If one shot hits, it can be considered a lucky loss; then two shots hits, it can be considered a lucky loss; but now, two Ming warships and two rounds of artillery bombardment have sunk a Dutch warship. This can be said to be a lucky loss, so this lucky loss is really easy to leave!

After this time, the second warship of the Dutch fleet was getting closer and closer to the Ming Navy warship, and the Ming warship took the initiative to meet it.

Governor-General of Batavia, Kun, was watching. This time, before the shooting distance he had estimated, the Dutch warship fired. Or they thought that the Ming army must have had luck, and they might be fine.

However, Kun saw clearly that the shells were in vain. Just like the bad luck, each shell, without exception, accurately avoided the target and landed in the sea to smash the fish.

At the same time, the three Ming Navy warships that met up had fired "boom boom boom" and then they were lucky. The Dutch warship corrected the iron bullet direction of the Ming Navy and smashed it everywhere in the warship.

Even idiots know that the Ming army's artillery has such a high hit rate, which is definitely not a bad luck, but better than theirs!

At this moment, the remaining three Dutch fleets were panicked. Facing the overwhelming Ming naval warships, if they rushed over, they would definitely have the same fate as the first two. There was no choice, and without waiting for Kun to order, the captains of each ship ordered to turn the rudder and turn the rudder. At this time, they had only one idea and fled far away from these Ming naval warships.

However, the Ming Navy warship came in a semicircular bag, just like a net. If you don’t want to be trapped by this net, you can only run into Manila Bay.

In fact, the actual situation is indeed like this. Whether it is the remaining three Dutch warships or the indigenous ships, facing the Ming Navy warships that are overwhelmed by the sea, there is no choice but to rush into the Bay of Manila.

The Ming army navy was not in a hurry, but just maintained its formation and slowly pressed over.

Drive sheep into the pen!

And in Manila Bay, war has begun.

On the flagship of the Dutch fleet, Admiral Anthony was in high spirits and commanded the coalition forces to launch an active attack on the Ming Dynasty naval warships in the "deadly struggle".

Liu Xiang's arson ship left the fleet and collided with the Ming Navy warship; similarly, the arson ship was also Zheng Zhilong's special tactics, and he also sent a small boat to the Dutch fleet. The small boats of the two sides met and had already fought each other before they could set fire.

Logically speaking, the Ming army was obviously at a disadvantage, and the Ming army sailors should have a low morale. However, I don’t know if Zheng Yiguan’s ability is indeed powerful, but the morale of those Ming army sailors was much higher than that of pirates.

After getting close, the Ming army soldiers shouted: "Jump into the sea and don't kill them!"

"Do you work hard for the Western Yi, but your ancestors don't recognize you?"

"You are surrounded, jump into the sea and surrender as soon as possible!"

"It's too late to have blood from fellow compatriots on your hands. It's still too late to jump into the sea now!"

“…”

Whether it was the soldiers of the Ming army or the pirates under Liu Xiang, most of them were from Fujian and Guangdong, and they could understand the words they shouted.

Some pirates were obviously hesitant when they heard it, while some pirates sneered and shouted and responded: "You jumped into the sea, we won't kill you!"

"Let's cheat, look at so many warships in our country, you're dead!"

“…”

Both sides shouted, but their hands were not slow. Generally speaking, these arson ships just hid fire-induced objects. When they rushed up, they lit the fire and jumped into the sea.

However, these pirates obviously did not expect that the official army's fireboat was equipped with a tiger squat cannon. As soon as the ships of both sides approached and were about to make a springboard battle, they heard a "boom" sound, and iron sand sprinkled into the face. The official army then abandoned the tiger squat cannon and jumped over to fight.

When Liu Xiang saw this situation in the back, she was so angry that she cursed: "Zheng Yiguan, a prodigal son, actually equipped with tiger squat cannons on the arson ship. What a fucking prodigal, are you shameless?"

Although he was cursing, he was very envious. Only by relying on the court can he be so rich and powerful! He could even equip a tiger squat cannon on a disposable arson ship. You must know that the arson ship will go but not return, and this tiger squat cannon will definitely sink to the sea.

