The battle to recover Taiwan has attracted widespread attention in Nanjing, and the streets and alleys have been discussing this matter in the past two days.

No one doubted that the Chinese army would not be able to defeat the island of Taiwan, because this time it was the invincible Seventh Division, which began to garrison Yangzhou, fought a bloody battle in Guazhou, took Jinan alone, and then came to Beijing to pursue Hong Chengchou for thousands of miles, and every battle could be talked about by the people of Nanjing.

What's more, most of the officers and men of the Seventh Division are from Nanjing and Yangzhou, and it is reasonable for everyone to pay attention to the fact that their soldiers are fighting at sea.

Luo Jian was dragged by Scofar to guard the General Staff, where the telegraph was ready to receive news from the Strait.

At eleven o'clock in the morning of 16 April, the telegraph operator finally came over with a smile on his face and a translated telegram.

"Haha, great, the Dutch fleet has surrendered! Schmidt, that's great! Yes? Xinghua, I don't believe my eyes anymore. The thick and steady Shi Kefa was as excited as a child at this time, and shouted at Luo Jian with the folder in his hand.

"What's it that makes Brother Xian not believe his eyes? Don't say it yet, let me guess? It can't be that Oki and their fleet have just returned to catch up with the battle, right? Luo Jian said with a smile.

"Xinghua, you still say that you are not an immortal, do you know this?" Shi Kefa stared at Luo Jian suspiciously.

"What a mess, Brother Xian, are you happy and confused? This telegram was sent by Minister Zheng from the warship, and there could be no other news, the Dutch fleet had surrendered. Except for Oki, they're back. What else could make you so happy? Luo Jian said with a smile.

"Come on. You go and call a few staff officers to come over, and everyone will be happy and happy when they are so happy. Scofa said to the telegraph operator.

After a while, a few combat staff officers came and saluted the two of them.

"Hurry up and get a big sign, write the surrender of the Dutch fleet on the big sign, and go out on the street and hold it up for everyone to see, so that everyone will be happy." Shi Kefa said.

When several operational staff officers heard that the fleet had won the battle, they were so happy that they prepared to go.

"Brother Xian, we can't be too happy. I know that the Dutch have built complete fortifications on the island of Taiwan. Luo Jian said calmly.

"I said Xinghua, can you not grow other people's ambition and destroy your own prestige, the seven divisions are all on board, and you are still afraid of their fortifications, their fortifications are as powerful as the turtle shell cultivated by Hong Chengchou?" Shi Kefa glanced at Luo Jian dissatisfiedly and said.

Ignoring Shi Kefa's complaints, Luo Jian walked to the Taiwan situation map hanging on the wall and looked carefully, the main forces of the Dutch are now concentrated in the Tainan area of the later generations, which created conditions for the Seventh Division to fight a war of annihilation, and the main fleet is currently all there. There will certainly be no problems with the support firepower, and now it will depend on the outcome of the negotiations.

Negotiations aboard the "Qi Jiguang" have ended. Wang Qiang did not give the opportunity to discuss the conditions at all, and there was only one condition for the Chinese army, that is, unconditional surrender.

It was difficult to go back quickly, because during the negotiations, the "Qi Jiguang" and the fleet did not stop, and kept approaching the city of Reranza.

The commander of the city of Geranza stood on the wall of the semi-circular fort of the city of Geranza, holding a monocular in his hand, and looked at the Chinese ships that were approaching, and felt a twitch in his heart.

To tell the truth, when the Chinese government asked the Dutch to withdraw from Taiwan, he really wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to have a good talk with the Chinese government.

However, few people from Batavia President Moschel are willing to cede the island of Taiwan to China, and they think that the Dutch have been working the island for more than 30 years, building an uncivilized island into its current state, and leaving it to the Chinese government in vain.

What's more, in their assessment of China's situation, they believe that China has just experienced a civil war, and the wounds of the war are far from healing, even if the Chinese warships are very powerful, they are not capable of launching a full-scale attack on the island of Taiwan, and even if they want to attack, it will have to wait a year or two later, but no one expected the Chinese government to launch an attack on the island of Taiwan so soon.

The fleet stopped two kilometers away from the city of Geranza, and the "Qi Jiguang" released the boat, and was about to send the depiction back, and the merchant ship they were on was pulled far behind.

As soon as he watched the boat come to the shore, he walked down from the boat and walked towards the city of Geranza with his head down, and felt very bad in his heart, and it could be seen from his expression that his negotiations had not achieved any results.

The Chinese gave only an hour to give them a little, and if they did not reply at three o'clock in the afternoon, they would bombard the city of Relanza.

By the time he reached the city, he had already gathered the officers in the city to discuss how to deal with it, and when he heard that the Chinese army had given him an unconditional surrender, he was silent, and the officers began to jump.

"The Chinese's warships are powerful, but they are not our opponents on land!" Captain Alpdo shouted.

"That is, our castle is so strong, the Chinese cannot take it, and if they can't attack it for a long time, they will definitely retreat." Captain Pierder then shouted.

"The Chinese are so arrogant that they must be taught a lesson." Major Harhauville slapped the table vigorously and shouted.

The officers were filled with righteous indignation, and they all said that they would fight to the death with the Chinese army, and they took out a pocket watch made in Nanjing, looked at the time, and then looked up at the governor of Taiwan and the commander of the city of Gelanza.

