    "The bow of the ship is turning thirty degrees to the left!" As the lookout hand on the top of the ship shouted, the soldiers on the ship immediately turned their heads. When they were in the army, they were required to learn literacy and arithmetic every night, especially  Some commonly used arithmetic knowledge must be mastered by every soldier. For example, like now, the lookout hand can point out the direction of the enemy using angles, and the archers below can also find the enemy immediately.

    "Whoosh~ Whoosh~" With the sound of several bows and arrows piercing the air, several long arrows were shot out like lightning, and a native on the river bank who was about to escape screamed, and was hit by two long arrows in the back.  One of them hit the back of the heart and would definitely not survive.

    The Dangu tribe is mainly engaged in farming and animal husbandry, but they also often go out for hunting. This place is far from the Dangu tribe¡¯s residence. Although there are many prey, it is also very dangerous, so there are not many hunters here. Since Cheng Huailiang and the others entered  Within the Dangu tribe's sphere of influence, they only encountered seven or eight hunters. Two of them were three or four hunters together, but this time a hunter acted alone.

    "Something's not right. With the level of danger here, it's impossible for the opponent to have only one hunter acting alone. It's probably that they have discovered our whereabouts, so the others went back to report!" Liu Kata said solemnly, he  Having lived here for several years, I naturally know the habits of the natives here very well.

    "This is also unavoidable. Inform other ships to move forward with all their strength and ignore the natives found on both sides!" Cheng Huailiang said calmly.  Ever since he entered the Dangu tribe's sphere of influence, he knew that he would be discovered by the local natives in advance, but as long as they were fast enough, they didn't have to worry about the other party escaping.

    Liu Kata¡¯s guess was very correct. A hunting team of natives indeed discovered them, and these people from the Dangu tribe also recognized their origins.  Everyone looked panicked at the moment.  However, these hunters who were out were all elites in the tribe, so they quickly thought of the best way to deal with it, which was to send people to notify the tribe and at the same time organize to harass the progress of the fleet, so as to give the tribe more time.  Prepare.

    However, Cheng Huailiang was determined and knew very well what his goal was this time. Therefore, he did not even look at the harassing natives on both sides of the river, and some ladies even shot arrows at the boat.  Cheng Huailiang did not let the soldiers fight back. Instead, he erected baffles on both sides of the ship. This ten-inch-thick baffle, not to mention native bows and arrows, even an ordinary bed crossbow had a longer distance and could not be penetrated.  .

    Seeing the Han soldiers on the ship, they ignored them.  The hunters on both sides of the Taiwan Strait seemed even more anxious. After all, tribes were their foundation, and there were a large number of women and children in the tribes. If these fierce Han soldiers broke in, their tribes would be finished. Therefore, even though they knew  The arrows were useless, but they kept shooting in vain.

    At this time, the speed of the car and ship also reached its fastest speed.  Going upstream along the Sarawak River, I quickly left the hunters behind. The other natives I met on the way had no time to stop them and could only follow behind in a futile pursuit.

    soon.  Cheng Huailiang found that the forests on both sides of the river disappeared, and what appeared in front of them were patches of rice fields, although the cultivation of these rice fields was very primitive.  There are a lot of weeds growing in the fields, but it is indeed artificially grown rice.  Not far from this rice field, a simple wooden camp stood there.

    Seeing the camp in the distance, Cheng Huailiang and the soldiers were shocked. The hard work of several days finally paid off. Their goal was right in front of them. What made them even more happy was that the Dangu tribe opposite looked in chaos.  , it must have just been received not long ago, and even the resistance has not yet been fully organized.

    "Get to the shore! Land!" As Cheng Huailiang shouted, eleven vehicles and ships quickly approached the shore. Some anxious soldiers jumped into the thigh-deep water and walked ashore before the ships could fully dock.  Prepare for defense under the command of the general.  Although in this case, they are unlikely to encounter an enemy attack, fighting is not a child's play. A small negligence at any time may plunge the entire army into an abyss of eternal destruction. Therefore, Cheng Hualiang will not allow it no matter when and where.  His own men looked down upon their opponents.

    Although Cheng Huailiang and the others are in the Army, because most of Li Min's territories are on islands, the Army's status is more like that of the Marine Corps in later generations. What they usually train the most is landing warfare. After Cheng Huailiang came to Taiwan, he also made up for it.  With this knowledge, the 550-man army completed the landing almost in the blink of an eye.

    "The whole army obeys the order, all enemies will be killed without mercy!" As Cheng Huailiang's cold order came out, the eyes of all the soldiers became extremely cold. They did not know in advance what the goal of this mission was to achieve, but when Cheng Huailiang said  When they said the words "Kill without mercy", they finally knew that they were the ones above to eradicate the evil, and all the people of the Dangu tribe were their enemies.

