Just when the Philippine Governor was jumping up and down to arrange the defense of Manila, the expeditionary fleet of the Great China and North Korea Navy under the leadership of the one-eyed dragon had already approached Manila after more than ten days of arduous sailing.

Although it has entered autumn at this time, the number of typhoons at sea has been significantly reduced, but the fleet still encountered a strong wind on the way, fortunately the sailors on the ship are experienced, and the ship structure is solid, although it caused some ship damage, but the loss is not severe, after passing through the wheal, the scattered fleet slowly regrouped, and finally only lost one light gunboat, and the rest of the ships only suffered minor damage, such a loss for this era, If it weren't for the fact that the Great China and North Korea built warships that far exceeded the construction standards of ordinary merchant ships, such a fleet would have suffered far more losses than this if it encountered such a strong wind at sea.

Another point is that the officers and sailors on the ship are all elites, all officers have received systematic education, at least they have experienced many voyages with the ship, as for the sailors, they are the best of the best, they are old sea wolves who have been in battle for a long time, even the trainee officers on the ship have been specially trained by the sailor school, so the people on the ship work together, which is also an important factor in ensuring the safety of the ship!

Each of the ships was accompanied by craftsmen, and one of them had been converted into a repair ship before it set out, with several iron furnaces on board, and a large number of craftsmen who had gone to great lengths to repair the damaged ships during the voyage.

When their fleet arrived in Manila, the ships of the fleet had been basically repaired, and the ability to fight normally had been restored, but the soldiers of the army who went out with the ships suffered a great crime, and when they experienced the baptism of the storm, most of them were seasick and dizzy, vomiting and vomiting and diarrhea, and by this time, they had not been able to recover their bodies, and most of them were in a relatively weak state, and it was obvious that they could not be counted on for the time being.

One day in October, the One-Eyed Dragon led his fleet to the mouth of Manila Bay, where it finally met the Spanish fleet in the Philippines.

If it was twenty years ago, in the face of the naval fleet of the Ming Dynasty, they could be said to be the giant-level warships, and the firepower was extremely strong, but now when facing the new large, Chinese and North Korean naval fleets, these Spanish armed merchant ships have become small, and their firepower is extremely weak.

When the two fleets encountered, the one-eyed dragon personally commanded the flagship, led the gunboat formation, and pounced on these Spanish fleets like hungry tigers.

The number of the Spanish fleet here is very pitiful, only a dozen warships of different sizes, and most of the ships are some hired sailors, belonging to merchant sailors, there is no determination and fighting spirit to serve the Spanish king at all, plus their strength is completely at a disadvantage, after facing the fleet of the one-eyed dragon, there is no chance for them to bubble.

The large and medium fleet completely occupied an absolute advantage, and under the leadership of the one-eyed dragon, it launched a fierce attack on the Spanish fleet with the momentum of the lion fighting the rabbit and using all its strength.

After a naval battle, more than a dozen Spanish warships and armed merchant ships were sunk about one-third on the spot, and most of the remaining remaining ships were also battered and scarred, and the captain had to order to hang a white flag to announce surrender and was captured by the large and medium fleet.

Then the one-eyed dragon led the fleet to immediately capture the island at the mouth of Manila Bay, which was later called Corregido Island, which is the gateway to Manila Bay, and Corregido Island is the Bataan Peninsula on the left hand, and Cavite on the right hand, which is exactly at the mouth of Manila Bay, which can be said to be a battleground for soldiers all the time.

On Corregidor Island, the Spaniards built a lighthouse and stationed a small number of defenders to defend it, but in the face of the huge large and medium-sized fleet, the defenders on the island did not even dare to fire their guns, so they announced their surrender.

After the one-eyed dragon took control of Corregidor Island, he led his army to attack Cavite on his right, and quickly cleared the Spanish defenders of the beachhead, and ordered the troop convoy to dock and unload.

Only then was the army on the troop transport ship able to set foot on solid ground, and after going ashore, almost all of them were weak and a little dizzy, and they couldn't find their roots for a long time.

Fortunately, there were naval warships watching over them, and if there was no naval fleet to protect them, even if one or two thousand indigenous black-skinned monkeys came to raid the land forces that landed at this time, it was estimated that they would be able to capture them alive.

The one-eyed dragon ordered the army battalions to rest on the shore and temporarily fortify, build improvised fortifications, and rest for two days before engaging in the next battle.

And he himself did not stop for a moment, and led most of the warships to the city of Manila in Manila Bay.

The governor of Manila did not expect that the Dazhong Dynasty would send such a powerful fleet this time, so he was frightened and peed his pants on the spot, and hurriedly organized all the capable personnel to enter the fortifications, board the castle, issue arquebuses, take out the ammunition from the ammunition depot, transport it to the gun emplacement, and start preparing for war.

The one-eyed dragon didn't negotiate with the Spanish governor here or anything, and just started fighting, assigning targets with the fleet, and then starting to bombard.

