Chapter 1047: Die with Him

readx;

If you rush through, you will have a way to live, and if you rush through, you will have wealth and food. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe natives on both sides think so, the one in front of him is no longer a compatriot, no longer a neighbor, no longer a relative, he blocks the way of his life, that is, the enemy.

The intensity of this battle is probably the fiercest since the beginning of the war in the era of ignorance, and the casualties are extremely heavy.

Bamboo poles of length and thickness are sharpened at the tip and then roasted over the fire, and if you are particular about it, they are also stained in dung, which is a big advantage in such a fight.

There are no complicated tactics and techniques, the bamboo pole is always longer than the machete over there, and the roasted bamboo pole is tough, the kind of machete that is not very sharp cannot be cut at all, even if it is cut by a quick master, it is still an inclined plane.

This was the trick that Qi Jiguang used to deal with the Japanese invaders back then, and when it was used on the natives, it was really a ...... that Mingzhu secretly cast. Now it has snowed in Songjiang Province, but in this Luzon, the natives are still wearing single clothes, and this is still the Han people who appeared and provided them with textiles, and they were all shirtless at this time in the past.

The bamboo pole pierced into the human body without hindrance, blood splattered, screams and howls came out at the same time, almost unilaterally, and the natives driven by the Han people immediately gained the upper hand as soon as they came into contact.

The natives who had come from the Spaniard's fortress were frightened by the sudden tragic casualties, and the men in the first and second rows were stabbed to death, and the people behind them turned around and ran.

But there are too many people pouring over, and the people behind don't know the tragic situation in front, they just know that if they turn back now, not only will the property fly, but the Spaniards will also be ruthless.

Can't go back, since I'm going to rush up, why should you go back, at this time, everyone is red-eyed, no matter what kind of relationship this person had with him yesterday, he just waved a knife and slashed it.

After retreating slightly, the people on the other side also shouted and poured up, the natives just got the sharpened bamboo pole, and they were not very skilled in using it, after the first assassination, they saw that the other party used, once they did not stab the target, they were afraid that the other party would approach, and the bamboo pole in their hands often became a whip.

What can the bamboo pole be killed, endure the pain for a while, and you can get to the opponent's body, and that is when the machete has the advantage.

This kind of blade is not very sharp machete, the blade is stained with too much dirt, it looks not only painful, but also causes such and such trouble to the wound, the distance just advanced, was immediately taken back by the other party, but such a gain is also short-lived, because the bamboo pole in front can't be used, but the back can be assassinated.

Blood splashed, screams again and again, the two sides on the surface of contact, you advance and retreat, began to see-saw, such a cruel tug-of-war most tortured the will and spirit of the combatants, for these lazy natives, it is even more torture.

Soon after the battle began, some natives fled in all directions, and the residential area of Manila's North Harbor was not so much a town as a village, with chaotic streets, but it was easy to escape. However, the team led by Wang Tong has already blocked all directions, and there is only one way to escape, and further away, the Han people are demolishing one house after another, and the places where the natives live are mostly grass huts and the like, and it is very simple to gather the newly moved Han people.

Moreover, after all, there are some belongings in these houses, which is somewhat a subsidy for those Han people who have been coerced, and it can also stimulate them to work harder.

There are also indigenous chiefs and nobles and the like, their mansions are somewhat similar, but since they don't run, then Wang Tong's subordinates went to attack the fortifications, and they were defeated faster.

Now the Han people are like fishing and collecting nets, and the natives are the fish in the nets, and there seems to be a lot of space to move around at this time, but in fact, the space is getting smaller and smaller.

Seeing that the people who couldn't run, or even ran fast, were intercepted and killed by the Han Chinese, they could only turn back, and reluctantly participated in the fighting, at first the two sides were just facing each other, and later, because the escaped people came back, they joined the battlefield from all directions.

After all, the Spaniards drove more natives into the country, and the number of natives was the decisive factor in such a low-level battle.

The natives armed with machetes gradually gained the upper hand, and those with bamboo spears began to retreat, and at this time, a thunderous movement sounded, and there was a rapid whistling sound in midair.

The natives were no strangers to such a sound, it was artillery, and after hearing this sound, the attack of the natives with machetes became much more fierce, because they knew that only the Spaniards had artillery, and it was the Spaniards who were supporting us.

This was a very short process, and soon some people heard that the direction of the shells was in the direction of the fortress, and the Han people actually had artillery.

Before he could react, the shells had already fallen into the crowd, and the artillery that could push the movement of the chaotic crowd would definitely not be a heavy artillery, but the three-pound cannon to cope with the current situation was enough to kill the natives who had almost no protection and were crowded together.

The shells flew by, the bones and muscles were broken, the flesh and blood were splattered, and more importantly, the morale of the natives with machetes collapsed in the face of this shelling.

The white people who are good at using firearms conquered Manila, they are like gods in the hearts of the natives, and the Han people have no firearms, and even the pirates are mainly jumping gangs and arson, but now it is different, the Han people who killed them actually carried firearms, so how to fight.

