Chapter 788 As long as the Spanish Invincible Armada comes, everything will be fine!

In September 1864, 20 miles northwest of Lima, the Chinatown of Cayao Port, "Ge City", was shrouded in a solemn atmosphere. The Pacific Ocean breeze swept a little salty air and blew through the towering rammed earth wall of the Tulou Cathedral. This fort built by Chinese workers and Inca laborers is a circle larger than three months ago. The original Tulou has become a core fort, with exterior walls built on the outer side and trenches dug. It is still facing the city of Lima to the south. Two rows of wooden stakes were sent to the Royal Felipe Fort and Santa Rosa Fort, pulled the barbed wire, and built eighteen machine gun forts behind the barbed wire, which put the eighteen guns on the 13-year-old Tianli guns.

After this construction, the "Ge City" is now the "center of the South American Revolution" and the "Yong'an City" of the Inca Heaven!

At this moment, outside the earthen building, tens of thousands of people gathered - Inca peasants, Chinese workers, Indo-European mixed races, and even Inca slaves of the white master who escaped from Lima. They were all wrapped in red scarves, holding machetes and spears, and about one-third of them were carrying foreign guns. The thorns on the barrels were shining in the sun - they looked much stronger than the army of the Inca Empire back then! Those foreign guns were not ordinary foreign guns, but Mississippi rifled guns from "Medein Mexico". The white Peruvian soldiers in Lima were not so well equipped.

When those old soldiers had Spanish mothers, they were the old men in the "capital of South America". Without Spanish mothers, they would be nothing, and the smoothbore gun in their hands was enough to be antiques.

However, there are still some good things on the Santa Rosa Fort in the west of Lima. There are 12 Blackley guns imported from the UK, 8 of which are 12 pound guns and 4 of which are 20 pound guns. This is a breech gun that can open the flower bullets and is not easy to deal with.

Therefore, within three months after raising the anti-flagration, Zeng Shuiyuan did not attack Lima City or touch the Saint-Rosha Fortress. Instead, while building the "Gecheng" fortress area, he sent troops to sweep the Inca villages and white manors in northern Lima. He mobilized the Incas through the two big names of "Divine Land and Land Revival" and expanded the "Inca Revolutionary Base".

Up to now, the Inca Heaven has controlled dozens of manors and villages north of Lima, and the Inca and European mixed-race population has exceeded 200,000!

In addition, Chinese workers who dug bird dropping in the Chincha Islands were also mobilized by the Zhenyou Sect, capturing Paracas, a small port near the Chincha Islands, and establishing a base in Paracas. Thus, from south to north, it formed a slit-strike against the Inca, the capital of Peru.

At the top of the earthen building, a brand new flag roared in the wind - the "corn cross flag". Golden ears of corn coiled in scarlet cross, the corners of the flag were embroidered with cloud patterns from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and above the cross in the center, there was the Inca sun totem.

The twelve Napoleon guns lined up in a row, aiming at the direction of Lima. The gunners had already loaded, and they were just waiting for a command.

Zeng Shuiyuan, Ma Shiye, and Manco Kapak stood side by side. Zeng Shuiyuan wore a red robe and had a Taiping knife that had been following him for many years on his waist; Ma Shiye was wearing gold-rimmed glasses and holding an old "Ancient Scroll" of the Book of Documents in his hand; Kapak was wearing a llama short jacket from the Inca royal family, wearing a large cloak, and wearing a yellow hood of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom on his head.

"Boom!" Twelve cannons fired together, and the sound of salutes shook the sky, as if they were about to announce the arrival of a new era.

Zeng Shuiyuan stepped onto the platform, and his red robe was swept up by the wind. He took the ancient scroll of "Shangshu" from Master Ma, raised it high, his voice hoarse but penetrated the crowd:

"The remnants of the Shang Dynasty crossed the sea and crossed the east, establishing their country on the top of the Andes Mountains!"

There was a low noise in the audience, and the Incas looked at each other - they couldn't understand at all, while the Chinese workers whispered.

Zeng Shuiyuan opened the book and pointed to a record: "The Book of Documents: Yu Gong said: 'Going east to the sea, and being in the west to the quicksand.' After King Wu defeated Zhou, the Yin people were unwilling to be slaves, so they crossed the sea and left. When they arrived in Dongzhou, they lived with the natives, so there was the Inca. The Incas were the Yin family!"

When he finished speaking the legend of "the people of Yin crossed the east", Master Ma opened his throat and shouted in Spanish: "The Inca compatriots, according to the records of the ancient Chinese books "Shangshu", "Zhoushu" and "Yin Shu", about 3,000 years ago."

After explaining the "Yin people crossed the east", Master Ma took advantage of the Incas that were not reacting, he raised his hand to point at the city of Lima in the distance: "The Spanish took my land and plundered my wife and children. Today, the Heavenly Father issued an order - the Inca Heaven should restore the land of the Shang Dynasty, implement the Zhou ritual system, equalize the fields and exempt them from taxes, and the world is in harmony!"

The Chinese worker raised his arms and shouted: "Kill the demon!" The Incas responded in Quechua: "Free!!"

Looking at the boiling scene below, Manco Kapak, the "king of man" of the Incas, also stood on the platform and shouted loudly: "The blood of Park Amaru has not cooled down! The white man used muskets to take away our gold and land, turning us into oppressed slaves - today, the Inca Heaven will divide the fields to every worker, whether he is an Inca, Indo-European mixed race, or Chinese! The Inca Heaven will divide the land equally according to "Freedom and Land"!"

