No one took it seriously at all for the temporary merchant legion. Everyone was concerned about weapons. Minnie guns and ordinary fire hat guns were completely different. The lethality was not on the same level. Seeing that Huang Dianyuan could not give a clear reply, Yi Zeng turned to look at Yi Zhizu and said, "May the military gate judge the firearms of the Spanish army?"

"Don't worry." Yi Zhizu said slowly: "Those who know about the Minnie gun are currently only Britain, France and the United States. There has not been any hearing that the three teams have changed their Minnie guns on a large scale. Citigroup did not even use Minnie guns in the war against Mexico. It is obvious that the three countries do not want to expose the Minnie guns too early. Spain and the Netherlands cannot use Minnie guns!"

After hearing this, everyone felt relieved. Yi Zeng said in a relaxed tone: "Then this battle will be much easier."

Yan Yangtian said, "I heard that Manila is a solid fortress?"

"Not bad." Huang Dianyuan nodded and said, "The Manila Royal City is a star-shaped fortress. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a fortress. The royal city is not big, but the wall is tall and strong, twenty-two feet high and eight feet wide. There are many artillery deployed on the city wall, and there is a moat outside the wall, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack."

After hearing this, Chen Hongming curled his lips indifferently. With the huge difference in firearms, even the strongest city walls are all decorations. Yuanqi Group Training does not lack experience in attacking the city. After pondering for a moment, he asked: "Is there a map of Manila?"

"There is a simple map." Huang Dianyuan said and looked at Yi Zhizu.

"The map has been copied by people, and I will give you a detailed combat plan to hand over it." Yi Zhizu said, "The Spanish Empire was the first empire to establish a colony around the world. The colonies are spread across several continents, but there are not many colonies left now.

In addition to being divided and embezzled or sold voluntarily by other powerful countries, some colonies also defeated the Spanish garrison through uprisings, and on their own. Peru, Chile, Bolivia and other countries in South America have been from Spain in the past 10 or 20 years.

As the lessons before, we naturally need to learn from it. How can we firmly control the Nanyang Islands after we capture the Nanyang Islands and prevent them from being divided? This is directly related to our strategic policy of Nanyang, and everyone is discussing it."

After hearing this, the crowd couldn't help but look at each other. This was too far away. The Nanyang Islands have not yet been defeated, which is directly related to the strategic policy of fighting Nanyang. What does this mean?

After pondering for a moment, Yan Yang said, "The military thoughts are profound and beyond the reach of his subordinates. Can you give me some tips?"

After glanced at everyone, Yi Zhizu said slowly: "The Nanyang Islands are far away from the mainland. They are not close to each other, and they are not far away. To be able to control them firmly, there are only two ways.

Our Qing Dynasty has no shortage of people. This is the biggest advantage of the Qing Dynasty's foreign expansion and a huge advantage that Western countries cannot match. If you want to make it happen once and for all, the safest way is to kill all the indigenous people on the Nanyang Islands and then immigrate to Nanyang on a large scale from the mainland."

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but gasp. How many people would they have to be killed? The question is that the natives were unarmed. Huang Dianyuan hesitated and said, "There are more than one million people in Luzon, and Java should also have million people in Java, kill them all?"

Yi Zhizu did not answer directly, pondered for a moment before saying, "If you don't want to massacre the indigenous people, you can only immigrate and assimilate. You must let the Han people occupy the majority of the population in the Nanyang Islands, so that you can prevent the Nanyang Islands from going out in the future.

We are not fighting the South China Sea to colonize the South China Sea, but to permanently incorporate the South China Sea into China’s territory. By adopting this approach, we must treat the South China Sea’s natives equally, so that they can submit to their conscience and consciously and voluntarily."

After a pause, he continued: "Luzon's uprising against Spain has been continuous. If we take a second approach, we can launch Luzon's indigenous peoples to jointly attack Spain and the Netherlands." As he said that, he stood up and said: "You discuss." Then he went straight out of the official hall.

After Yi Zhizuo left, Yi Zeng couldn't help but whisper: "What does military gate mean?"

"The military gate has a long-term vision and must be inclined to kill all the natives." Chen Hongming said in a muffled voice: "And he said it very clearly. This is the safest way."

"Not necessarily." Yan Yangtian shook his head slowly and said, "Although he is not in charge of the troops, it is difficult for the military to make up his mind to massacre millions of unarmed indigenous people. In addition, if we join forces with the indigenous people to attack Spain and the Netherlands, how much casualties and consumption can we reduce?"

