"Ah!" the head shouted, then swung the dagger in his hand vigorously and gave the native with a spear a blow
"Puff" the head just shot the dagger and the two natives with the javelin stuck into his back and endured the huge pain. The head wanted to spin back and kill the two natives, but at this time he He really has no strength, the pain is unbearable
"Puff puff" more and more spears and javelins pierced his head and body, he couldn't stand it anymore
His head fell down. At the last moment, he saw a lot of aborigines surround him and assassinate him. Finally, he lost consciousness.
"Retreat" a veteran shouted. After losing the commander, the Chu people's defense line collapsed quickly. Their numbers simply cannot withstand the attack of so many indigenous people. Although the weapon is advanced, this weapon still has some fatal flaws. These flaws are enough to make them unable to defend the entire front
"Retreat and retreat" Chu people began to retreat continuously. They began to retreat to the place where they lived and fought back with some favorable obstacles.
With a "bang" gunshot, one of the aboriginals fell down. This close range and high density can easily cause losses in the opponent's personnel, but this kind of loss is not a big deal to them. The worst thing is that the aboriginals use their huge personnel. The advantage is fast approaching them
A Chu man squatted down to load the ammunition immediately after shooting, but the man behind him was not so lucky. He just stood up and was about to aim at the enemy when a poison dart shot over and hit him in the eye.
"Bang" a gunshot, but the bullet was shot into the sky
"Damn it, let's retreat, the enemy is rushing over." The Chu people can only retreat while fighting
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"" the natives rushed over quickly, but they were cruel to the chu people they killed with poison darts. The ax in his hand came and chopped off the necks and heads of the Chu people, and the family was separated like this
"We can still go, we can retreat, we are finished, we can't beat our opponents," a Chu man shouted loudly
"Back to the edge of the cliff," a Chu man shouted. They retreated while loading ammunition. The situation made it difficult for them to make the right choice. The situation became very critical.
More and more Chu people are brutally murdered. The natives almost use extremely cruel methods to kill Chu Guoli. Even those corpses that have already died, they will not let go of many corpses. The indigenous people hate Chu people to death.
"What should we do if we have no way?" At this time, there are only a dozen people left in the Chu Kingdom, facing the biggest dilemma in their lives. In front of them are the aborigines swarming up, and behind them is a cliff. This is the establishment of the Chu people. The location of the selected stronghold depends on where they can light a bonfire to guide their ships here
"No boat, no one to rescue us, we are finished." The last Chu people felt great despair, no reinforcements, no way out, and all hope of life was gone.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" the natives were chasing after them and they rushed up slowly
"Fighting" Some Chu people think that they should take a few extra lives in exchange for a few more lives before they die anyway. In such a desperate environment, it is easy for people to have such thoughts. Soon this Chu native Just rushed into the crowd of natives with a bayonet-tipped rifle
"Come on!" The people who followed up quickly rushed over, and more and more people rushed over with the same idea.
"Pfft" the bayonet went through the body "ah" a spear passed through the back of the Chu man, and the Chu man died tragically in the hands of the native
"Bang" Some people even fired a shot and smashed their opponents to death with the butt of their guns, but the aboriginal people who quickly gained the absolute advantage responded to their attitude with their weapons
"Ah!" There were a few more screams, and soon several Chu people fell to the ground, and they all died in battle before the feet of the indigenous people.
"What should we do?" said a man from Chu State with a leg injury, using a gun as his crutch
"Can we still fight?" A man from Chu State smiled.
With a "bang" gunshot, the Chu man ended his life with the pistol in his hand, and the injured Chu man was startled by the sudden situation
"What should we do?" The injured Chu people looked at it and asked
"What should I do? I think it might be a way out." A Chu man saw the sea behind him and made up his mind to jump into it.
"Ah!" the Chu man shouted loudly
At this time, the aborigines were getting closer and closer, and they could catch them in just a few steps. The people of Chu, who were unwilling to die in a panic, just jumped down like this.
Those who did not want to be killed by the natives also jumped down
The waves of the sea beat fiercely on the cliffs, and the loud noise covered up the sound of their jumping into the sea. In this way, the desperate state of Chu disappeared in the eyes of the indigenous people.
Then the aborigines returned to the stronghold of the Chu people, they set fire to everything they could burn, and took everything they could take away. As for the corpses in retaliation, they were all extremely barbaric. Because their souls are still there. This is the thinking of the indigenous people themselves.
After all this is done, the natives return victorious to their tribal settlements and hold their victory meeting
The Chu people need to reflect on the fact that this battle is difficult to be recorded in history because he is too small to hold the entire battle process, but this is indeed the first large-scale colonial expansion of the Chu people. battle
The result of the battle was that the Chu people were completely defeated. After several days, another ship carrying slaves arrived and found that their stronghold no longer existed, and they also found some companions who were almost savages. They were all Chu people who jumped into the sea to escape. These stories are passed down from their mouths. If there are no survivors, the story cannot be passed on.
