"There are three Lanfang warships that have turned around, and it seems that they are trying to fight for their lives. Soldiers, bring out your spirit and clean up these guys for me. One of the captains saw that they were squeezing into the mouth of the valley between Namaya and Borneo, but the river was too narrow to pass through so many ships at once, and some of the Chinese soldiers had begun to jump into the sea in panic, intending to escape to the shores with their water surnames. Still, there were brave men among them, who were charging back at the wheel of their pitiful ships.

Although the Dutch Navy admired the courage of the other side, such a move by the other side was just a desperate and stupid counterattack in the face of absolute strength. Soon, the two Dutch two-masted battleships swung sideways, revealing their hideous side gun windows, and the muzzles of the guns of one door peeked out of the gun windows to reveal their dark figures.

"The gunners are ready, aim, ready to shoot!" With the shouting and reprimand of the artillery commander, the captain who stood on the stern tower and stood up and looked at the Chinese warship had a sense of superiority.

Although his two-masted battleship was a small and medium-sized warship in the Dutch naval sequence, it was far superior to the so-called warships of the opposing opponent in all respects.

Although this two-masted battleship did not have a three-deck gun emplacement like battleships or other three-masted battleships, the number of broadside guns was still no less than fifteen, and this kind of fire could easily destroy the opponent.

"The first shot of this battle will be started by my orders, and it may go down in history as the beginning of our Dutch conquest of Borneo." The captain thought with some pride that at this time, the opponent's warship had already entered the range of his own artillery fire.

"Fire!" With a loud shout, fifteen artillery pieces fired one after another, and the tongue of fire still looked so clear under the bright sun. Although the opponent had just entered the range of artillery, there were still two shells that hit the opponent's warship, and I don't know if the opponent's courage had been exhausted on the way back to charge, and at the moment when the artillery hit the warship, the sailors on the Chinese warship scrambled to jump into the sea.

"Captain, do we need another round of artillery fire?" Seeing those Lanfang warships that were only moving slowly with their usual surnames, the first mate standing beside the captain pursed his lips contemptuously and asked knowingly.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

"No, they really don't deserve our waste of shells, damn it, I shouldn't have let the battleship stop here and entangle with them, turn the rudder, and move on, don't care about these cowardly cowards." The captain angrily slapped the ship's side mast and gave a new order in a loud voice.

"I said, we're back on the boat now and we're still in the sea." A Liang pirate who was floating freely on the surface of the sea lazily asked his companions around him, they were one of the "cowards" who jumped off the warship and fled for their lives at the moment when the other party opened fire just now.

"Whatever, but I still think it's cooler in the water, besides, what if we climb up again, and the other party gets nervous and shoots at us? It's better to just watch like this, they won't have much chance to jump anyway. Another pirate, who had just emerged from the water, let out a comfortable sigh of relief. For those Dutch warships that staggered by, there was not the slightest fear and panic in their eyes, but a look of longing and greed. "I don't know how many of these ships we can capture." A pirate playing the backstroke looked envious.

"Then it depends on how ruthless Brother Li Pao is." Another pirate made a shared opinion on this.

"These poor creatures, I hope they don't drown, and when the time comes, we'll have a few more free coolies to dig for gold." Brigadier Van Gaal looked at the Chinese sailors in the distance who were in a daze in the sea, and joked with a relaxed expression.

"Don't worry, it is said that there are more than 100,000 Chinese in Lanfang, and there are also hundreds of thousands of natives who have joined them, so many people are enough for us to develop the entire northern part of Baltic Continent." Correspondent Overmars was also relaxed, if it weren't for the discipline constraints, he would even want to move a small round table on the deck of this rear building, sip delicious black tea, and watch the brave soldiers effortlessly occupy another city of Lanfang Chinese.

"It seems that their harbor does not have artillery, or rather, their soldiers do not even have the courage to defend the harbor." Seeing that the battleships had approached less than a mile from the harbor and still not being attacked, Commodore van Gaal's first mate expressed his opinion.

"If we had known this, we should have set up our base camp here, not in Kendawangan." Commissioner Overmars said with regret.

At this time, Van Gaal took out his pocket watch from his bosom and looked at the time, turned his head to look north, and at this moment, he could only see the shadow of the sails about the past, and looked back again at the harbor where there were only one or two cats and dogs scurrying apart from the scattered boxes, clothes, and even shoes and socks. "Forget it, these guys are already hot-headed, don't wait for them any longer, tell Lieutenant Colonel Dink, get ready to dock."

