The Most Powerful Man in the World

"I said where are these Xiyi people hiding? I never thought they would gather in this port."

Lin Pingzhi couldn't help but muttered.

Compared with Lin Pingzhi, Jiao Yuan and Yue Buqun were naturally a little more calm, Yue Buqun put down the telescopic mirror and said to Yu Dayou: "General Yu, look at this situation, the other party wants to be with us. Here's a fight."

The corners of Yu Dayou's mouth twitched slightly, and a ferocious look flashed across, only to hear Yu Dayou say: "Since they want to court death, then this general will fulfill them."

Lin Pingzhi said: "That's right, we took care of them early, so we can mobilize people to find the whereabouts of His Royal Highness King Wu."

They sailed all the way, every time they encountered a port, they would send someone to enter the port, and then hand over Chu Yi's drawing and shadow graphics to the natives, and mobilize these people to find Chu Yi's whereabouts.

This kind of effect is like looking for a needle in a haystack. It can be said to be the most clumsy way to find people, but for them, that's all they can think of. For this reason, they did not hesitate to destroy a country that would not cooperate.

The desolate horn of woo woo sounded, and soon the flag was hoisted.

The subsequent fleets observed the flag hoisted above the flagship, and all the ships immediately moved.Before a cup of tea, the soldiers who had already integrated the ability to control the ship into their bones quickly completed the formation.

Hundreds of fleets rushed towards the port. The momentum was really amazing, but it was just a cup of tea, and even the outline of the ship could be seen with the naked eye.

In the port, Archduke Doros frowned when he saw several coalition generals who were arguing there, put the coffee on the table, and said solemnly: "If you continue to argue, I'm afraid Mingren's fleet has already disappeared. Into the port."

Several coalition generals closed their mouths immediately, and then heard the Duke Doros say: "Don't say anything, the most important thing right now is to fight against the Ming army, what is the significance of this battle, even if I don't say I want to come to your hearts? all know."

Almost all the overseas powers of several countries have gathered here. If it is said that they won this time, it would be fine, but once they are defeated, the overseas military power of several countries will plummet. The port, I am afraid that it will be lost.

As Doros made up his mind, the several coalition generals who had been arguing finally put down the quarrel, and soon the military order was passed on through the command flag.

A number of ships sailed out of the port, and then formed an array to meet the Ming fleet outside the port.

The two sides are several miles apart, and the outline of the hull can be seen without the aid of a telescopic mirror, and even the people on the boat can vaguely see a figure.

On the flagship, Yu Dayou, who has been paying attention to the movement in the port, saw the ships sailing out of the port, and his eyes could not help flashing a fierce color: "I think they have to stay in the port all the time and dare not Come out to fight, that's fine, destroy them in a battle, and show me the great power of the Ming Dynasty."

Yue Buqun stroked his beard and nodded slightly with a smile: "Your Majesty's decree came not long ago, and since that's the case, let's use these people to sacrifice the flag!"

The fleets of the two sides approached rapidly, and there was a sudden roar, and one of the fleets on the opposite side was suddenly bombarded, followed by a burst of roars.

The two sides are still several miles apart, at least the artillery at the moment, there is no hope of hitting at all under the shelling of such a long distance.

Even if the range of Daming's new artillery far exceeded that of the Portuguese and Spanish fleets, it did not take the lead in firing the artillery. In fact, the firing at this distance was of no use at all except to hear the sound.

Obviously, the sound of gunfire just now was because some soldiers in the fleet were nervous and fired their guns involuntarily. As for other ships firing guns, they were influenced by the ship that fired the guns first.

"What a mob!"

If Doros and other high-ranking generals of the coalition army heard Yu Dayou commenting on them, I wonder if they would faint one by one.

However, Doros and the others who were in the port were also very angry at the moment, obviously they were angry with the shelling just now.

"Trash, it's really trash, and they fired at such a long distance, do they still have heads, can the kingdom spend so much gold and silver to raise such a group of trash?"

Archduke Doros was clearly pissed off.

Finally, the distance between the two sides indented to a certain extent. The flagship of the Ming Fleet raised the command flag. At the moment when the command flag was raised, all the ships around it were seen firing shells one by one. .

Just as the captains of the Portuguese ships said, the artillery of the Daming fleet is stronger than them in terms of range and rate of fire, especially the number of artillery mounted on each ship exceeds that of Portugal and Spain. other countries.

Boom, boom, boom

One after another water column rose into the sky, and the cannonballs flew horizontally, pouring down like a torrential rain.

But in a blink of an eye, several ships were injured, and even a slightly smaller ship ate two shells directly, the hull was smashed through, and the gurgling sea water was frantically pouring into the hull.

Even if it is only the advantage of a few waves of shelling, the feeling of being shelled but unable to fight back is really too aggrieved.

