Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 911 The target of public criticism
On the sea to the east of the seaway, seven or eight Dutch warships turned straight towards the seaway, and the first two of them had already begun to turn their rudders.

"My god! Chief officer, let them come back quickly!" Liu Hongjian shouted at Bu Jiageng.

He also didn't expect that the Dutchman would dare to return the carbine. Several lucky boats rushed forward to block the river, leaving only Liu Hongjian's flagship on the sea, and Liu Hongjian was also taken aback.

Bu Jiageng asked the second officer to be in charge of the artillery, and at the same time ordered the flag bearer to issue a semaphore to summon the lucky boats to come back to protect the flagship.

However, there was no time at all, and the Invincible was surrounded by seven or eight Dutch warships after only one round of shelling.

Boom—boom——

A circle of Dutch warships fired successively, hitting the Invincible until the hull trembled wildly. Due to the close distance and too dense shells, the deck of the Invincible was the first to suffer.

At this time, the pouring technology was not yet proficient enough. The weakest part of the new ironclad ship was actually the deck. The hull steel plate was relatively thick and solid bullets could not penetrate it, but the deck could not.

The first to suffer were the dozen or so gunners on the deck. The solid bullets hit the deck and rampaged around, knocking the gunners to pieces.

"Your uncle! The first officer hastened to fire on me!" Liu Hongjian shouted as he saw the horror on the deck, his face turned green, and he made a gesture to go out to command.

"My lord! You must not go out, I will go down and have a look!" Bu Jiageng was terrified, and winked at Niu Dabai.

Long before the expedition, Qi Yuangong had specifically explained to Bu Jiageng that his only mission was to ensure Liu Hongjian's safety, and if something happened to Liu Hongjian, everyone would definitely bear Zhu Cihong's wrath.

Although Niu Dabangchui had a rough nerve, he also understood the danger outside, so he directly blocked the door, so Bu Jiageng went down to the bottom deck to check in peace.

"Big stick, hurry up and drive away!" Liu Hongjian said angrily, thinking how could he hide in the cabin at this time.

"Master, unless you cut me with a knife, I will never let you out."

……

After the shelling lasted for several rounds, the lucky boats in the seaway sped up one after another. Fortunately, the Invincible was too thick, and the Dutch warship did not do anything to the Invincible except for some damage to the deck.

Even so, the captains of the other Fuchuan were terrified, and one Fuchuan was eager to save people and rammed directly towards the Dutch warship.

At this time, eight or nine blessing boats came from the rear. Qi Yuangong was worried that Liu Hongjian would meet the enemy alone, so he specially sent Qi Laosan to help.

Qi Laosan happened to see Liu Hongjian's flagship Invincible being besieged by Dutch warships, so he screamed and rushed towards the sea at full speed.

Seeing this, the Dutch warship immediately transferred the warship and fled eastward. Worried that something might happen to Liu Hongjian, Qi Laosan held back his anger after driving away the Dutch warship. A semaphore was issued to confirm Liu Hongjian's safety.

After learning that Liu Hongjian was safe, Qi Laosan was still resentful. Seeing a Dutch warship not far away due to serious injuries and incapacitated, he ordered Fu Chuan to fire at the Dutch warship.

After a round of bombardment by more than a dozen Fu boats, the Dutch warship was directly blasted to pieces and quickly sank in the boundless sea.

"My lord, please punish me for being late for drunk driving!" Qi Laosan knelt down as soon as he climbed onto the flagship.

At this time, he was no longer a rascal who asked Liu Hongjian for money at the poker table. No matter whether Liu Hongjian gave the order or not, as long as his boss was in danger, his subordinates were always responsible.

"Get up and don't blame you, the dog R's Dutchman still keeps this hand, Qi Laosan, go and see if there are other sea routes around!" After Liu Hongjian finished speaking, an AKM suddenly appeared in his hand.

After the sinking of the Dutch battleship, there were panicked Dutchmen floating around on the sea. They each lay on a wooden board and shouted something in Dutch.

Liu Hongjian didn't understand and didn't intend to respond, so he put the AKM on the side of the boat and started playing gophers.

……

An hour later, the naval battle in Luzon Port ended. Except for Lancelot who took the lead in escaping from the seaway with five Dutch warships, the main Dutch Batavia fleet was completely wiped out. The Daming Navy proved who is the real warship with actual combat. Overlord of the seas.

It is not very strict to say that the entire army was wiped out. In fact, after the three forts were paralyzed, the Dutchman, who was not afraid of death, surrendered decisively. At least a dozen Dutch warships were completely incorporated by the Daming Navy.

Unfortunately, the more than 3000 Dutch who surrendered did not see the sun the next day. Liu Hongjian's humanitarianism only includes countries with prior humanitarianism.

Obviously, the Dutch state is not.

The naval battle at Luzon Port went fairly smoothly. The Daming Navy only lost one No. [-] Fuchuan and three No. [-] Fuchuan, and the battle loss rate was less than [-]%.

Soon the news of the annihilation of the Batavia fleet of the Dutch East India Company spread to the Luzon Islands, and then spread rapidly through the local indigenous people.

The local aborigines, who had been squeezed and slaughtered by the Dutch colonists, immediately organized a counterattack and killed all the Dutch in the Luzon Islands, even the Frangji people.

Many of these people were Han Chinese, and because the local indigenous tribes had been dispersed by the colonists, Liu Hongjian appointed several local Han Chinese as temporary commanders, and left a small number of imperial guards to take over. The harbor and forts of Luzon.

Three days later, the Daming Navy set foot on the sea route to crusade against the Netherlands again, all the way south from Luzon to Manila. The local Dutch either fled or were killed by the natives.

The fleet went northwest to Banten without stopping. Alden, who was in charge of affairs in the Banten area, was still preparing for the final retreat, but was eventually wiped out by the Ming fleet due to the obstruction of the natives.

As the two important strongholds of the Indian East India Company, Luzon and Banten were successively uprooted, and the Dutch colonists completely became the target of the Nanyang natives.

Half a month later, the Daming Navy arrived at Batavia, off the coast of the headquarters of the Dutch East India Company.

However, Liu Hongjian was surprised that the Dutch in Batavia did not leave, but prepared to hold on.

There are three important seaports in Batavia, one for military use and two for civilian use, but all of them have forts, and since this is the headquarters of the East India Company, the number of artillery and the defense of the forts are solid.

So Liu Hongjian started to worry again. He first ordered Qi Laosan to lead a squadron to provoke, but the Dutch ignored them and only launched a fort attack.

The Dutch also seemed to be ready to hold on and wait for help, and they took the opportunity to block all three ports with iron chains and stones. Unless the navy gave up their advantage in battleships and forced a landing, it would be difficult to use ship-borne artillery to attack them. Wait for work with ease.

However, the forced landing will definitely be suppressed by the Dutch with strong firearms. You must know that there are at least [-] Dutch mercenaries in Batavia, and the condescending advantage is enough to cause heavy losses to the marine soldiers.

"My lord, Mr. Zheng caught a suspicious boat just now. The people on board said it was an envoy from the Kingdom of Wandan, and he asked to see you."
