Zhao Wen said that he would launch an attack on the red barbarians on Zeelandia City. For convenience, Zheng Yiguan gave the young man to Zhao Wen.
Zhao Wen only knows English and doesn't know much about these languages.
"Back to the adults, the villain can not only speak the language of Hongyi, but also the language of Frangji." The young man said proudly.
"In this case, it's easy to handle. Next, if I say something, you can translate what I said into Hongyi's language and shout it out to them. The voice must be louder." Zhao Wen looked at the young man and said road.
The young man patted his chest and said loudly: "My lord, don't worry, I will definitely take care of it for you."
Zhao Wen nodded, then looked at the Hongyi soldiers holding matchlock guns, and shouted towards the inside: "Listen to everyone inside, everyone put down their weapons, kneel down and surrender, otherwise they will be killed without mercy. "
Listening to Zhao Wen's voice, Putmans' face was full of confusion.
Although Putmans is the governor of Zeelandia, he does not understand Chinese.
The adjutant who knew Chinese in the Governor's Mansion was killed in the previous defense battle, and now Putmans couldn't understand Zhao Wen's words at all.
After a few breaths, the young man's voice sounded again.
The language this time is no longer the unfamiliar Chinese for Putmans, but a language he can understand.
After the young man finished shouting, the expression on Putmans' face changed again and again, which was very exciting.
"Go on, tell them, if they don't kneel and surrender within half a quarter of an hour, we will shoot." Zhao Wen looked at the silent Hong Yi inside, and shouted to the young man.
The young man cleared his throat, and after a few breaths, he shouted into the inside.
Listening to this voice, Putmans had a wry smile on his face.
He turned his head, looked at Siviri who also had a wry smile on his face, and said helplessly: "Surrender, do what these people say, surrender, if you don't surrender, they will really shoot."
The previous scene had completely frightened Putmans, and now he didn't even have the thought of resisting.
"Then surrender, I don't want to bear the feeling of the gunfire before, it's too terrifying." Siviri's body trembled non-stop when he thought of the previous scene.
Putmans raised his hands and slowly walked out from the crowd. He threw the pistol in his hand on the ground and looked at Zhao Wen in horror.
"We surrender, we lay down our arms and surrender," Putmans yelled outside.
The young man listened to the voice, took a few breaths, and explained it to Zhao Wen.
"My lord, this group of Hongyi said they surrendered."
Zhao Wen nodded, pointed at Putmans, and said, "Tell them, if they want to survive, they should throw all the weapons on the ground, and then kneel on the ground scattered."
The young man nodded, organized his words, and then shouted at Putmans.
Putmans turned around hastily, pointed at the soldiers behind him, and shouted, "Hurry up, do what they say."
In fact, even if Putmans didn't say anything, these soldiers would throw down all their weapons and kneel on the ground respectfully.
After a dozen or so breaths, all the soldiers in the yard, together with Putmans and Siviri, also knelt on the ground, quietly waiting for Zhao Wen's arrival.
Looking at the scene in the courtyard, Zhao Wen waved his hand and led more than 1000 soldiers into it.
As soon as they walked in, they kicked all their weapons aside.
As for the captives kneeling on the ground, they were also tied up with ropes and strung together into several strings.
"Are you the governor of Zeelandia?" Zhao Wen asked Putmans, who was tied up.
Just now, it was this person who stood up to answer the question. In addition, the style of clothes on this person was quite different from the others, and he looked a little dignified, so Zhao Wen decided that this person was the governor of Zeelandia City.
Putmans looked at Zhao Wen with doubts on his face.
The young man standing next to Zhao Wen looked at Putmans' puzzled expression and hurriedly translated.
After a while, Putmans nodded at Zhao Wen non-stop, "I am Putmans, the governor of Zeelandia City, what can I do for you?"
At this moment, Putmans is like a little chicken, his face is full of respect and fear, where is the arrogance before?
The young man translated Putmans' words to Zhao Wen.
Zhao Wen shook his hand and said indifferently: "It's nothing, let's detain these people first."
After Zhao Wen finished speaking, he led dozens of soldiers towards the hall of the Governor's Mansion.
Zhao Wen looked at the gate of the Governor's Mansion, and said to the soldiers behind him, "Kick this gate open!"
