Chapter 1025 Can’t Write(1/2)

The joint fleet was so shocked that it was dizzy that it failed to break through, but instead it was beaten without the power to fight back.

Colonel Dutland wanted to capture the Ming warship, but Chen Zhixu and Zheng Zhibao fought desperately, defeating less and killing them.

He knew that the Ming Dynasty did not have the tradition of preferential treatment of prisoners, and surrender was a dead end, and he could only break through the enemy to the death. He ordered again:

"Can you survive in a desperate situation at all costs? Let's take a try."

After receiving the order, the two warships in front rushed towards Shi Lang's fleet desperately.

Anyway, they died, and they rushed forward with all speed regardless of the fierce bombardment. Unfortunately, they were all sunk by Shi Lang leading the fleet.

After sinking the two warships in front, the warships behind quickly narrowed the distance from Shi Lang's fleet.

"Boom..."

...

Dayu led the ships to surround them and bombard them fiercely, and two more warships were sunk by Ming warships...

The total number of joint fleet warships and armed merchant ships exceeded 100, and at this time only four warships were still desperately breaking through...

"Fire the cannon and sink the enemy ship!"

Zhu Chenggong and Shi Lang ordered artillery to be fired almost at the same time, and dozens of Ming warships attacked each other forward and backward, and all the artillery positions were around the waterline of the opponent's warships.

The purpose of this is to prevent the damage of the warships of the country. Even if they cannot hit the enemy ships, the shells will be bombarded in the sea...

How could several warships withstand the bombardment of hundreds of naval guns? The waterlines were all sieved, and the warships began to sink...

Western colonial soldiers have always been domineering and were beaten so miserably.

If the Ming Dynasty and the others had accepted surrender, these people would have surrendered long ago.

Seeing that all the warships were sinking, the Netherlands could not take care of anything. Whether the Ming army refused or not, they would surrender.

"Quick, take the white flag..."

Hearing the colonel asked the white flag to surrender, the soldier said helplessly:

"Col. We don't have a white flag!"

Yes, when the joint fleet was formed, the four countries were full of confidence and did not prepare a white flag at all...

The colonel cursed:

"Silly pig, hold up all the white things. Whether the Ming army accepts it or not, at least we have tried our best, go and find it..."

...

While the Netherlands were preparing the white flag, soldiers on the Ming warships fired, and some of the soldiers who had emerged were killed by the Ming army.

A piece of white cloth was shot from several sinking warships, including clothes, sheets, etc. The almost-found white cloth sheets were all raised high by the Spanish and the Netherlands...

"Mingjun Grandpa won people with virtue and must accept our surrender..."

...

Seeing the Netherlands and Spanish soldiers surrender forcibly, Shi Lang smiled and shook his head, and immediately asked Zhu Chenggong for instructions:

"Governor, they seem to surrender forcibly, do you accept it?"

Zhu Chenggong smiled faintly:

"Accepting their surrender, Ceylon and other places need a lot of coolies."

"Here!"

Shi Lang put away the walkie-talkie and said to the messenger:

"Accept their surrender and let them jump into the sea and swim."

"Here!"

Shi Lang's order was passed to the captains, and they immediately shouted to the surrendered Western soldiers, asking these people to jump into the sea and swim, and the Ming army would salvage them...

Just kidding, several Western warships are about to sink, and the Ming warships cannot be leaned over. Those who can swim over will have a great life, and those who can't swim over will definitely drown...^

When the Ming Dynasty accepted the surrender, no one complained about the Western soldiers, and were still a little flattered. They jumped into the sea regardless of everything and swam desperately towards the Ming warship...

The Ming army stood on the deck, pointing at the black muzzle at the surrendered soldiers in the sea and shouted:

"We governor said that if you accept your surrender, you must throw away all weapons and those who disobey will be killed."

In order to escape, Western soldiers all jumped into the sea with empty hands, and there were weapons. He heard this and hurriedly shouted:

"No weapons, all empty-handed, Grandpa Mingjun quickly pull us up..."

