Chapter 192 Capture

His men were not in a hurry when they heard the order, thinking that they had found soft sailing ships in the fleet, and he thought they were Dutch.

Because the Dutch had coveted Luzon before, and had two conflicts with them, they were not convinced and came to provoke them again.

He only glanced at the bunker by the sea, and when he saw the fleet coming towards Luzon, he ran to the governor's palace.

"Governor, Governor, it is possible that the Dutch fleet is coming from the sea, I saw the soft sailing ships, but I can't see their flags because they are a little farther away."

As soon as Boone heard that it was the Dutch fleet, he breathed a sigh of relief, it was better if it was not a Franciscan.

If it was the Dutch, there was nothing to fear, it was just a defeat.

"Go and get the gunners ready, and bombard me whenever you see them near the shoreline!"

"Yes!"

Boone waved his hand to continue carrying the treasure to the warehouse.

These treasures were the riches he intended to bring back to his country this year, and if they were better than the other colonies, they should be rewarded by the king, and perhaps the king would give him a knighthood when he was pleased.

Whether it is a duke or a viscount, the main thing is to facilitate him to walk outside, and people in the royal family of his country will give him some respect when they see him.

Thinking so in his heart, he asked his subordinates to count more carefully.

But then again, the advantage of these Dayu people is that they are hard-working, and the disadvantage is that they are too smart, and they must be cautious in managing them, otherwise it will be dangerous for them to develop.

It is precisely because they are so smart that he did not think about transporting some back to his home country to do coolies, if only the advantages are good, what a good labor force to transport back to his home country!

Boone looked at the smoke in the air in the distance, it's a pity!

Just kill or have to kill!

After this big wash, the remaining Dayu people have to work hard for more than ten years before they can stand up straight.

Their colony in Luzon had a period of stability for more than a decade!

Boone was thinking about it when the sound of artillery roared on the sea in the distance.

"Got on fire so soon? The Dutch dog is here this time, so stay and don't go! ”

As soon as the artillery rang out, some Xiyi people outside Manila who did not know the truth were startled.

Who is this attacking Luzon?

Those who were hunted down were shocked when they heard the cannon, and then they were excited, no matter which country's fleet came to attack Luzon, for the object of slaughter at this time, it was undoubtedly the most wanted situation.

They now want someone to destroy this group of scum who have lost their conscience!

Manila Bay.

On the main ship, through the observation of the telescope, Li Chengmu said: "Or was our fleet discovered by the Xiyi people, what should we do next?" Forced onto the island? ”

Feng Tu looked at the sparse cannon sound of the Xiyi people in the distance, and said with a smile: "Maybe the Xiyi people don't have many shells in their inventory anymore, plus our cannons are longer than theirs, we can completely ignore their bombardment!" Bomb their batteries first, and the coast will be no threat to us! ”

Li Chengmu thought that Xia Jing did the same last time and directly attacked the pirate island, so he smiled and nodded: "Just do as you say, the fleet is moving forward at full speed, and the target is to bombard the forts on the island!" ”

Next, there was no doubt that the fleet was moving at full speed, lined up beyond the range of the batteries on Luzon.

"Fifth Master, it's already within the range of our artillery!"

"Then everyone is free to play, aim at the target and fire!" Lee Seung-mu pointed directly at the fort in Manila.

After a round of shelling, the Xiyi people on the walls of Manila could not hold on, and some people ran to report to Boone.

All the treasures were moved into the warehouse, and Boone was checking the list, thinking of returning home and being knighted by the king.

I didn't want my subordinates to run in at this time: "Governor, Governor, it's terrible, it's terrible!" The enemy from the open sea has come in and has already bombarded both of our batteries! ”

"What?"

Boone was taken aback when he heard this, jumped up from his chair in an instant, and asked in disbelief, "Bombed our two batteries?" ”

The person who came nodded busily: "Yes, I have already bombed two before I came!" ”

Now that half an hour has passed, I don't know how many batteries have been bombed now?

Boone recovered from the shock just now, and immediately became furious: "You are all idiots! They bombarded two of our batteries, so how many ships did you bomb them? ”

The person who came shook his head: "None of them hit!" ”

When Boone heard this, he was furious: "You are all pigs! Four or five cannons can't hit a ship, what's the use of you? ”

When the sea ships come to bombard the land, the sea ships must be lined up, such a good target can't hit, and these soldiers are too wasteful!

