At night, the sea seems to be splashed with ink, and it looks pitch black, which makes people's psychology very bottomless. Gently wiped it on his face, and the whole person suddenly felt a lot more energetic, and the wet and cool sea breeze made the whole person uncomfortable.

"It's so late, why doesn't General Qi go to sleep? Worried about tomorrow's battle? Zhang Yukun walked up to the deck in a long robe, and when he saw Qi Jin standing there, he walked over and said with a smile.

"Uncle Shi laughed, with Uncle Shi in charge, how could Qi Jin not be at ease? But this time the stakes are very high, and there can't be the slightest mistake! Qi Jin smiled bitterly and shook his head, although he had absolute confidence in victory, Qi Jin was still a little nervous in his heart. He and Yu Zhigao are deeply valued by the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and this time there must be no mistakes. In Qi Jin's opinion, once there is a slight omission, he will not have the face to see the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

Nodding with a smile, Zhang Yukun walked to the side of the pass, held the boat with both hands, and said to Qi Jin with a smile: "There are some things that we are powerless to change, and we just do our best to obey the destiny of heaven." General Qi is a veteran general on the battlefield, and he was a little confused before the war, which is really human nature. I believe that General Qi will definitely be able to sweep away the demons in his heart, and perhaps as long as he hears the sound of gunfire, this demon will not exist. ”

Qi Jin didn't answer, Zhang Yukun didn't speak, the two of them just stood quietly, waiting for the dawn to come. The only tranquility before the war made the excitement of every soldier slowly calm down, but the next excitement may be the momentum of the mountain and the tsunami.

The sun was slowly scattered on the sea, and the people on the fleet were busy, no one made a sound, just kept their heads down and worked. The whole fleet was busy in an orderly manner, and they were familiar with such things. Witt was dressed in a military uniform, holding a telescope in his hand, and with a smile on his face, after today, it will be the Dutch to unify the Taiwan Strait.

A cacophony in the distance reached Waite's ears, which made him frown. When he was sure where the voice was coming from, a fierce flash flashed in Waite's eyes.

"These Ming people are really hateful, they must have done it on purpose!" Brian walked over to Waite's side and looked at Zheng Zhilong's fleet. He cursed incessantly. Seeing that Waite didn't speak, Brian continued: "Your Excellency, I don't think it's really useful for us to bring them here. They won't help us fight, and they may fall into trouble at some point. ”

Glancing back at Brian, Witt smiled indifferently and explained, "Even if they don't help, it's good to have them by our side." If we let it go, I'm afraid that after we finish fighting the Spaniards, our Penghu will also belong to Zheng Zhilong. Now he definitely didn't dare to act rashly. After all, the Spaniards have not been destroyed, and it is not yet time for us to fight a decisive battle. Of course, if we can't easily eliminate the Spaniards, I'm afraid that Zheng Zhilong will do it against us after us. ”

Gradually, the darkness dissipated, and the high tide began. It also means that the offensive is about to begin!

The Spaniards did not build a city in Keelung Harbor, but instead chose Shiliao Island, which is not far from Keelung. Keelung is a place surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing the sea on one side, and the geographical location of Liao Island is very important, which can be said to be the gateway of the entire Keelung. The Spaniards originally wanted to build a fortress here, but they only had time to build the city, and the name of the city was already in mind, which was called San Salvador.

Raul was an ordinary soldier in Spain. Sitting there is something that many people are unwilling to do, and that is guarding the tower. Because the tower is tall and equipped with a telescope, you can see the surroundings very clearly. He had to get up once in a quarter of an hour to see it, and let the sea breeze blow on him, and Raul hated the errand.

But that's my job. Even though Raul wanted to change jobs, he didn't have the money to bribe his boss. For the Spaniards, this time they came to the Taiwan Strait, they must have to gain a foothold.

Slowly standing up, Raul took out the binoculars. I looked at the sea in the distance. Raul didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, if there was really any mistake, he was afraid that he would die. Originally, he always didn't care about these things, but this time the expression on Raul's face froze.

On the surface of the sea, many small black spots slowly appeared, and as a naval lookout, Raul knew very well that it was a large fleet. Cold sweat suddenly ran down his face, and he wiped his hands on his body as he opened his eyes widely. There are Spanish warships docked in the bay, and there are warships patrolling the periphery, and such a large fleet is definitely not its own people.

Trembling his hands to the side of the alarm, Raul couldn't help but shout loudly, "There is an enemy attack!" The sound didn't go far, but the sirens quickly sounded throughout the city of San Salvador. The Spanish soldiers in the city quickly ran to the fortifications that had been prepared in advance, and the soldiers on the ships quickly boarded their ships and began to raise the sails, shouting and cursing throughout the port.

