When Jier'an and General Bolu led their troops to Mingcheng, it was already the third evening.

Looking at Mingcheng, which had already cleared the walls, General Bolu was overjoyed.

What he was most worried about along the way was that the Ming people in the city fled without fighting.

It would be better if he didn't escape. After conquering Ming City, he would have the gold, silver and treasures of the entire city.

Because it was dusk, Bolu still suppressed his anxiety and ordered the soldiers to camp in the rain forest several miles away.

Not long afterwards, three hundred Spanish soldiers arrived late.

They did not choose to build a camp together, and the Spaniards chose to camp in a hill two miles away from Mingcheng.

The two armies are not subordinate to each other, and the liaison between the two armies is conveyed by the Spanish township chiefs in the tribe.

When the Shengfan soldiers arrived in Mingcheng, the atmosphere in Mingcheng became particularly tense. The city walls and the streets were filled with Ming soldiers garrisoned and patrolled.

Since it is a coastal defense fortress, Mingcheng is relatively small and only has four gates, which makes the Ming army a blessing in disguise and can calmly arrange all the artillery that is not rich.

The chief general Huang Liangji and the King of Lu personally guarded the east gate, the deputy general Li Daoan guarded the north gate, and Xiao Ke guarded the south gate. As for the west gate, Liu Quan was guarded by the sea because he was backed by the sea.

The next morning, King Zhu Honghuan of Lu resolutely climbed to the head of the East Gate.

He was seen wearing a gold-plated guardian's head with six-ding and six-petal bright iron helmet, wearing a decorative auspicious and bright light chest mirror, holding a musket, standing above the head of the East Gate city.

This dressing boosted the morale of the Ming army soldiers.

Even the Ming prince climbed the city to share life and death with them. What reason do the Ming soldiers present do not fight hard?

"The Ming Dynasty is mighty."

"The Ming King is mighty."

"Long live the Ming King."

The soldiers shouted in unison, each ready to fight to the death with Shengfan.

Under the escort of personal soldiers, Liu Yu walked to Huang Liangji.

"General Huang, can the firearms defending the city be prepared?"

"Don't worry, the six Folang machine cannons and two red cannons are all ready, and the heavy muskets are loaded."

"As for rolling wood, stones have also been transported to the city."

Liu Yu, who had just arrived from the West Gate, nodded with satisfaction when he saw this.

The most dangerous thing about Shengfan's siege is the east gate and the west gate.

As a powerful general, Liu Quan's soldiers under his command were relieved to have experienced many battles.

As for the Ming army, which had prepared excellent artillery in the East Gate, it should not be a problem to resist Shengfan's attack.

Looking at the Ming army's flag on the city wall not far away, Bo Lu's blood was boiling, and he felt that the glorious achievements of his ancestors would reappear again.

"Order the army to attack, and we have breakfast in Mingcheng."

Regardless of the fact that the foreign soldiers were already exhausted after several days of long journey, Bolu drew out his battle knife and directed the soldiers to attack the city immediately.

It’s not that he is arrogant, after all, in his eyes, there is no difference between a wise man and a sheep.

When the Luzon Ming people rebelled, they gathered more than 10,000 troops to kill the city of Manila. His grandfather led only 800 Bangbonya warriors and Spanish troops to kill the more than 10,000 Ming troops.

This time, I just moved the battlefield from Manila to Mingcheng. Do you really think that with an abandoned coastal battle city and a mere 1,000 Ming army, I want to block his Bolu's horse hooves?

"Warriors, kill."

"The whole city's gold, silver and treasures are waiting for you."

Under Bo Lu's order, the already exhausted soldiers of the Shengfan were vigorously motivated, waving their scimitars and rushing towards Mingcheng with their short bows.

Watching a group of unfaithful life soldiers rushing towards Mingcheng.

Major Gil'an shook his head.

"School officer, our artillery has not yet been in place. Should these indigenous soldiers temporarily stop attacking?" A lieutenant spoke beside Jill's side.

"No need." Major Ji'an waved.

"Let the grenadiers assist the artillery to transport six nine-pound artillery to the high ground, and the musketeers remain unmoved for the time being."

"As for Mingcheng, let these indigenous soldiers test our firepower."

For the siege, the siege always suffers from the loss. Tajir's wife did not dare to spend the Spanish soldiers on such fearless charges. After all, the Spanish soldiers are much more precious than these indigenous people.

This time the siege must be dominated by indigenous soldiers. If he really threw the Spanish soldiers onto the battlefield and was bombarded by the Ming army, it is estimated that Governor Juan would be able to cut him alive after he returned.

Let the Bangbangya people under General Bolu go to these businesses of death.

Anyway, the indigenous soldiers would have as many as possible. Even if they died, Jill'an didn't care.

General Bolu also knew this very well.

Seeing that the Spanish were still holding their troops, they clearly wanted to be a spectator. General Bolu was angry and came to him.

But he didn't dare to point at Jier'an and curse, so he had to pour his anger on Ming Jun.

Soon the vanguard troops rushed to the effective range of the Ming army artillery.

I saw the soldiers wearing vine armor carrying wooden boards and rushing towards the city walls on a ladder.

As long as you pass through the Ming army's arrow rain, throw the wooden boards into the moat, and step over them, you can set up a wooden ladder.

These veteran soldiers have experienced many conflicts between tribes, and they calmly rushed towards the city wall.

Unfortunately, their so-called war was just a small fight between tribes, but today they met the Ming army.

In an instant, the land collapsed and the earth broke.

A large number of cannons, muskets,

A large number of shells, lead shells, and arrows shot towards the soldiers like heavy rain.

A shell landed hundreds of steps away, and instantly overturned several soldiers, and together with the wooden ladder, exploded into several pieces and flew into the sky.

"ah."

Several soldiers of the Shengfan were shot by the dense rain of arrows, and the arrows were pierced all over their bodies. They screamed in a shrill voice and died.

"Don't be messy, rush forward."

A sergeant general called out,

Suddenly a lead bomb flew over,

The sergeant's vine shield was beaten into pieces in an instant.

Before the sergeant could feel pain in his hands, the lead bullet fragments had already penetrated the vine armor and penetrated into his abdominal cavity.

He was about to shout,

I saw red blood constantly overflowing from the corners of my mouth and finally fell to the ground.

As the Shengfan soldiers approached, even the heavy muskets on the city opened fire.

"put!"

With the roar of a co-sponsor,

On the city tower, a row of turtle dove-legged guns roared in unison, and wisps of smoke rose.

This bird gun was imitated by the heavy mesh gun of the Folang Jiren to resist the Later Jin Dynasty.

It can shoot through plate armor at close range and cotton armor or wooden boards at long distances. It is a powerful tool specially used to deal with the Eight Banners Cavalry.

Because it is too heavy and difficult to carry, and requires a wooden frame to be installed to launch, it is quite troublesome to use, but it has also exerted its amazing power in this kind of city defense battle.

Rows of heavy lead bullets knocked a Shengfan soldier wearing vine armor to the ground. Not far away, the Ming army was rushing arrows, and the Shengfan soldiers were complaining.

The strong bows used by the Ming army were much more powerful than the short bows used by the soldiers of the Xianfan.

The Ming army's strong bow can reach a range of 100 steps, and the foreign soldiers are often shot down before they even pull the bow.
