The sea breeze is gentle.

The golden sunlight spreads on the blue sea, as if it is covered with golden powder.

After leaving Bambu, the fleet took a day to arrive at Manila, the capital of Luzon.

"Miao An and Niu Qiang don't know if they can do it, so don't cause trouble." On the flagship deck, Song Xiang and Zhou Yi stood side by side, holding a telescope in their hands and observing the Manila port.

Song Xiang couldn't help asking at this time.

If you do not attack Manila, this supply point of Bambu is still very important.

Zhou Yi smiled, knowing that the generals must be confused about him handing over Bamb to Miao An and Niu Qiang.

So he explained, "They do things under the Marines' noses. If they are apart from the wrong things, the Marines will understand and save them in time."

After pausing, he continued, "The main problem is that according to Your Highness's intention, we need to cultivate some young and motivated overseas Song people, which will be of great benefit to Dasong's control of the entire southern region in the future."

Song Xiang nodded when he heard this.

He was a pure naval general who was responsible for fighting only.

However, their General Zhou Yi and the King of Yan considered more issues.

After the two said that, they looked at Manila again.

Unlike the unprepared Bambu, the Folangji defenders in Manila were obviously warned.

The merchant ships and warships at the dock disappeared, but the turrets on the dock flashed.

"Folangji soldiers who escaped from Bambu brought the news of Bambu's capture here." Zhou Yi's lips raised, "Hehe, let them spend the next days in horror."

Immediately, he ordered the warships to surround the entire Manila port and wait for changes at sea.

at the same time.

There were also eyes staring at the Dasong fleet in a fortress at Manila.

These eyes belong to Ferrero, Governor of Ferro.

At this moment, he was wearing a military uniform, a sailboat cap, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Damn it, is this bastard Mafuer an idiot? Why did the Da Song fleet appear here?" Ferrero kept cursing.

After celebrating the capture of Yizhou by King Yan, he felt that the position of Folangji Governor in Luzon was so thumping.

At that time, news of the fall of Yizhou came, so he immediately built fortifications in Manila and immediately sent a warship to send the news back to the Folang machine.

At the same time, he actively contacted the Stedeans, Britons and Franks, hoping to get support.

Fortunately, Britain's Governor Bolt chose to support him.

The four countries formed a small joint fleet in the eastern Tunan region to patrol the sea area and protect their colonies.

In this quasi-war state, they actively prepared for the war and spent ten months.

Finally the joint fleet arrived.

The Flang Machine sent 18 sailing warships and 10,000 soldiers in China.

Manila was also provided with a large number of muskets and cannons to arm their indigenous army in Luzon.

They originally had 20,000 soldiers in Luzon.

This has brought the total force of Flangji in the East to 30,000.

The number of warships has also expanded from eight to twenty-six.

However, the supported forces must now obey the coalition command.

But even so, he felt at ease.

The coalition forces promised to protect the interests of the Western Turkish countries in the Eastern Turkish countries, which naturally also included Flangji's.

With the backing of a powerful coalition, they finally had a safe sleep at night.

However, he never expected that just as the coalition navy was about to deceive the Dasong fleet to go to Morro Island.

The Dasong fleet appeared here.

The day before yesterday, he even captured the small town of Bambu, the northernmost end of Luzon.

"I hope these bastards from the coalition and Navy can come quickly." Ferrero cursed again.

He did not foolishly leave eight sailing warships stationed in Manila.

Instead, let them pass through the central Luzon, which is spread all over the island, and go from there to the direction of Morro, looking for the coalition navy.

"God bless them not to attack immediately." Ferrero muttered again when he saw that the Dasong Navy had just besieged the port and did not take action immediately.

He believed that the Da Song fleet must be waiting for the arrival of more soldiers.

After all, according to his observation, Dasong's troop transport ship seemed to be loading many soldiers.

After a little calming, he patrols the trenches excavated along the Manila port.

In addition to the vigilant Folangji soldiers in the trench, there were also Luzon native troops wearing gray military uniforms.

Like Stedam, Britain, and Frank.

After conquering the countries in the eastern and southern regions, they all made the same decision.

It is to form an indigenous army on the basis of our king's army to maintain their colonial rule over the southern countries.

This is because the Southern Region is just one of their colonies and can only maintain a small number of troops.

But to rule such a large country, it is obvious that these troops are far from enough.

As a result, all colonies, including the eastern Tumen, southern territory, had a small number of Western Tumen's army leading a large number of indigenous troops.

He had never taken these indigenous armies seriously before.

But now, he is very glad that Luzon still has an indigenous army of 80,000 people.

In order to make these indigenous troops follow them to resist the King of Yan.

During this period, he not only improved the treatment of indigenous soldiers, but also promised many benefits to indigenous officials and generals.

Even the Luzon King Baduge, who was implicated by them, agreed.

As long as he can use the influence of the king to inspire the Luzons and Folangji to work together to resist Dasong, he will give the royal family more preferential treatment.

After reviewing the Florence soldiers and indigenous soldiers, Ferrero felt more at ease.

Asking his subordinate colonel to stare at the Dasong fleet, he returned to the Governor's Mansion.

...

At this moment, in the East Luzon waters, eight Flang warships were heading towards Morro Island.

In their northeast direction, a steamboat also rushed to Morro Island at its greatest speed.

This steamship was the steamship that encountered the Dasong battleship in the south sea of ​​Yizhou.

After three days of sailing, the steamboat arrived at the port of Morro Island.

The news was delivered to Mafuer, who was waiting for the news on Morro Island.

"The Dasong Fleet is rushing to Luzon?" Ma Fuer's face changed when he received the news, and he immediately spread out a sloppy sea chart to mark the position of the Dasong Fleet.

"We have released enough traces during this period to show that we are in the east, which is really strange." General Sam's Country Powell was very puzzled.

"There are two possibilities: their naval generals are too stupid, or they deliberately disrupt our steps and force us to fight them." Mafuer pondered for a while and said slowly.
