Chapter 214 Attacking Luzon: Attacking Cavite ([-])
Zhang Nianchun and more than a dozen marine soldiers quickly dispersed the Spanish officers and soldiers at the gate of the castle, collected their weapons one by one, and formed a tight army formation at the gate of the city.Their task is to seize the city gate, and to hold on to it, waiting for the arrival of reinforcements.

Soon, a group of more than fifty Luzon native servants rushed over from the city with spears in their hands.

"Don't panic, everyone listen to my password!" Zhang Nianchun looked at the approaching Luzon native servants, and shouted loudly: "Our reinforcements are behind, hold on for a while. Everyone get ready!"

Looking at the murderous Ming team at the gate of the city, the Luzon natives on the opposite side were a little surprised. Just a dozen Ming people dared to kill the Spaniards and wanted to seize the castle.

"Rush over! Kill them!" A Spanish officer ordered loudly, waving the sword in his hand.

The Luzon native servants shouted and launched a sudden charge, rushing towards the dozen or so Ming people on the opposite side.

"Spear!" Zhang Nianchun yelled
More than a dozen marine soldiers gritted their teeth, raised the wooden spears in their hands, and shrunk back, staring fixedly at the natives rushing across.

"Stab!" Zhang Nianchun bowed his back, straightened his body forward, and stabbed the wooden spear in his hand fiercely.

"Ah! Ah!..." When the two teams collided, there were more than a dozen shrill screams.

Seven of the marines fell down in an instant. Zhang Nianchun tilted his body slightly at the moment of thrusting, narrowly avoiding the stabbing spear from the opposite side. With a short knife, a native next to him stabbed hard into his back.After knocking down the enemy, he brandished a dagger, slashing and stabbing incessantly among the natives.

For close combat, the long wooden spears are no longer applicable. The remaining marines either drew out their short knives and fought with the natives, or waved their fists and smashed at the enemies around them.

From the beginning of the battle, it entered into a fierce hand-to-hand combat. With the superiority of the natives, the marines could not cooperate in twos at all, and they all fell into siege.

"Hey!" Tian Wu rushed to the gate of the city first, stabbed a native with a wooden spear in the back, and his teammates behind him rushed towards the chaotic doorway.

Major Carvalho Lopez looked gloomy at the retreating Luzon native servants, and waved his hand behind him. A group of more than [-] Spanish musketeers walked towards the city gate with neat steps.

After hearing the shouts of killing from near the city gate, Major Carvalho Lopez quickly rushed over from the city with support troops.I thought it was just a mutiny of the servants of the Ming people, but I saw that the extremely brave Ming people quickly killed more than half of the more than 50 native servants, and then quickly assembled the team and firmly guarded the gate of the city.He knew that these Ming people could not be Ming people's servants from Manila.They must have belonged to some powerful pirate group, or, servants of the Dutch.Their goal is very clear, that is, they want to occupy the Cavite shipyard!
"Holy shit, musketeers!" Zhang Nianchun gasped when he saw the neatly lined up Spanish musketeers opposite him.They didn't have any muskets at this time, except for wooden spears and short knives in their hands.Li Fade, that bastard, lost his way in the jungle?
"Raise the spear! Raise the spear!" Zhang Nianchun shouted loudly, throwing the wooden spear like a javelin, maybe it can stop it for a while.If the musketeers don't come to support, we probably have to explain here.

"Stand still!" the Spanish officer ordered loudly.

More than 50 Spanish musketeers, lined up in four rows, stood more than 40 meters away from the city gate, raised their muskets, and aimed at the direction of the marines.

"Throw!" With Zhang Nianchun yelling, thirty wooden spears were thrown out.

The Spanish musketeers on the opposite side were in a little confusion. Seven or eight soldiers were nailed to the ground with wooden spears, but soon, under the organization of the officers, the four rows of musketeers were re-arranged.

The marine soldiers near the city gate were ashamed, perhaps, they would all be shot near the city gate one by one.

"Sir, let's fight!" Holding a dagger, Tian Wu solemnly said to Zhang Nianchun: "Let's rush over and fight the enemy!"

Zhang Nianchun had already seen that the Spanish officer on the opposite side had raised his saber high, and his musket could be fired at any time.

"Get down!" Zhang Nianchun ordered.He decided to wait a little longer, maybe the musketeers of the Marine Corps would come over soon.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!..." The Spanish muskets on the opposite side fired.

The second row of Spanish musketeers stepped forward and aimed their guns.

But what about the enemy?Why are they all down?
Major Carvalho Lopez smiled disdainfully, can you avoid our blow by lying down?He turned his head and ordered the native servants to come forward with the Musketeers.Since you want to lie on the ground, let the spears of the natives nail you there.

"Fire the cannon!" Niu Hu ordered loudly.According to the contact information with the fleet in advance, the artillery bombardment of the dock is the signal to occupy the dock.Although the Marine Corps soldiers are still continuing to attack the remaining forts, Niu Hu believes that the forts can definitely be disarmed before the arrival of the fleet.