Soon the commander of the Spanish fleet, Radwa, walked up to the watchtower, picked up the binoculars on his chest and looked at it, and the expression on his face suddenly became solemn. Ignoring Raul, who was already stunned, he strode down the floor.

"Order, everyone board! Drive your ships out of port and get ready to meet the enemy! All land batteries, fully loaded. The fleet is within range of the land batteries, spread out and prepare for battle! "With a brief order, leaving things on the shore to his own deputy, Radwa went directly to his own flagship.

The battle was finally coming, and the Spaniards were very excited, and a little nervous. I've been looking forward to it for a long time, and it's finally here!

Standing at the bow of the flagship, Waite raised the telescope in front of him and looked at the busy Spanish port in the distance, with a little mockery on his face. Glancing at Zheng Zhilong's team not far away, he turned back to the herald beside him and said, "The fleet is rapidly deployed, and now the Spanish warships on the periphery will be eliminated." ”

With the help of the rising tide, the Dutch fleet advanced rapidly, and soon the Spanish patrol ships were within range. Seeing their ship turn sideways, Waite's face furrowed, and the Spaniards were not slow to react. However, this did not surprise Werther, and he directly ordered: "Shoot in the division, sink these warships as soon as possible." ”

At this time, the three Spanish patrol ships had already prepared their guns, and the baffles were all lowered, and the muzzles of the black holes stretched out in an instant. There were twenty lateral guns, and the Dutch ships were ready to fire. Although there were only three warships, they didn't want to get into the mouth of the tiger at this time, but they had no choice but to buy time for the warships in the harbor.

If three patrol ships retreated, and the rest of the warships were blocked in the harbor, the consequences would be unimaginable.

As soon as the battle broke out, the silence of the sea was soon broken by the roar of artillery, and puffs of white smoke rose and shells whistled through the air.

The division of labor of the Dutch was very clear, and the five battleships had already crossed over, and the sidestring guns were constantly spraying shells. The rest of the warships did not stop, and rushed towards the harbor.

The battle was soon over, three Spanish ships were torn to shreds, and there were drifting logs everywhere, as well as wailing Spanish navy. No one cared about this, and the Dutch were determined to keep the Spanish fleet in the harbor. After a split second of the encounter, the Dutch realized that it was a tough battle.

Seven of the thirty auxiliary ships were sunk, and one Dutchman ship was hit by several shells, and the ship had already begun to leak, and it was only a matter of time before it sank. The Dutch soldiers on board had already begun to lower the lifeboats, apparently preparing to abandon ship to save their lives!

"Give Zheng Zhilong a flag and let his people come up, you can't let them pick up cheap!" Waite's face darkened as he instructed the herald on the side.

"Big brother, the Dutch are in a hurry!" Zheng Zhihu looked at the flag of the Dutch, his face suddenly smiled, stretched out his hand and pointed at the Dutch fleet, and said to Zheng Zhilong behind him.

didn't seem to hear Zheng Zhihu's words, Zheng Zhilong frowned slightly, and kept thinking in his heart, what should he do? The difficulty of the Spaniards seems to have been unexpected, and if they do not participate, the Dutch may not necessarily treat the Spaniards as well.

If it is withdrawn like this, the Taiwan Strait will still be three-legged, and it is impossible for the Dutch to throw all their warships here. Even if he wiped out the Dutch fleet here, there were still their people in Penghu. Moreover, he and the Spaniards had already torn their faces, and the Spaniards probably would not sit idly by and watch themselves eliminate the Dutch. After thinking about it, while he hadn't torn his face with the Dutch yet, it was only right to kill these Spaniards first.

"Second brother, you go with fifty ships to minimize casualties! You know the small ships of the Spaniards, and the big ships are handed over to the Dutch to fight. Since he had made up his mind to pay attention, Zheng Zhilong would not hesitate, and directly instructed the second brother on the side.

"Big brother, don't we see the excitement? Let them fight first, and we'll pick up the cheap last. Zheng Zhihu looked at Zheng Zhilong with a little puzzlement and said hesitantly.

Shaking his head, Zheng Zhilong said in a deep voice: "It's not so easy to pick up cheap, do what I say!" ”

"Yes, big brother!" I can only suggest it, as soon as I look at Zheng Zhilong's appearance, Zheng Zhihu knows that the eldest brother has made up his mind. Nodding solemnly, he turned around and beckoned to get to the gangplank, he needed to get to his ship.

The Dutch's plan did not succeed after all, perhaps the Spanish had been prepared, and by the time they eliminated the three patrol ships, the Spanish fleet had already rushed out of the bay. At the front were the Spanish warships, and behind were the coercive troops from Manila, although their warships were not as good as the Dutch and Spaniards, but they were in the middle of Zheng Zhilong's warships.
