James and his party floated in the bay in a lifeboat for a week, and all the dry food and fresh water they carried on them were exhausted.A dozen or so lifeboats escaped in the night, each small boat packed with surviving naval forces, and hundreds of British navy personnel survived.Due to the shortage of fresh water, there are already people on the boat who have fallen into a coma due to dehydration.In desperation, everyone rowed the lifeboat all the way north, and finally saw the land three days later.They often sailed this sea, and they knew in their hearts that this was Tamil territory.They didn't want to deal with these hostile barbarians until they had to.It's okay to do business with the Tamils on warships, but if you fall alone, you will be caught by these barbarians.The consequence is either steamed or boiled.Sure enough, as soon as the boat docked, they had barely climbed onto the beach when a black head emerged from the bushes not far away.Soon a gunshot rang out on the beach, and Steven's eyes were quick, so he pulled out the pistol on his waist and pulled the trigger.The Enfield Arsenal also made a pistol modeled after the shell gun of the Huaxing Army, which was worn by all officers at the rank of second lieutenant and above."
Steven, are you crazy" James snatched the pistol and shouted at Steven.The British troops who came ashore behind Steven were also about to shoot, but they were all stopped by James one by one.The black thing in the bushes was that of a Tamil child, no more than a teenager, clutching his chest and rolling to the ground, blood oozing from under his body, staining the beach red.There was a lot of movement in the bushes, as if there were still people hiding inside, but it seemed that they had fled in all directions."
Colonel, those children must be Tamil spies.If they had informed their people, we would have been eaten by these savages. ”Steven ordered a few more shots at the bushes, but when James stopped him, he was on the verge of crying."
Forget it, they're all kids.Let's hurry up and find some supplies and food nearby, just get out of here as soon as possible, don't provoke them" James waved his hand, not wanting to provoke anything else.More than a dozen lifeboats landed on the shore one after another, and James counted the number of people, and there were one hundred and twenty-three people.But twenty-three people have fallen into a coma due to dehydration, and only a hundred people can move.Fortunately, these people all carry foreign guns with them, and although they have limited ammunition, they always have the ability to protect themselves.They all understood that the Trincomalee Peninsula was inhabited by primitive people who used wooden sticks.Even if they come with 10,000 people, they are no match for these 100 people.As soon as the guns rang out, these barbarians would scatter as well.James didn't expect so many people to survive, and he drew crosses on his chest again and again to thank God.The best way to find food and water is to loot, or you have to follow the example of a monkey to pick coconuts and bananas from the trees.It was clear that the fruit could not be used as food for hundreds of people, and after deliberation between James and Steven, it was decided to resort to looting.When Western explorers entered a strange land, they would occupy it without killing.James can find it once with his conscience, but in the face of hunger, he still reveals the nature of a colonist.The soldiers held a short meeting and finally reached a decision.The 100 soldiers were temporarily organized into ten squads, and James led two squads to build fortifications on the beach to look after the soldiers who had fallen unconscious.Steven and eight squads go to find the village, looting food and fresh water.The two teams split up, and Steven lived up to expectations.Based on his experience in the army for many years, he first searched for the river, and then searched all the way up along the river.Finally, five kilometers away from the beach, a Tamil settlement was discovered.At this time, human settlements were generally located along rivers, and shallow well water was far from meeting the water demand.This large tribe of Tamils is home to hundreds of houses made of thatch and wood.As the smoke curls, the men and women of the tribe have just gotten up and started their busy day.They are hidden in this mountain forest, and they are completely like a paradise.Soon, the calm was shattered.Steven gave the order, and his eight squads screamed at the same time, rushing out of the woods like hungry jackals.The woman who was washing clothes by the river, the first to notice these fierce foreigners, all shouted in terror, got up and ran to the tribe.Steven immediately took the lead in firing a shot, and soon the gunfire was so loud that more than a dozen women were shot and fell to the ground.The alarm bells in the "Bell Bell" tribe also sounded, and soon the men who were preparing to hunt at home gathered with harpoons and sticks in their hands, and there were more than 200 people.With a contemptuous smile on his face, Steven continued to command his men to read the river."
Whoosh" A burst of arrows pierced the sky, and the British army was too careless, and the unsuspecting impact stepped forward, and two people fell to the ground with arrows."
Shoot, kill all these barbarians" Steven's eyes were full of sparks, and he was no longer polite to these barbarians, and directly gave the order to kill."