      Liu Kata was also startled by the changes in the army around him. He had been in the slave-catching team for many years and had killed many people. Naturally, there was nothing in the world that could scare him, but now although he  Although he knew that Cheng Huailiang and the others were one of his own, it still made him feel a little scared. It seemed that the army was the army, and it was not comparable to their original slave-catching team.

    Under the leadership of Cheng Huailiang, the entire army rushed towards the Dangu tribe as quickly as possible.  Although the Dangu tribe has a large number of people, it is only a tribe after all. It does not have a standing army at all in peacetime. When a war occurs, it only temporarily recruits the strong men of the tribe to participate. Therefore, when they received the news that the Han army took the initiative to attack, they first  The first step was to organize strong men to resist, but the news of the Han attack had thrown the entire tribe into chaos, and it was impossible to organize many men in a short time.

    It is precisely for this reason that when Cheng Huailiang and others rushed into the village of Dangu tribe, the leader of the tribe led three to four hundred strong men to resist. Unfortunately, how could these ragtag groups be the opponents of more than five hundred regular troops?  As soon as they made contact, Cheng Huailiang and the others were like tigers entering a flock of sheep. The first few rows of natives were cut down to the ground in the blink of an eye. Whether it was equipment or training, the soldiers in Cheng Huailiang's hands far exceeded these natives.

    "Kill!" Cheng Huailiang held up a large horizontal knife and slashed at a stronger native in front of him. The opponent raised the harpoon in his hand to block it, but unfortunately the wooden handle could not block it at all.  With Cheng Huailiang's powerful and heavy blow, not only was the harpoon cut in half, but he was also split into two pieces from head to toe by Cheng Huailiang, with blood and internal organs scattered all over the floor.

    After wiping the blood on his face, Cheng Huailiang became even more excited. He roared and charged into the enemy formation again. With his immense strength, he killed several people in a row. The natives around him were so frightened that they retreated continuously, while the surrounding soldiers  His spirits were greatly boosted, and he slashed harder with his hands. However, in a moment, most of the three to four hundred people led by the tribal leader were killed. The rest were all frightened and ran wildly, without any trace of fear.  The courage to resist.

    The only resistance team was defeated, and Cheng Huailiang and the others were unstoppable. Under his command, all the troops were divided into teams of ten, with each commander responsible for leading the team, and then they broke into the native villages.  , whether they meet men or women, as long as they are from the Dangu tribe, they will all be massacred.

    Don't blame Cheng Huailiang and the others for their lack of humanity. For them, what they are facing now is a war. There is no right or wrong on the battlefield. They only know how to obey the orders issued by their superiors. As for whether this order is right or wrong, all of this has nothing to do with it.  It has nothing to do with them.

    There were at least 500 or 600 young and strong men in the large tribe of 3,600 people. Only half of them had been organized just now, and most of the rest were hiding in the villages. Therefore, Cheng Huailiang and the others were in the process of clearing out.  We often encounter raids by these people, causing casualties from time to time. However, this arouses the hatred of the soldiers. Each of them will transform into a beast that only knows killing, and even start setting fires around the village.

    The houses of the Dangu tribe are all made of wood and thatch, so they are easy to ignite. For a time, the entire village was filled with fireworks, mixed with screams and wails, and it looked like a hell on earth.

    The killing continued from noon to dusk. During this period, tribesmen from the Dangu tribe kept coming back. Unfortunately, they ended up being turned into cold corpses like other natives.

    Finally, in the center of the village, Cheng Huailiang and the others encountered the fiercest resistance. Whether they were men or women, they all held on like crazy because behind them was the sacrificial temple of the Dangu tribe, as well as the entire  A sacred place of tribal faith.  It's a pity that for Cheng Hualiang and others with rock-solid determination, the madness of these people only gave them an opportunity to focus on annihilation, but it also saved them a lot of trouble.

    When the last few old priests died under the bloody weapons of the soldiers, the entire Dangu tribe was finally wiped out. Although some natives took advantage of the chaos and escaped, the soldiers were very tired after half a day of fighting.  , In addition, the wounded also needed treatment, and these scattered natives could not make a difference, so Cheng Huailiang and the others were too lazy to pursue them.

    Cheng Huailiang and his men counted the casualties of the troops. Among them, there were only 76 people killed in the battle, but as many as 237 people were injured. Fortunately, most of them were minor injuries. The medicines brought on board should be able to deal with them. As for the serious ones,  The wounded can only be rescued by medical officers as best they can.

    By this time, it was completely dark, and the village was full of corpses. Cheng Huailiang and the others would not rest here. In addition, the bloody smell here might attract wild beasts in the jungle, so in the end they decided to go back to the boat to rest.

    When they woke up the next day, when Cheng Huailiang and the others were preparing to return, Liu Kata mysteriously prevented the army from leaving, and also asked Cheng Huailiang to take people to the village again.?
