Chapter 1057 Emperor Chongzhen's Edict of Concession (2)(2/2)

"OK!"

Zhang Zhun stood up excitedly.

Mao Huihui did not come by himself. He also brought a large number of new warships. Sure enough, when Zhang Zhun walked near the port, he found that there were already a large number of warships lined up in the distance of the port. Since there were many ships near the port, the warships did not have the chance to dock. However, the heroic posture of these warships could be clearly seen from the Qianli Mile Mile.

This is the fifth batch of Dragon God Ship launched, with a total of fifty ships. They were launched at the second shipyard in Dengzhou at the beginning of the month. After a simple sea trial, these Dragon God Ship was incorporated into the navy and officially entered service. With the addition of these fifty Dragon God Ship, all the losses in fighting against the main fleet of the Dutch Navy were compensated.

The four fleets of the Hu Ben Navy, each of which has more than thirty Dragon God Ships, are more than thirty. This is a pretty good number. Even facing the main fleet of the Dutch Navy, the Hu Ben Navy can take the initiative to launch an attack. With four powerful fleets, the control of the Hu Ben Navy in the South China Sea will continue to expand.

According to Zhang Zhun's arrangement, the first is to take the coast of Fujian as the base, the second fleet takes the coast of Taiwan as the base, the third is to take the coast of Guangdong as the base, and the fourth fleet takes Hainan as the base, preparing to attack the Nanyang. The goal of the first phase is very simple, to plunder the Dutch routes, grab the Dutch merchant ships, and force the Dutch to terminate the route. The goal of the second phase is to erode the Dutch ports one by one. First, it starts from Giarding in Vietnam, then Brunei, and then Balinbang.

If the Dutch could not bear it, he sent another naval main fleet to provoke, and the Tiger and Ben Navy rushed forward and wiped out another Dutch naval main fleet. After destroying this fleet, the Dutch would be like a toothless tiger and had to wait to die.

During this period, news about the Dutch people continued to come. Due to the strong strength of the Hu Ben Navy and the changes in the domestic situation, the Dutch East India Company had to agree to redeem all the captured Dutch people at a price of 80 taels of silver for each person. The total price of this ransom was about 200,000 taels.

As the Dutch's strength was weakened, the situation in Southeast Asia changed a lot. Originally, the Dutch also launched continuous attacks on Malacca, trying to snatch Malacca from the Portuguese. However, due to the defeat, the Dutch had to stop fighting. In other words, the Portuguese saved Malacca and the Strait of Malacca.

The Spanish were also greatly relieved. No one came to covet their Black Tide route. Even the French and Italians felt much more relaxed. They were able to get along well between the three powerful countries and their lives were much better than before.

Only a very few people realized that all the Western powers in the South China Sea actually lived on the crater. It may not be a good thing for them to be destroyed. Because the Hu Ben Navy is about to erupt.
