The Sun Never Sets Great China

Teams of Dutch prisoners were transferred to warships of the Imperial Chinese Navy, and the Dutch ships captured from the Dutch left only the necessary sailors.At this time, there were countless corpses floating on the surface of the sea, and some soldiers who fell into the water were still alive. They were struggling desperately in the water. A staff officer beside Shi Lang suggested to Ma Shouying: "My lord, do you want to rescue them?"

Shi Lang smiled and said: "These blond-haired and blue-eyed foreigners used to kill people like hemp, but now we can't do the same as them and send Liu Guoxuan's fleet to rescue people. Let's go immediately, we can't waste time, we still have important things to do manage?"

The staff officer suddenly realized: "My lord, you mean the mountain city occupied by the Dutch in Malacca." Shi Lang nodded and said, "Yes, the Dutch are not weak. Although the Dutch mountain city blocked the Portuguese attack for more than ten days, but Now their mountain city must be empty, and there are more than 2000 Portuguese troops there, if they don’t take this opportunity to capture the Dutch mountain city and control it, they may be in trouble in the future.”

"Then Raphael is already our chairman, does he still dare to repent?" The staff officer couldn't help snorting.He swept the Dutch soldiers in the water and continued to persuade Shi Lang: "My lord, Liu Guoxuan's fleet is still behind. I'm afraid that some of them will drown when they come to rescue these Dutchmen. Why don't we leave a few here now?" A boat to save them is a human life after all.”

Shi Lang was very puzzled by the sudden kindness of his staff officer, and nodded considering that leaving a few ships would not affect the plan.

The staff officer saw that the commander-in-chief had doubts about his persistence, so he said to himself: "I heard that a middle-aged man in the north can sell for hundreds of silver coins. These barbarians are tall, strong and powerful, and the price must be good."

Only then did Shi Lang know what his staff officer was up to, so he couldn't help but glared at him. However, after hearing what he said, Shi Lang would not object. Part of the captured property will be returned as a reward. The more captured, the more rewards will be given. If one thousand people can be saved, it will be worth [-] silver coins. Part of this money will also flow into his pocket. It is still a legitimate income. Why not.

Shi Lang patted the staff officer on the shoulder, laughed loudly and said, "What a boy, he has a future." The staff officer said, "I learned this from Major Wei Xiaobao! He sold a lot of strong Dutchmen!" Hearing him Then, Shi Lang used the binoculars to look at the battered Little Treasure in the distance, "This kid has made great achievements, and his ship has also been severely damaged. Wait, this guy has complicated components. I don't know if he will He has been working in our general fleet for a long time, if he can be kept, an ironclad ship can be given to him as the flagship, and he can be competent as a squadron captain." Shi Lang sighed.

After receiving Shi Lang's order, the naval fighters on the main fleet no longer sat by and watched these Dutchmen who fell into the water drown. Each ship threw wooden barrels and other buoyant objects one after another, letting people in the water catch them and wait for rescue.

In order not to delay time, after Shi Lang left ten ships as salvage ships, the rest of the ships continued to march towards Malacca in a mighty manner, and the Fifth Fleet and the Seventh Fleet also began to close together and continue to advance behind the main fleet. , The Imperial Chinese Navy fleet set off at around [-] o'clock in the daytime, and after sailing for about three hours, it began to fight with the Dutch navy. The time of the battle and the cleaning of the battlefield took about six hours. , It will be dark in three hours, and it is more than enough to arrive at the Dutch mountain city before dark.

As for the dozen or so Dutch fleets that escaped, you don’t have to worry about the Junjie and the Guardian. With the strength of the two iron-clad warships, they are enough to deal with the dozen or so ships that slipped through the net in a hurry to escape. Staying here is no longer within Shi Lang's considerations. This battle can change the entire military structure in Nanyang, and the strength of the Chinese Navy will deter all barbarians.

The fleet traveled for about twenty miles, and found some broken wood and colorful corpses floating in the sea. Everyone knew that there might be a naval battle not far ahead, but there was no sound of gunfire. , it seems that the naval battle is over.Sure enough, after traveling another three or four miles, they saw several scrapped ships in the sea. One ship was still on fire, but most of the other two sank, with only tall masts standing on the sea.

There were also people who fell into the water alive on the three ships. Seeing that there were living people there, Shi Lang remembered what the staff officer said, that a person is worth one hundred silver coins. Without the enemy of the Netherlands, Shi Lang could boldly leave them behind without worrying about the safety of the two ships.

After traveling for more than 20 miles, the fleet found several Dutch warships on fire. Obviously, there must have been another battle here. Everyone can almost imagine the embarrassment of the Dutch. After chasing after them, the Dutch couldn't beat them again and again, and they had to prepare other people's troops to come up at any time, and their escape speed was too slow, so they had to use the gecko to break their tails to escape.

Shi Lang didn't even think about it, and left two warships to salvage the people who were still alive. After a few miles, there was another ship ahead. However, although this ship had a few big holes, it could still sail. A large fleet of the empire came up, and the white flag was quickly raised on the ship.

