Chapter 239 Blood Case Caused by Gold
The sound of shouting, gunling, exploding, and fire from everywhere.
In a short time, the city of Davao, which had just woken up from the silence, was completely shrouded in the smoke of war. When the Spanish garrison ran to the dock one after another, the new Kati Punan army led by Aquinado quickly opened the gate and rushed into the largest fortress in the south of Luzon.
The warship sank and the fort exploded, causing the Spanish army to lose its most important heavy fire cover. Thousands of Spanish soldiers suddenly panicked. Some of them still ran to the port, while the other ran in the direction of the city gate. The precious troops were suddenly torn apart.
Davao residents who were awakened by the explosion originally wanted to see what had happened, but as the gunfire and explosion became more and more dense, everyone was so scared that they no longer dared to show up and huddled up one after another.
Wen Xiu wore night clothes and shuttled through the messy shantytowns. In front of them were two sharp soldiers. They half bowed their bodies, suddenly close to the wall, and then covered side by side. The rifle was tightly against the shoulder, and their fingers never left the trigger.
Behindwere more than a dozen other night eagles. While a pair of eyes glanced around with vigilance, they also pricked up their ears and listened to the strange noises around them. They were like falcons flying in the night, sliding briskly across each window without a trace of ripples.
Suddenly, the sharp soldiers in front of him suddenly raised their right fists, and the night eagles scattered and squatted down, hiding in the shadow of the corner of the house and the big tree. As soon as they hid, they saw a group of Spanish soldiers running through the crossroads with torches. The soldiers with guns still maintained the appearance of the ancient empire, as if they were being inspected, and did not squint at the night eagle hidden in the shadows.
Although Wen Xiu and several snipers still use the 91S sniper rifle, the rest of the Nighthawks around him have already been replaced with the latest Type 97 semi-automatic rifles, so he believes that as long as he orders, the team can completely rely on the speed of fire to quickly kill the Spanish army of about 50 people.
But at this moment, he has no time to accompany these Spanish soldiers who are still wearing red military uniforms and are no different from the target. After killing the fort, there is only one of his task left, the official residence of the Spanish political axe in Davao City.
Although Medan is remote, it is rich in palm oil and gold. Combustela is hailed as a natural treasury by the Spanish colonial ax. The colonial ax not only hires a large number of locals to collect gold, but also the soldiers stationed in Davao are completely to serve there. According to the speculation of the intelligence department, there are about three tons per year. The gold was shipped back to Spain from here.
Although this output cannot be compared with the three major gold mines controlled by the young master, for the State Council, which is preparing to establish a central bank, three tons of gold per year is undoubtedly a great wealth.
According to intelligence, for more than half a year, due to the continuous action of the special operations team, pirates in the Nanyang area have been raging, and the slave-catching wind has emerged. In addition, the fleet has fallen into the quagmire of suppressing the Katipnam army, so the gold mined this year has not been transported back.
And Wenxiu's goal is these three tons of gold. He has been ordered to die. He must ensure that the gold is in his own hands and cannot be obtained by the Katipnan army, so after blowing up the fort, he immediately took the nighthawk to the Spanish political axe to the official residence in Davao.
In the distance, the footsteps of Spanish soldiers gradually faded away, and the sharp soldiers who opened the road flashed back to the middle of the road. They squatted left and right on the corners of the street on both sides of the crossroad. After a careful look at it for a while, they waved their arms to their comrades-in-arms to indicate safety.
The hiding night eagles reappeared and skimmed across the intersection like ghosts. With the two sharp soldiers dragging back to cover and finally disappear into the darkness.
Wen Xiu gasped and ran quickly. When the shantytowns around him became looser and looser, he suddenly became cheerful in front of him, and the official residence with a few tons of gold finally appeared in front of him.