There was another cheer below. Capac pulled out the Taiping Sword and shouted: "The True Religion Sect is the Soul of the Incas! When tomorrow is sunrise, 30,000 holy soldiers will be divided into two groups - one to seize the Royal Felipe Fortress and Santa Rosa Fortress, and attack the city of Lima! We must use the blood of the colonists to water the flower of freedom in the Inca heaven!"

The night was as dark as ink, and the torches on the walls of Lima swayed in the wind, reflecting three gloomy faces - Peru President Pezette, Army Minister Galvez, and Spanish Minister Pareja. They stood behind the battlements and stared at the Santa Rosa Fort in the distance.

In the direction of the fort, fireballs kept rising and explosions rolled across the plains in a dull manner. It was the Napoleon guns of the Inca Heaven that were bombarding the fortifications of the fortifications, and each shelling caused the city walls to tremble slightly. The twelve Blackley guns of the fortifications in the fortifications were also trying to fight back, but the breech guns that were supposed to have a higher rate of fire cannon, but now they can only shoot a few shots every five minutes.

"There are only one thousand defenders in the Royal Felipe Fort..." Galvez clutched his telescope, his palm trembled slightly, "Their Blackley guns are not equipped with enough shells, and they can last for up to three more days."

The British Blackley guns were expensive, and the shells used were even more expensive. This kind of gun used a very rare "discrete rifle" and had to be made with special processes. This kind of shell can only be produced by Britain and the United States (North). The output is low, the cost is high, and the price is naturally not cheap. In order to save money, Peruvians only bought 80 shells per cannon, half of which were solid shells.

This kind of artillery has high accuracy and fast firing speed, so it is of course very useful when used to attack warships - a warship can't be beaten with dozens of rounds, but it's not enough to use it to attack infantry. There are only a few hundred rounds of shells, how many people can be killed?

President Pezette's lips trembled: "If Santa Rosa falls, Lima will be besieged..."

Minister Pareja suddenly sneered and patted the president on the shoulder: "Don't worry, the Spanish Invincible Armada is already on the way!"

Pezette turned around suddenly, a glimmer of hope flashing in his eyes: "Our motherland...and the Invincible Armada?"

"Of course!" Pareja raised his head and said proudly, "We have the third most powerful ironclad ship in the world - the 7350-ton Manucia! There is also a 3200-ton steam cruiser and ten warships with smaller tonnages, which are coming at full speed!"

Galvez whispered, “How long will it take to arrive?”

"Two weeks at most!" Pareha said firmly, "As soon as the Invincible Armada arrives, these rebels will be trampled to death like ants!"

At the same time, in the stormy waves of the Magellan Strait, Spain's last "Invincible Fleet" was struggling. On the bridge of the flagship "Numancia", Admiral Casterjo held a brass telescope tightly and observed the "Verakocha" leading forward. The 3,200-ton steam frigate was undulating in the valley, and the black smoke from the chimney was blown away by the strong wind.

"Report to General! The 'Resolucion' fell behind again!" The voice of the communications officer was drowned in the roar of the steam engine.

Casterho sighed lightly. This expeditionary fleet, known as the "Invincible Fleet", was actually made up of a brand new ironclad ship, a semi-new steam frigate, a steam transport ship and several old sailboats.

Among them, the "Numancia" is the only pride of the fleet. It has a 7,350-ton armored beast with 40 heavy artillery pieces, and is the third most powerful warship in the world today. Unfortunately, there is only one in Spain.

The 3200-ton "Verakocha" is OK. Although it is not as armored as a steam ship, it is a 32-pound gun smoothbore gun, which is a bit too small to see.

As for the fallen "Resolucion", it is a 2,800-ton sail battleship.

Fortunately, there is also the "Numancia"! Admiral Casterho thought to himself: "It is the third in the world after all. As long as it doesn't meet two Warriors, it should be invincible!"

Three days later, near the port of Kayao, the defenders of Santa Rosa's Fort were making their final resistance.

"Captain! The south wall has been broken through!" A soldier stumbled in, his military uniform covered with traces of burning gunpowder.

Rodriguez grabbed the last shell, and the 20-pound bullet body was heavy in his hands, and it should be quite powerful, but unfortunately it was the last one.

"Recharge!" He roared, and the gunners used crowbars to stuff the shells into the breeze. When the guns sprayed out the tongue of flames, a burst of cheers came from afar - the Red Turban Army of the Inca Heaven had already broken through the last line of defense.

Rodriguez saw through the smoke that the Indians and Chinese who were wrapped in red scarves were already rushing up with bayonet rifles.

"These damn devils," he murmured to himself, touching the revolver at the waist, then threw the pistol at the "devils", raised his hands and shouted loudly: "Don't shoot, I surrender!"

In the distance, on the Inca Heavenly Kingdom's position, Master Ma gently put down his telescope and said to Zeng Shuiyuan beside him: "We won by Archbishop!"

"Not yet," Zeng Shuiyuan shook his head, "The shells of the San Rosa Fort must have been exhausted, and our 12-pound cannon cannot hit the Spanish ironclad ships, so it depends on our Pacific Fleet next!"

As he spoke, he turned his gaze to the Pacific Ocean to the west, and a few black smoke slowly drifted in the ocean with the wind.
