The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 71 Capello's Plan
Robin's meaning is very clear, you go back to Manila and tell Capello to try not to hand over the supplies.

As long as Capello doesn't hand over the supplies, he has reason to delay the attack!
Yada's little life can survive for the time being!
Then take advantage of this time to quickly think of a way to see how to rescue Yada!
For his nephew, Robin has gone to great lengths.

When the Spanish businessman heard the words, he understood the meaning of Robin's words, and knew that he had wrongly blamed Colonel Robin, so he hurriedly spoke.

"Please rest assured, Colonel, I will return to Manila to urge Mr. Capello!!"

Robin nodded, feeling very satisfied.

Not bad, this guy is very good!

……

Manila, the estate of the Scorch family.

Capello kept paced in the study, and in front of him, the businessman sat obediently.

As soon as the businessman explained the whole matter clearly, Capello's face showed unresolved melancholy.

Just when he was thinking about how to save his son, there was another knock on the door, and the old housekeeper walked in from the outside.

"My lord, the Governor's Mansion has sent someone to urge me to ask my Scorch family to prepare the supplies needed to redeem the prisoners of war as soon as possible!"

The expression on Capello's face suddenly became very ferocious, and he angrily swept away the things on his desk.

Books, inkwells, quills, teacups...

A lot of sundries were scattered all over the floor!
"Damn!"

"Damn!"

"Damn!"

"Barossa is too bullying. Could it be that my Scotch family is easy to bully?!"

The old butler asked cautiously and tentatively.

"Master, how do we reply to the Governor's Mansion?"

Capello took a deep breath, his face was uncertain, and then he seemed to have made up his mind and said.

"Tell the governor's office to exchange supplies for prisoners of war, and I will prepare them within two days!"

"Let the Governor's Mansion wait patiently!"

The old housekeeper took the order to reply, and the merchant said with a hesitant look on his face.

"Master, what about Master Yada?"

"Our supplies are ready here, Colonel Robin has no reason to continue to delay the war."

Capello sneered, with a ferocious expression on his face, and said.

"He Barossa is unkind, so no wonder I'm unrighteous!"

Turning to the merchant, he ordered.

"This time we go into the mountains to exchange prisoners of war, and you will lead the team."

"After you arrive at the camp of the rebels with the supplies for exchanging prisoners of war, tell Yada the news that the Governor's Mansion is going to raid the rebels."

"Let Yada sell this news to the leader of the rebel army and keep him safe!"

Capello proved with facts that if a person has no bottom line, he can do anything.

The businessman doubted.

"After Master Ke Yada informed the leader of the rebel army, will the leader of the rebel army go back on his word and still want to kill Master Yada?"

Capello waved his hand and said.

"will not!"

Yada had fallen into the hands of the Restoration Army twice, but Zhu Hongyu had always handed over the money with one hand and handed over the others with the other, no matter what.

Even if Capello has a different position from Zhu Hongyu, he still believes in Zhu Hongyu's credibility.

"By the way, don't tell Colonel Robin about this!"

"He's the sergeant commander in Manila, and I don't want to embarrass him!"

The businessman nodded and backed away.

Two days later, the materials for the exchange of prisoners of war were ready, and the merchants escorted the materials into the mountains along the waterway.

For another three days, the mission escorted a large amount of supplies into the camp of the Restoration Army, and the two sides exchanged prisoners of war.

The soldiers and horses sent by the governor's office to encircle and suppress the recovery army followed far behind the mission.

……

Zhu Hongyu put down an account book in his hand, and looked at the recent consumption of various materials, income and other data, with a relaxed expression on his face.

From the current point of view, the material consumption and income of the Liberation Army are probably the same, and the income is even slightly more than the consumption.

With stable income, the recovery army will not be in danger of sitting on the mountain for the time being, and the biggest hidden danger will be eliminated.

Moreover, Zhu Hongyu has been consciously hoarding various supplies in order to prepare for emergencies.

During this period of time, the warehouses of the Liberation Army stockpiled a lot of food, salt, gunpowder, medicinal materials, lead bullets, artillery shells and other materials.

With these materials in hand, even if the Liberation Army is besieged by the Spaniards, it can persist for a while!
Whether it is from the current or long-term perspective, it is a good thing.

Of course, it's just that the hidden danger has been eliminated for the time being!

The biggest crisis that the Liberation Army will face at the moment is still the attack on the Governor's Mansion in Manila.

Reliable news came from Wang Lixian that the Spanish encirclement and suppression team followed the mission that exchanged prisoners of war, and planned to launch a surprise attack on the Liberation Army after the first exchange of prisoners of war.

Now that the first batch of prisoners of war has been changed, the Spanish raid may come at any time.

He has to get ready as soon as possible!

Zhu Hongyu put down the pen in his hand, raised his head and asked.

"How is the defense preparation? Have the scouts dispersed?"

Shi Yongxin in front of him clasped his fists in salute and spoke.

"Don't worry, the general, all the brothers will not take off their armor, and their guns will never leave their hands. They are ready to go into battle at any time!"

Zhou Tianxu also spoke.

"Jin Yiwei has also dispersed into the forest, if you have any news, please report back at any time!"

Zhu Hongyu nodded vigorously, with a very serious expression on his face.

"The encirclement and suppression by the Spaniards will be the biggest crisis that our Liberation Army has faced since its establishment!"

"According to information, a total of [-] red-haired soldiers, [-] Pampanga natives, and nearly [-] troops were dispatched to Manila for this battle!"

"In terms of military strength, our Liberation Army is at a disadvantage!"

"The situation is very serious!"

Seeing everyone's dignified faces, Zhu Hongyu laughed and said in relief.

"Hahaha!"

"Everyone don't need to worry too much, as the saying goes, soldiers are more skilled than too many!"

"Although there are only a thousand soldiers in our army, we are united as one, and our hearts are stable. Since our relatives and family members are behind us, everyone in the army is determined to fight to the end!"

"Looking at Hongmao again, although it has a large army, the number of real Hongmao soldiers is only [-], and the remaining [-] natives are nothing more than mobs."

"Furthermore, how can the red hair and the natives have the same heart? Although there are many soldiers, but the hearts of the people are not in harmony, what should we do?"

"Furthermore, in this battle, our army is waiting for work with ease, and we are defending the city, occupying a favorable location, and have complete guns, armor and clothing."

"If the red hair dares to commit an offense, it will definitely make him come and go!"

Regardless of the situation of the Spaniards' encirclement and suppression team, whether the hearts of the people are not united, whether the three thousand natives are all mobs, Zhu Hongyu can only say this.

The war is approaching, he must boost the morale of the generals of the recovery army!

If the officers are all fearful and serious about the coming battle, under their influence, how can the soldiers below still have the morale to fight?

Only when the officers are full of confidence in the upcoming battle, can the soldiers below be inspired by the officers to boost their morale.

Morale is something that seems illusory.

But for a war, morale is definitely one of the most critical factors in determining the outcome!
