Huang Degong transported troops like flowing water, the only remaining Fort Philip in Manila, he was not in a hurry to fight, just so sleepy, he instead divided his troops and seemed to seize the city, how did the Spaniards do it back then, the Ming Dynasty followed it again, the native tribes near Manila were all taken away, and the Spanish conquerors fled into the rainforest in embarrassment.

However, at this time, Luzon was no longer the Luzon when Zheng He went to the West in the early Ming Dynasty, and it is no wonder that Ondolma had confidence, and the strategy of the Western colonists with a musket and a Bible in one hand worked, and the native tribes near Manila converted to Catholicism.

Of course, this is just some trouble, the Spaniards have artillery, the Ming army is not nothing, a column of musketeers, a cannon bombardment, basically a round of collapse, more than a dozen or twenty people died, thousands of black and oppressive native army fled all over the mountains, and then the native chieftain cried bitterly to the Ming army camp kowtowed and apologized.

Huang Degong attacked Luzon for about half a month, and Yuan Dabao returned from Taiwan with a fleet, and this time he brought more than 3,000 Ming immigrants.

Not to mention, the retro restructuring of the Donglin Party, the remaining population that the manor economy can not digest, not to mention the turmoil brought to Jiangnan, but also brought population welfare to Mao Jue, during the spring of March and April, there are more than 200,000 Jiangnan people who fled to Songjiang, Hangzhou, Quanzhou, and Fuzhou, especially in Fujian, where the sea is traditional, not only landless farmers, but also many maritime merchant families simply moved over.

Moreover, in the past, the imperial court policy was not supported, and many people went to Nanyang for their livelihood, not to mention that the imperial court policy began to go all out, just in the past half a month, the captured Taipei has surged from the original 4,000 households and more than 14,000 people to 40,000, and learned that Manila has been given a house for nothing, and a large number of Fujian people who are not satisfied with the status quo and are full of adventurous spirit have not been hot in Taiwan, and once again overcame all obstacles, sailed out to sea, and arrived in Manila.

After sixty or seventy years of Spanish colonization, two or three generations have been reproduced, and there are only more than 5,000 Spanish expatriates in Manila.

As for the number of natives, the number also rose again, and as soon as several nearby tribes were conquered, some natives came to the city to earn a living.

The pattern of the community has also changed, in the past, the luxurious manor of the Spaniards, the lowest Ming people in the past was one person and one building, the furniture was originally complete, but the customs of the Ming Dynasty, the furniture of the dead people was uncomfortable, all thrown out, hit the latest, the first dozen carpenters who moved over made a windfall, and the natives who lived next to them were happy to squat at the door every day to pick up.

Under the command of the Ming army, under the command of the Ming army, there were many small and dark-skinned natives under the city of Fort Philip, cutting trees from outside the city, and pasting clay on the outside of the stakes, facing Fort Philip, and a defensive wall more than two meters high was erected.

"These ungrateful heresies who turn their backs on God!"

Looking at the energetic natives, Archbishop Ondol trembled angrily, drew a circle on the wall with his staff like a spell, and cursed viciously: "They all deserve to go to hell and be punished by Satan's fire!"

The little face seemed to be a little thinner, and a little hungry, and Serita was lying on the battlements in confusion.

She is a lady who has received the education of orthodox Spanish aristocracy, in the indoctrination of the older generation, the Oriental people are barbaric, ignorant, timid and cowardly, dozens of Spaniards are enough to conquer a country, but now, wearing black cotton armor, holding a fine flintlock pistol with a spear, these Ming soldiers are no different from the Spanish Army, to say the difference, can only say that they are more well-equipped, more fierce.

It's scary!

A burst of hungry grunts began to pierce out, making the cheeks of the beautiful nobles even more distressed.

…………

The news of this era was so late that it had been four days since the fall of Manila, the escape of the Spaniards had reached the nearby stronghold of Marianas, and the traveling merchant ships had experienced another storm as they passed the edge of Borneo, and more than thirteen days had passed by the time they arrived in Malacca.

At this time, the sky over Malacca was also a war cloud.

The battleships lying across the water lined outward, and the heavy cannons sprayed from bass to treble like playing a piano, and beside the moving West Dutch battleships, columns of water splashed one after another, and the rippling waves shook the battleship like toys in a bathtub.

Indeed, in terms of naval combat experience, fleet numbers, and gunners, the Spanish and Dutch coalition forces have an advantage, but this advantage is not absolute, even if they lose one, Zheng Sen has more than forty sail battleships under him, and he still occupies a defensive position.

Just like a sea fortress, the Ming pirate warships blocked the Strait of Malacca, neatly lined up, thousands of cannons fiercely returned fire, no need for any roundabouts, no matter what formation you want, as long as you want to attack me, you have to brave the rain of artillery to attack, especially when the Spanish battleship enters the firing range to fight horizontally, it is enough for the artillery to sweep two rounds.

In this round of cannon rain, with a bang, the bow of the Dutch flagship Seven Provinces took a solid shot, although the metal decorative bow hit the horns to protect the hull, but the face of the bow angel was still flattened, and the Spanish ship of the Trinity on the other end was not so lucky, the foredeck was smashed several holes, and the foreside was also opened.

