Chapter 437: The Jumping Beam Clown (Part II)
"Attack me, and then wipe out these inappropriate Filipino natives for me!" Sa Zhenbing shouted to his army.
Soon, the army of the Philippine troops under Sa Zhenbing began a full-scale carpet search of Luzon, the largest island in the Philippines. Their mission was then to clean up the resistance of these indigenous Filipinos and bring about the end of the so-called Philippine Republic of Nengga. Now that the Republic of the Philippines has been openly established, it is impossible for them to continue to live amicably with Taiwan. Once a nation is proclaimed, it can only be eliminated according to the idea that there are no two heavens and no two people. There is only one central government in a country, especially if China is a unitary state, and this kind of thing will not be allowed to exist. This kind of guy can only be eliminated, not retained. What's more, the national consciousness of the Philippines has also begun to awaken, and if we do not completely eliminate them before they spread completely, I am afraid it will be very troublesome. And once the national consciousness of the Philippines awakens, it will definitely be followed by continuous uprisings, so it is necessary to use absolute strength to suppress them.
And then from the country to immigrate, change the ethnic demographic composition here. Only by changing the demographic composition of the nation can we gain real domination over the land. As for the original owners of this land, who cares so much, just let them go where they need to go.
"Attack!" Soldiers of the Philippine Garrison began to search everywhere.
In addition, the Taiwanese army hired Spanish officers and soldiers from the former Philippines as guides, and then they easily searched the lair of those Filipinos step by step. Although these Spaniards were not very good at weapons, they had combat experience against these Filipinos, and their knowledge of the indigenous Filipinos was far greater than Taiwan's understanding of the indigenous Filipinos. The presence of these guides has helped the Taiwanese army reduce a lot of casualties. Because they know the Philippine style of warfare very well, they know where to be ambushed by the Filipinos.
And the Taiwanese army and the Spaniards here did not have much hatred, and the fighting between the Taiwanese troops in the Philippines and the Spaniards only shelled Manila. Then the Filipinos retreated on their own initiative, and there was no direct contact war, and the Spaniards suffered little losses. Therefore, the Spaniards in the Philippines did not have the same hatred for the Taiwanese army as Sumatra, but gave the two sides the possibility of cooperation now, and Taiwan hired Philippine officers and soldiers to act as guides to attack those enemies along the way. Anyway, this Philippines does not belong to Spain. This should be a matter decided by those high-ranking officials, and they are just small soldiers and junior officers, and they have nothing to do with themselves. Anyway, now that the Taiwanese military is willing to hire them, they don't mind making a lot of money before leaving.
"President, no, these Taiwanese and Spaniards actually wear a pair of pants, and they work together to clean us up. They had Filipinos as guides, and they cooperated to attack us, so that the Spaniards were familiar with the terrain. There are also Taiwanese soldiers whose weapons are very good, and their firepower is already fiercer than ours, and they can easily clean us up. ”
And Aguinaldo immediately asked, "What's going on with this, how did they come together?" And, can't we ambush them? As long as we choose the terrain well, then we can completely cancel out the advantages of many of their weapons! What's more, we are here in the mountains and dense forests, and their various heavy weapons cannot be brought in, how can they have too much combat effectiveness? Didn't I say that. As long as the terrain is well chosen, then we will have no problem. ”
"President. No! Those Taiwanese troops had the Spaniards as their guides, and although the strength of those Spaniards was not as good as that of the Taiwanese army, they were more experienced in fighting against us. They have been fighting with us for a long time, and they are familiar with our common tactics, so they immediately instructed those Chinese troops, so that many of our ambushes were prepared in advance by the Chinese army. We were only able to retreat. Whenever they had any doubts, they would also fire a few small cannons. But when our soldiers saw the enemy's cannons, they all began to shout, and the result was exposed! ”
"Bastard!" Aquinato said angrily.
Once these Taiwanese troops and the Spaniards cooperated, the effect they achieved was not one plus one equals two. It's that one plus one is greater than two. Although Taiwan's military is strong, it is not very familiar with the terrain and culture here, and is not familiar with the fighting methods of the Philippines. Although the Spaniards don't look at their weak combat effectiveness, although they were bullied by the indigenous rebels in the Philippines before, they have accumulated a lot of experience in fighting with the natives, and now they have helped Taiwan, which is equivalent to increasing the combat effectiveness of the Taiwanese army by more than fifty percent, and the casualties have also decreased greatly. Otherwise, even if the Taiwan army falls into an indigenous ambush circle, it is likely that the superiority in weapons will be canceled out a lot, so the combat effectiveness can be imagined. The shortcomings of Taiwan's armed forces are not small, that is, once they lose their advanced weapons, the combat capability of cold weapons in hand-to-hand combat is actually worse than that of the natives. This is also inevitable, just like the fighting skills of modern people are often inferior to those of ancient people, which is also the consequence of getting used to advanced weapons.
