Take the arsenal to Da Ming

Chapter 159
"Oh shit, what are they doing?"

The Dutch soldiers on the deck were very puzzled when they saw the scene of three people diving into the water. They didn't understand what the purpose of these people was.

Well, they managed to connect their small boat to the big boat, but with the impact of the waves, after a while, the small boat will be washed away by itself.

Their greatest success was to poke a few holes in the boat, stupid.

A mocking look flashed across the faces of several Dutch soldiers.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and they only felt that their heads were hit hard, and then they didn't know anything.

Almost at the same time, the entire hull tilted sharply to the right side, and the people on the deck and various supplies rolled to the starboard side like fallen gourds.

A few soldiers were holding shells and putting them into the barrel. Suddenly, dozens of pounds of shells fell out of their hands.

"Ah..." A soldier let out a miserable cry, because the shell hit his foot.

After the round shells hit his feet, they quickly rolled down the deck and ran over the body of a soldier.

There was another unlucky guy who just rolled on the starboard fender, and a 36-pound shell suddenly rolled down. Before he could react, he felt his head was hit hard.

A big iron ball weighing more than 30 kilograms rushed towards me like this. How could a person's head bear it?

Several bullet boxes turned over, and the big iron balls inside scattered in all directions, smashing the soldiers who fell on the deck and screaming, it was very miserable.

Those Dutch soldiers who stuck their heads out to watch had their heads burst open like rotten watermelons, blood and flesh splattering.

After the hull tilted to the right to a certain degree, it fell back sharply, and this process only happened in a very short period of time.

The soldiers, crew, artillery shells, etc. that rolled to the starboard side rushed to the port side quickly, some unlucky ones were crushed by the shells again, and the whole deck was in chaos.

That's not the worst part, the worst thing is that they feel the hull is going to the left side.

"Oh, my God, a big hole was blown out of our left hull, and sea water is pouring into the cabin."

"Oh, it's over, we're over."

Immediately, the ship fell into panic. It is impossible to save such a big hole.

The ship is bound to sink, the most important thing now is how to save yourself before the ship sinks.

The Portuguese ship not far away was very curious when it saw that the enemy ship that had gained the upper hand suddenly fell into chaos in the battle with them just now.

"The huge explosion just now seemed to come from them. I saw the water column produced by the explosion..."

"Look, they're starting to list. I guess someone just blew up their hull on the port side we can't see."

While talking, the captain looked carefully with the binoculars, and happened to see a small boat rescued three people who fell into the water. The people on that small boat looked at the Dutch boat together and cheered endlessly.

"Well, our mates are amazing, how did they do it."

Apparently, the captain of the Portuguese boat couldn't figure out what was going on either.

But this is not the end, but the beginning. Small boats carrying explosive packages rushed towards the Dutch ship at every turn.

Of course, there were also some small boats that died before they left, but as long as the small boats were allowed to get close and successfully detonated the explosives, even the huge Dutch boats would not be able to stand it.

After all, the power of the explosive package is too great, even a tank can't withstand the explosion at close range, let alone a wooden boat.

Jialong's flagship didn't participate in the battle, it was mainly for coordinating and commanding, and the delay in securing the victory already made him quite anxious.

Suddenly, a ship of one's own warship tilted and was sinking, which shocked him greatly.

When he was looking for the reason, as far as the field of vision of the telescope was concerned, he saw a small boat crashing into the right side of another warship, and several people quickly jumped into the sea from the small boat.

Immediately there was a loud bang, and a huge ball of fire rose up from the right side of the warship, filling the air with smoke.

It was the small boat that hit the hull that caused the explosion, and the small boat had been blown to pieces.

But the big ship was also very difficult. Jia Long could see the huge shaking of the whole ship.

It is conceivable what kind of chaos the whole ship would fall into during such a large shaking.

Jialong twisted the sleeve of the binoculars again, and after he could see more clearly, his face changed drastically and he cursed: "Oh, damn it, that ship is going to die."

