Chapter 35: Planning
Looking at Liu Quan's hideous face, Liu Yu remained silent for a long time.
He also knew what kind of catastrophe the Tartars were for the Han people.
Looking at the Ming soldiers passing by on the streets and the trepidated Luzon Han people, an unknown feeling surged in my heart.
"Han hair cannot be broken, and Hanfu cannot be destroyed." He said in his heart.
"Anti-Qing," Liu Yu murmured,
"Okay, uncle is going to go to Ximen to inspect," Liu Quan regained his sanity.
"I heard you gathered the Folang machine artillery." Liu Quan asked.
"Yes." Liu Yu nodded.
In fact, during the court meeting, he did not mention this matter to Li Daoan and King Lu.
"I have informed General Li of the surrender of the Folang machine artillery, and General Li has also acquiesced to your behavior." Liu Quandao.
Liu Yu was stunned and then said:
"So, if you form Huben Town, you can incorporate these Folang Jimen into it."
Liu Quan didn't say anything, just nodded.
He had no good feelings for these Flangji people.
In fact, among the soldiers in Mingcheng, there was a hint of contempt for these Florians.
"You kid, you have to train me with the Shenji Association," Liu Quan patted Liu Yu on the shoulder and walked towards the Ximen City Wall with a smile.
Looking at his uncle who was getting farther away, Liu Yu continued to wander aimlessly in the city.
The streets were filled with Ming soldiers drinking and having fun.
And now Mingcheng is immersed in the joy of victory in the war, and seems to have forgotten the bloody storm before.
Except for some of the Chinese Luzon who were worried about anxiety, most of the people on the entire street fell into madness.
Drinking and gambling are endless.
The Ming soldiers who had just driven away Shengfan and Folang Jiren naturally needed to vent their emotions, which was understandable.
Even the generals were drinking and swearing and pushing each other.
"Folang Jiren is just like that,"
A kind of arrogance was plunged into the hearts of the generals in Mingcheng.
At the previous court meeting, many of the rewarded generals threatened to attack Manila.
Even the lords like Li Daoan advised Zhu Honghuan to attack Manila.
A night attack was a desperate battle, and by chance,
A difficult battle made the Ming army soldiers think it was a matter of course.
Only the Ming army soldiers who had experienced that war knew the difficulties and the power of the war, with the Flangers and the firearms and equipment.
But for these generals, they didn't care about these.
They just sighed for not participating in the battle to defeat the Florenceman.
It seems that defeating Folangjiren is an extremely relaxing thing.
Liu Yu was not surprised by the ideas of these generals.
Because the so-called bright
The so-called Ming generals are actually just a group of mobs.
Naturally, there is no understanding of the Western colonists entrenched in the South China Sea.
In the seventeenth century, Europe had long surpassed the medieval East in military terms.
After experiencing the Battle of Mingcheng, Liu Yu firmly believed in this.
Attacking Manila is like seeking death.
It can be seen from the Battle of Jaquessa in history.
As early as the first half of the 17th century, Tsarist Russia repeatedly invaded the Heilongjiang region.
From Shunzhi to Kangxi, there were more than once clashes between the Qing Dynasty and Tsarist Russia.
This is also one of the rare face-to-face confrontations between China and the West.
The battle to recapture Yaquesa City, which took place in the 24th year of Kangxi, is already very telling.
In order to completely solve the Tsarist Russian issue, Kangxi mobilized the financial and material resources of the north, and after clearing the Tsarist Russian strongholds around the city of Yaquesa, he formally attacked the city of Yaquesa in 1685.
Thousands of elite Tartars besieged a city of Yaquesa, which was only simple to build and was defended by more than 800 Tsarist Russian invaders.
After fighting for several months, the Russian army in the end was unable to hold on and was forced to withdraw.
You should know that the attack on Yaxa was the Tartars outside the Qing Dynasty.
These Tartars outside the pass are not comparable to those who have corrupted the Eight Banners soldiers who entered the pass and moved south.
Unlike the Eight Banners soldiers who entered the pass gradually became corrupt and fell into the peaceful and prosperous era of singing and dancing, the Jurchens outside the pass still lived in a bitter and cold place, so they still retained their fierce and cruel spirit of enduring hardship.
It can be said that the Tartars outside the pass were an important source of troops for the reorganization of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty.
But that's it, in front of the whole country's strength, in front of the Eight Banners Army formed by the Tartar soldiers outside the pass,
The Qing army attacked twice in a row, and finally paid huge casualties and manpower to capture the city of Yaquesa.
Jaxas is just a small town, with Tsarist Russian military strength of only more than 800 people, and most of them are not really soldiers.
Compared with the carefully constructed and built by the Spanish, Manila City, which had thousands of Spanish colonial troops and mercenaries, Jaxa can be said to be a slim figure.
What should I use to attack Manila with Ming's troops and supplies, let alone the navy led by Xiao Wu has not returned yet.
Even Liu Yu was very worried about the next encirclement of the Spaniards.
After all, the Spanish Navy has not yet appeared.
During the Battle of Mingcheng, the Spanish army carried only six nine-pound squad cannons, and they almost lost Mingcheng.
If the transportation capacity issue is not the case, the Manila authorities cannot retrieve heavy artillery from the Spanish colonial army stationed in Manila, then the Spanish navy has no such problem at all.
There is no need to mobilize troops. An armed Garen ship is enough to carry dozens of artillery pieces, and there are some heavy artillery over fifteen pounds.
If such a ship appears in the waters outside Mingcheng, there is no possibility of Mingcheng defending it.
Therefore, Luzon is definitely not a place to live for a long time.
For Ming Dynasty, there was only one way to destroy Luzon.
The Spanish would never allow a regime like Ming to stay on Luzon Island, and would inevitably send more military forces to encircle Ming.
After all, Spain had worked with the Ming court to wipe out the pirates who invaded Luzon, and such things were familiar to them.
"I guess Kangxi is still having a headache for the Tsarist Russia that invaded Heilongjiang." Liu Yu murmured.
For Ming, there is actually a possibility of a turnaround.
It is now the 22nd year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, and the border conflict between the Qing Dynasty and Tsarist Russia in the Heilongjiang River Basin had already broken out.
The Qing court had already focused on the outside of the pass.
In the northwest of the Qing Dynasty, the Junggar Khanate was also eyeing it.
I don’t have much energy to focus on the south, especially in the Jiangnan region.
For the Qing court, Jiangnan was not in chaos, and it was already a blessing to be able to collect taxes.
This is also the reason why Xiao Wu and his group could not escape Luzon, and the Qing court has not taken action yet.
The Qing court also did not have the ability to pay attention to the Nanyang issue when there were such huge external troubles in the north.