Until the main fleet sailed near Malacca, no sunken ships were found. Surprisingly, the two ironclad ships also disappeared. There is only one explanation. After leaving the Strait of Malacca, the Junjie and the Guardian were still biting each other.

The two iron-clad ships have enough food, fresh water and fuel to sail for more than half a month. As long as they don't chase them to India, probably no one has the strength to pose a threat to the two iron-clad ships. Lieutenant General Hao Junjie on board is also experienced in naval battles The old generals are gone, Shi Lang doesn't need to worry about their safety.

The huge three and a half mixed fleets of the Chinese Navy began to go to the Dutch mountain city. In this war, the Chinese Empire only lost one small ship. It was knocked over by the fleeing Dutch warship when the two sides were entangled. , although the warships of the Netherlands are all made of wood, they cannot stand up to their large tonnage. Several battleships in the Netherlands have reached more than 100 tons, while the small ships of the Chinese Empire are only more than [-] tons. When they were hit by others, they completely turned over.

However, the Dutch battleship that hit him was not much better. The small ships of the Chinese Empire were also equipped with iron horns in front. This collision made a big hole in the Dutch battleship. How could the sea water block it? It couldn't be blocked, and finally followed in the footsteps of the small ship of the Chinese Empire, sank into the water, and blocked the way of the Dutch warship that was about to escape.

In addition to the two ironclad ships, the naval fleet of the Chinese Empire is minus the ships left behind to salvage the captives. If the captured more than 20 Dutch warships are added, the fleet of the Chinese Imperial Navy at this time is more than ten more than when it set off in the morning. The appearance of such a huge fleet of warships outside the Dutch mountain city immediately caused panic in the city.

In the morning, the main force of the Dutch left suddenly, and the Portuguese knew that the Chinese Empire must have come according to the agreement. They thought that the two sides would come down to the Dutch mountain city for a fierce battle, so that the Portuguese army might help. I was willing to use this place as a battlefield, but went forward instead.

Now the Portuguese, especially Rafael, can't help worrying about gains and losses. If the army sent by Zhang Huahan wins, it's okay to say, but if the Dutch win, it's really a big deal. One can go back. What they fear most is that the two sides will be at loggerheads. After several months of fierce fighting, the Portuguese will suffer even more. They have no money and food supplies to support them, and they cannot take down the mountain city. Now the Johor army is watching from a distance. The position of the Portuguese, if these Portuguese fall into the hands of the Johoreans, according to the grievances and grievances accumulated by the two sides for a hundred years, I am afraid that no Portuguese will survive.

Therefore, Raphael did not relax because the Dutch left. When he heard a huge fleet coming up the strait, he was taken aback, thinking that the Dutch had gone and returned. On the wall of the hillside, he looked up and found that the ships on the sea were not covered with the Dutch tricolor flag, and the number of ships was several times that of the Dutch ships. He was relieved and knew that it was The warships of the Chinese Empire are coming.

Mara stroked his beard that covered half of his face, his eyes were bloodshot, and immediately rushed up after seeing Raphael, and hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, it has been confirmed that it is the fleet of the Chinese Empire. "

Raphael was a little strange. He said, "What about the Dutchman?" Mara knew where the Dutchman had gone, so he shook his head and said, "I don't know."

In the morning, the seaside was still a huge Dutch fleet, and at night it turned into an even bigger fleet of the Chinese Empire. Raphael never believed that the huge Dutch fleet would be wiped out in just one day. If he saw the Chinese Empire When the Imperial Navy only used two ships to chase more than a dozen Dutch ships, he was afraid that his eyeballs would fall out, and he immediately gave up his Portuguese nationality and went to Zhang Huahan for real.

"Your Excellency, do you want to cooperate with them in attacking the city?" "Oh, of course, you and I will meet the Chinese Empire's army in person, and we are going to attack the city overnight." Rafael looked forward to this day as long as he was looking forward to the stars and the moon, and he said immediately .

Raphael was in front, and Colonel Marat followed closely behind. He only walked a few steps. Colonel Marat felt dizzy for a while, and he fell down as soon as his legs gave up. He caught Mara's body so that he didn't fall to the ground.

Over the past few days, the Dutch have been attacking the Portuguese army's position non-stop. The position is no better than a castle. Although it has a geographical advantage, it is not a strong castle after all. Mara, who has been commanding the battle with tense nerves for a long time, has not had a good rest every day. Today After the Dutch withdrew, because they had no confidence in the Chinese Empire's defeat of the Dutch, Mara did not dare to rest for a moment, and seized all the time to command the people to repair the wall and dig the trench deep.It can be said that his physical load has already reached its limit, and now that the danger is lifted, he no longer has the ability to support it.

When Raphael saw Mara fell down, he was taken aback, took back his steps down the slope, and hurried to Mara's side.Asked: "What's the matter?"

Hearing the snoring sound from Colonel Marat's nose, Raphael suddenly realized, and he immediately ordered: "Pick the colonel down and let him have a good rest."

Raphael took a hundred Portuguese soldiers to meet the Chinese Empire's landing army. After seeing Commander-in-Chief Shi Lang, Rafael bowed and said, "Dear Commander-in-Chief, I am Rafael, Governor-General of Portugal. Command, I will do my best to serve you." "Rafael, is your surname La?" Shi Lang's face was indescribably strange.

