Hu Zhen hopes that the Three Kingdoms Observation Fleet will wear back the news of Spain's defeat, and of course there is a more important invisible battlefield waiting for a fierce battle:

Before Hu Zhen decided to send troops to Luzon, he had already ordered Zhang Suan, who was dormant in Europe, to arrange for the wolf-like Ou Lang Enterprise Group and Frodo Enterprise Group to quietly mobilize hundreds of millions of pounds of funds to use hundreds of vest companies and private accounts to enter the Spanish financial market to make a good layout.

Now, it will take at least a day for the news of Spain's defeat in Luzon to be transmitted back by cable, and at that time, hundreds of capital accounts under the Oram and Frodo groups will be like wolves, calling for wind and rain in the stock and bond markets, frantically shorting, and shearing Spanish wool.

Before the war, according to the secret calculations of Zhang Suan, Ou Lang, and Frodo, this time, there will be at least more than 50 million pounds in profits!

And Hu Zhen is looking forward to this time, to cut 100 million pounds of wool in the Kingdom of Spain, so that the wealth it has plundered all over the world for 400 years will flow out to his own hands for the purpose of revitalizing Great China!

Poor Spain, all eyes were only on the Huaxia Army's large-scale attack in the Luzon Islands, and they didn't expect that Hu Zhen was quietly using the gold, silver and money that people loved, and was outflanking their country's economic foundation!

European countries are also focused on the war between the two sides, and no one would have thought that Hu Zhen would feast on the Spanish stock and bond market, and eat people without spitting out bones.

A massacre of money, more tragic than the Luzon Sea and Land Battlefield, is slowly unfolding in Spain.

What Hu Zhen has to do now is to command hundreds of thousands of troops to land in Luzon and seize nearly 300,000 square kilometers of land in Luzon.

Spanish Viceroy in Luzon, Valeriano. After Admiral Velier ordered Severa to lead the Luzon fleet into battle, he waited anxiously at the Doge's Palace for news from the navy.

Before the battle was over, the Spanish Army, which was observing along the coast, reported the news of the defeat of the Luzon fleet to the Governor's Palace in Manila by wire.

"Oh God! Why is that? When Willaire heard the news, his mind went blank and his body shook a few times. I almost fainted, making the people around me nervous.

Velaire, who was touching his head, thought after a while: the Huaxia Army has won a decisive victory at sea, and the next step must be a large-scale landing on Luzon!

There will inevitably be even more severe battles on land!

At this time, most of the Spanish troops were transferred to the island to suppress the uprising. The defensive positions along the coast were empty, and the sudden appearance of the Huaxia Army seized a favorable opportunity.

On the northern side of the Manila Bay Channel, a convoy of more than 300 dinghys and sampans dropped and rushed to the shore with more than 4,000 marines and special operations on board.

The coastal positions of Luzon stretched for thousands of kilometers, and the Spanish army simply could not divide their forces to defend them. Only 100 Spanish troops chose the place where the Huaxia Army landed, and most of them were killed and wounded by the cruiser's large-caliber artillery, and most of them were killed and wounded.

When the landing boats and sampans of the Chinese army appeared on the shore and beach, the remaining soldiers of the Western Army, under the compulsion of the officers, used infantry weapons and two small-caliber guns to open heavy fire against the Huaxia army that was about to seize the beach.

"Kill them!"

The four destroyers, risking running aground, fired a salvo of their guns at a distance of 300 meters, covering the landing soldiers to force a beachfront landing.

The heavy artillery fire of the destroyers crushed the enemy's resistance at once, and the fighters rushed to the beachhead with small sampans. Only twenty or thirty living enemies remained.

The soldiers who rushed to the front used their light machine guns, recoilless guns, and mortars to strafe the enemy so violently that they could not raise their heads.

After the white officer was killed, the remnants of the soldiers lost their backbone and either quickly turned around and fled, or threw down their weapons and raised their hands in surrender.

Without the interference of the enemy's fleet, the Huaxia Army successfully took control of the beachhead at a slight cost.

When more than 3,000 reinforcements of the Spanish army arrived at the beachhead, more than 4,000 people in the first echelon of the Huaxia Army had all successfully landed, and the more than 3,000 Spanish troops were greeted by fierce bullets and artillery fire.

The warships of the Huaxia Army on the sea also supported the operations on land with fierce firepower.

The more than 3,000 Spanish troops were scattered in less than half an hour.

The Huaxia army chased more than ten kilometers in one go. The landing field was completely stabilized.

The news of the landing of the Huaxia Army on the north side of the Manila Bay Channel was transmitted to the Manila Governor's Palace by cable, and Willaire, who had been waiting anxiously, jumped up: "Order the reserves to set off at once and drive these hateful barbarians out to sea to feed the fish!" ”

Willier knew that the Huaxia army was definitely going to land. He had already arranged for an army reserve to wait, and as soon as the Huaxia army appeared on land, he would rush over fiercely and press the landing Huaxia army into the sea.

Velaire said to his old subordinate, Lieutenant General Manuel, commander of the First Luzon Army: "Although our navy has been defeated, our strong army is still there, and we can still hold the Luzon Islands." As long as the situation changes, we can win the support of the major European powers, and force the Chinese army not to covet Luzon, and we will be able to hold Luzon forever! ”

Lieutenant General Manuel, as a lieutenant general of the army, of course, wanted to defeat the Chinese army with his own army, and with the same illusion as Willer, he drove the 140,000-strong army of the Luzon First Army towards the north side of Manila Bay.

At this time, the Huaxia Army had successfully landed on the north side of the Manila Bay Channel, captured Pitas, and was advancing towards Mariwelles in a big way, when the vanguard of the Luzon First Army suddenly appeared and collided head-on with the vanguard of the Huaxia Army.

Manuel immediately ordered the Luzon First Army to use the linear dense formation of the Napoleonic era and with great courage to charge the Huaxia positions.

The Huaxia army seemed to be intimidated by the brave charge of the Spanish army, and retreated step by step towards the sea in a chaotic formation.

"Nima's, these whites commanding a few natives and letting us retreat step by step?"

"Commander Ouyang, why do you want to retreat?"

"With our weapons and combat effectiveness, how can a few Spaniards and natives stand in the way of our army?"

Several young officers who ran back from the front rushed into the landing headquarters and asked Major General Ouyang Yu, commander of the first echelon of the landing, what was going on.

Ouyang Yu didn't have a trace of joy and sorrow on his face, he just said: "This is an action plan approved by the commander-in-chief, and you must implement it unconditionally!" ”

"What? This is the arrangement of the commander-in-chief? (To be continued.) )