The remaining coalition fleets in the front row had more or less these losses, and the big men of the Dutch and Spaniards hoped to destroy the Ming pirates in one fell swoop, but for the pirates who did not have much oil and water, the captains and sailors below did not have much appetite, and after assessing the possible losses, these ships circled around the edge of the shooting range and retreated.

On the way, the battle was also going on, and to the sound of neat drums, the natives recruited in Manila marched to the front with large bows and spears, while the Spanish infantry in plate armor walked behind with square strides with arquebuses.

The cannonballs also fell one after another in the crowd, and after a bombardment, several natives fell to the ground like a bowling ball, and the same bright red blood was hideously infected on the beach, but it was different here and Manila, and those who dared to run away were shot on the spot, so with amazing casualties, the natives still rushed to the beach as cannon fodder and human walls.

But as soon as it came to hand-to-hand combat, these natives urinated, and behind the close barriers, the Ming pirates were like mountain spirits and monsters, rushing into the crowd with scimitars, crackling as if chopping a black beauty watermelon, and the pirates shook their dirty and disgusting braids, and laughed wildly with a big mouth that was missing half a mouth, and two short firearms were close to the face and shot two shots to knock down the two.

All of a sudden, the natives fled backwards like black glass balls, but their purpose was achieved.

Holding spears high, the Spanish phalanx like hedgehogs was immediately revealed behind these retreating natives, and I have to admit that this thing is so powerful that the pirates with double knives in front of them with spears can't reach them at all, and just when they are dazed, the crackling guns behind them follow.

Behind a pile of meat pillars, the lagging arquebuses could also be fired to their heart's content, and in the obscene laughter of those Spanish mercenaries, the sluggish Zheng family pirate ship burst out of its chest with a bloody hole, and fell to the ground one after another screaming.

Although the combat effectiveness of the pirates is much stronger than that of the natives, but the morale is not necessarily strong, the three big hedgehog bulldozers squeezed inside, and the pirates in front of them were either shot down by arquebuses or pricked by spears, and the rest simply turned around and fled, hula, thousands of people on the front line in front of the ruins of the Lion City were torn out by more than 600 Spanish conquistadors.

I really didn't expect that these guys' combat effectiveness was so strong, and beads of sweat flowed down the head of Zheng Sen, who was commanding the resistance in the back, hiding behind a sandbag, and his hand holding the pistol couldn't help shaking.

However, in the face of these hedgehogs, he is not completely without a way to deal with them, just behind the big stones in the direction of these Spanish conquistadors, there are about 500 Zheng family pirate ships, all of them are Dongjiang standard rifles in their hands, the spearmen in the front row of the Spaniards are guarding against swords, guns, swords, halberds, and can't defend against bullets.

However, whether Dongjiang's musket could penetrate the armor of the Spaniards and whether it had the effect of destroying decay, he did not know whether it had a bottom.

Once defeated, this tidal flat will eat raw crabs for more than ten days, and it will be in vain to dig insects in the tropical rainforest.

After all, he has not experienced the tempering of more than ten years of cruel war in history, Zheng Sen at this time can be regarded as a fledgling but with a heart higher than the sky, and he is not as hard-hearted as Zheng Chenggong who attacked Taiwan, and can fight to the death! Listening to the Spaniard's footsteps creaking forward, his heart was already shaken before he could fight, and he couldn't help but look back at the pirate warship that was still anchored in Malacca.

The root of pirates is still the ship, even if the person dies, the ship is still there, and then it will be recruited, but if he runs away now, he will not be ruined by the name of the South Seas, I am afraid that the Zheng family will no longer be the backing he can rely on in the future, and he will have to provoke the hatred and isolation of other pirates, and it will be more difficult to create a career!

However, stay in the green mountains, and you are not afraid of no firewood!

Finally, the cowardice in his heart seemed to prevail, listening to the hurried footsteps of the Spaniards phalanx getting closer and closer, carrying a pistol, Zheng Sen's dull retreat from the side of the sandbag, and turned to touch the shore.

But at this moment, a thunderous roar suddenly sounded behind him, which frightened Zheng Sen and couldn't help but feel a spirit.

"Young Master! The Spaniards retreated! Those barbarians retreated! Young Master......"

Looking at his back in astonishment, Gan Hui's excited shout was swallowed back into his mouth again, and he saw through it, Zheng Sen's heart couldn't help but beat violently, and after a while, he raised the telescope as if nothing had happened, and looked at the enemy.

"The Western Barbarians have withdrawn? Hmph, count them in luck!"

When Gan Hui's voice sounded, Zheng Sen had already turned around, looking at him with a telescope, the other pirates didn't feel weird, and looked back at the battlefield again, only Gan Hui's face appeared a grotesque, and he stopped talking a few times, and finally swallowed the words back into his stomach.

Facing the dilapidated royal city of Manraka, I don't know why, the Spanish phalanx, which was advancing like a bamboo, really slowly retreated back under the cover of the spearmen!