Although there are hundreds of Europeans serving in the fleet of the Chinese Empire, most of them are under the management of some lower-level officers. Although Shi Lang, the commander-in-chief of the navy, knows some things about Europe, he has never dealt with these Europeans directly. People's names are very different from those of Han people.

The translator didn't know how to explain this sentence to Raphael. Just as he was about to explain, Shi Lang said again: "The surname is La, so the surname is La. This surname was given by your parents, so we can't blame you."

The translator hurriedly shut up, Raphael was at a loss, Shi Lang said to Raphael, "You are the former governor of Malacca, you are considered a landlord, do you know how many troops the Dutch still have in the city?"

After hearing what the translator said, Raphael nodded quickly and said: "Of course I know, of course I know, Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, there are still less than 1000 Dutch people in the city, and our cannons are out of shells. The Dutch mountain city has been taken down."

What happened next surprised Rafael and the others. They saw a large number of Dutch captives being released from ships. Seeing this situation, all the Portuguese were stunned. Rafael was careful. Asked: "Master Governor, what are these?"

Shi Lang said: "Oh. These are our captives." "So the Dutch fleet was defeated." This is the greatest news that Raphael has heard.

Hearing his words, Shi Lang responded proudly: "Of course, it's a pity, la... la..." This surname is too weird, Shi Lang always feels awkward, and people can't remember what it is.

"Raphael." Seeing that his chief officer had forgotten the other party's name, the staff around Shi Lang quickly reminded him. "Yes, Governor Rafael, today our fleet fought a battle with the Dutch fleet in the Strait of Malacca. Less than one-tenth of the Dutch fleet escaped, and the rest of the fleet was wiped out by our army. Starting today , you don’t have to worry about the Dutch sea fleet anymore.”

Hearing that this powerful opponent just disappeared, some Portuguese were somewhat dissatisfied with Raphael's previous decision. It is the army of a European maritime power, but now that the Dutch have been defeated, everyone admires Raphael's wisdom. With the alliance of this powerful country, Portugal may be even more brilliant than before in Asia.

Raphael was awed in his heart. The loss of more than 400% to [-]% of the troops in the naval battle was almost considered a failure. Unexpectedly, the fleet of the Chinese Empire was completely wiped out against the Dutch fleet. Raphael's combat effectiveness against the Dutch fleet Of course, he would not think that the fleet of the Chinese Empire would be able to wipe out such a fleet with the loss of only one warship. Seeing more than [-] warships of the Imperial Chinese Navy densely packed, he doubted how much strength the Chinese Imperial Navy had dispatched. How big will the real strength be?

Raphael has even more scruples in his heart. He wants to have both sides, but can such a powerful empire allow him to please both sides? When Zhang Huahan gets angry, it doesn't matter if he is dissatisfied with Portugal. If he is dissatisfied with himself, he can It's over, people still have their own reasons in their hands, do they really want to abandon Portugal and go to Zhang Huahan?He was deeply troubled.

More than 400 warships of the Chinese Empire opened up six or seven thousand black cannons and began to bombard them. Countless shells blew up many cracks in the Dutch mountain city. The Dutch prisoners of war under the city shouted to persuade them to surrender. It was Wei Xiaobao's idea to set up soldiers. Although he didn't read too many ancient books, he knew a little about the plots of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The soldiers of the Imperial Chinese Navy formed a formation under the city. Seeing that the other side had not opened the door to surrender, Shi Lang down below was already impatient, Wei Xiaobao was already cursing anxiously, and the Dutch were bombarded by heavy artillery fire on the top of the city. Many Dutch soldiers were hit by shells, and their limbs and arms were flying around. Most of the cannons on the city were shot by countless shells from warships, and several powder boxes were also shot by dense shells. There was a violent explosion, and more than 400 Dutch soldiers were killed and injured by intensive artillery fire.The governor of Malacca had fled with the fleet a long time ago, and a major, the highest Dutch officer here, ordered: "Open the city gate! We surrender!"

The white flag was raised, and the gate of the Dutch mountain city squeaked. The gate that could not be taken by more than 5000 Portuguese soldiers was finally easily opened to the army of the Chinese Empire that had just arrived. The Chinese Imperial Navy soldiers ahead Immediately, they rushed in, almost dispersing the Portuguese army, and Raphael, who was in the front row of the Portuguese army, also rushed aside.

Raphael's face was full of smiles, and he immediately ordered the Portuguese not to enter the city, allowing the soldiers of the Emperor of China to take over the various defensive routes in the city, and the Dutch in the city surrendered one after another, becoming the emperor of China. The captives of the ** team.

There are less than 5000 Dutch soldiers left in the city, and the army of the Chinese Empire that entered the city has reached 5000, and there is no room for [-] Portuguese to continue entering the city. Seeing that his former territory has passed from the hands of the Dutch to the hands of the Chinese Empire, I still feel a little uncomfortable. This is the fruit that consumed the lives of more than [-] Portuguese soldiers. Rafael can only let the Portuguese soldiers Go back to the position to rest first.
