Chapter 648: A Tough Battle (Page 1/1)
The two people in the quarrel stopped talking at the same time, and they looked at the middle-aged bearded man who was talking. Just now, their family members regarded this person as each other's subordinates, and they didn't pay attention to this person at all.
It wasn't until the man opened his mouth that he could see the man's face, and his thick and curly beard almost covered the man's face. The two looked at it for a long time and didn't recognize each other, and finally Rejouz spoke: "Who are you?" Who qualifies for this operation? ”
The bearded man didn't have a trace of panic and fear when he heard this, and looked at the two of them for a long time before saying, "Whisper! Let me introduce myself, my name is Weddell and I am a member of the Royal Navy of England. What everybody! Can't we England attend this meeting? ”
When they heard the bearded man report to his home, Flores and Rejoz almost turned around and ran. Flores shouted even louder: "Guards! Guardsman! ”
Hearing Flores' shout, the bearded Weddell pulled out the short hammer from his waist and slammed it on the table. Flores, who was shouting at the guards, stopped abruptly.
Outside the door, the dried silk soldiers pushed the door and rushed in, their arquebuses in their hands, staring blankly at the people in the room.
"Flores! You're too nervous, relax! Just relax! Hurry up and get the guards out! Don't let them ruin this meeting! Doug's voice sounded at the right time, dissolving the tension.
Flores let out a sigh of relief, looked at Doug and said, "You found Mr. Weddell?" Seeing Doug nod, he waved his hand to let the guards out.
It's no wonder that Flores and Rayoz are nervous, it's just that the name Weddell has a really bad reputation among the people of Dry Lace and the Netherlands.
Weddell was a pirate, and a royal pirate of England. With a smuggling permit issued by the Crown of England, if caught, he can also claim to be acting on orders and enjoying prisoner of war treatment.
He led his fleet between the New World and Europe, and was active in the Caribbean to raid passing merchant ships. Occasionally, when he was happy, he would rob a lone Dutch merchant ship, so the two of them had the impression that Weddell was a pirate.
They didn't expect Doug to pull Weddell in, could it be that the English also had the idea of getting involved in the East? As soon as they thought of this, Flores and Rejoz were not good, for fear that the coast of Daming would become another Caribbean Sea.
If the robbers of the Ming people did not dare to go to sea, then everyone's interests would no longer exist. With the exception of Dao Outside, the other two looked at Weddell with hostile eyes.
Weddell didn't care at all, and said lightly: "I have come to the far east to trade on the orders of His Majesty the King, but this ancient empire does not seem to be friendly. I met Dear Doug in Macau, and that's why I'm in Manila! ”
Flores had a disdainful look on her face, she wouldn't send a pirate if she wanted to trade. It must have been the English who saw others pulling back the goods of the Ming Dynasty in ships, and the pink eye was committed again, and they planned to plunder the East.
In fact, Weddell did intend to come to Daming to trade, but his plan was to use his six warships to knock on Daming's coastal defenses and force Daming to submit.
Let England be the sole distributor of Ming goods in Europe, and the benefits for England will be incomparably great. But as soon as he arrived at the coast of Daming, he was shocked by the news that the Europeans had been repeatedly deflated in Daming.
Although Weddell looked down on the Ganlace and the Dutch, he was also aware of the strength of these two countries in the East. Even he couldn't have taken out so many warships, and Weddell, who was surprised, immediately arrived in Macau.
Doug was very happy to see Weddell, and Franco's strength was weak, and cooperating with those two countries was tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger. Even if it succeeds, it will kick the Franc machine away, and Weddell's arrival is like a timely rain.
The two sides soon formed an alliance and joined forces against Gan Lace and the Netherlands. The two of them don't have to worry about being kicked out of the East, which is why Weddell is in Manila.
Weddell's variable made both the Dutch and the Dry Lace wary, and if they faced each other head-on, the two countries were not afraid of the English at all.
However, the English built their warships long and low, which was not conducive to stability at sea, but was very fast and flexible.
Weddell is an expert in this area, and has defeated the warships of the Dry Wax on many occasions with fewer victories. As soon as he thought of the English battleship, Flores's eyes widened, and he pointed at Weddell and said, "The battleship of the Changxing Army will not be built with the help of you English!" ”
An hour later, Weddell had to admit that the warships of the Changxing Army were very similar in appearance to the English ships. He rubbed the beard on his chin for a moment before he said, "The warships of the Changxing Army are only somewhat similar in appearance to the English warships.
You can see that their sails are still about the same shape as yours, and I think it's a coincidence. If they meet the Changxing warships in a naval battle, the English warships will definitely win easily! ”
The meeting lasted from morning to late night, and in the end, both Ganlasi and the Netherlands did not trust each other, and decided to take their own actions to flank the Changxing army on Taiyuan Island.
The Dutch set out from the southern part of Taiyuan Island and attacked Chicken Coop Harbor by land through the central kingdom of Potbelly. The Dry Wax People also landed near Chicken Coop Harbor and directly attacked Chicken Coop Harbor.
All the warships in Europe, a total of ninety-seven, were formed into a combined fleet, under the command of Weddell, to attack the port of chicken coop. This operation was almost the strongest navy in Europe against the Changxing Army, and if it won easily, it would directly attack the Ming Jingshi and force the Ming to surrender and occupy this ancient empire.
After the discussion, the high-spirited European coalition forces immediately moved and marched towards the city of Reshalan in the south of Taiyuan Island. It will be the starting point of their conquest of the entire East, where they will crush the resistance of the Ming Dynasty and smash the backbone of this Eastern Empire.
At the end of December, at the head of Manila, Sandy looked at the fleet. An ominous feeling arose in his heart, and he tried his best to persuade a few people.
But his opinion was ignored, and Sandy feared that if the fleet failed, there would be no more Europeans in the East.
Every move in Manila City was under the supervision of the Changxing Army, and intelligence was sent out when the European fleet arrived. Zhang Dou was already sitting in Xintai City on Sheliao Island, looking at the information sent.
A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, come the fleet of the Europeans! The Changxing Army has prepared a big gift for you, and I hope that the Europeans will enjoy it happily at that time.
After more than a year of all-out expansion, the Changxing Army's navy is finally going to have a head-to-head battle with the Europeans!
