Inside the wooden fence, the Ming army and coolies continued to shoot bullets, throwing the attacking Indians into the trenches. The corpses of the Indians were almost piled up in the trenches, and countless corpses lay on the grasslands outside the trenches.

After a night of fierce fighting, the Ming army and the coolies who built the railroad finally repelled the Indian attack. After daybreak, reinforcements also arrived, and the 1st Cavalry Division of the American Army under Zheng Jing, which was about 5,000 men, arrived and drove away the Indians and Spaniards who were still besieging.

Although Zheng Jing's army is still the banner military uniform of the Ming army, its establishment no longer belongs to the establishment of the Ming army, but uses its own national establishment, and currently has seven divisions, including the first US cavalry division, the first heavy infantry division, the second infantry division, the third infantry division, the fourth heavy infantry division, the seventh light infantry division and the tenth mountain division.

It was also when fierce battles broke out at the railroad construction site around Fort Grizzly that Zheng Jing's army fought a large-scale fierce battle with the Spanish army in Jinhe City, which is in the area of Los Angeles on another plane.

Zheng Jing built a huge Chinese-style city in Jinhe City, the city is ten miles long from east to west, eight miles wide from north to south, the circumference of the city wall reaches thirty-six miles, on the city wall, every 100 meters also built a solid fortress, every 500 meters, build a hollow fortress. The eight gates of the city wall were built into a huge castle layout, with various buildings such as bastions, triangular forts, and forts.

In order to build this huge city, Zheng Jing used 100,000 Indian coolies and spent five years to repair this huge city.

The Spaniards were helpless in the face of this huge city, no matter how many troops they invested, not to mention that the city was still built by the sea, and was supported by the powerful fleet fire of the Ming army on the sea.

On the sea, a large Spanish fleet arrived from the southern sea, this Spanish fleet traveled thousands of miles to circumnavigate the entire South American continent, and sailed thousands of miles to come here, in order to expel the Ming fleet operating in the area of the California Peninsula.

"Look, there are not many ships in the fleet of the Ming people, very few, only a dozen ships." Moreno, commander of the Spanish fleet, put down his binoculars and said.

It is no secret that the Ming fleet did not have many ships in the Americas, and Moreno had heard about it more than a year ago, before he set off from the Gulf of Mexico on the east coast, from the Spanish and Indian armies attacking Golden River. But more than a year has passed, he has made a big circle around the American continent, and he has come all the way here, and the information from more than a year ago is still as effective as it is now.

"It seems that the efficiency of the people of the Ming Kingdom is very low, more than a year has passed, and they still only have a few boats." Sapatus beside him said.

Moreno said: "After all, this is not their home country, their main fleet is in the country and the South Seas, it is impossible to put too many ships here." Alright, we can attack! ”

Although this Spanish expeditionary fleet did not have first-class battleships, it had fifteen Lightning-class second-class battleships, more than eighty third-class battleships of the Pelayu-class, more than 100 fourth-class cruisers of the Hell class, and more than 100 fifth-class cruisers of the Marvel class, which was already the most powerful expeditionary fleet that the Spaniards could handle.

The Spanish fleet, which had more than 300 warships of various types, naturally burst with confidence when it met the Ming fleet, which had only more than a dozen ships on the opposite side, and wanted to eat the Ming fleet in one bite.

"It's really strange, the ship of the Ming army on the other side is really too big! But for such a large ship, with very few guns on both sides, as if there were only twenty guns on one side, and there were no sails, could it be fully steam-powered? Also, their shells are also very strange in color, they are gray and look like the color of iron. Zapatus said puzzled.

The steam engine is no longer surprising, the Europeans have copied it, and steamships and trains have been born. As for covering the battleship with ironclad, this is not surprising, since the last time the Ming Dynasty attacked Manila and stormed the Manila battery with ironclad ships, Manila's battery guns could not blast the ironclad of the ironclad ship, and later the Europeans also learned to be smart, and they also covered the outside of the sail battleship with a layer of ironclad.

It was precisely because the sail battleships were covered with ironclad that the speed of the voyage was reduced, so from the Gulf of Mexico on the Atlantic coast to the California Peninsula on the Pacific coast, the fleet crawled like a snail crawling, crawling for more than a year. Fortunately, the canned food invented by Wang Yu has become the most popular food in the European navy, and with canned food, they no longer have to eat the rotten and smelly saltwater beef and moldy ham.

"They also have four turrets on deck, which is very strange, those cannons look very large, but unfortunately there are too few of them, if they have more of them, we really can't deal with them." Moreno said something strange.

"It would be nice if we could capture their big ship, such a big steamship, we can capture it, at least more than two hundred cannons can be installed on it!" Zapatus said.

Just as they were talking, they saw the large warships of the Ming army in front of them put down small boats one after another, and after those small boats landed in the sea, they did not rush out, but hid behind the big ships.

"A boat? They have so many small boats? Could it be an arson ship? Or a pole mineboat? Moreno asked, puzzled.

The Spaniards also knew that the Pole Mineboat, the kind of small boat that was tantamount to a suicidal attack, was so powerful that it posed a serious threat to the huge battleships. But the Spanish fleet had so many ships, and a large number of fourth- and fifth-class cruisers, that with those medium-sized warships, it was completely possible to blow up the pole mineboats in the middle of the way.

There were still three kilometers between the two sides, and the Ming warships on the opposite side had already begun to spit out tongues of fire.

"Boom, boom, boom" a column of water rose on the surface of the sea.

"The level of the Ming people in naval warfare is not good, so they can fire so far away, how many hits can they have?" Moreno, the commander of the Spanish fleet, still stayed in the thinking of front-loading smoothbore guns, front-loading smoothbore guns, and the distance between the two naval guns was within 500 meters to 300 meters, and if it was farther, there would be no accuracy. Only at close range, a concentrated fire blast on one side can inflict heavy damage on a ship.

But the Ming army opened fire so far away, obviously the level is not good.

Before he finished speaking, Moreno heard a violent explosion, and he saw with his own eyes that in his fleet, a huge fireball rose from a fifth-class cruiser, and a column of water rose on the side of the four-hundred-ton cruiser, and the planks on the fifth-class cruiser shattered one after another, and immediately sunken in the middle, and the sails were on fire.

"Boom" was another loud bang, and a column of rushing water rose from the bow of a fourth-class cruiser of more than 500 tons, and the entire bow of the ship disappeared in the sound of the explosion, turning into pieces of wood flying into the sky and falling into the water again, and the fourth-class cruiser began to sink in the raging flames.

The cannon rumbled, more than a dozen battleships of the Ming army spit out tongues of fire in turn, shells of various calibers smashed over, and the Spanish fourth-class ships and fifth-class ships that were hit by the bullets, these small and medium-sized battleships were too small in tonnage after all, and they were not covered with armor, and they were basically killed by the Ming army in one shot!

"Why are the shells of the Ming people so powerful?" Moreno was already completely stupefied.
