising under their feet.
When the overcrowded Iroquois?After everyone entered the basin, a huge noise suddenly sounded in the basin. At the same time, a small black mushroom cloud appeared in the center of the Iroquois ranks.
The violent explosion lifted many Iroquois warriors into the air, and even formed a vacuum zone in the center of the team.
"go ahead!"
Just when the Iroquois had not recovered from the explosion, Palma gave the order to march.
The phalanx began to press against the Iroquois, and the crossbowmen quickly fired the bows and arrows they carried, causing greater damage to the Iroquois. (To be continued.
