The city of Geranza, also known as Anping Castle, was known as the city of Orange in ancient times. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It was first built in 1624 and is the oldest castle in Taiwan. Since the founding of the city, it was once the center of Dutch rule over Taiwan!

In 1622, the Dutch East India Company occupied Penghu as an entrepot for East Asian trade. In 1623, the Dutch built a simple fortress in Yikun, which was the predecessor of Anping Castle.

The location of this city can be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack, like a turtle shell at the same time, and there are very few ways to get in.

Of course, for the defenders, if there is no support, it is equivalent to trapping themselves inside.

Let's see, how did Zheng Chenggong win him back then?

In March 1661 (the eighteenth year of Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty and the fifteenth year of the Yongli of the Southern Ming Dynasty), Zheng Chenggong personally led 25,000 soldiers and generals to set off from Kinmen on 100 warships. They braved the wind and waves, crossed the Taiwan Strait, and rested in Penghu for a few days to prepare to take Taiwan directly.

When the Dutch invading army heard that Zheng Chenggong was going to attack Taiwan, they were very frightened. They concentrated their troops in two castles, Taiwan (present-day Dongping, Taiwan) and Chichichi (present-day Tainan), and sank ships in ports to prevent Zheng Chenggong's fleet from landing.

Zheng Jun took advantage of the high tide of the sea to sail the fleet into the Luermen Inland Sea, and the main force landed from Heliao Port and attacked Chichicheng from the flank.

At the same time, it routed the reinforcements from Taiwan City.

However, that is the end of it. Don't mention anything, go straight to the city. That's a fairy tale, okay?

In fact, after the success of the small operation, Zheng Chenggong could only build earthen platforms around the city and besiege the enemy army for 8 months. The Dutch army surrendered to the Zheng army when the water source was cut off and foreign aid was hopeless.

Alas, my numbness, tens of thousands of people attacked thousands or so, and the sneak attack still got off to a good start.

In the end, he could only stare dryly, stay on the edge of the city, wait for the people inside to eat the food and drink the water, and desperately know that there is no foreign aid. also received Zheng Chenggong's assurance, saying that he would not kill the prisoners.

Well, that's the surrender.

On February 1, 1662 (December 13, the 15th year of the Yongli calendar), he signed the surrender agreement.

The treaty focuses on:

Both sides cease all hostilities and forget their hatred. (What a strange reason!) ）

The Dutch side handed over the castle, artillery, military supplies, merchandise and cash to the national surname. The Dutch were allowed to bring with them all the food, tools, belongings and other items necessary to return to Batavia. (Is this really defeated?) Can you still take your property and leave? ）

Dutch soldiers were able to raise their flags, fire cannons, load guns, beat drums, and march into formation. The lord of the country should release all the Dutch prisoners! (Holy!) ）

I'm numb to you, don't say it's Zheng Chenggong, just change a general from the Ming Dynasty to come over, as long as the situation in your hands is the same as his, you can beat it down. Good no good?

Therefore, Zhu Zilong's request to Zheng Chenggong's father was to take it within a few days.

This is considered to be a clear credit for giving credit, but is it actually a trap?

As far as the Zheng family's ability is concerned, it has only been a few years since the pirates turned regular, and they usually collect protection fees. Let them take Resharan in a few days, and you think they are the New Chinese People's Liberation Army?

In the original unchanged history, later, when the Qing Dynasty attacked Taiwan, it was not only the Qing army, but also the Dutch who came to help in order to take revenge.

This was because the Dutch East India Company lost its stronghold in Daejin, and the trade route between "Southeast Asia-Okan (re-export to China)-Nagasaki (Japan)" was interrupted, and the volume of trade with China also decreased sharply, resulting in heavy losses.

Decades later, the Dutch East India Company attempted to restore the route several times, and thus joined forces with the Qing court to attack the Zheng clan.

To put it bluntly, between countries, only interests are paramount!

Of course, Zhu Zilong is not denying the historical significance of Zheng Chenggong's recovery of Taiwan, but saying that his purpose is not what people think.

Moreover, if you change someone, it can be said that anyone can recover success, and it doesn't have to be him.

Soon, Zheng Zhilong, who received Zhu Zilong's military order, chose a method similar to Zheng Chenggong's siege after discussion, and history is always so strikingly similar.

His plan is also simple, whether he makes meritorious service or not, it doesn't matter anymore. Just don't lose too much!

Surrounded here, the meaning is good, anyway, Grandpa Guo didn't say that there was no punishment if he couldn't beat it. When the time comes, make some small shrimp, and then stay here, and wait until the army comes, just dip some light yourself.

Don't say it, in the past few days, he has really knocked out a lot of small Dutch reconnaissance ships at sea.

It's the same today, and I found one as soon as I came.

Dozens of boats hit one, and the Zheng family was full of energy. Like bloodthirsty warriors, the cannonballs burst out of the chambers and pierced the sky, blasting past one after another.

The Dutch tried to hasten the escape, but it was useless, there were simply too many enemies.

Even if there is a little gap on the sea, after all, the Zheng family has hugged Zhu Zilong's thighs tightly in the past few years. Therefore, the old ships and weapons that Zhu Zilong replaced were not updated to the Zheng family.

Eliminated ships of the Shandong Navy, seriously. Even second-hand goods, third-hand goods, are much stronger than the Dutch sails in the nineteenth century.

The efficiency is far more than that of the Dutch mast ships of the XVII century, n more!

These Dutch for a time, the discovery of cups. If you can't beat the Ming Navy, you can forget it, and you will be in front of the pirates. He suddenly found himself a powerless sheep and could only be killed by hunters.

Well, if you can't run, then fight. The Dutchman, too, was furious, turned the bow of the ship in a circle, and tried to rush over to take the broadside.

The seventeenth century was the golden age of the Dutch. They are the kings of the sea!

How can you become a sheep here in Daming?

The bandit-style business model has been successful all over the world, and it was also successful on the side of Daming at the beginning, why is it like this now?

Hehe, because science and technology are the primary productive forces.

If you are backward, you will be beaten, their scientific support, their military, and everything they have, in Zhu Zilong's eyes, is there still such a thing as science and technology?

If you want to inquire about the news, break through or something, you can only think about it a lot. Let's go home and hold on, hopefully until reinforcements arrive!

As a result of the battle, there will naturally be no surprises.

After all, tigers are also afraid of wolves. What's more, now the Dutch in Taiwan is just a paper tiger without teeth. Even Zheng Zhilong's pirate army can't fight!

This made Zheng Zhilong laugh on the mast. Look at the weakened enemy and signal the shelling to continue below!

"Accelerate, go all out, shoot! Sink them and you'll be rewarded! ”

In the blink of an eye, there was no suspense about the outcome of the victory.

Even the ship that the Dutch came to meet was hit, and the inside of Qiqi began to leak. They rushed to the bilge like crazy, and tried to draw the water out of the cabin with barrel basins.

However, there is nothing that this egg has.

Manpower is so small in the face of this kind of thing.

Eventually, the sailors of the two pioneer Galen ships, the Dutch, jumped out of the unpredictable sea and prayed that God would give them the last mercy.
