Chapter 760: The Second Battle of Malacca

"What?" Zhu Houhuang said: "Why is it so fast? ”

At this moment, Zhu Houhuang is already in the city of Malacca.

Malacca and Nanyang are the two main points of Zhu Houhuang's business in Nanyang, and they are each other's horns. Malacca is the gateway to the south and the west, with enough soldiers and food, and gunpowder has long been reserved.

Originally, Zhu Houhuang wanted to wait for Aceh to break the small countries above Sumatra, and then come to the rescue. It's just that after hearing the news of the massacre of Chinese in Aceh, he could no longer sit still, and immediately set out on an expedition and came to Malacca with the main fleet of Dongyong.

It's just that I just came to Malacca, and before I rested, I already got the news that the country of Sumatra was slaughtered, and all the small countries fell to the wind. The sailor came directly to Malacca.

Because of the difficulty of land roads, it is more convenient for the army to go by sea.

It's just that in this way, the Aceh side must face the stumbling block of Malacca.

"Your Highness. Our spies in the city of Sumatra did not come out alive at all, but someone heard the sound of artillery on the periphery, so the reason why Aceh was able to quickly capture Sumatra this time was because of the artillery used, a large number of artillery. Wu Fengyi said.

Wu Fengyi is very irritable now.

Originally, there were not many hidden piles on Sumatra Island, and the crazy massacre of the Acehnese people slaughtered many of the hidden piles of embroidered guards.

In this way, Wu Fengyi felt even more distressed, and where Aceh was standing, all news was almost cut off. And when he was fighting, it was when he needed information, but he couldn't get it at all, how not to make Wu Fengyi very distressed.

"Artillery, where did the artillery come from?" Zhu Houhuang asked.

It's not that Zhu Houhuang underestimates Aceh, and artillery production in this era is a high-tech weapon of the entire era, Aceh is a small country, even if it can manufacture artillery, but there will definitely not be a large number of artillery, this artillery must be foreign, in the Nanyang area, there are only two forces that can produce artillery in large quantities, one is Dongyong, and the other is a Franc machine.

Zhu Houhuang has already guessed.

Wu Fengyi's intelligence immediately verified his guess.

Wu Fengyi said: "According to the news from Goa, there are many artillery pieces produced in the Goa Artillery Factory. ”

"This one, it's not, or it's not just Aceh, there's a Francophone behind it." Zhu Houhuang said: "I just didn't expect it, I just didn't expect that their two sworn enemies would actually join forces." ”

"Newspaper. The West discovered enemy ships. A man said.

Zhu Houhuang set up beacon towers along the coast, and when the enemy warships were going down the river, the people had not yet arrived, and the beacon smoke had already made them leak the target.

Zhu Houhuang said: "Huang Shilong." ”

"The minister is here." Huang Shilong was extremely excited.

After he came to Dongyong, he was promoted and reused by Zhu Houhuang, overpowering many old people, and was naturally looked down upon by many people in the army. Huang Shilong has been holding his breath, wanting to prove himself.

Although Huang Shilong has standardized the training of sailors on top of training, he is even working on the compilation of the "Sailor Drill Code". But the place where soldiers really prove themselves is always on the battlefield.

It's just that after he came to Dongyong, he was in a period of peace, and the task of the sailor was more to train and fight pirates, and there was no evenly matched war at all.

And now the war is coming. How he does not rejoice.

This is proof that his time has come.

Zhu Houhuang looked at Huang Shilong and said, "Send troops and intercept the enemy fleet." You must be cautious, the Navy Division does not write the Army, and if the Army is defeated, Lone can still give you supplements, but the Navy Division is defeated, and Lone will not be able to give you any supplements for a while, you must be clear yourself. ”

"The minister understands that in this battle, prudence comes first, and he would rather not win than be defeated." Although Huang Shilong had a winning heart in his heart, he still said so.

Zhu Houhuang sighed and said, "You go." ”

In the past two years, the combat effectiveness of the sailors has been visibly improved under the training of Huang Shilong and Magellan, which also proves Huang Shilong's ability.