Seeing a few people arguing, Huang Dianyuan said, "One thing, you may not know that whether it is Luzon or Java, the Nanyang natives have a bad relationship with the Han people. In order to consolidate their rule, Spain and the Netherlands implemented a segregation policy, and occasionally provoked racial conflicts, creating troubles between the Nanyang natives and the Han people, causing racial conflicts, so as to achieve the goal of dividing and governing.

Over time, the indigenous people of South China were extremely rejected and hostile to the Han people. They massacred Han people on several large-scale occasions, and the indigenous people of South China were actively involved. It was not easy to assimilate and integrate them."

After hearing this, Yi Zeng said without hesitation: "Since that's the case, what else can I say? Just do it once and for all and slap them! Anyway, what we don't lack the least is people."

Chang Bao also echoed: "What I mean is that since you are a group of ungrateful wolves, why bother spending financial, material and energy to assimilate and integrate?"

Yan Yangtian looked at the two of them, then looked at Chen Hongming, sighed, and said, "Those are millions of unarmed people..."

"When they massacred the Han people on a large scale, they never felt soft-hearted." Chen Hongming said coldly: "Since they hate us, why should they raise tigers for trouble?"

Soon, Yi Zhizu returned to the official hall with a few simple maps. When he saw everyone very quiet, he said unexpectedly: "Is there any result?"

Yi Zeng said: "Military, we agree to massacre the natives of the South China Sea once and for all."

Chen Hongming and Chang Bao nodded in agreement, but Yan Yangtian said: "The standard does not agree with massacre of millions of unarmed indigenous people!"

After pondering for a moment, Yi Jingzuo said slowly: "The colonial expansion of the Europeans was a series of bloody massacres. At least tens of millions of native Americans died from wars and plagues brought by Europeans, and tens of millions were killed in Spain alone.

Spain and the Netherlands have been entrenched in the South China Ocean for hundreds of years. The indigenous people in the South China Ocean are also deeply rooted in exclusion and hostility to the Han people. They have also participated in large-scale massacres of the Han people, and their hands are covered with the blood of our compatriots. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are our enemies."

After a pause, he continued: "However, our primary goal in this conquest of Nanyang is to seize control of the Nanyang Islands from Spain and the Netherlands. If we can get the active cooperation of the indigenous people, we will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort. If they support us, we will not be unable to consider assimilation and integration. If we do not support us, we do not need to have psychological burdens."

After hearing this, Huang Dianyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's still the big shopkeeper who is considerate." Although he had no good feelings for the natives of Nanyang, he still couldn't bear to think about massacring millions of people.

Manila, royal city, Governor's Office.

Spanish Governor Jons stood at the window and looked worriedly at the quiet Manila Bay outside the window. Since he learned that the Xiguan Daily published articles criticizing Spain for several consecutive days of massacre of Chinese people, he has been a little restless and restless.

Since the hundreds of years of invasion of Luzon, the huge empire in the Far East has been like a sharp sword hanging over their heads, making them uneasy. England and France have gradually penetrated into the South China Sea, which has also made them uneasy.

A few years ago, England provoked a war and the fleet was large-scale expedition. Spain has been paying close attention to it. Yuanqi's regiment defeated the English fleet one after another and won the great victory in Wusong Zhenjiang, Dinghai, Macau, and Macau. It was really surprising.

After the war, the Qing Dynasty began to establish a navy, first fighting Vietnam and then Japan. In just a few years, it developed to have hundreds of warships and a force of up to 40,000 to 50,000, which was really a pain.

"Your Excellency." Navy Lieutenant Colonel Metterang hurried behind him and said, "There is a clear news that the Qing Nanyang Fleet has gathered in Yulin in large numbers..."

Finally, it came! Jons felt relieved instead, turned around and said in a deep voice: "The empire has fewer and fewer colonies overseas, and the Philippines cannot be thrown away in our hands. I will send orders that all nearby troops will concentrate on Manila. In addition, all the weapons in the warehouse will be distributed to the merchant army."

"As for the order." Metterran responded but did not move.

Jons frowned in displeasure, "Is there anything else?"

Metterland said: "According to reports, the Qing Navy gathered more than 40 large and small warships in Yulin Port, and there were also a large number of marines."

