Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Nine The Different Consequences of Contempt and Attention

"More than two hundred years ago, Emperor Chengzuwen sent Zheng He to promote his country's prestige in a peaceful way. Today, two hundred years later, I will use guns and cannons to make the world re-understand the Ming Dynasty!"

Looking at the Western Joint Fleet getting closer and closer outside the window, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but say this. At this time, Liu Rushi's piano sound and the silver needle in Ning Pingluo Ruo's hand both stopped abruptly, and the moment they looked up at Zhu Youxiao.

With a loud bang, the "Da Ming" super giant ship let out his roar. The powerful recoil made the three people in the cabin sway backwards. At this time, the flames were already bursting outside the window, and the shouts of the navy of the Ming South Sea Fleet were also rising one after another. The huge waves were slapped on the tempered glass window, making Liu Rushi and Ning Bin Luo Ruo also exclaim.

"Don't panic, the piano skills are getting better and better. Let's have another song." Zhu Youxiao smiled and patted Liu Rushi's little head, then helped her to the chair again. Seeing that Ning Ping Luo Ruo was also stroking her chest and gasping slightly, she seemed to be scared, so she walked over and took her into her arms, keeping her warm for a while.

Because Zhu Youxiao was very calm, the reinforced version of the cabin that could almost prevent any solid bullet attack was still in a calm state. The cabinet chief Li Mingrui and the Sili Supervisor Wang Chengen had a very good mentality. He was still sitting in the imperial study room in the cabin and criticized the backlog of memorials. Li Mingrui sometimes even chose one or two of them to come and ask Zhu Youxiao for instructions. In short, there was fire outside, but the cabin seemed to be nothing.

Gu Sanmazi's monocular telescope followed the rotation of his eyes like a detector, scanning the enemy ships in front of him, and quickly issued instructions. Countless Ming's latest breeze guns quickly opened fire on an enemy ship exposed to the flanks.

Other frigates used their speed advantage to rush directly into the camps of the Western Combined Fleets on both sides to rush and collid, implementing tactics of actively attacking to achieve defensive goals.

The commander-in-chief of the Western Joint Fleet, Okundo, thought that concentrating artillery fire from more than ten large ships could suppress the "Ming" warship, but he did not expect that the "Ming" had too strong defense capabilities, almost like heavy armored cavalry wearing three or four layers of black iron heavy armor, was completely invulnerable to swords and guns.

But at the same time, it was not easy for me to be exposed on my side to be attacked by the sharp artillery fire of this giant. Moreover, the fleet on both sides of my side attempted to surround the "Ming" also had a chaotic situation. When I saw that I was about to be suppressed, the experienced commander-in-chief Okundo had to order a temporary retreat and change his tactics to attack again.

Trop, a famous general of the Dutch fleet, was also unwilling to execute Okundo's orders, and was also a little depressed. He thought that this naval battle could easily capture the Ming Emperor Zhu Youxiao and his ministers, but he did not expect that it would be so difficult to deal with his flagship now. Of course, he also resented that Okundo did not use the wolves tactic and used a large number of small ships to attack this behemoth, and sent the main ships to deal with smaller ships, so as to achieve the effect of being easy first and then difficult.

Of course, in fact, no matter what attack tactics they adopt, under the huge equipment gap, it is difficult for the Western Combined Fleet to gain advantage on the Ming Dynasty warships. Their only advantage is to use their numerical advantage to suppress the Ming Dynasty warships.

However, what they didn't know was that behind them, three fleets had surrounded the Western Combined Fleet from east, south and west.

The Western Fans, who have dominated the ocean world for a long time, seem to have completely ignored the strength of other countries in the world, and are naively thinking that the whole world is like its own back garden. But in fact, the intelligence system of the Ming Jinyiwei has long spread to the world. It has already grasped the signs of Western Fans trying to organize a joint fleet to attack the Ming Navy half a year ago. Therefore, the Ming Dynasty had already gathered three fleets of the East China Sea, the Ocean and the South China Sea together for military exercises to fight.

But the Western Chinese, who did not attach enough importance to the Ming Dynasty but only focused on plundering interests, did not pay attention to this. On the contrary, because Zhu Youxiao, as a later generation, attached great importance to the Western Chinese, from the very beginning. After the situation in the north was basically stable, the Jinyiwei focused on these Western Chinese, which challenged the Ming Dynasty's maritime strategy.

Even the information that His Majesty would take a boat to patrol Java Island was deliberately revealed to the Western Joint Fleet. In the end, the Western Joint Fleet indeed got into the pre-designed pockets of the Ming Dynasty's Ministry of War and Jinyi.

At this moment, three fleets appeared behind these Western Combined Fleets, and the Western Combined Fleet was not noticed because they were fighting fiercely with Zhu Youxiao's frigate, which caused them to be unable to defend and suffered heavy damage from countless shells.

At this time, Okundo also discovered that there were so many Ming ships, and their scale was obviously larger than that of this side, so he had to turn around and resist the Ming fleet attacking behind him.

Taking advantage of this, the "Ming" super giant ship was safely and unharmed to draw a parabola on the sea surface, leaving the battlefield under the nose of the Western Combined Fleet. The South China Sea Fleet immediately replaced the frigate and launched an attack on the Western Combined Fleet from west to east.

Zhu Youxiao asked Gu Sanmazi to park the "Da Ming" super giant ship on the periphery of the war, so that he could quietly watch the decisive battle between the three Ming fleets and the Western Joint Fleet.

Although the Western Fans have rich experience in naval battles and gather all their strength, they seem to have a large scale in the navy, but they are only a small country and it is impossible to form a large fleet.

As a super powerful country, the Ming Dynasty had financial resources and high-tech technology that the number of warships and equipment level of the three fleets far exceeded that of the Western Combined Fleet.

Therefore, in front of the Ming navy, the arrogant Western Combined Fleet was only qualified to be hung and beaten. Countless Western soft sailboats sank into the seabed, and countless Western flocks were buried in the belly of fish. Because they were joint fleets, there were conflicts between countries, so when failure was about to come, they had no fighting spirit. Many fleets had begun to retreat silently to preserve their strength.

But the Ming navy obviously wanted to let go of these joint fleets. This was already considered the inland sea of ​​the Ming Dynasty. Heiwa of the South China Sea Fleet had led his team to lock the only exit, and the East China Sea Fleet also blocked their way eastward, and the way to escape south was blocked by the ocean fleet. Therefore, this joint fleet could only have two endings, either the trapped beasts were still fighting to die, or the direct surrender might still have a glimmer of life.