The visitor felt wronged and defended: "Your Excellency, the guns of the incoming ships have a longer range than ours, so they can hit us, and we can do nothing about them, but we can only stare dryly!" ”

Boone wanted to explode in his heart, "When did the Dutch have such powerful artillery, why haven't I heard of it?" ”

"This" person is just a small soldier, where can he know the inside story?

Boone pushed away his men and strode out.

When he climbed the city wall and looked out at the dense sea ships on the sea, Boone gasped.

He slapped one of his subordinates with his backhand, pointed to the sea and asked angrily, "Why didn't you make it clear that there were so many ships coming?" ”

There are more than 200 ships, which is equivalent to all the sea ships in their country, and it is impossible for the Dutch, who are worse than their national conditions, to have so many ships!

What does this mean?

It means that it is not the Dutch fleet!

The attendant brought the binoculars, and Boone took the binoculars to observe for a while, then turned around angrily and slapped the man who had reported the news at the beginning.

"Idiot!"

"A fool who has not achieved enough things, but has more than enough failures!"

I just slapped my swollen cheek, and it's just symmetrical!

Looking at his swollen cheeks, Boone was not relieved of his hatred, and when he raised his leg, he kicked it over, and rolled down the steps of the city wall, life and death are unknown!

For a useless fool who is dead or dead, Boone doesn't pay much attention.

He drew his sword and pointed it straight at Manila Bay, "Give me a cannon and sink a ship, and I will reward you with a thousand taels of silver!" Sink two ships, get promoted to one level and reward two thousand taels of silver! ”

A round of shelling, the ship did not sink, just splashed a row of water, quite spectacular!

Boone's face turned red with anger, "Keep banging me!" I just don't believe it."

Before the words were finished, a cannonball fell next to it, and it exploded instantly!

If it hadn't been for the attendants next to him who threw him to the ground, he would have been injured this time if he didn't die.

Boone shook his head, his ears ringing, and to make matters worse, he only saw the other soldiers talking to him, but he couldn't hear them.

He covered his ears and rubbed them, but he still couldn't hear them.

"Are you alright, Lord Governor?"

"Lord Governor, Governor"

Boone fell straight down, causing his subordinates next to him to scream in fright.

"Boom Boom"

Another round of artillery bombarded the city walls, killing and wounding a large number of soldiers on the walls.

The Xiyi people who had escaped death were as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

"This can't be done, their artillery has a longer range than ours, we can't resist it, and we can't resist it before they attack the shore, let's flee quickly, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes, if you don't run away, there will be no chance to escape!"

"But. . . The Governor hasn't woken up yet! ”

"It's better if he doesn't wake up, let's run away with him, and when he wakes up and asks, we'll say that Luzon Island has been captured by the enemy!"

"However, the treasure collected by the Governor is still in the storehouse."

"This"

A soldier with an anxious temperament scolded: "My life is almost gone, why do you care about those dead things?" Run, I don't want to be caught as a miner! ”

Because he didn't care about it, he took dozens of people to the deck first.

Seeing this, the others had no choice but to follow the boat.

Five of the dozen or so soft sailboats on which Manila Bay relied on had their sails pulled up.

Li Dingguo pointed to the five sea ships with full sails and said, "The Xiyi people want to escape!" ”

By the way, five sailing ships had sailed out of the harbor and fled westward.

Feng Tu was anxious, "Fifth Master, let's send a boat to chase after you." ”

That's five sea ships, it's a pity to let them escape.

You must know that their fleet of sea ships is slowly accumulating through them bit by bit.

It takes a lot of manpower and material resources to build five seagoing ships.

Li Chengmu glanced at Long Yutian and said to Feng Tu with a smile: "Originally, Mr. has been nagging in front of me, and the poor Kou Mo is chasing, but today in this bay, you can pursue it, just don't sail out of this bay." ”

If you can't chase it in the bay, then when you enter the open sea, the sea is vast and want to catch up again is undoubtedly a fool's dream.

Feng Tu received the order, excitedly recruited soldiers to drive the boat and chased after the Xiyi people.