Seeing this, Shi Lang nodded slightly and threw ropes into the sea one by one, asking them to climb up by themselves. The Ming army would not pull them at all, but waited to tie them up...

Some powerful Western soldiers climbed onto the deck of the Ming army's warships with all their might and were immediately tied up by the Ming army above...

Zhu Chenggong walked onto the deck of the warship and looked at the several Dutch warships floating on the sea. He originally wanted to take them back to be a merchant ship, but when he saw the extent of the damage to those warships, he gave up.

The Netherlands warships were all Garen ships, and among the sail warships of that era, they were indeed good in all aspects.

But now the hull is covered with big holes and has no value for maintenance, so I can only give up...

After hundreds of prisoners struggled to climb onto the Ming warship, Zhu successfully ordered the order to set sail and triumphantly.

Some Western soldiers who did not climb onto the Ming army warship could only struggle and shout in the sea in despair...

This time, the Ming Dynasty dispatched seventy warships and thirty arson ships modified by merchant ships. The soldiers fought bravely and defeated the joint fleet composed of the four countries.

Killed more than 10,000 Western soldiers, captured more than 600 Western prisoners of war, and killed Garcelo, the commander-in-chief of the United Fleet.

The Ming army lost two warships and thirty merchant ships, and more than a dozen warships were injured, but the Ministry of War was very serious. Eight soldiers were killed in battle and more than one hundred injured, which was absolutely a great victory.

Such a large-scale naval battle, and almost defeated the Joint Fleet, is the first time in Chinese history, and it will definitely be recorded in history.

Under the leadership of Dayu, the Ming fleet returned victoriously with more than 600 prisoners...

When the Ming Invincible Armada returned to the military port, the soldiers found that Emperor Shenwu led the generals to greet them, and felt extremely warm.

After the warships were anchored in the military port, the soldiers, led by Zhu Chenggong, lined up to walk off the warships and saluted neatly in front of Emperor Shenwu:

"See Your Majesty and defeat the United Fleet!"

Emperor Shenwu smiled slightly and raised his hands slightly:

"Thank you for your hard work, no gifts!"

The soldiers shouted in unison:

"Thank you, your Majesty, long live my emperor."

"Okay, very good, today I will celebrate your achievements..."

"Long live my emperor..."

...

On the way back to the Protectorate, Zhu Chenggong reported the battle situation to Emperor Shenwu and also informed Emperor Shenwu of the arrest of hundreds of prisoners.

"Your Majesty, this time the Ming fleet wiped out the joint fleet and captured more than hundreds of prisoners. Please tell me what to do with these prisoners."

"Catch more than a few hundred prisoners?"

"It's good to capture hundreds of prisoners. I'll send them to Ceylon mining to work as a coolie in a few days. By the way, who is the biggest official to capture?"

Zhu Chenggong hurriedly replied:

"Your Majesty, the Spanish flagship USS Figaro was sunk by our army, and their commander was also killed.

The commanders of the Netherlands should be alive, and they should be among the surrendered crowds, and they will be known after interrogation.

Emperor Shenwu nodded slightly when he heard this:

"Oh, are there any other fleets of other countries participating in the war?"

Hearing the emperor's question, Zhu Chenggong bowed and reported:

"Your Majesty, they are all white people, and I cannot judge until the question is questioned."

Zhu Cilang nodded:

"Go back to the Protectorate's House to interrogate first. If there is a commander of the Netherlands, you will bring me a look."

"Abide by the order!"

Returning to the Protectorate, Zhu Chenggong returned to the military camp to interrogate the prisoners:

"Come, bring these prisoners back to the barracks, and I will interrogate them personally."

"Here!"

After arriving at the military camp, the Ming army concentrated the captives of the joint fleet in the open space and waited for the governor to interrogate.

Zhu Chenggong brought Shi Lang and others to the prisoners. His cold eyes swept over the prisoners one by one, making the prisoners feel cold on their backs.

Knowing that his life was in the hands of the Ming army, these usually high-ranking colonists were dejected and obedient at this time.

Zhu Chenggong looked around and found that the prisoners looked similar, but they did not find any difference.

He said in a cold tone:
To be continued...
