Chapter 1663: Attack on Manila (XIII)

"Knock the door open!" Sun Zhen ordered through gritted teeth. Two of his men had fallen in the attack, and the attacker was hiding in the brown-and-red façade of the house on the side of the street.

As soon as his voice fell, a strong man immediately flashed behind him, no less tall than the tall Sun Zhen, carrying a black cylindrical thing in his hand. This is a door-breaking hammer that was issued before the start of the war and was used by the troops entering the city in street battles, which looks inconspicuous, but weighs fifty or sixty pounds. The principle of this thing is the same as that of a battering ram, which also uses physics to break the latch of the door to achieve the effect of breaking the door.

The strong man gestured in front of the door, grabbed the handle of the middle and back of the hammer with both hands, raised it high, and then slammed it out and smashed it against the door in front of him. A "click" was heard, and the door opened, and a group of soldiers who had been impatient immediately poured into the house.

For Sun Zhen, street fighting in downtown Manila is undoubtedly a new experience, and it has rarely been such a tricky environment in his combat missions in the past few years. The streets and alleys, which were only two or three meters wide, were lined with small buildings of two or three floors, densely covering the entire city, and the Spanish defenders scattered and huddled in these houses, sniping at the Haihan troops who entered the city with muskets, bows and arrows, and even throwing short spears.

These people often only attacked once in one location, and whether they succeeded or not, they would immediately evacuate and move to the next attack point, taking advantage of their familiarity with the local environment to hide in Tibet, while the Haihan army in the narrow streets had no time to launch an effective counterattack against them, and had to disperse, emptying the houses on both sides of the street one by one. But in this way, it will inevitably engage the enemy in a narrow space indoors, and the naval advantage of the Han army will also be greatly reduced, and the speed of advance will be far less than when they were attacking outside the city earlier.

But Sun Zhen didn't have a better way to do this, he received an order to open the route between the south gate and the east gate as soon as possible, and assist the South China Sea Special Operations Brigade outside the city to seize control of the east gate, but as far as the current situation is concerned, he has to go through another vicious battle before reaching the east gate.

The Hai Han soldiers who poured into the house did not encounter any resistance, and after searching the upstairs and downstairs rooms, they only found the owner's family of seven, a husband and wife, four children, and an old lady who was a cook and nanny. Although the family was all Spaniards, it was clear that they were not the armed men that the Haihan army wanted to capture.

Sun Zhen entered the house to inspect the family, several children subconsciously retreated behind their parents' backs, although they didn't know the identity of the person who came, but they could feel the invisible murderous aura that oppressed them, and the nature of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages made them feel that it was safer to stay away from this big Oriental.

"Did you find any weapons in this house?" asked Sun Zhenfa.

"No, the man who attacked us just now slipped through the back door before he broke down. The sergeant who led the search of the house immediately replied.

Sun Zhen didn't intend to take the anger out of his heart on these innocent civilians, so he waved his hand impatiently and said, "Take them all away and send them to the prisoner of war camp, remember to ask the interpreter to confirm their identities again." ”
