Chapter 270: The biggest benefit of this battle is to win people's hearts
This battle started off the coast of Batavia. Standing high in Batavia, people can see clearly with binoculars. Looking at the naval battlefield under the sky of smoke, the more they look, the more surprised they are!
Mingren’s battleship is bigger than ours! faster!
Especially those novel warships are eye-opening. It turns out that the Governor-sama’s ship was also learned from others (streamlined)!
Mingren’s combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated!
They are actually on a par with the Dutch, the Dutch continue to flee in embarrassment with boats, but the Ming is more and more brave!
Everyone's thoughts are rushing together, and some Dutch people look at the Chinese with complex emotions: they are going to guard the sky!
can work diligently, have outstanding results, and be able to fight wars. What else can't Chinese people do in this world?
The indigenous people are extremely jealous and feel that their status is even more precarious.
In the design of the division of labor in the Western colonies, the Chinese were responsible for the work, while the natives were helpers and clerks, and served as attendants for the whites. They could join the army and fight battles. For example, many natives were in the fleet of this naval battle. .
Everyone says that the Chinese are weak and don’t know how to fight. This Chinese fleet from afar teaches everyone a solid lesson!
White people are just that!
Chinese can definitely fight!
The Su family and his son are the only Chinese representatives who mixed with the Dutch to watch the battle. They all used binoculars to follow up the battle throughout the whole process, watching with gusto!
Su Minggang remained calm, his young son Su Xingzhao showed a little excitement, of course, he didn't dare to be overjoyed, at least he walked a lot lighter.
And their demeanor of action is in the eyes of the indigenous leader Capate!
Although Kapat was born fat (it seems that the aboriginal leaders are all made out of a mold), but his eyes are cold and his temperament is like a poisonous snake. As a native chief who submits to the Dutch, he is very jealous of the Su family and his son, and has repeatedly asked him to lead the Chinese!
There are many benefits to dominate the Chinese, at least the oil and water are exceptionally rich-----no project, no gain.
But how dare the white people let the indigenous people work? It’s not that they haven’t tried it. These brown guys from the tropical rainforest are so lazy and surprisingly lazy. Let them work. As long as they don’t have oversight, what’s the beginning of the day’s work? It’s still the same; it’s stupid. The Chinese learned the technical skills once, but the indigenous people did it more than a dozen times and still couldn’t. Even if they met today, they still won’t the next day. They are still greedy, the Chinese are very honest, and the indigenous people only need You steal things whenever you get the chance, and you can't believe them at all.
Unable to get his wish, Karpat stared at the Su family and his son, waiting for them to make a mistake, but the two father and son were cautious, and so far he has not let Karpat caught the problem.
……
On the open deck of Nanhai No.1, the captains of the regular ships gathered for a big meal after the war.
This war is over. Although there is still gunpowder on the supply ship, there are too many monks and porridge, and it doesn't count. The key is that Governor Yan lacks confidence in winning.
The Dutch are also very powerful. Although the Southeast Army is rich in water, fire and wood, but the old experience of eating salt more than eating bread has prevented the Southeast Army from overwhelmingly winning. In case it is overwhelming, even the supply of gunpowder can be used. No, you can't give it to other foreign devils, such as the Spanish taking advantage of the fire, or catching up with the Dutch. Who can tell, after all, Fengshen is not its own, let's withdraw!
Although it was to no avail to retreat, there was no frustration.
According to the statistics, there are 321 soldiers killed in battle and 117 disabled. The main reason is that everyone’s deerskin protective gear and iron helmet played a certain protective role, plus shields, Because the medical staff on board is pretty good, as long as they don’t die, there is a great survival rate.
Not a single battleship was sunk! Of course, this has something to do with the short fighting time. If you continue to fight, you may sink some warships.
In such a big battle, the veteran maritime power is being fought again. Yan Changwu said that a tie is a victory, and we have won!
Do we have no heroes in this battle? No, every officer and soldier in the battle is a hero!
"Although we did not achieve major results, we achieved the goal of training troops. More importantly, we verified that we can fight against any maritime power. The greatest benefit of this battle is to win the hearts and minds of the people!" Yan Changwu gave his final word, and everyone ate and drank on the deck to celebrate. victory.
Siresma turned around, and Yan Changwu was taken aback. He first asked him about his injury, saying it was just a bruise (Siresma didn’t slap his blood vessels and bones so stupidly), and asked him where he came from. The elders said: "Storm discovered the problem of excessive gunpowder consumption, so I ordered the retreat."
When he said that the gongs and flags were not backed up, everyone was shocked.
If Siresma had not been conscious and had sent out the signal, it would be possible that everyone would be fainted, and even the boss would have run away.
In a mess, you will lose if you are unbeaten!
Then Yan Changwu thanked Li Ying again. He sent the signal immediately after Siresma sent the signal, so that everyone was no longer confused and made everyone retreat smoothly.
Li Ying screamed ashamed, if he was not very familiar with these foreigners, he would not dare to follow up.
He knows that these foreigners who have betrayed the Netherlands are deliberately thinking about returning home gracefully, making people afraid to slaughter their backs, and Young Master Yan is the one who can realize this dream for them, helping foreigners. Everyone spares no effort.
In this war, these foreigners most hope that Yan Dashao will win. This proves that they are right!
That's why Li Yingli supported Siresma. He was really clever.
……
As for the deputy captain Lu Xiao who did not obey the military order, he should be cut according to the law!
Others don't have to say it, but Gan Hui, who is Guan Junling, has to say it. When he says it, everyone is in awe.
Take an example, otherwise, everyone will have an excuse for disobeying orders!
Siresma interceded for him: "Lu is a very good officer. He is my deputy captain. He has never disobeyed orders before. The execution of orders has been resolutely completed!"
"At that time, relying on my words, I didn't see the flag on the flagship or heard the gong. He was worried. I fully understand!
So I didn’t argue with him. I tried to convince him. The good news is that, Mazu’s blessing, he convinced me and executed my order~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This is just a dispute, no effect In the overall situation, I hope he will still be my deputy captain! "
"Also, in terms of personal emotions, he is an officer I trained, which is equivalent to my student. I have spent a lot of effort and the Navy has also spent a lot of investment. I hope to give him a chance!"
Look, the more talking foreign devils, they have further integrated into the southeast government officer corps, and the two sides have cooperated seamlessly.
Everyone looked at Yan Changhu and heard him say: "Military orders must be implemented, and they should be severely punished according to the law. I support Deputy Chief of Staff Gan!
But considering that he was sincerely thinking about our army, and the situation at the time was really unknown, and no major consequences were caused in the end, so I used the supreme commander's power of pardon to pardon him! "
Lu Xiao is guilty, but being pardoned by the commander-in-chief is the best way to deal with it.
The actual job is retained, the rank is lowered, the bonus is deducted, and the study is done. Of course it is not right to violate the order. Here is the key point that he is a strong supporter of Yan Dashao, and his loyalty allowed him to escape.
For the upper class, loyalty ranks first!
……
Everyone had dinner, returned to their warship, commanded the warship to retreat north overnight, and embarked on the way home.
From Taiwan to Batavia, the sailing boat is only sailing, and the wind is smooth. It may take a month, but now it is even more difficult with headwinds.
So CEO Chen Zhongji thinks it is an expedition of labor, not without reason, but Yan Changwu thinks that the battle is worth it!
They passed by Luzon, because the warship was damaged, which hindered the city's appearance. They did not visit Manila, but they were shocked by the Spanish.
When they heard that these Ming people drew with the Dutch, the Spaniards had a better understanding of the strength of the Ming people, and the Chinese in Manila yearned for the Southeastern more...