The Portuguese, Spanish, and Dutch coalition forces could only brave the artillery shells to approach the Daming fleet, otherwise, with the range of their cannons, if they wanted to hit the Daming ships, it would only be up to God.

There was a loud bang, and a ship exploded at once, and the gunpowder depot was directly detonated by the shell. It is conceivable that if a ship's gunpowder depot exploded, then a ship was blown up on the spot. 's fell apart.

Seeing this scene, Jiao Yuan couldn't help but exclaim: "Okay, very good. Give me a blast!"

Finally, at the cost of wounding more than a dozen ships and sinking two ships, the distance between the two sides has narrowed. At least the coalition forces don't have to watch but can't fight back, the kind that can only be beaten. But the taste of being unable to fight back is really unpleasant.

"Give me a hard bang!"

The artillery of the coalition army roared, and the shells flew out one by one, and the water column suddenly splashed on the sea surface.

It can be clearly seen that the number of artillery pieces carried by a single ship is almost double that of the Ming Dynasty, and if the difference in firing rate is added, if the coalition fleet can fire a hundred shells, then the Daming fleet will at least Three or four hundred can be fired.

Chapter 1 Invincible Fleet [[-] more]

Doros and other senior leaders of the coalition can clearly see the situation of the warships of the two sides outside the port through the telescope.

When the battleship of the Allied Forces finally approached the Daming Fleet, a heart that had been hanging all along could not help but let go.

However, at the moment Doros and the others were relieved, they saw a cloud of gunpowder smoke, and the firepower of the Daming fleet suddenly increased a little.

If the intensity of the artillery fire just now is already very amazing, then the intensity of the artillery fire displayed by Daming at this moment is simply beyond the expectations of Doros and others.

With a flick of his hand, the telescopic mirror in his hand was almost thrown out. Even so, Doros still couldn't help exclaiming: "How is this possible, Mingren's fleet can't have such dense artillery fire, they don't It might be possible to do that.”

For the navy, the degree of artillery fire and the strength of the ship means the strength of the navy's combat effectiveness. It can be said that as the interests of the sea are getting bigger and bigger, several countries are fighting openly and secretly to compete for overseas interests overseas, so the development of the navy is naturally very fast.

But even in this atmosphere, Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands and other major maritime powers have not been able to build a battleship with artillery secrets like Daming.

In Doros' view, even if Daming is stronger than them in naval construction, there should be a limit to how strong he is. As a result, when Daming is fully fired, the intensity of the fire displayed will be much greater. Ross was stunned.

Fortunately, Doros is not a waste. After the shock, he held the telescopic mirror in his trembling hands and stared at the sea outside the port.

Above the sea, water columns rose into the sky one after another, and the smoke of gunpowder filled the ships. There were also many ships that were shot and shattered in the exchange of fire.

The proportion of battle losses between the two sides made Doros unbelievable. He stared at the entire battlefield, only to find flames rising from a few Ming battleships, but above the sea, the battleships of their coalition forces were There are as many as a dozen ships.

"hateful……"

With a punch, Doros had a look of anger on his face. Even if he was inexperienced, just looking at the situation above the sea, Doros could judge that they lost this battle.

Doros took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Call, withdraw!"

Regarding Doros's order, even the generals of Spain and the Netherlands did not stand up against it. Everyone can see that if the battle continues, they will sink more and more battleships. If it can be withdrawn, at least some losses can be recovered.

Soon Doros' order was conveyed.

On the flagship of the coalition forces, the flag of retreat was launched. Although it was said that there was a mess on the sea surface, most of the ships of the coalition forces could still see the flag of retreat hanging on the port and the flagship.

The coalition fleet, which had been stunned by the tyrannical artillery fire displayed by the Daming fleet, had no intention of continuing to fight when they saw the flag of retreat, and retreated in a rush towards the port.

This retreat has changed the originally anxious scene. The coalition forces had an advantage in the number of fleets, and they were still able to resist it. If it were not for this, it would be impossible for the Daming side to have a few warships shot and caught fire. .

Yu Dayou was ready to pay a certain price to severely damage the coalition forces of several countries, but to his surprise, the coalition forces retreated voluntarily before showing their defeat.

"Hahaha, God helped me!"

Seeing the coalition forces retreating actively, Yu Dayou couldn't help laughing. In Yu Dayou's opinion, if these Western Barbarian coalition forces continued to die, they might not be defeated, but if they retreated, they would really be defeated.

Just as the coalition forces were retreating, Yu Dayou resolutely ordered to hunt down the coalition fleet.

On the Daming side, a group of soldiers excitedly drove the battleship to chase the coalition fleet, and the artillery fire covered it like a rain. Although it may not be possible to hit one of the ten shells, the firepower of the new Daming battleship could not be resisted.

During the quick pursuit, at least a dozen coalition ships were hit, some of which burst into flames, and some were blown out of terrifying holes by artillery shells and flooded with sea water.

"Fire, fire at me, and keep these Ming people out of the port!"

