The so-called Batavian Castle is just a castle built on Java Island.

Not the entire island is surrounded by city walls, but artillery is stationed on the main shores and ports.

There were fourteen main warships in the Netherlands. These warships were all first-class battleships, each with eighty artillery pieces on it. Later, six warships were transferred from other places.

The tonnage and power of these warships were previously invincible in Asia.

So far, there has been no defeat, but it has sunk many national warships.

Now Batavia has dispatched all warships, fourteen warships lined up in front of the harbor, ready to fight against the Ming warships at all times.

Six warships are on standby in the harbor and can go out to fight anytime if needed.

The Ming people in Batavia Castle and the Ming people outside the city have gathered together at this time.

They jointly resisted the attacks of multiple troops, but in the end they were defeated and retreated to the beach.

In front was the Batavian army, local indigenous people, as well as the Germans, British and Japanese encirclements. Behind them, there was no way out.

The leader of the resistance movement was Zhang Han. He was engaged in transportation and had dozens of merchant ships and more than a thousand workers.

Zhang Han often runs business at sea. In order to prevent pirates, he used a lot of money to buy some firearms from the Dutch people in private, but he did not expect it to come in handy at this time.

It was he who stood up at the critical moment and organized the Ming people to resist in an organized manner, otherwise the Ming people in Batavia would have been almost destroyed.

Originally, his merchant ship should have been here to pick him up, but no one was seen at this time.

Zhang Han knew that the merchant ship must have been detained by Batavia, so he couldn't help but sigh to the sky:

"God, do you really want us Ming people to be destroyed? I hope that in the near future after our death, the Ming fleet will be able to flatten Batavia and avenge us."

The Ming Dynasty was thousands of miles away, and no one informed me. It was absolutely impossible to save them, such as the Ming people in Batavia.

Besides, even if the Ming fleet arrived, Zhang Han and the others did not believe that the Ming fleet could defeat the powerful sea coachman.

Knowing that surrender was a dead end, he had to fight to the death, Zhang Han immediately concentrated the Ming people with firearms in his hand in the front row to let them resist the attack of the thugs.

Mingren, who had no firearms, even children held a wooden stick in their hands. Zhang Han put them behind them and lay on the ground to prevent them from being shot dead by the firearms in the hands of the thugs.

Once they can't resist, they will fight to the death with the thugs, killing one to make enough money, killing two to earn one.

This is the best way Zhang Hanneng came up with and he will never surrender.

The Ming people were very united at this time, and no one escaped privately. They all glared at the thugs, and their eyes were filled with anger.

But no matter what, they only had more than 500 flintlock rifles, which could not resist the impact of more than 1,000 Netherlands soldiers and tens of thousands of indigenous people. Soon another group of people fell down unyieldingly.

Zhang Han was also shot at this time, and his left arm, thigh and lower abdomen were hit by flintlock bullets.

But he still lies tenaciously on the ground, asking people around him to fill bullets, and still shoots the Netherlands soldiers with one hand.

So far, Zhang Han has killed at least a dozen Dutch soldiers and natives.

"Bang"

"puff"

Suddenly he was shot again with his right arm and he was unable to resist any more.

The flintlock bullet was a small lead bullet. If it were Minnie bullets, Zhang Han would have died in battle long ago.

Zhang Han felt that his life had come to an end. He slowly closed his eyes and couldn't bear to look at those compatriots who were killed by bullets.

At this time, all the Ming people were already desperate. They just wanted to kill a thug, avenge themselves, their compatriots, and their relatives before they died.

Above the vast sea, the Ming fleet had already approached Batavia by slashing waves. Zhu Youjian could see the thick smoke coming out of Batavia at the bow of the Dayu ship.

He hurriedly picked up the telescope and looked at Batavia. The camera was filled with smoke. Zhu Youjian was stunned at the time and turned around to ask Zheng Chenggong:

"Are there other countries attacking Batavia before us? You see, Batavia seems to be experiencing war, and ordered the fleet to move forward in all directions in all directions. No matter which country, it cannot compete with the Ming Dynasty for Batavia."

"Abide by the order"

Zheng Chenggong agreed and immediately ordered Huang Fei, Shi Lang and Zhang Huangyan to lead ten armored warships to advance at full speed, and all of them sank no matter which country the warships they encountered.

He and Zhu Youjian were in charge of the Dayu, leading twenty warships in a row, and heading directly to the Batavia port from the front.

With Zheng Chenggong's order, all warships immediately entered the battle preparations, and the shells were quickly pushed into the barrel and approached Batavia from four directions.

The Ming people on the coast were still fiercely resisting the siege of the Netherlands and the natives.

A twelve or thirteen-year-old child looked at the sea in despair. He wanted to jump into the sea and commit suicide, but suddenly he found that there were many strange ships coming from the sea not far away.

He hurriedly patted Zhang Han who was injured and fell beside him:

"Uncle, look, there are many strange ships on the sea. They are not here to save our Ming warship!"

Zhang Han also wanted the Ming fleet to come to save them, but he felt that it was a child's illusion.

Zhang Han smiled at the child with difficulty:

"Good kids, you are all good. If you have the opportunity to live, it is best to go back to the Ming Dynasty, which is our root..."

Zhang Han and his friends turned their backs to the sea to defend themselves, while the Netherlands and the natives were chasing them in the direction of the sea.

When the children accidentally turned around and saw the strange ships at sea, the Dutch people and the natives who were chasing them also saw the strange ships at sea.

"God, look at me, what is in the sea?"

Seeing the strange ships approaching quickly in the sea, these vicious colonists and local thugs looked at the sea in shock, and forgot to attack the Ming people on the shore.

The strange ships that were sailing towards Zhang Han and the others were the ten Ming iron-armored warships led by Zhang Huangyan.

It is clear at a glance at the sea on the shore, but it is still a bit blurry when viewing the shore on the shore on the shore.

However, the observation post on the Hongwu still saw people surging and smoke from muskets not far from the shore.

The sentry immediately grabbed the walkie-talkie and reported to Zhang Huangyan:

"Report to the Deputy Governor, there seems to be a battle on the coast of Batavia. It is a bit far away and I can't see who they are."

Zhu Youjian has issued an order, no matter which country it is, he cannot compete with the Ming Dynasty for Batavia.

Zhang Huangyan quickly walked out of the command cabin, then climbed up to the observation post, raised the high-power telescope in his hand and looked at the shore.

Whether it is Westerners or local natives in Batavia, they are very different from Chinese.

Especially those black and small Batavian natives look even more like monkeys.

Zhang Huangyan and his team's telescopes are all out of the system, and of course they are not comparable to those single-tube telescopes in Western countries.

As the focal length was adjusted, Zhang Huangyan gradually saw the situation on the shore clearly, as if the Ming people were besieged by foreigners.

On the way, Zhu Youjian had already told the main generals about the persecution of the Chinese in Batavia.

The Ming Dynasty is no longer the Ming Dynasty that suffered from internal and external troubles. How could the Chinese be bullied by those monkeys and red-haired men?

Seeing that it was indeed as the emperor said, Zhang Huangyan was furious and grabbed the intercom and handed down the battle order:

"All captains obeyed the orders, aimed at three cannons on the coast, and destroyed all the Batavian coastal artillery in a round of attacks, allowing the army to land."
