120 The time of vengeance
The arrival of the Hongmen fleet, at the same time, made Gan Xingzhi and other crazy sharks excited, especially when the Hongmen fleet appeared in front of everyone, it shocked everyone.
Including Gan Xingzhi, Li Tian's elder, in fact, what he knows about Hongmen is more from various rumors among the people, especially Li Tianyang, in order to prevent his father from taking advantage of him, deliberately concealed the secret that Hongmen can build Western-style foreign ships.
This huge fleet appeared in front of everyone, more convincing and influential than any word, and the negative emotions that had previously permeated the Shark gang to frustration and loss were all swept away at this moment, and everyone was once again full of confidence and enthusiasm, and they were also very energetic to do their work and work.
On the third day of October in the fifth year of Chongzhen, the weather was very good, and Li Tianyang, Gan Xingzhi and others, who had stayed on the island for a month, finally raised their sails again and killed them back the way they came.
However, this time, Li Tianyang's team swelled a lot, except for the two or three thousand relatives of the Shark Gang who were still left on the isolated island, the rest of the Shark Gang and more than 4,000 Hongmen soldiers, a total of more than 50 sea ships, rushed towards the main island of Luzon in the southwest.
Li Tianyang's target this time was not on the main target he should have faced, his younger brother Li Tiansheng, but turned his gun and directly aimed at the more powerful Spaniards.
The arrival of Lu Xiao also brought with him the entrustment of the proprietors and heads of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce to help solve the current chaotic situation in the Luzon Islands.
The Nanyang Chamber of Commerce's business names and sea gangs have complex origins, but they are more successful in trade, and the energy in terms of armed strength is indeed too small.
At the beginning, they were bewitched by Li Tianyang, and everyone came to the Luzon Islands to develop and spend, spending countless money and resources on the island, but in the end they ended up in such a situation, and no one would give up.
What's more, in the development of the Luzon Islands these days, everyone has more or less tasted the sweetness, as businessmen, they naturally hope to be able to maintain such a money-making situation, get more profits, if someone blocks their way to wealth, they will naturally get rid of it.
Of course, this is also indispensable to the tragic purge action of the Spaniards, and the slaughter policy of overseas Chinese in the Ming Dynasty made Li Tianyang, a pseudo-angry young man, also have a common hatred for the enemy.
Therefore, Li Tianyang had to change the primary goal this time, first to solve the evil deeds of the Spaniards in the Luzon Islands, and to solve the problem of the Ming overseas Chinese groups on the island who were still stubbornly resisting.
The presence of such a large team in the waters of Luzon was impossible for a colonist who had been operating in the Luzon Islands for almost half a century without being discovered by them.
The Spaniards are also ready to turn against Hongmen, their own fleet in the Far East, since more than a month ago, has been slowly gathered together, and at the same time, their merchant team of sea ships, has also been requisitioned by them, and now in the harbor outside Manila, the Spanish fleet is no longer the previous twelve sea ships, but nearly twenty sea ships.
At the same time, on the side of Xiangshanao in the Far East, their fellow brothers, the Portuguese, also have a fleet of six warships, which is slowly moving south, and it is estimated that in half a month, they will be able to reach the Manila Castle to support it.
However, the Spaniards underestimated Li Tianyang's determination and determination, and did not expect that Hongmen's development speed was so rapid, and the strength of its fleet could be said to have surpassed their strength in the Far East.
When more than 50 Hongmen and Shark Point combined fleets arrived at the outskirts of Manila, the Spaniards themselves were full of confidence, and finally when they saw the more than 20 Western-style warships in the Hongmen Combined Fleet, everyone's faces froze, and gradually became serious and nervous.
He had long been accustomed to using strong ships and cannons to slaughter the Orientals' sea ships, and the strong sense of superiority brought by years of dealing with the Orientals and conquests was destroyed by the strength of the Hongmen fleet at this moment.
Li Tianyang never felt that he was a benevolent person, since the Spaniards had already shown their hideous faces and ugly faces, and his own side had already made up his mind to attack the Spaniards, then he would not give the Spaniards too much time to prepare.
The Spaniards had already anticipated the actions of Hongmen and were prepared for the movement of the Hongmen fleet, but when the Hongmen fleet really came to them, because of the difference in strength estimates, and because of the fact that they had weakened their own firepower in Manila City and the fleet in order to defeat the stubborn Ming overseas Chinese gang on the island, they had not made up for it until now.
Therefore, when the Hongmen fleet came to the front, it was clear that the Spaniards as a whole were a little panicked.
"Attack the opponent's sea and fleet first, I want to see the picture of the opponent's fleet being completely destroyed by us!"
Li Tianyang is unforgiving, others say that ten years to sharpen a sword, and he Li Tianyang in order to sharpen this sword, it took more than ten years, his entire youth was spent on this, and now he is already in the age of standing, it is time for these Westerners who have been proud of the Far East for too long, to feel the strong strength of the Orientals!
"Understood!!"
The deputy of the fleet, Lu Yan, was even more excited, and his eyes staring at the shadow of the ship on the sea in the distance were full of rolling murderous intent, as if he saw a fat roast chicken in front of him, waiting for him to tear them apart!
Lu Lu was very glad that he had made the right choice in exchange for today's wish, and the final realization of his long-awaited expectations for many years was just around the corner, so he couldn't help but tighten the long knife on his body that he hadn't pulled out for many years, and imagined that he would kill in all directions in the castle on the island with this next.
"Father, mother, sister, brother, do you see? The child is going to avenge you today, I hope you have a spirit in heaven, bless the child to kill him today without leaving a piece of armor! ”
Lu Yu's eyes wandered, and he thought silently in his heart, and then his eyes widened, and he shouted loudly: "The Hongmen fleet belongs, assault!" ”
One by one, the battleships of the Hongmen Fleet, which had long been ready to go, broke away from the fleet and pressed towards the Spanish fleet and the port in the distance!
