I saw the Batavia rushing towards the Hongwu regardless of everything.

Shi Lang, Huang Fei, Zhang Huangyan and other Ming generals were shocked and hurriedly ordered:

"Quick, concentrate all the guns on the Batavia, and be sure to sink it..."

"yes"

"Boom boom boom"

"Boom"

Except for the three warships led by Huang Fei, the naval guns on the other warships roared violently and began to shell the Batavia.

Although the Batavia was partially armored, it was still a wooden sail warship. How could it withstand the baptism of the Ming army's shells everywhere?

Soon, the left and right strings of the Batavia were severely damaged, and many parts were almost shattered by shells. Wood chips splashed on the warship and plunged into the deep sea.

Huang Fei was directly opposite the warship and the Hongwu. He was worried that he would accidentally hurt his flagship and dare not fire the fire, so they vented their anger on other Dutch warships.

When the Batavia sinks, the Chongzhen battleship sinks another Dutch battleship. The other three Dutch warships do not have the courage to commit suicide, so they obediently raise the white flag and surrender.

Anthony's face was full of pain and could only watch it, gradually submerged in the sea waters of the Batavia mast. This warship, once the flag of the Netherlands, has now sunk to the bottom of the sea.

He knew that the colonization of the Netherlands Empire in Asia was almost over on this day. Their most powerful fleet in Asia was wiped out and they have no ability to compete with the great powers at present.

Zheng Chenggong looked at Anthony with disdain and spoke lightly:

"Anthony, is this your powerful invincible fleet? What a bullshit coachman at sea, completely vulnerable."

Anthony lowered his head and couldn't say a word.

He himself didn't know why the once powerful Dutch fleet was so vulnerable in front of Ming army warships. Is it just because the Ming army was an iron construction warship?

In a naval battle between fleets, it is difficult to wipe out the opponent completely, and one can escape no matter how you do it.

In today's naval battle, no Dutch fleet had a chance to escape. This was Bolton's mistake and the irresponsibility of the soldiers. To be more precise, they were too arrogant.

If they could find the Ming warships encircled earlier, if they escaped before the Ming warships encircled, the Netherlands fleet would definitely not be completely wiped out.

The Ming army boarded the Red Warship and came to report to Zheng Chenggong soon:

"Report to the Governor, there are more than 30 people living on the two Red-haired warships. How to deal with them? Please give instructions to the Governor."

"thump……"

Anthony sat in the cabin and felt like he was completely broken.

There were at least seven or eight hundred people from the twelve warships to support the city of Relanzha. Now only more than thirty people survived. The battle was so miserable.

Zheng Chenggong nodded, then took out a note, took a look and immediately showed a surprised expression.

"The Lord's Hand Order"

After hearing the emperor's order, all the soldiers on the warship fell to the ground. The Dutch people looked at each other's companions, and finally knelt down like the Ming army."

Zheng Chenggong was very satisfied with the performance of these surrendered red-haired ghosts. He nodded slightly and began to read the contents of the emperor's handwriting:

"The Netherlands took advantage of the civil strife in the Ming Dynasty and invaded our Ming Dynasty territory, occupied Taiwan for more than 30 years, plundered our Ming Dynasty resources and property, and bullied and killed our Ming people. I specially sent Zheng Chenggong, the governor of the Ming Navy, to lead troops to regain Taiwan and expel the Dutch colonists.

And he demanded that the Netherlands Empire pay 10 million taels of silver as compensation for the Ming Dynasty and the people of the Ming Dynasty that you bullied and killed, with a period of two months. If the compensation is refused, the Ming Dynasty will cut off trade with the Netherlands and declare war on the Netherlands Empire."

Before Zheng Chenggong finished speaking, the Ming army soldiers felt their blood boiling and shouted:

"The emperor is wise, far away in the capital, and he actually knows that we have wiped out the Red Hair Fan. Long live our emperor."

Some people may ask, why did Zheng Chenggong have an emperor's handwriting in his hands?

In fact, when Zhu Youjian summoned Zheng Chenggong at the Ganqing Palace, the two had already communicated with the current situation of the Ming Navy and the Taiwan issue.

Taiwan is far away from the local area and communication is inconvenient. In order to make Zheng Chenggong let go and regain Taiwan, Zhu Youjian wrote a note to Zheng Chenggong.

He also told Zheng Chenggong that he would not be allowed to peek at the handwritten order before regaining Taiwan. Once he successfully regained Taiwan, he would immediately open the note to watch.

Although he was very curious, Zheng Chenggong never peeked at the emperor's handwriting and finally waited for this day.

When Zheng Chenggong first saw the content of the emperor's handwriting, he was also very shocked.

He never expected that the emperor had arranged all the funerals for the recovery of Taiwan.

After the generals stood up, Zheng Chenggong looked at Shi Lang and asked:

"Shi Lang, how damaged the Red-haired warship is, can it still sail at sea?"

Shi Lang hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted:

"Report to the Governor, there are two Red-haired Ghost Warships, one is seriously damaged and cannot sail, and the other is fully capable of sailing to Batavia."

Zheng Chenggong:

"Okay, sink the useless warship, and hand over another warship to Anthony, and let them go back to report the news."

Before Zheng Chenggong finished speaking, Shi Lang immediately expressed his objection:

"Governor, isn't this right? We finally caught them. Why did you let the red hair go? Isn't this equivalent to letting the tiger go back to the mountain? There are endless troubles!"

Zheng Chenggong looked at Shi Lang with a smile and asked:

"What do you mean, kill them all, right? Letting them go is the emperor's decision, not the emperor's intention. Besides, if you don't let them go, what should you do if you don't let them go? Shi Lang, will you give it to me?"

Shi Lang scratched his head awkwardly and stopped talking. Since it was the emperor's decision, there was no room for him to oppose Shi Lang.

"Come, send Anthony and these red-haired ghosts to their warships and let them get out."

"yes"

Zheng Chenggong's words almost moved Anthony to death, including other red-haired ghosts, and some even shed tears of crocodile.

After being captured by the Ming army, they thought they would die, but they did not expect to survive. As for how to explain to the superiors when they went back, that was the matter after they went back, and it was the most important thing to survive for the time being.

Anthony plucked up his courage and decided to confirm again:

"Governor, are you really letting us go? Isn't this a dream?"

The answer to him was Zheng Chenggong's cold words:

"Are you dreaming? You can ask your Lord, this is the handwriting of my Emperor of Ming. You take him back and hand him over to your king, and give you a two-month deadline, otherwise it will mean war, and our Ming fleet will sail to Amsterdam."

"It's great, please don't worry, the governor, we will definitely hand over the handwriting of the Emperor of Ming to His Majesty the King."

Hearing Zheng Chenggong's threatening words, although Anthony was unhappy, he still agreed readily.

As for the Ming fleet when it arrived in Amsterdam, Anthony believed that the Netherlands would destroy the Ming fleet without mercy with the strength of the whole country.
