The reason why there are so few is not only because some people do not believe Ma Sancai's words and choose to risk the lives of their entire family on the integrity of the Spaniards.
What's more, many people entered the bastion before Ma Sancai and others.
Even if these people believe Ma Sancai's words, they still can't escape even if they want to!
As a result, in the end, only seven to eight hundred people escaped from the Spanish clutches.
The remaining two thousand Chinese were all deceived by the Spanish into the San Fernando bastion, and were about to face a bloody massacre by the Spanish.
After all the Chinese entered the bastion, the Spaniards drove nearly two thousand Chinese into the Wengcheng and then closed the gates of the Wengcheng.
Nearly two thousand Chinese people crowded into the small space of Wengcheng, and from time to time someone would curse.
"How is this going?"
"Why do you want us to come to this place?"
"Don't crowd, don't crowd, it's so crowded!"
"..."
Looking at the closed city gate, many people suddenly remembered Ma Sancai's shout just now, and a bad premonition arose in their hearts.
But, it's too late now!
They had been driven into the urn city and turned into meat on the Spanish chopping board. They could not even escape, let alone resist.
The next moment, gunfire exploded!
The muskets and artillery on the Spanish bastion were all aimed at the Chinese in the barbican, and then opened fire.
Boom! Boom!
The Spanish artillery fired shotgun shells, and the dense barrage was as dense as a torrential downpour, rapidly reaping lives.
Shotguns swept through the crowd, taking away every living life!
Immediately afterwards, there were bursts of neat volleys of gunfire!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Spanish musketeers lined up on the walls of Wengcheng, aiming their guns at the Chinese people in Wengcheng.
The gunshot exploded, and a lot of gunpowder smoke spewed out from the muzzle!
Lead bullets were fired into the crowd, killing lives: old people, children, young people, men, women, fat people, thin people, tall people, short people...
There is no difference here!
At the head of the bastion filled with gunfire, Dova showed no expression at all on his face.
It seems that those being slaughtered are not unarmed civilians at all, but a group of pigs, dogs and livestock.
The reason why this is so is because Dova is a devout Catholic, and in Catholic teachings, pagans are not considered human beings.
Dowa waved away the smoke in front of him and said while covering his nose.
"Keep firing and kill all these damn Chinese!"
The Chinese in the urn were screaming, wailing, begging for mercy, cursing, and so on.
Some people collapsed on the ground, closing their eyes and waiting for death.
Some people did not give up, and rushed against the gate of Wengcheng with all their strength, trying to break the gate open and escape.
However, since the Spaniards have made the decision to massacre China, they will naturally be fully prepared.
The front and rear gates of Wengcheng have long been blocked by them.
The sound of gunfire continued for half an hour. Half an hour later, nearly two thousand Chinese in Wengcheng were slaughtered.
Corpses, broken limbs and broken arms were everywhere, and there were almost no living people left.
The gate of the barbican city was opened, and the Spanish soldiers walked in with their bayonets fixed on their muskets.
Instantly, the smell of blood and gunpowder smoke mixed together, coming from the pavement!
Very pungent!
Low wails and weak screams filled the air.
The Spanish soldiers stepped forward and began to inflict wounds on the corpses one by one.
Whether they are old people or children, as long as they look like they still have life, they will step forward and give them a stab.
Amidst the constant blows of the Spanish soldiers, this brutal and bloody massacre finally came to an end!
The Spanish soldiers drove the natives to dig pits in the urn city to dispose of the corpses, and personally searched for property.
Dowa received the report from his cronies and learned that the massacre was over. He didn't feel the slightest discomfort and just nodded.
"Very good, all infidels should be killed. These lowly Chinese pigs should be killed. The air in San Fernando will be much cleaner!"
"Order people to dispose of the body, and then prepare for battle!"
"Let us beat those damn Chinese rebels in San Fernando!"
The cronies took the order and started arranging the defense of San Fernando.
…
The Liberation Army marched along the river, soldiers walked along the bank, and the boats in the river carried various baggage.
A large amount of food and medicinal materials, as well as artillery, gunpowder, shells, thunderbolts, etc., and even the breastplates worn by the Liberation Army soldiers were all transported by ships.
Only during wartime would they be transported off the ship and equipped with equipment for soldiers.
The Liberation Army advanced along the river and approached San Fernando. Military songs were played loudly along the way, demonstrating the high morale of the army.
"The clouds follow the dragon, the wind follows the tiger, fame and fortune follow the dust and dirt!"
"Looking at China, the people are suffering and the fertile land for thousands of miles is barren!"
"Look at the world, there are no barbarians, and only one man can make up for what is missing in the way of heaven!"
"A good man, don't care about his parents, he only cares about the common people and not the master!"
"..."
"Don't you see, the Han Dynasty's army is over, and the weak-headed prisoners are asking for long tassels!"
"Don't you see, Ban Dingyuan, Jueyu Qingqi urges Zhanyun!"
"A man has a dangerous career, how can he miss his life because of his Confucianism..."
"..."
Zhu Hongyu walked among the soldiers without any airs, just like an ordinary soldier.
He, like all of them, sang military songs loudly together.
The Liberation Army adjusted their pace according to the rhythm of military songs, and marched forward in an orderly manner. Countless legs were raised and lowered together. Although they were marching, there was no confusion at all.
A mighty military power rushed towards us.
At this moment, a scout from the Liberation Army suddenly rushed from a distance.
"Report!"
"Urgent military situation, urgent military situation!"
Zhu Hongyu's expression changed, and he raised his hand to signal the marching Liberation Army to stop.
In just an instant, the Liberation Army all stopped and the loud military songs stopped abruptly.
The order and prohibition last only a moment!
The scout quickly ran to Zhu Hongyu, and Zhu Hongyu asked.
"What happened? I'm so panicked!"
The scout took a breath, and then spoke in a hurried tone to report.
"Report to the general, our scouts found a group of refugees five miles ahead."
"There are seven to eight hundred people in total, and these refugees are all Chinese living near San Fernando."
"After a brief inquiry, our scouts learned that the Spanish guard Dova in San Fernando ordered the massacre of the Chinese. When these refugees fled, they had heard the sound of gunfire from San Fernando. The massacre must have already begun.
here we go."
"So far, the number of victims is unknown, but a conservative estimate is that there must be at least nearly 2,000 people."
When Zhu Hongyu heard this, he was completely confused.
His face was full of disbelief, and his blood pressure was soaring!
"I fucked the Spanish horse!"
"Are they crazy? They didn't take my threats to heart at all!"
"Those who step on horses, those who step on horses, those who step on horses!"
"I swear, if they kill a Chinese, I will kill two Spaniards and bury him with him!"
"Horse rider!"
Zhu Hongyu took a deep breath, calmed down his irritable mood, and breathed heavily.
Then he opened his mouth and gave instructions to the scout in front of him.
"Go, go and bring the leader of the refugees to my general!"
"This general wants to know the whole story, what is going on!"
"The Spaniard who trampled the horse!"
The scouts took the order and left, but Zhu Hongyu's anger still did not weaken at all.
