At the beginning of the civil castle, the Ming God of War was a little panicked

Chapter 530
"My lord, there is a fleet approaching!"

Taoglu said calmly, "Is Earl Leman back?"

Calculated according to the time, Lehman's fleet repelled the invading enemy, and it was almost time to return to Hong Kong.

"No...it's the Ming Fleet!"

"what?"

Taoglu frowned immediately, and said in a deep voice, "Daming Fleet, how is it possible?"

"My lord, it was discovered by the patrol ship we sent out. The opponent's ships are very large and there are many. Moreover, their flagships are very... different!"

"what's the difference?"

"Without masts and sails."

Taoglu was very puzzled, and asked: "Aren't you awake? There is no mast and sail. Tell me how it moves? Do you rely on magical oriental magic?"

"I don't know, but... there's really no mast, and, well, it's fast...

Duke Taoglu's face became gloomy. He didn't believe that there was witchcraft in this world. He had seen the ships of the Orientals before. Whether it was the technical level, the size of the hull, or the number, it was definitely Ottoman's fleet. outperformed.

Huge hull, no mast... Impossible, there is no such ship in this world!
"The information is wrong, go investigate again!"

"My lord, the opponent's fleet is extremely fast and is already approaching the port."

Taoglu's eyes are slightly closed, he can't figure out the situation at all now, if his side is dazzled, and the description of the enemy ship is wrong, maybe it may be too far away, and he didn't see it clearly, but the distance is You can't go wrong.

You know, Earl Lehman has fifty ships in his hands, and his strength should not be underestimated.

If it was really Ming's fleet that came to fight, there is only one possibility, this fleet came from the mainland of Daming.

It seems that things are far more serious than I imagined.

"Send the order, everyone, prepare to fight!"

"Yes!"

The herald left in a hurry, while Taoglu put on his military uniform, pinned the medal of highest honor on his chest, and walked out of the room.

Several major generals have received orders and are gathering troops, and the entire port is busy.

Immediately afterwards, the rapid bell rang, and everyone stopped their work and looked at Duke Taoglu in military uniform.

"My fellow warriors of Ottoman, the time has come for the decisive battle!"

Taoglu stood on a high platform and said loudly: "Da Ming's fleet has arrived, but they made a mistake, a huge mistake!"

"That's their ignorance and arrogance. They don't even know that any force is vulnerable to the invincible Ottoman navy!"

"These Easterners don't know what is about to happen, so let us tell them. Next, the brave and fearless Ottoman navy will defeat them head-on!"

"Notice to all soldiers, prepare for battle, prepare muskets and cannons, board our warships, and welcome new victories!"

"In God's name, Easterners will regret coming here!"

Taoglu's order was very decisive, and he was confident that he would win the battle and let the Ming army from the east die under the sea.

The order was passed on and the Ottoman navy began to board the ships.

They yelled hard, tugged at the sail, and pulled up the anchor.

Amidst the sound of huge waves, the Ottoman fleet presented a perfect formation and sailed towards the Ming army's fleet.

As the sun set in the west, the sea surface illuminated by the afterglow showed a deep red.

On the flagship King Mohad, Taoglu saw the opponent's ship clearly through the binoculars.

What puzzled him was that the opponent's ship seemed to have no mast!
Moreover, the sheer number of them makes one's scalp tingle.

Looking from a distance, the field of vision is almost full, at least there are more than a hundred ships.

But so what?
He still believed that the ships of the Ming army were nothing more than that, no matter how many there were, they were just living targets at sea.

"Full speed ahead, ready to fight!"

Behind him is all the power of the Ottoman Navy, with more than [-] ships.

The gun muzzle on the ship has been raised, and the black hole of the gun barrel sticks out.

The sails on the King Harder rattled, and the sailor manipulated the turntable familiarly, and the other party approached.

As the pilot of the flagship, he needs to find the best angle to expose the opponent's hull to his artillery, and then...destroy them!
Behind the flagship, the ships on the two wings have tacitly started to circle around, ready to intercept.

Yes, they even calculated each other's escape route.

Like a pack of hungry wolves hunting their prey, they cooperated with each other, ready to bite each other's throat.

The afterglow of the setting sun has completely turned red, like fresh blood.

close!

There was a smile on the corner of Taoglu's mouth, so what about the large number, what about the big size, isn't it...

and many more!