The reason for saying this is that Jialong saw with his own eyes that a big hole was broken in the hull of the ship.

With such a big hole, no one can save it unless the Lord comes.

He knew why the other ship was going to sink. With such a big hole, everyone would have to sink.

"Damn it, go to the rescue."

"Send the order quickly, don't let those small boats approach, those small miscellaneous fish are more terrifying than the damn Portuguese."

However, in such a melee, there is no radio communication, how can the command transmission be so fast and convenient, whether it can be transmitted is a problem.

On the contrary, on the side of the new army, a small boat can be exchanged for a large one, and the morale is immediately boosted. Many people volunteered and applied to be driven over by themselves.

It's a good deal to fight big with small things.

For a while, the Dutch warship, who knew the threat of this small boat, retreated as if a mouse saw a cat, and fired its artillery at the same time.

Although the small boats of the new army increased casualties, they also attracted the firepower of the Dutch warships.

Claudia changed her strategy again and ordered to bombard the Dutch warship while covering the approach of the boat.

With this kind of tacit cooperation, the previous disadvantage was suddenly regained.

Some small boats also learned to be clever, and turned to the rear of the Dutch fleet, preparing to attack the troop carrier.

The flexibility and firepower of the troop carrier are less, and there are so many soldiers on it, once it is sunk, it is unimaginable.

"Bastard, stop them, stop them quickly." Jia Long roared, really scared into a cold sweat, and quickly dispatched a warship to guard.

The formation became more and more chaotic, and Garon had to give various orders to adjust the formation.

"Those idiots are all idiots." Jia Long was very dissatisfied with Zheng Jun's performance.

It is also a small boat, why the small boats of the new army can be so powerful, those idiots under Zheng Yiguan's command can't do anything.

With a bang, another warship was captured by the new army's small boat, Jia Long's scalp tingled for a while.

In a short period of time, three warships were about to be destroyed.

Only one ship had been sunk by the new army's warships before this, three were damaged, and several were damaged by the Portuguese who joined later.

But the three warships of the new army were seriously injured, and the Portuguese suffered even greater losses.

But no one thought that the destructive power caused by those small boats could not be compared with the hard work for so long.

In the field of vision, the coastline can already be seen, but this short distance is impossible to break through, let alone win the game.

Jia Long had already begun to doubt whether it was right to cooperate with Zheng Yiguan to deal with Tangning and the new army this time.

The navy of the new army, whose main force is no longer there, is so powerful. Can their army be poor?

If the infantry of the new army hadn't fallen into chaos because of Tangning's kidnapping, they would definitely be a force not to be underestimated.

Jialong could imagine that if he encountered such a terrifying blockade after landing, the final result might not be to invade Chaozhou City, but to be wiped out by the new army.

At this time, Jia Long wanted to know the real situation of Chaozhou Prefecture. If the new army did not fall into chaos, he would consider giving up and preparing to withdraw.

Obviously, no one would provide Jialong with information about the Chaozhou government at this time, and even if there was, it would be from Zheng Zhilong.

But now, Jia Long doesn't trust Zheng Yiguan much anymore.

When Jialong was in a dilemma, a scout ship sent out hurriedly returned and reported: "The navy of the new army is returning, and it will arrive in two hours at most."

Hearing the news, Jia Long's expression changed drastically, and he began to curse angrily.

Regardless of whether Zheng Yiguan was intentional or unintentional, he failed if he did not lure the new army navy to Fujian.

Now that the battle situation is so stalemate, even if the returned navy of the new army is not the main force, it is the last straw that crushes Jialong.

The situation in front of me can't be taken down. When the reinforcements from the New Army Navy arrive, the battle will be even more difficult.

It can be said that not only Garon, but the entire Dutch fleet has some shadows on the new navy's navy. After all, the last battle in the Nan'ao Sea was too miserable.