The shelling continued for two rounds, with nearly 200 natives killed and wounded, and then it completely retreated, and suddenly there was a wide road in front of the people armed with bamboo guns.

"Catch up!!"

There was no need for the people behind to shout, they were all roaring and rushing forward, in their hearts, as long as they could get one step closer to the fortress port area, the chance of survival was a little greater.

"It's almost range, everyone control it!"

This is not a shout, but the whispered restraint of the team behind, although the artillery of the fortress facing the residential area is not the kind of heavy artillery on the sea, but the range is also long enough, this must be guarded against, this side is nervously loaded, and then it is desperately pushed forward.

Manila is already the best place in Luzon, but the roads are still in tatters, if it weren't for the three-pound cannon, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to keep up with the natives in front.

"You also shout together, attack the fortress, everyone will have a chance to live, or you will die!!"

Before the words fell, a fire gun sounded, and the few who ran slowly and left behind were directly killed, one shouted, and two people shouted.

The natives didn't want the resistance in front of them to be too fierce, and of course they were willing to shout like this, and the natives with machetes dropped cannonballs on their heads, and if the distance between the two sides was widened, the sharpened bamboo poles took advantage of the assassination.

The situation changed again, the Han armed drive the natives with bamboo poles, but the natives with bamboo poles drove with machetes, layer by layer, as if the waves were rolling, towards the fortress.

In such a situation, it was impossible for the fortress not to open fire, and it was not long before there was a roar, and the natives were also screaming, and the momentum of the retreat was immediately stopped.

However, there was a problem, the artillery on the fortress was not flexible, and it could be dodged if it rushed into the firing range, but the artillery and fire guns that followed the natives gradually pressed up, and when they took a step back, they were about to fire behind them, and after a short period of stagnation, they rushed towards the direction of the fortress.

The performance of the natives on weekdays is too weak, and when the Spaniards run the port fortress, they are very careless about the internal defense, and the external is the high-walled cannon.

After the massacre of the Han Chinese, the Spaniards even shifted three more cannons to the sea, apparently believing that these natives, who resembled their co-defendants, would have no bad intentions, and that even if they wanted to attack, they would be able to rely on the Spanish infantry to suppress them.

There is nothing wrong with this tight arrangement on the outside and loose on the inside, but no one would have thought that the natives would be driven to attack the fortress without fear of life and death.

To be more accurate, it is not that the natives are not afraid of life and death, it is precisely because they are afraid of death, so they have to rush forward one after another, and the artillery on the fortress fires one after another, but soon, the natives did suffer heavy casualties under the artillery fire, but the artillery behind them has been changed to flat fire, and the fire is even more intensive.

The natives rushed through the range of the fortress artillery, and soon approached the side of the fortress, and now it was the women, children, and children who took the lead, and when the natives rushed back, these people were all left behind, and now they rushed back, under such a crazy momentum, they did not run, did not rush in front, then they would be trampled by the people behind them.

Paul Louis, the governor of Luzon, had been watching the situation from the top of the bell tower, and when he saw that the natives who had rushed out had rolled back again, he scolded a few words of "monkey" and shouted directly:

"Infantry on the fortifications, ready for battle!"

The distance is too close, and if you rush over, the artillery will no longer play a defensive role, whether it is from the angle or the frequency of fire, and it will still need the muskets and swords of the infantry.

In fact, without his order, the officers below had already made a similar arrangement, and at this moment, the officer who was looking out at the sea was heard shouting:

"The Portuguese ship has gone to Southport!"

Within the range of the fortress artillery, the ships at sea had to go around in a big circle, and they could not go ashore at the best place in the south port, but they could only do it at the edge, but the distance between the south port and the north port was very close, and it was not more than an hour to walk, and what did it mean for the enemy to land and go ashore there.

"Hold the fortress, outside the range of the fortress cannons, their heavy artillery has no way to open the fortress and consume the natives, and we can still fight for a decent surrender!"

Paul Louis gritted his teeth and said that the merchants in the fortress had been issued swords and muskets, and every man had to fight, even the women had to help reload their ammunition.

"Have you found the dead end?"

"I've found it!"

Wang Tong and one of the guards beside him asked and answered, and then turned his head and ordered that the Han people who had been gathered to demolish the houses of the natives were not just demolishing the space where the other party was hiding, but also to make suitable wood, with simple tools in hand, ladders and wooden shields and so on.

Not all the natives were driven up to attack the city, and the reserve natives took up these improvised tools and began to transport them under the drive.

The area covered by the artillery on the fortress was limited, and now the natives were already flocking to find the more remote corners, and it was not difficult to transport them up by the concealment of the houses.

Of course, the people who carried the tools were native, and it didn't matter if they lived or died, they just had to send their things and go.

According to the instructions, a watchtower has already been built with materials, and Wang Tong's guards will be released as generals in the future, so all skills are fully mastered, which is not difficult.

"How's the cattle and horses being collected?"

"Returning to my grandfather, there are no horses in the hands of the natives, the horses are all in the hands of the whites, and the cattle have collected two hundred and thirty heads."

