Seeing the cavalry of the Tang Army, like a wild hurricane rolled up on the ground, rushing straight towards the city of Laoag, the Spanish soldiers who had just withdrawn from the city wall, everyone was frightened and turned pale.

www.biquge.info now, there are less than 200 Spanish soldiers left, and it is a time of chaos and disorganization, how can they resist these roaring Tang cavalry!

Gonzalez's face was as pale as paper, and now that he was seriously underarmed, he pinned his hope of holding the city of Laoag on the native soldiers on the city walls.

"You bastards, what are you still in a daze on the city wall, you must withdraw from Lao Tzu, you must block the attack of the Tang cavalry!" Seeing that the cavalry of the Tang Army was in a hurry to attack, Gonzalez angrily shouted at the natives on the three walls who had not yet had time to run. It's just that those native soldiers, although they heard his shout, watched each other, but no one wanted to go down. Although these soldiers are uneducated and uncivilized, they are not completely brainless fools. They knew that now that the city had been broken, the Spaniards were already dying, and the cavalry of the Tang Army were rushing into the city at such a fast pace, they were now going down, wouldn't they just accompany the Spaniards to die. Seeing these native soldiers hesitating and refusing to come down, Gonzalez's gray-blue eyes were suddenly filled with despair. He only flashed two words in his heart. Finished. Yes, it's over, there's no room for a turnaround at all. Because, at this moment, when the Spanish soldiers in the city were still in chaos, the 1,000 flying harrier cavalry of the Tang Army had rushed into the city of Laoag like a whirlwind, slashing fiercely and mercilessly at the chaotic Spanish soldiers. "Hold on! ......" Gonzalez could finish his sentence, and a sharp steel cavalry spear stabbed him through the throat fiercely, and then pulled it out again. A large cloud of blood gushed out from the wound in his throat, raising a bright red blood mist. Gonzalez, the commander of the city of Laoag, fell to the ground with a round glare. Countless galloping horses' hooves immediately trampled him into a meatloaf. The remaining hundred or so Spanish soldiers immediately collapsed. However, they fled in all directions or knelt on the ground to beg for surrender, and they were all killed by the Tang army when they landed, and there was nothing left. Seeing that all the Spanish troops in the city were wiped out, at this time, the native soldiers on the city wall, without hesitation, immediately raised the white flag and surrendered, put down the drawbridge, and let the Tang troops outside the other three city gates enter the city. Those who know the times are handsome, and if they don't hurry up and surrender, they will really go to hell and be the companion of those Spain. At this point, the siege of Laoag ended successfully. The Tang army, with the attitude of a victor, entered through three wide-open city gates. Next, Li Dingguo ordered the Tang army to count the results of the battle, accept the surrender of the natives, and send the civil officials of the Supervision Department to receive the money and grain treasury in the city. After a while, the statistical results came out. A total of 320 Spanish soldiers, including Gonzalez, the garrison of Laoag, were killed or killed, and nearly 1,000 native soldiers surrendered. In the city, there are more than 2,500 residents of all kinds, including nearly 400 family members of the Spaniards, all of whom are concentrated in the city square. Li Dingguo's acceptance of the surrender of those natives actually had his own considerations. Although these natives were forced to surrender to save their lives because of the might of their own army, it would be extremely useful if they could spare their lives. First of all, these native soldiers can be used to force the lead to attack the indigenous tribes in northern Luzon who do not obey the rule of the Tang army, so as to serve as cannon fodder for the Tang army to reduce the casualties of the Tang army. In addition, as the Tang army attacks the entire Luzon Island, the strength will definitely become more and more insufficient, so these native soldiers can also assist in defending the city to ensure the stability of the city. After arranging the surrender of the native soldiers, Li Xiao began to give a cruel order. "It is decreed by the official that all Spanish family members, but those who are higher than the wheels, shall be slaughtered by men and women, and there shall be no mistake. All family property was confiscated. "Li Dingguo had a cold face and coldly gave out the revenge plan he had formulated before the war." Order! Originally, according to Li Xiao's original idea, he wanted to completely retaliate and kill all the Spaniards. But Li Xiao thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to punish these Spanish invaders who had committed serious crimes against the Chinese only by