Chapter 86 Despair!

Nineteen captured warships, plus the original three of the Liang family, and five under the command of Shi Xianggu, a total of 27 tall warships. The total number of heavy guns on one side is more than 500. On the wide sea outside the dock, there is a linear array, and the rumbling gunfire like thunder is like the fire of hell. The mountain rose to the sea and was pouring hot magma to the Manila wharf.

So that many Spanish soldiers and armed civilians hiding in the bunker were either bleed by the strong shock wave, or buried by the mud and sand raised by the heavy artillery.

There was a lot of panic in Manila. The Spaniards hurriedly avoided, regardless of the lady and gentleman's manners. Some people even had no time to wear shoes, so they held their children, took their wives or lovers, and ran desperately towards the south gate of Manila.

Originally, the city only relied on the guards of more than 100 people in the governor's mansion to maintain order. Now, in addition to one more musket in their hands and a dagger in their waist, their eyes full of fear and despair, as well as the hurried footsteps and shouts, are not much as those timid civilians. The difference.

"Mr. Governor, I suggest you leave Manila immediately." Major Diego pulled out the command knife around his waist, nodged to Governor Marcelo, and resolutely walked to the gate.

" Major, Major Diego, where are you going?" Governor Marcelo's six gods are like a gambler who was found by a creditor.

Major Diego's face showed a bleak smile: "My soldiers are struggling under the enemy's gunfire. As commanders, I must command them to fight and let those damn Qing pirates understand that we Spaniards do not lack the courage to fight even in the face of strong enemies. Keep up, Governor.

Looking at Major Diego's back, Governor Mahanro sat feebly in a chair. It's like an old man who is terminally ill. His trembling lips muttered to himself, "Manila, the most important colony of the kingdom in the East, is it over? God, where are you..."

--------------------

This completely Western-style building looks so white and flawless in the sun, and those windows even inlaid with metal look extremely luxurious in the sun, but now it seems to be stained with a layer of rotten gray.

The roar of the cannons that changed the wind and clouds is still continuing, like a never-ending storm. On the dock, you can no longer see those soldiers who bravely fight back, only a pile of broken bones, and those horrible pits smashed out by heavy artillery. There are ruins everywhere. On the dock, you can hardly see one again. The finished thing, from time to time, roared and smashed the blockbuster shells, and raised another layer of flying ash and debris flying across.

"Is this the pearl of our kingdom, the beautiful Manila City Pier?" The command knife in Major Diego's hand trembled slightly, and the 150 Spanish soldiers and 200 heavily armed civilians who rushed to the edge of the dock with him were also trembling. Their hands with guns, their feet standing on the ground, and even their hearts and souls were all in the gunfire of the molten city to destroy the country. Trembling!

At this time, there were armed gunboats of the Spanish Luzon fleet returning from cruising in the distance. Although they bravely attacked these invaders, the other side's warships still bombed the dock indiscriminately.

And those armed gunboats and fast boats that have been waiting impatiently are like a group of wolves, rushing madly on the courageous Spanish navy. The ending has been placed on the table, waiting for their fate, either to be sunk or captured.

Liang Pengfei saw in the telescope that the dying struggle of the Spanish gunboats was exchanged for a fierce artillery attack. Even a gunboat was sunk into the sea by crazy gunfire before it could turn.

"These prodigal children! At least a gunboat is tens of thousands of taels of silver. How can it be such a waste? Damn Zhang Xingba, when he comes back, I must kick his ass fiercely! It's just that I don't feel sad to sell my father's field. Master Liang gritted his teeth and scolded sadly, and Shi Xianggu couldn't help listening to it. At this moment, she felt that Liang Pengfei's behavior and heart and surname were in line with his immature age. Looking at Liang Pengfei, there was a trace of intimacy.

The excellent tradition of the Spanish navy did not stop the fear of death. After that crazy siege shelling, the remaining Spanish ships that did not want to end up like the gunboat just now soon raised the white flag. Seeing this scene, the pirates couldn't help cheering, and their morale was getting more and more excited!

"It's over, the Luzon fleet of the Kingdom of Spain has been completely destroyed..." Major Diego's mouth smiled bitterly. All the hopes have been completely dashed at this moment. Now they are still supporting them to stand here. It's just a long-standing training, and the kind of desire to prove their courage with death. It's just the determination...--------------------

"Battleship, nearly 500 meters, rearrange to shoot, and blast the walls of Manila into rubble!" Liang Pengfei was quite satisfied with the effect of the shelling, and the effect of hundreds of heavy artillery shelling made Liang Pengfei proud and so happy.

