The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas
Chapter 865: War is a must
The Chinese flagship admiral Dutchman Tromp, led forty warships to attack!
His lieutenants are Jost Bonquet, John Iverson, and Witt de DeWitt;
The British admiral Robert Black, the former flagship of the army, led 30 warships to attack!
His lieutenants are George Aisgu, Michael Parker, and Richard Dean;
The flagship of the rear army, the Spanish admiral Marcos Del, Porto, led thirty-two warships to attack!
The generals sent by the Netherlands and the United Kingdom are very tough. Tromp is the first hero of the Dutch Navy, and Turnip Black is one of the pioneers of the Royal Navy and is known as the "Father of the Royal Navy"!
Their lieutenants are all good hands. This time the red hairs of the countries who crossed the Sanyang to kill people and goods are all fierce and evil --- an obvious example, they drove the heavy sailing period double-deck battleship to Asia, and no one came to Asia. There was an accident at sea midway, and they all arrived smoothly, demonstrating extremely high sailing capabilities.
Looking at their ship-handling skills, they performed the same operations in unison, smoothly grabbing the wind, with high speed and high level.
Tromp looked at the fleet with a satisfied expression. He asked the high commissioner of the Dutch East India Company Carl Venerell, "Is it necessary to use so many people to deal with the Chinese, even if I and Carrot Black come together!"
He has done many games with the British Carrot Head Black, knowing the roots and knowing the bottom, knowing that everyone is a master of naval warfare, and sent one with the role of the Sea King Trident (Dinghai Shenzhen), let alone the two together!
He didn't even expect that he would have a chance to face the enemy together with Turnip Black!
Carl said categorically: "Too necessary!"
He asked Tromp, "Do you know the Spice Islands?"
"Know!" Tromp responded.
Looking at the azure blue sea, Carl leisurely said: "The Spice Islands used to be ours, but now they are controlled by the Chinese. We used to buy a ship of spices in the Spice Islands at a cost of 3,600 pounds, and transported to the London market can sell for 36,000 pounds. !"
"Yeah!" Tromp had heard it, and Karl said, "The spice business is extremely profitable. The key is that it can balance our trade. The Spaniards have silver, and we have spices!"
"Did you drink tea?" Carl asked.
"Drink tea!" Tromp admitted: "I drink tea as water, better than drinking!"
"Yes!" Carl agreed: "Drinking may make people fall into the sea, but drinking tea can make people more energetic!"
"There are countless populations in the land of Daming in the east. They produce tea, porcelain and the silk we wear!" Kalmo shark said, wearing the material of his clothes, which was made of high-grade silk from Daming.
"They are crowded and we can't land. We can only occupy the ocean and trade with them. With spices, we can still balance our income and expenditure. Otherwise, our money will only go out and not in."
"The Chinese are a diligent race. Since the Chinese came to Southeast Asia, a large number of Chinese have arrived in Southeast Asia. They developed islands, planted a lot of food, and also planted sugarcane, tea, cassava and various fruits! Countless more have been fished out of the sea. Fish, they produced all kinds of weird foods, such as shark fins, abalones, crocodiles, sea cucumbers, and even the saliva of swallows! They opened up new sources of wealth, and found a lot of gold in their Jinshan province. They also grow oil palm everywhere, pressing the oil can be lit at night, and can also be used for eating. In addition, they have also developed tin ore, oil, coal, iron, etc., which are very prosperous and have a lot of wealth every year. !"
"This happened!" Tromp was first here. He only knew spices and didn't know much about Southeast Asia. He didn't expect Southeast Asia to become so rich. He was stunned and shocked: "They even eat crocodiles?"
Hong Maofan knows how powerful crocodiles are. They are a master in the water, and they never thought that the Chinese would even dare to speak up.
"Yes, the Chinese eat everything. The fins of sharks can be made into shark fins. They kill sharks in large quantities. To tell the truth, I hunted sharks in the Red Sea. I killed 10,000 sharks in one summer and sold them to the Chinese. , Earned a thousand silver dollars!"
