The Monterey tribe has lived in a valley in the south of the bay for generations. Originally, it was the tribe's territory all the way to the shore of the bay.
However, after the Spaniards came over and were repeatedly harassed and attacked, for safety reasons, the tribe as a whole moved into the valley, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Monterey played a pivotal role in the history of the tribe, and later the Spaniards named the bay where the tribe was located after him.
After the arrival of the Empire, the Monterey tribe regarded the Empire and Spain as the same enemy and always maintained hostility.
But through Fu Xinyuan's sincere efforts, everyone in the tribe was still aware of the differences in the empire.
While their deliberations were still pending, the Spaniards attacked again.
This is an expedition team of more than one hundred people, led by a Spaniard named Montero Alsimons.
This was a bankrupt businessman who was being chased for debts in mainland Spain and had no place to stay, so he simply took an adventure in the Viceroyalty of New Spain.
Unlike other Spaniards who arrived in the colony who focused on business, Alsimons always wanted to make a fortune.
He heard from other adventurers that there was gold in the bay to the north, and he became interested.
Although other adventurers did not dare to go north for fear of the empire's attack, Al Simons felt that how could one make a fortune without taking risks?
Moreover, he had no impression of the empire and didn't think it was very powerful.
He found Atkins Dorias, the governor of New Spain, and after some deception, he got a sponsorship.
He used this sponsorship to recruit more than a hundred desperadoes and drove two small boats to search for them.
David Silva in the adventure team once had contact with the local aborigines and exchanged a glass ball for a large piece of gold from the aborigines, which became a legend in the new governorate.
Silva made a fortune and was not satisfied. When Al Simmons recruited warriors, he joined the team and became a guide.
They successfully found the valley and launched an attack on the tribe without saying a word.
This time there were more than a hundred of them, and they were equipped with muskets and artillery. It was not difficult to destroy a primitive tribe.
Sure enough, as soon as the battle started, the tribe couldn't stand it anymore and had no choice but to retreat to the mountains with steep terrain.
Al Simons and others occupied the tribe's village, took all the gold and silver they found for themselves, and then burned the village with fire.
They decided to kill them all and take the land as their own.
If nothing else happens, their evil deeds will really succeed.
But unfortunately, they didn't know that the Empire was coming.
At the moment of life and death, Monterey finally convinced everyone in the clan to run to the empire in person for help.
Even if we don’t know whether the empire has malicious intentions, we still have to deal with the immediate crisis.
Hearing that the tribe had been attacked by the Spanish, Fu Xinyuan and Wu Jiang immediately realized that this was a good opportunity to integrate into the local area.
The two of them immediately divided the work without saying anything.
General Wu led the navy around the bay, preparing to annihilate the two small ships of the Spanish adventure team.
Fu Xinyuan led a security group, guided by Monterey, through the originally well-defended valley mouth and embarked on a rescue journey.
As soon as they entered the valley, Fu Xinyuan grabbed the anxious Monterey.
"We can't let the hateful invaders escape, we have to arrange it properly."
Fu Xinyuan took out his telescope and conducted reconnaissance in the valley.
The valley is in the shape of a trumpet, and it becomes more and more open as you go inward. There are only a few small rolling hills that continue all the way to the seaside.
There is also a small river in the valley that flows to the ocean on the south side and is the main source of water.
The Spaniards pushed the tribesmen up the mountains to the north and were attacking unhurriedly. Unbeknownst to him, the Empire was already watching from the sidelines.
After clarifying the situation, Fu Xinyuan handed over the combat mission to the regiment leader Li Dajin.
"First Battalion, go around from the south side of the river and block the coast. Don't let anyone escape. Once in position, launch a signal flare."
The first battalion received the order, broke away from the team, trudged quietly across the river, and circled around the foot of the mountain to the south.
Seeing that the National Defense Force had not moved for a long time, Monterrey couldn't help but ask: "Savior, why don't you take action?"
Fu Xinyuan laughed, pulled him to squat down, and drew pictures on the ground to explain.
When he learned that the National Defense Forces planned to wipe out this group of invaders, Monterrey couldn't help grinning.
"Savior, please hand over these demons to us. I want to avenge the dead people."
Fu Xinyuan is capable of everything.
"After you catch them, ask for useful things and do whatever you want with them."
Tears of gratitude filled Monterey's eyes.
I don't understand at all. They are both outsiders, so why is there such a big gap?
Al Simmons doesn't know that death is getting closer and closer. He is leading the adventure team to attack the top of the mountain.
The primitive bows and arrows of the indigenous people were no match for the flintlock guns, and many people had been killed by them.
Al Simons has seen that there are quite a few pretty women among the natives. After eliminating the warriors in the tribe, you must vent your anger.

Everything was going well until...
Suddenly there was a loud noise in the western sky, and something flew up.
Al Simons looked in shock and saw a firework suddenly blooming in the western sky.
Even though it was daytime, the fireworks were so brilliant that they were still clearly visible.
He couldn't help but wonder.
Okay, who sets off the fireworks?
But then he felt something was wrong.
Who would set off fireworks in a place like this?
Tribal aborigines?
Don't be ridiculous, can they make fireworks?
Released by one of your own?
Well, the Spaniards don't know how to make fireworks either.
So who is it?
"Look, what is that?"
The exclamation woke up Al Simons. He followed the directions and felt his whole body become cold.
At the mouth of the valley in the east, countless figures began to appear.
These men were approaching quickly, their muskets signaling danger.
Al Simmons is absolutely certain that the one running over is definitely not a Spaniard.
It was impossible for the Viceroyalty of New Spain to send so many troops here.
Moreover, the clothing of these people is completely different from that of the Spanish army.
The Spanish army is armor-piercing.
The troops that were charging over did not have armor, but their uniforms were very uniform, and they carried a neat spirit.
"Enemy attack!"
Although he did not know who appeared, as a colonial adventurer, Al Simons followed the most basic principles.
Strangers are enemies.
The adventure team that was attacking the indigenous people quickly retreated, maintaining a certain formation, and slowly moved towards the seaside.
Their numbers were too small, and if they could get support from the ship's artillery, they might still have a chance to win.
Just as Al Simons was thinking this, the sound of cannons suddenly rumbled on the sea, so intense and continuous that they even became one.
In the eyes of the Spaniards, the two ships originally docked in the bay were torn into pieces and disappeared out of thin air almost in the blink of an eye.
Before they could figure out what happened, a large fleet of warships rushed out from behind the billowing smoke and completely blocked the sea.
