Spencer led 150 soldiers, led by the skinny policeman, to the place where Lin Fei was holding the police, but the place where Lin Fei was holding the policeman was not close, and he had not reached it for more than half an hour.

Spencer was a little impatient, looked at his watch, and complained, "It's past four o'clock in the afternoon, and tonight's dance party won't be in time anyway!" ”

The skinny policeman didn't dare to say anything, so he had to smile and say, "It should be almost there." ”

Spencer is still complaining: "The trouble is dead, and a group of robbers want me to do it myself!" ”

At this moment, Spencer suddenly heard a "bang" from the woods on both sides, and Spencer's first reaction was - this is a gunshot!

Immediately after, only the sound of "bang bang bang" was heard from the woods on both sides, and the Spanish soldiers were killed more than thirty in the blink of an eye, Spencer hurriedly took out the pistol from his waist, he felt that there were many people in the woods, and his own people were not opponents at all, and hurriedly shouted: "Retreat, retreat quickly." ”

After Spencer finished speaking, he turned around and ran, and the subordinates behind him also turned around and ran towards Wuduan City, but they had already entered the encirclement of Lin Fei's troops at this time, and it was too late to escape.

The troops arranged by Lin Fei on both sides of the woods were two elite battalions, more than 800 people, and it was not a piece of cake to pack up more than 100 Spanish soldiers? Lin Fei saw that more than half of the Spaniards were defeated in the blink of an eye, and the rest threw down their rifles and fled, so he ordered the trumpeter: "Blow the trumpet!" ”

The trumpeter picked up the trumpet and blew the passionate charging horn, and the soldiers in the woods roared and rushed out, Lin Fei had explained in advance that he wanted to catch him alive, so the soldiers did not shoot, but picked up the butts of their guns and knocked the Spanish soldiers to the ground, and in a short time they caught more than thirty Spanish soldiers, Spencer, and the skinny policeman.

Lin Fei saw from his military uniform that Spencer was a captain officer, walked up to him, and ordered sharply: "Name your position, the number of the unit you belong to, and your name." ”

Before Spencer could say anything, Lin Fei took out a pistol and killed a Spanish soldier, and shouted: "Hurry up!" ”

Seeing Lin Fei killing people without blinking, Spencer trembled with fright, and hurriedly said: "My name is Spencer, I am the commander of the first company of the Wuduancheng garrison, and my military rank is captain. ”

Lin Fei was taken aback and asked, "Why did you only come to one company?" ”

Spencer said, "Our Commander Jackson heard that you didn't have guns, and thought you were just a bunch of bandits, so he didn't send too many troops. ”

Lin Fei secretly regretted it in his heart, originally thinking that he would let them relax their vigilance by not revealing their guns, but he didn't expect that they would only send a company and more than a hundred troops because of this.

At this time, a staff officer of the staff department came over, this staff officer is named He Kaisheng, an old businessman on Samar Island, who served as a staff member in the Qing army in his early years, and is not unfamiliar with the skills of marching and arranging, camping and building villages, so Lin Fei asked him to be his staff officer.

He Kaisheng said: "Captain, your plan to encircle and send reinforcements has only hit one company, and the enemy still has more than 1,000 people, what should we do now?" ”

Lin Fei didn't know what to do at this time, but he quickly came up with a plan and said: "We will continue to use the trick of encircling the point to send reinforcements, and the points we are surrounding are still there, so we don't have to worry about the reinforcements not coming." ”

He Kaisheng was taken aback for a while, and persuaded earnestly: "Captain, please think twice, the Spaniards' troops have been wiped out by us, and the troops behind are bound to be alert, and they will not honestly enter our ambush circle." ”

Lin Fei smiled nonchalantly and said, "Don't worry, Mr. He, I have my own clever plan." After Lin Fei finished speaking, he pointed at the thin policeman with his hand, and hooked his fingers, meaning to let him come over, the thin policeman didn't understand that he came over, Lin Fei's subordinates pushed him in front of Lin Fei like cattle, Lin Fei sneered and asked, "What about your ransom?" Have you taken it? ”

The thin policeman shook his head again and again, Lin Fei pointed at Spencer and the others, and said: "I asked you to pay the ransom, but you didn't pay it, and even sent troops to beat me, it's really hateful, now the ransom price has risen, each person wants 800,000 pesos, and a total of forty-three people have been arrested, and the total price is ...... Forget it, I don't count it either, you ask Jackson to prepare 50 million pesos, and I'll kill them all if I don't have a penny. ”

The skinny policeman agreed repeatedly, and asked tentatively, "Why don't you go back and report now?" ”

Lin Fei looked at the sky and said, "It's going to be dark, you may have wolves and other fierce beasts here, it's nothing to eat you, but my ransom is gone, so let's do it-Zhang Chuang!" ”

Zhang Chuang heard Lin Fei's greeting, replied "Yes" in a loud voice, and walked in front of Lin Fei, Lin Fei pointed at the thin policeman with his hand, and said, "You ride a fast horse, send this guy to the outside of Wuduan City, and then come back." ”

Zhang Chuang agreed, tied the thin policeman's hands behind his back, threw it on the horse's buttocks, and walked to Wuduan City, the fast horse ran for more than 20 minutes, came to the outside of Wuduan City, picked up the thin policeman and threw it down, the skinny policeman was turned upside down, and was thrown again, almost not dead, and it took a while to get up from the ground and stumble into Wuduan City.