Now, the only concern is whether Zhang Nianchun can seize the gate of the castle, and whether Li Fade, who landed in advance, can arrive at the castle in time.If there is a mistake between the two of them, it means that the Han-Dutch coalition forces must storm the castle.

"You immediately bring fifty brothers and muskets to support Zhang Nianchun!" Niu Hu was startled when he heard the sound of muskets coming from the direction of the castle, and grabbed Ren Daquan, "Go right away!"

After hearing this, Ren Daquan immediately greeted two platoons of soldiers, turned around and ran towards the merchant ships docked at the pier.Because it is necessary to go ashore to pretend to be servants of the Ming Dynasty, all the muskets of the Marine Corps are temporarily stored on the ship. At this time, they must return, carrying a large amount of muskets and gunpowder, and quickly support the battle at the city gate.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The fort fired three shells towards the sea, and the soldiers on both sides, who were fighting desperately, all looked towards the sea in unison.On the radiant sea surface, turbulent waves kept crashing against the shore. As far as the eye can see, the depths of the sea reflected the blood-red sunset, as if foretelling the coming of a cruel enemy.

The marines bravely held their wooden spears and charged at one fort after another. Scattered musket fire and desperate counterattacks never stopped them.The Spanish soldiers and gunners on the fort were horrified to discover that Ming people, who were once considered cowardly and cowardly, were so brave and fearless.Even if they were struck by muskets, they would throw their spears, or throw their daggers, the moment before their lives died.

In such a desperate fight, the gunners of the fort were the first to collapse. They dropped their rapiers or cannon poles and fled desperately towards the fort.

"Damn it, now it's time to go all out!" Zhang Nianchun looked up at the Spanish musketeers and Luzon natives approaching slowly, with a ferocious face, his right hand firmly grasping the dagger, and aimed at the remaining forty or so marine soldiers Shouted: "It's a man's, follow me and rush over, and fight him for money!"

After speaking, he jumped up and rushed towards the Spanish team.

"Bump! Bump! Bump!..." A row of muskets rang out, and six or seven of the jumping marine soldiers were immediately knocked down, but the rest rushed over without hesitation.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!..." The second row of muskets rang out, and another six or seven Marines fell down.

Tian Wu held the knife in one hand, and tightly clutched his chest with his left hand, oh, it's too bad, he was shot.He tried to stand up, but the strength in his body seemed to be taken away quickly, he struggled a few times, and fell to the ground slumped.

Zhang Nianchun felt a sharp pain in his left arm, it was hit by a musket, and he couldn't lift it up at all.But he vigorously swung the dagger in his right hand and slashed at the Luzon native in front of him.

Tan Zhongfu was tripped by the corpse in front of him and fell to the ground, and quickly rolled to the side a few times to avoid the stampede of the natives on the opposite side.Taking advantage of an opening, he grabbed a native native's calf and pulled him hard, dragging him to the ground.Immediately, a knife stabbed him in the neck.Blood spattered out and painted himself all over his face.

Tan Zhongfu rolled sideways again, dodged a spear stabbed by a native, stretched out his hand to wipe his face, and was about to stand up.

"Ah!" There was a sudden exclamation from the opposite side, and a Spanish musketeer saw a blood-stained Ming man staring at him viciously, panicked, dropped the musket in his hand, turned around and ran back.

"Hehe..." Tan Zhongfu laughed, what the hell, it turns out that barbarians are also afraid of us dying.He stood up, touched the dagger, and rushed towards the Spanish musketeers.

Major Carvalho Lopez frowned, looking at the environment on the battlefield.Facing such a huge superior force of Spain, the enemy has not yet collapsed. Instead, they rely on desperate tactics to push the front line into the city.

"Order the Musketeers to retreat, and all the natives to charge." Seeing that the battle line was about to be pushed to the vicinity of the Spanish Musketeers, Major Lopez ordered immediately.

Hundreds of natives, they will not be defeated by these Ming people who are less than forty.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The sudden sound of cannons outside the city made everyone slightly stunned.

"Reinforcements are coming!" Zhang Nianchun yelled, splitting the stabbing spear with one knife, turning his body slightly, and the blade slid along the shaft of the spear.

"Ah!" the native screamed, several fingers were cut off by the knife, and he dropped the spear in pain, squatting on the ground, covering his hands and crying out for pain.

"Hmm..." Zhang Nianchun was just about to kill the native with a single blow, when suddenly he felt a pain in his back and was stabbed by a spear, and immediately threw himself forward.

Seeing Zhang Nianchun fell to the ground, a few natives raised their spears and stabbed at him. They were bound to kill this Ming man who had killed several people in succession.

"Li Fade of the dog day! You fucking want to kill me!" Zhang Nianchun rolled on the ground in a circle, avoiding the assassination of a few natives, but a few spears persisted in chasing him.One couldn't dodge in time, and was stabbed in the calf, causing him to cry out in pain.
