The movement in Manila Bay undoubtedly alarmed the Spanish Governor of Luzon inside the Manila Castle.

"God, what's going on, what's going on, so that there will be such a dense cannon sound coming from the direction of the bay, who can tell me!" The governor of Luzon in Spain roared angrily.

A short time later, a Spanish soldier rushed into the governor's palace to report. "Report to the Governor, the Ming fleet has suddenly appeared, and it has sunk fourteen warships in the bay and is bombarding the merchant ships in the bay!"

"What!" Hearing the news, the Governor of Luzon of Spain instantly widened his eyes in disbelief.

He thought that it might be the Dutch, or the British, who attacked them, but he never thought that it would be the fleet of the Ming Dynasty.

"Nope! The Ming is hateful, this is the most serious provocation of the Ming to our Spanish Empire, it is unforgivable, and they will inevitably pay a heavy price for it! The Spanish governor of Luzon roared.

In the past few days, he was still thinking about sending an envoy to negotiate with the Ming to redeem Viscount Larsi and three thousand Spanish soldiers, but the Ming fleet actually fought first, and without warning and started a war with their Spanish Empire's fleet, not only sinking their fourteen warships of the Spanish Empire, but also slaughtering those merchant ships that had no ability to resist!

"Report to the Governor-General, the Ming army landed in Laoag, has been "a disaster, with another Spanish soldier running into the governor's palace, there is a Ming army in Laoag landing, Laoag has fallen, the Ming army is going all the way south, the news of killing Manila has also come.

Thousands of miles away, the East China Sea Fleet came from the sea, and the Spaniards of Laoag came from land, and generally speaking, the sea route was always faster than the land route, so that the Spanish soldiers sent by Laoag used up the fastest speed, and they were still not faster than the East China Sea Fleet.

The Spanish governor of Luzon was shocked that the Ming army attacked from both land and sea.

On the sea, the Ming fleet had sunk all the imperial warships, and on land, the Ming army had also captured the castle of Laoag and was attacking all the way south to Manila.

"This is definitely not a sudden attack, Da Ming must have planned it a long time ago!" The governor of Luzon in Spain suddenly gritted his teeth and said.

"No wonder the Ming will expel the envoys I sent, unwilling to let me redeem the Marquis of Larsi and the three thousand Spanish Imperial soldiers, the Ming has been trying to invade my Luzon Island!" The more the Spanish governor of Luzon spoke, the angrier he became.

The governor of Luzon in Spain never believed that this was a sudden decision of the Ming Dynasty, otherwise it would never have been possible to launch an attack so quickly.

Immediately afterwards, the Spanish governor of Luzon learned how many Ming troops had landed and what the specific situation was.

When it was learned that the Ming army was not only as many as 20,000, but also an army of firearms, and firearms might be more advanced than their Spanish Empire, the Spanish governor of Luzon was angry, but also full of shock, full of impossibility, although the Ming had defeated the Dutch twice, but from the understanding, the Ming did not use flintlock pistols in time, and at that time, the flintlock pistols in Europe had also begun to be popularized in the army, and it was difficult to just a few years, the weapons of the Ming army were more advanced, which made him believe.

The artillery fire in the direction of Manila Bay continued, and after about a stick of incense, the artillery fire finally began to slowly subside, which also meant that the battle was over.

Thinking of the possible outcome, the governor of Luzon of Spain couldn't help but tremble.

After a while, another Spanish soldier came to report.

"Report to the Governor's army, all the ships in the bay have been sunk by the Ming fleet!"

Sure enough, the Ming fleet really did it, and it was done, they slaughtered the merchant ships that had no resistance!

At this moment, the governor of Luzon in Spain finally couldn't control it and punched the desk in the office hard.

"Damn! Damn it! These damned invaders, they want to encroach on the territory of my Spanish Empire, they will not succeed, I swear, they will not succeed! "The Spanish governor of Luzon was furious, really angry, his face was hideous, and he roared loudly.

However, the Spanish governor of Luzon forgot that Luzon was not them in the first place, and that they occupied this place after slaughtering a large number of indigenous people on Luzon, and even if the Ming were the so-called invaders, they would not be much better.

Manila Bay is littered with the corpses of Spanish merchants and the splinters of wood left behind by the sinking of a large number of ships, and the entire bay seems to be stained red with blood.

"My lord, Manila City seems to be not far from the coast, shall we do a few shots?" On the flagship, a naval general asked Shen Jingchao.

Although Manila City is not built by the sea, it is less than two kilometers away from the sea, and the range of the battleships of the East China Sea Fleet reaches three thousand meters, which is completely capable of covering half of the Manila Castle.

"No, what if we blow up Manila and the Spaniards run away, and destroy Yan Yingyuan's strategy at will, that guy can't strangle me!" Shen Jingchao stopped and smiled.

Since Yan Yingyuan already had a strategy and was ready to attract the Spaniards in Manila to annihilate the Spaniards on Luzon, there was no need for his East China Sea Fleet to sabotage Yan Yingyuan's plan in one fell swoop.

Hearing Shen Jingchao say this, the general of the East China Sea Fleet nodded and said no more.

"Order, leave five battleships to continue to blockade the sea of Manila, and the remaining battleships will return to the division!" Shen Jingchao immediately ordered.

The East China Sea Fleet left Manila Bay and headed for the open sea.

Although the East China Sea Fleet did not take the opportunity to shell Manila, the Spanish governor of Luzon in Manila was not having a good time, and Yan Yingyuan and other 20,000 Ming troops were constantly approaching on land, and they were only three or four days away from Manila, and their goal was very clear, that is, to attack Manila.

The Ming army was outnumbered, and all of them used firearms, and the pressure on the Spanish governor of Luzon was enormous.

"Damn, the Ming must pay the price, Manila is their grave!" The governor of Luzon of Spain gritted his teeth.

Eventually, the Spanish governor of Luzon ordered: "Order all the soldiers to gather in Manila, where I will let the Ming army bleed, and God bless me to defeat the enemy all!" ”

After the Spanish governor of Luzon gave the order, he also raised his head and shouted to the sky.

Regardless of whether the Spanish governor of Luzon saw anything, the warships and fleet had been destroyed, they could not escape from Luzon, and the Spanish governor of Luzon did not intend to escape, in his heart, the great Spanish empire should be invincible and could defeat all enemies, and the 20,000 Ming army was not a problem.

As the orders of the Spanish governor of Luzon passed down, all the Spanish soldiers from the castles on the island of Luzon began to converge on Manila.

The news reached the ears of Yan Yingyuan, who was approaching Manila.

Yan Yingyuan smiled faintly, the Spanish governor of Luzon really won the plan.

In order to allow all the Spaniards to gather in Manila, Yan Yingyuan also ordered the Ming army under his command to slow down the march and give the Spaniards two more days, once the Spaniards have all gathered, it is the moment when they should come to the city to fight a decisive battle.
