Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 723 The Hero Appears

Bang bang bang!
The soldiers and civilians of Ming Dynasty jumped up from the ruins one after another, pulled the trigger, and the muskets fired, and the bullets flew out, and the Spanish on both wings couldn't lift their heads.

Either being hit, or lying on the ground trembling.

Regardless of the large number of the Spanish Army, more than 2 people died in battle and more than 5000 were killed.

It's stressful for them.

They fought the natives in New Spain smoothly, and they had never encountered such a tenacious enemy.

You must know that their ancestors conquered the Central American empire with a population of millions with only a few hundred people.

It was fairly easy for the Spaniards to conquer larger empires, but much more difficult to subdue scattered tribes:

It took 500 people to conquer the Aztec Empire with a population of 20 million and an army of 600, plus reinforcements, a total of about 1 people, and it took 2 years. (1519-1521)
It took 500 people to conquer the Inca Empire with a population of 20 million and an army of 180, and it only took a few months including the journey. (1531)
It took 178 years, nearly two centuries, to conquer the Maya region, which consisted of small city-states and autonomous social communities.

Conquered the Mapuche tribe in South America that had not yet entered a civilized society, ruled for nearly 300 years, and still had armed resistance.

Because the Spaniards were not conquered purely by force at all.

Relying on the smallpox virus and civil unrest in the empire.

It can only be said that with good luck, pigs can take off when standing on the wind.

Facing the colony of Ming Dynasty, they completely gave up.

Fortunately, another [-] fresh troops were transported by sea to barely maintain morale, otherwise they would definitely not fight.

There are still 5000 Spanish troops in Jinshan City, and it is true that they are fighting more and more!

Thousands of soldiers and civilians of the Ming Dynasty in the ruins on both sides rushed out of the ruins and street corners with their bayonets upright. The Spaniards who reacted quickly opened fire!
Although the hit rate of muskets these days is low, many soldiers and civilians of the Ming Dynasty fell to the ground when the distance was close.

"kill!"

The red-eyed miner brother threw a grenade, and the explosion raised yellow dust. The blood-soaked soldiers and civilians of Ming Dynasty rushed out of the gunpowder smoke and entered the enemy's line. The two armies fought fiercely.

It has to be said that the Spaniards are well equipped, and a plate armor is not only well protected, but also extremely flexible.

Fortunately, Daming's bayonet was made of good steel, which could barely pierce their defense.

Of course, the Ming people did not kill them. Stabbing the head and neck with a bayonet is the fastest way to kill the enemy.

Daming's steelmaking production capacity is the largest in the world. In order to win street battles, Xiao Wu took out all the breastplates, helmets, and armguards. Everyone wears armor, and he is not afraid of Spanish plate armor in hand-to-hand combat.

After all, there were only a handful of Spanish soldiers who could wear plate armor. Most of the Spanish soldiers retreated in a panic, leaving behind hundreds of corpses under the siege of the Ming army on three sides.

At this time, the soldiers and civilians of Ming Dynasty took advantage of the next wave of Spanish attacks and were still in the process of organizing, so they quickly released the prisoners and withdrew into their positions.

"Brother, are you okay?"

"Youngest, I'm fine, what's wrong with you?"

It turned out that the younger brother of the miner had a hole pierced by a Spanish officer's steel sword. He leaned against the broken wall and said with a pale face, "It's okay, just apply some allicin to me."

In the other half, Lao Bian found Xiao Wu, "My lord, reinforcements from the red-haired barbarians are coming one after another. We can't kill them no matter what. Our ammunition is almost exhausted. If we don't break through, they will die in Jinshan." .”

Xiao Wu also realized that there was no point in continuing to hold on, so he randomly lowered his head and smiled wryly: "There are dead people everywhere in the city, it is estimated that a plague is about to break out, we have already made Spain pay enough, and it is indeed time to break through."

Xiao Wu felt bitter, he was about to become the No. 1 of Xin Ming's lost land.

No matter how hard he is, he can't kill himself. He vowed to take back Jinshan City again, and then he responded to the sky and pleaded guilty to His Majesty.

Just leave as soon as you say, Daming's ammunition has been exhausted, if he is entangled by the Spaniards, he will not be able to leave even if he wants to.

At that moment Xiao Wu ordered that the army clear the way, the fighters were on the two wings, and the wounded were protected in the middle.

Lao Bian asked people to light a fire in the warehouse, and reluctantly scattered the gold that could not be transported all over the floor.

How could Paul let them go? If he didn't honor his father with thousands of Daming people from Jinshan, he wouldn't be able to sleep.

He immediately let the retreating Spanish soldiers attack, but after the Spanish soldiers rushed in, the greedy Spaniards were immediately attracted by the gold all over the ground, and the soldiers began to scramble for gold and silver, put out the fire, and rescue supplies.

Xiao Wu looked back and took a deep look at the ruined Jinshan City, and the prosperous scene of the past came to his mind again.

How much he regretted his views at this time.

At the beginning, all obedient Yin people should be directly naturalized as Daming people, no matter what, there are tens of thousands of people living in the city.

Although the Chaoge tribe was ruled by Daming, there was still a distance between the two sides.

In any case, things had developed to such an extent that he could only hastily ordered the troops to retreat strategically.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in front, and a whole [-] Spanish troops ambushing in the east blocked their way, Xiao Wu saw this with an ugly face, and thought to himself: "Oops!"

Now there are only 500 people who can fight, and the rest are all wounded. How can we fight!
Moreover, the proud big firearm has no ammunition supply, and there is no other way but bayonet hand-to-hand combat.

The eyes of Xiao Wu and the Ming soldiers in the formation slowly became resolute in this critical situation.

"Soldier of Ming Dynasty, come out!"

"Yes!"

Without any hesitation, the remaining [-] soldiers all came out.

"Take a good weapon and die for the miners and young adults, they have paid enough!"

Xiao Wu took his weapon and prepared to lead the charge.

Just when he was preparing to fight back desperately, under the leadership of the two miner brothers, these militiamen also came out!

"My lord, after fighting for so many days, you still don't recognize us as soldiers? We also want to fight!"

Wrapped in a bandage, the younger brother of the miner with white lips said with a wry smile.

"My lord, if I die in battle today, can I enter the Martyrs' Shrine?"

The elder miner stroked the steel knife he had killed countless Spaniards and said.

"Oh, you guys."

Xiao Wu was extremely moved, but he also knew that now is not the time to hesitate.

"After this war, the governor will submit your list to the Ministry of War, and you will be listed as the National Defense Forces, with equal pensions and other benefits."

"If Bendu dies in battle, Lao Bian will help me complete this matter!"

"Now, you are soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, and the governor ordered you to retreat with the wounded!"

Xiao Wu is in high spirits, it is his good fortune to be able to lead such a group of people.

The miners' militia also knew that the military order was like a mountain, so they had to give up.

Just when Xiao Wu was about to make a fatal blow, behind the blocking Spanish army, there was a commotion suddenly, and a burst of passionate horns sounded.

The hero Chen Shichang appeared on the stage. He rode a horse and led two thousand Yin cavalry from the Chaoge tribe, and a group of mysterious reinforcements appeared behind the Spaniards.
