While the Chen family was desperately trying to prevent the indigenous people from attacking the city wall, bursts of gunfire suddenly sounded outside.
Chen Jiarong climbed up the city wall and took a look. It turned out that the Spanish army was dispatched. They lined up neatly and moved forward while firing guns.
However, these natives were now a little crazy, and they rushed towards the Spanish army with all kinds of weapons.
Although the Spanish army caused a large number of casualties to the natives, due to the small number of people, the Spanish army was soon surrounded and became a lonely boat in the ocean.
Finally, when Chen Jiarong saw this situation, he hurriedly opened the door, sent a group of troops to break through the siege, and brought the Spaniards into the castle.
The reason why Chen Jiarong wanted to save these Spanish people was because he saw that these Spanish people were also here to save them. If they were brought to the castle, they would be able to have more strength to resist the natives who came to attack the castle.
Sure enough, with the arrival of the Spanish army, the castle's defense became solid again, and the natives were repelled by Spanish volleys several times.
Currently, there are not many Spanish Army deployments in Manila. With the madness of the indigenous people, these few troops were already in dire straits and soon had to withdraw from the chaotic area and return to the white areas for defense.
By this time, the natives no longer cared about Chinese or white people. They wanted to rob women as long as they were money, and they wanted to have sex with women.
The white Spanish did not expect that the indigenous people would attack them, so they were not prepared at all. Coupled with the defeat of the Spanish army, the white area soon fell.
Only then did the Spanish Governor Davide realize that something was wrong, and at the same time he already felt that his official position could no longer be saved.
But now is not the time to think about this. These indigenous people must be driven back first. Otherwise, if they go out to engage in massacre during the day, even if he is dismissed, he may not be able to escape the assassination of the white people who have lost their relatives.
So now that the army in Manila is weak, he asked for help from the Spanish Army outside the city. At the same time, he sent people in small boats to request artillery fire from the Nanyang Navy of the Qing Empire outside the city. He used artillery to block the dialogue between the indigenous people.
Reinforcements for the man zone attack.
Liu Hai was originally preparing to bombard the Spanish city of Manila, but suddenly received a report from the messenger he sent. The Spanish governor expressed great sadness and regret for the indigenous people's attack on South China, but now the city of Manila is in chaos.
, even the white area was under attack, and he really couldn't escape.
The governor asked Liu Hai to attack the indigenous people outside the white area to prevent them from continuing to reinforce the bandits in the white area.
After hearing this, Liu Hai sneered. This was the other person shooting himself in the foot.
For the white people, Liu Hai did not intend to take care of the chaos. Instead, he ordered the warships to move to the Chinese area and carry out large-scale bombing of the indigenous people outside the Chinese area. As for the gangsters in the Chinese area, Liu Hai was helpless because he was afraid of accidentally injuring his own people.
, so I dare not fire.
Following Liu Hai's order, the four 305mm cannons on the Jiangxi began to roar, and the three 220mm cannons on the Jiangsu also began to bombard.
In addition to these giant cannons, various artillery pieces from other warships also began to attack non-stop.
As the cannons of these eight warships fired in unison, the indigenous residential area outside the Chinese Quarter immediately turned into a sea of fire, and the place became a mess.
When the natives in the Chinese area heard the sound of cannons behind them and saw that it was the cannons bombarding their residential areas, they immediately dispersed and went back secretly to see how their families were doing.
However, their retreat further increased their casualties. As they entered the indigenous gathering area, Liu Hai's cannons sent these people to the west one by one.
With the retreat of the indigenous people and the entry of the Spanish army outside the city, the turmoil finally subsided this time.
As a result, the Spanish Governor David had cleaned up his losses after the incident, but he was still very angry.
This time, the city of Manila was almost in ruins, especially in the white area, where there were even more casualties. Nearly 2,000 Spanish women were insulted, more than a thousand Spaniards were killed, and countless treasures were robbed.
.
Seeing this kind of loss, David knew that if he did not take action, when the news came to Spain, he would have to go to a military court.
So the governor immediately ordered the Spanish army that entered the city to clear out the indigenous people in the city. All Filipino indigenous people were regarded as bandits.
These Spanish soldiers who entered the city were already furious when they saw the miserable situation of the white people in the city. Now they finally got the order from the governor, so these people started to vent their anger like madmen.
They surrounded the entire aboriginal gathering area, and then advanced layer by layer. All the women were locked aside, and the other old people, children, and strong men were all executed.
