Du Ge was in a hurry, although he was already at the fastest speed, his main fleet was still half an hour behind the enemy.

The kind of new warship of the Chinese Naval Division, which he looked like it was running fast, was flying on the sea, quickly approaching the Spanish fleet that was fighting with another Chinese naval fleet.

With five nautical miles still in his fleet, nearly 10 kilometers away, the main fleet of the Spanish fleet was inextricably linked to the Chinese fleet.

The losses on both sides were not small, more than 50 warships were now only more than 20 warships, and the opponent, he saw that it was the flag of the commander-in-chief of the Third Fleet, Perran, their fleet also lost more than 20 warships, and more than a dozen were damaged, but the Spanish fleet was at a disadvantage after all.

On the other hand, nearly twenty of the Spaniards' fleeing ships were defeated and surrendered by another small enemy fleet, which then joined the siege of the Spanish fleet with 600-ton ships and some 300-ton ships, and some joined the siege of the British.

By this time, the British had already lost five ships, seriously damaged five, and five surrendered.

The remaining fifteen were clearly preparing to escape, but they did not want to be stopped by the twenty or so ships of three hundred tons and one hundred and eighty tons of the small fleet.

So after sinking five enemy ships, he was seriously injured three and sank one, but the dozen or so small warships that rushed up behind the enemy were just equivalent to the patrol ships of the Huaxia Army's naval division, but they quickly swept past the remaining British fleet warships, causing irreversible damage to the British fleet.

Three of the only British ships fled towards them, but were unfortunately overtaken by five other enemy ships and had to surrender.

When his seventy ships and ships arrived, the enemy left the place with the British ships, and then twelve of those small ships rushed towards the seventy ships of his own fleet.

After his own fleet saw the Spanish fleet surrender more than a dozen battleships one after another, Drake's battleships staggered away from the battlefield and fled in the direction of Manila.

"Quick, quick, speed up." Du Ge urged his fleet commander.

But the fleet commander told them that it would take them another fifteen minutes to reach the battlefield, but now it seemed useless.

Because the Spanish fleet they were going to rescue ran away.

And Perran's fleet adjusted after striking at the Spanish fleet, turned to them and rushed over, the enemy only had about fifty warships and warships, which was the remaining ships of the fleet after Zhang Liwei's fleet.

After most of the warships arranged by Zhang Liwei to intercept the British returned, Zhang Liwei took the remaining twenty or so warships to merge into Perlan's fleet, and a dozen or so warships went to replace the five warships and twelve clippers sent by Zhang Qiang to guard the captured ships and protect the wounded ships.

In this battle with the Spaniards, nearly 60 Spanish warships and warships were captured, more than 30 of their own ships were wounded, and nearly 100 ships were protected by more than a dozen ships, nearly 30 nautical miles away from the battlefield.

After the fleet led by Zhang Qiang and Kodak helped Perrin defeat the Spanish fleet, they turned to Zheng Zhi's fleet.

By this time, Zheng Zhi's fleet had lost 90 warships and armed merchant ships, and more than 30 seriously wounded ships withdrew from the battle and staggered towards Palawan.

More and more ships left the fleet one after another, and his opponent, Xie Lan, with more than seventy ships sunk and damaged, left the fleet and headed for the base of the Fifth Fleet.

The Great Prince's fleet, which had previously been bitten by Zhang Qiang's Huaxia fleet and lost more than a dozen ships, was later beaten once by the warship detachment under the command of Zhang Liwei, and at this time helped Zheng Zhi's fleet besiege Xie Lan's fleet.

The fleets of the three sides had moved thirty-five nautical miles away from the original battlefield to fight in the waters between Palawan and Annam.

The Spanish fleet was forced to flee and liberated the Perrin fleet, the Huaxia fleet, twelve clippers entangled the British fleet, and Perrin led the remaining fleet to entangle the seventy warships sent by Du Ge to rescue the Spanish fleet.

Zhang Qiang's warship pounced on Zheng Zhi's fleet, and the first to fight was the fleet of the Great Prince, who had less than fifty warships left on this side.

The Great Prince's fleet saw Zhang Qiang's fleet finish the enemy rushing towards him, and the lesson of last night was still profound, and almost in less than ten minutes, the Great Prince's fleet hurriedly abandoned its opponents, broke away from the battle, and ran towards the bay of Palawan.

But after a long journey, and two fierce battles, both the sailors and the ships were exhausted, and the ships were old, either twenty-one or seventeen or eighteen, and even the new ships of seven or eight years old that had captured the Fifth Fleet were still faltering, and moved with difficulty at a speed of less than three knots and less than four knots, driven by scarred sails.

Even after fighting for so long, the wounded sails of the Huaxia were quickly replaced, and although the weight of the iron plate on one side of the hull prevented them from exerting maximum speed, they were still able to pursue the enemy at a speed of eight, nine, or even ten knots, and not to forget that when these ships were first designed, their speed was designed at fifteen knots.

In the end, a lot of iron skeletons were added, and the iron sheet wrapped the hull, so that the original design weight of the ship soared from 600 tons to more than 800 tons, and then under some weight reduction modifications, it finally reached a weight of 780 tons, so that they could finally move forward at the fastest speed of thirteen to fourteen knots, even if the weight was affected, they could still move at a speed of twelve knots, ordinary cruising reached the speed of eight knots, and the fastest cruise reached the speed of ten knots, and now even if the ordinary speed of eight knots is used in combat, it is still twice the speed of the enemy. Or still slightly faster than the Spanish fleet's maximum speed.

In less than two hours, the fleet caught up with the fleet of the Great Prince, who had fled in a hurry.

The fierce bow bombardment made the eldest prince's fleet chaotic in the flight of the hasty, colliding with each other, and sinking three of them, and then as the pursuit of the distance was extended, half an hour later, thirteen warships had already surrendered, but the Huaxia had no time to estimate the capture of them, let them lower their sails, and then stopped in place, leaving only one to monitor them, and after leaving two ships to monitor about twenty surrendered ships, the Huaxia fleet finally caught up with the eldest prince and them.

The salvo of nearly five hundred flowering shells made rivers of blood flow on the deck of the fleet, which did not want to surrender, the sails were ignited, and there were heavy casualties, and the ships without many sailors could only drift at sea.

When the fifteen Huaxia ships completely surrounded the Great Prince's fleet, the Great Prince resolutely ordered the last five warships loyal to him to launch a decisive counterattack, hoping to die with the enemy through ramming.

But fifteen battleships outside the encirclement crossed the hull and bloodied the decks of five battleships with dense artillery, and then the solid shells fired from the 32-pounder guns on the lower deck of the battleship Huaxia completely ended their way of charging.

In the telescope, Zhang Qiang saw the prince of Lu wearing a bright yellow robe similar to that of the prince of the Ming Dynasty on the ship rushing ahead, and the king of Lu was blown to pieces by a flowering bomb.