Bang, bang, bang" gunfire rang out, and the British soldiers formed an offensive gun formation.There is no longer any distinction between men, women, and children, as long as there are people who can be seen in sight, all of them are shot and killed.The men of the Tamil tribe rose up and attacked the British army, led by their chief, with weapons in their hands.Their whole body is only covered by a cloth on their lower body, and they are completely uncivilized tribes.The bullets fired in a volley, and the Tamils were soon beaten to pieces, and they fell in droves in pools of blood.The village was filled with terror, the screams of the women and the cries of the children.After the British entered the village, they searched room by room for the opening, and pulled the trigger whenever they saw someone.They were also merciful to young women, but soon they vented their bestial desires on women in groups of three or five.After holding back at sea for more than a month, some soldiers even held it even longer, even when they saw the sow's eyes were red.The small village was soon looted, and the British army reaped a lot of money, collecting hundreds of sacks of food and a dozen goats."
Assemble, assemble, get out of here" Steven saw that the time was almost there, and was worried that more Tamils would retaliate, so he hurriedly blew the whistle in his hand and shouted loudly."
F, U, C, K" "Hurry up for a bird's egg, Lao Tzu hasn't finished his work yet" "Chick, it's really cheap for you" The soldiers were enjoying themselves on the woman's belly, and when they heard the order to gather, they scolded and scolded dissatisfiedly.When they lifted their trousers, they turned their faces away from anyone and pulled the trigger on the poor woman, with playful smiles on their faces.Man's desire to destroy is always greater than his desire to build, when entering a place where there are no constraints.Whether it is a good person or a bad person, the animal desire on the body will be vividly expressed.Steven and his party returned to the beach with the loot, but there was no one near the lifeboat."
Colonel, Colonel, where are you" Steven looked around, with the raging sea behind him and the woods more than five hundred meters ahead.He had people shout into the woods for a long time, but no one answered."
Major Steven, maybe the colonel can't wait for us to come back, and go to find food himself, don't worry."
The soldier reminded Steven, and now there was only one explanation.They didn't have to worry about the barbarians coming to take revenge, because James had at least twenty men to defend with him.It is more than enough to deal with barbarians armed with wooden sticks."
Maybe, everyone quickly load all the food on the boat, and when we find the colonel, we will leave here" Steven was still a little uneasy in his heart, he always felt that this place was very strange, and hurriedly ordered half of his men to defend themselves on the beach, and half of his men to load all the food on the lifeboat."
Woo woo" A strange cry suddenly came from the forest across the beach, startling a burst of seabirds."
Get ready for battle, there's a situation," Steven chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly waved his hand at his subordinates.The soldiers of the eight squads soon formed an arc of guns, holding spears and keeping an eye on the movement in the forest.After only a moment's effort, a large number of figures suddenly sprang out of the forest, and surrounded the beach on three sides."
Bang, bang, bang" Steven didn't dare to slack off, and immediately let the soldiers pull the trigger and hit the front in unison.The bullets sent puffs of smoke and dust on the beach, but to Steven's surprise, the barbarians were all lying on the ground.The bullet grazed their bodies, and because they were more than 500 meters apart, they did not hit each other.What happened next made Steven even more stunned, and there was a gunshot in the direction of the barbarians opposite."
Crackling", after the British soldiers opened fire, a dense burst of gunfire rang out from the opposite side.The British army was caught off guard, and because the rain of bullets was too dense, half of the men and horses were overturned in an instant."
Quick, hide behind the lifeboat" Steven's hair stood on end, and he didn't think much about it, so he hid behind the lifeboat with the rest of the soldiers.The beach is empty, and there is no place to act as cover.The gunfire of the Tamils on the opposite side continued, and the dense bullets brushed into the lifeboat, drilling small holes one after another."
God, hell, how can these barbarians have the same weapons as us," the British soldiers screamed in horror, spears in their spears and continued to fight back against the attacking Tamils.Because of the limited ammunition, the gunfire on the British side soon became fragmented.Thousands of Tamils rushed up with spears, grinning and jumping at the British and pulling the trigger.The black pressure on the beach was full of figures, and people were constantly knocked down by bullets from the British army, but the people behind were not afraid, and still pulled the trigger and rushed forward.The bullets were fired from three sides, and the British could not avoid it, and after half of the dead and wounded, the others finally ran out of ammunition and surrendered with Steven in the lead
