Ming Ruxin carefully studied before the war, the Dutch had two important strongholds, one was the city of Taiwan, also known as the city of Geranza, and the other was called the city of Chichi. Both places are in the later Tainan City, where the coastline is tortuous, there is an inner harbor called Taijiang, and the red city is on the land on the east side of the Taijiang River, guarding the main road from the north to the south. The city of Geranza is located between a string of islands in the sea, and the terrain is dangerous, which prevents the navy from attacking.

When formulating the battle plan, considering that the Red Embedded City was built in a later period and had not yet been completed, the defense force was weak, and the defenders were few, so it was handed over to Mao Chenglu's army to solve it. In the direction of the city of Geranza, the navy will take out the Dutch fleet, and then take siege measures to completely destroy the Dutch army.

Fight in both directions, resolve the battle as quickly as possible, and be prepared to take on the Dutch counterattack. At the same time, the Ming army will also move south, attack Luzon, and even kill on the island of Java.

Going to war with the Netherlands and Spain at the same time seems a bit arrogant, but Zhang Ke has full self-confidence.

The Spaniards have gone downhill, the Armada has perished, even if they want to transfer troops to East Asia, how much time will it take, I am afraid that the army will come from an expedition, and it will not be enough for the Ming army to plug their teeth.

As for the Dutch, after all, they only have a population of two million, which is too small compared to the Ming Dynasty.

The only thing to worry about is that Westerners are joining forces, such as the United Kingdom, France, and Portugal, and things may be a little more troublesome.

However, Zhang Ke had already sent people to contact the missionaries in Macao at the same time as he sent the troops, and found the British, who had unparalleled experience in what to do as a thousand-year-old-stirring stick.

What we have to do now is to meddle in Nanyang with a super strong attitude, kill the Dutch chicken, and scare the other monkeys, so that they can understand that they can only cooperate with the Celestial Empire, not fight against it!

Of course, all this is based on strength. The battle of the city of Geranza cannot afford to lose.

"Yan Sixian!"

"The last general!" Turned around a strong man less than thirty with a black and red face. His brother's name is Yan Siqi, a sea giant named after Li Dan, and he even overwhelmed Li Dan in the limelight, but later he suddenly contracted malaria and died violently at sea.

As soon as Yan Siqi died, his subordinates fell apart, and a group of pirates led by Zheng Zhilong accepted the imperial court's recruitment and became official court officials.

As for Yan Sixian and others, they felt that the imperial court was unreliable. Hearing that Li Dan was booming, they decided to take refuge in King Anton's account. At that time, Zheng Zhilong also laughed at them, saying that they could be sons, but they were grandsons, and they didn't treat the Zhu family as courtiers and the Zhang family as slaves, which was simply a bad brain!

So far, Yan Sixian dares to say it loudly, Lao Tzu's brain is not broken!

Follow the Ming Court. When could he command so many ships and compete for dominance at sea, he took this step too wisely.

"Yan Sixian, you lead twenty warships. Together with ten troop carriers, taking advantage of the high tide, they broke through the northern channel into Luermen and attacked the rear of the city of Geranza. At the same time, a team of men and horses was divided to assist in the attack on the Red Embedded City. ”

"Humble duty understands!"

Yan Sixian immediately ordered thirty ships to be separated from the Grand Fleet. Change course and head towards Luermen. It was a blind spot for the Dutch, and the channel was extremely narrow, full of reefs, and dangerous. Only at high tide can big ships pass, but Yan Sixian is full of confidence, he has followed his brother at sea for many years, no matter how treacherous the environment, he can cope with it. In comparison, Ming Ruxin's seafaring skills are not as good as him.

Ming Ruxin calmed down a little, and the fleet continued to the south, and suddenly, the wind and waves on the sea suddenly became violent, and the sky was covered with thick clouds and black clouds.

Not long after, torrential rain and strong winds struck towards the fleet.

The wind roared, the white waves were raging, and the waves several feet high were one after another, lapping the boats. The water rushed onto the deck, and some of the clothes that had not had time to pack were washed into the sea.

Thousand-ton warships are like small boats on the sea, rocking up and down.

"Send the order down and tell all the sailors to keep their posts and deal with them with all their might."

"Yes!"

For the wind and waves, Ming Ruxin can be regarded as much progressive, and he has seen a wide range of things, and he is not too worried. After all, their ships are big enough to cope.

Sure enough, the storm on the sea came and went quickly, and after almost an hour, the thick clouds dissipated, revealing a clear day.

But before everyone could relax, a few white sails suddenly appeared from the sea level, and soon a fleet appeared in front of them.

"It's the Red Hair! Full Arms Battle! ”

After getting closer, through the telescope, Ming Ruxin could see clearly that the front warship on the opposite side had five masts and three decks, according to estimates, it should be similar to his ship, all of them were behemoths of more than 2,000 tons.

The sailor has been established for so long, and he has never met an opponent of the same level, and he used to rely on the strong to bully the weak, which is not interesting. Ming Ruxin's blood was boiling, he immediately waved the flag, his ship and another huge ship at the head, and the Ming army quickly formed two columns and rushed up against the Dutch.

As the two sides approached rapidly, the sailors of the Ming army hurriedly carried the shells, loaded the artillery, and prepared to shoot, when suddenly the Dutch battleship let out a roar, and the huge cannonballs streaked across the sky and shot at the Ming ships.

At this time, the distance was almost two thousand meters or so, and Ming Ruxin's heart couldn't help but shrink, he understood very well what this meant, the Dutch's artillery skills and soldier level were above his soldiers, and the other party was hard stubble.

"Approaching quickly, fight with the red-haired devil!"

Most of the Dutch shells fell in the sea, and only one hit the side of the ship, causing casualties to two sailors, which did not do much damage to the Ming army's combat strength, but on the contrary, aroused everyone's ambition.

"Fire!"

Finally entering a distance of 1,500 meters, the Ming artillery roared. On the surface of the sea, you can only see clusters of fire shooting towards each other.

The first shot didn't hit, it didn't matter, hurry up and correct it, keep shooting, the soldiers are full of energy.

Rumble!

Finally, a shell hit the Dutch warship, piercing through the side and making a hole of more than a meter. The soldiers cheered loudly, and before that, two shells hit the Ming troops.

Although they have the advantage of numbers, the hit rate is far inferior to that of the Dutch, Ming Ruxin's old face is flushed, and he finally understands Zhang Ke's warning, Westerners fight the wind and waves at sea, kill and conquer, and their combat power is far above the Ming army like a white rabbit.

But don't worry, we have more options!

Ming Ruxin commanded the bombardment on the one hand, and gave orders to the other ships on the other, and in the blink of an eye, five warships sailed out quickly, the tonnage was not large, but the speed was extremely fast, after reaching the flank of the Dutch, a roar sounded above the ships, and each ship sprayed twenty rockets, a total of one hundred, covering the sky and the sun and shooting towards the Dutch.