Although there were many ships here, as soon as the battle broke out, the arson ships were obviously defeated by the arson ships of the official army. Liu Xiang immediately shouted, and then ordered the dispatch of a small warship to stop the arson ships of the Ming army in front.

Anthony, not far away, also saw the battle between the arson ships, and cursed secretly, and then ordered his Dutch fleet to meet them, avoid the arson ships, and bombard the Ming Navy's main formation with the advantage of artillery.

After giving this order, he sneered: "The counterattack at any cost means that these Eastern monkeys already know that they are in desperate situations. Haha, I will definitely give you more time to taste the taste of despair!"

While talking, I turned around and looked back and could see that the indigenous troop transport ship had already entered Manila Bay.

Seeing this, Anthony issued another order, splitting up a part of the fleet and bombarding the Ming Navy warships anchored in the port. He didn't need to command more. His subordinates knew their own advantages and used their artillery advantages to suppress the Ming warships.

The entire Manila Bay is unprecedentedly lively at this time.

The Dutch fleet was in a dark and slowly rushed towards the Ming army warships. The warships of both sides were greeted by the ships, revealing their black muzzles, preparing to exchange fire.

Liang Xiaozhen is in the fleet, and he is the third leader, and he has about 30 ships under his command. However, his subordinates do not understand why the heads did not let them attack? Logically speaking, to secretly preserve their strength, it is often in a stalemate or unfavorable situation. But now, there are more warships on our side than the official army, and the Dutch fleet is stronger than the official army. Why don’t you go up to grab the merits at this time? Didn’t you see that other leaders are very enthusiastic!

Could it be that the arson ship is not good at fighting? But the head of the company didn't even send out the arson ship. I'm afraid it would be difficult to explain the matter when the head of the company investigated this matter?

They were thinking, but the third leader gave them a banner and asked the captain to go to his flagship.

When has it been, and even let the captain go over. Can you not say anything in advance? The captains didn't understand it in their hearts, but when the third chief spoke, they didn't dare to ignore it, so they hurried to see Liang Xiaozhen.

On the Dutch fleet, Anthony watched his fleet press over and was about to reach the range of battle. He actually had the leisure to do so. He snapped his guards and ordered: "Coffee!"

The military order has been arranged, and our side has the advantage of fighting less and boats and cannons. If we can't win this, we can really go home to grow sweet potatoes (drive a carriage).

The next time is to appreciate the destruction of the Ming Navy, bombard the indigenous infantry with a way to land, and then capture Manila. That's all!

"General, the coffee is here!"

After hearing this, Anthony reached out to receive the coffee. Unexpectedly, at this moment, he heard the continuous heavy artillery sound of "boom boom" and it was obvious that the warships began to exchange fire.

He was a little surprised because before he turned to pick up the coffee, he clearly remembered that it would take a while before he could reach the effective range. Why did he exchange fire at such a moment? Could it be that the Ming army could not hold back and fired the fire first? Haha, if this is the case, the Ming army navy is weaker than he thought, and then the war will end faster!

Anthony thought so and looked up subconsciously. But he found that the matter was indeed as he expected. The Ming Navy fired. At that time, the key was that the two warships under his command had hit multiple iron bombs. What's going on?

At this time, his hand just touched the coffee cup. One of them was not held firmly. The coffee cup fell down and broke with a "slap". The coffee didn't enter his stomach and spilled all over the deck.

However, at this time, Anthony no longer had the heart to care about how coffee was. He looked up and stared at the port and found that other naval warships in the Ming Dynasty were also firing. Although many shells were empty and landed in the sea, each warship would always hit the target. The warships under his command were already rescuing the ship before they could fire.

This...what is going on?

Anthony looked at all this, really beyond his expectations, and for a moment, he was a little confused!

You know, in their impression, the best artillery of the Ming army was called the Red Barbarian Cannon, and the Dutch were the Red Barbarians. This means that the artillery of the Ming army was just a model for them. In their consciousness, the artillery of the Ming army could not be more powerful than their artillery!

