"Rouen is dead...... Is Rouen dead? ”

Ankos muttered a few words, and his head, which was a little blurred by the shell, slowly came to his senses.

By the way, there's a war going on right now. He turned his head to look, and only a few meters away from him, Lieutenant Colonel Rouen was lying there with his mutilated body twisted, his bloody mouth wide open, as if to express the surprise in his heart, why the victory that was so easy to achieve was reversed in an instant, and even his own life was lost.

"Your Excellency Major, what should we do now?" Seeing that Angos still looked lost and depressed, the officer couldn't help but be anxious and raised his voice again.

"What should I do?"

Ankos looked at the Ming warships on the opposite side and kept bombarding their warships with cannonballs at a distance almost close to each other, and the dense projectiles continued to fall like raindrops, and from time to time there were sailors screaming and falling on the deck, although their two warships were also struggling to fight back, but because the Dutch warships were not as many as the Ming warships in terms of tonnage and number of guns.

Shelling at such a distance is no longer a test of the sailors' skills or experience, firing at each other at such a close distance is the comparison of who has more artillery, whose warship is stronger, who fires faster, who is more afraid of death, and everything else is empty, and the Dutch have no way to compare with the Ming people in this regard.

The warships of the Ming people were much stronger than the Dutch in terms of the tonnage of the warships and the number of guns, so the Dutch had enough of suffering, only to see that after a burst of cannons, the two battleships of the Dutch were full of dense holes.

"Your Excellency Major, we can't wait any longer, the firepower of the Ming people is too fierce, and we won't be able to leave if we don't evacuate!"

The officer standing beside Ankos was about to go crazy, seeing that the battleship was hit by a few more shells, but after the death of Lieutenant Colonel Rouen, the only officer who had the right to command the battle was so frightened that he could not speak, which made him feel like he was going crazy, and he also secretly made up his mind that if Ankos continued to be so confused, he would take over the command of the whole ship, otherwise he would die if he continued like this.

But as soon as this thought came to his mind, Ancos spoke, and he asked, "Are you the second mate of this warship?" ”

"Yes, Your Excellency Major!"

"What's your name?"

"My name is Neham, Lieutenant Neam Biddle!"

"Okay, Lieutenant Neham." Ankos finally came to his senses, and he said without thinking: "You immediately raise the white flag and tell the Ming people on the opposite side that we surrender!" ”

"What...... Surrender? Lieutenant Neam was stunned for a moment, he never dreamed that the first order after Encos took over the command was to order surrender, and the great Royal Dutch Navy would surrender to the natives of the East?

"Mr. Major, are you sure you want to raise the white flag?"

"How...... Do you doubt my commands? Feeling that his authority was being questioned, Onkos's face became ugly, and he said word by word: "Lieutenant Neham, if you have any doubts about my order, I can choose to relinquish the command and thus pass it over to you, and now you are willing to take the command?" ”

"No...... No, I never doubted your command, you must have misunderstood. ”

This time it was Lieutenant Neham's turn to turn dark, as long as it wasn't someone with a problem with IQ, he knew what a predicament they were in now, the three warships of the Ming people were now pressing the Flying and the Pony to the ground and beating them hard, and their return fire was more like a girl who had encountered a mob, and there was no room for resistance.

It would be a fool if he took over the command now, not to mention how serious the mistake and taboo it was to skip the command and snatch the command from the hands of his superiors without authorization, even if Young Man Oncos willingly handed over the command to him, he would not dare to take it, because once he took over the command, unless he had the determination to die, the consequences of the defeat in this battle would be transferred from Major Oncos to him, and this kind of active behavior would only be done by a fool.

As a consequence of Lieutenant Neham's retreat, a white flag was quickly raised on the mainmast of the Flying, and the two Dutch warships stopped firing back.

"Your Excellency...... My lord, the Dutch have surrendered! ”

When he saw the white flag raised by the Feixiang for the first time, Lu Guangbiao's first feeling was that this was a conspiracy of the Dutch, but then he saw that the two Dutch warships stopped firing back one after another, and then listened to the cheers of the sailors in his ears, and he was sure that he was not dazzled.

"My lord, the Dutch have surrendered, what shall we do?" The first officer, who was already dancing excitedly, fortunately did not forget his duties, and hurriedly asked Lu Guangbiao.

Lu Guangbiao pondered for a while and then ordered: "Suspend the shelling, immediately give them flags, and let their commanders come over." ”

Soon, a lifeboat rowed towards the Qingyuan, and an officer wearing a blue military uniform and carrying a saber at his waist climbed onto the deck of the Qingyuan surrounded by two Dutch sailors.

The reason why he was able to find the owner so quickly was not only because Lu Guangbiao was surrounded by more than a dozen sailors with loaded guns, but also because he was the head of this group of people from both the military uniform and his temperament.

I saw this officer walk up to Lu Guangbiao, salute and say loudly: "The Governor of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Governor Steve, and the special envoy of Governor Stephen Cos have seen Your Excellency the Commander of the Ming Kingdom!" ”

Note: Here is a special time, the full name of the Netherlands is "Kingdom of the Netherlands", "Netherlands" is called the Netherlands in Germanic language, which means "country of the Low Countries", and the Netherlands is only one of the largest provinces of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, so ancient China was called "Netherlands", and the title has been used to this day.

As a naval commander, Lu Guangbiao naturally wanted to keep abreast of the situation of the surrounding forces of the Ming Dynasty, and he naturally sent people to collect information about the Dutch, and naturally understood that the major mentioned by Ancos was a military rank in the countries around Obarona, which was equivalent to the deputy general manager or general manager of the Ming Dynasty. What surprised Lu Guangbiao the most was that although the Dutch soldier's accent was strange, he actually spoke the official dialect of the Ming Dynasty, which really surprised him.

He nodded and said in a deep voice: "This official is Lu Guangbiao, the governor of Fujian Province in the Ming Dynasty and the admiral of the Fujian Navy Division, Major Ancos, what are you doing here this time?" ”

Listening to Lu Guangbiao's words, Ang Kesi only felt a fever on his face and was also a little surprised, he didn't expect that the person opposite was actually the governor of a province and the admiral of the navy, this official position was quite large.

Originally, he was still a little angry in his heart, he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Excellency, I came this time to hope...... We hope that you will accept our surrender and guarantee the safety of our lives and property. ”
