The Tondo Conspiracy

The Tondo Conspiracy of 1587, popularly known as the Conspiracy of the
Maginoos (Spanish: La Conspiración de las Maginoos), also known as the Revolt of the
Lakans, was a revolt planned by Tagalog nobles known as maginoos, led by Don Agustin de
Legazpi of Tondo and his cousin Martin Pangan, to overthrow the Spanish government in the
Philippines due to injustices against the Filipinos.[1] It was territorially one of the largest
conspiracies against the Spanish rule next to the Katipunan. It ranged from provinces
near Manila all the way to the Calamianes Islands near Palawan.[2]
Legazpi sought help from a Japanese sea captain named Juan Gayo who was a Christian and
asked for arms and warriors to fight alongside them in exchange for one-half of the tributes
collected in the Philippines.[1] They also requested help from places such as Borneo, Laguna,
and Batangas with a plan to assault the city of Manila and assassinate the Spaniards. However,
their plan was discovered by the Spaniards when Magat Salamat revealed their plan to fellow
rebel Antonio Surabao, who turned out to be a traitor when he reported the conspiracy to the
Spaniards. Consequently, the rebels associated with the conspiracy were punished, with some
being put to death and others being exiled. The plot against the Spaniards died alongside them.

Cause for the revolt

Numerous datus were not in favor of the Spanish rule as they had conflicting interests with
regard to authority and freedom. An instance of such is the waning obedience of the slaves to
the datus. This was brought about by the initiatives of the Spaniards to abolish slavery in hopes
of shifting the slaves' allegiance from the datus to the kingly Spaniards. Furthermore, this
elimination of slavery had institutionalized how the slaves were obligated to pay their tributes to
the Spaniards instead of the datus. They had been reduced to vassalage, thus the plan of
rebellion of the datus against the Spaniards.

Planning of the conspiracy

All conspirators went planning for three days, pretending to be merely celebrating and drinking
as they were keeping their planning under the covers. As they recalled the good old times before
the Spanish conquest, they had strengthened their unified bond. Subsequently, they agreed that
they would always protect each other and if the Spaniards' initiatives toward the freedom of the
datus' slaves were reinforced, they would unite in preventing this to come into fruition.

Aftermath

There were harsh penalties given to the conspirators, especially to the leaders Agustin de
Legazpi and Martin Pangan who were brutally hanged while their heads were chopped off and
placed in iron cages.[1] Their properties were also seized, with half going to the royal treasury
and the other half to judicial expenses. Furthermore, their homes plowed and sown with salt to
remain barren.[1] A similar fate occurred to Dionisio Fernandez who was also hanged and his
properties confiscated. Other conspirators who were executed were Magat Salamat, Geronimo
Basi, and Esteban Taes.[1]

While some people were punished severely, others were let off on a milder sentence such as
paying heavy fines or being exiled from their towns. Notable members who were exiled to New
Spain were Pedro Balunguit, Pintonggatan, Felipe Salonga, Calao, and Agustin Manuguit.
[1]
Balanguit was charged with six years of exile and payment of six tael of orejas gold,
Pintonggatan with two years, Salonga with eight years, Calao with four years, and Manuguit with
six years of exile and payment of 20 tael of orejas gold.[5]
Ironically, Agustin de Legaspi's family, including his wife of Bruneian Caliph descent, passed
through California, which was named after the female Caliph in the novel 'The Adventures of
Esplandián', on their route to Mexico. Their exile had also made them some of the earliest
Filipino immigrants to the Americas. Later on mixed Christian-Muslim families of newly
Hispanized Philippines at the Americas, opposed the issue of slavery in the Americas. They were
on different sides to the issue of slavery compared to their Crypto-Muslim and Crypto-
Jewish Spanish co-religionists, who supported slavery in the Americas[8] Filipinos in the Americas
were firmly in support of Native American and African struggles against slavery.

The Untold Story of 'Miss Fernandez,' the School Teacher Who Killed 200
Japanese in WWII
Nieves Fernandez was the only female guerrilla commander in WWII.
by MARIO ALVARO LIMOS | SEP 15, 2020

Nieves Fernandez was a school teacher in Tacloban. Her life was upturned when the Japanese
invaded the Philippines in 1941. Her students call her “Miss Fernandez,” and she was very protective
of them. Her fierce motherly instincts reared to the fore when the Japanese threatened to kill her
students. She turned from motherly school teacher to stealthy lone assassin, credited for downing
more than 200 Japanese soldiers in World War II.

The Silent Killer

When the Japanese arrived in the Philippines in 1941, they took away all the possessions of Filipinos.
No one was allowed to own businesses, and no one was allowed to teach anything except those
approved by Imperial Japan.
In her hometown of Tacloban, the Japanese forced business owners into submission by drenching
them in scalding water.
“When the Japs came, no one could keep anything,” Fernandez told a reporter from the Lewiston
Daily Sun in November 1944. “They took everything they wanted.”
Fernandez decided to take matters into her own hands after the Japanese took away her possessions
and small business and threatened to take away her students as well.
Fernandez became known as “The Silent Killer.” Alone and dressed in all-black attire, she would set
up ambushes in the jungle armed only with a makeshift shotgun, which she made out of a gas pipe,
and her bolo. For two and a half years, Fernandez carried out ambushes on her own. She would head
into the jungle barefoot, taking out dozens of enemy troops alone.

In this photo taken by Stanley Troutman in 1944, Fernandez demonstrates to an American soldier
how she silently kills Japanese soldiers. She targets the carotid artery and the jugular, instantly
killing her enemies.

From Teaching Kids to Training Guerrillas

Eventually, her heroics inspired a following among Tacloban’s men. Fernandez shifted from teaching
the alphabet to schoolchildren to training men how to kill silently. From being called “Miss Fernandez”
by her pupils, she earned the title “Captain Fernandez” among the 110 guerrillas under her
command.
Her small guerrilla army became so efficient and deadly, the Americans were astounded a woman led
them. In fact, Fernandez was the only female guerrilla commander in the Philippines during
World War II.
P10,000 Bounty on Captain Nieves Fernandez
The Japanese grew so weary of Fernandez they decided to put a P10,000 bounty on her head in the
hopes that her fellow Filipinos would betray her.
But no one did.
Throughout the war, Fernandez and her 110-strong company would liberate prisoners of war,
sabotage Japanese supplies, and conduct hundreds of raids on the Japanese Imperial Army in the
Philippines.
Toward the end of World War II and when the Americans arrived on Leyte in 1944, Fernandez and
her guerrilla forces had already liberated many villages from the Japanese and freed dozens of
comfort women.

(Many Filipinos are expert at making effective guns out of gas pipe, The weapons are as deadly as
any first-rate shotgun. The home-made guns are called "latongs" in the Visayan dialect of the Central
Philippines, and “paltik” in the Tagalog dialect of the Manila area. In some of the tougher areas of the
Manila district, residences must be guarded not because housebreakers want money or jewels but
because they will strip the house of gas pipes for the illicit shotgun industry.)
