(Today I read the question raised by book friends about the battle of Manila by reading the number. I want to say, I was wrong. Indeed, the Ming army should use the high-speed maneuverability of their warships to continuously attack Dance's fleet on the sea, rather than put them on the coastline. In this way, the Ming army actually lost their greatest advantage, that is, a wave of attacks. Dance's fleet, who suffered losses, would inevitably give up the direct contest with the other side and choose to abandon the ship and go ashore. This would cause great damage to Manila, because the strength of the Manila Army was relatively weak at this time. Next, the gunmen would try their best to save it, and only make Manila unlucky again.)

Qin Li stood at the bow of the first warship, letting the sea breeze blow his clothes high. After several years of going out to sea, he was almost skinny and bone-skinned, which made him look even more elated, as if he could rise with the wind at any time.

In recent years, he has suffered too much, experienced the warmth and coldness of the world and countless life dangers, but he finally succeeded. Thousands of warships from the Tiger Dynasty and nearly 200,000 fully armed soldiers rushed to the east, and the Manila waters are facing a catastrophe.

The Ming people would never give up a natural place like Manila to block Westerners. If they give up here, their local area would have to face the attack directly. Such a situation was obviously not what the Ming people wanted. If they want to resist the attack of the Tiger Dynasty, they would involve all the navy forces of the Ming army, and even some land forces.

Even if the Ming navy was launched together, how many warships could there be? After going to the Western Continent, Qin Li learned just now that what a real maritime power looked like. It was often a sea battle of hundreds or hundreds of warships, which made people dazzled. He thought that Da Qi was at a loss when he was forced to his feet by twenty or thirty warships in the Ming Dynasty.

In front of the navy of the Tiger Dynasty, the Ming people's maritime power was probably vulnerable, but the Ming people's combat effectiveness on land was still considerable. In the sea area of ​​Manila, there would inevitably be a battle between dragons and tigers.

He doesn't care who wins and loses at all. The only thing he wants is to add fuel to the fire. It's best to make both sides form a hatred that can never be resolved, and to make them never have the possibility of reconciliation. That's the best.

Without the involvement of the Ming people's navy, it would even mobilize the Ming people's land power, which would allow the Qi people to gain an absolute advantage in the subsequent battle against the Ming Kingdom.

I didn't go this trip in vain.

Yangang had already shown a contour in front of him. So far, they had not encountered a Mingren warship. As expected, the Mingren could only concentrate all their strength to face one of the Yuanpian troops of the Tiger Dynasty. If what they expected was good, they might have been fighting in Manila at this time.

Yangang is an important base for the Ming people and an important port for them to transport supplies. More than 90% of the island are Ming people. Qin Li planned to create a tragic massacre here and kill all the Ming people here. This has nothing to do with whether he has human nature, but he felt that it was necessary to do so. Ming people attached great importance to their own lives. If the people of the Tiger Dynasty created a bloody crime here, then even if Qin Feng wanted to reconcile with the Tiger Dynasty next, the people of the Ming Dynasty would not agree, right?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but laugh. This characteristic of Ming people was cultivated by Qin Feng. Let him be tied up now.

"General Mattus, this is the most important port for the Ming people. Here, there is a storage of countless grains and weapons. This is also a transit station for Ming merchants' commodities and a concentration of wealth. If you take this place, you will become the richest grand duke of the Tiger Dynasty." Looking at a general who was just in his prime and almost half a head taller than him, Qin Li said with a flattering smile.

The proficient common language of the Tiger Dynasty was already mastered in the second year after Qin Li arrived at the Tiger Dynasty. He seemed to have the talent to learn languages. Whether he was learning the language of barbarians from the barbarians or traveling around the world, he could always use false and real dialects from different places.

The general called Mattus was a grand duke from a powerful city-state in the Tiger Dynasty, and was also one of the most fierce local generals under Dance. If he had strength and ability, he would naturally have ambitions. If he went to war, he would naturally not leave him in his hometown.

In addition to Mattus's direct troops attacking Yangang, there were also some small city-state troops with medium strength, hundreds of warships, and more than 50,000 soldiers. For a small port like Yangang, it does not seem to be a big deal.

"After going to the island, all but women will die." Mattus licked his lips. Even in the battle of unification of the Tiger Dynasty, Mattus was a type of general who was particularly slaughtered.

"Of course, only by killing all their men can those wealth truly belong to you, Grand Duke." Qin Li said with a smile.

