Xia Wanchun smiled bitterly and said, "My lord, Inspector Qin insists on this, which of us can persuade him?" And at that time, above the sea, although the English had nowhere to escape, we had nowhere to place them, so we had to follow the advice of Inspector Qin......"

It's not stupid to check the bolt, Qin Mufeng's pouting is twisted up, who can control him?

"Now your plan will definitely not work, we must take Spain as soon as possible, and then return to attack Batavia, and let the Dutch completely stop before England gets the news! They must not be given a chance to join forces! ”

Cha Xuan shouted in a deep voice, "Cungu, immediately lead the cavalry under your command, even the cavalry of the first town will be handed over to you, and immediately set off to Manila again, ready to rush the main force of the Spanish army with Mu Feng, in order to take Manila City in the shortest possible time!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

Xia Wanchun hurriedly bowed and replied.

"Zhao Xin!"

Cha Bolt shouted.

Zhao Xin on the side hurriedly bowed down and said, "Lord Ministry! ”

"Immediately deploy artillery on the peninsula overnight, deploy all the artillery we can use to the east side of the peninsula, form a confrontation with Corregidor Island, and tomorrow noon, we will launch a general attack on Corregidor Island, and in one fell swoop will end the last stronghold of the Spaniards at the mouth of Manila! Let the special operations battalion rest and prepare for landing operations tomorrow! ”

Zhao Xin arched his hand and went down to prepare.

Cha Xuan's brows were furrowed, he still felt uneasy, what he was most worried about now was whether he could encircle and annihilate all the Spaniards before the Dutch arrived, after all, there was not much distance from Batavia to Luzon, once the Dutch came, it would be difficult to encircle and annihilate the Spaniards......

"Someone!"

A personal guard hurriedly walked over, bowed and said, "My lord! ”

"Immediately send a letter to Yang Geng and Zheng Haotian, and let Lord Yang closely monitor the movements in the open sea, I always have a bad feeling, maybe the Dutch are going to make a move, let Zheng Haotian prepare to lead the Second Fleet to fight tomorrow and attack Correshido Island with all his might, I will give him a day and a night, no matter how much it costs, Correcido Island must be taken!"

"Yes, sir!"

The next day, the sky had just dawned, and Cha Xuan was sitting on a piece of bluestone and was pretending to sleep, and above the lighthouse, the crisp sound of the gong sounded!

Cha Zhu jumped up, and a sentry on the lighthouse had already run down at high speed, knelt on the ground and said urgently: "Lord Qiqi Ministry!" In the Bay of Manila, another fleet of ships came and joined the Spanish fleet! ”

Cha Zhu was shocked, and hurriedly walked up to the lighthouse, holding a telescope and looking into the distance!

Sure enough, the number of ships in the Spanish fleet has begun to approach three hundred, and it is a full dozen miles away from the fortress on the Bataan Peninsula!

Cha Xuan's brows furrowed tightly, another fleet is coming, reinforcements from the Spanish fleet? Impossible, in the two days of the big war, Spain has been at a disadvantage, if there were still battleships behind, they should have been pulled up a long time ago, it was not a battleship, and what was it? Merchant vessel? Troop carriers?

Yes!

It should be the merchant ships and troop carriers of the Spaniards! The Spaniard sensed that something was wrong and was about to run!

Xia Wanchun said that the main force of the Tianxiong Army was under the city of Manila, that is, in three or two days, with Qin Mufeng's character of fighting and not wanting to die, the progress of the battle situation would only be faster than Xia Wanchun's prediction, not slower!

"Someone, send an order, immediately send a message to Lord Yang Geng, mobilize the two battalions of the First Fleet to advance to the southeast to support the Second Fleet, but the Spaniards must be blocked, the Spaniards are going to run away!"

Cha Xuan shouted sharply: "Send an order to Zhao Xin, deploy artillery with all your might, transport ammunition, fire with all your might, block the strait, and absolutely not let the Spanish fleet rush out!" ”

The two armies of the Ming army, both sea and land, all took action, and all the artillery on the Bataan Peninsula was put into the attack, and one shell was hit on the island of Correshido, and the shells flew densely in the sky. That's the rhythm of looking for death!

Not only the Bataan Battery, but also the Second Fleet, got the order of the Bolt, and immediately began to attack, one after another the battleships aimed their guns at Corregido Island, and carried out rounds of shooting, preparing to suppress the breakthrough attack of the Spaniards, and the two naval divisions of the First Fleet began to approach the southeast at the same time.

The Second Fleet, plus the two large battalions of the First Fleet, has gathered nearly 300 warships of all sizes at the mouth of Manila Bay, blocking the sea to the death, and the Spanish fleet is rushing out at this time, which is as difficult as climbing to the sky!

On the flagship, Davis held a telescope in his hand, constantly looking into the distance, when he saw the Ming warships at the mouth of the sea, Davis's heart was like beating a drum, damn, there are so many warships, the main warships alone are already more than 100! How to rush out?

Cohen, you have to be the talker, if your East India Company fleet doesn't show up at this time, it will kill Lao Tzu......

Davis muttered silently in his heart, and asked, "Montello, have you rushed out of the sea under the cover of the Corregido Island Battery?" ”

Montellio smiled wryly, "My lord, are you kidding?" If the Bataan Peninsula did not fall into the hands of the Ming army, I am sure to rush out, now not only are the periphery of the sea mouth all the warships of the Ming army, but more importantly, now the Bataan Peninsula is also full of Ming artillery, look at this firepower, at least the Ming army deployed more than 100 artillery pieces, completely sealed the strait between the Bataan Peninsula and Corregido Island, so rush out, our warships will suffer at least half of the casualties, and if we go out, we will face the siege of two or three hundred Ming warships, do you think we have a chance to retreat? ”

Davis's face darkened, so to speak, there is only one way to wait for the Dutch fleet to pick up, if the Dutch don't come, these people will really have only a dead end......

Fortunately, at this time, the Dutch really did not disappoint Davis, and just when Davis and Montella were very anxious, the Dutch fleet finally arrived off the coast of Manila Bay!

Although the Luzon Islands are the territory of the Spaniards, but in terms of familiarity with the geographical situation of the South Seas, the Dutch are better than the Spaniards, not to mention the Ming soldiers can compare, this time Soria directly avoided the front, made a detour from the south, and by the time the ships of the First Fleet discovered the Dutch fleet, the Dutch fleet had already thrown off the First Fleet and came to the vicinity of the sea!

"Order all warships to prepare for battle, use all the artillery that can be used, tear a hole in the encirclement of the Ming fleet, and take the Spaniards to kill them!"
