[Chapter 924 Showdown]

in the north of Manila.

The Francine soldiers in front of the coast were under shelling.

Under Pan Chang’s command, the marines broke through the weak defenses in the north of the city and directly inserted into the city of Manila.

Unlike the desolation of Bamboo, Manila is obviously much more prosperous.

In addition to the many thatched houses on the outside, the more you go in, the more brick and stone houses there are.

There are even French-style buildings in the center near the coast.

“Quick, quick, quick, occupy the important streets and intersections in the city, look for cover, and set up obstacles.” Standing on the main road in Manila, Pan Zhang kept ordering the generals passing by.

Because it was not expected that the main force of the Marine Corps would attack from the north.

The Franc robots only deployed a small number of soldiers in the north of the city, hoarding heavy troops on the front coast.

So, when they arrived, they easily broke through their defenses and entered the city of Manila.

“General, a large number of French soldiers and indigenous soldiers are pouring into the city of Manila from the coast.”

At this moment, the general of the Marine Corps in charge of investigation sent the latest situation on the battlefield.

“How many are there?” Pan Chang asked.

“There are more than 8,000 Flangji soldiers, and the rest are indigenous troops.” The general in charge of the investigation said.

Pan Chang nodded, and immediately said to the messenger, “Pass on the general’s order, and focus on attacking the Frangji soldiers.”

According to the information he got, the Western Turk Army in the Southern Region is currently equipped with a lot of front-loading rifles.

These muzzle-loading rifles were naturally more of a threat than flintlocks.

Therefore, they want to annihilate the Western Turkish army equipped with line guns as soon as possible.

As for the native army, he really didn’t care at all.

He didn’t think that these natives could go through life and death for the Frangji people.

Its morale is probably not as good as that of the powerful army.

His order was issued, and the generals of the Marine Corps immediately led the soldiers under their command to go in the direction of the French soldiers.

The distance between the two sides gradually shrank to 500 meters, and the marine soldiers who had been marching on the street immediately dispersed.

Some soldiers squatted in front of a pile of wood, aiming at the Franc machine soldiers, and some soldiers entered the houses and aimed through the windows.

There were also soldiers who climbed onto the roof and looked down on them.

Before the Marines arrived, Frangi soldiers also entered the city.

Marines were found, and they also resorted to skirmish tactics.

The Franco soldiers also looked for obstacles, relying on the obstacles to prevent the marines from rushing to the coast and outflanking them.

The two sides stalemate for a while in Manila West City.

“Go!”

After the indigenous army arrived, Colonel Barensa waved his hand, signaling for the indigenous army to charge, and they took the opportunity to shoot and kill the Dasong soldiers.

Under his order, the brown-skinned native soldiers rushed towards the defensive area of the Marine Corps army screaming.

“This group of robbers know how to fight, bah!” Seeing this, Pan Chang couldn’t help spitting.

Beidi likes to let the servants go to the battle before fighting.

This is clear to every Dasong soldier, so seeing the tactics of Frangji, he naturally thinks of Beidi.

“Bang bang bang…” At this moment, intensive gunfire rang out, and marine soldiers leaned out from all corners, shooting and killing the rushing natives.

The soldiers on the roof also took out grenades and threw them among the natives.

The natives who charged suffered heavy casualties in an instant.

This group of natives was obviously frightened, and the first wave of soldiers withdrew after rushing for less than fifty meters.

“Get ready.” Just as the marines were shooting, General Frangji asked his soldiers to stare at the roof in front of them.

They sent the native army to verify an intelligence provided by Britain.

That is, the Dasong army has installed a musket that can be loaded from the rear.

If that’s the case, the Daesong army wouldn’t stand up and shoot from behind rooftops, obstacles.

After waiting for a while, General Frangji’s mood became serious.

Sure enough, after the intensive gunfire, they didn’t see a single soldier getting up to reload, and everyone was still hiding.

“What a terrible fact.” Balenza’s heart sank.

He knew about muzzle-loading rifles, but not about the capabilities of the Great Song army muskets.

The Britons just said that during the Dasong civil war, the Shizu and Beidi were beaten badly by the muskets of the King Yan’s army.

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly noticed that when the Dasong army was repelling the indigenous army, the soldiers at the front quickly came out of the alley, rushed forward into the front alley, and kept approaching.

The soldiers moved very quickly, and as soon as they left their hiding places, the Frangji soldiers fired at them.

However, before they had time to pull the trigger, they were attacked by other Dasong soldiers as soon as they exposed their bodies from the wall of the alley.

Even when they were hiding on rooftops they were attacked.

They were obviously covering the advance of these soldiers.

In an instant, at the front of the entire confrontation, Dasong soldiers approached more than ten meters forward.

Due to the attack, many Frangji soldiers fired a shot before they had time to aim.

These soldiers are now in an embarrassment instead.

Especially the soldiers lying on the roof, they had to get up to reload their muskets.

Standing up means that they are exposed to each other’s guns.
