Fernando stayed up all night, but in the end he couldn't wait for news from Team Frando. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Last night, there was a dense burst of gunfire outside the city, and there has been no movement since.
Fernando wondered in his heart, it was a team of fifty people, why was it gone in a blink of an eye? At first, he didn't believe that Flendo's team would be wiped out, but as dawn approached, there was still no news from outside the city, and he completely died.
The Spanish soldiers in the city also stayed up all night, and they all waited for news from Flendo's team, and as time went on, they began to panic.
However, they were uneasy, but they still did not admit defeat.
"Impossible! How could we, the Spanish soldiers, be so unbeaten! ”
"Yes, we are a well-trained regular army, and even if we can't defeat these uncivilized Asian natives, we can at least fight with them."
After dawn, it became clear to the Spaniards throughout the city of San Salvador that Frando's squad would never return.
Colonel Fernand knew the gravity of the problem best, because he had the most information, and this group of people could even take the city of Geranza, which must be extremely fierce.
"Could it be that I, Fernando, am going to die here?"
Yesterday, he had already sent someone to Manila to bring rescue troops, but Fernando did not have much hope for reinforcements.
A few days ago, Manila sent a powerful fleet to exterminate the pirates, but they were all wiped out, and it is said that the entire fleet did not even have a sampan left in the end.
In this case, where is the spare power in Manila to rescue Taiwan Island?
It seems that he Fernando is alone.
"Immediately send my order, everyone must not slack off, and strictly prevent the enemy from attacking the city!"
Fernando is ruthless and ready to fight the enemy to the death.
He wanted to see what the enemy could do to break through his fortified castle!
While the people in San Salvador were panicking, Andre had already driven up a hill outside San Salvador in a tank.
Liu Laoliu pointed to the city of San Salvador at the foot of the mountain and said to Andre: "The Spaniards probably didn't think that we could easily occupy this commanding height!" ”
Everyone stood on the hill, looking down at the castle of the Spaniards, and the city of San Salvador at this time was shrouded in the morning glow, and for Liu Lao Liu, this was the dawn of victory.
Although Sun Tiezhu hadn't slept all night, his fighting spirit was high, and he said excitedly: "Captain, you say, when will the city be attacked?" How to attack? ”
Since the establishment of the Heavenly Army, Sun Tiezhu has been looking forward to fighting a good battle, and this time, their marines finally have a place to use, and he hopes to charge into battle again and make new achievements.
Liu Lao Liu looked at him impatiently and said with a smile: "Have you forgotten Instructor Jack's words?" Are you trying to force a siege with your men? That's pure death! ”
He said to Andrei, "Lieutenant Colonel Andrei, it's up to you from below." ”
The city of San Salvador, although not as good as the city of Geranza, also has powerful batteries in the castle, and if you want to attack the city, you must definitely destroy these batteries in the first stage.
On this hill, it is condescending to shell the batteries inside the castle with tanks, it is really convenient.
In the city of San Salvador, the Spaniards were having breakfast after a long night, when they suddenly heard a loud cannon shot.
"Oh no! The enemy is besieging the city! ”
"Get ready now!"
"Organize a counterattack immediately!"
The Spaniards threw down their jobs and ran to their fighting positions.
Due to the urgency, the battery was always manned, and the tank blew up a battery in the castle with the first shot, and killed two Spanish gunners with it.
Fernando was the first to get the bad news.
"What? They blew up one of our batteries with just one shot? ”
The accuracy of the enemy's artillery, not so accurate, okay?
Where did the enemy's artillery come from?
At this time, Fernando already had a faint idea of the enemy's means of attacking the city.
"Fight back now! Fire! Knock out the enemy's artillery! ”
"My lord, the enemy's artillery is on the hill south of the castle, and our battery does not have enough range to fight that far!"
Fernando was really dumbfounded.
can only be beaten passively, not counterattacked, how can this battle be fought?
Fernando suddenly remembered the city of Geranza again.
No wonder they were able to capture the impregnable city of Geranza, it turns out that they have more advanced artillery!
The Dutch governor of the city of Geranza must have been desperate in the face of this situation.
Fernando, of course, was more desperate, because he had long seen the end of this battle.
He thought that he could rely on the castle and hold out for a while, even if the enemy would eventually take the castle, but he would suffer heavy losses. Who knows, he is just wishful thinking.
"Boom!"
Inside the castle, another cannon rang out.
With the sound of cannon fire, bad news came one after another.
"Oh no, my lord! Another of our batteries was blown up, killing and wounding three people! ”
"My lord, we have four artillery batteries that have been directly hit, and all of them have been blown up!"
Hearing these fateful news, Fernando's face turned blue and he punched the table.
"These damn it! Think of me Fernando, when did I suffer from this kind of! ”
It's so embarrassing!
But what can he do?
Fernando finally sighed: "Pass my order, remove all the gunners on the battery!" ”
Since they can't shoot back, what use are these gunners? Guarding the fort will only send you to death in vain.
The Spaniards in the city were all chilled when they saw that all the gunners had withdrawn from the battery.
They could all see that the enemy's artillery was on the hill outside the castle, and they all understood that their batteries did not have the range to fire back at the enemy, but removing the gunners meant giving up resistance, which had a great impact on morale.
"Are you going to give up, Major?"
"It's over! Our San Salvador city is over! ”
The Spaniards in San Salvador were already depressed, but Liu Laoliu and others outside the city were very relaxed.
"It seems that this battle, like the previous battles, can be captured."
"Yes, it's all thanks to advanced weapons!"
"Speaking of which, since the deputy commander came, we have suddenly become stronger."
Liu Lao Liu and the others were chatting happily, but the tank shelling suddenly stopped.
Andrei jumped down from the tank and came to Liu Laoliu: "The forts in the castle have all been destroyed, how to break the city below?" ”
Liu Laoliu was stunned, yes, the fort has been knocked out, how to break the city below?
Could it be that at this time he still has to go to the commander and ask the commander to give him orders?
Of course not, the commander is obviously testing his command ability, if he can't even take this city, where will he put his face as the top three masters?
Liu Lao Liu frowned and thought for a while, and pointed to the city of San Salvatore with his hand: "Bomb their city walls!" Open a gap! ”
