The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

Chapter 277: The British did it?

The successive explosions caused the Dutch to suffer, and Yan Zhang stood on the bulwark on the right side of the center of the Dutch ship and yelled like a madman: "Lose me...Lose...Lose!"

The grenadier acted according to his command, and the Dutch were miserable. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Southeast Army under the leadership of Officer Hong Xi launched a new round of attacks to attack the bow of the Dutch ship.

Official Hong Xi led the charge, followed by a group of people. Three guards did not shoot or kill the enemy. They specially filled him with musket bullets. After all, the effect he brought to death was different from that of others.

He has a long sword and a high sword, and a short spear is deadly.

Compared with guns, Hong Xiguan prefers to use swords. He likes to use the sword to cut meat. His sword is specially made. The sword is thick and very sharp. It can chop the head. At this time, he is fighting with a Dutch soldier. It got stuck in the opponent's bones too hard, and the sword stuck into the opponent's bones. He stepped on the opponent with one foot and couldn't get it out. So someone sent him a knife, but it was the Dutch officer just now, officer Hong Xi. He took it without thinking, and swung his knife up.

Inhuman roars came from the bow, and the offensive was in full swing. Both sides were fighting desperately, forming a ball, shouting hoarsely one after another. The morale of the Southeast Army was like a rainbow. They stabbed the front with guns and shot them at the back. Entering like a wall, although the Dutch have generally higher personal combat skills, it is difficult to stop the opponent's thorns, not to mention the spears flying all over the air.

The Dutch (actually include the authentic Dutch, as well as Italians, British, Germans, Danes, Swedes, and Russians, etc., collectively called Hong Maofan, and some indigenous people with knives, but they Almost all of them are hiding behind), they are stomping on each other and retreating backwards and huddled together. The officers among them yelled in vain, trying to organize the team and reorganize the attack.

The problem is that they are very unlucky. Captain Herbert is busy, and as a result, something falls in front of him, and he subconsciously hugs it. He only feels it. When he fixes his eyes, it is a big bomb...Boom!

Hong Xiguan rushed forward, and finally put down a Hong Maofan who was one head taller than him, and dashed forward three steps, only to find that the weapons in the hands of those Hong Maofans were hanging down, seeming to have lost fighting spirit, or panic, or The expression was indifferent. Among them, a scorched and unhuman figure fell into a pool of blood, and there was no movement. The red hair fans all looked at that guy.

Song, the Chinese shipowner who can speak Dutch, didn't know where he came from, and said to Hong Maofan in Dutch: "Your captain is dead, surrender, we are civilized, and promise not to kill you!"

This guy is a talent. It was replayed in English, Italian, English, German and aboriginal languages. Those crew members gave in. Someone who looked like a senior officer took the sword beside the captain and gave it to Officer Hong Xi. Hands.

The owner Song asked: "What kind of cargo are you shipping?"

The officer whispered: "Silver dollar!"

"what?!"

...

Five minutes later, Hong Xiguan looked at the box opened in front of him in the bottom cabin of the "Dutch Province". The Spanish silver dollar inside was shining charmingly under the light of the torch.

Those are the cute little things in the world, and only their brothers-gold coins are more cute than them.

"Thirty-six thousand silver dollars, the spice money given to Manila by the Dutch East India Company!" Ship owner Song licked his lips.

"Awesome!" said Hong Xiguan: "Immediately organize a team to move the silver dollar over Kaohsiung No. 8!"

With great enthusiasm, the Southeast Army, with the help of some volunteer crew members of the "Holland Province", quickly passed the silver box and carried it to the bottom cabin of Kaohsiung 8.

They lined up to do a lot of work, and quickly emptied the silver box, and then the "Dutch Province" crew was generally escorted to the gun deck, while the senior crew were left on the open deck.

After the deck was emptied, the dead and wounded crew members were revealed. There was a casualty in the middle of the ship, more bows, and blood stains everywhere on the deck, exuding terrible blood.

The dead bodies were all wrapped up, heavy objects were thrown into the sea, and nearly 200 corpses were disposed of. This battle killed and injured more than 200 crew members, and the Kaohsiung 8 also had 50 casualties, but Only a mere twelve people died. The reason is that strong firepower and effective protection are the decisive factors.

