Western ships? This is really shocking news.

Although we have come to this era and are in the South China Sea region, we have long thought that we might deal with Westerners, but we did not expect this day to come so quickly, so suddenly, and in this situation.

"Does the other party have a flag?"

At first glance, everyone is quite calm. Pang Yu also asked the other party's information very carefully, and Tang Jian thought about it:

Xiao Huang looked at it from a distance with a telescope, and it seemed that there was a flag, with a few letters on it, with a capital letter, and there seemed to be a letter behind it...... "Oigne, Dutch East India Company, abbreviated as exactly that."

Ling Ning immediately made a judgment, it was not unusual to be able to guess that it was the East India Company, and the Western ships that had appeared in the nearby waters in the past few years were also suspicious of them, but the fact that they could casually report the full name in Dutch still shocked everyone, and many people began to look at Ling Ning with eager eyes:

"Yes, brother, do you speak Dutch?"

Facing everyone's "earnest" gaze, Ling Ning shook his hand again and again with some embarrassment:

"No, of course not, it's just that I used to play Age of Discovery IV, and I was more interested in the history of this period, so I just studied the East India Company specifically."

"Let's discuss it on the way, Xiao Huang and they are on their way back to the port, let's go back and join the Qionghai first, and then determine the countermeasures."

Tang Jian gave instructions, and he informed the others of the new situation through the walkie-talkie. After a brief discussion, it was decided that Ade and other comrades from the human resources team would stay behind and lead the local workers to continue to clean up the mess. The main force immediately returned to the county seat to deal with this emergency.

After that, Tang Jian patted Pang Yu's shoulder again:

"Hurry up, continue to make a plan, hurry!"

"Day, you really use me as a dog-headed military advisor...... Let's start with it, I'm not good at naval warfare. ”

Pang Yu chirped and cooed for a long time. But in the end, he accepted the task. Sudden new situations are complex, and now is not the time to complain.

On the way back, Pang Yu directly communicated with the Qionghai. Ask Huang Xiaodong and others for first-hand information.

"How many ships are there? …… Only three? Oh. Lin Lei is not bad...... Don't be afraid, no matter how big it is, it can't be bigger than our 3,000 tons. ”

"What about the ship's type? Can you make out that? …… Oh my day, you haven't played the Grand Voyage game before? What? Wang Ruobin knows? OK. Let him talk......"

Huang Xiaodong is really an honest boy, he has never heard of the Glorious Company's Age of Discovery, but he is still from a family of seafarers. Fortunately, there is also an otaku Wang Ruobin on the boat over there, this guy is not only interested in firearms, but also has a hobby of Western ship models. The young man has strong hands-on ability, and he can make his own black gun. Of course, I have also made my own ship models, and I am very interested in the study of ship types.

He told Pang Yu with certainty that the other party had two flues, the "Flute Ships" in the game Age of Discovery, which were dismissive for most players who saved enough money to build a large Galen, but these were transport ships that originated in the Netherlands.

The Flue was not usually used as a battleship in Europe, but could also be armed with a moderate number of guns. Its durability and seaworthiness are very good. Ideal for ocean voyages. Historically, most of the Dutch East India Company used this type of ship, and they used it as an armed merchant ship. When you encounter a port, you will grab a handful, and if you don't have a chance, you will do business honestly, which is a typical group of opportunists.

But the other one shocked Wang Ruobin extremely much, and his exaggerated tone made Pang Yu think that they had run into a big Galen battleship. But then, Wang Ruobin gave him a place name that he had never heard of before.

“ei… East Indians? What kind of ship is this? I've never heard of it. ”

Pang Yu's knowledge of ancient Western ships comes from Japan's Koei Company's "Age of Discovery", which made Wang Ruobin very disdainful, and then he had to simply popularize it to him that was not available in the sailing knowledge game.

The EI is named after the East Indian, which was launched in 1700 and was the world's finest full-rope boat, and it was not until 1837 that a similar descendant could break its speed record.

