The boat was maneuverable, the cannon was not easy to hit, the Dutch immediately stood on the side of the ship with a musket, shot down at the approaching boat, several Ming soldiers who drove the boat, were hit by the musket one after another, and the body was planted into the sea, and a scarlet flower bloomed on the sea, but the wave hit and there was no trace immediately.

On the deck of the Dutch gunboat, a panicked sound came, the Dutch ran around on the side of the ship, although they kept dropping their guns, but there were too many Ming boats, they couldn't cope with it at all, just repelled a few, and the other side of the boat had already hit the gunboat.

There were many types of fireships in the Ming army, but there was only one purpose, that is, to burn the enemy ships.

One such is a chain ship, with a sharp iron nail in the bow, which is inserted into the enemy ship by impact, causing the bow to bite the enemy ship, and then setting the bow on fire, and the soldier releases the iron ring and leaves with the stern.

At this time, several Ming serial ships were nailed into a Dutch gunboat at the same time, and the sergeants threw the torch on the bow of the ship full of firewood and oil, and then jumped on the stern of the ship, and immediately broke away, and the Dutch warship was instantly enveloped in flames.

The Dutch used to fight naval battles, mostly artillery fire, and then ramming, and finally the end of the broadside battle, like this nearly 100 fireboats swarmed up, punching and killing the master of the war, it is really rare, the most recent one can be traced back to the battle of Liuluo Bay more than ten years ago, Zheng Zhilong also used this trick to defeat them, but after many years, they healed their scars and forgot the pain, and gradually forgot about the matter.

The attack of the fireships distracted the energy of the Dutch gunboats, and the pressure on the Ming gunboats was suddenly relaxed, and the first to win on the battlefield was not the gunboats and fireships, but the Ming ships that engaged the Dutch boats.

The Ming navy relied on sophisticated equipment, changeable tactics, and nearly five times more warships than the enemy to completely suppress the Dutch miscellaneous fleet led by Kuiyi, and the first to flee was not the warships of the small states of the South Seas, nor the pirate ships, but the Dutch under the command of Yuyi.

This may be the cultural difference between the East and the West, the Chinese cultural circle pays attention to killing and benevolence, while Westerners basically do not make senseless sacrifices, they can't slip away, or surrender, as long as they do their best, it is not shameful to be captured, just like the Dutch left Liu Xiang to run first during the Battle of Liuluo Bay, this time the Dutch took the lead in retreating again when the Ming army was besieged and the defeat was decided.

As soon as the Dutch retreated, the warships of the small South Seas and pirates also wanted to run, but they were entangled by the superior Ming army and were quickly annihilated and surrendered.

Although the Dutch gunboats were large and the guns were advanced, under the siege of the fireships, the remaining nine had already been set on fire, and the heavily damaged Graveran began to turn and flee.

The commander Kao Wu still wanted to insist, but at this time the Ming naval division that blocked the fleet was annihilated, and nearly 400 warships pressed up, and the soldiers threw rockets and raised guns to shoot, and began to besiege the Dutch warships.

Although the Ming army Fu ship was one size smaller than the Dutch gunboat, several of them together could still deal with a Dutch gunboat.

At this time, Kaauu saw that this Dutch gunboat was resisted by Chinese warships from all sides, and the Chinese threw out flying hooks and frantically climbed towards the ship, and the Dutch were constantly disembarked, stumbling a little, taking a few steps back, and being held up by their subordinates.

"Your Excellency, what now?"

Kaou's face was full of pain, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Retreat, go back to Batavia!"

The Dutch land and naval battles were all lost, and Batavia had no reinforcements to send, and when the company mobilized reinforcements from other places, I don't know if it would have to wait until the monkey-faced Ma Yue, the Dutch commander who provoked the incident, saw it very clearly.

As soon as the order was issued, the Dutch ships that were still fighting on the battlefield turned and fled, and the Ming army naturally pursued closely and chased them straight to the bottom of the Fort of Geranza, where the Dutch ships sailed out of the South Passage and the fort batteries bombarded before they stopped the pursuit.

After a naval battle, the Ming army sank two gunboats, and although Kaauu ordered to evacuate, the only ships that could be evacuated were the Egret, which was closer to him, and the Grafflan, which was the first to escape.

A scene on the sea fell in the eyes of the defenders of Fort Geranza and Chikan, Governor Ferleg watched Kau flee to Batavia, and his heart was simply broken, he had hoped that Batavia's reinforcements would hold Taiwan, but now that they came, Taiwan was lost faster.

At this time, the Dutch were left with only two isolated fortresses of Chikan and Geranza, which were completely cut off from each other, and the Dutch forces could no longer hold on, and the victory of the Ming army was certain.

Seeing this, Zheng Chenggong knew that there was no need to pay any more casualties, so he ordered the sailors to clean up the battlefield and rescue the people who fell into the water, and on the other hand, he ordered the infantry to besiege Chikan City and urge the defenders to surrender.

There are only 300 people left in Chikan City, and Western Christianity believes that life is given by God, and it is anti-abortion and anti-suicide, which may be one of the reasons why Westerners surrender more, and pointless resistance is equivalent to suicide, although the Netherlands is a Protestant country, but the officers of Chikan saw that the Dutch naval and land battles were defeated, the Chikan defenders were weak, there were no reinforcements, and the water source was cut off, so they had to take the initiative to send people out to surrender.

At night, in the camp of the Ming army, Zheng Chenggong's tent was brightly lit, and many generals and colonels gathered together to summarize the naval battles during the day, count the losses, report the gains, and after everything was dealt with, Zheng Chenggong waved his hand to let the generals retreat and negotiate with Chen Zilong alone.

Although Zheng Chenggong was the chief general of the attack on the appointment issued by the imperial court, Chen Zilong was the governor of Liangguang and a cadre of the Chu party, so he did not dare to support the general, and as soon as the generals left, he got up from the handsome seat and sat opposite Chen Zilong to show the intention of negotiation.

The soldiers came in, prepared a cup of tea for the two, and then withdrew, Zheng Gongcheng immediately said: "Chen Gong, the Dutch general of Chikan Fort has sent someone out, saying that as long as Da Ming guarantees their safety and their own finances, they are willing to surrender, and then Geranza Fort must also be able to surrender." I don't know what Chen Gong thinks should be done with these Dutch? ”

The remnants of the Dutch were trapped in the fort, which was already a turtle in the urn, and the Ming army did not need to attack, and after a long time, they had to starve to death if they were hungry, so there was no need to consider the matter of seizing the fort, but it was time to talk about how the Ming Dynasty and the Netherlands should deal with each other after the Great War.

Listening to Zheng Chenggong's words, Chen Zilong groaned slightly, "His Royal Highness the King of Chu didn't give me a clear will in this matter, but the Dutch ruined my trade routes and plundered my merchant ships, and they must be severely punished!" ”

"Chen Gong!" Zheng Chenggong shook his head, "I thought that if the Ming Dynasty wanted to expand the interests of Nanyang, it would still value peace with the Dutch and take the opportunity to reach a trade agreement." ”

"Harmony is precious?"

The biggest obstacle of the Ming Dynasty in Nanyang is the Dutch, how to get along, Chen Zilong frowned slightly.
