At this moment, the Spanish defenders in Manila were in chaos.
After Lanfang's army rushed into the city, they did not immediately organize a line of defense for defense. Instead, Qiu Yong led a company of well-trained soldiers to quickly complete the three-column formation and shoot at the Spanish defenders.
"Free Fire!"
Qiu Yong held up a Lanfang-style flintlock gun and started shooting at the Spanish soldiers behind the gap with the soldiers. There was a burst of gunfire, and a large area of the panicked Spanish defenders was immediately knocked down.
Seeing that the Spanish defenders did not form a formation to resist, Qiu Yong knew that these guys were in chaos and their morale had collapsed, so he stopped shooting and led the soldiers to charge with the bayonet straight.
"Charge over! Kill them all!!!"
Qiu Yong blushed and took the lead in the charge with his bayonet pointed out. A company of soldiers also followed Qiu Yong in the charge.
The Spanish soldiers originally wanted to shoot to resist, but when they saw the Lanfang soldiers rushing towards them like tigers descending the mountain, they were so frightened that they couldn't even hold their guns steady, so they turned around and ran away.
Qiu Yong rushed quickly and quickly rushed behind a Spanish soldier. Without saying a word, he drew his gun and stabbed the white Spanish soldier with a sharp bayonet in the back, killing him directly.
More soldiers came up and stabbed fiercely with their guns. The Spanish, whose morale had collapsed, were no match at all. They were kicked to the ground by Lanfang soldiers one after another, and were stabbed into the chest, abdomen or head with sharp bayonets, and they died on the ground. .
After dealing with the group of Spanish soldiers in front of him, Qiu Yong continued to lead his troops forward, passing through a patch of broken and collapsed houses, and met a large group of Spanish soldiers heading in their direction.
Seeing the large number of people on the other side, Qiu Yong made a decisive decision and squatted down to raise his gun.
"Array up! Free fire!!!!"
His soldiers quickly took the order, and together with him, they quickly completed the three-column formation, raised their guns, and started firing freely.
The Spanish soldiers with different skin colors on the opposite side moved slowly. Unexpectedly, the Lanfang soldiers completed their military formations so quickly and started shooting.
In panic, they had no time to fight back and were shot and killed by Lanfang soldiers.
The leading Spanish officer saw something bad at first glance, and then saw that there were not many soldiers in Lanfang on the opposite side, so he made up his mind and ordered a charge.
There were more white Spanish soldiers in this team and they were better equipped. They belonged to the elite soldiers of the Governor's Palace in Manila. So they followed the officer and launched a charge with their bayonets drawn, and soon approached the Lanfang military formation.
When Qiu Yong saw that the other party was braver and could not run away with his shot, he stood up and shouted angrily: "Go!!!"
The number of soldiers who followed Qiu Yong was not as large as that of the other side, but they were brave enough. They followed Qiu Yong and bravely moved forward with their bayonets, and they fought together with the Spanish soldiers. Both sides stabbed with their guns, and the bloody battle continued.
Qiu Yong just drew his gun and stabbed a Spanish soldier to death. When he turned around, a Spanish soldier who was about to attack him from behind accidentally scratched his left arm with a bayonet.
He dodged and fell to the ground, and the Spanish soldier stabbed him with his gun. He quickly rolled his body and avoided the Spanish soldier's several consecutive stabs.
While rolling his body, he took out the dagger in his pocket, and while he was rolling next, he threw the dagger at the Spanish soldier with a flick of his hand.
The soldier did not react or dodge. The dagger was thrust into his throat and he fell to the ground dead with a look of horror on his face.
Qiu Yong's crisis has not been resolved yet. Because of the large number of Spaniards, Lanfang was obviously at a disadvantage. Many soldiers were stabbed or stabbed to death. At the critical moment, the soldiers of the Second Company, led by company captain Keio Finney, He rushed to the battlefield.
When Keio saw that the situation was not good, he immediately rushed forward with his bayonet and stabbed to death a Spanish soldier who was attacking Qiu Yong. He reached out and pulled the embarrassed Qiu Yong up from the ground.
"You are hurt?"
"It's a small thing! It's just a skin injury. Why did you get your special brew?"
"Who told you to run so fast?"
"Do you blame me? These red-haired thieves are too useless!"
"Okay! Hurry up and find the medics to bandage the wounds!"
"It's just a small scratch! The President said that soldiers should not leave the line of fire if they are slightly injured! Rush!!!!"
Qiu Yong roared bravely and continued to charge forward with his bayonet straight. He lunged forward and stabbed another Spanish soldier to death.
Kaiao was speechless and could only rush forward, charging with Qiu Yong.
This time, Lanfang soldiers had the upper hand and crushed the Spanish army.