Zhao Wen gave an order, and five soldiers walked out behind them, and kicked violently at the gate of the Governor's Mansion.
After a few breaths, the door of the hall was directly kicked open.
The moment the door was kicked open, several exclamations came from the hall.
Zhao Wen frowned when he heard the voice inside.
"There are women in here?" Zhao Wendisheng said, leading the soldiers behind him into the room.
As soon as he walked in, the exclamation inside became louder.
Zhao Wen glanced at the situation in the hall, and then said: "Get me out of all the people in the hall, and after they get out, search the entire Governor's Mansion, get everyone out of the hall, and gather in the Governor's Office." In the open space outside the mansion."
A few quarters of an hour later, all the people in the Governor's Mansion had been gathered in the open space outside the Governor's Mansion.
In addition to the people who got out of the governor's mansion, the remaining soldiers also found about fifty survivors in the city of Zeelandia.
These survivors didn't even dare to look at these soldiers, and all lowered their heads.
Zhao Wen sat on a stone outside the open space. He pointed to Putmans in the center of the open space and said, "Bring him to me. I have something to ask him."

Chapter 311 Design
Zhao Wen looked at Putmans standing in front of him respectfully, and asked, "What is the deployment of your troops in Java and the specific situation?"
The young man standing beside Zhao Wen translated Zhao Wen's words.
Putmans listened to the language translated by the young man, and looked at Zhao Wen's cold eyes, feeling uneasy.
Obviously, the reason why Zhao Wen asked this question was because he was thinking about Java.
Putmans had personally experienced Zhao Wen's firepower. Even if he didn't know the deployment of Java's troops, he could easily sweep Java.
If he knew, it would definitely be easier to uproot the power of the empire in Java.
Putmans looked at Zhao Wen, and suddenly became entangled.
Java was finally occupied by the empire. The empire can get a lot of money in Java every year, and Java is also the main transportation route for the empire to conquer the east. If Java is lost, it will have a great impact on the empire.
But if I don't say it, then people like me might not survive tomorrow, but if I say it, even if I escape in the future and let the empire know, the empire will not let me go.
Either way, it was a death, which made Putmans tangled for a while.
Although Putmans was the governor of Zeelandia, he didn't know much about the deployment of troops in Java, only a little bit.
The expression on Putmans' face changed again and again. He looked at Zhao Wen and was speechless for a long time.
Zhao Wen looked at the melancholy Putmans, and scolded impatiently: "Hurry up, or I will send you to heaven."
Although Putmans couldn't understand Zhao Wen's words, he could feel a trace of murderous intent from Zhao Wen's words.
The young man translated Zhao Wen's words.
Putmans breathed a sigh of relief and said with a troubled face: "Although I am the governor of Zeelandia, I don't know the deployment of troops in Java, and I don't know the deployment of troops in the entire city of Batavia. .”
When the young man explained this sentence to Zhao Wen, a murderous intent flashed in Zhao Wen's eyes. Zhao Wen looked at the young man with a gloomy face, and said coldly: "Are you sure you don't know? I advise you to Think about it carefully, you are in my hands now, I advise you to think about it."
When the young man translated Zhao Wen's words, Putmans became anxious for a moment.
He looked at Zhao Wen, tearing up, and shouted: "I really don't know, I really don't know, even if you kill me, I don't know."
Zhao Wen looked at Putmans who was already frightened, and said to the soldiers guarding him, "Pull him down."
Putmans looked at the soldiers who pulled him down, thinking that Zhao Wen was going to kill him, so he hurriedly shouted.
Zhao Wen looked at the back of Putmans leaving, and a bold plan gradually emerged in Zhao Wen's mind.
"Even if you know the deployment of your troops, it will be more troublesome to deal with. It's better to let you gather together and kill them all at once, uprooting them."
Zhao Wen stood up, looked at the gradually sinking sun in the sky, and said to the guards beside him, "Bring me Song Hu, Zhao Daniu and Mao Chengmei."
After a while, the three stood beside Zhao Wen.
Zhao Wen looked at them and asked, "How is the situation in the city now?"
Song Hu cupped his hands at Zhao Wen, and said, "My lord, everything in the city is normal now, and we have cleared out the corpses in the city. Besides these things, we also found a large number of silver ingots in the city."
