After an autumn rain, patches of red mist rise from the mountains and wilderness, covering the original mountains and woods, and the earth is filled with a mysterious and desolate atmosphere.

In that jungle, there was an army wearing red military uniforms walking through the wet and muddy jungle.

The number of people is about 20,000.

The soldiers advanced rapidly towards Jinshan County with great difficulty.

When the red mist was blown away by the autumn wind and a scorching sun hung in the sky, the weather suddenly became humid and sultry.

"Sir, it was really hot that day. I thought it would be a little cooler to march in that jungle with those trees covering us."

On the hillside next to the team, I saw Lao Bian Zhaidong fanning his helmet desperately, trying to reduce the heat around him.

As for Xiao Wu, he looked at the surrounding terrain with a telescope. The team was marching to the east of their hillside.

"Let the troops rest for a while, drink some water and eat some dry food, and then continue marching in half an hour!"

Seeing that all the soldiers were sweating profusely and their faces began to reflect in the sun, Xiao Wu looked at the time and then gave instructions.

"No! Order to go east, the entire army will stop advancing and rest in place for half an hour!"

"Stop moving forward and rest where you are!"

"Stop moving forward and rest where you are!"

Soon after the people in the east conveyed the orders one after another, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and started to find a place to walk and start fanning. Some people went to fetch water from the nearby river. That weather was really enough for marching.

hot.

Avoid the sharp edge first, wait until the weather is better, and then start the rapid march.

Half an hour later, the troops continued their march.

Two days later, the weather became cooler and no longer hindered the march.

"Old Bian, where are you going?" Xiao Wu stopped and asked for breath.

Old Bian on the side took out the map and looked at it, "Sir, it is estimated to be more than a hundred miles away!"

"No, it's too slow!"

Xiao Wu looked forward with deep eyes, and then gave an order in a deep voice, "Send the order to go east, and the whole army should speed up. We must reach the destination before October 1st!"

Along the way, many people were exhausted and left behind. Although the Yin soldiers were accustomed to jungle life, but for such a high-intensity rapid march, their physical fitness and physical fitness were far inferior to those of the Ming army. Therefore,

If you are not tall enough, you will fall ill and die from exhaustion on the road.

In Bu Nao, more than 20,000 troops suffered more than 1,000 casualties. After half a month of forced march, they finally arrived outside a forest near Jinshan City before September 28th.

The soldiers are exhausted. If they don't rest, they will definitely not be able to fight.

Xiao Wu immediately ordered the soldiers to rest on the spot.

Everyone was so exhausted that they ate a sweet potato hastily and then fell to the ground to rest.

Iron Man Xiao Wu did not rest. He took several subordinates and Chief Yin to explore the situation of Jinshan City.

At that time, they were lying on the top of a hill not far from Jinshan City, using binoculars to conduct reconnaissance.

Xiao Wu discovered that Jinshan City, which was originally in ruins, had been cleaned up a lot by the Spaniards and slaves.

New Spain has a lot of manpower, can destroy quickly, and can build quickly.

Outside the city, Spain built a concrete smelting plant, and groups of black slaves and Yin slaves, driven by the whips of Spanish soldiers, were carrying the mined gold ore.

After the Spanish captured Jinshan County, they began to mine gold and transported a large number of slaves.

For example, in the Ming Dynasty, the entire Jinshan County, excluding the army, had a population of about 30,000, and 90% of the population were slaves.

"To the north, why are there so many black slaves? Bidong likes black people the most!"

Lao Bian cursed angrily.

Xiao Wu found out that there were black people in Yinzhou territory in the Ming Dynasty, and the problem in Biducheng was serious.

Diucheng, who is so disparate in strength, may not necessarily be punished. After that battle, if you accidentally missed a black man in California, you will really be held accountable by Bidong!

"Old Bian, Old Yin, let's listen carefully. When Jinshan is recovered, we must not miss a single black person. Then they will be sold to the Europeans. Bidong said they like black people!"

"The money sold is divided among everyone!"

"The governor is wise!"

At that time, Xiao Wu was lying on the top of the hill and found Spanish soldiers armed with guns everywhere. There were five thousand musketeers in the Ming Dynasty, so there was really no chance of a strong attack.

Xiao Wu observed for a while and then ordered: "Let the brothers hide nearby. No one can expose himself before the war begins!"

After three days of rest, which was the first day of October, the soldiers were all well hidden. They did not move because they were waiting for a man.

Then no Chen Shichang.

The originally agreed time was on the first day of the Lunar New Year, but the sun was setting and Chen Shichang's marines were not seen coming in their sailboat.

"Sir, why did Captain Chen come so unexpectedly?" Lao Bian couldn't help but ask after taking a bite of sweet potato.

Xiao Wu was also worried. Could it be that Chen Shichang had been discovered by the Spaniards and had died?

Or maybe he was running away after being discovered.

Whatever the reason for Bulong's absence, it's not bad news for them!

Xiao Wu was worried in his heart, and he said confidently: "Just wait, Chen Shichang will definitely come!"

In fact, Chen Shichang didn't want to come, but they found that there were many patrol boats in Hongtian's Jinshan Port, and their targets could easily be exposed if they were not careful.

In the morning, the Spaniards' defense was lax, which gave them the best opportunity.

Just like that, the army of the Jinshan Governor-General of the Ming Dynasty finally waited for a strange sailing ship in an anxious state of mind.

The mainmast of the ship was there, flying the Spanish flag of Castile and Leon, while the other two masts were there, but they were flying a red flag and a red flag as identification.

Xiao Wu couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw it, "Chen Shichang is here, tell the brothers to prepare for battle."

The sea surface is there, the sailboat is cutting through the waves, standing on the deck, with a determined expression.

While investigating the enemy's situation, some subordinates also suggested returning directly to Honolulu for help. It would be too dangerous for a ship to directly attack the port.

That suggestion was flatly rejected by Chen Shichang, who had already agreed with Governor Xiao Wu that he could not let Xiao Wu go.

What's more, he also wants to avenge his past humiliation. He clearly remembers the destruction of the warships in the sub-governor-general, and his revenge lies in the bright moon.

At this time, the sun had set in the east, and the Spaniards outside the harbor also spotted the ships, but the porters did not have any suspicion.

The water legs of the patrol boat were all having dinner. They didn't want to move, so they thought there was no need to inspect the sailboat that was transporting slaves.

Neither the fort nor the ships outside the harbor responded at all, allowing Chen Shichang's sailing ship to sail into the harbor.

Although the ship appears just outside the harbor, the actual distance is very far, and it will take a long time to sail into the harbor.

At that time, Chen Shichang was standing on the deck. The Ming army was well hidden and he could not find their location at all. He wondered if Xiao Wu had already arrived near Jinshan. After all, marching in the jungle was more difficult.

At this time, on the top of the mountain, someone took out a silver mirror and reflected the moonlight towards the sailboat.

The Marine Corps soldier immediately discovered the signal and said, "Sir, look at that hill!"
