"Your Excellency, Colonel, what you do will affect the friendship between the Governor's Palace and our Pampanga tribe."
"We are also believers in God, and our lives are also life!"
Lone Wolf said in a very firm tone.
"Your Excellency, Colonel, you can no longer ask us to die!"
"The warriors of Pampanga have sacrificed more than a thousand lives to conquer this fortress."
"We have paid enough for the Governor's Mansion. I will not take my people to die anymore."
"I imagine representatives from other tribes thought the same thing!"
After Lone Wolf finished speaking, representatives of other tribes around him spoke one after another.
"Your Majesty Colonel, we need an explanation!"
"Yes, Colonel, our warriors can risk their lives to fight for the Governor's Mansion, but they cannot sacrifice in vain."
"Your Excellency, Colonel, please go and request the Governor to mobilize more powerful artillery reinforcements! Otherwise, this fortress cannot be conquered."
"We have made enough sacrifices, and our patience has its limits!"
The expression on Robin's face quickly turned cold and he spoke.
"Now, immediately, immediately, lead your people to continue the attack. This is the last warning!"
"Otherwise, there will be consequences at your own risk!"
Robin's face looked ugly. Do these natives still want the Spaniards to die as cannon fodder for them?
It’s simply unreasonable!
Everyone was still shouting, Robin snorted coldly, stopped talking nonsense, looked murderous in his eyes, waved his hand and gave an order.
"Fire!"
Bang! Bang bang! Bang bang bang!
Robin gave an order, and the Spanish musketeers arrayed not far away all pulled the triggers.
There was a roar of musketry, and a large amount of smoke and fire spewed out from the muzzle.
The smoke obscured the sight, and the lead bullets spun out from the barrel of the gun!
In the blink of an eye, a group of Pampanga people who were retreating were swept away by lead bullets, killing and wounding a large number of them.
The expressions of Lone Wolf and others changed drastically, and their faces were full of disbelief.
Lone Wolf's face turned a little pale and he spoke.
"Lo...Colonel Robin, what are you doing?!"
"Why kill our warriors!"
Colonel Robin said coldly.
"I'm just executing deserters!"
"Now immediately, take your people and continue the attack!"
"I don't need cowards among my men!"
Lone Wolf was so angry that his body was shaking slightly, but in front of the black muzzle of the gun and the cannon, he didn't even dare to fart.
Taking a deep breath, Lone Wolf nodded and said.
"Please rest assured, Colonel, there are no cowards among the warriors of the Pampanga tribe!"
After that, he led his men to continue the attack.
However, his face was ugly to the naked eye.
The leaders of other Pampanga tribes also expressed their opinions one after another.
"Don't worry, Colonel, we will continue the attack!"
"We will definitely kill all those damn Chinese!"
"..."
Robin nodded slightly and said.
"Your sacrifice will not be in vain. I will report it to the Governor and ask for a reward for you!"
Robin knows very well that dog training requires carrots and sticks.
To treat a disobedient dog, you need to use both soft and hard tactics. You can't just use a big stick to teach the dog, but you also have to throw a meat bone to it from time to time to appease it.
The natives continued to attack the bastion of the Liberation Army!
Amidst the shouts of killing, a large group of dark figures rushed towards the bastion.
…
"Battalion Commander, our artillery can no longer fire!"
"Yes, battalion commander, the three cannons fired several rounds in a row, and the barrels of the cannons have turned red. We can't continue firing!"
"It needs to cool down for a while before hitting it, or it will explode!"
"..."
In the fort, the artillerymen of the Liberation Army complained to Li Guangyuan together.
Li Guangyuan nodded and asked.
"What happened to the Folan cannon?"
replied the gunner.
"The Folan machine can't be fired anymore. We have to take a rest and let the barrel cool down a little!"
Li Guangyuan nodded and said.
"Okay, let the artillery rest first!"
"It's not like our Liberation Army can't fight without artillery!"
He turned around and walked out of the fort, climbed onto the city wall and personally directed the battle.
"Bring up two boxes of Thunderbolts, just in case!"
"The musketeers are ready to shoot, and the sword and shield soldiers are all armored and ready to fight in hand-to-hand combat!"
Li Guangyuan gave orders in an orderly manner.
The Liberation Army was still making preparations to engage the enemy, and the indigenous attack came.
A large area of black people rushed toward the bastion one after another.
"Do not shoot without permission!"
"Wait until the enemy enters thirty meters, then use three rows of rounds to fire!"
Li Guangyuan opened his mouth and ordered.
…
The natives charged forward with their heads down, quickly approaching the bastion of the Liberation Army.
However, what surprised them was that as soon as they entered the bastion within two to three hundred meters, the bastion fort would open fire.
However, they had already entered this distance at this time, and the bastion was quiet.
The natives felt very strange and felt uneasy.
I don’t know what the Liberation Army is doing over there!
The current mentality of these natives is like waiting for the second boot to fall from upstairs.
We have become accustomed to the sound of artillery fire from the Liberation Army, but now that we can't hear the sound of artillery fire, everyone feels unsure!
"Attack, continue the attack!"
"Charge at full speed!"
"While those Chinese are not firing, hurry up!"
"..."
The leading natives kept giving orders, directing their men to charge.
The natives are charging faster and faster!
Colonel Robin looked in the direction of the bastion, but he was making plans in his mind.
The natives were confused as to why the Liberation Army did not fire artillery, but Robin had some guesses as to why.
It's probably because the gun body is overheated and needs to be cooled down!
Don't ask Robin how he knew!
The question is that the Spanish also faced the same problem. After the artillery fired continuously for a period of time, they also had to stop and cool down.
However, the Spanish gunners were much more experienced than the cannons of the Liberation Army, and they knew that the artillery should be fired intermittently when firing.
All the artillery fire takes turns, and each gun must fire and rest to ensure uninterrupted firepower delivery!
But the artillerymen of the Liberation Army did not know this. When they saw the enemy coming up, all the artillery fired at full strength. The enemy did not retreat and the gunfire continued.
Of course, there is also the reason why the Liberation Army does not have enough artillery!
Robin thought for a while and then gave instructions to his adjutant.
"Rogeroff, you personally lead five hundred musketeers forward to cover the Pampanga people's attack on the city!"
"The Chinese artillery can't fire now. We attack with all our strength now. Maybe we can break the city!"
Rodger made a military salute and said.
"yes!"
After that, he ordered five hundred musketeers, including one hundred pure-blooded Spanish whites, and the remaining one hundred mixed-bloods.
The Spanish musketeers advanced and formed into the river valley.
…
On the other side, after the natives entered a range of thirty meters, the musketeers of the Liberation Army opened fire.
Bang! Bang bang! Bang bang bang!
The sound of gunshots rang out in unison, and the smoke filled the air. A large number of the natives who were rushing to the front fell down in unison.
"Keep playing!"
The musketeers of the Liberation Army fired three rows of rounds in an orderly manner, with neat movements and no trace of panic.