Not long after, the third company, led by company captain Ruan Xiangshan, also arrived on the battlefield. After fierce hand-to-hand combat, the entire Spanish army was wiped out, with only a few fleeing in panic.
Lanfang's army continued to rush and fight fiercely, rushed into downtown Manila, and marched bravely towards the Manila Governor's Palace. The Spanish defenders along the way were completely unable to resist, and they were overwhelmed by Lanfang's bayonet charge before they had time to fire.
After losing several streets in a row, the Governor's Palace in Manila was in sight. A Spanish garrison, led by Brigadier General Bertin of the Army, built a temporary defense line with obstacles in advance.
When Lan Fang's army approached them, Brigadier General Belding had already given the order before they could shoot.
"fire!"
The land combat light field artillery within the defense line fired grape bombs. With the roar of the cannons, the scattered iron bullets surged in and instantly killed and injured dozens of Lanfang soldiers who had completed the formation, like a goddess scattering flowers. They beat him until his flesh was bloody and his body was broken.
For a time, blood splattered everywhere, and the scene was extremely bloody.
Faced with the obstruction of field artillery and grape bombs, Lanfang's army was forced to stop charging. Qiu Yong gave orders loudly, and the soldiers spread out to find bunkers to avoid the artillery bombardment.
"Damn it, wait for me here! Kaio! You lead the men to shoot and cover me, and I will lead the men to rush up and stab these bastards to death! Row after row, charge at me!"
The red-eyed Qiu Yong said that he was about to rush forward, and a group of red-eyed soldiers around him also wanted to rush forward with Qiu Yong, but Qiu Yong was held tightly by Kaiao.
"You're crazy! There are so many people, who do you think you are? God's illegitimate son? You will be beaten to death!"
"How will you know if you don't flush it?"
"Don't risk your life!"
"I……"
"Okay, okay, stop making noise, I brought the cannon!"
Ruan Xiangshan, captain of the third company, rushed over in time and brought three guerrilla general cannons for field use.
"Good guy, if you want to sleep here, just bring me a pillow! Lao Ruan, that's okay!"
"Don't call me Lao Ruan! I already told you to call me Dashan!"
Ruan Xiangshan, a Vietnamese, can speak fluent Chinese, so he doesn't like Qiu Yong calling him Lao Ruan. He always feels that this title is a bit ambiguous.
Keo, a native of the Netherlands, was not so particular. He spoke Chinese very poorly and didn't understand much, so he slapped Ruan Xiangshan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, Lao Ruan, no wonder you are running in Behind it, there’s a cannon towed!”
"Why do you also call me Lao Ruan?"
Ruan Xiangshan rolled his eyes at Kaiao, then waved his arm and gave an order to his artillery team.
"Look over there! Blow me up with explosive bombs! Blow up those red-haired thieves!"
The gunners immediately set up the artillery position. After careful observation and adjustment, they put the explosive bomb into the large muzzle of the guerrilla general's cannon and ignited the fuse.
With a few muffled sounds, the explosive bomb soared into the sky and landed firmly on the Spanish defensive position.
Suddenly, several large sparks exploded on the Spanish defensive position opposite, catching the Spanish artillery team off guard. Several field cannons were overturned, and more than a dozen gunners were blown up to the sky. The position was in chaos. .
"Okay! Well done! Brothers! Charge with me!!!"
While Kai Ao wasn't paying attention, Qiu Yong rushed out with a dive, and Lan Fang's army began to attack again.
This time, they successfully rushed to the Spanish defensive position. Qiu Yong leaped forward, kicked over a guy who looked like an officer, then raised his bayonet and stabbed the guy. A heart-breaking feeling.
After the war, he learned that this guy was a Spanish army brigadier general.
Under the brave bayonet charge of the Lanfang soldiers, the last line of defense of the Spanish army collapsed. The door of the Governor's Palace was opened, and the first to rush into the Governor's Palace was Qiu Yong, the bravest and bravest, Qiu Yong, Caio and Ruan Xiangshan had to line up. behind him.
The Governor's Palace in Manila is still magnificent, but they have no time to take care of the current situation, so the entire Governor's Palace looks messy.
When Qiu Yong rushed in, he even saw some Spanish women in gorgeous dresses running into the house in a panic. Some even lost their shoes and screamed.
There were still resisting soldiers in the Governor's Palace. They organized a temporary and simple defense line in the Governor's Palace to try to block the intrusion of Lanfang's army. However, these resistances were in vain.
More and more Lanfang soldiers poured into the Governor's Mansion, and the last defenders had no fighting will. When Lanfang's army launched a bayonet charge under the leadership of Qiu Yong, they gave up resistance and ran away.
So Qiu Yong once again led his troops into the Governor's Mansion building.
