The artillery fire of the Ming Dynasty has enveloped most of the royal city, and the fleet on the sea is already 'useless'.
Cao Wenzhao looked at the newly obtained map, pointed to the rivers and harbors, and said to the coming Dao: "You immediately lead people to block these places, no one is allowed to escape, especially the governor, you have to bring it back, and use the 'international court' to adjudicate it, and correct the law of the country!"
” This 'international tribunal' is the embodiment of Zhu Xu's series of 'treaties', set up in Jinyin Village, used to adjudicate foreign disputes, and now only the Dutch participate, and it will not be long before Spain, then England, and so on.
Zhu Xu's purpose is very simple, not only to be the drafter of the 'international treaty', the identity of the leader, but also to be the person who holds the actual power, and the Ming Dynasty should play the role of the leader and leader of the 'international community'!
This is still preliminary, after all, the 'international' is still very small, there are not many contacts, and it takes time to make a difference, and it will be cultivated slowly.
Lai Daosheng didn't understand the 'International Tribunal', but he knew that he must catch these Xiyi ghosts who dared to insult the Ming Dynasty!
"Yes, don't worry, I won't let any of them go!"
After speaking, he took the point map, looked at the points drawn by Cao Wenzhao, found people, and arranged for small ships to go out.
There were only more than 50 people on these small ships, but they all carried muskets and arrows, and as long as they were not regular Spanish troops, they could sweep away, let alone simply block the river.
Liu Wentian's artillery offensive became more and more fierce, and almost all the cannons he brought were put out, shelling the royal city from all directions, and then constantly advancing, almost everywhere was not spared.
"Go on, don't stop!"
Liu Wentian took the telescope and searched in the thick smoke, but whenever he saw a place that was still intact and standing, he ordered the artillery to blow it up directly!
This Manila will be an important stronghold of the Ming Dynasty in the South China Sea, even the center, connecting the mainland, and then hooking up Batavia, Malacca, the importance is self-evident.
In Zhu Xu's plan, it will be a core area integrating military, economy, and culture, a large base station for the radiation of Daming energy, and the ruling center of the South China Sea!
Therefore, it was necessary to rebuild, to rebuild a huge city, like a benchmark, standing on the South China Sea, and at the same time influencing the stronghold of the Ming Dynasty's overseas expansion in the future!
Liu Wentian shelled for a while, and under the protection of the gunners and arrow artillerymen, he pushed the cannon forward, and then continued the shelling.
Today, Manila is doomed!
Cao Wenzhao also went ashore, wearing the uniform of the Ming Dynasty, showing his majesty and domineering.
Everywhere he passed, he could hardly see anyone, and he didn't know where to hide.
Manila is not big, and the Spanish deliberately suppressed and slaughtered, and the Spaniards were extremely few, many of whom were European missionaries, explorers, or refugees fleeing the war.
Now they were all hiding in the royal city, trembling under the bombardment of the cannons, and they kept praying to God.
Ankaya was now hiding in the basement, listening to the sound of cannon fire outside, looking at the dust that shook everywhere, frowning and looking cold.
Behind her, a tall white man said with a worried face, "Ankaya, if this continues, the whole of Manila will be razed to the ground, and we won't be able to hide for long......"
Ankaya naturally knew, but she still held on to hope, took a breath, held her big breasts, turned her head to look at him and said, "Where is Acuña now?"
” The tall white man was Ankaya's bodyguard, the kind that was close to him at night, and when he heard this, he said: "I don't know, but he should have fled, if there are five thousand people, he may resist, two thousand old and weak soldiers, he won't ......"
Ankaya frowned, expressionless.
She is actually not a Spanish royal family, but the illegitimate daughter of a count in Portugal, and many people will give face if they don't untie it, and they will be worthless when they are spread out.
She can't go back in failure, it won't end well, not even a lowly prostitute.
Ankaya suddenly turned his head to look at the guards beside him and asked, "Adava, do you think that the Ming will kill us all?"
” Adava said: "Of course, if we fall into the hands of the natives, they will not let it go, and they will definitely use the most cruel methods, such as burning us with strange rituals. ” Ankaya's expression was a little tangled, and he said: "However, the Ming country has advanced warships and cannons, they shouldn't be comparable to the natives on these islands, right?"
I've read travelogues that say their civilization was more prosperous than Europe......"
Adava understood a little and said, "What are you going to do?"
” Ankaya's eyes burst into light and said, "I'm going to cooperate with Akito, or rather, I'm going to surrender, they're going to need me!"
” Adava looked slightly shocked and said, "Ankaya, this is a betrayal, you must know that once you do this, you will never go back!"
” Ankaya stood up and said with an extremely serious expression: "Yes, I know very well that if you don't do this, there is no difference between going back and dying here." ” Adava knows Ankaya's embarrassment, awkward identity, awkward status, and awkward situation, so to speak, this is a poor woman who is destined for fate before she is born.
He didn't speak, just stood behind her.