"Is there any silver? It seems that these Hongyi did not send out the looted silver. Okay, let's not talk about this. If it is going to be dark today, there are still some suitable camps outside the city. Set up camp first." Bar.
Tomorrow, the entire city of Zeelandia will be cleaned up. All the rubble in the city will be cleared out. I plan to build a city here in the future. "Zhao Wen looked at a few people and said his plan.
"The subordinates take orders." The three of them clasped their fists at Zhao Wen and said loudly.
......
Early the next morning, the entire city of Zeelandia became a busy construction site. Under the command of Zhao Wen, the [-] soldiers took off their armor and carried out simple maintenance on the city of Zeelandia. .
In fact, the bastion of Zeelandia City is not bad in this era, but it just met Zhao Wen.
If it is a weapon of this era, it is not so easy to attack the city of Zeelandia.
In history, when Zheng Chenggong recaptured the city of Zeelandia, he led the army to storm it for a long time without taking it down.
At that time, there were only more than 2000 defenders in the city of Zeelandia, and Zheng Chenggong had tens of thousands of troops in his hands, but even so, he still did not take down the city of Zeelandia.
In the end, a long-term siege was adopted. When the food and grass in the city of Zeelandia were exhausted, the soldiers inside could not hold on before leaving the city and surrendering.
Otherwise, it would not be so easy to regain the city of Zeelandia.
During the period of the siege, reinforcements from Hongyi continued to come, and these reinforcements were defeated one by one by Zheng Chenggong.
The bastion is quite a perverted existence now that there are no powerful firearms.
Zhao Wen thought that the future Zeelandia City would be built according to the specifications of the Bastion.
However, the current scale is far from enough, at least it must be able to accommodate [-] soldiers.
While Zhao Wen led the soldiers to clean up Zeelandia, Putmans and other prisoners were detained by Zhao Wen in a simple cell built with wooden piles.
The cell is surrounded by tall wooden stakes, and the gaps between the wooden stakes are barely enough for hands to be stretched out.
Putmans and Siviri and some of their subordinates were imprisoned in this cell.
The others were detained by Zhao Wen in another place.
It was Zhao Wen's intention to imprison Putmans, Siviri and their subordinates in one place.
Around this cell, there was only one soldier at this time.
The soldier was holding a 56 punch, leaning against the wooden stake outside the cell, his face was full of sleepiness.
Putmans squatted in the cell, looking at the drowsy soldier, a hint of excitement appeared on his face.
He looked at Siviri and pointed at the soldier.
A hint of excitement appeared in Siviri's eyes. He squeezed in front of Putmans, pointed at the drowsy soldier, and asked softly, "What do you want to do?"
Putmans looked at the key hanging on the soldier's waist, and said in a low voice: "Those soldiers are now paying attention to the city of Zeelandia, and this cell is far away from the city of Zeelandia. Now there is only one soldier in custody. , I think we have a great chance of escaping."
Siviri said: "How sure are you?"
"Don't worry about how sure it is, as long as you can escape. These soldiers are extremely fierce. If we don't escape in time, there is a high chance that we will be killed by this group of people." When Putmans thought of Zhao Wen's attitude towards his captives, his heart shuddered for a while.
Siviri thought for a moment, then said: "In that case, let's do it. Just rush out, there are our warships on the harbor outside.
The sailors with me are just enough to start a battleship, and then we will escape in the battleship. Siviri looked back at his subordinates behind him, and said to Putmans.
"It's daytime now. It's not so easy to drive the battleship out. I think we should act at night."
"I think so too, but our main purpose now is to get the keys hanging from the waists of the soldiers outside. Only after we get the keys in our hands can we have the capital to escape, otherwise, everything will be lost." It's empty talk."
The two squatted in the cell, looking at the drowsy soldiers outside the cell, discussing non-stop.
The drowsy soldier leaned against them, sitting on the ground, leaning his back against the wooden stake of the cell, nodding his head constantly, looking extremely sleepy.
However, if you look at it from the front, you can see that the soldier is not asleep, and there is not even a trace of tiredness on his face.
This soldier is none other than the young man who translated for Zhao Wen.
He was wearing a military uniform, and the helmet on his head was pressed extremely low, covering most of his face, so Putmans didn't recognize him.
The young man kept nodding his head, pretending to be extremely sleepy, and listened to the conversation between Putmans and Siviri.
