C3097 ambushing army on Huangyan Island (1/2)
”Reporting to the general! Important military intelligence! Manila's main navy all went out, and headed straight for the Brunei! They've been tricked! ”
Xiao Hexin was still tasting his tea when he heard about the military report from Hidden Fog Kid's subordinates. His hands trembled and his big red robe fell to the deck.
The royal white porcelain tea cup that Jing De Town's official kiln produced was worth more than gold, how much did Xiao Hexin use to directly seize it from Jing De Town's list of ingredients used in the Forbidden City.
That year, of all the porcelain used by the imperial family in Jingde Town, all twelve of the highest quality porcelain bowls were in Xiao Hexin's hands. The grade that he used was even higher than that used by the imperial palace.
Usually, he would not be able to let go of this cup of tea, but today, he was completely worn out. If it were before, he would have already trembled with pain for a long time, but today, he couldn't care less as he ran towards the edge of the map while stepping on broken pieces of porcelain.
”All twelve battleships have been dispatched? is the direction really Brunei? ”
”Does the general not believe me? CIA's spies have already been in operation in Luzon for three years, do you still not believe that I do not trust Director Wang's subordinates? ” Hidden Fog Kid rolled her eyes at him, and then said to his subordinates, ”By way of saying it!”
”Yes!” Yesterday afternoon at 4.15 p.m., Major General En Mu personally escorted the Main fleet at the military port to set sail. ”We have more than 200 people at the dock, so nothing could escape our eyes!”
Xiao Hexin rubbed his hands and said excitedly: ”Good good good! Very good, the poisonous snake that I was most worried about has finally come out of its hole. Immediately, I will order the Yellow Rock Island's fleet to set off, and move closer to the Subik Bay! ”
”Order the four Rebellion s to immediately gather their forces and attack south. Assemble in the area of San Fernando and San Rafael to the north of Manila …”
”Hur hur, this year's New Year's, should we eat meat or drink soup? Let's see how we shiver!”
Just three days after Christmas 1870, the situation in the Luzon changed drastically. The Spanish navy had already gathered its main forces and was moving closer to the Brunei.
General En Mu brought her forty thousand soldiers and fifty thousand Indigenous soldiers s to announce that one hundred and twenty thousand had been arranged for the frontlines of the Holy City.
This was the last line of defense north of Manila, and the location was important. The west side of Manila Bay was less than a hundred kilometers away from the east side of Lamont Bay.
A hundred thousand men garrisoned in this hundred kilometer area, General En Mu felt that there was no mistake.
However, he did not know that he had already fallen into a trap set up by the Chinese. Xiao Hexin had never placed his main attack site in the Brunei.
”Brunei is the bait I set out, including the Lan Fang Republic's contribution. This was an agreement we made long ago, we purposely chose the time!”
”The telegram from Europe from the Führer has explained everything. The Führer said that the Spanish Empire is old and weak, not only physically but mentally as well!”
”Regardless of whether they are people or empire, once they get old, they will become very conservative and afraid of losing their leader. This is how the Governor and military commanders of the Philippines look. They must be thinking of self-preservation in the face of our aggressive attacks!”
”Protect the three-hundred-year-old colony left behind by their ancestors and fight for every inch of land. This is their greatest hope, and this is all they'll have left!”
”From the very beginning, they would never consider engaging in a life and death battle with us Chinese. Their strategic plans do not have any thoughts of destroying our forces in groups, because they do not dare!”
