Chapter 673. Why don't men make headlines?

More than 400 years ago, there were people who made the same troubles as Mr. Wang Feng, why can't I make the headlines?

"Isn't it just a newspaper? Is it that important? ”

I came in with a pot of coffee from outside, and seeing that Huang Degong was still there flipping through the newspapers, the heroic and graceful female staff officer was really a little crying and laughing, and asked with a smile.

Although Huang Degong has a lot of minor problems, he is a straightforward husband, listening to Gu Moyi's question, after putting the newspaper on the table, he nodded unabashedly and hummed: "Of course!" The man splits the thorns and drains the blood, fights thousands of miles away, isn't the fight just a famous and famous for eternity? ”

"As long as it's in the headlines! The people of the world will know the name of my Huang Degong, and my mother's spirit in the sky can also smile, so my husband, I should mention the three-foot sword to make immortal achievements, the above headlines!"

It was really not restrained, the female staff officer finally couldn't help but grin, and immediately without waiting for Huang Degong to get angry, she quickly opened the official document sent by the imperial military department, and said hurriedly.

"Mr. Jun wants to make headlines, and this time he should get his wish! Because the Battle of Luzon will be very important for the regent! Lord Hong promised that these days, the Imperial Capital Daily will continue to publish the exploits of the eunuch Zheng He of the Three Treasures and the tragic situation of the Manila Massacre on the second and third pages to set off the mood of public opinion.

The pupils brightened a little, Gu Moyi's breathing was slightly short, and he said excitedly.

"And although the words of the Hong Bingbu are unknown, the tone that can be revealed, the Zhengcheng County incident that now occupies the front page headlines is definitely related to the enlightened emperor today! Once the incident in Zhengcheng County is investigated, the military seat has made a great contribution here, and it is a long face for the regent, what does it mean for the regent, the military seat is clear! ”

What does that mean? It means to be the emperor! Grabbed the handle of the former emperor and restored the country! Domination! Adding a piece will raise Mao Jue's prestige to the peak, and when the time comes, add nine tin, Zen Rang, that is a logical matter of a dragon down, when the time comes, he Huang Degong, the person who has been the stepping stone, will Mao Jue treat him badly?

However, he was not as excited as Gu Moyi imagined, Huang Degong's expression was heavy, after all, he used to be the minister of the Ming Dynasty, and now he wants to be the gravedigger of the Ming Dynasty, in this era of loyalty and patriotism as a moral model, his heart is still quite complicated.

Taking a heavy puff of the cigar, Huang Degong put the cigarette on the ashtray slightly irritably, thinking that it could make him laugh, looking at this expression, Gu Moyi was a little confused and asked again.

"Throne?"

With a wave of his slap and the smoke turned on, Huang Degong suddenly diverted the topic.

"Spain is almost there, isn't it?"

Militarily it is Gu Moyi's job, she hurriedly stood upright, and replied competently and concisely: "General Hui Army, the Western Barbarian North Route is led by the barbarian chief Alex, and it has already moved south from San Fernando, and the southern barbarian chief Hernan has also landed in Lucena from Mindanao, and in about three days, he will attack my Manila City on both sides, and the other sailors are nowhere to be traced all the way, and his subordinates think that they will also arrive at Manila Bay within three days." ”

"The waterway has nothing to do with Lao Tzu, there is Yuan Cripple to go to the top, as for the Lu Division, 30,000 people go together, this seat may still have a headache or two, and it actually made a north-south attack, it's just beyond my strength!"

"What the military commander said is extremely true!"

A rich sneer appeared on his face, and Gu Moyi nodded with a wicked smile like a villain bad woman and took over the conversation: "Recently, those Western barbarian nobles have been living very comfortably, and it's time for them to make some contributions to the great cause of the regent!" ”

"Just go with one of your subordinates?"

In traditional Chinese culture, men belong to yang, women belong to yin, what he said is really right, although Huang Degong has some strategy, not a reckless man, but he is better at crisscrossing the battlefield, defeating the enemy army with the power of Mount Tai.

After getting Huang Degong's approval, the flower of the army went out with a small tune, but after sending her away, Huang Degong's face collapsed from the anger just now, and he looked back at the newspaper on the table a few times, he pinched it again, and picked up the smoldering cigar on the ashtray again.

The wide newspaper covered his entire face, and only the smoke rings kept coming out of the paper.

…………

Although the Spaniards were greedy and vicious, they were indeed remarkable, and with a small mountain country the size of the European continent, and it took a lot of effort to defeat a small country that had just repelled a trace of blue and gained independence, with a population of two or three million, it was able to rule nearly half the world for nearly a century or more.

The Spanish army that fought back also reflected this dominance, the huge Luzon, the Spanish population was only 15,000 or 6,000, but it ruled the Tagalog, Visayas, Bicol and other races of the entire 300,000 or 400,000 people, more than 30,000 troops, Luzon natives composed of more than 20,000 troops, hired European adventurers and Spaniards together, but also to join some Japanese warriors and Ming lawless pirates, barely enough to gather 10,000 people.

