The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 101 Dowa's Plan

Dowa wanted Tu Hua not just to ensure the safety of the San Fernando Bastion, he also had other intentions.

In his opinion, the reason why Colonel Robin went to the mountains to encircle and suppress the recovery army was defeated.

That's because he failed to attack the bastion of the Restoration Army several times, which caused heavy losses to his own troops.

So much so that the final result turned into a failure of the encirclement and suppression, and Colonel Robin himself became a prisoner.

Dowa wanted to use Tu Hua to anger Zhu Hongyu, making Zhu Hongyu lose his mind under anger, and ordered a frontal attack on the bastion just like Colonel Robin.

If his plan is successful, he can definitely hit the Liberation Army hard!
It even cooperated with the reinforcements who arrived later to attack from both inside and outside, completely solving the major problem of the Liberation Army.

Solve the crisis of Spanish rule in Manila caused by the rebellion of the Restoration Army!

……

Ma Yuanxiang is from Chaozhou Prefecture. In the 13th year of Chongzhen, Chaozhou was flooded, and the flood flooded a large number of fields and houses.

Ma Yuanxiang's house and fields were gone. In order to make a living, he and his family boarded a ship going to Nanyang.

In the same year, he came to Manila, which had just experienced the second Tuhua massacre initiated by the Spaniards!

At that time, due to the brutal massacre of the Spanish, the Chinese in Manila were almost killed.

According to records alone, nearly [-] Chinese were killed.

However, this record came from the hands of the murderer Spaniard, so the credibility can be imagined.

The real number of victims is definitely much higher than this number.

It is not impossible to double or triple the previous one!
At that time, the Chinese in Manila were basically killed.

The result is that much of Manila's society has stagnated and the city cannot function.

In order to solve the social problems caused by the massacre of Chinese, the governor at that time ordered to use favorable conditions to win Chinese immigrants to settle in Manila.

During that time, the Governor's Mansion gave the immigrant Chinese a lot of convenience and preferential policies.

It was at that time that Ma Yuanxiang arrived in Manila with his family.

After he arrived in Manila, he carried bags at the pier, repaired houses, polished shoes on the street, and planted land for manor owners.

After six or seven years of hard work, he finally saved some money and bought a small piece of land waiting to be opened up from the Governor's Mansion.

With Tian, ​​there is hope. Although life is very tiring, he feels extremely fulfilled!

Although compared with the whites and natives, the Governor's Mansion imposed heavy taxes on the Chinese, but with the land, Ma Yuanxiang could bear anything.

Because he can see hope and hope!

The field he bought was in San Fernando, so he settled in San Fernando.

Ma Yuanxiang is hard-working and not afraid of hardships. After all these years of busy work, his family has accumulated [-] to [-] acres of well-cultivated farmland.

Although a large amount of taxes are paid to the Governor's Mansion every year, this place in Luzon is not affected by the climate of the Little Glacier. The climate is hot and humid, and the land can be cultivated three times a year. No matter how heavy the tax is, you can still eat enough.

He had already married a wife and had children, but it was a pity that his wife could not adapt to the climate of Manila after arriving in Manila.

He died of illness early on, and was unable to witness the scene of his son growing up and getting married.

His son's name is Ma Sancai. He just got married at the beginning of this year and took his wife into the house. Although there is no matter of giving birth to a grandson for him yet.

With a daughter-in-law, will the grandson be far away? !

Ma Yuanxiang is now waiting to hold his grandson, as long as he can hold his grandson, his life will be considered complete!

But just today, his originally peaceful life was broken.

Some time ago, news of the defeat of the red-haired soldiers sent by the Governor's Mansion into the mountains to encircle and suppress the Chinese rebels came back, which already made San Fernando panic.

Until today, the news that the Chinese rebel army came out of the mountain and killed San Fernando suddenly spread.

Inside and outside of San Fernando, no matter if they were white, Chinese, or indigenous, they were all panicked.

For Ma Yuanxiang, this was simply a catastrophe.

Banditry is like a comb, soldiers are like a grate!

Although it was the Chinese rebels who attacked under the banner of Daming, Ma Yuanxiang was even more worried.

During the late Ming Dynasty, the military discipline of each army can only be said to be understood by everyone!
The military discipline of the Ming army and the rogues belonged to the kind of big brother, don’t laugh at the second brother, the same garbage is rotten, and burning, killing, and looting are commonplace.

Extorting places, oppressing people, robbing people's daughters, stealing chickens and dogs are basically basic exercises.

Of course, the score is compared with who!

Compared with the Qing army, the military discipline of the Ming army is still good.

I generally do not plunder in the Qing Dynasty, but I slaughter cities in the Qing Dynasty!

Massacre the city with a scale, an organization, a plan, and a goal!

After killing all the people, wouldn't the money and things belong to me?What to grab?What is there to grab?

How can looting be as refreshing as massacring a city!
Although Ma Yuanxiang moved to Manila early and was not harmed by the rebellion, he has also heard the rumor that "bandits are like a comb, and soldiers are like a grate".

Anyway, for ordinary people, going to war will never be a good thing.

So, the moment he heard the news, he took his family and headed for the bastion of San Fernando.

I want to hide in the bastion to avoid disaster from the rebels!

"Father, the city of San Fernando is ahead, we will be safe once we enter the city."

Ma Yuanxiang's son Ma Sancai supported his father and said.

His daughter-in-law at the side also supported his other hand.

Ma Yuanxiang nodded and said.

"Hey, we little people are most afraid of encountering military disasters!"

"Hurry up and hide in the city. The war between the rebel army and the red hair is none of our business. We will go home after they finish this battle."

Ma Yuanxiang is a typical common people mentality, as long as his vital interests are not endangered, he is too lazy to care who the government above him is.

How about the Han people?How about Hu people?What about the red hair from the West?
Don't ordinary people live their lives as usual?

The family continued to line up, and after a while, it was their turn to enter the city.

They were asked to hand over all their weapons, and Ma Yuanxiang obediently handed over his dagger for self-defense.

On the contrary, his son hid a short knife and a dagger, and the short knife was found during the body search, and he almost had a conflict with the red-haired soldier.

Ma Yuanxiang stuffed those red-haired soldiers with several silver coins, and this matter was over.

The family took their belongings and drove an ox cart into the bastion.

Behind them, the red-haired soldier showed an undisguised killing intent on his face, and said with a sneer in Spanish to his companion.

"Hmph, later let me kill that Chinese with my own hands, and then play with his wife in front of him."

"The lowly Chinese dare to disrespect me, it's so boring!"

His companion weighed the silver coin in his hand, and said greedily in his eyes.

"These bloody heretics are really rich, kill them all, their wealth is ours!"

"The chief ordered Tu Hua, it is really a wise decision!"

The two chatted recklessly, thinking that the Chinese around them did not understand Spanish, so they had no scruples or cover-ups.

Ma Sancai, who hadn't gone far, suddenly stopped. He could understand Spanish easily.
