Chapter 1238 The War Begins

Chapter 1238 The war begins

When the Han people lost their cowardice and became organized, the energy they unleashed was enough to change the world.

During the long night, the brutal killing continued.

It is impossible to count how many people died in this horrific massacre.

Anyway, the whole of Luzon was trembling.

There are 783 people in the Third Brigade of Special Forces, and each one of them is the most powerful war machine in the world.

Although their numbers were small, as fierce tigers leading the Han people, they still achieved unparalleled results.

As the most powerful tribe in Luzon, the Kakun tribe suffered a disaster in the dark night.

At dawn, the entire tribe had been razed to the ground, and no one alive could be found.

All the Han people were covered in plasma, and the weapons in their hands were already full of gaps and could no longer be used.

But they eliminated their old enemy and gained the initiative in the entire situation.

At the same time, Chen Jiujiu also led his men to massacre more than half of the natives in the city.

The natives who were lucky enough to survive were completely frightened and fled out of the city overnight and hid in the dense forest.

Apparently they would never dare to come out again in a short time.

Asura Torres was lying on the city wall, looking at everything outside the city, his whole body trembling.

Is this still the Han Chinese he knows?

What happened?

Will the same misfortune befall the Spaniards?

No one can give him the answer.

Diego Franco stood aside, having long since lost his military courage.

Now he is only worried about whether the castle under his feet can block the Han people's attack?

Through the telescope, he had seen thousands of Han Chinese gathered in the distance, pointing towards the castle.

Those Han people not only had swords and shields in their hands, but they even had muskets.

If the Spanish troops in the city dare to go out, they may not end well.

"Mr. Governor, the only thing we can do now is to hold the castle and wait for the day when the Han people are tired. Don't even think about going out to attack. We don't have the power."

Diego Franco gives a serious warning to Asuro Torres.

"If we do nothing, wouldn't we be handing over Luzon to others? There is no way to explain this to His Majesty the King."

Captain Peake was furious and offered the opposite opinion.

He did not think that the cowardly Han people were opponents of the Spaniards.

As long as the brave Spanish warriors go out to fight in the city, they will surely be able to calm down the trouble.

Diego Franco was so angry that he started to curse and spit.

"Damn bastard, didn't you see the muskets in the hands of those Han people? Use your egg-sized brain to think about where those Han people's muskets came from? Do you want to ruin everyone's lives?"

Captain Peake refused to give an inch and sneered.

"When did the brave Royal Spanish soldiers fear the barbarians? Back in Mexico, a hundred Spanish soldiers dared to fight a hundred thousand natives and won. But you are just cowards!"

The expressions on other people's faces became extremely ugly.

Such ridicule is really hurtful.

How can the situation in America be compared with Luzon?

The gap between the ignorant, ignorant and backward indigenous people there and the Han people is so great that they are simply incomparable.

In the entire castle, Captain Peake was the only one who kept roaring and shouting to go out to fight.

For the rest, no one agreed at all.

"This is a bluff by the Han people. I have seen through their cards. Please believe me, Spain cannot lose Luzon. Victory must belong to us."

Captain Peake's roar continued, but he received no response.

Just when he was about to exert more force, the loud and anxious bell interrupted everything.

Everyone knows that once the big bell in the castle is rung, it means that a powerful enemy is attacking.

Everyone turned to look.

I saw that the entrance of Manila Bay was already under heavy gunfire, and it was a mess.

As a natural harbor, Manila Bay certainly has a narrow entrance, which can be said to be easy to defend but difficult to attack.

The Spaniards deployed firepower on both sides of the bay entrance and on the small islands in the middle of the river.

Now fighting is taking place in these places.

But after watching the battle, all the Spaniards in the castle felt deep despair.

On the vast open sea, several strong and tall Galenic warships were firing continuously at various Spanish defenses.

The distance between them was so far that the Spanish artillery could not hit them at all.

However, the artillery on those Galen warships could accurately hit the fortifications, causing heavy losses to the Spaniards.

Fortunately, solid artillery shells do not have much damage capability, and strong fortifications can withstand it.

But this situation of being beaten without being able to fight back is just like the current situation of the Spaniards.

"It's Xia's warship, we are surrounded."

Diego Franco regarded Zheng Zhilong's troops as the regular Xia Navy.

But what he said is not wrong.

Now the land outside the castle is besieged by the Luzon Han people, and the sea is blocked by Zheng Zhilong.

The Spaniards had no choice but to be trapped in the isolated city.

Just when the Han people in Luzon were encouraged to fight bravely, the large-scale Xia expeditionary force was also dispatched.

"I am going to conquer Luzon, eliminate powerful enemies, expand territory, and make new achievements for China. I am here and wish you success and invincibility."

In the port, Zuo Menggeng and Wang Siyi personally bid farewell to the expeditionary army.

All the soldiers saluted King Xia and the princess as they left.

They are confident that they will win this battle.

At the same time, in the port of Batavia, seven Dutch warships and 600 carefully selected marines also embarked on the journey.

The war between the Xia Kingdom and the Netherlands to kill the Spanish officially began.

Anthony van Diemen and Putmans had a solid plan.

Their first goal is to sweep across Borneo.

Although the Dutch had established a foothold in Borneo many years ago, this place is where the influence of the Netherlands and Spain intersect.

The local indigenous people have always been at both ends of the spectrum and have both sides.

Anthony van Diemen and Putmans discussed privately, and both felt that it was not appropriate to rob Luzon from the Xia Kingdom, so as not to damage the alliance.

With the power of the Netherlands, controlling the vicinity of Borneo is enough to digest it for many years.

As for Luzon, just give it to Xia State completely.

On the Xia Kingdom side, Zuo Hua and Gu Erzhong didn't know the goodwill of the Dutch.

"The territory is yours only if you seize it. Therefore, I decided not to attack Manila first, but to quickly go south to seize this place and not give the Dutch a chance to advance eastward."

Zuo Hua was ambitious and pointed at a place on the map.

Look at Gu Erzhong.

That's Mindanao.