The smile on his face gradually became stiff, because through the binoculars, he saw the other party's hull, which seemed to reflect a metallic light.

what's the situation?
Thinking he was dazzled, Taoglu rubbed his eyes and picked up the binoculars again.

The distance between the two sides got closer, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the opponent's hull, reflecting the metal light, which was clearly seen this time.

armor?

Taoglu looked at the tall ironclad ship in his field of vision in astonishment, billowing thick smoke, and sailing towards him.

At that moment, he was a little skeptical.

Could it be that he just got angry?

No, I didn't sleep just now!
When he doubted his life, the huge iron armor had revealed its hideous face.

The ship's body is full of black muzzles, like monsters from the abyss, slowly opening their minions.

Taoglu finally realized why the herald would say such things.

Are Orientals devils from hell?
Although he didn't know why the enemy ship was covered in iron armor, and he didn't know why it was emitting black smoke, but he knew that he had no way out.

Up to now, no matter what kind of monsters they face, they can only give it a go.

"soldiers!"

Taoglu calmed down and began to launch the final speech: "God is watching over us, no matter whether the opponent is a man or a devil, the Ottoman navy is invincible, listen to my orders, and the artillery is ready..."

Boom!

Before his speech was over, there was already a deep roar on the sea.

Boom!

Boom!

Countless cannons sounded, and Taoglu hurriedly picked up the binoculars, and then saw flames emanating from the opponent's ship.

At this moment, there is only one thought in his mind.

Why didn't the artillery of the Ming army fire from the front instead of turning sideways?
The cannonball drew a beautiful arc from the sky and landed directly on the deck of the King Harder.

Boom!

The huge explosion lifted the entire deck, and the flames shot up into the sky, sawdust splashed everywhere, and everyone wailed.

Before Taoglu could even figure out the situation, he had already been blown away by the shock wave of the explosion.

The people on board were crazy. They only knew that the cannonball was a solid iron lump, so how could it explode?

Subsequently, more explosive shells struck and fell in the Ottoman fleet.

Boom!

Boom!

Amidst bursts of explosions, countless ships began to sink.

The soldiers on board suffered countless casualties, or jumped ship to escape. Although they knew very well that there was almost no possibility of surviving in the vast ocean, it was better than being bombed to death...

Under constant artillery fire suppression, the fleet of the Ming army was approaching, but it showed no sign of slowing down, and instead slammed into it head-on.

The battle is almost a replica of the morning, exactly the same.

The iron-clad ship rampaged in an extremely rough way, cutting off the enemy ships one after another.

In the cabin, Zhu Qizhen drank tea quietly, waiting for the result of the battle.

"emperor!"

Yuan Bin came in to report: "Over [-] enemy ships have been wiped out in this battle. There are a large number of Ottomans in the sea asking for help. Do you want to help?"

"Save what? Save it and feed it to the sharks!"

"Yes!"

Yuan Bin agreed, and then asked, "Where are you going next? Are you going back to Ceylon Island to rest?"

"unnecessary!"

Zhu Qizhen picked up his teacup and drank it down in one gulp, then said: "Go ashore!"

"However, the situation on the shore is unknown, and I am worried..."

"Don't worry, order the [-] Battalion to prepare to land and fight. Humans will block and kill people, and Buddhas will block and kill Buddhas!"

Yuan Bin saluted again: "Observe the order!"

The fleet headed north in a mighty manner, and the road has been unimpeded.

When Taoglu went to sea, he took all the warships, and even all the sea power of the entire Ottoman Empire.

After this battle, there was no Ottoman navy in the world.

The left-behind Ottomans are still waiting for the news of victory, but the nightmare has come.

The Ming Fleet bombed indiscriminately, completely destroying the port's defenses, and then slowly docked.

The [-] Battalion had been waiting for too long, and they came out like a tiger, destroying them all the way.

The Shenji Battalion continued to use artillery to suppress the opponent's vital force, providing long-range cover for the [-] Battalion.

The battle lasted only an hour, mainly because it was dark, the road was invisible, the place was unfamiliar, and the chase did not know where to chase, so I had to go back to the port to rest.

Early the next morning, the [-] Battalion continued to attack, searching for the remaining Ottomans everywhere.

The order they got was not to keep alive, not to accept surrender, just to kill, not to be buried.

Two days later, a ship from Ceylon docked slowly.

Fan Mingchen, Zhang Mao, Peng Qing, and Tang Xinggu stepped off the boat, and seeing the surrounding scene, they couldn't help sighing.

