After Li Fade led more than 300 marines to land, they started running towards Cavite under the leadership of several former Spanish Ming servants.

According to his expectations, the Marines could arrive at a place seven or eight miles away in less than an hour. Maybe they could rest for a while near the Cavite fort, eat something, and launch an attack on the enemy calmly.

However, after entering the dense forest, Li Fade suddenly went crazy. There were no roads in the forest, and they were full of poisonous insects, snakes and ants. Within three miles of walking, five soldiers were bitten by snakes and insects. Before they had gone very far, they saw something on the road.

No more.

For this reason, Li Fade had to slow down and send out his leading soldiers in turns, using long wooden poles to drive away snakes and insects, while using long knives to chop bushes and weeds to open up a marching path. In one hour, the march was less than three miles. It was almost evening.

Yes, they are still four or five miles away from Cavite.

"Empty everything in the backpack!" Li Fade ordered.

Many Marines were half puzzled and half reluctant to give up. In the backpacks behind them were the captures of Zamboanga and the Holy Name of Jesus City. The soldiers secretly captured the items, hoping to take them back to Hanzhou and save some belongings for their families.

"Everyone, empty all the things in your backpacks!" Li Fade ordered again: "Cover your head and face with your backpack and move forward at full speed."

He poured out the contents of his backpack, cut it in half with a knife, wrapped all his exposed head, face, hands and feet, and marched quickly through the forest.

A dozen officers took the lead and poured the contents of their backpacks onto the ground and began to cut the backpacks with knives.

The remaining soldiers hesitated for a while and then poured out the contents of their backpacks behind them.

"How about digging a hole and burying it, so that we can dig it out when we come here again one day." An officer suggested.

"..." Li Fade wanted to refuse, but when he saw the expectant eyes of the soldiers, he waved his hand, indicating that they would handle it immediately.

In fact, they were in a dense forest and had no reference at all when walking through it. They had no idea where they were. Even if they dug a hole and buried it, they might not be able to find it later. However, they must always leave some thoughts for the soldiers.

More than 300 marines wrapped all exposed body parts tightly, and after deciding a direction, they quickly walked through the forest and rushed to Cavite.

Driving in the forest is absolutely different from grassland and plain areas. Thick tree trunks, entangled vines, and snakes and insects falling and escaping from time to time all trouble the Marine Corps soldiers.

The thin military uniform could not protect against the bites of snakes and insects. There was a dull pain. After a while, the bitten part of the body began to feel numb and itchy, and then the limbs began to twitch. The effect of the snake venom began to take effect. Within a few hundred meters, I couldn't walk.

Then he will fall softly in the jungle.

Li Fade gritted his teeth and began to announce that after the death of the officers at all levels, they would take over the commanders in order. In this cruel jungle, whether you are an officer or a soldier, the threat of death is the same.

After traveling for more than an hour, the trees gradually became sparse, and everyone's spirits were shaken. They were almost at the edge of the forest and were about to walk out of the dense forest.

Sure enough, in less than twenty minutes, the Marines' eyes suddenly lit up. In front of them was a meadow, then farmland. At the end of the sight, a fortress stood.

"Repair for a quarter of an hour! Organize weapons and equipment!" Li Fade ordered breathlessly.

After an inspection, more than 300 Marines were reduced by more than 30, or 10% of the troops were lost! Li Fade was heartbroken. He had never attacked the enemy as many times as he had lost this time.

Looking at the frightened Marines, Li Fade said nothing, waved his hand forward, and trotted towards the Cavite Castle.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Just as they were about to pass through a large field of farmland outside the city, the roar of several artillery guns came from the pier.

"Quick! Quick! Quick! Forward at full speed!" Li Fade urged the team to launch the final sprint towards the castle in front.

-----------------------

On a hidden coast outside Cavite Port, six warships of the Chinese-Dutch Allied Forces were docked here, anxiously waiting for the signal from the pier.

Cao Xiong was very nervous. According to the prior agreement, if Niuhu failed to successfully capture the dock fort, the coalition forces would put down all the land forces here and prepare to storm the Spanish docks and fortresses at night. As we all know, landing at night means too many uncertainties.

The ship will be stranded, the soldiers will fall into the water, and they will lose their way. Even when they are close to the enemy, they will be ambushed and attacked, and the losses may be huge.

But Cao Xiong and Major Duckman Barek, the interim Dutch commander, were like two gamblers at a gambling table. They had put all their chips on the table, just hoping to win a big one.

"Xiao Shuan, do you think Niuhu and the others can occupy the dock?" Cao Xiong asked.

Cao Xiaoshuan raised his head and looked at the direction of the Cavite port, and then said firmly: "Captain Niu and the others will definitely control the dock and disarm the fort. We can also attack the shipbuilding yard and kidnap all the shipwrights."