By the time the skinny policeman saw Jackson, it was already dark, and Jackson saw that only the skinny policeman had come back in a bad way, and hurriedly asked, "What happened?" Spencer, what about them? What about my elite troops? ”

The thin policeman said with a sad face: "We were ambushed, they had guns, many people died, Captain Spencer and more than thirty people were caught, by the way, they also raised the ransom to 50 million!" ”

Jackson said viciously: "What 50 million ransom! The biggest bank in Manila can't come up with that much money either! This group of people is here to find fault and provoke, and I think they must be the Moro people of the island. ”

The skinny policeman said, "But they are all Chinese." ”

Jackson shook his head and said: "It can't be Chinese, the Chinese are the most honest and the most obedient, and it is absolutely impossible for them to do such a thing." ”

The thin policeman didn't dare to speak anymore, and Jackson sneered and said: "It's already dark today, it's not the time to send troops, and tomorrow morning, I will personally lead the large troops, wipe them all out, notify the fire company, and bring all the eight Makqin heavy machine guns." ”

The adjutant beside Jackson agreed, and early the next morning, Jackson gathered his troops, and then gathered the commanders of the various units for a meeting, at which Jackson said: "Our men were ambushed yesterday, so we should be careful with our march today." ”

Jackson asked his lieutenant to take out a map, hang it on the wall, point to the map and say: "There is a distance of about two kilometers from the exit of the city to the nearest woods, and it is impossible for the enemy to ambush us within this distance, because there is no terrain to cover us, and they can ambush us when we reach the edge of the woods, so we must be more careful after entering the woods." ”

"In order to prevent being ambushed, after entering the woods, we will act in a company unit, with a distance of 400 to 500 meters from each other, so that no matter which company the enemy ambushes, the other companies can outflank us in a roundabout way, and at that time it will not be the enemy ambushing us, but we will encircle and annihilate the enemy!"

All the officers gave a thumbs up and praised Jackson's plan in unison, and Jackson showed a smug face and said: "I will concentrate the fire company and put it under my unified command, so as not to distribute the fire to each company and cause the fire to be scattered, okay, let's act." ”

After Jackson said this, he led the troops out of the city, and walked towards the place where Lin Fei was holding the prisoners under the leadership of the thin policeman.

Jackson was thinking about it, when he suddenly heard a loud "boom" coming from the east side of the team, Jackson looked up at the place where the sound came from, only to see a cloud of black smoke rising into the air, as if something had exploded, and the entire Spanish army was stunned, not knowing what was happening.

At this moment, another explosion sounded on the east side of the procession, this time only more than fifty meters away from the team, and the sound frightened the horse pulling the Maxim heavy machine gun cart, the horse let out a panicked howl, and the hooves were restlessly treading on the ground, and the groom grabbed the reins of the horse with all his might, and shouted the command "stop" in a loud voice.

Jackson commanded, "Scout, hurry up and see what's going on......"

Before Jackson's words fell, he felt that his back was pushed violently by a strange force, and he involuntarily fell forward, and fell hard from the horse, and the moment he fell to the ground, he only heard a loud "boom" behind him, he turned his head to look, only to see a cloud of black smoke shrouded in a Makqin heavy machine gun car, the wind blew away the black smoke, the Makqin heavy machine gun that he regarded as a treasure had been blown into a pile of parts, and the horse pulling the cart also fell to the ground, with blood and flesh blurred.

Only then did Jackson react, the thing that exploded was a cannonball! There are shells attacking us! Jackson was about to give the order for the crowd to disperse, when the other seven horses pulling the cart rushed out of the groom's pull like madness, and galloped unscrupulously, and one of the grooms was knocked down by the horse and trampled heavily by the horse's hooves.

Those horse-drawn machine gun carts were galloping through the crowd, many Spanish soldiers could not dodge, they were hit by horses or carts, and their bones were broken, and at this moment, there were screams in the sky, and in the blink of an eye, black clouds rose in the ranks of Spanish soldiers, and the loud sound of "boom boom" was connected into a piece.

The Spanish soldiers were amazed to find that each of these exploding shells could shoot countless knife-like fragments, which were enough to cut people into pieces, and after almost every explosion, a circle of people would fall, and their bodies would be blown into sieves!

Jackson cried out heartbreakingly, "What's going on? How did the Moros have artillery? ”