"Prepare for battle, Major Describing Hardship, hurry back to the city of Provencha (the city of Chichi), and if the city of Geranza cannot be saved, you can run to the east, and I will send someone to inform Batavia and ask them to provide you with as much support as possible."

Seeing that the officers were all asking for a battle, he was also very helpless, so he said to the difficult description.

Zheng Zhilong, Wang Qiang, and Zheng Chenggong stood on the main deck of the "Qi Jiguang", all three of them were holding binoculars in their hands and looking at Relan Shacheng, and Zheng Zhilong kept looking at the pocket watch in his hand.

"Order the ships to be combat-ready. The Dutch had no intention of surrendering at all. Zheng Zhilong pointed to the Dutch soldiers running around the city of Geranza.

"Big wood. You didn't fight them in Europe this time? Wang Qiang looked at it for a while. I can't see anything famous, and there are still more than twenty minutes left, so I pulled Zheng Chenggong to the pony and sat down.

"Don't fight much, there are a lot of little pirates along the way, some of them hide when they see us, and some of them want to come and rob us, so it goes without saying the result, right?" Zheng Chenggong said with a smile.

"I'm not talking about pirates, I'm talking about the countries of Europe. For example, countries like Britain and Spain have very strong maritime power. Wang Qiang glanced at Zheng Chenggong, meaning to beat a few little pirates and tell me something.

"You said England, we didn't go there, we went from the Strait of Gibraltar to the Mediterranean, we were a merchant fleet, no one fought us, and there we sold all the goods, and we found the cows of the Grand Governor from France, and then we sailed back." Zheng Chenggong said succinctly.

"You didn't go to the Sea King? Didn't you say you were going to fight it? Wang Qiang said with a smile.

"What am I looking for it for? Far away. I didn't run into it this time, but if I did. If you don't mess with me, forget it, if you mess with me, then I won't be polite. Zheng Chenggong's eyes were still staring at Relan Shacheng, and he was talking to Wang Qiang without saying a word.

"Xiao Wang, aren't you worried at all? The city of Geranza is made of stone, but it is very strong. Zheng Zhilong turned his head and said to Wang Qiang.

"Minister Zheng, you don't have to worry, after our bombardment, the Dutch are eighty percent sure that they will surrender, even if they don't surrender, I have a way to easily take the city of Geranza." Wang Qiang said very confidently that after seeing the history of Zheng Chenggong's attack on Relanza City in another time and space, he knew where the weakness of Reranza City was.

"Master Wang, what kind of 'immortal' means do you have?" Zheng Zhilong said with a smile.

"Haha, fairy means? If you don't have it, you can just watch it when the time comes. Wang Qiang said with a smile.

Wang Qiang raised his hand and looked at his watch, it was already 2:50, and it was only ten minutes before the cannon was fired, Wang Qiang stood up and walked to the side of the main gun of the "Qi Jiguang", and said to the gun commander Liu Zhuzi:

"What's your name?"

"Sir, my name is Pillar, Sir, please instruct!"

"Pillar, come and see, do you see the flag of the Dutch? It's right there, don't fight anywhere else for a while, just hit me at this flag, do you think it's okay? Wang Qiang handed the telescope in his hand to the pillar and pointed to the Dutch flag on the flagpole in the city of Géranzai.

The pillar did not immediately agree, stretched out his arm and gestured, and looked at the gun mirror for a long time, then raised his head and said, "Report to the chief, there is no problem!" ”

After speaking, the pillar personally adjusted the firing of the main gun and aimed directly at the Dutch flag.

Zheng Zhilong picked up the pocket watch and looked at it, and said to the herald: "It's time!" Order the ships to open fire! ”

The red flag in the herald's hand waved vigorously, and as the order was issued, a side gun on the "Qi Jiguang" opened fire first, followed by a cannon on the "Yue Fei" and "Ran Min".

Three shells flew directly at the city of Geranza, one shell hit the semi-circular fort, one hit the city wall on the right, and one hit the inner city.

"Good! Just hit it like that! Zheng Zhilong saw the impact point from the telescope and shouted happily.

Seeing Zheng Zhilong's happy appearance, Wang Qiang was a little amused. This kind of shooting is purely no different from target shooting, the warship is anchored, and the city of Geranza on the opposite side is so large that it would be a joke if it missed.

"Xiao Wang, what if the Dutch abandon the city and run to the hinterland of Taiwan?" Zheng Chenggong asked Wang Qiang with some concern.

"Run? As long as they can outrun the Seventh Division, then they can run! I will chase them so that there is no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth! Wang Qiang said through gritted teeth.

"Ohki, you don't know yet, do you? Master Wang chased Hong Chengchou for one or two thousand miles in Sichuan and Yunnan, and forced Hong Chengchou to commit suicide. Zheng Zhilong said with a smile next to him.

"Xiao Wang, did you kill Hong Chengchou? So the southwest is already at peace? Zheng Chenggong asked in surprise.

"But no, Li Chengdong and Commander Li are now guarding in the southwest." Zheng Zhilong took the words and said loudly, all the ships were opened, and the voice was so low that he couldn't hear it at all.

Zheng Chenggong stretched out a thumbs up to Wang Qiang, who smiled and shook his head. (To be continued.) )