"President, let's retreat! Retreat to Samar Island! Immediately an indigenous general said.
"Well, retreat! Our retreat today is for tomorrow's counteroffensive. We first retreat, accumulate strength, and then prepare for a future counteroffensive! Aguinado shouted.
Soon, Taiwan's troops occupied this Luzon island in its entirety. But they were still a step too late, and Aguinaldo, the so-called president of the Republic of the Philippines, had already retreated in advance, and they had already retreated by boat, and they were about to reach Samar Island.
"Order the navy, cover the army and give me a fierce chase! Anyway, sooner or later, we are all going to occupy this Philippine archipelago, chase me, and we must catch the president of the so-called Philippine Republic for me. Sa Zhenbing said.
"Yes!"
Aguinaldo, the president of the so-called Republic of the Philippines, finally made his way from Luzon to Samar Island under the protection of thousands of soldiers. And when he arrived on Samar Island, his confidence was restored.
"We must establish a base on Samar Island, and then counterattack Luzon!" Aguinaldo shouted excitedly.
"President, no, the Chinese Navy is chasing after you. They seem to be chasing after them with infantry! ”
"What? How did it come so quickly? Aquinado scolded.
"Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"
The destroyers and frigates began to open fire, and then bombarded the targets on the islands of Samar. Although the caliber of the guns of these destroyers and frigates is only more than 70 millimeters, the power is also very huge, and the guns are enough to form a prototype no-man's land with a diameter of 40 meters. And where have those natives seen such fierce artillery fire, because they were in the mountains, the artillery of the Taiwanese army could not be carried, so they could only go into battle lightly. In this way, they have not experienced real artillery bombardment, but now they have been bombarded by artillery, which makes them really depressed.
In just a few minutes, dozens of guns from dozens of destroyers and frigates poured down into these thousands of people, and such powerful artillery caused these thousands of people to suffer heavy losses. They lost more than a thousand people in these few minutes, many of whom were wounded.
"It hurts me!" Aquinato clutched his arms and said, apparently he had been hit by shrapnel.
"President, go!" A Filipino soldier said.
The Filipino soldier pushed Aquinado into the woods, as long as he had a little combat experience in everything, the enemy knew that the woods were places where the power of firearms was reduced, so he rushed into the woods, and even if the Taiwanese army had more shells, the power would be very small. That's why you can save your life when you get to the woods.
"Order the army immediately, land for me!" Sa Zhenbing said on the flagship.
"Kill!"
The army of the Philippine troops began to land, and those Philippine troops had been almost killed and injured by the artillery fire just now, and the rest of the people had no need to be rescued. However, the Taiwan army will not give them a good time, because the Taiwan army is a "benevolent and righteous army" and will not kill the wounded enemy.
"Report to Commander Saga, we have killed most of the soldiers of the Republic of the Philippines. And the remaining small part of the troops, no more than a company, ran away with their puppet president. ”
"Give me chase, cut the grass without roots, the spring breeze blows and grows!" Sa Zhenbing said.
"Yes!"
Soon, the troops also went into the dense forest, and then began to hunt for Aguinaldo. If we don't clean up those indigenous Filipinos as soon as possible, Taiwan's future migrants will not be safe. Therefore, they must be cleaned up, otherwise Taiwan's military will not be able to obtain security, and naturally they will not be able to immigrate here in peace. The destructive power of this kind of guerrilla force on the economy is very huge, and if they are not cleaned up, the immigrants will not be able to produce steadily, so it will definitely not work. In addition, since the Philippines itself is president, there is no need to bypass him, because since they have already claimed to be the founding of the country, they will definitely not be allowed.
Then, as the troops in the Philippines continued to encircle and suppress, Aguinaldo was finally arrested three years later and then sentenced to death. However, this is all for later, and now that the organized resistance in the Philippines has been completely wiped out, the rest of the people will either be obedient to the people, or they will be scattered all over the country to fight guerrillas. However, these are all in vain, and when Taiwanese immigrants arrive, their living space will be squeezed smaller and smaller, and finally eliminated. (To be continued......)
