War Palace and Knee Pillow, Austria’s Destiny

In Mara Port, the British sailors were happily harming the local aborigines. Anyway, they belonged to other fleets and naturally did not have to worry about the consequences and responsibilities.

Vice Admiral Humphrey Senhouse had six battleships, more than ten other ships, and nearly 2,000 sailors. Moreover, there were frequent good news in the past, so he didn't think there would be any big problems.

But as an excellent general, he decided to send the sentry three kilometers outside the city and replace it every two hours.

At the same time, he did not order all warships to enter the port for rest. Instead, he adopted a rotation system to keep half of the ships combat-effective.

But nothing happened for several days in a row, and the life on the shore was really carefree, but wandering at sea was really boring. For so many days, I didn't even see a hair of the Nanming army.

On the other hand, it is said that Hugh Gough's troops have already reached the opponent's capital, and he may be living a life like a fairy under the care of the emperor's concubine.

After going back and forth, the officers and soldiers of the British fleet gradually relaxed their vigilance, and handovers were no longer so punctual, and things like leaving their posts without authorization occurred from time to time.

There was a storm on the sea that day, so the warships that were supposed to go to sea did not set sail, but all stayed in the Mara Port.

But strangely enough, it looked like a big storm was going to come, but it didn't last long and just brought heavy rain.

But even so, the wind and waves at sea cannot be ignored. After all, no crew member wants to enjoy the treatment of continuing to be bumpy on the sea.

As the commander of the fleet, Humphrey Senhouse did not want to force his soldiers to affect the morale of the troops.

After all, this trip to Kalimantan did not gain anything for most of his naval officers, and his fleet actually consisted of three parts, which was really troublesome to manage, so he simply ignored it and continued to immerse himself in it. The gentle countryside of local women.

However, many people are waiting for this rain, because this rain will last one to two months. Hugh Gough's siege plan is doomed to fail, and this is also the clarion call for counterattack.

Heavy rain poured down, and the whole world seemed to be shrouded in a rain curtain. The sentinels outside could not open their eyes at all.

The new recruit Granger squatted under a big tree and cursed with self-pity.

"Damn these Scots! They deserve to go to hell."

In fact, it is common for recruits to be bullied in the army. On such rainy nights, veterans hide in warm and dry rooms and play happy games with local beauties, but he has to squat in a tree hole to take shelter from the rain.

The more Granger thought about it, the angrier he became and wanted to go back to the barracks to argue with those damn guys. As soon as he left the hiding place and walked a few steps on the road, someone suddenly covered his mouth, and then a dagger was about to strike him. over his neck.

But the person behind him was far less strong than Granger, and the rain everywhere caused his hands to slip, so he was able to break free.

"Come quickly! Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

Granger yelled. It was less than two hundred meters away from the barracks, but the rain was so loud that his voice was muffled.

At this time, a spear pierced his chest. The opponent was so strong that he directly lifted up Granger who was hanging on the spear.

Granger could no longer feel the pain, and his head felt incredibly empty.

In addition to the physical sensation, he also felt puzzled as to where the attackers came from. They neither seemed to attack from the city gate nor dived from the sea. Besides, it was raining so heavily, and In a storm, even a fish will faint.

But now those things have nothing to do with Granger. Life is passing through him quickly, and then his consciousness falls into darkness.

At the same time, an aboriginal woman ran away from the wine cellar in panic, as if she had seen something terrible.

But this did not alarm the drunken sailors.

"This Oriental woman is also afraid of mice! Haha!"

"Ha ha!"

The sailors laughed loudly, but Second Mate Richard Pace warned.

"Young men, you'd better send someone to take a look. Corian went down with the woman just now and hasn't come up for so long. It's really embarrassing to the Scots! Haha!"

"Ha ha!"

In fact, these sailors still hate rats, so if they can be eliminated, they must be eliminated as soon as possible.

So two unlucky guys got the job of bringing back the drunk Corian and killing the rats.

As soon as the two of them got down, they smelled a smell of urine, which came from the room inside. It is not uncommon for them to discharge their filth into their crotch after being drunk.

The two of them continued walking forward when the person in front suddenly slipped and fell. The ground was covered with slimy liquid, which was indescribably disgusting when it was smeared on their hands.

"Damn, I touched shit!"

Then they found someone lying on the ground, presumably Corian. The person in front shouted twice, "Corien! Corien! The sun has risen!"

But the other party didn't respond, so he lit the lantern beside him.

Only through the weak light did he see clearly that Corian had fallen into a pool of blood. The hands of his companion who had fallen just now were covered in blood. Just when he and the man behind him looked at each other and were about to scream, the words in his mouth Suddenly a spear came out.

The spear pierced the back of his head and passed out of his mouth. He twitched and fell to the ground. The people behind him were frightened and wanted to turn around and run away, but as soon as they turned around, something was caught around their necks and they were immediately pulled up into the air. .

Soon the two men also turned into smelly corpses. The floor of the cellar was lifted up, and three thousand battalions of soldiers kept coming out of it. The time for the decisive battle has arrived

Outside the "Xinjing" city, Hugh Gough stood on a hillside and looked into the city. He couldn't help but sigh, "What kind of capital is this? It's completely a military fortress."

Almost all the buildings in this city are made of bricks and stones. Hundreds of Congreve rockets hit them, but the people inside were completely unmoved when they were eating and sleeping.

At the same time, Hugh Gough also noticed the continuous dark clouds above his head, and he did not want to let his victory have any uncertainty. So the general made a surprising decision-"retreat."

The officers under his command were very puzzled. After all, it seemed that victory was imminent. The opponent had already retreated into the city and did not dare to come out. All he had to do was continue.

"Those barbarians are not worthy of me continuing to sacrifice outstanding soldiers of the British Empire. Our purpose of deterrence has been achieved this time, and we can continue negotiations."

The heavy rain covered up the sound of fighting. Nanming's soldiers continued to pour out of the tunnel, and Lieutenant General Humphrey Senhouse's adjutant broke in.

"Your Majesty Lieutenant General, we must leave."

"What's the matter, sir?" At first, Humphrey Senhouse could hold the prostitute and talk calmly, but when he saw clearly that his adjutant, the young and handsome Welsh boy, had a navy uniform soaked with blood, he Can't calm down anymore.

"Enemy attack, Easterners everywhere, we are surrounded"

Humphrey Senhouse raised the curtains, and there was a bolt of lightning. Against the background of the thunder, the scene was intermittent. There were bloody fighting scenes everywhere outside the glass window, as well as Nanming soldiers pouring out of the abandoned houses.

Guess how to deal with those British battleships. If you guess correctly, there will be an extra update. There were foreshadowings before.