After making two gestures to stop moving forward and spreading, the night eagles prepared one after another, and he immediately put his eyes on the scope. On the other side of the lens, several groups of guarded Spanish soldiers gathered around the official residence. A large number of soldiers stood behind the iron gate. Judging from the number, there were 200 people, ten times that of the night eagle!
By the ear, the gunfire in the direction of the gate is getting more and more dense, and the harbor has also been dyed red. He knows that time has become more and more tight. Once the five divisions and one regiment and one battalion from the harbor are blocked and they can't attack quickly, I'm afraid that when the Katipnan army occupies here, I will really lose this batch of gold.
So after observing for a while, he did not dare to delay for a moment. He immediately whispered a few words to a night eagle behind him, or immediately nodded and pulled a partner to run quickly to the port area. When they left, Wen Xiu immediately raised his palm high, and then slowly bent his five fingers until he suddenly clenched into a fist.
Every night eagle knows this gesture, which represents full attack!
The night eagles who received the order immediately took action. They had to train and act countless times, so that they were already proficient in cooperating with each other. The team first rushed out four night eagles. Relying on the cover of big trees and stones, they quickly crawled to a position close to the official residence, and took out a grenade much smaller than the standard grenade. While pulling the safety bolt, he put up his fingers at the partners behind him.
One, two, three!
Wen Xiu silently counted the time. When the three words rolled into his throat, his finger had pulled the trigger.
"Ban!" A crisp gunshot broke the silence near the official residence, and the guard's head at the door of the official residence exploded in half and suddenly fell down.
The gunfire was like a loud charge. The four night eagles immediately threw the grenades into the middle of the Spanish soldiers who were still wondering where the gunfire was coming from. After hearing only four loud noises, more than a dozen Spanish soldiers guarded there were like rag dolls in the flames.
Bang bang bang!
The sound of fried bean-like gunfire also sounded at the same time. The advantages of the new semi-automatic rifle are vividly reflected in the hands of the Nighthawk. This kind of rifle, which does not need to pull the bolt once every shot, has fully exerted the rapid shooting ability of the Nighthawks for many years. The Spanish soldiers in the fire are like pushed down bones. Like a card, it keeps falling down.
Whistles, shouts and screams, like empty night owls, remembered from around the official residence. Countless footsteps came from behind the iron gate, but before the neatly arranged Spanish soldiers rushed to the door, continuous black spots had smashed into the queue.
Boom! ——
"Damn it, what's going on!"
In the official residence, the sudden explosion shocked Blanco and ran upstairs quickly.
As the former governor of the Philippines, after the local people began to show signs of chaos more than a year ago, he was accused of being weak by the nobles in the country, and finally had to be replaced by Polavisia to retire.
Come to Davao. At least there is gold here. Although I dare not swallow all of them into my pockets, no one will find it if I intercepted a little, but he didn't expect that not long after he came, there was a slave hunting incident. When those hundreds of native tribes disappeared overnight, when hundreds of women were humiliated and killed, he killed. I'm afraid!
He didn't expect that Medan, known as the treasure house of the Philippines, would suddenly rot here. At this time, the news of a large-scale armed riot of the natives also came from Luzon. He was more worried about the safety of life and gold. Fortunately, the governor who replaced him also knew the importance of gold, and he did not transfer the garrison in Davao under the most tense situation. A cruiser was also sent to transfer gold when necessary.
Fortunately, with the arrival of reinforcements from China, the most difficult days finally passed, and a whole 3,000 reinforcements were arranged to Davao Port, and as long as the situation stabilized a little, the fleet will also set out to transport the gold back home.
But he didn't expect that when the reinforcements arrived, the mob also appeared, and they also sneaked into the military port and sank the most important cruiser, so that it was impossible for him to transport this batch of gold immediately!
Blanco pulled his already sparse hair hard and hurried up to the second floor. When he opened the balcony door and walked to the railing to see if the mob had hit here, he felt that his eyebrows seemed to have been pricked by something, and his whole head was scattered, and his eyes were distracted at the bursting fires under the balcony. Fall down in the dark in front of you--
"Fuck you!"
