The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 211
Zhu Hongyu also nodded slightly.

With the resurgence of wars in the southeast coast, and the Qing government's border relocation and sea ban, a large number of coastal people chose to flee the mainland.

But now for Daming, population is the most precious wealth!
Just now Zhu Hongyu was still discussing with Zheng Chenggong whether they should take the opportunity to go to the mainland to grab people.

For example, a big city like Guangzhou!
There are hundreds of thousands of residents, many of whom are skilled craftsmen or intellectuals who can read and write.

Get it and earn it! !
As for whether people are willing to follow Daming when the time comes?
Hehe, when the knife rests on the neck, they can't let them!

……

Just as the two were talking!

The Qiongzhou navy of the Qing army launched the last wave of desperate charge!
Jin Shusheng's ship, a [-]-material Dafu ship with full sails, rushed towards Zhu Hongyu and Zheng Chenggong's ship.

Material is not a unit of weight, but a unit of volume!
In conversion, one material is about 0.325 tons.

The Dafu Ship with 200 materials looks quite big, but it is actually more than [-] tons in conversion.

In future generations, it is a small speedboat, and even larger private yachts have more than this number!
The oarsmen rowed hard, and Jin Shusheng's ship quickly came towards Zhu Hongyu and Zheng Chenggong.

The expression on Zhu Hongyu's face remained unchanged, and he did not panic at all.

Zheng Chenggong ordered in an orderly manner.

"Heavy artillery is ready, focus on sinking the flagship of the Qing army!"

"beat!"

In an instant, Ming army warships were ready for battle.

The muzzle of the black hole aimed at the flagship of the Qing army!

boom!Boom!

The sound of violent shelling rang out one after another, and shells fell towards the flagship of the Qing army where Jin Shusheng was.

Click!Click!
This is the sound of a solid shell hitting the side of the Qing flagship.

The flagship of the Qing army is a big blessing ship of [-] materials, which is definitely not big compared with the sailing battleships of the Ming army.

But compared with other warships in the navy of the Qing army, it can also be called strong and powerful.

At least the ability to withstand shelling is much better!
If the artillery of the Ming army hits other warships of the Qing army, as long as it hits, it can be severely damaged or even directly destroyed with one shot.

The artillery of the Ming army hit the flagship of the Qing army, but it was a bit useless!

The shells fired by the Ming army's ten-jin and twenty-jin cannons slammed on the side of the Qing army's ship.

The huge kinetic energy shook the flagship of the Qing army to one side, but it was a pity that the shells failed to penetrate the side panels of the Qing army.

Instead, the kinetic energy was exhausted, and it was inlaid on the side of the Qing army's ship!
Countless artillery salvos fired at the flagship of the Qing army!
The sound of shelling almost covered everything, and the entire sea was filled with gunpowder smoke.

The shells fell into the sea water around the flagship of the Qing army, splashing tall water columns, and the water vapor filled the air.

The terrifying kinetic energy of the shells caused waves on the sea to swell, and the flagship of the Qing army kept shaking left and right.

Jin Shusheng's loud cry was covered by the rumble of shelling.

Every moment, shells hit the warship under his feet non-stop!
Although not every shell can break the defense and cause actual damage to the Qing army!

But there are too many heavy artillery aimed at him, so he can't hold it!

"fight back!"

"fight back!"

"fight back!"

"..."

Jin Shusheng still shouted loudly, and the artillery on the Qing army warships also kept roaring.

From time to time, shells hit the warships of the Ming army!
It's just that the effect is really small and pitiful!
The heavy artillery on the warships of the Ming army could not hit the flagship of the Qing army, and the artillery of the navy of the Qing army, of course, could not hit the sailing battleships of the Ming army.

Jin Shusheng looked at the scene in front of him, almost desperate, but he was still unwilling to give up.

"Rush forward, advance at full speed, and sink the pirate!"

"Hurry up!"

Jin Shusheng's complexion turned red with excitement, and the whites of his eyes were bloodshot.

Seeing his ship getting closer and closer to the flagship of the Ming Army Navy, he felt a feeling that he was about to make a great achievement today.

If he can sink Zheng Chenggong's ship today, or even kill Zheng Chenggong, then his achievements today can be regarded as the first extraordinary achievements of the Kangxi Dynasty!
It is not a problem to be named a marquis and worship a prime minister. Even if he died at sea today, the court will not treat his family members badly.

Of course, the reason why he has such an idea is because he still doesn't know about Wang Fuchen beheading Yongli...

That's the real number one miracle of the Kangxi Dynasty!

Although this extraordinary achievement, Wang Fuchen himself said that he didn't really want it!

……

Zheng Chenggong saw the flagship of the Qing army coming towards him, turned around and said to Zhu Hongyu.

"The thieves are very ferocious, and they are afraid of disturbing the holy car, please take refuge temporarily, His Highness Jian Guo!"

Zhu Hongyu waved his hand and said.

"No need!"

"You must stand with the soldiers and face the enemy side by side!"

"Furthermore, with so many loyal and brave men guarding him, what danger does Gu Neng have?"

Zhu Hongyu's words were full of absolute trust in the soldiers. The soldiers of the Ming Army who heard these words, whether it was the Guangfu Army or the Zheng Army, showed excited expressions on their faces.

A kind of pride to support Yulong to die for the king surged in their chests!
Zheng Chenggong heard the words and said.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, even if the soldiers fight to the death, they will not let Qinglu disturb Shengjia!"

Having said all this, he went to continue commanding the battle.

"Command gunner, use all flowering ammunition instead, don't be afraid to waste it, beat me to death!"

"promise!"

The messenger promised, and the flagship of the Ming fleet played the corresponding semaphore.

All the artillery aimed at the flagship of the Qing army were changed from solid bullets to blooming bullets!

boom!Boom boom boom!
The sound of the cannon continued, and shells spewed out from the muzzle.

The gunpowder smoke was mixed with the flames, and long strips of flowering bombs fell towards the warships of the Qing army.

A flowering bomb directly hit the hull of the Qing army warship, and the warhead was embedded in the side of the ship.

As the fuse burns out, the gunpowder charge in the shell's warhead is ignited.

It exploded with a bang!

Fragments and flames swept around, tearing apart the sides of Qing warships.

boom!Boom!

Cannonballs rained down on the warships of the Qing army.

The deck, the side, the mast... There are scorched black traces left after the explosion everywhere.

One after another corpses were torn apart, and the colorful viscera almost covered the entire deck!
The heavy artillery of the Ming army concentrated fire again!
Amidst the roar, Jin Shusheng was submerged in the flames.

His ship first broke its mast and collapsed, then its side was torn apart and began to take in water.

The hull began to sink slowly, completely losing its fighting power!

The flagship was simply destroyed, and the Qiongzhou navy of the Qing army felt panic from the bottom of their hearts.

A wave of despair arises spontaneously!

Fu Haishan sat slumped on the deck, looking at the slowly sinking flagship, and the giant ships of the Ming army that were as big as hills, and the oppressive feeling brought by the heavy artillery.

His crotch was hot and humid again!
"Hang... hang the white flag, hang the white flag!"

"We surrender!"

Fu Haishan completely lost the courage to fight, and roared at the top of his voice.

The sailors were in a hurry to operate, and the Qing army's arson ship, which was bombarded by heavy artillery and was extremely dilapidated, finally hoisted the white flag.
