The Spaniards rushed into the Port of Kingsoft without regard for casualties. The three turrets in Kingsoft County were too fast to hit, and they did not hit the other one after another. The gap between the red-clothed cannons was long, allowing the Spaniards and the indigenous troops to rush into the port.

Seeing this, the two armed merchant ships from Ganchao had to take the initiative to stand. The two sides fought fiercely. From the early morning to the dusk, three forts were occupied by Spain. The merchant ships in the port were either captured or sunk, and all the Jinshan Army retreated to Jinshan City.

At dusk, indigenous corpses floated in Kingsoft Harbor, and the sea water turned bright red, but the fleet commander Philips had no mercy.

These naturalized Spanish indigenous people have no life at all, and how much death is just a number for the colonists.

According to preliminary statistics, Spain lost more than 3,000 people in the battle to attack the harbor, and the losses were heavy, but most of them were indigenous, and the real Spanish soldiers suffered less than 50 casualties.

Now that the Spanish army occupies the harbor, New Spain's reinforcements and supplies can be transported continuously from the sea, but Kingsoft County cannot get supplies from the Ganchao, and the scale of the war has tilted towards the Spanish.

Commander Philips is full of confidence. The small city-state with 20,000 people will not exceed 2,000 troops. He will be able to take down Jinshan City early tomorrow morning, kill all the Chinese people here, and steal the Chinese gold mines.

It was night when a bonfire was lit on the beach. Commander Philips led a group of people to stand in front of the neatly arranged corpses, and to watch the priest pray.

At this time, in Jinshan City, the depressed mood began to spread wildly.

For the military and civilians of Kingsoft County, the port is not just a place to moor boats, but also a link to Ganchao.

Losing the port now means cutting off their ties with Gan Chao and their relationship with their hometown.

Zhao Ming knew some military affairs and said in a deep voice: "Minister, the harbor is occupied by the Spanish, so we cannot send people to seek help. The Spanish soldiers will be transported here continuously. I think Jinshan City and the gold mine can no longer be defended, so we should evacuate!"

Shi Kai had never fought a war, but he was proud of China's profound history and culture. Even ordinary people could casually say such military strategies as diversion of tigers and secretly traveling to Chen Cang. He could naturally see that the situation was not optimistic.

Shi Kai knew in his heart that even if the port was in hand, Kingsoft County would probably lose in this battle.

After all, Ganchao was too far away from Jinshan County, and Ganjun reinforcements arrived, probably didn't even have a chance to eat the table. They had long been destroyed by the Spanish.

"I'm not willing to give up Jinshan City and the gold mine to the Spaniards!" Shi Kai clenched his fists with hatred.

Zhao Ming and others were not willing to give up. Cutting off their wealth was like killing their parents. Moreover, the Spaniards not only wanted to steal their gold mines, but also wanted to kill them all.

Zhao Ming said in a deep voice: "What does the prefect mean?"

Shi Kai said: "It's too early to break through now. I am the governor of Kingsoft. I have to fight until the last moment. I can't let the Spaniards easily seize Kingsoft City and the Gold Mine!"

Zhao Ming and others looked at each other, left Jinshan and lost contact with Ganchao. Wherever they could go, they would probably be killed by the natives while hiding from Tibet.

"Okay! Since the county magistrate has decided! Then follow the county magistrate and fight to the last moment!" Zhao Ming clenched his fists and said.

Seeing this, everyone expressed their opinions that the crisis of life and death has inspired their blood.

Shi Kai said, "You can't stay here to fight and get rid of your daughter, children, the elderly, as well as gold and supplies!"

Zhao Ming sighed and asked, "Where can we move?"

At this time, Liu Zhongxia raised her hand and said, "Prefect! Zhao Shoujie, I think I can withdraw to Chaoge City!"

Shi Kai raised his eyebrows, "Okay! Brother Liu, you will organize the transfer and withdraw to Chaoge City!"

Everyone discussed for a while, and Shi Kai decided to lead the five thousand young and strong people to continue to defend Jinshan City, so that the Liu brothers would transfer the elderly, weak, women and children in the city, as well as money, food and materials to Chaoge and hide them in the mountains.

At this time, in Jinshan City, the Liu brothers began to organize the people to evacuate. After all, they were escaping, saying that they were transferring money and grain, but in fact, there were only a few trips and they could not complete their belongings. They could only burn most of the supplies in one fire, or be cheaper to the Spanish.

"Prince, look!" Zhao Ming and Shi drove out of the prefect's mansion and came to the city wall again. Zhao Ming suddenly pointed to the beach in the distance.

At this time, the priest saved the dead Spanish soldiers, then lit a pile of fire, ignited a raging fire, illuminating the scene on the beach.

Shi Kai frowned, "What is Xiyi doing?"

Zhao Ming suddenly laughed and said, "Prince, no matter what they do, since they ignite the fire and exposed themselves, why don't we shell a round of shelling and then launch a raid to cover the people's breakthrough?"

Even if the people of Qian Dynasty had never read military books and had heard of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, as long as they could exert their subjective initiative, they would seize the opportunity to attack the enemy.

Shi Kai's eyes lit up and he smiled and said, "Most of the artillery that Your Majesty gave me is sealed in the city. Let's drag it to the city and give them a surprise!"

Gao Huan knew that after the discovery of gold mines in Jinshan County would definitely cause Western colonists to be jealous, so he asked Shi Kai to strengthen the defense of Jinshan County and sent him a hundred heavy artillery to equip the fort.

Soon, nearly sixty red cannons were dragged out of the warehouse, pushed up the city wall, and entered the preset position.

During the daytime battle, three artillery units were lost, and the Jinshan Army's artillery was not enough. Fortunately, they didn't need to be shot too accurately. The artillery only needed to aim at a rough area and then shoot the shells out.

Under the guidance of the old gunner, each cannon was loaded. Zhao Ming waved his hand and roared, "Let it go!"

Sixty cannons fired in volleys, smoke rose up in the city walls, and long gunfires were sprayed out, and more than ten pounds of cannonballs roared towards the beach.

The Spaniards were standing on the beach, burying the deceased. There were crowds of people, so they could not have thought that they would suddenly be bombarded.

The shells hit the pile of firewood, and the burning bonfire exploded, and Mars were splashing everywhere. The Spaniards were hit by the splashed firewood and were injured by the splashed stones, causing the shells to be torn into pieces.

Commander Philips was shocked. He considered that the Chinese might escape at night or launch a sneak attack, but he did not expect that the Chinese would actually have long-range artillery.

Since the Chinese have so many long-range cannons, why don’t they need to fight during the day?

At this time, before Commander Philips had thought it through, the Spaniards on the beach had lost more than half of the money, and the beach was covered with gravel. The solid bullets of the Kings Mountain Army were smashed down and the stones splashed, making the effect comparable to the flowering bullet.

"Kill!" Shi Kai roared excitedly when he saw this.

The gate of Jinshan City opened, and the Jinshan army and miners in the city rushed out with their weapons. They rushed into the beach and killed the chaotic Spaniards.

The Spanish army, which ambushed in other directions of the city to prevent the people of Kingsoft from escaping, rushed back to the original beach.

At this time, the east gate of Jinshan City was opened, and Liu Zhongxia immediately waved and shouted, "Friends, come with me!"

The elderly, weak and weak women and children in the city immediately carried large bags and small bags, pushed the wheelbarrow out one after another, and retreated towards the direction of Gecheng.
