Two thousand five hundred Spanish soldiers completely collapsed, and a thousand Ming cavalry rushed into the rout, and corpses were strewn across the wilderness.The Ming army and the horses pursued all the way to the sea, and the Spaniards on the sea did not dare to bombard the beach.At this time, the Spanish soldiers, together with the officers and nobles on the coast, rushed the ships, and the scene was extremely chaotic, and the well-disciplined Spaniards were all orphans.Franco climbed into a small boat, and the boat rowed to the galleon on the sea, and he sat down in the bow of the boat, his eyes glazed over, unable to believe what he was seeing.One by one, small boats left the seashore and fled the slaughter of the Ming army with the Spaniards, but more people were trapped on the beachhead and were harvested by the Ming soldiers who repeatedly rushed to kill.The Spaniards, who had a nervous breakdown, saw that they could not escape, so they could only surrender one after another.The Spanish gunboats anchored on the sea, seeing that there were more and more Ming troops chasing to the seashore, knew that the Spanish army was finished this time.At this time, Franco got on the sailboat, and seeing that the rest of the people could not be picked up, he finally gave the order in anger and let the sailboat shell the beach.The Spanish gunboats were on the side, the artillery roared, the shells smashed into the beach, and the Spaniards, who did not have time to retreat, were hit by the shells and immediately howled miserably.The Ming cavalry who rushed to kill on the beach were hit by the splashed stones, and the people also howled and neighed and fell off the horses.Franco was quite relieved when he saw this, and was about to order to continue the bombardment, but the Ming warships cruising in the distance directly pounced.In the past, the Spanish sailing ships would not have been afraid of the Ming warships, but at this time, the Spaniards were defeated on land, the morale of the army was shaken, and the navy had no intention of fighting.Franco looked at the Ming army on the beach with resentment, as well as the Ming warship that rushed to it, and said with hatred: "God will not forgive you!"
”After saying that, he could only order the evacuation.Several Spanish sailing ships, with full sails hung up, sailors adjusted their direction, and the ships fled from the sea outside Tamsui Harbor in a hurry in the water column splashed by the shelling of the Ming gunboats.A day later, the embarrassed Spanish fleet sailed back to Chicken Coop Harbor, Franco counted it, only 803 of the 3,000 Spaniards returned to Chicken Coop Harbor, more than 2,000 people were killed, captured or missing, and half of Spain's power in the Far East was lost.Now there are only more than 1,400 Spaniards left on the entire island of Taiwan, plus the Spaniards in Manila, and the Spanish soldiers in the Far East, there are less than 3,000.With this little strength, the Spaniards are no longer able to counterattack, and self-preservation has become a problem!
…… The wilderness east of Tamsui Harbor was littered with the corpses of Spanish soldiers who had been killed, and the desperate Spanish soldiers fled to the beach, where they were swept into the sea by cavalry and cannonballs.The Ming soldiers on the shore saw that in the sea, dense human heads were struggling in the sea, and floating corpses soon floated on the sea.The Spaniards, struggling in the sea, watched the Spaniard's sailboat move away, fluttered in despair, and finally sank into the water.As night fell, the battlefield was calm, and the smoke was still everywhere, and among the yellow weeds, thousands of Spaniard corpses were scattered all over the land, and the world was in a state of gloom.On the battlefield, the Ming soldiers began to wave their weapons and cheered loudly in unison, especially the Tun soldiers who participated in the battle, all of them were red and shouted, "Ten thousand victories!"
”Zhao Ming rode a horse and stood in the center of the battlefield, surrounded by the corpses, weapons, armor and flags of the two soldiers, the ground was full of blood-stained red marks, and on the sea in the distance, the waves pushed the corpses onto the beach, densely packed with a large number of corpses, which was shocking.For the first time since Spain embarked on the road of colonization, the Spanish colonizers suffered such a heavy blow, and the entire Far East was almost completely depleted, and if they wanted to be replenished, they would have to wait at least a year or two to replenish them.This was the perfect time for Zhao Ming to completely defeat the Spaniards in the Far East and seize their colonies in the Far East.At this time, the sound of horses' hooves came, and the cavalry escorted a large number of captives past, and the cavalry Qianhu Luo Wenyao ran in front of Zhao Ming, turned over and dismounted, and reported loudly, "Dudu, let hundreds of Spaniards escape, and the rest of the Spaniards were all killed or captured."
After a rough count, nearly 1,000 enemies were killed and nearly 1,000 were captured. ”Zhao Ming bowed his head with satisfaction, and ordered in a deep voice: "Order the soldiers to clean up the battlefield and take off all the muskets and armor of the Spaniards to the governor." ”The Spaniards' muskets are sharp, the armor is excellent, after Zhao Ming captured this batch of muskets and armor, he made another batch himself, as long as he can equip 10,000 people, and then train them, this 10,000 Ming army can go sideways, even if he meets the Eight Banners, he doesn't have to be afraid.Moreover, if the Ming army could have a flintlock army of nearly 10,000 people, in the Far East, whether it was the Spanish or the Dutch, they would be gradually defeated by Zhao Ming, and Zhao Ming would become the new king of the sea in East Asia.Luo Wenyao immediately clenched his fists, "Humble and orderly!"
”At this time, Li Zhongming and the others also galloped over, and said excitedly: "Governor, the Spaniards have suffered heavy losses, and there are more than 1,000 prisoners alone, what should we do with them?"
”Zhao Ming smiled and said: "There will be a skill to pick out, and all the rest will be sent to the mine." ”The island of Taiwan is rich in products, and the mineral resources such as copper, iron, and coal that the Ming army urgently needed during the war are distributed on the island of Taiwan.After the Ming army landed on the island, they attached great importance to the mining of mineral resources and metal smelting, and built a mine where the veins were found.Compared with farming, miners undoubtedly have to work too hard, and Zhao Ming can't give miners too high a salary, so the people still want to have a few acres of land and don't want to go to the mine to do things.Due to the limitation of productivity, mineral mining is more difficult, and it is all dependent on manual mining and transportation, and the cost is all on manpower.The Ming Dynasty could not afford to improve the treatment, and the copper and iron smelted by the Ming Dynasty could not afford it, and the best way to reduce the cost was to use prisoners of war to mine.Zhao Ming's words decided the fate of the vast majority of Spanish captives.Wang Dana opened his mouth and said: "Governor, there are only about 3,600 Spaniards in Taiwan.Now we have annihilated and captured at least more than 2,000 people in one battle, and the main force of the Spaniards is finished.At this time, whether to take advantage of the victory to pursue, pull out the chicken coop city, and completely drive the Spaniards out of Taiwan!
”Zhao Ming nodded without hesitation, "Naturally!"
The whole army, the tun army and the infantry army were ordered to clean up the battlefield, the medical team treated the wounded, and the horse army of each battalion immediately gathered men and horses, and within one day, killed the commander under the chicken coop city, to prevent the Spaniards from collecting the supplies outside the fortress into the city, and then resisted stubbornly. ”All the generals clenched their fists in unison, "Obey!"
”At noon the next day, almost as Franco entered the port of the chicken coop, the cavalry of the Ming army also killed outside the city of the chicken coop.At this time, Franco boarded the fortress and saw the Ming cavalry roaring and galloping in the distance, his face was gloomy, "Damn Chinese, the empire will definitely not let you go!"
”(It's late again.)Tomorrow it will return to normal, one chapter at twelve o'clock at noon, one chapter at six o'clock in the evening and one chapter at twelve o'clock in the evening, and one more chapter in the middle if possible!
