Chapter 1470: Interception of Baines

In Manila City, after the departure of the Spanish fleet, Davis still felt a burst of unsteadiness in his heart, pacing back and forth, thinking about how to deal with it.

No way!

With thousands of Spanish troops, it is not so easy to resist the attack of the Ming army's elite cavalry, not to mention that the Ming army's fleet has appeared in the open sea, and people will be put into the attack at any time.

Davis suddenly stopped and shouted: "Come, immediately send an order to General Baptista of Dasmarinias, ordering General Baptista to mobilize five thousand elite forces and return to Manila Bay!" ”

Fast horse messenger, eighty miles away, it only took half a day, the messenger arrived at Dasmarinias, and the order was passed to Dasmarinias.

Baptista, who got the news, felt a big formation, and a cavalry army bypassed Manila and launched an attack on the Bataan Peninsula? How did they do it? Why didn't I get any news? It's understandable that he didn't get the news, after all, he was fighting a fierce battle with the Ming army, and he didn't care so much, but what about Davis? The Governor, without even getting the slightest bit of trouble, was beaten to the Bataan Peninsula in one go, which is too useless......

"General Baptista, Your Excellency the Governor has given an order, ordering you to immediately transfer five thousand elites to Manila to reinforce the Bataan Peninsula, if you move slowly, I am afraid that the Bataan Peninsula will not be able to hold it!"

The person came and said urgently.

The corners of Baptista's mouth twitched, and he said astringently: "Rush to Manila? Sanchis, you said it simply, now I lead nearly 30,000 troops, defend Dasmarinias, is already barely supporting, there are more than 30,000 Ming troops on the opposite side, strong combat power, we have been fighting fiercely for more than six days, six days, our troop losses have exceeded 10,000 people, the Ming army is constantly attacking, once I transfer away 5,000 elites, this Dasmarinias will definitely not be able to support a few days! ”

Sanchis said urgently: "General, Dasmarinias is lost, we can retreat to Manila, and even withdraw from Luzon from Manila Bay, but once Manila Bay is lost, we will be trapped on Luzon Island, and when the Ming army pursues it with victory, none of us will survive!" ”

Baptista's heart was gloomy for a while, this time the strength of the Ming army was too strong, the Ming army was originally coming for the Dutch, and he completely suffered from the pond fish, unlucky, too unlucky, Spain turned out to be the scapegoat of the Dutch!

"Okay, pass the order, mobilize five thousand elite forces, and immediately return to Manila City!"

Baptista had no choice but to rescue Manila, after all, Manila is the center of Luzon, Dasmarinas is important, but it is just a barrier to Manila, if Manila falls, then Dasmarinias will completely lose the meaning of existence.

Baptista had to order reinforcements, but how easy was it to return to Manila?

The Tianxiong army on the opposite side has been attacking Dasmarinas every day for six days, but they have not done their best, just hanging the Spanish army here to death, making them unable to move.

Soon Tan Guilin got the news of the retreat of the Spanish army, and Tan Guilin laughed and said: "Okay, Master Inspector, the Spaniards can't stand it!" This is to return to Manila Bay, and now I'm afraid that Cungu has made a mess on the Bataan Peninsula, so we can't let them escape! This time I personally led the army to block it, my lord, the attack on Dasmarinias will be handed over to you, in the shortest possible time, take Dasmarinias, and advance towards Manila City! ”

Tan Guilin directly ordered the Tianxiong army in front of the left to start advancing at full speed in the northeast direction, preparing to intercept the Spanish army, Qin Mufeng was also elated, he was finally going to kill this main force of Spain, as long as he killed the main force of the Spanish army, just relying on the Spanish fleet, he would not be able to hold Luzon Island at all!

Baptista's 5,000 main elite had just run out of less than ten miles before they were caught up by Tan Guilin's Tianxiong army, Tan Guilin commanded an infantry battalion, and all 6,000 troops were put into the attack, and they attacked directly towards the Spanish reinforcements!

Kill!

The Tianxiong Army has been nesting in Dasmarinias for six days, and in the past six days, they have not fought a battle happily, and if they hold it back, they will be sick, and they will go all out as soon as they come up!

By the time the Spanish army found out, the Tianxiong army was already close at hand, Baines's face changed greatly, and the Ming army rushed up too fast!

"Order, line up to fight, line up to fight!"

Baines directly ordered the battle, but the forward of the Ming army rushed straight up like a sharp sword, and the guns rang out, and the Spanish army that was suddenly attacked was too late even if it wanted to change formation, so it was rushed into two ends by the Ming army!

One by one, the soldiers of the Tianxiong Army listened to the bright bayonets and went straight into the formation of the Spanish army, and started a desperate fight!

"Drink!"

With a roar, the bayonets stabbed out one after another, the Spaniards were powerless to parry, and retreated, and the Tianxiong army behind quickly rushed up, surrounding the two Spanish troops in the middle.

Divide and surround!

The Tianxiong army continued to launch a sharp offensive, and Baines tried his best to command the Spaniards to counterattack, but the Spanish army, which had completely fallen into the disadvantage, and it was impossible to reverse the situation.

Tan Guilin didn't even want Qin Mufeng to charge into battle, just stood behind and commanded the Tianxiong army to constantly divide and encircle, constantly harvesting the lives of the Spaniards layer by layer, and the blood flowed like a river!

Baines was really dumbfounded this time, this is the Tianxiong Army, in the past few days, the Spanish army has never encountered such a ferocious attack by the Ming army, if the Ming army is so fierce as soon as it comes up, he and Baptista will definitely not be able to take six days! Damn, fooled, absolutely fooled, all this time, the Tianxiong Army has never used all its strength!
