The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

Chapter 269: Siresma's method

It’s easy to forget about sleep and food or forget everything in battle. At this time, I’m talking about a kind of consciousness, showing a level. The performances of the old warriors and the nouveau riche in the emergency chapter are very different. The shooting down may be an instant effort. Almost all the captains did not notice, but were seen by Siresma, or felt by him (the battle line is a diagonal line).

   Why did the flagship retreat?

He thought about it for less than a minute and came to the same conclusion as Storm. This is not only his judgment, but also from his precise monitoring of the gunpowder inventory on the ship. It is indeed not much, and the inventory is almost used. Four-fifths,

According to the current consumption rate of these guys, heavy artillery has been used a lot. The opponent is light artillery. Heavy artillery has the upper hand, but it does not work decisively. Once there is no gunpowder, the light artillery can chase after the enemy. Then Any problems will arise, and it is difficult to predict.

   People molested you to death!

   "The warlord wanted to retreat, but the flag was gone before the gold was raised, and the flagship must have gone wrong!" Siresma ordered: "Raise the retreat flag, let's retreat!"

   "Retreat?" The officers and soldiers around him were shocked!

   Someone notified the deputy captain Lu Xiao who was busy on the gun deck. He went up to the open deck and asked: "Captain, why did you order a retreat? The flagship did not win gold, nor did the retreat flag rise!"

   "It was up just now, but it was shot down!" Siresma said calmly.

   "This is incredible!" Lu Xiao shook his head greatly: "We can't retreat without the flagship's order!"

   "Yes! There is no flag on the flagship!" someone said while holding a telescope.

   Several sets of binoculars saw that there was no flag on the flagship, and they all said the same thing.

   Siresma took out his pistol, and beside Lu Xiao, seven or eight guns were aimed at Siresma!

  Compared to the captain, everyone believed that the deputy captain, who was also a Han Chinese, was so much more that Siresma approached the guards and only two of them aimed their guns at Lu Xiao, while the other ten guards were surprised and at a loss.

   "Boom!" Siresma shot his left calf with his right hand!

   Blood flew suddenly, this incident surprised everyone.

   Siresma took gunpowder to fill it up, and said over there: "Since you refuse to believe me, I understand why you are, but I don't want to fight with you, so I have to hurt Mingzhi!"

   "The next shot, I will hit the right leg! I will continue to fight until you believe it, or beat myself to death!" Siresma spoke calmly, as if it wasn't his own body!

  Sure enough, he was a soldier, he used a simple and rude method, and everyone was stunned!

   Lu Xiao’s forehead was covered with beads of sweat. He never thought that a foreigner would use such a method in order to be convinced!

   Seeing that Siresma is loaded, the gun is handed to the left hand, and the right leg is facing, and the trigger is about to be pulled!

   "Stop!" Lu Xiao roared.

   "Huh!" He gasped and said, "Listen to the captain, raise and retreat the flag!"

   Siresma unquestionably said: "Raise the retreat flag! Sound the gong to retreat!"

  Dangdangdang!

   Soon after the flag of the retreat flag designed by Yan Changwu was raised, many captains heard the continuous sound of gongs and saw the signal of retreat. They couldn't believe it.

  At present, our army is in a good situation. As long as the fight continues, according to the damage of the Dutch ship, the Dutch will first be unable to support it!

   But when they saw that the flagship and the forward flagship had turned the helm to the north, and then the deputy admiral Li Ying's ship also sounded the gong to retreat and raise and retreat the flag, so everyone believed.

   The ships turned, scrambling to display the previously trained headwinds, and turned north to leave the battlefield.

   "Cunning Mingren!" Governor Speke exasperated and ordered a pursuit.

   Then he watched jealously at the speed of the Ming ship pulling one kilometer away in one hour, leaving the Batavia fleet in vain! (The masts of the ships in the Southeast Fleet are basically fine. The Dutch did not focus on using chain bombs. Everyone is solid ammunition versus solid ammunition)

   The sound of artillery continued. The Southeast Fleet was retreating while fighting. Their streamlined ship was very conducive to escape. Even the speed of the battleship was an eye-opener for the Dutch!

   By 7 o'clock in the evening, the two fleets disengaged, the Southeast Fleet headed north, and the Batavia Fleet headed south back to Hong Kong. The first Batavia battle was just over!

   The result of the battle was that neither ship was sunk. Both sides claimed to be the victor. Because the Dutch had five ships out of the team, the Southeast Army prevailed on the scene, and the Dutch said that they drove away the invading Mingren.

   This battle is an eye-opener for both sides!

  The Dutch use warships that are worse than the Southeast Army, relying on their superb ship control skills and artillery ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The Southeast Army did not take advantage.

   After returning, Governor Speke once again sent a letter to the country, strongly recommending battle line operations and Mingren-style battleships!

   In this battle, both sides strictly used the battle line to fight, and there was no break-up.

   But when Governor Speke inspected the situation, what surprised him was not the damage to the ship, but the number of casualties, more than 2,000 people!

Under his mobilization, the Dutch East India Company did its utmost to mobilize tens of thousands of people to participate in the war (not exclusively Dutch, but other Europeans, such as Italians, Germans, Eastern Europeans, etc., as well as indigenous and South Asians). People, Europeans are very smart not to use Chinese to participate in the war, mainly because they are so industrious that they will still hold the military power in the future, that's okay), and lose one-fifth.

   Because of the poor medical conditions at the time, injury meant death. A thousand or five people died, and the rest were half disabled.

"Mingren's firepower is really great!" Governor Speke is deeply worried, because Young Master Yan from the Southeast Mansion is a madman with firepower. In addition to being keen on shooting, he also equips his soldiers with flintlocks and is frantic. Even chefs, carpenters, sail repairers, and other "craftsmen" professional non-commissioned officers and assistants who could have been out of the battle, also participate in gun training, and go to shoot in wartime! (The only exemption is that the doctor does not need to shoot.)

   The long shots kept firing, although the hit rate was low, but they couldn't stand a lot of shots. As a result, the Dutch had a good meal of bullets.

   Fortunately, we don’t use the side battle!

   In fact, the Dutch are good at melee, and they are good at gang warfare, so they attack the enemies with many guns. They don't go forward cleverly.

   Governor Speke headaches not only that, but also people's hearts!

   As they failed to win, all classes of Batavia were whispering for several days after the war.
