The Spanish naval commander Sidoni did not feel any anger or anger at such a scene, but held the binoculars tightly and looked at the two navies in battle, without saying a word.

There is a reason why this is so.

Although it seems that the Spanish navy on the sea has been passively beaten, the English cannon has a long range, and its power is much worse than that of the cannons of the Western army.

Therefore, even if it suffered a lot of shelling, it was only a few unlucky ships that were hit, and there was not much loss for the huge Spanish navy.

Moreover, with the passage of time, under the control of skilled sailors, the Spanish Navy has gradually mastered the situation, and the sea has begun to develop in favor of the Western Army.

Although the situation is gradually becoming clearer, there is still chaos in this part of the sea.

Ironically, as the Spanish Navy's largest naval fleet in the history of the world, it fought against the Anglo-Portuguese Navy, which ranked second.

It was the largest battle at sea in the history of the world, and it was the first time that everyone in the battle had encountered such a situation, so most of the people were still in a state of confusion.

The huge fleet does not have the effective means of communication that later generations have, so what is displayed in front of the eyes of the world does not have the feeling of artillery flying together and shocking people's hearts.

On the contrary, all kinds of ships moved faster or slower on the sea, and there was no other way to distinguish them except the flags on the ships.

"Boom—" Spain insisted on the large size of the ship, so basically in addition to artillery, ramming with ramming angles has become a necessary means.

Charles, who was playing the "San Lorenzo", suddenly felt the hull of the ship vibrate, and then a loud noise came from his ears.

"What's going on?" His face changed and he asked hurriedly.

"A Spanish boat hit us!" The sailor, who was watching from the side, immediately shouted loudly, and then waved his hand to indicate that there was nothing to do.

In this regard, Charles nodded, and his attention turned away from the "San Lorenzo", only to find that there were already many Spanish ships around him, with the "San Lorenzo" as the center, showing a trend of encirclement.

"Damn, to the left, rush out—" Charles then reacted, he was almost surrounded, but fortunately he woke up in time.

Glaring fiercely at the unharmed "San Lorenzo", Charles commanded.

The Spaniards really live up to their reputation.

I really felt the strong naval strength of Spain, and Charles, who was able to break through, was heartbroken.

Looking back at the Spanish Navy, which was gradually reversing, Charles was extremely worried about his own situation.

In this case, the Anglo-Portuguese alliance was lost.

Not only him, but also Lord of the Admiralty, James, who had been staring intently at the sea.

Although in some parts, the Anglo-Portuguese navy still had some achievements, but the powerful Spanish navy had already mastered the situation.

James understood the Spanish strategy, and they gradually closed the circle, wanting to shorten the distance between the two ships, and then use the advantage of numbers and ships to carry out a boarding battle, swallowing the Anglo-Portuguese alliance in one fell swoop.

Therefore, on the sea, the Anglo-Portuguese coalition forces seemed to be dotted, scattered like stars, and the Spanish ships, which were as big as stars, put on the appearance of approaching the British ships, but moved the distance openly, making it a huge circle, encircling the main warships of the Anglo-Portuguese coalition, and the gap was getting smaller and smaller.

Charles immediately reminded James of the observation, and the Admiralty Secretary finally reacted and sensed the conspiracy, and immediately demanded that all the warships retreat in an orderly manner to end the big fight.

The many ships in the bureau were very surprised why their side retreated, isn't this in an advantageous position? Why retreat?

But this is the benefit of the newly created all-professional navy, which is full of execution, even if it is a wrong order, it is still carried out correctly.

And if the merchant ships of other countries participated in the war, it would not be easy to evacuate.

Fortunately, most of the British troops were small boats, so they made a U-turn and were fast, less than ten points, and escaped from the circle that was about to close.

And when the Portuguese saw that the British troops had withdrawn, they naturally followed suit.

However, five or six ships were still trapped in the circle and were bombarded until they sank.

Even if they had already surrendered with a white flag, and the Spaniards refused, firing fiercely with artillery.

Seeing the Anglo-Portuguese coalition disappearing like quicksand, Sidoni had a look of hatred on his face Then, he threw off this mood again, after all, today is a small victory, and the facts still prove that the Spanish Navy is invincible.

As for the uneasiness in one's own heart, it is purely superfluous.

In this way, the first battle between the Anglo-Portuguese and Spanish armies ended in a hurry.

The Western Army returned to the occupied port of Calais and began to repair.

The Anglo-Portuguese coalition forces, which suffered a small setback, had a heavy atmosphere.

I never thought that even with speed and range, I still couldn't help the Spaniards, which simply frustrated everyone.

This naval battle, which decided the fate of the United Kingdom, entrusted the hope of the king and the whole center, and there was no room for error, and such a huge responsibility, the disadvantage of the division in the morning, made the whole staff fall into silence.

"Just now, I seem to have seen a wind blowing in the waters of Calais!"

While everyone was meditating, Drake, who had always been impatient, said softly.

"Yes, it seems to have turned from southwest to westerly!" John, Hawkins replied impatiently to his cousin, blaming him with his eyes to stop his wanton behavior. Then I started thinking about it again.

"Then the waves will get bigger and bigger!" Drake didn't seem to notice the impatience and disgust in everyone's eyes, and still said to himself.

Fortunately, everyone was not stupid, especially Lord James, Lord of the Admiralty, who was very shrewd.

"How so? My Mr. Jazz, do you have any good way? ”

James suddenly looked up at Drake, the navigator who had discovered a new course, and asked softly.

"It's just a little bit of an inconsequential trick that makes you smile!"

Drake then revealed his idea with great interest, and the audience applauded.

In the dark, this method is no less than the last straw, even if there is little hope, but it is worth trying.

"Tonight, I hope you can successfully complete your goal, and I will report your credit to His Majesty the King!"

In the dark night, the waves continued to rise and fall, even if he wore a lot, James still felt a trace of cold, but it couldn't drive away the fire in his heart.

"Of course, Your Excellency, this is what I should do!" Drake replied respectfully.