killing men who were taller than the wheels. Compared with these Spaniards who killed all the Chinese, young and old, men and women, Li Xiao's approach can be said to have completely eradicated the troubles, but it showed the chivalry and great power bearing. As for these remnants of Spanish women and children, according to Li Xiao's plan, they were all shipped to Taiwan after the end of the war. Children were adopted by childless Han Chinese families, and women were forcibly married to local young unmarried Han Chinese. In a sense, women have no national identity. Due to their physiological structure, they can only submit to the strong, and become the vent and fertility tool of the strong. Therefore, after they intermarry with Han youth, their children naturally become part of the Han nationality. Soon, Li Dingguo's order was strictly implemented by the soldiers below. In a miserable cry, about one hundred and eighty Spanish men, pulled out of the crowd and right in the middle of the street, were beheaded on the spot. Some Spanish women, desperately trying to pull their husbands back, were kicked away by Tang soldiers. Several people who pulled too tightly and did not let go, the Tang soldiers were angry and immediately cut off their heads on the spot. Li Dingguo coldly watched the executioners of the Tang Army raise and fall with knives in their hands, killing people with their heads rolling, but their faces were expressionless and unmoved. Hmph, you guys, you guys, are still fortunate to be merciful to Lord Li, so you remnants of you have to save your life, otherwise, according to Lao Tzu's disposal, you will definitely kill all of you, and you can be considered to have solved the hatred in your heart. Soon, in the city of Laoag, all kinds of money and food were also reported. In this city of Laoag, there are about more than 20,000 stone of grain, but only more than 10,000 taels of silver, and in addition, there are only some ordnance and armor left. Li Dingguo couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it seems that Master Li said that the Spanish Empire was declining, its finances were in dire straits, and it was difficult to make ends meet. Such a weakened empire, which was once extremely vicious, should take this opportunity to deal it a fatal blow. Because it was getting late, all the soldiers of Li Dingguo's army were in the military camp of the former Spanish people in the city of Laoag, resting and waiting. Since Taiwan came south by boat, every soldier of the Tang Army was very tired, and only now can they really sleep well in their beds. Moreover, because of such a big victory, all the soldiers of the Tang Army were in a very comfortable mood and slept very sweetly. On such a quiet night, two cavalrymen marched south all the way to Manila in south-central Luzon. Under the bright moonlight, they galloped all the way, not daring to slack off. These two cavalrymen were the soldiers sent by Gonzalez to Manila to report the news. Little did they know that they were so lucky to be the only two surviving Spanish soldiers in the city of Laoag. Three days later, they finally arrived in Manila. The two cavalrymen, who were extremely tired from the wind and dust, both men and horses, did not dare to rest for a while, but exerted their strength and galloped all the way to the governor's palace. They were soon received in person, by the Spanish Governor of the Philippines, López. Hearing the news that there was now a Tang army struggling to attack the city of Laoag, López's eyes widened. How is this possible?! Didn't those Don troops sign an armistice with our Spanish Empire? Why would they raise troops to cross south and attack us Luzon from Taiwan? It's just that when López asked the two of them about the situation in a loud voice, and knew that the news of the Tang Army's invasion was indeed true, López felt that his heart fell to the bottom of the ice lake in an instant. "These damn yellow-skinned monkeys, believing that they can keep their word is as ridiculous as believing that hens can fly high in the sky! It is the greatest joke in the world that our noble Spaniards should deal with these lowly and shameless yellow-skinned monkeys! López was furious, cursing incessantly, and his gray-blue eyes were burning with rage. Your Excellency the Governor, the Tang army is large, with a total of more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and my Laoag City is very critical, so I need to send reinforcements quickly. The sentry who reported the message said hurriedly. When López heard this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh. At present, there are only 3,000 Spanish defenders in Manila, and more than 2,000 native defenders, and the troops are quite insufficient. If you want to send troops and horses to rescue Laoag City, if there are other Tang troops who come to attack Manila, the heart city of the Philippines, this Manila City will be extremely dangerous. It's just, Naravag City, can you not save it? If he didn't quickly send