However, in today's era, a design similar to the "East Indian" already exists, and Wang Ruobin vaguely remembers that the world's first Ei type galleon was launched in 1602, less than 30 years ago. Its design is a combination of the experience gained from the voyages of many European ships to Asia, and it can be said to be the most advanced ship type in the world in this era.

Ships in this class are also the largest seagoing vessels in the world today, with displacements typically ranging from 1,100 to 1,400 tons. Throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, these ships were not only responsible for transporting tea, spices, porcelain, etc. from Asia to Europe, but also across the world's oceans.

The EI is not a simple merchant ship, due to its huge displacement, this class of ships can be equipped with heavy artillery on a large scale, so it is often painted as a warship. Its firepower can even be compared to that of the Great Galen, in fact, since the fall of the Spanish Armada in 1588, the bulky and slow Great Galen ship has been largely abandoned, and the most popular form of warship is now the British improved Galen, also known as the "Queen's Ship".

Of course, it is unrealistic to expect a layman like Pang Yu to fully grasp this knowledge in a short period of time. Fortunately, Wang Ruobin has a very vivid real-life example at hand:

"Do you know the Gothenburg? 200 years to visit the Wèn China land? ”

"Of course, I also visited when I was parked in Shanghai, and the fifty yuan ticket is trivial, but I queued for two hours just to ......."

Pang Yu immediately remembered the visit that left him with a deep impression, so that Wang Ruobin finally succeeded in establishing an intuitive impression for him.

"The Gothenburg is a typical Easindi-class ship, and we ran into a real guy this time."

Wang Ruobin's tone was still faintly excited, this rabbit cub probably didn't think about how to deal with it at all, or didn't care that someone was going to worry about it anyway.

Putting down the phone, Pang Yu's face was a little angry, and he was not too worried about these Dutch. The Dutch East India Company was established in 02, and although it has developed rapidly, it is not a big force in the South China Sea at present. Originally, it was thought that one armed merchant ship would have no more than 200 people at best, and three ships would only have 700 people in the sky, and the main force here would be able to deal with it when it was transferred back.

Even if you really want to fight a naval battle, you are not afraid, this year's naval battle still depends on the tonnage of the 3,000-ton iron guy of the Qionghai, and the flue wooden sailboat is only a few hundred tons.

But now that a large guy with a displacement of 1,000 tons has suddenly been added to it, the shape of shì is immediately different. If this was a battleship comparable to the Great Galen, it would have been loaded with more than a hundred guns and probably a thousand soldiers. No matter how advanced the technology of the Qionghai is, after all, it is an unarmed passenger and cargo ship, and it is too reluctant to deal with the most advanced warships of this era.

"Day...... When did the Dutch have such a strong force? ”

Pang Yu was very depressed, he still remembered that three years later in history, the fiercest battle between the Dutch and Ming in the sea battle of Liuluo Bay, by 1633, the East India Company had only a total of galleons in Asia, basically all of them were of the Flue class, and he had never heard of what kind of ei they had.

"I also wonder that I never remembered that the Dutch East India Company had such a large ship in Asia."

Ling Ning also used another walkie-talkie to listen to Wang Ruobin's report, and he had just raised a question, but Wang Ruobin was sure that he would not admit his mistake, because he had made this type of ship model by himself.

Now that the otaku is so sure, it is no longer good to doubt the accuracy of the information he provided. It's impossible to go to the Dutch ship and protest that you shouldn't be here according to history...... Since you are here, you have to think of a good "hospitality".

What is their purpose? Are you sure it's coming for us? ”

Wen Desi still had a hint of luck, and Ling Ning just sneered at this:

"Don't worry, it's definitely not here to make soy sauce."

Pang Yu also smiled bitterly and patted Wen Dehei's shoulder:

"At the beginning, I wondered: why those Dutch people were suddenly so enthusiastic, and they were willing to take the initiative to lend the Ming army firearms to kill us, and now the truth is revealed.

"Give up the illusion of a qiē and base ourselves on military struggle."

Tang Jian's words set the tone for all plans. No matter how the shape changes, these traversers must firmly hold the initiative in their hands.

Your own destiny can only be controlled by yourself.