Cao Xiong looked at Cao Xiaoshuan intently, then smiled after a while.

"Haha...boy, your other abilities are ordinary, but your calm demeanor in the face of all kinds of things can be learned from your chief manager!"

"I..., I think our Hanzhou Marines can definitely defeat the Spaniards!" Cao Xiaoshuan blushed a little when Cao Xiong said this.

"I also believe in Niuhu and the men of the Marine Corps. But I worry about them. After all, one of them needs to go through the dense forest and quickly arrive near the Spanish castle to launch an attack, and the other needs to raid the enemy's fort and castle, all armed with cold weapons. Han

Zhouerlang, it’s hard to get this!” Cao Xiong looked towards the port of Cavite again.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Several gunshots were heard from the Cavite port in the distance.

"Raise the sails and attack!" Cao Xiong looked at the place where the cannon fire was heard. He was first frightened and then ordered loudly.

In the Dutch fleet not far away, Major Duckman Barek was shocked when he heard the sound of cannons coming from the dock, "Did the Hanzhou Army succeed?"

"..." Several Dutch naval officers waited quietly for a while, and there was no sound of gunfire in the distance. "It should be successful!"

"Attack!" Major Duckman Barek shouted excitedly. Destroying the Spanish shipbuilding yard was equivalent to directly cutting off their subsequent blood supply. Then the Spanish had to fight the Dutch if they wanted to.

Dispatch warships from distant South America to the Far East. In this way, the Spanish will be suppressed by the Dutch naval fleet, at least in a short period of time, and their strength will not be restored.

Get promoted and make a fortune today!

————————————

Tan Zhongfu saw the Spanish musketeers retreating back, and then more Luzon native servants rushed over. He looked back and saw his teammates, almost everyone was surrounded by three or four natives.

Damn his ancestors, every time he kills now he will earn a profit! Holding the short knife, he rushed towards a native behind him, hugged his head, pulled hard on his neck with the knife, and then pushed him away

This native.

Tan Zhongfu saw their deputy captain Zhang Nianchun rolling on the ground to avoid the spear stabs of several natives. He shouted loudly, slammed his shoulder into the back of a native, and threw him to the ground. His body followed.

At the same time as he fell, the short knife in his hand slashed the back of another native who was arching his back.

When Zhang Nianchun saw a teammate coming to the rescue, he rolled onto his side and stood up from the ground. Then, he stretched out his hand to pull up his teammate who was lying on the ground.

Zhang Nianchun and Tan Zhongfu were back to back, looking at the natives in front of them, holding spears and surrounding them, looking for opportunities to stab them.

"Damn it, I have to explain this here today!" Zhang Nianchun vomited a mouthful of blood, his left hand hung weakly, and his right hand held the short knife tightly, thinking about how he would die with the natives later.

Although Tan Zhongfu looked covered in blood and his face was stained with blood, miraculously, there were no wounds on his body, he was just a little exhausted.

"Captain, our platoon leader is dead!" Tan Zhongfu said softly.

"Haha..." Zhang Nianchun laughed, "Later, we will also drag these natives to die together."

Tan Zhongfu felt secretly in his heart. It was a pity that he hadn't hugged his daughter a few times at home.

The surrounding natives were slowly approaching with spears in hand, preparing to kill these two terrible enemies together.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!..." A row of muskets rang out, and seven or eight of the natives gathered near the city gate fell immediately.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!..." Another row of muskets rang out, and another six or seven natives near the city gate fell down. The natives immediately realized that this was the enemy's volley of muskets. Chaos immediately broke out.

The swarm ran towards the city.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!..." By the time the gunfire was fired for the third time, all the natives near the city gate had fled.

"Captain, we don't have to die." Tan Zhongfu felt relieved and sat softly on the ground. Zhang Nianchun behind him was exhausted and fainted.

Li Fade followed the marine soldiers into the city, quickly divided the team into three groups, occupied the city wall, guarded the city gate, and pursued the enemy.

Dozens of corpses were piled near the city gate. They were dressed in Ming Dynasty, looked like natives, and were Spaniards, entangled with each other and lying on top of each other.

Looking at the tragic battlefield and the numerous corpses of Marines, Li Fade was filled with anger and ordered a few soldiers to quickly collect the injured and dead brothers and give them simple treatment.

More than fifty marines led by Ren Daquan also rushed to the city gate and quickly rushed into the city.

Major Carvalho Lopez and a group of Spanish musketeers were surrounded by the retreating native servants and continued to retreat into the city. On the way, he tried to organize his team several times to block, but was defeated by the crazy Marines.

The soldiers were quickly defeated.

Finally, Major Carvalho Lopez fled into a stone warehouse with more than 30 musketeers and more than 50 native servants, relying on the solid outer wall to mount a desperate resistance. The Marines attacked several times,

They were all beaten back and surrounded them inside.
Chapter completed!
