The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

? Once upon a time, Hong Maofan was the pride of the ocean. They took sailboats, invited them to travel around the world, and went everywhere. The shadows of their sails were left in all the seas of the world.

They also wandered outside the Chinese mainland. The mainland was Chinese and the ocean was white!

But now, the South China Sea has long since become the inner lake of the Chinese, and the Southeast Asia of Novartis has long been lost. Now Ceylon and India seem to be unable to keep it!

Retreat and retreat, it is time to return to Africa to be company with blacks.

...

Ceylon, the fortress of Colombo.

On the city wall, Portuguese Governor Rogerio put down the telescope in his hand and sighed heavily, only feeling bitter.

The surface of the fortress facing the sea was covered with Chinese battleships, and the white man’s own battleships disappeared!

The Dutch, Spanish, and British are all unreliable and shamelessly deserted!

The Portuguese were left to face the powerful Chinese fleet. Don't they know that if Ceylon is lost and the Chinese get a foothold, the whites will not even be able to keep India!

It will even bring a chain reaction, India, West Asia, the Arab region, Africa and other places will be within the attack range of those yellow-skinned monkeys.

Rogerio is covered in silk and satin, handsome, such a guy belongs to a leisurely colonial official, drinking, tea, hunting and picking girls at parties are good hands, stealing money is ruthless, it is even more terrible to blow up the cowhide, he is required to go Fighting wars, doing such dirty and indecent things, oh, mygod!

However, he saw the strong defenses of the fortress, and he was a little confident. Maybe he would become a hero who resisted those infidels!

Colombo was occupied by Baipi early in the last century. After a long period of operation, it became a fortress-style city and an important stronghold of Baipi in Asia. It has experienced wars many times and has always stood firm.

On June 4, 1587, the army of King Ceylon Stavaka appeared near Colombo. According to the Portuguese, it includes 50,000 soldiers, the same number of civilians, and another 10,000 coolies. There are 500 musketeers and more than 1,000 artisans, as well as 2,200 elephants, 40,000 cattle, 150 light and heavy artillery pieces and 65 light warships to block the port of Colombo.

At that time, the Portuguese had only 300 troops, and another 700 mercenaries from the South Asian subcontinent and the local area, but they needed to protect 60,000 people, and the time when King Stavac sent troops was in the Indian Ocean monsoon season, and the waves were turbulent. The sea blocked the reinforcements of other Portuguese colonies to Colombo.

With a mere thousand of troops against tens of thousands, the Portuguese defended Colombo. Are they supermen?

In fact, the Portuguese had tens of thousands of troops. They cleverly mobilized the local people. Those with vested interests participated in the defense of the city. At the same time, they were able to host the Ceylon people by virtue of their superior guns and city defense.

Rogerio is looking forward to re-interpreting the legend of 300 Portuguese warriors defeating 100,000 Sri Lankans and becoming a Portuguese hero. Let the cowardly Dutch, Spanish, and British go to hell.

...

"The city of Colombo fortress is better than the city of Malacca!" In the spacious meeting room and restaurant of the flagship "Southeast Asia One", officers were sitting full of seats and holding military meetings.

The meeting was chaired by Mr. David, Chief of Staff, and King Yan Changwu did not attend.

Yan Changwu knows the division of labor and cooperation, knows that the division of power, Zhuge Liang who does not do anything must be done by himself, so that everyone has work and does not take care of the business.

In this way, everyone has a sense of accomplishment when they have something to do.

The combat staff reported to the military: "Ceylon's city defense has been continuously strengthened. Five years before our arrival, the city wall was raised and firepower points increased."

He showed the city defense map!

On the drawing, the deployment situation of the Colombo Fortress was clear. The combat staff explained: “The Colombo Fortress is close to the sea, and its north and west faces the sea. The east and south sides facing the land have built many protrusions forming angles. It is six meters high, the wall is wide and thick, and its sloping wall can effectively resist shelling. The dense shooting holes and the reasonable placement of the city defense gun platform double its defense."

Everyone looked at the city defense map carefully, but found it a bit tricky.

The combat staff said: "They have learned the lesson of our attack on Malacca City and built a large number of bunkers on the city to prevent us from throwing bombs."

The word "bunker" comes from the leadership of the imperial authority, and refers to a solid building used for military defense. It is mostly built with bricks, stones, reinforced concrete, etc., and is often closed.

The Southeast Army attacked the city of Malacca last time, and Hong Maofan was stunned by the bombs and grenades thrown over the city. Those Hong Maofans who had escaped in Malacca thought of the "electric cannons" that fell by their side. Trembling.

Although they are black powder bombs, they are mixed with steel ball and iron nails, um, many of them are rusty, and the damage is not small, and they can even blind the eyes, often causing the wounded to "infect" with high fever, amputation or even death.

After learning from the pain, Hong Maofan has "bunkers" all over the city to prevent gun and bomb attacks.

Listening to the introduction of the combat staff: "They also made a lot of bombs!"

When everyone heard it, it seemed that Hong Maofan also wanted to "remove his body in his own way", but that's not okay. The soldiers must be given more armor.

"Their forces are very strong. There are a thousand authentic white-skinned people, and another two thousand are Asan, West Asian Persians, Arabs and blacks. In addition, they have mobilized tens of thousands of local people!"

Hey, 13,000 people!

"Equipment is that three thousand people have muskets, all of them use flintlocks, a total of 6,000 flintlocks! They are all newly-made flintlocks, with a firing rate of over 90%, and the servants have swords and spears. There are 150 cannons in the city, 50 of which are heavy artillery over 18 pounds, and 100 light artillery.” The staff member introduced them all the way.

In the past, Hong Maofan used matchlock guns more often, and now they are all equipped with flintlock guns with a firing rate of over 90%!

Flintlock guns have actually been around for a long time. Because the technology is not good enough, the performance on the battlefield is even worse than the matchlock guns, so they have not been popularized.

Flintlocks cannot even be sold in Europe, and they are sent to Asia and Macau for "processing". They are bought for Young Master Yan and focus on manpower and technology research. Only then can Flintlocks come to the fore.

As a result, Hong Maofan got an improved flintlock, and it has a similar pattern. The style is very similar to the Chinese flintlock, and there is no copyright fee...

The staff officer continued to preach: "The current morale of the defenders is high, they are well equipped, and they have strengthened their personal protection. They have confidence in themselves and are more willing to fight. They have been preparing for war and have been preparing for war. A lot of food and gunpowder, there are wells in the city, and the city’s defenses are strong."

The officers heard it really, there was a buzz, and they discussed privately. It was indeed the most powerful enemy encountered in the current campaign!

After the combat staff introduced various pieces of information, he emphasized: "The above information is all up-to-date!"

Everyone nodded ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ They are very clear that leaders attach great importance to intelligence and are willing to spend money. The intelligence system is extremely large, and they spare no effort in collecting enemy intelligence.

Mr. David stood up and said: "Leader's instructions!"

All the officers closed their voices, solemnly, and sat up straight!

"The leader instructed us to get down to Colombo as quickly as possible, with the fastest speed and the least casualties!" Mr. David resolutely said: "I have issued a military order in front of the leader to get down to the city for seven days!"

Everyone heard, oh, it took seven months for Hong Xi official to fight Malacca City, and the city's defense is far worse than Colombo City.

We must also take down the city of Colombo with the fastest speed and the least casualties!

It seems an impossible task!
