When Gil'an and General Bolu arrived at Mingcheng with their troops, it was already the evening of the third day.

Looking at the Ming City, which had already cleared the wall, General Bolu was overjoyed.

Along the way, what he was most worried about was that the Han people in the city would flee without a fight.

It's best not to escape, so that after capturing Ming City, the gold and silver treasures of the entire city are his Bolu's.

As it was twilight, Breux ordered his soldiers to camp in the rainforest a few miles away.

Soon after, three hundred Spanish soldiers arrived.

They did not choose to set up camp together, and the Spaniards chose to camp on a hill two miles away from the city.

The two armies were not subordinate to each other, and the communication between the two armies was conveyed by the Spanish chiefs of the tribes.

When the soldiers arrived in Mingcheng, the atmosphere in Mingcheng became extremely tense, and the city walls and streets were full of Ming soldiers stationed on patrol.

Because it is a coastal defense fortress, the Ming city is relatively small and has only four city gates, which makes the Ming army a blessing in disguise, and can calmly arrange all the artillery that is not redundant.

The main general Huang Liangji and King Lu guarded the east gate, the deputy general Li Daoan guarded the north gate, Xiao Ke guarded the south gate, and the west gate was guarded by Liu Quan because it was backed by the sea.

Early the next morning, Zhu Honghuan, the king of Lu, resolutely climbed to the head of the East Gate.

I saw that he was wearing a gold-plated Dharma Protector Six-petal Ming Iron Helmet of the Six Ding Six Armor type, wearing a decorated auspicious bright light chest plate under the joint beast swallowing armor, holding a fire gun, standing on the head of the East Gate City.

This dress greatly boosted the morale of the Ming army.

Even the Ming prince climbed to the top of the city to live and die with them, and the Ming soldiers present had a reason not to fight hard?

"Da Ming is mighty."

"King Ming is mighty."

"Long live King Ming."

All the soldiers shouted in unison, all of them gearing up, and they were about to fight to the death with Shengfan.

Escorted by his own soldiers, Liu Yu walked to Huang Liangji's side.

"General Huang, can the firearms to defend the city be prepared?"

"Don't worry, the six Franc cannons and two Hongyi cannons are ready, and the heavy guns have been loaded."

"As for the rolling wood, the stone has also been transported to the city."

Liu Yu, who had just arrived from the West Gate, nodded with satisfaction when he saw this.

The most dangerous siege is the east gate and the west gate.

Liu Quan, as a fierce general, has soldiers under his command and has experienced a hundred battles, and Liu Yu is also relieved.

As for the Ming army at the east gate, which prepared sophisticated artillery, it should not be a problem to resist Shengfan's attack.

Looking at the banner of the Ming army on the city wall not far away, Bolu's blood boiled, and he felt that the glorious achievements of his ancestors would be repeated again.

"Order the army to attack, and we will have breakfast in Mingcheng."

Regardless of the fact that his soldiers were already exhausted after several days of travel, Bolu drew his sword and commanded his soldiers to attack the city immediately.

It's not that he's conceited, after all, in his eyes, there is no difference between Han and sheep.

When the Han people in Luzon rebelled and gathered an army of more than 10,000 people to kill the city of Manila, his grandfather led a mere 800 Bangbangya warriors and the Spanish army to kill the more than 10,000 Han Chinese troops.

This time he just moved the battlefield from Manila to Mingcheng, do you really think that with an abandoned coastal defense city and a mere army of more than 1,000 Han Chinese, you also want to block his Bolu's horses' hooves?

"Warriors, kill."

"Kill all these Han people, and the gold and silver treasures of the whole city are waiting for you."

Under Bolu's order, the already exhausted Shengfan soldiers beat their morale, brandished their scimitars, and rushed towards Mingcheng with short bows.

watched a group of soldiers who were not afraid of death rushing towards Mingcheng.

Major Gilan shook his head.

"Colonel, our artillery is not in place yet, do you want these indigenous soldiers to stop the attack temporarily." Beside Gil'an, an adjutant spoke.

"No need." Major Ji'an waved his hand.

"Let the grenadiers assist the artillery in carrying six nine-pounder guns to the high ground, and the musketeers will not move for the time being."

"As for Mingcheng, let these indigenous soldiers test our firepower."

For the besieging side, siege warfare is always a loss, and he Gilian does not dare to spend the Spanish soldiers on this fearless charge, after all, the Spanish soldiers are much more expensive than these natives.

This siege must be dominated by indigenous soldiers, if he really stupidly threw the Spanish soldiers on the battlefield and was shelled by the Ming army, it is estimated that Governor Juan will be able to kill him alive after he returns.

Let the Bangbangya people under the command of General Bolu go,

Anyway, how many native soldiers there are, even if they are dead, he Ji'an doesn't care.

General Bolu also knows this.

Seeing that the Spaniards did not move, and made it clear that they wanted to be spectators, General Blü was not angry.

But he didn't dare to point at Ji'an and scold, so he had to pour out his anger on the Ming army.

Soon the vanguard rushed to the effective range of the Ming artillery,

I saw those soldiers wearing rattan armor carrying wooden planks and rushing towards the city wall on a row of ladders.

As long as you pass through the rain of arrows of the Ming army, throw the plank onto the moat, and step over to set up a wooden ladder.

These soldiers have also experienced many inter-tribal conflicts, and they calmly rushed to the city wall in a hurry.

It's a pity that their so-called war is just a small fight between tribes, but today they encountered the Ming army.

In an instant, the mountain collapsed and the ground cracked,

A large number of artillery, the fiery guns,

A large number of shells, lead bullets, and arrows rained down on the soldiers.

A cannonball landed hundreds of paces away, overturning several soldiers in an instant, and together with the wooden ladder, it exploded into several pieces and flew into the sky.

"Ahh

Several of the soldiers were shot by the dense rain of arrows, and the arrows were pierced all over their bodies, and they screamed miserably and died of anger.

"Don't mess around, rush forward."

A military commander shouted,

Suddenly, a buckshot flew in,

The rattan shield held by the captain was torn apart in an instant,

Before the captain could feel the pain in his hand, the fragments of lead bullet had already pierced through the rattan armor and submerged into his abdomen.

He opened his mouth to shout,

I saw that the corners of my mouth kept overflowing with red blood, and finally fell to the ground.

As the soldiers approached, even the heavy firecrackers in the city opened fire.

"Put!"

With the roar of one of the co-presidents,

On the castle tower, a row of turtledoves chirped in unison, and wisps of gunpowder smoke rose.

This bird gun was made to resist the heavy arquebus of the Franc machine man in imitation of the Houjin,

It can shoot through plate armor at close range and cotton armor or wooden planks at a long distance, and is a sharp weapon specially used against the Eight Banners cavalry.

Because it is too heavy to carry, and it needs to be carried on a wooden frame before it can be fired, it is quite troublesome to use, but it can also exert its amazing power in this kind of siege warfare.

Rows of heavy buckshot knocked a sheng fan soldier wearing rattan armor to the ground, and not far away the Ming army was raining arrows, and the sheng fan soldier who pierced was in pain.

The strong bow used by the Ming army is much more powerful than the short bow used by the Shengfan soldiers.

The Ming army's strong bow has a range of up to 100 paces, and often the soldiers are shot down before they can draw their bows.

The soldiers close to the city wall were beaten by the Ming army in the city, and the soldiers in the distance were much more sad than them.