"Yes General." The first mate, after a loud promise, ordered the signalmen to raise the flag, and a three-masted battleship to the left of their flagship began to sail slowly towards the docks. It didn't take long for nearly two hundred heavily armed Dutch soldiers to assemble on the docks, and they quickly occupied, or rather, entered the various vital points of the docks and guarded them.

Suddenly, the sound of dense artillery came from the north along the sea breeze, and Van Gaal subconsciously turned around and looked towards the north. Soon, another round of intense artillery fire appeared, and although it was far away, it still faintly reached their ears.

Van Gaal's brows couldn't help frowning: "What's the matter?" With such intensive artillery fire, did we encounter the main fleet of the Lanfang Chinese? ”

"What now, General, shall we immediately reinforce it." Overmars squinted hard and looked in vain through his telescope to the north, too far away to see anything more than the sails and the coastline at sea level.

"That's all I can do. In addition to Lieutenant Commander Dink's battleship, three more battleships were left just in case, and the others were all with me to ......" Brigadier General van Gaal gave the order loudly, and at this time, a dense artillery fire was suddenly heard, but not from the north, but from the southwest, that is, from behind them.

Almost all of them looked back in unison at this moment. "My God!" Agent Overmars's face instantly turned gray and he screamed in disbelief.

About seven miles behind them, one of their reconnaissance ships was slowly sinking into the sea, and the soldiers on board were jumping into the sea and swimming towards it with all their might. Behind them, tall masts were showing out of the sea, and tall and majestic warships were revealing their dark and sturdy hulls, and the Spanish flag flying high above the masts was waving in the wind.

"Alert, a large number of Spanish warships of unknown origin have been found in the rear, alert!" The soldiers standing in the mast watchtower shouted in their high-pitched voices. There was an unspeakable fear in his voice.

"What are the Spanish warships doing here? And when did they have such a powerful fleet here? That's impossible! The Dutch Commodore swallowed with difficulty, looking at the masts that were still appearing from the horizon, there were at least dozens of three-masted battleships on the other side, and even more than a dozen fourth-class battleships with slightly inferior firepower to third-class battleships, and other large and small warships made Van Gaal's scalp tingle.

It's like a swarm of locusts that are coming towards them.

"Alert! A large number of warships of unknown origin under the Spanish flag were found on the starboard side, alert! At this time, the soldier in the mast watchtower was like a soprano singer in an opera house, and he played a long note, which tasted like an aria, but there were too many trills.

Van Gaal turned his head to look over, and due west, there were also a large number of warships, but judging from the style of these warships, most of them should belong to the kind of eastern Fufune-type warships, but there were also a lot of them, and they were also flying the Spanish flag.

However, Van Gaal and the others soon came to the conclusion that the starboard ship should be a mercenary paid by the Spaniards.

"What's going on? What the fuck is going on, where the hell did these ships come from? Correspondent Overmars tugged at his wig so hard that he didn't even care about the bald areata that showed his head. The expression was like seeing a weak woman who was pounced on by the hooligan at the mouth of the black alley with a silver smile on her face, desperate and helpless. "Damn the Spaniards, do they want to go to war with us in the Netherlands?!"

"There are at least hundreds of warships, when did the Spaniards sail such a huge fleet to the East, could it be that their sworn enemies, the British, have been wiped out by them?" Van Gaal, the commodore general, couldn't help but have such a ridiculous idea in his head.

"Tut-tut, these Dutchmen seem to be a little dumbfounded." Xiaobai was expressing his opinion to Shi Xianggu, a young lady who was as calm as water beside him, with a proud face. "Miss, let's rush over and beat them up first."

Hearing Xiaobai's words, Shi Xianggu glanced at the personal guard who was still an innocent and romantic girl: "Don't worry, although the other party's warships are few, but the firepower should not be underestimated, if you don't pay attention to it, you may let the other party escape, tell Brother Tianbao, let his fleet keep the same speed with us, and approach the port." In addition, the flag was raised to tell the Dutch that we were not pirates, that we were the Spanish Luzon fleet, and that they would lay down their arms and surrender, that they would not resist needlessly, and that we would ensure that they were treated as prisoners of war as they deserved. When Shi Xianggu said the name of her fleet, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a strange smile. He raised his head to look at the Westerners in the uniforms of the Spanish Navy who were standing in a conspicuous place in the rear tower, their expressions were rather helpless.
