Chapter 500
As soon as the Ming Dynasty warship arrived, three shells bombarded the Banten warship, which was shelling the cargo ship, into countless debris.
When the other Bandan patrol ships saw that their souls were scared away at that time, and there was no way to fight this battle.
"Quick...retreat quickly, it seems that it is the Ming warship..."
"Bang bang..."
The leader of the Banten fleet hurriedly sent an order to retreat, and this matter had nothing to do with them.
Helping the Netherlands soldiers was completely flattering, and I never thought that the Ming Dynasty would have a fleet to come here.
They all knew the strength of the Ming fleet in the past, especially during Zheng He's voyage to the West.
Later, they never saw the Ming fleet. They all thought that the Ming Dynasty had completely declined and could not protect themselves.
Now it seems that it is not the case. The Ming Dynasty warship doesn't even need sails, and three shells directly smash the Bandan warship.
"The captain is not doing well, we have no way to escape, find a way..."
After they turned the rudder, the sailor suddenly pointed at them behind them and shouted in panic.
The leader of the Bandan fleet looked in the direction of the sailor's finger, and indeed the retreat of development had been blocked by the Ming warships.
It was not the Ming Iron Armored Battleship that blocked their battleships, but the huge sailing battleships.
It turned out that Zhu Cixuan led the sail warship to quickly circumnavigate to the rear of the Bandan fleet and blocked them from retreating.
Don’t underestimate the Ming transport ships, they are all modified with standard warships, with naval guns on them the same size as iron armored warships.
It's just a little less, and the size of the warships is close to that of the Western Class 1 battleships.
Most of the transport ships are composed of the original main warships of the Ming Navy and the main warships of the Zheng family.
Because it is difficult to build iron armored warships, more than 200 ships were built later in the Ming Dynasty.
Under normal circumstances, when facing armored warships and sail warships, everyone will choose sail warships.
The same is true for the flagship command of the Banten Fleet, who did not hesitate to order the fleet to break through from the direction of the sailing warship.
But just as they advanced for a while, the naval guns on the Daming Sail Battleship began to roar.
"Boom"
"Bang bang bang..."
"Crack click..."
With the roar of the sail warships and cannons, three more Bandan warships were bombarded into countless pieces of broken wood.
Several Dutch soldiers on the Banten Fleet's flagship were pale, and they felt that they were doomed today.
The always arrogant colonist wanted to command the Banten fleet to escape at this time.
"You idiots, hurry up and run away in another direction. Your warships are too small and you have no way to fight against the Ming warships..."
The commander of the Bandan Fleet observed around and found that there was no possibility of escaping at all. The Ming Fleet had surrounded them.
Hearing the Dutch people scolded him, the commander of the Banten Fleet was immediately angry and pointed at the Dutch soldiers and cursed:
"Shut up, if you hadn't saved you stupid pigs, we wouldn't have been attacked by the Ming warships..."
The Netherlands soldiers were not willing to show weakness and cursed at the command of the Banten Fleet. At such a critical moment, they actually started to slap on the warship.
"Boom"
"Bang bang bang..."
Suddenly, more than a dozen shells bombarded the flagship of the Banten Fleet.
The commander of the Banten fleet and the Netherlands soldiers who were fighting were immediately covered with artillery shells.
A warship as small as Bandan can withstand more than a dozen shells.
The deck and cabin were penetrated by shells, and the warship was instantly split.
The commander of the Banten Fleet and the Netherlands soldiers also received the lunch box.
Zhu Cilang stood at the bow of the warship and saw with his own eyes that the six Wandan warships were easily sunk by the Ming warships, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"A small country dares to fight against the Celestial Empire, it's like a moth to the fire, continuing to fire artillery, and sinking them all."
"Boom..."
A sound of cannons sounded, and three more Banten warships were broken up by shells.
Seeing that six of his country's warships were gently sunk by the Ming Dynasty, he didn't even have a chance to fight back.
The remaining few captains of the Bandan warships only remembered that they had one more way to go, that is, surrender.
The Ming Dynasty always won over people with virtue. They believed that as long as they surrendered, they would definitely survive.
So the captains of several warships immediately ordered the white flag to be raised and surrendered.
Seeing the three Bandan warships raising white flags, the Ming warship immediately reported to Huang Fei:
"Governor, will you accept their surrender on the Bandan ship?
Under normal circumstances, Huang Fei would directly decide the result, but today Zhu Cixuan is here, so he must ask the prince's opinion.
Huang Fei picked up the walkie-talkie:
"Your Highness, the Banten warship has surrendered. Will the bombardment stop?"
Huang Fei's words reminded Zhu Cilang of the past bandits and the east abducted, and he snorted coldly at that time:
"General, I shouldn't have interfered with your navy's decisions, but these people deserve to die.
During the heyday of the Ming Dynasty, they recognized us as the sect leader. Once the Ming Dynasty showed weakness, they would be ungrateful.
Could it be that they would fight if they wanted to fight, and that would not fight if they didn't want to fight, and the Ming Dynasty could only passively accept their surrender?
General Huang, I suggest not accepting their surrender. As for how you decide, I will not force you."
When Huang Fei heard Zhu Cilang's words, he felt secretly amused. The prince clearly wanted to kill all these people, but he didn't say it directly.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, the general also had this intention. The Ming Dynasty did not accept their surrender and sent an order to sink them."
When Zhu Cilang heard Huang Fei say this, his face smiled.
"Boom..."
With Huang Fei's order, the armored warship Wanli immediately opened fire and fired volleys.
The three Bandan warships quickly turned into a pile of scrap wooden boards amid the rumbling cannons.
The soldiers of the Wandan soldiers on the warship were either bombarded with shells into meat pies or buried in the belly of fish.
In one stick of incense, more than a dozen Bandan warships were sunk.
The Ming people who escaped from the two cargo ships knelt on the deck and thanked the soldiers of the Ming fleet.
"Thanks to the Ming Fleet for saving us from overseas Ming people. We are willing to follow the Ming Fleet back to China and do our best for the country..."
Zhu Cilang could understand their feelings. His situation when he first left the capital was the same as these Ming people.
"Quick, let the warships get closer to them, I want to say a few words to them."
"yes"
When the warship approached the cargo ship, Zhu Cilang called out to those Ming people who were in trouble:
"Friends, we are all a family, you all have a balance. Now Batavia has been controlled by the Ming Dynasty. Don't go back to the Ming Dynasty. Batavia still needs you, go back quickly!"
When he heard that Batavia was actually controlled by the Ming Dynasty, the Ming people on the cargo ship were happy and thanked Zhu Cilang again:
"Thank you for your help, we will return to Batavia immediately after hearing your words."
They didn't know that this kind young general was the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, and they thought he was the commander of the fleet.
Seeing two cargo ships heading towards Batavia, Huang Fei immediately ordered the fleet to speed up the navigation.
It took ten kilometers of sea areas, and it didn't take long to go long, and soon the Ming fleet approached the Wandan Coast.
Huang Fei's order:
"The Ming soldiers, seeing that there was no coast ahead, gave me a carpet bomb to clear all obstacles for His Highness and King Ding to land in Wandan."
