September 1, 1896, Tuesday, Kuwartel Heneral, Pangulo ng Balangay Pilar,

Captain municipal G. Jose Tagle went to Rectory in Cavite el Viejo with Emilio
Aguinaldo to talk and have a meeting about the attack that they were going to held
against the Spaniards. They choose Emilio Aguinaldo to lead the first attack towards
the Spaniards. Aguinaldo immediately gathered the “Tropang Gulukan” with a body
count of approximately 600 battler. Aguinaldo encourage his troops for their first
battle. They have only few guns: 3 Remington that they stole from Guardia Civil, and
1 Eskopeta de Piston. And a group of marching band. They begin to move towards
from war with a marching band playing the song “Batalla de Jolo”. The band is very
helpful and it encouraged a lot of men to joined the attack. Aguinaldo noticed that
they have now 2,000 battlers behind him. Aguinaldo began to learned on how to make
a strategy before going to attack “estrategia militar” and he even divide his army into
three parts. After that, they began to invade the convent. The positioning in the war is
Baldo Aguinaldo and troops was in lilibawa sa dakong hilaga o norte, and Captain G.
Jose Tagle is positioned in front o liwasan ng kumbento at simbahan. Aguinaldo say
the word “avance” and “sisid” as a “hudyat” to start the attack. After reaching the
convent, They only seen inside the convent was Padre Buenaventura that immediately
kneel down and asking for mercy to Aguinaldo but Aguinaldo immediately response
and say “Tindig, at hindi kami kalaban, kayo pa ang aming ipinagtatanggol”. Padre
Buenaventura told them that Frayle and Guardia Civil escape after they hear and see a
lot of enemy troops towards the convent to make an attack. After that event they
gathered again and make a plan for the next attack towards Hacienda. Hacienda is
surrounded with a strong and high wall with an area of 5 hectars. They go to
Hacienda . Due to frequent firing of the Spaniards, a lot of his troops died and retreat
and changed their plans. Aguinaldo wander around the wall of Hacienda to find a
strategy and a way to enter the Hacienda. After he finished the plans for the attack.
The people of Imus invited Aguinaldo and all the battlers to have a feast. The number
of battlers increases up again to 2,000. And after that he passed the leadership to Jose
Tagle to make and lead the battlers in war. Aguinaldo and his troops went to Cavite el
Viejo to secure that Cavite el Viejo is safe. The article also shows the family
orientedness of Emilio Aguinaldo because despite of being busy, he also managed his
life and visit his family. I see the unity of all the Pilipino because Ginang Macaria
Olaes offers her bangan ng palay and her meats to the poor. The mother of Aguinaldo
is also generous she also offers her bangan ng palay and gives her meat to soldiers
who are injured in the hospital. I can see in this scene the of charity of Pilipino people
because of what they want to get and that is only freedom. He came back to Cavite el
Viejo, Aguinaldo noticed “Juicio Sumarismo” event is happening. The bankero
named Gaudioso Samaniego is the person who transport Kura Fray Fidel De Blas who
went to cavite. Gaudioso have been condemned to death because of helping Kura Fria
to escape. The penalty is being waited for the approval of Aguinaldo but Aguinaldo
doesn’t want Gaudioso to be penalized because Aguinaldo is very mindful and he saw
the other side of the story. The bankero only did his job as a bankero and Aguinaldo
believes that the bankero is willing to help the Filipinos to get the freedom. The
reaction of punong bayan Tirona is happy to see Aguinaldo is safe. Tirona is very
positive that she really thinks that she will won the fight at Imus. September 3, 1896
in the morning, Jose Tagle came up to Cavite el Viejo to call of them to move to Imus
because the Spaniards are in Bakood. The tropa walk with the lead of Heneral
Aguinaldo and every Pilipino that they encounter join their troop. After they came to
the check -point, Aguinaldo ordered his troops to hide and hold the fire and wait until
he did the signal to attack. The battle between the Filipinos and Spaniards already
began. The Spaniards rapidly fired the Filipinos while the Filipinos doesn’t throw any
trade. The Filipinos realized that the bridge is broken so they cant go on the other side
of the bridge. A moment after, the group of Aguinaldo reached the other side of the
river. After that, the intense between the two groups increased. Aguinaldo picked up a
Riple Winchester and he used it against the Spaniards. Riple Winchester was very
effective and it is very useful to make them win the battle. After a very long run the
Filipinos won the battle against the Spaniards and that is the very first victory of the
Filipinos against the Spaniards. The revolutionary of the Filipinos continued to move
and search for weapons and increased their man power. The gathering of the
Magdiwang and Magdalo which was held in Hacienda of Tejeros, San Francisco De
Malabon in March 22 which was driven by Andres Bonifacio. The race for president
has just two applicants the Haring Bayan Andres Bonifacio and General Emilio
Aguinaldo. After the decision turned out General Emilio Aguinaldo, was the chosen
as the President. For the Vice-President Supremo Andres Bonifacio was selected once
more, however he was vanquished by The Minister of Grace and Justice General
Mariano Trias. Following the decision for Captain General, previous Captain Santiago
Alvarez, and General Artemio Ricarte were designated. Albeit General Ricarte
protested his race, he was pulled back and after that it pursues the announcement for
him.In the Secretary of War, Supremo Andres Bonifacio was once again an applicant
and his opponent was General Mariano Riego de Dios the Minister of Development in
Magdiwang. The Supremo was vanquished, and this was his third thrashing in the
race. In the Secretary of Interior, Supremo Andres Bonifacio by and by entered the
nomination and his adversary was his two Magdiwang Ministers, Mr. Severino De
Las Alas and Mr. Diego Mojica. In this decision Supremo Andres Bonifacio
succeeded, and as a custom he was announce as Secretary of Interior. In any case,
General Daniel Tirona restricts and said "It sometimes falls short for Supremo Andres
Bonifacio, on the grounds that he isn't a legal counselor, and Attorney Jose del
Rosario merit the position" and this is the place the unsettling influence in the
gathering began. The journals of the insurgency uncovered a considerable measure of
untold stories behind the Philippine history. It gives the perusers an earlier learning on
what are the explicit occasions that occurred amid the colonization of the Spanish and
Americans. The diaries of the unrest additionally centered around the war systems
that were produced by the katipunans. It likewise clarified the distinction between the
two groups which are the Magdalo and Magdiwang group. Emilio Aguinaldo's
perspective gives an alternate, yet not outstanding, perspective of how American
dominion was set up in the Philippines through the eyes of the Philippines' first
president, Emilio Aguinaldo. He is credited for driving the transformation against
Spanish standard, which the filipinos had continued for more than 300 years. In
accordance with some basic honesty, Aguinaldo united with the US to crush Spain
and drive the Spanish from the islands, just to be sold out by the Americans. Quite,
Aguinaldo additionally worked vivaciously to expel the US from the islands and give
the Philippines genuine independence.