troops to the rescue, it was certain that the city of Narawag would fall quickly under the heavy siege of the Tang army, and he was afraid that it would not last long. In that case, the more than 300 Spanish defenders in the city, and the hundreds of Spanish families in the city of Laoag, would really be a catastrophe. Moreover, if the city of Laoag is lost, then the Tang army will definitely continue to attack cities such as San Fernando and Lingayen, so as to take these weak cities one by one. In that case, the whole of northern Luzon would no longer belong to the Spanish Empire! No, that must not be allowed to happen! Thinking of this, López made up his mind. "Pass my order, quickly transfer 2,000 Spanish soldiers from the city of Manila, led by Colonel Fernandez, and rush to the city of Laoag, and be sure to hold the city of Laoag firmly to the governor!" López gritted his teeth and uttered the order out loud. "Yes, Mr. Governor!" Thanks to the repeated urging of the governor, the Spanish army moved very quickly. Three hours later, the whole army was ready, and under the command of Colonel Fernandez, they marched north to the city of Laoag. When Fernandez's army set out to aid in the north, the Tang army under Li Dingguo had already divided into multiple routes, and the surrendered natives were used as guides to conquer all the large and small natives in the Laoag area. Li Dingguo kept the village that was willing to surrender to the Tang army, and the lives of all the people in the village were also preserved, but he only asked them to pay a certain amount of grain to the Tang army, as a letter of surrender to the Tang army, to express his obedience to the Tang army. Unwilling to surrender to the Tang army's stockades, Li Dingguo immediately attacked these villages. If the resistance of the stockade is not strong, and women and children do not participate in the battle, they will slaughter the men and keep the women, and take half of the food and money as punishment. If these native villages resist desperately, men, women and children go into battle and try their best to resist the Tang army, then the Tang army's retaliation methods are also very ruthless. Basically, all the people in the village were killed, all the food and money were taken away, and finally the village was burned down, and there was nothing left from there. In the next five or six days, the Tang army slaughtered three large villages that desperately resisted, killed all the indigenous men in the five villages that resisted lightly, and the rest of the indigenous tribes in the Rawag area surrendered. The entire Laoag region is finally calm. In such a battle to conquer the local native tribes, those native soldiers who surrendered in the city of Laoag showed great loyalty and hard work, and attacked their own compatriots more ruthlessly and ruthlessly, which impressed the Tang army. On the seventh day after the capture of the city of Laoag, Li Dingguo received an urgent report from the Flying Harrier Sentinel, knowing that there were 2,000 Spanish reinforcements and were hurrying to the city of Laoag. Li Dingguo, who heard the news, couldn't help but show a contemptuous and smug smile on his face. It came at the right time! You must know that after capturing the city of Laoag, the reason why the Tang army did not immediately attack cities such as San Fernando and Lingayan was because he learned from the mouth of the native army that the Spaniards had gone to Manila to bring rescue troops, so how to eliminate these Spanish reinforcements who rushed from Manila City has become a matter that Li Dingguo should focus on now. The most important thing is to destroy the enemy's living force. After all, only by completely destroying this Spanish army that came to the aid could the Tang army confidently and boldly attack other cities in northern Luzon, and finally firmly control the entire northern Luzon in its own hands. Moreover, if this batch of Spanish reinforcements can be eliminated in the Laoag area, then it will undoubtedly allow Tang Guogong Li Xiao to greatly reduce the resistance in the future battle to attack Manila City, so that Manila City can be captured faster. In the end, Li Dingguo's resolute and keen gaze was fixed on the Batak Valley, about ten miles away from the city of Laoag. This valley, with its treacherous terrain and narrow ravines, is the only way to the southern gate of Laoag, so it is a good choice to destroy this incoming Spanish army. Li Dingguo made up his mind and immediately began to lay out the battle plan. In order to rush to the city of Laoag as soon as possible, Colonel Fernandez, who was in an anxious mood, did not send more guards and sentries along the way, but arrogantly, the whole army formed a column and hurried north. Colonel Fernandez, who had two beautiful tendrils, certainly did not know that the 2,000 Spanish reinforcements under his command who were rushing all the way would have a terrible death trap in front of them, quietly waiting for his arrival.