But Zhu Houhuang is still a little worried. However, Huang Shilong is already the best choice.

Huang Shilong immediately went to sea.

He went all out, and the Dongyong-type battleships lined up, about fifty warships, and the formation headed west, and it didn't take long for him to see the ships from the west.

Huang Shilong looked through the binoculars and only felt that there were two parts of these ships, one part of which was built by the Acehnese themselves. These ships range from large to small, many of them are patchwork, and some of them are of the Chinese type.

The other team has more rules, it is a Western-style ship, although the ship is large and has many guns, but the number is inevitably a little less.

When Huang Shilong was looking at each other, the other party was also looking at Huang Shilong.

Most of the sailors on these Western warships were provided by the Franco, because the Acehnese could provide some sailors, but they could not provide gunners, helmsmen, captains, and other candidates.

Even these ships were converted from Franco-Rang merchant ships with cannons, and the two sides seemed to be evenly matched.

Huang Shilong saw from a distance that a crescent moon flag was raised, this crescent flag was a little strange, the crescent moon on the top was opposite a star, and there was an Arabian long knife below.

It is the flag of Aceh.

The flag of the Franc machine is a crown on the top and a shield underneath, and there are other patterns on the shield, which looks more complicated.

Huang Shilong saw the enemy's lineup and immediately gave the order: "A long snake formation, rush over." ”

Huang Shilong saw the gap between the two of them, and didn't know if the cooperation between the two of them was not good, there was a gap in the middle, which just made Huang Shilong rush over.

Huang Shilong's fleet is all Dongyong-type warships accumulated over the years, completely except for the purpose of loading, and every part of the ship is designed for combat. In total, it is divided into three types: large, medium and small.

It is mainly a medium-sized, large warship, and there is only one, which is Zhu Houhuang's ship.

Zhu Houhuang's ship is the largest ship ever built by Dongyong, with 5,000 materials, which is almost the largest ship that can be built in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

It's just that at this moment, this ship was called by Huang Shilong and became his ship.

In fact, Dongyong did not want to build such a big ship. The first is the excess of power.

Dongyong's strength is above the East China Sea, and there is no need for such a warship, and the Franc fleet faced by Zhu Houhuang does not have such a big ship.

Second, the cost is too high, and one such large ship is better than three medium-sized ships in terms of cost. The number of Dongyong's new warships is insufficient, and it is better to make up for the number first.

Third, the process is not mature.

This big ship is almost a test ship, after all, the Ming craftsmen have not built such a large warship for a long time. Even Zhu Houhuang's ship has a lot of big and small problems. So before the craft matured, Zhu Houhuang didn't want to build in large quantities.

Even so, the power of this battleship is indeed superb.

When a 5,000-material battleship, almost a battleship of more than 1,000 tons, rushed out, the Aceh Navy was shaken, and many things were heard by others, and it was a completely different experience from seeing it yourself, as if it was now, Aceh may not know that Dongyong had such a big warship, but when the battleship was really in front of them, they still couldn't bear it.

Zhu Houhuang's ship is the largest ship ever built by Dongyong, with 5,000 materials, which is almost the largest ship that can be built in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

It's just that at this moment, this ship was called by Huang Shilong and became his ship.

In fact, Dongyong did not want to build such a big ship. The first is the excess of power.

Dongyong's strength is above the East China Sea, and there is no need for such a warship, and the Franc fleet faced by Zhu Houhuang does not have such a big ship.

Fourth, the cost is too high, and one such large ship is better than three medium-sized ships in terms of cost. The number of Dongyong's new warships is insufficient, and it is better to make up for the number first.

Fifth, the process is not mature.

This big ship is almost a test ship, after all, the Ming craftsmen have not built such a large warship for a long time. Even Zhu Houhuang's ship has a lot of big and small problems. So before the craft matured, Zhu Houhuang didn't want to build in large quantities.
