Koxinga in 1661 amassed a large military from his base in continental China to invade Taiwan, then held by the Dutch (and called Formosa instead). After 1 year of besieging the godforsaken island, Koxinga finally managed to evict the Dutch out of it.

Now the scenario is this: Koxinga uses that very same military but invades Manila instead. Do you think Koxinga would have been successful in evicting the Spaniards, or would he have failed?