Li Chengmu looked at the several sea ships that left and asked Long Yutian: "Sir, do you think Feng Tu and they can catch up with Xiyi's ship?" ”

Long Yutian stroked his beard and shook his head with a smile: "The soft sailing ship of the Xiyi people is not in vain, Feng Tu led a few ships to catch up with the Xiyi people, it is difficult!" ”

Li Chengmu heard what he said and looked at him in surprise: "Since you can't catch up, why didn't Mr. stop it just now?" ”

"Haha." Long Yutian was very happy when he heard this, "The soldiers of our team lack experience in naval warfare, since they lack it, then let them really go to the sea to practice more, the pursuit battle between the enemy and us is also a very important battle in naval warfare, and it is harmless to chase a few more times, so you should accumulate experience!" ”

Li Chengmu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, "Mr. has good intentions, and the team will have the backbone with you." ”

"Hahaha!"

His words caused Long Yutian to laugh again.

The pursuit of the enemy was preempted by Feng Tu, Li Dingguo also wanted to make a contribution, he pointed to the twenty or so sea ships in the port and said: "There are ten soft sailing ships parked at the wharf, and there are many sea ships like us, I think these sea ships should be from the local indigenous family." ”

This time, Li Chengmu laughed happily, "Haha. We own these ships, and you send someone to see who is on board? Someone will get off the ship! ”

"There are so many things to gain from going out to sea, let's celebrate tonight!"

"Everything listens to the fifth master!" Long Yutian thought that after floating on the sea for so many days, he would have to eat a few bowls of green vegetables tonight.

The fleet docked at the dock, and the soldiers disembarked in an orderly manner, except for those who stayed behind, the others went to sweep the surrounding Xiyi people.

The local natives of Luzon were not surprised to see the Dayu people, and not many people came over to pull the relationship.

The happiest is the Dayu people in Luzon, their faces are full of joy, their own soldiers and horses are coming, then they are not afraid of being killed by the Xiyi people.

Some people ran out and were willing to lead the way for the soldiers, so as to prevent them from going the wrong way and being accidentally harmed by the Xiyi people.

Li Dingguo was taken to the Governor's Mansion by the local Dayu.

The Governor's Mansion gathered hundreds of Xiyi people who didn't have time to escape, and Dayu's soldiers and horses wanted to break in, and it took some effort.

The situation that Li Dingguo encountered here was promptly reported to the sea ship.

Long Yutian didn't have much patience for this kind of stubborn enemy, considering that the soldiers had been floating on the sea for a month, and they needed to rest physically and mentally, so he summoned his personal guards, "You go and spread a word, let Li Dingguo's kid not be anxious, the governor's food must be limited, temporarily besiege the people inside, and when they are too hungry to stand it, they will start before their side." ”

After a day of rest, the soldiers were full of food and drink, and their spirits were sufficient, Li Dingguo ordered people to bring in stainless steel cannons, "You bombard me against the gate and the wall, blow it up, and the people who resist inside will live or die!" ”

When this order was issued, the artillerymen had no scruples, as long as they aimed at the Governor's Palace, they could bomb as much as they wanted.

The local Dayu people are very excited, broken good, broken wonderful, they finally don't have to work too hard for a few taels of silver.

No longer have to be oppressed by the Xiyi people!

The gates of the Doge's Palace were incomparable to the gates of the city, and only a few cannons were used, and the walls and gates were gone.

The recalcitrant in the Doge's palace died, and those who were threatened to compromise were wounded.

Only those who really wanted to submit avoided the beating, but what awaited them next was the endless mining life of the mines.

The Governor's Mansion has been captured, and the residences of the other Xiyi people cannot be spared.

All of a sudden, the city of Manila was boiling, so lively.

In particular, a box of jewels and silver was found there, and the whole team cheered!

The treasures found in the surrounding Xiyi people's residences were collected together, and the amount was very considerable.

And the soldiers who searched the Governor's Palace, under great pressure, found a treasure in a secret room, which simply blinded their eyes!

The list was sent to Li Chengmu, he looked at it and said: "Looking at the handwriting of this list, it should have been written not long ago, and the Xiyi people sorted out the treasures, do they want to transport them away?" ”

Long Yutian nodded: "It's very likely, but I didn't expect us to appear in this sea area suddenly." It allowed us to take advantage of the loophole. ”

"Luck is also part of strength." Lee Seung-mu smiled, and the topic was over.

Just like there was no suspense yesterday, knowing that he couldn't catch up with the fleeing Xiyi people, he had to send Feng Tu to chase them.

It's just that Li Chengmu is curious about how these Western colonizers looted treasures?

Looking at the account books of the Xiyi people, these goods are all people's fat and people's ointment, looted.

This is the official who governs this island, and it is almost like a barbarian barbarian.

It's no wonder that the Dayu people call them Xiyi people!