Officer Hong Xi checked the "Dutch Province". The condition of the ship was a bit miserable, but it was still able to sail. After some repairs, it could still sail.

He was groaning when someone told him that there was a trace of a boat to the north.

Official Hong Xi immediately raised his binoculars to observe, and found that the incoming ship was a three-masted splint ship, which was still far away, and what he saw in the mirror was a ship shape, and the details were indistinguishable.

After a little thought, he immediately ordered 28 senior crew members of the "Dutch Province" and the more fierce looking guys to be taken to the Kaohsiung 8 to take care of them, and then some of the "Dutch Province" crew were recruited. The ship was operated under the supervision of the officers and soldiers of Kaohsiung No. 8.

Still flying the British flag, the two ships Kaohsiung No. 8 and the "Holland Province" slanted to the southwest (towards the Strait of Malacca) until dark, then turned to the southeast, and continued on the east route (the eastern route is the China Annan and Guangdong Province) returned to China.

The prisoners were closely monitored, and it turned out that their worries were unnecessary. The prisoners were frustrated because the other party had a boat with them, and they never resisted.

The two ships rushed all the way, day and night, so they were almost exhausted on the sea, and when they were about to return to Taiwan, they caught up with the large forces. They reported the situation and immediately caused a sensation in the fleet!

...

In Batavia Port, Governor Speke received a piece of bad news. A single-masted Dutch cargo ship called "Antila" reportedly suspected that the "Dutch Province" had been robbed by the British!

Governor Speke was taken aback. He knew that the "Holland Province" had sent valuable spices to Manila for trading. When he returned, he pulled silver dollars back. If he was robbed, he would suffer heavy losses and it would be difficult to explain to the (East India) Company.

He personally talked to the captain of the "Antila". The captain said that the "Dutch Province" had caught up with their ship for about half a day. When they arrived in the waters ahead, he found a ship under the British flag and "Holland". The "province" headed southwest together, but it was too far to see clearly. It seemed to be a British ship.

It was difficult to contact at sea. Governor Speke sent a ship to search, but he asked the Portuguese side in the Strait of Malacca, saying that he had not seen the British ship and the Dutch

However, it is difficult to say whether the two ships have crossed the strait.

Ask the British, and the British certainly deny it!

Without the payment of tens of thousands of silver dollars, Governor Speke thinks that the British and the Southeast are very suspicious. The British have the most doubts. In order to explain, he had to report to the country that it may have been done by the British. For maritime powers, whenever possible, it takes minutes for seafarers to change jobs to become pirates...

The Dutch East India Company can be described as a fleeting disadvantage. Mingren came to the door, and the Dutch side achieved little results. Although they did not lose in the face-to-face hard p, the other side was just a new combination for a few years!

The Mingren battleship rioted in Batavia. The largest battleship (actually an armed merchant ship) Poseidon was bombed, and another battleship was sunk. Unfortunately, "Ulisi Marsh" was hit by his own family. The gunpowder depot was detonated and sank, but the report cannot be written like this, it can only be said that it was sunk.

In addition, 53,000 silver dollars were robbed and the "Holland Province" was captured, and has not been seen so far! (Isn’t it said that 36,000 silver dollars was robbed? The report was 53,000 silver dollars. Everyone understands the truth.)

Governor Speke has been deliberate, and the British are proud to lie down with their guns. Blame the British!

It is the British, who sold battleships and artillery to the Southeast Mansion;

It is the British who gave important core shipbuilding technology to the Southeastern Government;

It's the British ~lightnovelpub.net~ and sent instructors to teach the southeast palace to fight!

They thoroughly armed the Mingren for the sugar business of millions of silver dollars, as well as the silk, porcelain, and tea business, all of which are doing exceptionally prosperous!

With their support, Mingren deliberately became an enemy of the Netherlands, causing the East India Company to encounter a major crisis!

The British also robbed the "Dutch Provincial Number", there is evidence!

A little guy in Southeast Mansion knocked the old Dutchman upside down? It was too embarrassing, so the British lay down their guns honorably!

He sent the report to the Netherlands, and to a certain extent, it detonated the first great battle between the Netherlands and the United Kingdom in advance!