Comparable to the Spaniards, it is estimated that there are only the people of the Eight Banners Jianzhou who did not have Mao Jue's time and space, with a population of only one million, ruling the Ming Dynasty with nearly 150 million people.

However, since it is the relationship between ruling and being ruled, then there are gaps to insert in this!

Under the tropical blazing sun, the army of dark and shiny natives was like a huge earthworm, divided into three ways, rolling forward, on their right shoulder, the spear from European craftsmanship was shining with cold light, and on the left hand was a long hexagonal rattan shield woven from the unique tree vine of Luzon, and the three thousand people who took the lead were even wrapped in European plate armor, and most of the natives behind were also surrounded by rattan armor in important positions, Carrying a large bow made of vine trees and a pot full of steel feather arrows on his back, the morale of the natives doubled as the equipment was upgraded, and they arched forward like wild boars with a shy stomach.

In the middle of the natives, they are wearing Spanish linen armor, covered with plate armor, the famous Spanish phalanx, three or four meters high Spanish spears are far more deterrent than the natives short spears, in the sun, even people with spears are like moving steel forests, followed by spearmen, there are arquebusiers with Spanish swords one after another.

With such troops, the Spaniards destroyed the Inca Empire, destroyed the Aztecs, and exterminated the Maya.

In the arrogant army, it also carried a full 120 large and small cannons, which is a feat in Europe, you must know that Mao Jue's cheap father-in-law Wallenstein fought with the Swedish genius King Gustav, who decided the fate of the empire, and the cannons of the two sides together did not exceed a hundred.

This army is the most powerful force ever built on the Philippine Islands.

From the point of view of strength alone, the Ming army is absolutely weak, a whole army has experienced the battle of Manila and more than half a year of disease attrition, there are about 7,500 people, plus the subsequent immigration to Manila Ming people and forced conscription of natives, it is only 10,000 people, which is one-third of the Spaniards.

Commanding the main army recruited from all over North Luzon, with 7,000 European troops and 15,000 native troops, Alex, an old officer who was promoted to major general in the line of fire, was also full of confidence, riding on the back of Androusia's horse that was transported thousands of miles away, and the old guy's goatee was up.

But just as a large group of thugs marched south to re-wash Manila, the native troops in front of them suddenly stopped in a commotion.

"Something's wrong! Who told you to stop? ”

In the local tribes of Luzon, the status of the chief is like a god, but in front of Alex, he is just a slave who wears a little gorgeous, and he rode from the Chinese army to the front army with a belly of anger, and in front of a few native chiefs who were a little stunned, the old colonial officer directly waved the whip angrily, and in the sound of crackling, several natives were exposed to the skin and flesh outside the rattan armor and immediately showed a bloody path.

The painful bared teeth grinned, jumping up and down like a baboon, but intimidated by the usual obscenity of the Spaniards, several of the chiefs did not dare to resist at all, but could only cover their heads and beg for mercy.

However, the big fish eat the small fish, and the small fish eat the shrimp, and in this food chain, Alex is not the biggest, and in his angry roar, an old god in a gorgeous red silk priest's robe, with a white beard, like a white-robed Gandalf, walked out of the front army coughing.

"Father, I told the big guy to stop, Major General Alex!"

The Spanish Empire is an absolutely Catholic country, and the Inquisition has a crooked mouth, even if it is a big noble, he has to make a fuss, not to mention that he is a low-ranking officer who was born as a commoner and relied on how many years of birth and death to survive to his current status.

It's just like the face change in Sichuan drama, Alex's old dog face that wants to bite is also quickly turned into a golden hairy face, and he almost stuck out his tongue when he nodded and bowed, crying and mourning, Alex asked sadly.

"Father! If you don't hurry up and march, the Akito will have to flee by boat from Manila! Where is the majesty of the empire if these heretics are not punished by God and burned at the stake if they are not punished by God? ”

With an expressionless face, the priest of Northern Luzon pulled his face and said arrogantly: "They have Archbishop Ondolema, Governor Darazan and Miss Viscount Serita, and the Ming envoy said that if you don't negotiate, you will execute a few noble nobles, do you want to kill a few nobles?" ”

I can't afford to bear this charge, Alex immediately shook his head like a rattle.

In ancient times, there was a controversy between Cao Di, one drum, then decline, and three exhaustions! Now that the Spaniards had been poked back so easily at the first blow, the menacing coalition forces had to stop and camp on the spot at a distance of ninety kilometers from Manila in two days.

The natives had not undergone much military training, and the weakness of the Austronesian people's loose character was immediately revealed, and the neatly organized team dispersed in a hurry, and some people threw spears and shields, and ran to the woods to pick fruits, and it was estimated that it would take several days to regroup.

Under the fiery gaze of a group of Spanish officers, holding a small Catholic flag high, moving his long toned legs in military boots, and taking a few guards, Gu Moyi stopped in front of the Spanish army with a big grin.