More than 40 warships of all sizes! There are also Marines, with the force of at least 20,000. Jons's face was a bit ugly. Although the Qing Navy was a first-time leader, he had previously had a record of fighting against the British Fleet in Lian Zhan. He did not dare to underestimate it at all. He pondered a little, and then said: "Please come here."

On the 28th year of Daoguang, the second day of May.

A huge fleet of more than 200 warships and various transport ships arrived at the sea surface of Manila Bay. On the flagship "Zhenjiang", Yi Zhizu held a telescope to observe the situation in the bay. The communications official reported: "Eight warships flying Spanish flags were found in the northeast, one big, two middle and five small, and the one big should be a third-class ship with 74 guns."

It seems that the warships anchored in Manila Bay in Spain are preparing to restrain themselves outside? In this way, the United States should have learned about the news of the South China Sea fleet's massive invasion. Yi Zhizu glanced at the captain of the "Zhenjiang" behind him and said, "How to deal with it?"

Le Xiaoqi said without hesitation: "Military Gate, we have more than 60 warships of all sizes. The bidding states think that we will divide all warships into two, put them at the beginning and end, sandwich the transport fleet in the middle, and enter the bay directly, ignore them. Manila Bay is a closed bay. If they dare to follow in, we will be able to close the door and fight the dogs with steamboats."

After pondering for a moment, Yi Zhizu said: "Since Manila is ready, there is no need to rush into the bay." As he said that, he pointed to the island at the entrance of the bay and said: "Send a speedboat to land from several directions and search."

"Yes." The communications officer quickly responded loudly.

Yi Zhizu glanced at the little flag and said, "There are thousands of islands in Luzon. The sea conditions in the north are slightly better, the reefs in the south are covered with undercurrents, and the sea conditions are complex. Be careful everywhere."

After hearing this, Li Xiaoqi couldn't help but be happy. It seemed that he was going to conquer southern Luzon. He immediately raised his chest and said loudly: "Remember the military instruction in mind."

The army was approaching, and the whole of Manila was in panic. The indigenous servants went out to capture the Chinese living outside the city, and the royal city was busy preparing for the war. Before the enemy army had arrived, gunfires were already everywhere outside the city, flames soaring into the sky, and a scene of war.

Seeing that the flames soared into the sky in Manila City, Yi Zhizu's face sank. The other party was preparing to implement a scorched earth resistance policy - to strengthen the walls and clear the fields? What a joke? Is it still a manila city that is just under the attack of his 30,000 troops, still hoping to stand by and wait for assistance?

"The Spaniards are not planning to abandon the city and escape?" Huang Dianyuan muttered softly, looked carefully at the direction of the fire. He quickly reacted and said softly: "Big shopkeeper, the Spaniards should be massacring the Han people."

Yi Zhizu shook his head slightly and said, "It's not a massacre, it should be an arrest. They plan to use the Han people to coerce us." After a pause, he said, "How many Han people are there in Manila?"

"Not many." Huang Dianyuan said: "There are only more than 10,000 Han people in Luzon, and Manila is the most concentrated, which should be around four or five thousand."

"How many Spanish are there?"

"This is not clear." Huang Dianyuan said: "The Royal City of Manila only allows legal whites to live, including Spanish and some mixed-race children of Spanish descent."

Yi Zhizui said in surprise: "The Han people are not allowed to enter?"

"No." Huang Dianyuan said: "Even if the royal city needs some low-court servants, only Malay-Han mixed-race children are used as the ones, and Han people cannot enter the city."

Yi was speechless for a while. The Spanish in Manila were so cautious about the Chinese that they had reached an extreme point. Can this be useful?

"Big shopkeeper." Huang Dianyuan said in a deep voice: "There are many members of the South China Association of Manila, but they have not evacuated."

Yi Zhizu took out a cigarette and lit it. Even if the Spanish coerced the Han people, he would not be able to stop the army. After a while, he said in a deep voice: "This is a lesson."

After hearing this, Huang Dianyuan looked a little sad. Luzon Manila is one of the key development locations for the South China Association, and the losses this time are probably huge!

After pondering for a moment, Yi Zhizu said slowly: "Don't worry too much. Our troops are strong, and the Spanish may not dare to resist stubbornly. After the troops are at the city, I will spread the word to them. If you dare to kill innocent people and slaughter all the royal city, you will not leave any chickens and dogs!"