The fire of the Spaniards on the shore was also fierce, and at the beginning of the artillery battle, the large and medium fleet did not take much advantage, and the ships were repeatedly hit by the cannons of the Spaniards in various batteries, causing considerable damage to the sailors on board.

But the one-eyed dragon was unmoved, according to his words, if you don't die in a war, it's not a war, what is it if you die a few people, and those who die are martyrs when they go back, and they can be cared for, and if you are afraid that he is a bird, you will continue to shoot at close range.

The sailors of the ships gritted their teeth and persevered, constantly pushing the ships closer to the batteries on the shore and directly shelling the batteries and castles with the heavy guns on board.

After all, the number of artillery in the battery is limited, and the relative position is fixed, although the shooting is relatively accurate, but it can't stand up to group fighting! Moreover, the bows of many ships in the Great and Medium Fleet are loaded with their strongest forty-eight-pound Caron cannon, this guy is a big killer, a solid bullet weighs forty pounds, even if it is smashed, it is enough for the Spaniards to drink a pot.

Under the concentrated fire of the large and medium fleet, the forts set up by the Spaniards on the shore began to be destroyed one after another, and when some of the forts were bombarded, even the Spanish defenders in the forts were buried alive and did not escape.

This kind of shelling lasted all day, and although the ammunition consumption of the large and medium fleet was very strict, it also achieved quite good results, almost destroying all the Spanish batteries in Manila Harbor, and even if the batteries were not completely destroyed, they basically lost much combat effectiveness.

Early the next morning, the one-eyed dragon ordered the ships to replenish ammunition from the supply ships, sailed into the port of Manila again, and began to concentrate their fire on the city of Manila.

The Spanish defenders resisted desperately, but under such intensive artillery fire, they suffered heavy losses, the gun emplacements above the castle were destroyed, and the defenders were killed and wounded.

The two consecutive days of fleet shore bombardment have completely destroyed the entire defense system of the West Batters in Manila, and they have basically lost their perfect defensive ability.

On the third day, the army had recovered from the landing in Cavite, and the soldiers had relieved themselves of the seasickness and began to fight, and they surrounded the city of Manila by land and water.

It was only at this time that the Spaniards knew the power of the Great Chinese Army, and the One-Eyed Dragon also drew 5,000 sailors from the fleet, armed with a short version of the wolf's tooth II infantry-gun, to assist the army in attacking Manila City.

The Spanish defenders in Manila originally planned to do their best to defend the city, but they did not expect that the infantry guns of the large Chinese army could hit so far and so accurately, and the large Chinese army did not line up too far, so they simply approached the distance of about 100 meters to the city of Manila, built a simple breastwork, and then behind the breastwork, began to launch concentrated fire on the Spanish defenders of Manila City.

The sharpshooters and snipers of the first class and above were all lined up behind the breastwork, while the rest of the infantry were responsible for reloading them, and after a brief burst of heavy fire, the Spanish infantry defending the city were beaten on their backs.

And the sad thing is that the arquebuses in their hands are completely out of reach of the Dazhong army under the city, and they can only be beaten passively, they finally resurrect some firepower points and re-erect the cannons, but they will soon be covered by the fierce fire of the Dazhong fleet.

After two days of fierce fighting, the Spanish defenders in the city were almost completely unable to resist, and the Philippine governor saw that he could not hold on, so he had to send someone to negotiate with the cyclops.

The One-Eyed ordered them to surrender immediately and unconditionally, or else they would storm the city and slaughter all the Spaniards in the city, as well as anyone who had resisted the Great Chinese Army.

The Spanish colonists really had no choice but to announce their surrender, opened the gates of Manila City to announce their surrender, and then were all captured by the Dazhong army, among which the officers and governors were sent back to Dazhong Dynasty and entered Beijing to offer victory, and then the one-eyed dragon commanded the soldiers and horses, and began to clear the remaining strongholds and forces of the Spaniards in various parts of the Philippines, and led the fleet to attack everywhere, and destroyed or conquered some of the castle strongholds of the Spaniards on the surrounding islands.

The entire war against the Philippines lasted for more than three months, and it lasted until the beginning of the fourth year of the Great Chinese Dynasty Chengtian, when it was completely over, and all the colonies established by the Spaniards in the Philippines were all captured by the Great Chinese Army, capturing more than 2,000 purebred Spaniards, in addition to more than 700 mercenary sailors from Europe and Asia and even India hired by the Spaniards.

As for the local indigenous black-skinned monkeys, more than 5,000 people were captured, and of course, the thousands of people killed by the Dazhong Army could not be counted among them.

Subsequently, Emperor Dazhong Yu Xiaotian announced the complete recovery of Luzon, and announced that the entire territory of the Philippines would be renamed Luzon Province, and incorporated it into the territory of Dazhong Dynasty, and sent officials to Manila City, and renamed Manila City South Lucheng, and was responsible for the management of the entire Luzon Province in the future, and stationed 6,000 Dazhong troops and a Luzon detachment with 20 warships to garrison Manila and all parts of Luzon Island.

At this point, the Spanish colonization of the Philippines also came to an end completely, and they were driven out of Luzon.