"Not only that, they also collect the fish bubble (fish fat) of the big fish and make it into fish maw. We also catch a large number of grouper in the Red Sea. The bigger the better, the larger the fish maw that can be made. Therefore, the rockfish along the coast We were all caught up in five years!" Carl recalled his days as a fisherman, day and night, it was a lot of hard work for the Chinese!
Shark's fin, fish maw, sea cucumber and abalone are essential ingredients for the famous dish "Buddha Jumping over the Wall".
Well, the instigator, Yan Dashao, admitted that the Chinese were skewed by him. He just wanted to drink "Buddha jumping over the wall". On a whim, he drank the Buddha jumping over the wall every time he finished a battle. It was called victory soup. What could be more painful than after a big victory. What's more refreshing to drink the mellow, top-grade old fire soup?
Restricted by the people around him, he doesn't agree with him to drink more, so let's drink soup.
No, the people of the two Chinas followed their leader and fell in love with the "Buddha jumping over the wall", not to mention Southeast Asian Chinese, not to mention Guangdong, Guangdong, Fujian and Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The Buddha jumped over the wall and jumped over the Yangtze River, heading north of the Yangtze River, towards the inland areas. Going forward, the people greet the Buddha jumping over the wall, and you are embarrassed if you don’t have an altar "Buddha jumping over the wall", so the baby shark is in bad luck!
"It's incredible!" Tromp shrugged.
Carl lamented: "We also know that there are endless treasures in Southeast Asia, but we don't pay enough attention to it. There were not many people, not enough ships, and the British were making trouble. They sold sugar for the Chinese and gave them money. Shouldn't, they sold battleships and artillery to the Chinese, and even taught the Chinese to build battleships!"
Out of anger, he punched the bulwark hard!
In the past, the British were not as powerful as the Strait of Malacca. They did not want the Dutch to monopolize the benefits, so they came to make trouble. They were satisfied. The Chinese drove the Dutch out of the Strait of Malacca, but the Chinese sea power also threatened the British.
"War is a must. We must destroy the Chinese fleet, trap them on the mainland and islands, and then we will capture the islands and let them create wealth for us. Therefore, you are absolutely not in vain!" Carl said harshly.
"The British are eating their own fruits, and soon the Chinese cannons will bleed and die!" Tromp squinted and looked at the battleship ahead with a huge red cross flag on a white background. It was Carrot Head Black. The flagship "St. George", this is a battleship equipped with 74 cannons.
The first battleship came out from Yan Changwu. The British learned the fastest. They knew that the Chinese had a "Nanhai-class" three-tier battleship with 70 guns, and they immediately built a 74-cannon battleship to suppress the Nanhai class.
As a result, the Chinese produced a "Southeast Asian-class" three-tier battleship with 76 guns, and the British were also building larger battleships ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This is how the arms race came about.
The red cross flag on the white background hung on Carrot Black’s flagship “St. George” is very famous in Europe. It originated from St. George’s Dragon Slaying, St. George, a Roman military officer, and was killed in 303 AD while preventing the persecution of Christians. In 494 AD, he was canonized for Pope Glasius I ().
Legend has it that he once appeared in Europe to kill dragons in the name of the Lord, eradicating extremely ferocious dragons, and at the same time the dragon blood in the place gradually formed a cross.
During the Third Crusade (1189—1192), King Richard I of England (the famous Lion Heart King, which means the lion’s dominance and fierce heart) personally led his troops to "St. George Slaying the Dragon". In a nearby battle, they won a big victory, and the British army was shocked.
King Richard I of England believed that it was Saint George who was blessing them. From then on, Saint George was regarded as the patron saint of Britain.
In 1277, the United Kingdom designed the "St. George's Flag" (British Flag) with a red cross on a white background based on the legend of "dragon blood forming a cross" (St. George's Cross), and at the same time used the "St. George's Cross" as the British Army's Heraldry.
Fight under the banner of the "St. George's Cross", this is a holy war!