Wang Tong nodded, turned his head to the watchtower and shouted:

"The boat didn't come over!"

"Back to Grandpa, the ship hasn't been there yet, but it's already rounded!"

The answer from the watchtower was very loud, Jiang Tong nodded, turned his head and said:

"Don't look at the large number of natives, but they may not be able to take this fortress, and we have to go up in the end, but there is no need to let the lives of the brothers be thrown on this, first drive the natives away."

In fact, along the way, these wealthy businessmen and sea owners who came to make a fortune all felt that their eyes were opened, especially after standing in Manila, with a point in the South Seas, what they could do, this prospect was even more dizzying, and if they wanted to do this, they had to have the support of Wang Tong.

Everyone understands very well, if you want to develop here for a long time, you need to use a boat, either rent or buy, this is the best to deal with Wang Tong's side, after getting the ship, the security and safety, I'm afraid you also need Wang Tong's greeting and protection

Needless to say, as for this goods, Songjiang Mansion and Tianjin Weina are big ports, even if there are things on the Luzon side, they must be sold in those two places, even artillery, personnel training, etc., etc., that is inseparable from the king

Tong, everyone understands this truth, and they are willing to spend money.

The loot looted this time, everyone unanimously asked the Guogong to distribute it, and all kinds of allocations were also requested by the Guogong to be the master, so waiting

comes to loot, and often has to indulge the people below, but Wang Tong will do whatever he says, and will never do it himself, these things are secondary. More than one person privately expressed his stance with Wang Tong, and the lives of these sons and daughters below would be handed over to the country

Grandpa, the meaning of this is not to let Wang Tong take care of it, but to make it clear, whatever you Wang Tong uses, whether you live or die, you can go back and find it again when you die, but Wang Tong's favor and kindness are not so easy to get.

has such a statement, and looking at the current scene, it is obvious that it is necessary to tackle the tough time, and it is also necessary to make up the mind to die, but Wang Tong is such a decision, this statement is for everyone's sake, but it is inevitably not decisive enough, in the various rumors of Guogong, it has not been said that Guogong is a soft-hearted person.

What everyone thought Wang Tong didn't care, he also went up to the watchtower, the herald guarded below, running at any time, the natives couldn't form any effective attack at all, and only rushed up frantically because of death persecution. Popping beans in general

The sound came to Wang Tong, that is, the faint sound of firecrackers, the white smoke that continued to spread on the fortress, Netcom saw it very clearly in the watchtower, every time the white smoke expanded out, the crazy crowd of people below retreated, and then it was too late

Suspiciously, continue to move forward.

This reluctant forward rush is often due to the sound of artillery in the back.

"Send a message to the sea and fire at the battery!"

Wang Tong ordered. ………………。

Because there are ships that are detouring towards Nangang, several large ships at sea are in a state of preparation for shooting, forming a confrontation with the fort battery and holding each other down.

After Wang Tong gave the order, he could naturally fire the cannon immediately, but how this order could be transmitted from the hinterland of the residential area to the sea did take a lot of trouble.

Originally, there was a lookout post on the mast, responsible for watching the sea, but now there are two, and some people are staring at a corner of Nangang, waiting for the message to be delivered there.

The signal was transmitted, several large ships began to clumsily adjust their positions, they adjusted their positions, and the Spanish artillerymen on the battery immediately noticed this movement and immediately made preparations.

But this preparation is also a helpless move, the range of the opponent's naval guns far exceeds that of the shore artillery, and the enemy's artillery battery will be damaged, and the artillery on his own side is at most a deterrent, and the comparison between the two is indeed very breathless.

It was still a thunderous bombardment, and the shell smashed into the stone wall of the fort, but the second shell obviously increased the angle of fire, and hit the battlement of the stone wall heavily, and the rubble flew down.

If it had been in the shelling a few days ago, it would not have been a big deal, the artillerymen had known for a long time to lie on the ground, but not now, inside and outside the fortress, up and down the stone walls, there were soldiers fighting everywhere, although not on the same side, and across a huge courtyard, the stone chips stirred up by the heavy artillery flew at high speed, and many people in the courtyard and on the stone walls were injured.

It may not be a fatal wound, but the wounds are horrific, the blood is flowing, the screams are continuous, and the soldiers who are concentrating on dealing with the natives will also be distracted.

There was another whistling sound in the direction of the sea, and this time the whites in the fortress did not care about anything, and immediately looked for a place to hide, but this time fortunately, the shells still hit the stone wall, this distance was too far, and the accuracy of the naval guns was not high, so they could not inflict casualties on the defenders of the fortress again and again.

But one time is enough, no one dares to risk their lives, but the attack on the fortress is not just one direction on the sea, as soon as their guards are relaxed, the natives are closer to more, the so-called dilemma is like this, fortunately, the natives are like rabbits.

There was a burst of firearms, and they immediately ran away in panic, for fear that they would be affected, but the sound of cannons on the sea sounded sparsely, and there was no way to concentrate on defending them, but the equipment of the natives had already been transported.

The loneliness of the ancient uploads.
