Ming Zuo

Chapter 686

The Snotendieck's mast was broken and she lost her speed completely.

Mrs. Zheng cheered from top to bottom, and the boats they drove rushed towards the Snowdendick.

Zuo Hua also raised his arms and shouted.

"dash forward."

Some staff members objected.

"Minister, we don't need to take action in this kind of boarding battle, do we?"

Zuo Hua looked over tentatively.

"Can you guarantee that we won't fight boarding battles in the future?"

"This……"

When the staff officer was questioned, his face was hot.

Zuo Hua said to everyone: "The ready-made opportunity to learn how to fight on board, if you miss it today, we will have to use our own blood as tuition fees in the future. How about it, have you figured it out?"

The reason is very simple, the staff immediately realized their mistake.

They drove a ship and rushed towards the Snowdendick with Zheng's fleet.

Even without speed, the Snowdendick was still firing tenaciously, trying to prevent Zheng from boarding the ship.

It's a pity that their resistance has little effect.

Zheng's men and horses approached the Snowdendick from both sides of the bow and stern, and began to climb like a colony of ants.

The Dutch above resisted desperately and defeated the officers and men of the Zheng family twice in a row.

Just at this time, Zuo Hua's boat arrived.

He found a diagonal angle and cut into the blind corner of the Dutch gun.

Taking advantage of the strength of the Dutch to resist Zheng, Zuo Hua led his staff to swarm up.

"There are enemies here!"

A Dutch general exclaimed, and at the same time he held a Western sword and killed him.

Zuo Hua split the opponent's weapon with a knife, ignoring him at all, but went to kill another Dutch soldier who was not prepared enough.

The Dutch officer whose weapon had been swung away wanted to attack again, but the staff officer who was close behind Zuo Hua stabbed his machete into his stomach like a poisonous snake.

The Dutch officer died with regret.

It was completely unexpected that these Ming people would also play cooperative combat on the narrow boat.

Because of the backstabs of Zuo Hua and others, the resistance of the Dutch completely collapsed, and Zheng's men also stood still on the boat.

Boarding battles are always messy.

Zuo Hua didn't care, and went straight to the captain's room.

When I rushed inside, I found that there was no one there.

Zuo Hua was overjoyed, and immediately started packing the Dutchman's things in the room.

Maps, books, notes, etc., he will not let go of any materials with text.

At this moment, a big man also rushed in.

Seeing what Zuo Hua did, the other party yelled.

"what are you doing?"

The visitor, Zuo Hua, knew him.

"It turned out to be Brother Yu, you are one step late, the spoils here belong to me."

"Bastard, did you eat the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard?"

The opponent roared violently and rushed forward to snatch it.

Zuo Hua took a step back slightly, with the horizontal knife in front, and his expression changed.

"Zheng Cai, according to the rules at sea, whoever grabs the booty will own it. Why, do you want to try my knife?"

The person who came was Zheng Zhilong's son Zheng Cai.

It was the first time he had seen someone dare to snatch something from Zheng's hands.

"Hmph, do you think you can get out of here?"

Zuo Hua smiled lightly.

"Then you have to ask your father, how do you plan to get along with me in Shandong?"

Zheng Cai's face changed, and she didn't dare to make a move.

It happened that Hong Xu also ran in, saw the confrontation between the two sides, and saw the things in Zuo Hua's hands, and immediately understood what was going on.

"Grand Yu, what are you still doing, General Zuo can take all the spoils here?"

This sentence reminded Zheng Cai that he acted quickly and swept away all the property that could be seen.

As for his actions, Zuo Hua was indifferent on the surface, but sneered in his heart.

These short-sighted pirates value property more than anything else.

In fact, the most valuable things in the hands of the Dutch are these charts, books and notes.

Because the Dutch have traveled all over the world, they have already mastered the entire sea route and information around the world.

Getting these things from the Dutch is an endless treasure.

Zheng Cai looted a lot of property from the captain's room, and the hostility towards Zuo Hua also dissipated a lot.

At this time, the fighting outside has subsided.

Seeing more and more Ming people rushing onto the warship, the Dutch on the Snotendieck knew that resistance was meaningless.

They put down their weapons and became Zheng's captives.

On the other side of the sea, the Willingen finally couldn't withstand the siege of Zheng's.

Under the eyes of everyone, the hull made a loud cracking noise, then broke into several pieces, and began to sink toward the depths of the sea.

Until now, Zheng Zhilong was full of doubts.

Where did the main force of the Dutch go?

Little did he know that Hans Putmans was in serious trouble.

According to Hans Putmans' plan, he used three warships to drag Zheng's, and then led the main force to drive out of Liuluo Bay. He could have taken a long way around and outflanked Zheng's back.

As long as the Dutch warships have a wide water area and cannot be besieged by Zheng's fireboats, it is still easy to deal with these eastern blessing ships.

But as soon as he left Liuluo Bay, Hans Putmans had to sigh with emotion.

It turns out that the storm has already been generated outside the bay.

Under the gust of wind, the monstrous huge waves blew the Dutch warships to pieces, and there was no way to sail against the wind.

Seeing the situation like this, Hans Putmans knew that this battle was hopeless.

"Turn around and withdraw the officers."

In this naval battle, the weather, location, and people were not on the side of the Dutch.

They have lost the courage to fight, and retreat has become the only option.

Even so, bad luck still did not leave the Dutchman.

On the way back to Taiwan, two more Dutch warships ran aground and had to be abandoned.

After this battle, the military strength of the Dutch in Taiwan was greatly weakened, and they could no longer compete with Zheng Zhilong.

At this time in Liuluo Bay, with the failure of three Dutch warships, Liu Xiang also ushered in his doomsday.

There is not much difference between Liu Xiang's boat and Zheng Zhilong's boat, or even slightly worse.

But the difference in firepower is nothing but heaven and earth, and there is no way to make up for it.

After solving the Dutchman, Zheng Zhilong concentrated all his strength and turned around to help Zheng Zhihu.

Liu Xiang's boat has no ability to resist the bronze cannon at all, almost one cannon one at a time.

Soon, the surface of the sea was full of debris from Liu Xiang's warship.

Countless pirates flopped in the sea, howling desperately, begging to surrender, just to survive.

Seeing the battle like this, Liu Xiang wanted to vomit blood.

He knew he had lost all his money.

But seeing Zheng Zhilong going forward bravely and vowing not to give up, he was also terrified.

Liu Xiang didn't dare to continue fighting at all, so he could only run away.

Seeing the boss run away, the other pirates also completely lost their courage, wishing they could carry the boat and run away.

When it was completely dawn, the calm in Liuluowan was restored.

More than [-] ships under Liu Xiang's command were sunk, and they could no longer pose a threat to Zheng Zhilong.

In the sea ahead, only Zheng Zhilong will chase after him to win.
