"A few days ago, have the victims of the flood in Henan been settled properly?" Looking at the vast sea, Zhu Youjian asked suddenly.

"The disaster victims have been resettled properly, but their houses and grain fields were destroyed by the water. It will take some time to rebuild after the disaster."

"The climate has become more and more abnormal in the past two years. I think that in the next few years, Ming Dynasty will face more natural disasters. This is why I am keen to open up more territories, because only in this way can we pass the risk on to others place to go.

The climate in Luzon is warm, and rice is harvested three times a year. As long as it can be harvested, coupled with our high-yielding grain seeds, it will definitely become another granary for Daming.By then, how much famine can be solved by continuously transporting it to the inland?

These days, some people in the court began to feel sorry for the Jiannu in the Northeast, saying that treating them was too cruel.In my opinion, it is purely enough to live in peace.The domestic disaster is still out of control, and you still have the mood to pity those Tartars, what a shame!

You are the head of all officials, and you should and have the obligation to understand that kindness can be directed internally, but it must not be externalized.I don't want to hear such a voice in the future, if you can control it, control it, if you can't control me, kill me.understand? "

"I understand!"

After hearing Zhu Youjian's words, Fan Jingwen replied solemnly.

"Let's go back to Beijing!" Thinking of some annoying ghosts in the court, Zhu Youjian was not in the mood to stay and play in Tianjin anymore.After meeting with Wang Zheng, he took people back to the capital.

At the other end, Eloy also returned to Manila with his entourage.

He was in a daze all the way, and he didn't even know how he got back.After seeing Olaza, Eloy knelt down on the ground with a plop, and burst into tears.

"Master Governor! I was wrong! You kill me!"

"Get up, what's the matter? Did we not agree?" His crying made Olaza cry, and he hurriedly reached out to help him up.

"My lord, Zheng Zhilong's wolf ambition is not for food at all! It's for annexing the entire Luzon!"

"What!? What's going on!?"

Olaza was taken aback and asked sharply.

Eloy double-counted the conversation he had with Zheng Zhilong just now, and Olaza's face was so gloomy that he was about to drip water after hearing it.

"Too much deception! Too much deception! What is he, Zheng Zhilong! Luzon belongs to us in Spain! It belongs to our great king! Could it be that he wants to provoke a full-scale war between the two countries!?"

"It's not Zheng Zhilong! Zheng Zhilong was just ordered by the Emperor of Ming! It is the Emperor of Ming who wants Lu Song!"

"Emperor Ming, Emperor Ming..."

Olaza languished.

He had never seen the Ming Emperor.But know he's young and capable.In the past few years since he ascended the throne, he has continued to make big moves, regaining Taiwan, annexing North Korea, and eradicating the slaves. Now, is he eyeing Luzon again?But didn't Daming never care about overseas territories?If they really let them occupy Luzon, will His Majesty the King go to war with them?

Olaza's head turned quickly, and after thinking for a while, he sat down on the chair dejectedly.

impossible.

A Netherlands has already made them burnt out. It is impossible for His Majesty the King to be willing to have another powerful opponent in the East, and it is still such a powerful opponent. ….The only thing we can do right now is to stick to Manila!Let Zheng Zhilong come back in defeat, and let Emperor Ming's calculations be aborted!

"Come on!" Olaza stood up abruptly.

"Give me an order to send people to catch up with the fleet heading to Dagupan, let them go to the waters of Laoag, and seal Zheng Zhilong's supply line."

"Open the treasury and distribute all the muskets and armor inside to the native soldiers. Also open the silver treasury and distribute the money! Increase the regular army and native soldiers' food and salaries to five times the usual amount! Advance payment for one month in advance!"

"In addition, send people out of the city to recruit soldiers. As long as you are willing to join the army, you will have to pay three months' salary first. Besides, you will be exempted from taxes for the next three years!"

Olaza is going all out, since you, Zheng Zhilong, want to play hard, then I can't just give up easily.

If this Lu Song is forcibly occupied in his own hands, I am afraid that the vice king himself will do it too!

Right now, there is no other way but to die.As for escaping, anyone can, but Olaza can't.If you flee without a fight, you will die if you return to Mexico!It's better to stay and do a game, it's still unknown who will win.

What he was sure of was nothing more than Zheng Zhilong's long-term battle and supply difficulties. He only needed to cut off their supplies and stick to it for a while.There is only one way in front of Zheng Zhilong, and that is to retreat!As long as they retreat, they will definitely lose their vigor, and if they want to get involved in Luzon in the future, it will be tantamount to nonsense!

After thinking everything through, Olaza felt much more at ease.Then I remembered Eloy who was kneeling on the ground.

After thinking about it, he helped Eloy up.

"It's not entirely your fault. You went to Taiwan with my approval that day, and I am naturally responsible. Now that Zheng Zhilong is approaching the city, we have no choice but to resist desperately! Next, it's time for you to serve His Majesty the King." !"

"Your Excellency!" Eloy choked up.

Unexpectedly, instead of blaming him, the governor would say such a thing.At this time, his heart was extremely firm, and his blood was rushing in his body.

If the city is there, I will be there.If the city is broken, I will die!

Zheng Zhilong didn't know about the touching scene that happened in the governor's mansion. He launched an attack the next morning after Eloy left.

His twelve thousand soldiers were divided into three parts.

Four thousand musketeers armed with flintlock muskets, and six thousand infantry armed with swords, shields and spears.The rest were in charge of manipulating one hundred artillery pieces and supervising the battle. The target of the supervising battle was naturally Conley's rebel army.

Zheng Zhilong led people outside the city, and was surprised by the fortifications outside the city.

Outside the city of Manila, one after another fortifications criss-crossed, not to mention artillery, even people would have to work hard to get there.

Zheng Zhilong took a visual inspection, and it was about two miles away from Manila.

Two miles away is the huge castle built by the Spaniards for decades and with countless painstaking efforts.

Zheng Zhilong was not in a hurry to attack, but sent people to spare a circle outside the city.

It was found that not only this direction, but also the entire perimeter of Manila had such fortifications.

"Zhibao, order the cannons to be brought over, and let them know we're coming!"

"okay!"

Just as Zheng Zhibao left, before the cannons were set up, the Spanish artillery at the top of the city fired first.

A few shells flew over with a roar. Coincidentally, they just smashed into the camp of the rebel army.

The smashed natives turned on their backs, howling again and again.

Their shells quickly pulled over and fired at the head of the city, but the solid shells hit the hard wall, and their effect was really limited.

"Zheng Bing, let me lead someone to try first, and let the rest of the soldiers retreat one after another. This will only increase unnecessary damage."

When the two sides were shooting each other, Lu Jiang, who was standing on the sidelines watching the battle, couldn't help but stand up.
