Chapter 796: Trap

"Give me three more days to think about it. Read М" The attitude of the King of Yan was equally firm, and Feiwen was afraid.

Worried that the King of Yan would launch an attack immediately, he found an excuse.

Then, he left in a daze, not knowing how he walked out of Lujiao City and came to the dock.

When he boarded the warship, his legs suddenly softened and he fell to the ground.

Other Portuguese officers immediately helped him up.

"What's wrong with the Governor?" one person asked.

"The King of Yan has declared war on us, and he wants to attack Marka City." Feiwen said slowly.

The other officers were all shocked when they heard this.

Then, Feiwen told them the conditions proposed by the King of Yan.

After the officers heard it, no one blamed Feiwen. If it were any of them, they would not dare to agree to the King of Yan.

How could they give up the colony they had run in the East for more than 200 years.

"It's time to join the East Alliance." An officer said.

Feiwen nodded. After he and Governor Sterdan went to Calcutta, he was very tempted to join the East Alliance.

The colony of the Sterdans was connected to the British, so they were in danger of losing each other.

Therefore, the Sterdans immediately agreed to Bolt's request.

Although he also wanted to join, Yizhou was too close to Dasong after all. He was afraid of angering King Yan and being bad for Marka City, so he was still hesitant.

But now that King Yan asked them to withdraw from Yizhou, he immediately regarded King Yan as an enemy.

Moreover, although his Portuguese were gradually declining in the West, they were once the first empire in the West.

Every Portuguese was very proud in his bones.

Moreover, after colonizing the East for more than 200 years, the people of the East were no different from the slaves of the Black Continent in their eyes.

In his heart, he was full of discrimination against the people of the East.

If it weren't for the fact that King Yan was too powerful, he didn't even want to put on a kind coat.

As for the fact that King Yan's troops saved him, he also provided information to King Yan, and they owed nothing to each other.

Thinking of this, he looked towards Lujiao City, his chest filled with murderous intent, "If we can defeat the King of Yan, we should kill all the people of Dasong, otherwise Dasong will be a disaster after all."

Looking at Marka City again, he said: "Go back, we will retreat to Manila. Marka City is an isolated city after all, and it cannot be defended at all. I lied to the King of Yan to give him three days to consider, which is enough for us to withdraw."

The officers nodded one after another.

However, just when they raised the sails and prepared to sail south, they suddenly found four steamships, towing the sailing warships to follow them, and getting closer and closer.

Fei Wen was shocked when he saw this, and secretly thought it was bad.

This King of Yan is smarter than he thought.

At the same time, on the dock.

Zhao Xu and Zhou Yi were looking at the Portuguese warships that were constantly going away.

Before leaving, Fei Wen suddenly changed his words and gave him three days to consider.

He believed it for the time being, but he was not a fool, and he believed what the other party said.

So, he decided to let four warships accompany Feiwen to the port of Marka City and keep an eye on them.

If war is unavoidable, the soldiers and wealth of Marka City should not think about leaving.

Otherwise, keep them and fight him together with the British?

"Let the Marines go too." The Portuguese warships were getting farther and farther away, and Zhao Xu gave Zhou Yi an order.

After saying yes, Pan Chang immediately led the Marines to advance along the coastline, directly from Beiyizhou to Marka City.

One day later, Feiwen returned to Marka City.

On the dock, he looked at the Yanwang warship floating on the sea in the distance, frowning.

Being stared at by the Yanwang warship, his evacuation plan could not be implemented.

After thinking for a while, he said to the officers: "There is no other way. We can only fight to the death with the King of Yan. Fortunately, they don't have many soldiers, so we may win."

After a pause, he continued: "You bury gunpowder barrels and fuses under the gates of Marka City and the roads in the city. Three days later, I will pretend to surrender to the King of Yan. When the King of Yan enters the city, you will light the gunpowder barrels and blow them up to the sky. Take advantage of the chaos to annihilate the King of Yan's army and solve the disaster of the East."

