Soon everything was ready, but Zhang Zhijie still felt dissatisfied, and finally Zhang Zhijie made another decision to remove the artillery and transport it to the city wall! It's the so-called cannons on the shelf to bombard the fuck!

Just when Zhang Zhijie was preparing a rich gift for the Spaniards, the Spaniards had completely crushed the Luzon army in the dense forest in the west, and even the kings and princes of Luzon were captured alive.

The Spaniards immediately executed the king of Luzon, because they themselves were coming to rule the island, so there was no need for another king! And the king had a deep prestige in Luzon, which was not conducive to their rule, so after catching the king of Luzon, he was immediately executed!

But the Spaniards were to bring the head of King Luzon back to Manila, and they were to hang his head above the gates of the city to intimidate the natives from regenerating their dissenting intentions.

Having finally wiped out the remnants of these forces, it was time to go back and enjoy the fruits of victory, and the Spaniards began their journey back in high spirits.

But on the way, they met the accomplices they had left behind to garrison Manila, and they finally knew that something big had happened in Manila! There was a fleet of ships that sailed into Manila, and there were dozens of warships!

They immediately denied that it was the Portuguese, because it was impossible for the Portuguese to send so many warships to the East now! Then there is only one possibility, it must be the warship of the Orientals!

When they left a hundred people to garrison, they did not consider that there would be a situation where warships from the East would come to Manila, and it was because of this situation that they left more than a hundred people to garrison! Because they feel that more than a hundred people are enough!

It can form the combat power of a warship, and in the face of such a backward warship in the East, one warship is enough to compete with dozens of backward warships in the East.

It stands to reason that even if dozens of Oriental warships appear on the sea, the remaining hundred people will be enough to fight with one warship! After listening to the accounts of those who came back, they realized that there were also artillery on those ships!

All the Spaniards' faces became solemn, they must hurry back to Manila, if they left in the warship, they would not want to cry!

After all, they had a small number of ammunition supplies with them, and most of them were still on ships in Manila. The most important thing is that if their ship is lost, they will be trapped on this island!

So they must hurry back to Manila and get their ships back before the fleet leaves! The Spaniards, who were originally elated, suddenly changed, and became very dignified and anxious!

Originally, they were escorting the queens, princes, princesses, ministers and the like of Luzon, but now the situation has suddenly become so dangerous that taking these people on the road will only slow down the march! It's impossible to let them go, so there's only one option, and that's to kill them all!

Anyway, they were all ignorant and backward natives, they did not have any psychological burden, and soon executed all of them, and they did not bury them, so they were brutally corpsed in the wilderness, and then these Spaniards immediately began to march back to Manila.

Although the city of Manila has not yet returned to its former bustle and hustle and bustle, it has been revitalized! Although everyone still couldn't hide their fear in their hearts, they were also relieved to see that the Ming soldiers were very calm.

The waiting time is always a little boring, Zhang Zhijie dismantled dozens of artillery pieces and installed them on the city wall, just waiting for the Spaniards to attack the city!

Even the warships docked at the dock let Zhang Zhijie transfer, for fear that the Spaniards would attack the dock and snatch the warships. Now that the docks had been emptied and the ships had been moved, the Spanish came back to see that the docks were empty, and there was no choice but to storm the city of Manila.

Everything is ready for the Spaniards to come. The soldiers were on guard day and night, Zhang Zhijie went to the city wall from time to time to inspect it, and the rest of the time he nested in the palace, and now Zhang Zhijie has regarded the palace as his temporary residence, and no one will feel inappropriate at all.

While the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were on guard day and night, the Spaniards approached the city of Manila after a rapid march, and they stopped when they were still dozens of miles away from the city.

They had to rest, and after days of rapid marching they were already very tired, and this state of being in combat would affect their combat strength. And they're going to have to figure out what's going on at the port.

The Spaniards were already approaching Manila City and were resting thirty miles away from the city, and the news soon reached Zhang Zhijie, who did not send scouts, but the news of the Spaniards still came, and this was the people's heart.

Zhang Zhijie finally cheered up, even the soldiers also beat their spirits, they did not feel afraid of war, they occupied the position with superior forces to meet the Spaniards, although they knew that the Westerners were very strong, but they would never lose!

They have not fought a battle at all since they went to sea, and only fought two battles when they were in Hakata Bay, one was to attack Tachibana Mountain Castle, and the other was to meet the army of Bungo Kingdom, and these two battles were too easy to win, and the easy feeling was a little boring!

But now it's a bit interesting to be at war with the Spaniards. So for the upcoming battle, the soldiers are a little eager and excited.

But it was not for the Spaniards, for they had already determined that the harbor was empty, and not only were there no Oriental ships, but even their Spanish ships were gone!

These Spaniards couldn't help but burst into a rage, which completely cut off their retreat, and they couldn't help but lose their warship, and they could probably be trapped on this island! Moreover, half of their ammunition supply was on board.

Some of them were stored in Manila, and the rest were taken by them to pursue the Luzon army! Now they don't have much ammunition in their hands, and if they don't have warships, what if they have ammunition supplies in the city?

There will always be a day when they run out of ammunition, and without the advantage of arquebuses, they will not be able to gain a foothold on this island at all! How they slaughtered the natives, those natives will slaughter them in turn!

So they had to have warships, because with warships they could go back to the ocean to replenish their ammunition. But now that the ships are gone, they must take the city of Manila!
