With Kluivert's assurance, Davis was less panicked and calmed down.

"Bynes, immediately reorganize all our troops, send out cavalry, and keep a close eye on the enemy situation in the south!"

Davis shouted.

"Yes, Lord Governor!"

Bairns shouted and walked down.

"Bailly, immediately order the people to collect the wealth, collect all the wealth, load it all onto the ship, and prepare to rush out of Manila Bay tomorrow!"

"Yes, Lord Governor!"

The whole city of Manila was moved, the Spaniards had been operating in the Luzon Islands for nearly a hundred years, accumulating countless wealth, Bailly led hundreds of people, gathered gold and silver treasures everywhere, and loaded five troop carriers, Baines did not dare to slack off, and led people to Manila Bay overnight, rushing towards the Manila Bay Strait.

Manila Bay, now the Bataan Peninsula has fallen into the hands of the Ming army, Cha Xuan handed over the two fleets to Yang Geng and Zheng Haotian to command, and he led the first town of the Tianxiong Army to the Bataan Peninsula and joined Xia Wanchun.

Xia Wanchun's face did not have the joy of victory, but was a little gloomy. 、

"What's the matter, Cungu, you took the Bataan Peninsula, you have made the first contribution, why are you still not happy?"

Cha Shu laughed.

Xia Wanchun said in a sullen voice: "My lord, the last general led three thousand elite cavalry, day and night to the Bataan Peninsula, that is, to be able to take the fort in order to take the fort with lightning speed, as a result, after the first battle, the three thousand elite cavalry lost nearly a thousand people, if it were not for the help of the special combat battalion, I am afraid that our casualties will be even heavier, and when we take the entire Bataan Peninsula, these three thousand elite cavalry will almost be killed and wounded. He didn't peel me off? ”

Cha Shu slapped Xia Wanchun heavily, and said with a smile: "Okay, this is our second time going out to fight, and it is also the first time we really fight with Westerners, their firearms are much stronger than the Manchurians, and they are much stronger than the Dongying people, even compared with our Ming Empire, it is not much better!" Although it was a surprise attack, the Spaniards defended the danger and were condescending, and it was not easy to take down the opponent? If you only lose a thousand elites, you will have no face to see people, then Lao Tzu let the Manchurians stab Liu Zeqing in Shandong in Dongchang Mansion, and the entire Nanjing Zuozhen almost collapsed, is Lao Tzu going to jump directly into the Yellow River and drown? Victory or defeat on the battlefield is a common thing for soldiers, whether it is me or Qin Inspector, no one can be like the emperor and Brother Yifan, invincible, invincible, you kid is still young, and there are still boils, eat a trench and grow wise, remember not to fall twice in the same pit, then it will be done! ”

Xia Wanchun nodded hurriedly, whether it was Qin Mufeng or Cha Shu, it could be said that he was his elder, and he, the protégé of the Son of Heaven, was naturally a generation shorter than these die-hard friends who followed the emperor to fight the world.

"What's next, how are we supposed to fight? Tell me about it. ”

Cha Bolt continued.

Xia Wanchun said in a deep voice: "My lord, since I crossed the sea, ten days have passed, according to the calculation of time, I am afraid that the army of Inspector Qin will arrive under the city of Manila, that is, it is a matter of two or three days, once Inspector Qin and Tan Guilin lead the main army to the city of Manila, then Manila City will definitely not be able to support it for a few days, what we need to do now is to block the entrance to the sea in Manila and trap the Spaniards in the Bay of Manila!" As long as we trap them, even if we don't launch an onslaught, it won't be long before these Spaniards will collapse! ”

Cha Xuan turned around, took a deep breath, and sighed: "Cungu, you are right, this method may be the least cost of casualties for us, but, I want to ask you, our army is now lonely overseas, weapons, ammunition, grain and grass need to be transported from China, how do you ensure that every batch of materials can arrive in Luzon Islands safely and in time?" After traveling thousands of miles, even if we take the Luzon Islands, how much financial pressure will it bring to the imperial court? ”

Xia Wanchun's expression was stunned and he was speechless.

Cha continued: "Also, we have besieged Manila Bay, and even besieged Manila City, do you think everything will be fine? The Spaniards have been running Luzon for nearly 100 years, and no one knows how long they will be able to hold out, and you plan to spend it forever? We are fully sure that we will encircle and destroy the Spaniards, but once the Dutch can't sit still, send a large army to help? What if the English had not been moved by Scofa's words and continued to join forces with the Dutch Spaniards? ”

Xia Wanchun's face changed slightly, and he suddenly thought of one thing, that is, on the way, Inspector Qin killed all the English, who knows if there is any life? That's hundreds of people, and if one of them escapes alive, it will bring huge hidden dangers to this battle in the South Seas!

"Cun Gu, you are different from me and Mu Feng, and Shu Xinchen, Yang Chengzu He Yilong and others are also different, we are all born recklessly, there is no knowledge, the emperor wants you, that is to build you towards the future of the big brother of a fan, your future is not a town of soldiers, nor a fierce general who charges into battle, but a commander who strategizes to win thousands of miles, in recent years, your progress is not small, but your horizons have not been opened accordingly, if you continue like this, you will disappoint the emperor, don't follow Mu Fengxue, That's not your example, your role model is Big Brother Yifan! Do you understand? ”

In the past few years, especially since he took office as the chief soldier of Nanjing Right Town, he has indeed been a little lax, Nanjing Right Town, which is the elite main force of the first town and the second town of the Tianwei Army, he sat in the position of the chief soldier and began to be complacent, if it wasn't for Lord Cha to mention it, he would have been like this for the rest of his life!

"My lord's words, Wan Chun has written them all down and engraved them in my heart, Wan Chun will definitely not disappoint the emperor!"

Cha Xuan paused slightly, and then said: "My lord, there is one more thing, I didn't tell you, on the way to the Kingdom of Sulu, we once encountered a caravan of English, in order to cover our whereabouts, Inspector Qin gave an order and wiped out this caravan......"

"What?"

Xia Wanchun's face changed greatly, and he shouted: "Why don't you discourage such a big thing?" If the news leaks out, where will the English ally with us? Foolish, a bunch of fools! Mu Feng is confused, are you, Tan Guilin and Zheng Chenggong also confused! ”