And on Liang Xiaozhen's flagship, at this time, his captains had already rushed to his ship and surrounded him and asked what they were doing.

Liang Xiaozhen glanced around them and shouted loudly, "I can tell you a message. At this time, outside Manila Bay, the imperial navy had more than 200 warships, including about 100 sailing warships, which had blocked Manila Bay. The court would win this battle."

When he heard this, his subordinates were stunned. Why did they listen to it? It was like talking in a sleep!

"It's impossible, it's impossible for the imperial court to have so many warships. We investigated in advance, aren't there only one hundred warships here?"

"How did you know what happened outside Manila Bay?"

"What's the matter, who is this?"

“…”

Liang Xiaozhen knew that his subordinates would question him. When he was about to speak, he heard the "boom boom boom" sounds continuously, interrupting his speech. Everyone turned around and looked, but was stunned to find that the Dutch fleet they thought was the most powerful was actually bombarded by the Ming Navy warships so hard that they could not fight back.

This...what is going on?

When Liang Xiaozhen saw this, she smiled happily and said, "See, the strength of the court is not something you can imagine!"

When his men heard him speak, they turned around and looked at him in surprise. They were a little confused and couldn't understand. What's going on?

"Okay, listen well, I'll tell you the truth!" Liang Xiaozhen glanced at them and said solemnly, "Actually, I'm an undercover agent!"

"..." After hearing this, all his subordinates, a crow flew over his forehead, still in a daze.

Seeing them stupid, Liang Xiaozhen had to explain in detail: "Actually, I am a spy in the Jinyiwei. What I said just now is true. The court will win this battle! You have been with me for many years, and this time you will have a chance to make meritorious contributions, otherwise there will be no shops after passing this village!"

Speaking of this, he felt that he had explained enough, and then his face turned cold and his voice increased a lot: "I am willing to do it with my brother, don't talk nonsense, raise your hand!"

Even if he stared at people, his subordinates couldn't stand it. Whether they believed it or not, as long as they didn't agree, they would definitely not be able to get off the ship.

Seeing that his subordinates raised their hands, Liang Xiaozhen immediately ordered to take advantage of this last opportunity to make a good contribution.

After being stunned for a long time, Anthony finally came to his senses and turned to see that there were more and more ships coming in from the entrance of Manila Bay. He made a decision and immediately issued a banner, ordering all ships, including the Dutch fleet and the warships of the Liuxiang Pirate Group, to press up, and fight less, and get closer. Only in this way can the advantage of the Ming Dynasty naval artillery be offset.

This kind of fighting style will definitely suffer a greater loss. However, whoever gave the Ming Navy's artillery advantage was that long-range shooting was simply to waste his own warships.

After this order, Liu Xiang hesitated. The reason why he settled in Nanyang was the ships in his hands. If he rushed up like this, he would not know that the ships under his hands would suffer a lot of losses.

Thinking of this, he was slow to go.

However, Anthony also wanted to make his warships lose less. Therefore, his sailing warships were heading against Liu Xiang's fleet and used their strong ships and sharp cannons to force Liu Xiang's ship to top it first.

The Dutch's shameless behavior made Liu Xiang piss his feet and cursed. However, he had no way to resist because the Dutch was his master.

Anthony looked at Liu Xiang's fleet and was finally forced to rush towards the Ming Navy by himself, and couldn't help but smile proudly.

At this moment, the lookout whistle suddenly shouted: "God General, it seems that the situation is not right there!"

Anthony looked at him and sure enough, there were densely packed ships in the Manila Bay, all of whom were driving in frantically.

Logically speaking, this is nothing. This was the plan, so that the indigenous ships were transporting troops in to land and seize Manila. But the key to the problem was, why were the indigenous ships rushing to come in? Even if there were mountains of gold and silver to grab, there was no need to be like this. Many ships collided with each other, and many people fell into the water. Judging from their appearance, it seemed that there was a tiger chasing behind them, and they were scrambling to escape!

But how is this possible? It doesn't make sense! Anthony couldn't figure it out!