"Then kill them all." Mattus laughed and patted Qin Li on the shoulder hard, "Qin, you are a capable person. If you are willing to follow me in the future, I think you can get unexpected benefits. I have no shortage of warriors who can fight, but there is a lack of a person who engages in conspiracy and tricks. I think you are very suitable."

Qin Li laughed, but did not answer.

"Qin, I hate your smile the most. When you smile like this, you don't really agree with it, right?" Mattus sneered: "Thirty years Hedong, Thirty years Hexi, this is what you said? I know what you are thinking in your heart? Yes, His Majesty Dansi is a talented person, but how long can he live when he is old? And I am only in my early forties."

He patted Qin Li on the shoulder hard and turned around and walked away. Looking at his back, Qin Li's smile became stronger. This person was not as rude as he looked, but it was still far from Dance. He was still thinking about returning to his ancient land and waiting for Danxi to die before he could do a great job. But in Qin Li's opinion, if Danxi wins in this struggle, a person like Mattus will definitely be used by Danxi as a front drive and continues to attack the Ming Dynasty's local area until he exhausts his last bit of strength. If Danxi fails?

Since even Dance failed, how could a person like Mattus go back alive?

The huge fleet was anchored on the sea, and a small fleet of small boats broke out and headed towards Yangang, which was close to him. Mattus was definitely a careful person in the battle.

The once lively Yangang is now like a dead land. Apart from the steel and concrete houses standing tall, there is no living person.

But Qin Li obviously did not think that the Ming people had given up Yangang. In fact, this was a place that could not be given up at all. Yangang was not big, but it guarded the Ming people's passage to Manila's waters. If they gave up here, the Ming people were like cutting off their own arm.

Qin Li believes that although the Ming people gave up the battle with Mattus at sea, it will inevitably be an extremely cruel and bloody battle on land.

The small fleet slowly approached the dock, and the Ming people did not even do the most basic thing to destroy the dock. The perfect port facilities here in Yangang were enough to allow any large ship to easily moor and land.

Teams of soldiers got off the warship along the springboard, hugged their waists and quickly passed through the pier of the air mine, and headed towards the city ahead. Mattus and Qin Li both narrowed their eyes and looked into the distance.

After a stick of incense, the team disappeared into the house. After a moment, several wild dogs barked and ran out from behind the houses. Behind them, a soldier was waving his flags hard at the fleet on the sea.

"No resistance?" Mattus was very surprised, "Have they given up here?"

"No, Grand Duke, I believe that there must be a hidden enemy army here. What they gave up or were just a dock. You must know that at this distance, the long-range weapons on the warships are enough to cover that area. They just don't want to be beaten." Qin Li shook his head and said.

Mattus laughed and said, "Silly Mingren, can you avoid my violent blow by giving up this area? Whether it is a powerful crossbow or a catapult on the ship, it can be dismantled."

The entire fleet began to move towards Yangang, but this time the marching was more than ten troop transport ships. Mattus was preparing to throw thousands of soldiers into the port and build a complete offensive base, and then the large army followed one after another.

In this way, in the tallest building in the distance, Yu Rongguang (who confuses his name with Wang Xianrong in Chapter 1915). He was holding a telescope, looking at the soldiers of the Tiger Dynasty landing on the pier and the dense ships on the sea in the distance. To be honest, even if he had the belief in winning, his whole body was numb at this moment.

There are really many enemies!

How many people did he have in Yangang? One thousand soldiers of Ruijin Camp, three thousand recruited veterans, and thousands of reserve teams. The combat effectiveness of those reserve teams is negligible. Most of them are locals and merchants who refuse to leave before the war. The merchants of the Ming Dynasty have always been very brave and have been determined to make a fortune with the Ming army. Wherever there is the Ming army, they will be there. Before the war, Yu Rongguang had persuaded many merchants who had already achieved success and fame to leave.

They no longer need to risk their lives to obtain wealth. As long as they develop step by step, they can slowly accumulate more wealth. However, they cannot resist more of the small businessmen who are working hard. They have to stay in Yangang no matter how they persuade them. Yu Rongguang can only form a reserve team first, and each person is wearing armor, a spear, and a knife to defend themselves. Their more tasks are not to fight, but to do some auxiliary work.

In Yangang, it can be said that the whole people are soldiers. Anyone who stays here, even women, is fully armed. Of course, there are not many women left, most of them are public officials of the Ming Dynasty. These people have received complete military training, and they are also staying in the building where the glory is located. This is the core area of ​​the defense of the entire Yangang. Theoretically, the enemy will never be able to attack this place.