"Yes, Governor." The officers looked at each other and nodded slowly.

This is indeed a way. If it succeeds, they will get rid of the King of Yan, and maybe Dasong Jiangbei will be in turmoil.

Their Marka City can be saved.

Back in Marka City, the officers immediately led the soldiers to bury gunpowder barrels.

At the same time, the city gates were closed, and the people on the island were prohibited from entering and leaving Marka City.

On weekdays, Marka City's supplies not only rely on Manila's supplies, but also get them from the island people they enslaved.

Therefore, the people on the island often went in and out of Marka City to transport goods.

In Yizhou, the four courts had already arranged spies to collect intelligence.

These spies were mixed in with these people, and the unusual movements in Marka City were naturally detected by them.

The spies outside the city immediately sent out the news that Marka City was sealed off.

The spies in the city who could not get out watched the every move of the Portuguese soldiers, waiting for an opportunity to send out the news.

Three days later, Zhao Xu and the Marines arrived at the foot of Marka City.

Fei Wen immediately ordered the city gate to be opened and a white flag to be hung on the city wall.

Zhao Xu frowned slightly when he saw it.

At this moment, he was aware of the unusual movements in Marka City, but he was not sure what happened in the city.

So he whispered to Pan Chang a few times.

Pan Chang nodded, and immediately stepped forward to the Portuguese officer in front of the city gate and said: "Your Highness said that since you surrender, you should show your sincerity. How can you accept the surrender in the city? You must all surrender outside the city."

The officer immediately passed Zhao Xu's order to Fei Wen.

After hesitating for a moment, Fei Wen said to the officer: "This King Yan is really careful, but that's all we can do. Let the soldiers who light the fuse be hidden. As soon as King Yan arrives at the city gate, he will light the fuse."

After that, he left the governor's palace, led the soldiers and officers out of Marka City, lined up in front of the city gate, and threw away their muskets.

"Your Highness King Yan, I have figured it out and am willing to live in peace with Da Song." Fei Wen stood in front of the soldiers and said to Zhao Xu with a sincere face, "Now, all the soldiers in Marka City have surrendered to Your Highness. Your Highness should believe me." Are you sincere?"

Zhao Xu nodded. If it weren't for the information provided by the Fourth Academy, Fei Wen's performance would have been flawless.

Smiling softly, he said: "Don't be anxious. One of my men entered Marka City three days ago and has not come out again. When my soldiers find him, it will not be too late to accept your surrender."

After that, he gave Pan Chang a look, and Pan Chang ordered a group of soldiers to enter the city to look for the informants of the Fourth Courtyard.

Fei Wen suddenly had beads of sweat on his forehead.

He could not guarantee that when his soldiers buried the gunpowder barrels, they were not seen by the people who entered the city at that time.

Now, these people are being detained by him in prison. If they are found out, his plan will be exposed.

Thinking of this, his palms broke into cold sweat.

The officers of Folangji were equally anxious after hearing this.

An officer realized that he was about to be exposed. He immediately became heartbroken and said to the soldiers: "Pick up the flintlock and fight with them."

The soldiers near him received the order and immediately bent down to pick up the flintlock muskets on the ground.

"It is indeed a conspiracy, Your Highness, be careful!" Pan Chang stood in front of Zhao Xu and shouted at the same time, "Grenade."

At this moment, the two armies were only about thirty meters apart.

After receiving his order, the Marines quickly took off the grenade, pulled out the match rope and threw it towards the Franco army.

Because they were lining up to surrender, the Franco soldiers stood very densely.

An overwhelming barrage of grenades were thrown over them, and with the roar, they were immediately hit with heavy casualties.

Taking advantage of the chaos, the Marines loaded their bayonets and killed them.

The remaining Franco soldiers were stunned by the bombing and their morale was completely destroyed. How could they resist the wolf-like Marine soldiers and were quickly annihilated.
