Chapter 813: Might

On the three-masted gunboat, the commander was not Qiao Yifeng, the commander of Guanghaiwei, but Shen Jun, the captain of the guard under the command of the United Shang Group.

Shen Jun is twenty years old, born with thick eyebrows and big eyes, not very tall, but very sturdy, inheriting the courage of his father Shen Liuye, and is a very bloody man.

When he saw the Spanish warship that suddenly appeared on the surface of the sea just now, he already wanted to show it well, so he immediately gave the order to prepare for battle.

But it was not that he wanted to overstep his authority, but before this voyage, Lin Haoran gave a very clear order: whenever he encountered a Spanish sailing ship, he could eat it, and regarded the Spaniards as the number one enemy.

Although he didn't understand the true intent of Lord Lin's instructions, he believed that Lord Lin was definitely not wrong. United financial businessmen started from scratch and became the largest business group in the Liangguang region, all of which is undoubtedly the credit of Lin Daren.

In the face of this sudden appearance of the Spanish warship, he did not feel the slightest fear, and only thought about how to annihilate this sailing ship that took the initiative to send to the door.

At first, he didn't use the Tiger Cannon, worried that the little fish sent to the door would turn around and run away. After all, the Spanish sailing ships were first-class in terms of speed, and this three-masted gunboat might not be able to catch up.

It was precisely in this way that he deliberately made the opponent feel underestimated, and when the opponent went fishing, he ordered a fierce attack to bite the Spanish sailing ship to pieces.

"Light the fire, put it again!"

Shen Jun saw that the little fish had no way to escape, so he chose to use the four tiger cannons to bombard. Not to mention that this was just a small Spanish galleon, even if it was the kind of Spanish galleon wrapped in iron sheets, he was confident that the hull would be sunk.

Bang!

Tongues of fire erupted from the swarthy muzzles, and shells weighing as much as fifteen pounds flew towards the Caravel galleon, splashing columns of water. The Caravel sailing ship is a transoceanic sailing ship that pursues lightness, and it is naturally inferior in terms of defensive capabilities, and there is no iron sheet in the bow.

Bang!

The planks of the Caravel sailboat rotted under the waterline, and a large amount of seawater immediately poured into the cabin. Although the hull continued to move forward, it slowed down markedly, and was noticeably tilting slightly to one side.

How so!

When José learned of the situation, he was also stunned.

Even in the last second, he didn't pay attention to these barbarians who were not fully civilized, but reality gave him a resounding slap in the face, and the opponent's heavy artillery was far more powerful than he imagined.

Both Captain Jose and the sailors at the bottom were already panicking at this time.

"Row!"

José grasped the bow of the ship in one hand as he continued to give instructions. But the Southeast Asians, who had been forced to serve as sailors, escaped from their cabins, and some Spaniards fled for their lives, and the ship became a pot of porridge.

Thump!

The crew fled the water, trying to escape from here. Once the hull sinks, it will be accompanied by a large whirlpool that can easily sweep people to the bottom of the sea, thus becoming fodder for marine fish.

This......

Suleiman and the prince's retainers walked to the dock and looked at everything in shock.

The Spaniards, who seemed to them to be almost invincible, were powerless to fight the Ming warship, and the hull was slowly sinking in front of them. What shocked them the most was that Daming's heavy artillery was too incredible.

Who would have resisted the shelling if it had been fired not at the Spanish sailing ships, but directly towards their Manila?

Suleiman turned his head to look at the cute little girl next to him, and his hanging heart finally let go gently. Although this Ming Dynasty is extremely powerful and is the suzerainty of the Nanyang countries, it is also a ceremonial state, and it has always treated them with courtesy.

He made up his mind that he planned to continue the tribute next year and form a friendship with the powerful and wealthy Ming for a hundred years.

On the surface of the sea, there is a scene of human vulnerability.

The 20-metre-long Caravel sank to one side, and the crew members who didn't have time to swim away were swept into the whirlpool, and many of them died in the sea.

José and more than a dozen of his subordinates tried to escape in a small boat, but where could they escape, they were escorted directly to the docks.

I don't know if the beautiful iron helmet fell off, or was taken by the soldiers who escorted him, and the whole person looked like a cloaked hair and shouted: "You barbarians, let me go quickly!" Otherwise, my fleet will come, and I will destroy you and level this place!" ”

Suleiman could vaguely understand his words, and his brows couldn't help frowning slightly. Compared with the Ming people from the country of etiquette, these Spaniards are really like devils, and they will be miserable at every turn.

Chen Zhixiao seemed to have no intention of taking the imperial examination, like a think tank-like existence, and suddenly walked up to Qiao Yifeng and muttered a few words, Qiao Yifeng's eyes lit up, but it was rare to borrow two soldiers from Suleiman amicably.

"Absolutely!" Su Laiman was afraid of Qiao Yifeng, and immediately nodded in response.

Qiao Yifeng pointed to two guards holding big swords, and after the guard got the nod from the leader, he followed the Ming general and strode towards the prisoner.

These two guards were the elite of Luzon, and when they understood that Qiao Yifeng wanted them to deal with these captives, they waved their knives and cut off the heads of these people without opening their eyes, and one of the heads rolled in front of Jose, who was still shouting.

José looked at the head that had rolled in front of him, and watched as his most loyal men were executed like this, and finally fell silent.

While Caravel doesn't represent his true strength, it's a fact that it's in the hands of these guys. If he continues to shout and really anger these people, what awaits him may be the end of his life.

Hey?

Yan Yi watched Qiao Yifeng execute these Spaniards with their soldiers, but he just kept Jose's life, and always felt that something was faintly wrong.

"Honorable envoy, smooth sailing!"

Suleiman led the prince and the auxiliary ministers to wave goodbye in unison, and saw off Hu Niu and the others. After witnessing the strength of the Ming people, their attitude was obviously much more humble, standing on the dock and watching the fleet leave.

The fleet set sail again, slowly leaving Manila Bay and re-entering the vast seas of the South Sea.

This time, their fleet was visiting under the banner of "Pursuit of the West", but not only to Luzon, but also to some countries in the South Seas, and the next stop would be Sulu.

Although Suleiman agreed to join the "Coalition for the West", when Yang Chunlai, the representative of the United Business Group, tentatively offered to rent a large piece of land to grow cotton, Suleiman did not readily agree, and received a reply after a few days of consideration, as he had done last time.

Considering the reply in a few days, there are undoubtedly many possibilities. Or, as in the previous invitation to the "Coalition for the West", Suleiman considered it for a few days and came up with a definite answer, but perhaps a rejection.

It's just that the plan of this Luzon plantation is related to the construction of the industrial chain of the joint workshop, and it is also related to whether it can take a little foundation here in Nanyang, so everyone is not too excited to leave Manila Bay.