This massacre lasted for three days. Almost all the natives in Manila were killed. Except for 10,000 to 20,000 Filipino native women who were left as military prostitutes because of their youth, there was no one left alive.
In the past few days, Liu Hai's warship has been lingering outside Manila Port and has not strayed far away.
Because Liu Hai knew that once the massacre started, people would become crazy. If the Spanish soldiers could not control themselves and attacked the Chinese, they would need their own fleet.
At that time, Liu Hai could justifiably bombard the Spanish Army, sobering them up, and at the same time venting the bad breath in their hearts.
But Liu Hai was disappointed this time. Perhaps these Spanish Army personnel knew that there were warships of the Qing Empire lingering outside the port, and they had no offense to the Chinese area. This made Liu Hai's revenge plan completely in vain.
The turmoil lasted for about seven days before it completely subsided.
After the war subsided, the city of Manila was almost in ruins. The area where the indigenous people gathered was now completely deserted, and there were dead bodies everywhere.
After everything calmed down, Spanish Governor David came to the dock in person to express his gratitude to the Nanyang Navy led by Liu Hai.
In fact, David's coming over to thank Liu Hai was just a pretense. He thought that by getting rid of this plague god quickly, he would be able to relax and deal with matters in the Philippines.
Otherwise, this fleet would have been wandering around the port of Manila in Mali. No matter what he did, he would feel uncomfortable and be afraid of a sudden attack by this fleet at any time.
After David and Liu Hai met, they opened their mouths with a series of thanks, as if without Liu Hai and the others, all the Spaniards would have been killed.
Liu Hai, on the other hand, was also talking nonsense and accepted the other person's gratitude completely, as if he was really the savior.
The performance of these two people made all the subordinates feel a little admired. No wonder the two of them can become officials. With their ability to speak, these officers below are ashamed of themselves.
Davel and Liu Hai complimented each other on the bow of the boat for a while, and then Davel brought the topic to the right track.
"Liu Tidu has been staying near Manila for a long time. I don't know when he will continue to go south."
Liu Hai smiled "hum hum", he wanted to drive me away now. It's not that easy without getting some benefits, so I just left. Wasn't this trip in vain?
"Oh, Lord Governor, you don't know. This time I came to Nanyang and realized that this place is really chaotic. Our people of the Qing Dynasty can be in danger at any time here, so I want to stay for a while.
"
Oops, I don’t want to leave, but I’ve already come, how can I let you stay here. So David continued: “Admiral Liu, Manila is calm now, and all the bandits have been eliminated.
, I think the residents in the city are very safe. As subjects of Spain, His Majesty the King will definitely protect their safety."
"Haha, Lord Governor, are you kidding me? Our Qing fleet can cause such big turmoil even outside and inside the harbor. If I leave, won't all these Chinese people suffer?"
"Admiral Liu, I hope you will consider the diplomacy between the two countries. If you continue to stay here, I'm afraid I will have to lodge a protest with your country through the embassy."
Seeing the threatening tone of the other party, Liu Hai simply put the other party aside, ignored him, and went inside to enjoy Chen Yuting's tenderness.
When David saw his bangs fluttering away, he really had nothing to do with the young admiral. So he could only go back to his Governor's Mansion dejectedly.
Due to the turmoil in Manila, the Spanish suffered huge losses, and soon the news reached Madrid, the capital of Spain, via telegraph.
The dignitaries in Madrid were furious when they heard that such a thing could happen in the colony, so they kept sending telegrams to the Spanish colony of the Philippines, asking the Philippine Governor David to execute these indigenous people immediately, otherwise there would be unrest.
Send him to a military court.
David is really in a dilemma now. You said you should send troops to wipe out the indigenous people. Liu Hai's fleet is still hanging around outside the harbor. Once Manila's defenses are relaxed and Liu Hai's fleet suddenly attacks, Spain will be lost in Asia.
largest colony?
If we don't send troops, the parliament is pressing too hard, and if this continues, we will really have to go to a military court.
So Dai Weier could only find his own staff to discuss how to get the Qing Nanyang Navy to leave Manila.
Finally, someone gave him an idea. Didn't the Chen family give a daughter to Liu Hai? Let the Chen family go and find out what the other party's conditions are. If they can agree, give Liu Hai some benefits and quickly get rid of this plague god.
Send them away so that they can carry out domestic orders and wipe out the indigenous people.
