The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

After a long journey from Java Island all the way to the east, under the guidance of a Dutch pilot, I arrived at an island group composed of more than ten small volcanoes. The largest Langta Island is Big Banda Island, which produces cardamom; there are closely adjacent volcanic islands and small Banda Island nearby; 3 islands surround the sea like small lakes, calm waves, clear waters, many coral reefs and aquatic life, white sandy beaches, The coconut grove is swaying, the blue sky and white clouds are exceptionally beautiful!

However, the coming Southeast Army had no intention of viewing it at all. They only had one idea, to grab territory.

Let’s go to Ambon Island!

Ambon Island, also known as "Ampona". The southern island of Maluku, Indonesia. Located on the north shore of Banda Sea, southwest of Sairan Island. The area is 775km. Composed of two hills, the highest point is 1,004 meters. There are east and west bays, and the west bay is 20 kilometers deep inland. The island has a mountainous terrain, rich rainfall and fertile soil, producing sago, potatoes, vegetables and spices. Earthquakes are frequent and strong, and houses are mostly built of stone. The main city and seaport is Ambon City, an important military port and commercial port.

Nutmeg and cloves are very well-known export products on the island. Ambon wood is obtained from the local Indian red sandalwood tree, which is a very precious wood.

The first European Portuguese came to this island in 1513, and the island became the center of Portuguese activities in the Maluku Islands. However, the Portuguese were often attacked by the green religions from the north, and these people and the northern coast of Java Major cities have trade and religious ties.

In 1605, the Dutch drove off the Portuguese, and the Dutchman Stephen captured the city of Ambon without a single shot. Ambon was the headquarters of the Dutch East India Company in 1610-1619, and the company headquarters moved to Badawi. Asia (now Java City).

Now, according to the Dutch "friendly" transfer agreement, Ambon Island belongs to our Chinese.

Whoever robs our territory, eats ours, uses ours, and spit it out!

So Sudan Abdullah Harig, who occupied Ambon Island, felt very helpless and helpless after receiving the ultimatum!

This Sudan emerged at the historic moment after the Dutch and the Southeastern government fought and replaced the Dutch as the master of Ambon. Before long, the Chinese came to the door and said that the site belonged to them.

The Chinese... Harrig knew about them, and was always cowardly, but the Chinese fleet parked outside Ambon Port made people shudder!

All of Sudan's courtiers and generals were silent, because they knew that their five thousand troops with bows, arrows and spears could not deal with such a terrible fleet.

The opponent is strong, and he directly issues an ultimatum, and the element pill surrenders!

Harrig didn't want to surrender. It was obvious that the courtiers were speechless. He was deeply disappointed. The so-called one hero and three gangs, the courtiers were all scared, how could he fight this battle!

His palace hasn't been built yet, and he just feels that the palace transformed with Dutch architecture is very stuffy, and he feels breathless.

At this moment, the Dutchman Heimer rushed in. Seeing this scene, he felt very strange. He asked in the native language: "Aren't you preparing for a battle?"

This Dutchman is tall and thin, just over thirty, at a magnificent age, and full of vitality.

He has been on the ocean-going ship for fifteen years! Half of his life was spent on the ship, first as an ordinary sailor, then as a middle and senior crew member, and only became the captain in the last two years.

The reason why Haimer wanted to go to war with the Southeast Fleet was because his father was an old captain. He was sunk in the last Batavia battle. Therefore, Haimer and the Southeast Mansion have feuds!

As soon as Harrigdheimer said, he immediately stood up and said: "Foreign enemies are invading, and our friends are all anxious for us, but do you want to give up?"

Recognizing Haimer as a friend, Harrieg has a brain!

After he got Ambon, the Dutch in Ambon at that time were left alone because they went to Batavia to fight. There were only more than two hundred Dutch on the island after getting the guarantee that Harrige would not kill after surrendering. Don't surrender, and Harrig treats them like friends. Smart he knows how to use their sailing skills to sell the spices on the island!

Indigenous people do not know how to sail, and only foreigners can do business with foreigners.

The Dutch on the island were grateful for the treatment Harrieg gave them, and were greedy for the profits of the spices, so they served him. Because the route to the Indian Ocean was not clear, the Dutch transported the spices to Luzon, and the Spanish transported them to the Americas, and then transported them. Back to Europe.

When Su Dan was agitated, everyone in the temple was unsteady. Yeah, the enemy came, and the friend was anxious about his own, what it looked like!

Without a second word, prepare now!

...

"They rejected our ultimatum?" Chen De asked on the flagship.

"Yes!" Hong Xiguan sneered: "I can't help it!"

"Don't be careless!" Chen De said solemnly: "The Archon taught us that in any battle, we must kill the chicken with a sledgehammer and go all out to ensure victory!"

"Yes!" Hong Xi official replied, ordering the cruise ship to go forward and fight.

After an hour passed, officials Chen De and Hong Xi were shocked, and the guns of Ambon port landed heavily on their own ships.

"Fight! Fight! Fight!" On the turret, Haimer commanded a group of red hairs to fire. They showed their upper bodies, wore a pair of shorts, and exposed their fluffy bodies. They were busy loading shells and firing continuously.

This fort protrudes on the hill outside the port, with a wide view and strong control.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The artillery made a terrifying sound, dragging the brush from far and near, and the long sound of brushing, mixed with whirring and buzzing, as if to tear something apart. , Came to the top of the southeast warship, whistling and tearing.

This is the sound of heavy artillery!

24 pound gun! 18-pounder!

The expressions of Chen De and Hong Xiguan couldn't help but changed greatly. Sure enough, they saw that the six cruisers in the first battle had received a heavy blow.

The rumble of gunfire from both sides ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The gunfire reflected the sea, and the sound of gunfire and explosions from all directions on the sea was shocking like the sky and the earth. It makes people feel that in front of the rain of steel bullets, people and even cruise ships are so weak and helpless.

The enemy was very cunning. At first, he deliberately used 6-pound small guns to respond to the enemy. When the cruise ship approached the coastline, the camouflage was lifted, and 24-pound guns and 18-pound guns were used to bombard our ship.

The powerful 24-pound and 18-pound guns hit close range and blasted the bulwark of the cruiser!

24 pounds is used on battleships, can penetrate the bulwarks of battleships, and can be used to fight smaller cruise ships, let alone.

In an instant, the two cruisers that rushed forward were in a terrible crisis. They fought back, but they were not equal, and it was difficult to beat each other.

Seeing that his army was in trouble and irritated, Chen De unexpectedly felt fortunate in his heart!

Fortunately, "she" is not a striker.

He and Hong Xiguan looked at each other, and they felt like "I feel sorrowful in my heart". Fortunately, the female captain Chen Yuxue was not at the forward, otherwise he would be in trouble this time.