The fortifications were all destroyed, almost in ruins.

As far as I could see, I couldn't see a single Ottoman, and I thought they were all gone.

"Chen Fan Mingchen kowtows to see my emperor, long live!"

"Minister Zhang Mao kowtows to see my emperor, long live!"

"My minister, Peng Qing, kowtows to my emperor, long live!"

"Chen Tang Xinggu kowtows to see my emperor, long live!"

The four people came forward to worship, Zhu Qizhen raised his hand: "Your family, you are welcome!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhu Qizhen looked at Fan Mingchen and asked, "How is Duke Liang?"

"Back to the emperor, my father has woken up and is currently recuperating."

Zhu Qizhen nodded and said: "It's good that it's okay, the tiger father has no dogs and sons, and the Qing family's father and son are all good!"

Fan Mingchen hurriedly saluted: "The father and son have owed the divine favor and almost lost Ceylon. Please punish the emperor!"

"What is the punishment? The deployment of Ceylon Island is decided by me. Do I have to issue a crime against myself?"

"The emperor's words are serious, the minister didn't mean that..."

Fan Mingchen was a little apprehensive, it was the first time he had spoken to the emperor face to face, and he had no idea what to do, seeing that he had offended the emperor, he didn't know what to do.

Zhu Qizhen didn't want to entangle with him any longer, and said, "What country was this place called before?"

Tang Xinggu took it over and said, "Go back to the emperor, it's the country of Tike."

"Tek Nation? What's the name?"

"That's why the king of this place is named Tick. This place is still uncivilized. Although it is called a country, it is at best a tribal alliance."

Zhu Qizhen nodded, and continued: "Is there anyone in that Tik family?"

"According to the information we have, after the Ottomans landed, they killed the Tick family. It should be that there are no descendants."

"nobody……"

Zhu Qizhen pondered for a while, and said: "I will do what I can, and help them manage this land!"

Tang Xinggu smiled awkwardly, and said: "Under the whole world, is it the king's land? On the shore of the land, is it the king's minister. If King Tike knew that the emperor personally avenged him, he would definitely give this land with both hands , to thank the emperor."

"I think so too!"

Zhu Qizhen smiled knowingly, and continued: "This place is temporarily under the jurisdiction of the Ceylon Metropolis. As for how it will develop in the future, it will be handed over to the Qing family."

Tang Xinggu was overjoyed and said: "I will definitely live up to the grace of the Holy Spirit!"

The scope of the Ceylon Dusi is larger, and the power of commanding colleagues is also greater. Moreover, this place is isolated overseas, far away from the mainland of Ming Dynasty. In other words, being an official here is no different from the Tu Emperor.

Fan Zhong only cares about military affairs, not civil affairs. Most importantly, he does not reject himself, and even asks for advice when encountering problems. How can there be such a good thing in the world?
Zhu Qizhen looked at Peng Qing again, and asked: "The Qing family is suffering!"

Peng Qing was very moved, and said: "This minister has caused trouble to the emperor."

This battle was all caused by himself, and Liang Guogong almost took his life, so that he felt deeply guilty.

"The Ottomans are wolfish and ambitious. They even dare to snatch my fleet. The Qing family can rest assured that I will lead my troops to fight there to avenge the Qing family!"

Peng Qing looked surprised, and said: "Your Majesty, don't be reckless!"

"If I don't let him destroy it, how can I save my face?"

"But……"

Peng Qing was a little anxious, the emperor didn't seem to come to rescue, but was preparing to launch a national war.

It would be fine if there were some small border countries, but Ottoman is not small!
This country comes from a branch of the Turks, and through continuous migration, it came to the Persian Gulf.

After King Muhammad succeeded to the throne, he personally led an army of [-] to conquer the Eastern Roman Empire in one fell swoop. From then on, the Ottoman Empire was established and its capital was Constantinople. The sea area is extremely powerful.

Although the Ottoman navy was wiped out, their combat effectiveness on land should not be underestimated.

The Ming Fleet came from thousands of miles away, and they had to land and fight.

"The Ottomans have already paid the price. This enmity should not be too deep. I ask the emperor to think twice!"

"Does the Qing family think the Ottomans will let it go?"

Peng Qing frowned tightly and didn't answer.

Zhu Qizhen put away the smile on his face, and said: "I pass on my will, three days later, I will go to Osman!"