Shi Xianggu, who had the same emotion, also whispered, "Fortunately, those pirates and Spaniards were forced to surrender that day. Otherwise, the consequences would be a little unpredictable."

Hearing the words of Shi Xianggu beside him, Liang Pengfei smiled and said, "It's a pity that there are not so many assumptions in the world. Now, these sharp weapons that attack us have become our means to deal with them. I don't know what kind of expression Governor Luzon will have now. I really want to see that stupid bird."

"Liang Shao, can we go ashore? Now it seems that there is no sign of resistance at the dock. Shi Xianggu raised her eyes and looked at the tall Liang Pengfei beside her. I don't know why, now Shi Xianggu feels that there are many things. She no longer hides in her heart as silently as before. She prefers to raise the problem and leave it to this young man who is several years younger than herself to solve it.

Liang Pengfei shook his head: "No, I haven't hurt them yet. More importantly, I want to beat them a few more times to let them understand who is the boss here."

Shi Xianggu rolled her beautiful white eyes speechlessly, and her delicate expression made Master Liang's mind sway. Shi Dakai watched the conversation between the two with cold eyes. After seeing Master Liang's squinting expression, he coughed with dissatisfaction.

"Brother Shi, what's wrong with your voice? Is it to make the gunfire smoke uncomfortable? Do you need someone to bring you a glass of water?" The cheeky young master Liang's concerned expression was like his brother-in-law's affection in concern for his brother-in-law, which made Shi Da open a black line on his face, and goose bumps appeared one after another.

"No, thank you, Liang Shao. What do you want to do with those Spanish officers?" Shi Dakai quickly inserted the topic and shook his chin in a certain direction on the side of the ship, where there stood eleven Spanish officers besides Colonel Alfonso. Their pale cheeks, trembling legs, and scattered eyes exposed their inner shock and fear of death.

"They?" Master Liang raised the corners of his eyes and looked at the trembling plague chickens, and his eyes were full of disdain. Naturally, after our shelling, let them become envoys to persuade the Spanish governor to surrender.

"Persuasion to surrender?" The sergere Lu subconsciously took out his ears, right? The young master actually wants the other party to offer a drop table?

Shi Xianggu's doubtful eyes were also projected on Liang Pengfei's body. The pirates behind him also looked at Master Liang stupidly.

"What, can't the governor of Luzon of Spain surrender to a pirate leader?" When Liang Pengfei saw these stupid goose-like subordinates, he felt angry.

"Of course, but young master, let's come to Luzon. Aren't we here to rob?" A little leader stood up and asked a very stupid question.

Master Liang tilted his nose angrily and kicked him: "Silly bird! Which one do you think is more fulfilling, resisting our robbery with knives and guns, or offering wealth with obedient hands?

The little pirate leader who was kicked laughed dryly: "The young master is wise and powerful, of course, the latter has a sense of accomplishment."

"If you dare to choose the former, the young master will definitely hang you on the mast and turn you into dried meat." Bai Shusheng whispered in a gloating voice.

"I say you, scholar!" The little boss raised his middle finger at the bad embryo of the white scholar with hatred.

"Allie, don't quarrel with me. If you quarrel again, you can jump into the sea and wake up!" Master Liang rolled his eyes and looked at the approaching city of Manila. At this time, the warships began to cross again, and the artillery stretched out their ferocious muzzle from the gun window and began to aim at the wall of Manila... Seeing that the shelling stopped, he thought that the Qing pirates were ready to land on Diego. The major summoned up his courage and led the excellent soldiers and those brave civilians to rush into the dock and clean up the bunkers. Although the fortifications and shore artillery positions have been completely turned into ruins, Major Diego still hopes to arrange a line of defense before the other party rushes to the dock to let those Qing pirates. Try their strength.

But a position was simply cleaned up, so that the soldiers were arranged in a battle formation. The other party's warship stopped again, and the naval guns bombarded again. Major Diego closed his eyes in despair and held his head high to the ruthless meteorite-like gunfire outside that day. However, he only heard the shrill of the heavy cannon. He crossed his ears, and then there was a huge explosion and collapse behind him.
