"It's the army of the Ming Dynasty!" Joseph picked up the monocular lens and opened it and found that these people looked the same as those of the Ming Dynasty, but their clothes were a little strange.

"The Ming people surrounded us! Damn it! Really damn it!" Claire yelled in anger. He called himself a military genius, but he didn't expect that he was surrounded by the Ming army and he didn't know at all. They came out and knew who they were. Isn't this a fucking blow to his face again?

"Prepare to fight!" Claire was not afraid of the Ming army, but instead wanted to try. He had not fought with the Ming army yet. However, according to his impression of the Ming information, the overall strength of the Ming Dynasty was strong, but the strength of the single one was weak.

Otherwise, how could the former governor have formulated a plan to conquer the Ming Dynasty for 5,000 people? It was just that it was not realized due to various reasons later, which reflected the cowardice of the Ming army.

So Claire was eager to try and was about to take his army out to start a film with the Ming army, but was stopped by Old Joseph.

Life experience tells Joseph that the Ming army is not that simple. When they look at their march, you will know that the person on the other side is a high-quality professional army. The three rows of rows move neatly and move forward in unison. At first glance, they are the kind of person who has been strictly trained.

Moreover, Old Joseph also discovered that this army was a full firearm. Anyway, he found out from the telescope that each of the Ming army was holding a musket in his hand.

Before he figured out the strength of this Ming army, Joseph did not want to leave the solid castle. The Ming army opposite was at least three times that of himself. Facing an unknown three times that of the enemy, whoever wants to go out is really a problem.

But if they don’t fight, it doesn’t mean that the Ming army will not take action. Zhang Goudan aimed at their warships at first sight. Since the dock here has not been built and put into use, they could only anchor the warships to moor a hundred meters away from the coast.

A sailor stood by the boat smoking tobacco leaves. He was the guardian in charge of looking out. Although he felt that the current situation was a waste of warning, he still faithfully carried out the order.

Although he was not attentive and did not even climb up the mast to look at the place, the few small dots that suddenly appeared on the sea level still told an unknown warship that appeared.

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!" A sudden sound of ringing the bell rang out. Ten Spanish warships immediately began to pull up the anchor chains, and then raised sails to prepare for battle. Otherwise, they had already mastered the naval battle skillfully. Looking at their speed, they could make the Ming navy feel ashamed. In just ten minutes, they completed the battle preparations, raised the sails and the warship began to move.

To be honest, if the current Ming Navy came to do this for at least half an hour.

However, the artillery distance is still too close. From the discovery of the Ming warship to the launch of the Spanish warship, the Ming warship has not reached the position of firing attack.

However, their distance was not far away. Twenty warships in the Ming Dynasty lined up in a row and began to seize the t-head. Zhu Youxiao clearly remembered that the naval battle during the cannon period was a war to seize the t-head. Who said this? Zhu Youxiao didn't remember it, but it was true.

This is the benefit of a sudden attack. Even if you react, the enemy on the opposite side will complete the word "snatch" from him.

"The despicable Ming people! They actually launched an attack on our warships! There was no chivalrous spirit at all! They were really a despicable race!" Claire and the others also discovered the strangeness on the beach now, and their warships were raided by the Ming people.

However, he was not so worried, because the ten warships he brought were the latest models, and their combat power was not comparable to those of the Ming Dynasty. He had seen the coming ships of the Ming Dynasty in Nanyang, and they were simply not as good as his own warships.

Even the scene of his warship easily sinking the Ming army warship in his mind.

"Mr. Joseph, how long do you think our warships can destroy the Ming Dynasty warships?"

"Or we'll make a bet, and I'll bet two hours to solve them, no! One and a half hours, and the rest is giving them half an hour to sink the ship." Claire said very relaxedly.

He felt that his warships were all new, and could he not beat the old warships of the Ming Dynasty?

"I think it may take three hours. At least they still have three larger warships, and these ships will definitely be difficult to sink, so I decided to give them an extra hour." This time, Joseph did not have the previous caution and caution. You must know that the Spaniards were invincible in naval battles. He was not unaware of the Ming Dynasty's naval combat ability. He relied on ship-sea tactics and used countless small boats to kill his opponents. Faced with this situation where the number difference was not large, Joseph believed that they could easily defeat the Ming Dynasty's warships, and he had this confidence.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty warship had completed the t-head seizing and began to load ammunition.

"Mr. Joseph, the range of the new artillery on our ship is much further than that of the Ming army. Guess how many ships they can have left after they cross the range gap of our artillery?" Claire said disdainfully.

Joseph spread his hands: "Only God will know this. After all, the battle between armed merchant ships and professional warships will not be chosen to do this, but the Ming people did it. I really can't guess without this experience."

When the Ming warship entered three miles, Claire saw the fire from the mouth of the Ming cannon, so he couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Oh! God! I really doubt that the Ming people would fight naval battles. They actually fired a gun from a distance of three miles. If they could hit my warship, then I would go find the ugliest slave to kneel down and kiss his toes lightly!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, he found in his telescope that several water columns soared into the sky several meters high appeared on both sides of his warship.

"Impossible! How could the Ming Dynasty have a cannon that can be fired so far? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Claire rubbed his eyes in disbelief. He felt that he had read it wrong, but the facts told him that it was not wrong. The Ming Dynasty's cannon was indeed firing at a distance of three miles, and the shell closest to his warship had hit twenty meters.

What does this mean? This shows that the Ming Dynasty's artillery not only has a long range, but also has a precise ballistic trajectory. It can narrow the error to twenty meters far away from the three miles. In this way, they can hit the warships only need a few more adjustments.