He was also embarrassed, as the son of a commoner, he had no way to survive in prosperous Spain, so he could only go to sea in search of wealth and status.
Ankaya knew that Adava would follow him, took a deep breath, and said, "Adava, go, I want to talk to the commander of the Ming Dynasty, I still have some bargaining chips." ” "Yes!"
Adava took a deep look at Ankaya, found a white flag, and exited the basement.
Cao Wenzhao came to Liu Wentian's side, looking at the royal city where there was thick smoke everywhere, explosions, and no intact buildings could be seen, I don't know why, my heart suddenly felt relieved, and there was no anger before.
Liu Wentian was very excited, and said loudly, "My lord, it's about to be bulldozed, and no one has come out!"
” Liu Wentian placed more than 600 cannons, and even if someone rushed out, they would be killed in the middle of the road, and in the small building complex, it was almost carpet bombing, which was not suitable for charging or returning fire at all.
Cao Wenzhao picked up the telescope, although the smoke was like fog and he could hardly see anything clearly, Cao Wenzhao still silently estimated for a while in his heart, and said: "Stop the cannon and prepare to enter the city!"
” Liu Wentian is still unsatisfied, but it is indeed almost blown up, and if it continues to be bombed, it will only be repeated bombardment of rubble.
He ordered the artillery to be stopped, and at the same time ordered the musketeers and arrow artillery to prepare.

According to the current military level of the Ming Dynasty, especially in terms of equipment, the army has almost no opponents on land, unless it encounters difficult cavalry in a vast area.
Mobility, even in later generations, was a factor that had a great impact on the outcome of a war.
There was still green smoke swirling from the muzzles of the cannons, and in the distance was a thick cloud of smoke that had not dissipated for a short time, enveloping a city, which had become rubble.
The royal city of Manila was suddenly bombed, shrouded in thick smoke, and the rumbling cannon sound was dispersed, alarming an unknown number of people around.
In a manor not far from the city, the merchants of the Ming Dynasty who were driven out were all worried and frightened, but the sudden explosion made them all look at it in horror.
The most unfortunate thing about war is that it will always be the people, and their 'remnants'!
After I don't know how long, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy ran in like an arrow and shouted, "It's an official army!"
It's the official army, it's the official army of our dynasty, and they've come to save us......"
"What do you say, make it clear, what officers and soldiers ......"
"Where did the officers and soldiers come from, how could there be officers and soldiers, are you mistaken......
"Yes, how can the army of the imperial court care about our life and death......
"It's not like the Spaniards are pretending to be trying to kill us, right?"
"I think we'd better hide quickly, or it'll be too late......"
The young man who rushed in was red-faced, stared at a group of people and couldn't take care of his breath, and said loudly: "It's the official army, I saw the Daming Dragon Banner, and the battleships, all of them are our army, and they are spreading paper everywhere, look at it......"
The young man hurriedly handed over a few pieces of paper in his hand, and at the same time said: "The royal city is now all rubble, and the officials and soldiers are still bombarding, we have been saved......
A group of people could no longer hear what he was saying, and they all scrambled to see the leaflets in their hands.
These are all Cao Wenzhao's methods, and in order to have greater influence, he has ordered people to spread them everywhere.
"The Franco-Robot Man Invades Fu.
In the state capital, the officers and troops counterattacked, and the Franco-robot fleet was almost completely annihilated, and only a few warships escaped back......"
"It turns out that the emperor has declared war on the Francos more than a month ago......"
"This is General Cao leading the troops, I know him, he is a close confidant of the emperor, in charge of the army......"
"Woo woo, we've been saved, we've been saved......"
"General Cao said in the letter that he wanted to rescue us, rebuild Luzon, and ask us to go to welcome Wang Shi into the city......"
"Then what are you waiting for, let's go, we're fed up with Franco's anger, and we're going to welcome the king into the city......"
"No, not only us, but also the Philippines, no, some people in Luzon, they will definitely welcome the ...... of the king" "Yes, yes, hurry, bring something, you can't go empty-handed......"
These Ming merchants were extremely excited, they thought they were going to be reduced to fish and meat, but they didn't expect the king from heaven to come and rescue them!
Some of them have been living in Luzon for two or three generations, but when they heard Wang Shi coming north, they were still very excited, clamoring to greet and meet!
It didn't take long for them to contact hundreds of people, preparing things while quietly sending people to see Cao Wenzhao.
The indigenous Filipinos are even happier, and the leaflets they get clearly 'drive away the Xiyi and treat them as if they were Ming', that is to say, the Ming will treat them as Ming people, and will not treat them differently, let alone enslave them like the Francois people!
Some Filipino natives, who had long been dissatisfied with the Spaniards, also gathered in secret, while observing, and did not act rashly.
Cao Wenzhao didn't know about these yet, but stood in front of the thick smoke, quietly looking at the royal city that had been overturned, and secretly wondered if there would be any changes. —— Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a subscription~
