Chapter 470: Here They Come
The sound of gunfire in the city also plunged the royal city into endless chaos. Xiao Hanguang and all the members and members of the Standing Committee of the Luzon Management Committee rushed to the Management Committee in a hurry. Everyone is an expert in civil affairs and economics, but when they encounter such an urgent situation, they all panic.
Xiao Hanguang led a group of people to the gate of the royal city and found that it had been blocked. One of the platoon commanders guarding the place stretched out his hand and stopped them.
"Chiefs, there is fighting in the city right now, and in order to ensure the safety of the chiefs, the royal city is now under martial law."
Before Xiao Hanguang could speak, the face of one of the Standing Committee members behind him darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "What about your battalion commander?" ”
"Who's looking for me?" At this time, Li Fang came over from a distance.
"Now the situation in the urban area of Manila is so critical, why don't you go to the urban area to support, what are you doing here."
"You let us out, if you don't go, we can always go."
"We have the right to go out of the city, why don't you let us go out of the city, are you under house arrest?"
A group of people are clamoring here, which makes Li Fang angry. He was born as a non-commissioned officer, and after retiring, he didn't mix well in the local area, just because of his short temper.
"If it weren't for us taking over the defense of the royal city, what would the royal city be like today? We have just routed more than a thousand armed men here with weapons, and I admire you for allowing so many weapons to flow into the city. Now that the troops in the garrison area are clearing out the remnants of the enemy in the urban area, what else can you do when you go out of the city except to add to the chaos? I'm carrying out the commander's orders, and if you want to go out of the city and talk to the commander, don't talk nonsense with me. ”
After Li Fang finished speaking, he turned around and left, choking the group of people in the Luzon Management Committee, and they all pointed at Li Fang's back and scolded him.
Liang Yujie casually took out the walkie-talkie. shouted: "Ye Changsheng, you immediately order Li Fang to open the gate of the royal city. ”
Ye Changsheng was busy at the garrison headquarters, when suddenly Liang Yujie's shout came from the walkie-talkie, which made him angry. But at this time, he could only suppress the fire and said patiently: "The militants in the city have been repelled by us, and the city is currently chaotic. Many of the remaining militants are scattered all over the city, so for your safety, don't leave the city. ”
"I don't care, we have to go out of the city, what right do you have to control our personal freedom."
Ye Changsheng was completely speechless, he didn't want to talk to this woman. She's more of a gas now, what's the point of arguing about this at this time.
"I am the commander of the Luzon garrison, and it is my duty to defend Manila. Well, what do you have to say. I can report to the board of directors of the company that I still have to command the battle, and I don't have time to argue with you about your rights. ”
After he finished speaking, he turned off the walkie-talkie, turning Liang Yujie's face white. She said angrily: "Warlord! ”
Xiao Hanguang smiled bitterly and shook his head, how could he still look like the director of the management committee now. He secretly blamed himself for paying too much attention to the unity of the team, and many times he was more indulgent than ignoring organization and discipline.
On the sea at the entrance to Manila Bay. Several junk ships of the guerrilla fleet were cruising back and forth on the sea. They were Fang Lianshu, commander of the South Ocean Fleet, who was specially transferred to carry out a guard duty near the entrance to Manila Bay. The ship is equipped with a military radio to communicate with the Manila military port at any time.
Several boats had just received orders from unidentified militants to attack the city of Manila, telling them to keep a close watch on the entrance to Manila Bay. The entrance to Manila Bay was nearly twenty kilometers wide, and several of their ships were all scattered. Constant back and forth on the surface of the sea.
Each ship was accompanied by a Far Eastern Army soldier with a night vision binocular. One of the warriors rubbed his sour eyes, he and the other had been drifting at sea for almost a night, and although the two took turns watching, he also felt very tired.
Suddenly, the warrior passed through the guò night vision binoculars. He found a gray thing faintly appearing in the distance, he was not sure what it was, put down the binoculars and rubbed his eyes fiercely, then picked up the binoculars and looked at them carefully.
This time he saw clearly, it was a sail, he was taken aback, just wanted to wake up the communication soldier who was dozing next to him, but a sail slowly appeared in the telescope, densely packed with a large piece, dozens of sails slowly appeared in his eyes.
He hurriedly put down the binoculars, kicked the communicator next to him, and shouted: "There are ships outside, they are going to enter Manila Bay, hurry up and report to the headquarters." ”
His shouts also startled the pirates on board, and they hurriedly steered the sailboat to turn around and sail towards Manila Harbor.
Fell stood on the deck of the sailboat, and a group of whiteskins with binoculars looked at the dark night in the distance. Suddenly, three points of light suddenly lit up in the dark night, getting bigger and bigger, and finally slowly getting bigger and brighter, which looked particularly dazzling in the dark night.
This is Corregido Island, which is the entrance to Manila Bay, which is their inner part of Manila, and when they saw the lights of a sailing ship on the sea, they lit three bonfires prepared in advance to guide the combined fleet into Manila Bay.
The commander of the Combined Fleet, Cressie, immediately gave the order to enter Manila Bay. He turned his head to Fell next to him and said excitedly: "Sir, so far, the action is one qiē shun lì." It seems that the Far East has not yet reacted, and if nothing else, Manila is our Dutch East India Company. ”
Fell was also very excited, the East India Company had been preparing for this operation for three years, and the amount of money spent during that time could be described as astronomical, and today it was finally time to reap the fruits of victory. He had the privilege of being a witness to this historic moment, and his name will go down in history.
At this time, several ships patrolling the entrance to Manila Bay all saw a large number of sail shadows at the entrance of the overseas sea, densely packed with hundreds, and the officers and soldiers of the Far East and pirates on board were stunned. They hurriedly turned the bow of the ship and sailed in the direction of the military port, and also reported the situation here to the Luzon Garrison Command.
At the Luzon garrison command, the gendarmerie company escorted back more than 200 prisoners and interrogated them separately. Ye Changsheng is also anxiously waiting for the results of the interrogation, and now Manila has been passively accepting the moves, and he doesn't even know who the opponent is.
At this time, the chief of staff, Lin Song, walked in, and he said with a solemn face: "Through the identification of the prisoners, we have captured the head of the Dutch Merchant House, Worm. And he was suddenly interrogated, and the situation was very serious......"
Lin Song reported the results of the interrogation to Ye Changsheng as it was, and then said with a wry smile: "Commander, the matter is big. After our interrogation of the other people of the Dutch Merchant House, the accuracy of the information was also proven. Let's send a report to the company, I guess they're coming soon. ”
Suddenly, a communications soldier suddenly turned around and shouted: "Commander, the maritime guard force has found a large number of unidentified ships, more than a hundred according to visual inspection. (To be continued......)
