"My lord, the soldiers of Huben Town are assembled, are you entering the city?" Deputy General Wang Tong stepped forward and asked in a low voice.

"No hurry, no hurry." Liu Yu muttered in a low voice, signaling Wang Tong to let the troops rest.

"Since the fleet of the Francophiles has escaped, then the Spaniards in the city are now trapped beasts, let them and the mercenaries and pirates consume, and we will enter the city at noon tomorrow."

At first, he feared that the Spaniards might use the advantage of their ships to quell the rebellion.

After all, the Spanish navy was extremely strong, both in terms of the guns on the ships and the musketeers on the deck.

Unlike Western ships of the same period, Spanish battleships carried not only sailors but also gunners with more than 100 musketeers.

The reason why each warship carries such a large infantry unit.

The main reason was that the Spanish colonies were spread throughout the Americas.

A large number of Galen ships roamed the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic, and were often attacked by pirates.

The Pirates of the Caribbean were famous in later generations, but they were not the greatest threat to the Spanish merchant fleet.

Because of the Caribbean pirates, there were usually only twenty or thirty sailors on a pirate ship, and it was difficult to threaten the armed merchant ships of the Spaniards.

Usually pirates do not need to be escorted by the navy, and the armed artillery on the ship is enough to make the pirates drink a pot.

However, the pirates encountered by the Spanish sailing fleet sailing in the Atlantic Ocean were a bit special.

It's not the kind of regular pirate who dares to go toe-to-toe with a pirate ship of twenty or thirty people.

Rather, it is a privateer of the Western Navy under the flag of pirates.

The advent of the Age of Discovery opened the way for Europe to become rich.

As the first to eat crabs, the Spaniards and Portuguese were naturally met with the eyes of continental Europe as well as England.

Looking at the galleons laden with American silver rampaging across the ocean, the king of any European country did not blush.

As a result, many countries encouraged pirates to rob the Spanish sailing fleet, and even gave them war ships and artillery.

During the Thirty Years' War, there were even European navies that directly flew pirate flags to plunder Spanish merchant fleets.

This forced the Spanish Navy to add more soldiers to the battleships as a way to guard against pirate embarkation.

During the siege of Lasag by the pirates, whenever the Spanish city defense army could not hold it, the Spanish navy would send musketeers on battleships to assist in reinforcements, which only repelled the pirates' attacks again and again.

And now, the Spanish navy had fled, and the fierce hundreds of Spanish musketeers had left with the ship.

With Rawag, the hundreds of colonial troops in the city could not suppress the rebellion.

In order to reduce unnecessary casualties, Liu Yu decided to stand still.

And the pirates in the city did not live up to Liu Yu's expectations.

The siege of Laoag's mansion lasted most of the night, but he could not knock on the door of Laoag's residence, and was even forced back by Spanish pikemen several times.

This made the pirates furious, and at the same time gradually calmed down.

Rumors of Lawag being full of gold have long spread throughout the South Seas.

Laoag City is not a place with a big palm, so why stay here and die.

Many pirates spread out and explored other places.

Naturally, I encountered the mercenaries.

In particular, on a shopping street, a group of mercenaries escorted boxes of looted treasure to the docks, only to be spotted by pirates who took advantage of the chaos.

Without saying a word, the two groups of people fought.

This group of mercenaries was originally a transport team, with no more than 20 people, which was the opponent of hundreds of pirates, and they were all killed by pirates after a while.

This angered the mercenaries, and the mercenaries not far away didn't care about plundering the remaining rich merchants, and rushed directly to fight the pirates.

Not to be outdone, the pirates saw the mercenaries coming, and ran while dragging the wooden box, and a few nimble legs ran directly back to the mansion.

At this moment, the thousands of pirates in the sub-city were boiling.

The pirates besieged the Laoag Mansion because the Spaniards had gathered here to resist so much that the pirates thought it contained gold, silver and jewels.

This was a good thing, and a small box of Spanish silver dollars fell to the ground, and the pirates around him were stunned.

So the pirates besieging Laoag's mansion rushed to kill the mercenaries.

The mercenaries were so angry, because of the lack of information, they didn't know where this group of pirates came from.

For a time, the mercenaries, who were obviously inferior in numbers, were driven out of the rich merchant area by pirates.

Pirates are ruthless, and mercenaries are not easy to mess with.

Soon the mercenaries also gathered, especially the mercenaries of the port, and the escape of the Spanish navy made the mercenaries besieging the port idle all at once.

With the arrival of the dock mercenaries, especially after bringing a few eagle cannons, the pirates were suppressed in an instant.

It's not that the pirates can't do it, most of the mercenaries use cold weapons, but they are also equipped with a lot of firearms, although the firepower is weaker than the Spaniards, but the mercenaries are not afraid of death, and they are organized.

This puts the pirates in an obvious disadvantage, the pirates' weapons are worse than the mercenaries, and although the Ming army has raised these pirates these days, it is not for them to eat idle food, digging trenches, pushing artillery, dirty work and tiring work, the food is not as good as the Ming army, and from time to time the pirates are often hungry due to the deduction of the Ming army generals.

The pirates who were used to living a carefree life naturally didn't do it, but the leaders of several riots were beheaded by the Ming army, and the rest of the troublemakers were generously sent by Liu Yu to the mining department for mining.

After going back and forth like this, the pirates were temporarily settled, but their fierce temperament was also cut off a lot.

And he was hungry and fought with the mercenaries, so he naturally retreated.

However, pirates are not good at stubble, and they can't fight these mercenaries, so they directly set fires.

Houses were set on fire at each retreat, and for a time the fire spread in Laoag.

Looking at the raging fire burning in the street in the distance, Xiao Wu frowned.

Ever since the Spanish fleet escaped, Xiao Wu immediately led the town of Sailor into the port dock.

The mercenaries on the dock were very knowledgeable, and the armed merchant ships in the hands of the mercenaries were honestly parked there, and there was no conflict with the sailors.

And as the mercenaries and pirates fought, the mercenaries of the docks also joined in the fight against the pirates.

The soldiers of Sailor Town took the opportunity to take the dock, but most of the armed merchant ships in the port fell into the hands of mercenaries, which made Xiao Wu's teeth itch.

"My lord, it seems that Huben Town did not enter the city as scheduled." Seeing the fire in the city, He Bin was also surprised.

According to common sense, after the Ming army entered the city, the mercenaries who had already made an agreement with the Ming army should not set fire to the city like this, and the Spaniards who were trapped in the city were even more unlikely to do so.

"It seems that the soldiers of Huben Town have not entered the city!" Xiao Wu sighed.

"What?" He Bin was stunned,

"Who set the fire in that city?"

"Do you remember that Liu Yu'er borrowed the 1,000 pirates from me?" Xiao Wu shook his head, looking helpless.

He Bin suddenly realized that Liu Yu had proposed to Xiao Wu a thousand pirates who would attach themselves to Shuishi Town, and Xiao Wu generously agreed.

After all, more than 1,000 people are more than 1,000 mouths, Xiao Wu had no food and had to rely on Liu Yu for help, so after extorting Liu Yu a sum of money, he generously gave more than 1,000 pirates to Liu Yu.

However, Xiao Wu, the ships of these pirates, was naturally detained.

During this time, Liu Yu had been using these thousand pirates as labor, and Xiao Wu didn't think much about it.

Unexpectedly, it was not the Ming army that entered the city tonight, but this group of pirates.

"Liu Quan has a good nephew!" Looking at the fire in the city, Xiao Wu laughed, but his face gradually became gloomy.
