Chapter 3062
The estuary of the Chicano River on the east coast of the bay, which was the default control zone boundary between Spain and Haihan a few days ago, has now been occupied by the Haihan army.
Wang Anbang brought a large group of people here to guard the Spanish prisoners who surrendered ashore.
The Haihan army prepared a large number of shackles and ropes in advance, and there were also special Spanish translators holding iron horns to remind the prisoners to put down their weapons and line up to land. Those who resisted and tried to escape would be killed on the spot.
And for these Spaniards who survived the fierce battle by chance, there is no other choice at this time.There were many Haihan warships cruising back and forth on the nearby sea, and the small boats they were in had nowhere to escape. They could only follow the instructions given by the Haihan warships and row the small boats to the designated place to land and surrender.
Every time a person landed, Haihan soldiers stepped forward and handcuffed his hands behind his back, and then tied ten captives in a team with ropes to prevent them from escaping.
Occasionally, there are a few thorns who chirp and refuse to cooperate, and they will be beaten to the ground by a mess of sticks and howling.However, the soldiers would not kill them, because the superiors expressly prohibited the killing of prisoners without reason, and even sent a military doctor to treat the injuries of these prisoners.
Looking at the disgraced guys in front of him, Wang Anbang didn't have any sympathy in his heart.If it weren't for the need to keep these prisoners of war as coolies, he wouldn't care about the life and death of these people.
Wearing a white armband, the military doctor who was examining the wounds of the prisoners of war was one of Morgan's many apprentices, and he was a few years older than Wang Anbang.However, this apprentice is a leading art investment teacher, and he joined Morgan's school much later than Wang Anbang, so the young Wang Anbang is actually a senior.
"Junior Brother Zhang, those who are seriously injured and cannot be saved, don't worry about their life and death, and don't waste our things." Wang Anbang reminded.
The military doctor surnamed Zhang hesitated for a moment, but still nodded, expressing that he would act according to his wishes.
The various wound medicines and medical equipment used by the military doctors are almost all transported from the country, and their value is already difficult to calculate with money.It's fine to use these precious medicines on his own people, but Wang Anbang is really reluctant to use them to treat these foreign prisoners of war.
However, his attention was quickly attracted by a ship of prisoners who had just arrived ashore, because there was actually a man who looked like an officer on board, who was carried ashore by other prisoners tied behind his back.
Wang Anbang called an interpreter and told him to go and ask what was going on.
This unlucky ghost who was tied up by his own people was DeSantis who was mutinied on the San Carlos.
DeSantis had imagined various situations before the battle, but he never imagined that he would fall into a mutiny during the battle.And those lowly and lowly sailors dared to mutiny at such a critical time, he couldn't help but wonder if there were spies from the Haihan people on board.
After Wang Anbang knew the identity of De Santis, he also approached the Spanish officer curiously, and then called the general doctor to check on De Santis' physical condition.
Such a high-ranking officer can't just throw it into the pile of prisoners of war.The information held by DeSantis must be invaluable to Haihan, and it must be carefully examined.
Although the group of sailors who tied up DeSantis and sent them to surrender did not receive any special treatment for the time being, Wang Anbang told them that they would be freed as soon as possible after the war and would not be reduced to slaves.
In the afternoon of the same day, the battlefield was cleaned up, and the statistics of the battle results were basically summarized.The Spanish fleet invested a total of 22 ships in this campaign, with more than [-] sailors and crew members. After the battle, more than [-] people were captured. The rest were either killed in battle or disappeared.
Even if you are lucky enough to swim ashore, the east and south sides of the bay are the territory of Haihan and the local indigenous tribes respectively. Without transportation and supplies, the possibility of escaping San Diego Bay is very slim.
As for the Spanish ships participating in the war, except for the part that had capsized and sank in the bay, the remaining ships also suffered varying degrees of damage.The Haihan Army could only drag a few of the ships that were still movable to the coast and run aground, unload the materials on board, and then check whether the damage to the hull was worth repairing.
In order to confirm the identity of De Santis, the magistrate Aragones was also specially invited.Before that, he cooperated with Haihan's battle plan very well, and his credibility was obviously much higher than that group of sailors who launched the mutiny.
Aragones didn't expect Haihan to capture DeSantis alive so smoothly. From his position, he didn't want to meet DeSantis again. After all, the destruction of this fleet was inseparable from him. relationship.
Sure enough, the moment DeSantis saw Aragones appear, he became emotional immediately, his eyes seemed to be on fire. If there were not two Haihan soldiers holding him down one by one, he would have rushed over to bite him. Aragones took a sip.
Although DeSantis couldn't move, he still stared at Aragones and cursed.Although most of the people present did not understand Spanish, just by looking at DeSantis' reaction, one could roughly guess how intense his scolding was.
Aragones was expressionless and did not respond to DeSantis, but nodded to Morgan to confirm DeSantis' identity.
Morgan asked Aragones, "Have you nothing to say to him?"
Aragones shook his head and said, "It's pointless to say anything now. Everything that should be said has been said before the war."
Aragones asked DeSantis to take action several times before that. Even if Haihan could not be defeated, he should try to lead his fleet away from San Diego Bay to relieve the pressure on the local colonial settlements.
But DeSantis wanted to wait for the perfect fighter to appear, and turned a deaf ear to Aragones' request.And this fleet has been standing still, and the expectations of the local people have gradually evaporated, and support has gradually turned into resistance.
After witnessing today's confrontation at sea with his own eyes, Aragones is even more certain that no matter what tactics De Santis adopts, he will eventually be defeated on the battlefield.Since his original judgment was correct and the fleet could not escape the fate of destruction, he didn't feel guilty about exchanging the safety of the local Spanish immigrants with everything he had.
But now that Aragones' last reliance is gone, how the situation will develop next depends on whether Haihan will keep his pre-war promise.If Morgan repented and did not follow the agreement reached between the two parties before the war, then Aragones would not be able to make any resistance at all.