Doros's expression changed when he saw the situation outside the port, when even the artillery on the port was ordered to shoot at the sea.

The Port of Bué is not an important port. Although it is said that the port of Bué has been renovated to a certain extent after the coalition of several countries retreated to the port of Bué, the time is tight and the reconstruction is quite limited. Among the ports, there are only Just a dozen guns.

After all, not all artillery pieces can be erected in ports. Most of the dozen or so artillery pieces were dismantled from other ports. Otherwise, most ports would not even build forts.

The artillery fire rumbled, and the water splashed on the sea surface, and several Daming ships quickly set their sights on the artillery in the port.

Suddenly several ships slowed down, adjusted their hulls, and dozens of artillery pieces of several ships were aimed at the artillery in the port.

Suddenly, the artillery roared, and dozens of shells fell on the head. Even though the hit rate of the shells was not high, the dozens of shells fell, more or less fruitful.

At least two artillery pieces were blown into scrap metal on the spot, dozens of Xiyi artillerymen were killed on the spot, and a cloud of gunpowder smoke filled the port fort.

Before the pawns of the Western barbarians in the port reacted, they made certain adjustments according to the shooting situation of the first wave, and another wave of bullets fell on the head.

This time the hit rate was significantly improved. Amidst the screams, the original dozen artillery pieces turned into a sea of ​​fire, and bursts of artillery shells exploded. It was obvious that the shells stored on the fort were detonated by the shelling.

Seeing the dozens of artillery positions turned into a sea of ​​fire, Doros and the others looked very ugly, but they had no choice but to pray that the warships that fled back to the port could enter the port smoothly.

If you look down from the air, you will find that on the sea, hundreds of ships are crowding towards the port frantically, and some fleets even collide, and behind them are the continuous shelling of many warships .

The warships were shot into flames and sank. The short distance of a few miles was nothing but a cup of tea, but for these fleeing warships, it was the gap between heaven and hell.

A short and tragic naval battle started quickly and ended quickly, and it only lasted about an hour from the outbreak to the end.

After gathering the battleships and doing some statistics, the Ming Dynasty nearly sank five battleships, with more than [-] casualties and casualties. Compared with the losses of the coalition forces of several countries, this loss is really negligible.

In the port, Doros looked at the dozens of captains standing in front of him in embarrassment, but all the warships that escaped back to the port, their captains are all here.

Originally, there were hundreds of warships and more than [-] captains. How powerful, but now, one by one with their heads drooping, with a look of dejection, people can't lift their spirits at a glance.

Looking at the captain who was at least half missing, Doros felt that blood was dripping in his heart. He never dreamed that it was just a simple confrontation that would cause them to lose so many battleships.

A full fifty or sixty battleships sank, even if it was allocated to the Three Kingdoms, there were more than [-] more and a dozen less, which could already be regarded as a major defeat.

The battle at Port Bué completely discouraged the coalition forces of several countries. In the following days, facing the provocation of the Daming fleet, the coalition forces of several countries were stunned. There is no beginning.

If it weren't for the fact that the number of shells carried by the fleet was not large enough, Yu Dayou would definitely order the shelling of the port, so that these Xiyi people would never be able to leave the port.

However, Yu Dayou was not helpless, and directly ordered some ships to block the port, while some warships landed elsewhere with the army.

When Daming's soldiers rushed into the port from the side of the port like tigers in the dark, Archduke Doros, who was resting in a castle in the port, and several high-level officials of the coalition forces subconsciously thought it was a messenger. Military information.

It was only when the screams of the Ming soldiers came that the Duke Doros and others realized that the Ming people had really landed.

Even in the overnight raid, even if there were tens of thousands of soldiers in the Allied Western Barbarian Army, it is a pity that during these few days, the morale of the Ming Dynasty was high, and the Western Barbarian Allied Forces, who could only hide in the port as a tortoise, naturally There is no morale to speak of.

Tens of thousands of coalition soldiers were handed over their weapons like that, and they obediently followed Daming soldiers into the barracks and became Daming's prisoners.

Such a big movement in the port naturally alerted many ships parked in the port. The warships with police noticed that something was wrong, and even drove the warships out of the port.

A dozen warships rushed out together. Although it was said that the port had already been blocked, in the face of the impact of a dozen warships, the Daming fleet responsible for blocking it was naturally bombarded.

In the smoke of gunpowder, only two of the dozen or so warships finally escaped.

At this point, the port of Buai has completely fallen into the hands of Daming, including nearly twenty warships and tens of thousands of prisoners and soldiers who did not have time to escape.

In the castle, Yu Dayou looked at the embarrassed but extravagant Archduke Doros and more than a dozen high-ranking members of the coalition.

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Jiao Yuan, who was sitting beside him, glanced at Doros and the others and slowly unfolded a painting: "Everyone, have you seen this person before?"

This portrait is none other than Chu Yi's portrait.