The sea rpth flew up and kicked the Spanish red-haired ghost who hid in the room and killed the two partners who followed him to attack. Then he spat fiercely and quickly walked to him, with the muzzle of his eyebrows.
"Ban."
The eyes and shouts of fear still did not make the sea rpult have any pity. After the bullet was shot into the head at close range, it immediately exploded a fist-sized blood hole in the back of the head. The pale brain was mixed with blood, and soon climbed up the whole stone steps.
Although they were angry, the battalion commander next to him still looked bad. Although the troops rushed forward in the wide port area, after entering the city, the speed was suddenly slowed down. A large number of Spanish soldiers rushed out of the city, relying on houses to cover layers of resistance, and suddenly interrupted the assault speed.
This is not a good thing, especially when the two night eagles brought the news. The Kati Punan army advanced quickly and needed to support the official residence immediately, so the corners of their mouths were even more anxious, but the dense and messy shantytowns made him a little tied up. No one knew whether the soldiers would suddenly come from which wall after rushing in. A bullet flew out of the face.
"Camp commander Chen, I have a way." The tremach saw the trouble of the battalion commander, wiped the blood beads splashed on his face, and pointed to the flat cart behind him, which was ready to pull things: "Let's find a machine gun, put it in the middle, and then build it around with sandbags to open the road. I don't believe that these red-haired devils are not even afraid of machine guns!"
When the battalion commander heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, but if the machine gun is in Gaza, can the car still be pushed?" It's okay. Find a few thick wooden stakes to tie them to the handlebars, and four or five people should be able to push it together. The sea rickle suggested again.
After listening to his words, the battalion commander immediately sent someone to pull two Maxim machine guns. At the same time, he arranged for people to find wooden stakes to stick them on the handlebars of the two cars. He also secretly admired the living bandits such as the harpers. Sure enough, they were people who had been doing business with their heads all year round. They were much better at fighting and killing than their recruits.
In less than a while, the soldiers ran over with two Maxim machine guns. Everyone quickly put the machine guns on the flatbed car. After a few sandbags were piled around, the machine gunner stood behind the car and shot while walking.
When the two trolleys with long handles were completed, the battalion commander and the sea th immediately dragged people to cover the left and right sides, and the machine gun slowly walked to the center of the city under the push of more than a dozen soldiers.
Dya Dya.
Two Maxim machine guns opened fire, and immediately sprayed countless fiery red spots. The machine gunners pulled the trigger and kept shaking the muzzle to sweep left and right. Suddenly, the Spanish soldiers who were ambushed on the walls and corners of the street were killed. The Mauser in their hands could not be compared with Maxim at all, and several wooden houses were directly shot. The rain tore and collapsed.
In addition, the dragged soldiers threw grenades from time to time, and the speed of the advance suddenly became much faster. The soldiers stepped on the scattered streets swept by machine guns, holding guns and picking up leaks at the same time, the team quickly rushed to the official residence in the city.
At this time, a large group of Spanish soldiers suddenly drilled out in front of the road. The two rising machine gunners moved their muzzle to the middle almost at the same time. The bullets swept away like a storm with countless grains of sand. Hundreds of teams had just come out to support the soldiers without even shouting. It was swept into meat dregs by bullets.
Seeing this scene, the Spanish soldiers who were still resistant were immediately scared and ran back one after another.
With the cover of machine guns, the advance suddenly became very fast. When the battalion commander and the Harrot finally arrived at the official residence with the commandos, the night eagles had already ended the battle, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief--
Aquinado's gloomy face looked at the emptied official residence of Davao City, and his chest was like a fire.
He once came here and knew what this luxurious official residence, second only to the Governor's Palace of Manila, looked like, but what about now? The picture frame on the wall was taken away, the silver tableware in the dining room disappeared, and even the Persian carpet originally laid in the living room disappeared.