The ship passed empty and they didn't have any slaves to return to and they suffered a lot of losses over 100 men were defeated in two days only a handful of men survived the battle was too fierce
Those who survived tell stories of their experiences while businessmen counted their losses and those who listened to the stories wondered one thing they were giving back and moving forward what was the point of doing it
However, they will soon have their own preliminary selection interests as their reference, and they will know what to choose. The slave trade is an extremely profitable industry, and this industry can make a fortune very quickly. This is a huge opportunity, and only by seizing the opportunity can it become be rich and live the life they want
The failure of the Chu people is justified. First, their power is very weak. Because the slave trade has just started, they have just established a preliminary slave trade base. They want to continue to expand the slave trade through this base, but after all, it has just begun, so their power is still. Weak fighters have a total of more than 100 people and nearly 200 people, and the weapons used are only entry-level weapons opened in the age of weapons
The second is that this is an overseas operation. They are far away from the mainland and enter a completely unfamiliar environment, and the aboriginals of the opponent are very familiar with the local environment. This geographical strangeness makes it difficult for them to launch a decent military operation. That is to say, because of this strangeness. They feel that it is difficult for them to send a powerful armed force to intervene, and they cannot disrupt the other party's military operations in advance. Speaking of which, the strangeness of geography makes it difficult for them to gain a great chance of winning in this battle.
The third point is their weapons. They lack the offensive weapons that can attack opponents from a long distance. The people of Chu did not even use weapons such as bows and crossbows. There may be many reasons for this, but the most important thing is that their funds are not in place, but the lack of weapons is a fact. They don't have weapons that are lethal enough to fight against their opponents, especially in terms of heavy firepower, they don't have artillery that can completely suppress their opponents, so that the opponents will quickly counterattack, and the war is lost under such circumstances.
Anyway the people of Chu lost the first battle and suffered a lot but they will get back on their feet soon because they will never give up this super lucrative business
Moreover, the slave trade has just begun. The huge curtain of the slave trade and the slave war has just begun. The Chu people are not willing to give up like this. Momentum for external expansion
And the aborigines don't know anything about what's going on outside. They don't know what's going on in the outside world yet, but they know that enjoying the present is the most important thing they should do.
And the Chu people are learning from this lesson, and the businessmen are beginning to realize that it is not so easy to conquer the locals, especially the locals have an advantage in firepower, numbers, and geographical advantages. It is the first time for the Chu people to arrive in such an unfamiliar environment. They didn't even know that they could use their own weapon advantages to beat the opponent at the beginning, but once the opponent counterattacked, the tragedy of the Chu people happened. In the end, it was caused by the unequal strength of the two sides. What they have to do now is to change this situation. This situation can only be changed by increasing one's own strength
But the problem is always this snake swallowing its own tail problem The problem is back to where it started They still lack a lot of money for the slave trade
"We should buy more guns and more cannons to deal with those aborigines. Those aborigines are too barbaric. We can't even kill them with muskets. They are so barbaric," said a man from Chu State after hearing the rumors. Feeling very scared, he has been looking for a way. He thinks his weapons should be as powerful as those used by the people of Qin to accomplish what they want.
"Humph," a businessman thought disdainfully after hearing the conversation
You poor people know that buying guns and cannons I don’t get money for nothing, it’s earned bit by bit. How much money can I make from selling slaves? give some
How much money does the gun cost and how much does the cannon cost?
"Sigh..." the businessman sighed again in a blink of an eye, he really couldn't understand why a person equipped with such a good weapon was defeated all of a sudden, and this time he had to pay so much
Said the businessman shook his head, he really couldn't think of any good ideas
The businessman fell into deep thought again. Since war is not enough, then use other methods. As long as there are business opportunities, there are always many ways. This is worthy of recognition.
The situation in Qin State has deteriorated again
"Dig, dig, dig every day." A Qi soldier complained that since their last attack on the Qin army, their entire attack has stopped. Many people are very happy because they think that they can avoid going to death.
"Okay, dig it, you can still live digging the soil and see the people buried here under the mound, just think about it, you can keep your life, you can eat, drink, and sleep Those people will always wake up I won't come anymore," a veteran scolded while digging.
"I know, I know," Xiaobing scolded
"Don't know, I think you don't know how uncomfortable it is to die. Think about how terrible it is. So many people died overnight, and those who were shot, they couldn't survive. It's so pitiful to lose their lives like this." veteran said
"You know how to save your life" said
"Don't you don't know how to save your life? It's hard to say. Look at how many people around you. How did you get shot that night when you talked to you before? I saw that miserable," the veteran said.
