"Governor Kong, do you want to keep company with the Spanish?"

Listening to the sound of firecrackers coming from all over the city, Zhu Wenda suddenly couldn't help but look cold.

Just when Cao Rong was leading 1,200 Yulin guards to fight Ma Dalan for taking over Bazhang, on the other side, Fangcheng, which served as the Ming army camp in the southwest corner of Katong City, Mangla, had just led the Fujian soldiers to settle in.

Zhu Wenda, who had only been here for two days, looked at his "old acquaintance" Kong Deda with a stern expression.

"General Zhu, there must be some misunderstanding here. Since we have surrendered, how can we rebel again?"

Looking at Zhu Wenda's murderous face, Kong Deda quickly denied it.

"Haha, misunderstanding? Listen, are we going to use your matchlock guns?"

Zhu Wenda couldn't help but smile coldly at the sound that was obviously different from the firing sound of the Ming army's flintlock rifled muskets.

Thanks to this expedition against the Western Barbarians in Nanyang, the Fujian town soldiers were one step ahead of the frontier army in the distribution of flintlock rifled muskets. Therefore, like the Yulin Guards, all Fujian town soldiers were equipped with flintlock rifled muskets.

, how is it possible to use the old-fashioned matchlock muskets commonly equipped by the Portuguese?

"Come here, give me the order. The entire army must return to Fangcheng and lure all the rebels over!"

After a sneer, Zhu Wenda ignored Kong Deda and immediately issued an order for everyone to return to Fangcheng.

"Tell your governor, if you don't want your Portuguese and Spanish people in Luzon to keep company, let them withdraw from the city. Otherwise, I don't mind building a few temples in Manchuria by then!"

Finally, after giving the order for all the ministries in the city to return to Fangcheng, Zhu Wenda gave the order coldly to the Portuguese interpreter next to Conde University.

"Don't worry, General Zhu. I will definitely advise them to cooperate fully!"

Hearing the word "Jingguan" directly transliterated by his translator, Conde couldn't help but shudder. Immediately, the "pyramids" built with heads and corpses outside Manila appeared in his mind.

Come.

However, Conde still overestimated his own prestige, and perhaps underestimated the determination of the "warrior" Portuguese to protect their own interests.

Unlike the 'sensible and obedient' Dutch, the Portuguese, who have been colonizing Manchuria for nearly a hundred years, asking them to directly give up the benefits they have plundered for generations is tantamount to cutting their flesh.

The reason why Conde agreed with Kongde's order to temporarily abandon Manlajia and wait for the Ming army to withdraw was just a delaying tactic by the main combatants. The purpose was to allow the Ming army to enter the city and the navy's naval guns outside the city.

It's just a weapon that prevents rats from being used to attack Manlajia on a large scale.

Therefore, except for the Portuguese who had experienced the Battle of Manila, Conde's persuasion was of no use at all.

…

"Haha, do you think that if you restrict the navy's artillery support, I won't be able to fight?"

Not long after Conde and his men left, the thousands of Fujian soldiers and troops originally stationed in the east and west cities quickly returned to Fangcheng. And the Portuguese rebels and soldiers who followed closely

The Manchurian and puppet troops naturally followed in droves.

Speaking of which, although the Portuguese rule in various colonies has always been tyrannical, no matter what nationality, there are still people with weak bones.

Therefore, this premeditated rebellion by the Portuguese was followed by a large number of Manchurians, and the total number of rebels was at least 20,000 to 30,000.

As for the Fujian town troops, they were stationed in various places after landing at Temasek. There were only five thousand people in Managara City.

This was one of the reasons why Zhu Wenda reduced his troops and was unwilling to engage in street fighting with these people. After all, these people were local snakes and were more familiar with the terrain than the Ming army who had just arrived.

"Boom boom boom boom!"

Soon, as the rebellious Portuguese and Manchurian puppet troops got closer and closer to Fangcheng, the dozens of squatting tiger cannons that had been prepared on Fangcheng began to roar in turn.

"Come on!"

Facing the Ming army's bombardment, all the Portuguese-Manchu rebels could do was to speed up their charge in order to get into musket shooting range as quickly as possible.

No way, artillery is not as easy to hide as muskets. After the Ming army entered the city, the first thing they did was to collect all the artillery, large and small, in the city.

Therefore, although the rebels have hidden muskets, they do not have heavy weapons such as artillery. Fortunately, the Fujian town soldiers are not equipped with as many squatting cannons as the Yulin guards. Otherwise, these rebels may not have charged.

Within the shooting distance of the matchlock guns in their hands, most of them were already damaged by the Tiger Crouching Cannon!

"Three stages of attack, take turns to fire!"

Seeing that the Portuguese-Manchu rebels had rushed to a distance of 200 steps, without Zhu Wenda's order, the officers of the Yulin Guard who turned around quickly issued the order to open fire in three stages.

"My God, why, why can the Ming Dynasty's muskets shoot so far and with such high accuracy?"

Seeing the soldiers falling to the ground under the gunfire of the Ming army, the rebellious Portuguese couldn't help but exclaimed.

There was no way, at this distance, although the muskets in their hands could barely reach it, it was not accurate at all. If they wanted to hit the target, they had to advance at least half the distance.

However, under the powerful firepower net of the Ming army's flintlock guns and squatting tiger cannons, only their God knows how many people will be left after they rush to this distance.

…

"It's over, I can never get this Manlajia back again!"

Outside Manlajia City, looking at the rebels falling like wheat under the square city with loud gunfire, Kong De couldn't help but lament.

You must know that the population of Portugal is simply incomparable to that of the Ming Dynasty. They were able to occupy and rule Manlajia. In addition to having more advanced weapons than the locals, they also had the cooperation of the 'Manchu traitors'.

Fortunately, now, after this rebellion, this force has been completely lost. Even if there are new "Manchu traitors" in the future, they will be the "Manchu traitors" of the Ming Dynasty!

'Why don't we simply give up this colony in the Far East in order to gain the support of the Ming people and get rid of Spanish rule?'

Seeing that nothing could be done, Conde, the Portuguese Governor of Goa, suddenly remembered the 'gift' mentioned by the Ming Dynasty Marquis when he was in Manila.

'Well, as long as we can preserve our interests in India, just give up on this place in the Far East!'

Finally, after once again looking at the rebels who had suffered heavy losses and the Ming Dynasty Royal Navy soldiers who were landing, Kong Deda finally gave up his previous unrealistic idea of ​​waiting for the Ming army to withdraw and reoccupy Manlajia.

…

"Don't kill this Ming general. We are willing to surrender. Ma Dalan is also willing to join Shitang Chief Secretary and join the Ming Dynasty!"???.

Just when Conde secretly gave up his previous decision, on the other side, Sennapati, the Sultan of the Malalan Kingdom, who came with great momentum and was ready to give the Ming army a hard blow first and then rely on his strength to negotiate, was also unable to do so at this moment.

Without lowering his proud head as the 'founding king of the country', he knelt down towards Cao Rong like a defeated rooster.