The most important thing is that the underground secret room was also forcibly blown up from the outside, and all the things inside disappeared. Although I don't know how many there are, even if it is only a few kilograms, it is extremely precious to him at that time!
These damn pirates!
Aquinado took a deep breath and stared at Liu Hengqi coldly, or he had to pretend to be helpless and scolded these pirates for not being unrighteous, and even had a mouthful of soup!
Although this tone is a little difficult to swallow, Aquinado has to resist the impulse to withdraw his finances when he thinks that the pirates who don't know where Liu Henghui invited him can defeat the Spanish warship, because he knows that if the pirates can be in his own hands, then the threat posed by the Spanish fleet. It will be much easier.
Listening to the still dense gunfire outside, Aquinado quickly piled up a smile again: "Mr. Bao, don't worry about it. It's just something for the colonists to enjoy. Just take it as a gift for your partners."
"No." Liu Heng said solemnly: "Mr. Aquinado, don't worry, I will definitely ask for those properties for you, because those should belong to the future Philippine New Deal axes and belong to the people of the Philippines."
"Hehe, thank you." Aquinado smiled and thanked him twice before asking, "Mr. Bao, what do you think you should do next?"
Hearing Aquinado's question, Liu Hengqi immediately swept around, suddenly approached his side, and whispered, "Mr. Aquinado, although the battle outside is still going on, I believe it will be over soon. You know that there are many Spanish farmers in Davao, if you can't take it back as soon as possible. For the people's property, I'm afraid of those pirates.
Aquinado narrowed his eyes. Obviously, Liu Hengyu's words had moved him. In order to solve the increasingly tight finance, it was necessary to think of some other ways.
"I will go to those pirates immediately and tell them that the main war is over, and the rest will be done by the army you lead." The greed in Aquinado's eyes could not avoid Liu Hengqi's eyes, and he immediately suggested while the iron was hot.
"Yes, I think the rest of the war should be completed by our reading. Please thank your friends for me and tell them that they are Aquinado's forever friends."
"Good."
"Come on, protect Mr. Bao from the dock."
In the sound of Aquinado's order, Liu Hengqi walked out of the official residence under the protection of dozens of Katipunan soldiers. When he was about to arrive at the dock, the city behind him suddenly exploded in half, and countless screams surged from everywhere. With screams, the ignition seedlings also rose from every corner of the city.
A few hours later, as the sun rose again, the city of Davao, which had sounded all night of gunfire and screams, was finally captured. A pair of undressed Spanish soldiers put down their weapons and raised their arms. The Luzon soldiers who shouted the slogan of freedom were like a group of hungry wolves, door to door to door. While searching for the Spaniards, he is also desperately collecting every booty.
"Maybe war is like this!"
Liu Hengqi stood on the high sentry tower of the dock. After a group of Kadipuna soldiers in the telescope pulled a Spanish farmer to the street, he chopped off his hands with a machete, and then pulled him all the way with a rope.
Next to, his wife had been striped naked by several other soldiers and forcibly dragged into the corner. Although her eyes could not turn, everyone knew what had happened through her struggling legs.
Flames rose from all over the house where they used to live, and blood sprinkled on every step. Even the local servants hired by Luzon could not hide, and the bodies spread from the garden to the street.
As far as the eye can see, every street, every foreign house, is such a scene. Behind the farmer's broken body, the long blood stain tells everyone to shrink their heads and tremble and hide behind the door of Davao residents. This army under the banner of freedom and reading has completely embarked on a crooked road!
The beast's surname, which was aroused by bullets and blood, finally reached its peak after a night, and Aquinado didn't realize what the order he gave to save the squeaking purse would bring him.
"Go ahead, take pictures of them all, and protect yourself carefully."
Liu Hengyu waved his hand. Soon after, several soldiers carrying cameras and their comrades-in-arms who were responsible for protecting them rushed out of the harbor and ran to the still screaming city of Davao
