Although it had sunk to the bottom of the sea with the battleship, it could not erase the bravery of Lin Chong and the others.

They could have avoided the European Eight-Nation Combined Fleet and went to Singapore Harbor to make peace with the main force of the Ming Fleet, and then they came together to meet the battleship group of the Eight-Nation Combined Fleet.

However, watching the Eight-Nation Combined Fleet brutally bombarding the coastal cities of Daming on both sides of Malacca, and wantonly slaughtering the innocent people of Daming in the city, they really couldn't turn a blind eye, and in order to attract the attention of the Eight-Nation Combined Fleet, they rushed forward to meet the huge warship group of the Eight-Nation Combined Fleet without fear of death.

Even though they knew that they would die if they rushed up, they still had the courage to rush up and fight!

They succeeded in attracting the energy of the Eight-Nation Combined Fleet, allowing the Eight-Nation Combined Fleet to temporarily abandon its bombardment of coastal cities, giving the people in coastal cities more time to flee out of the cities, and reducing the casualties of innocent people.

They have fully fulfilled their duties as soldiers, defending their homes and protecting the country, and protecting the people!

As for the Eight-Nation Combined Fleet, although it had sunk the three Ming warships that rushed forward to send them to death, the entire Combined Fleet could not be happy, and even had heavy hearts.

This is the combat effectiveness shown by the Daming battleship just now, which put pressure on them.

They were still fighting just now, they didn't analyze it in detail, and now that the battle is over and the three Ming battleships have sunk, they have freed up their energy to carefully analyze the specific combat effectiveness of the Ming battleships.

None of the commanders of the countries in the Eight-Nation Combined Fleet are fools, even the Spanish commanders, who have always been arrogant, are not fools; on the contrary, they all have some ability to command naval battles and analyze the situation of the enemy and us, otherwise they would not have been entrusted with the important task of leading the naval fleets of various countries.

Just three warships dared to rush up to meet their huge group of 641 combined warships.

The courage of the Ming naval soldiers is only one of the aspects, and the strong combat effectiveness displayed by the Ming warship is what shocks them the most.

Whether it was the power of the shells at intervals of only ten seconds, or the fact that the cannons of the entire battleship could be fired at once, they could not imagine. No, that's not all, but also the hit rate is also trying to be a horror.

Judging from all this, although the number of cannons of the Daming battleships is not as large as the number of their combined fleet warships, the combat effectiveness of each Daming battleship is at least three or more of their combined fleet warships.

How did Daming do it! This mysterious Eastern Empire must be defeated!

The commanders of the Eight-Nation Combined Fleet are gloomy!

"Da Ming!" Even the Dutch Duke of Havelan, who was the first to hear about the Da Ming Shenwei-class battleship, had a very unsightly face, and it was because he had always been afraid of Da Ming's strength that they had not dared to come to retaliate against Da Ming alone in the past few years.

However, no matter how powerful the Ming warships were, this time their eight-nation combined fleet, with a total of 641 warships, would definitely be able to defeat this mysterious Eastern Empire.

"God must be on our side!" The commander of the Dutch fleet, Duke Havelan, said with a hideous face.

Not only the Duke of Havelan, but also the commanders of the fleets of other countries are also like this, they must defeat the Ming Dynasty and destroy the Ming fleet, otherwise if the Ming fleet also brings such a powerful warship to the world to compete with them for colonies, then it must be a stronger opponent than the Netherlands. The world sea power can only belong to their Obaro, and the Ming Dynasty will continue to be his mysterious eastern empire at most, and he will not want to touch the world sea power!

"The fleet continues to get closer!" Duke Havelan commanded loudly.

The Eight-Nation Combined Fleet then continued its voyage to the east of Malacca.

Huge warship groups spread across half of the Strait of Malacca, mighty and mighty.

Although they were interrupted by Lin Chong and the other three Ming warships just now, they temporarily gave up bombarding the Daming city along the coast of Malacca for a while, and the analysis of the combat effectiveness of the Daming warships just now also frightened the commanders of the fleet.

They need blood to rebuild their morale and restore the invincible momentum of their combined eight-nation fleet.

The warships of the Eight-Nation Combined Fleet continued to fire all the way toward the Daming City that could be obtained along the coast.

In order to achieve maximum lethality, the Eight-Nation Combined Fleet bombed the city all the way with flowering shells.

The shells exploded in the coastal cities of the Ming Dynasty, many innocent people of the Ming Dynasty were killed and injured, and some small cities were directly razed to the ground.

However, just now, Lin Chong and the other three Ming warships attracted the energy of the Eight-Nation Combined Fleet for a short time, and fought for the people of the coastal cities to escape for a period of time, so the Eight-Nation Combined Fleet shelled again, in fact, in addition to destroying the city, it could not cause excessive casualties, and the death of Lin Chong and others was not in vain after all.

Even some Ming garrisons have set up cannons on the coast to return fire on the combined fleet warships on the sea.

"Boom Boom"

Two Combined Fleet battleships were hit by shells from the Ming garrison.

A cannon and five Combined Fleet soldiers were blown over and thrown into the sea.

"Fire!"

The warships of the "Boom Boom" Combined Fleet immediately returned fire, and the dense shells flew towards the coast, instantly destroying the artillery deployed by the Ming garrison on the seaside.

The artillery of the Ming garrison may be more advanced and powerful, but after all, the number is too small to pose a threat to the warship group of the combined fleet, and it is always destroyed as soon as it is exposed.

The eastern estuary of Malacca, the area around the port of Singapore.

One had a spy coming from the western coast on a fast horse or by train.

"Oh no!"

"Two Admirals, the arrival of the European barbarian fleet is bombarding the coastal cities on both sides of Malacca in our Ming Dynasty, causing a large number of casualties among innocent people!" The spies reported the news to Zheng Sen and Shen Jing.

Zheng Sen and Shen Jing were furious when they heard this.

"European barbarians, before the two sides have a naval battle, they first bombarded the coastal cities on both sides of Malacca in our Ming Dynasty, causing a large number of innocent people in our Ming Dynasty to be killed and injured, it is really cruel and unforgivable!"

Although they had already calculated that the European Combined Fleet would arrive in the next few days, they never thought that the first thing the European Combined Fleet would do was to bombard the coastal cities of Malacca and slaughter the innocent people of the Ming Dynasty.

"The herald ordered, all the warships of the East China Sea Fleet and the South China Sea Fleet gathered and immediately went to meet the European barbarian fleet!"

Originally, Shen Jing and Zheng Sen planned to fight a decisive battle with the European Combined Fleet in the vicinity of Singapore Harbor, the narrowest part of the Strait of Malacca, but now that the European Combined Fleet is bombarding the coastal cities of Malacca all the way, it is impossible for them to continue to wait in Singapore Harbor for the European Eight-Nation Combined Fleet to sail here by themselves.

If you want to stop the European Combined Fleet from continuing to bombard the coastal cities on both sides of Malacca all the way and slaughter the innocent people of the Ming Dynasty, you can only take the initiative to meet the battle.

As Shen Jing's order was passed down, the warships of the Ming East China Sea Fleet and the South China Sea Fleet were quickly assembled.

Originally, they were all scattered around the harbor, and in less than an hour, all the warships of the two fleets were assembled, and under the leadership of Shen Jing and Zheng Sen, they left the harbor and headed for the combined fleet of eight European countries sailing to the west.
