Chapter 150: Captain, What Shall We Do?

As soon as the Dutch firecrackers opened fire on the stern of the ship, the Ming natives at the bow of the ship rushed up.

These Ming natives were not the same as they had seen before, each of them had a shining breastplate. He also wore a helmet with a mask on his head, and there was only a thin slit on the mask that showed two cold rays of light.

Armed with steel swords and shields, they roared at the firecrackers, and the panicked Dutchmen hurriedly parried with their firearms. But they overestimated their battles, and suffered a big loss as soon as they fought against these Ming natives.

Lan Guitian slashed at a red-haired Xiyi man, who raised his fire gun with both hands to parry. Lan Guitian's knife intersected with the fire hammer and sent out a series of sparks, but his movements did not stop.

Raise your right foot without making a difference with a single sword, and kick the enemy in front of you in one fell swoop. Then he swung his knife and slashed at the other firecracker, who was unguarded and slashed him in the arm.

An arm flew up in the air along with the fire gun above, Lan Guitian did not stop, raised his knife and slashed into the hands of the Dutch fire gun.

The other four Changxing Army soldiers also showed no weakness, picked up their steel knives and followed Lan Guitian towards the firefighters.

For a moment, the sword flashed and the flesh and blood flew, and the muffled snorts, screams, and exclamations of people were endless, and the entire deck was in chaos.

The Dutch musketeers were attacked by the Changxing Army and scurried around like frightened rabbits. The firecrackers in their hands are not as good as the burning sticks in melee combat, and they have no ability to fight back except for being killed.

On the contrary, it was the sailors of the Heerenveen who wielded their axes and crossed swords to fight with the Changxing army, although they had no armor on their bodies to defend themselves. But they were not afraid of death, and their bodies were strong enough to block Lan Guitian's attack for a while.

The panic of the musketeers gave the stern Changxing army an opportunity, and they climbed the Helenveen as a round of grenades, and then also carried steel knives and shields to the deck.

The Dutch were caught in the middle of the deck by the Changxing army, and fought very hard. Even the firecrackers threw away their useless firearms and drew their short blades from their waists to join the warband.

With the harassment and plundering of the Francois merchant ships by the Dutch over the years, if they fall into the hands of the Francos, they will definitely have to suffer a lot. These people who could come to the East to venture were also outlaws, and they burst out with unparalleled courage to engage in a brutal white-knuckle battle against the Changxing army.

Lawrence also drew his sword at his waist and joined the warband, knowing that if he was defeated by both sides, it was only a matter of time, and he couldn't go on like this.

"Kill the natives at the bow of the ship first!" Lawrence roared and took the lead in killing the Changxing army at the bow of the ship.

Lan Guitian's slash was blocked by the Dutch sailors with a short axe, and the opponent picked up the short axe and slashed at Lan Guitian. He dodged and stabbed the sailor in the abdomen.

The Dutch sailor roared, threw away the short axe in his hand, and grabbed Lan Guitian's hand with both hands, no matter how hard Lan Guitian tried, he couldn't pull out the steel knife.

I saw that the sailor was bleeding from the corner of his mouth and his eyes were fierce. Open your mouth and yell: "Let's die together!" He pushed Lan Guitian towards the side of the boat.

Although Lan Guitian didn't know what this sailor was roaring, he knew the intentions of this Xiyi man. He tried hard to break free from the sailor's hands, but he tried several times in a row without success.

The tall and tall Dutch had an absolute advantage over the body of the Oriental people of Lan Guitian, and he pushed Lan Guitian and crashed into the side of the ship.

Lan Guitian rolled and fell into the sea with this sailor, and as soon as he fell into the sea, Lan Guitian quickly took off his helmet and quickly took off his breastplate.

Without these two heavy armors, he finally stopped sinking and swam towards the sea. As his head showed the surface of the sea, he took a deep breath, followed by a violent cough.

The hasty entry had choked him on a few mouthfuls of water, and he was about to swim to the Heerenveen when he felt himself being held from behind.

Lan Guitian, who was panicked, looked back and saw that it was the sailor who fell into the sea with him. This Dutch man had red eyes, and he didn't care about the steel knife stuck in his body, and grabbed Lan Guitian's body with both hands, and held him into the sea.

The two of them kept rolling in the sea, and after a while they sank into the sea. During the fight, Lan Guitian finally grabbed the hilt of the knife, and with a strong pull, the steel knife was pulled out by him at the Dutch sailor.

Blood poured out of the wounds, and the Dutch sailors were like frightened balloons. His body softened little by little, Lan Guitian wiped the knife on the sailor's neck, and a red cloud appeared in the seawater. The Dutch sailor's eyes widened, and his body slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.

Exhausted, Lan Guitian struggled to swim onto the bird boat that had fallen apart, and he sat on the deck full of seawater and gasped for breath. The short fight in the sea just now almost consumed all the strength in his body.

Now that the Xiyi plywood ship had stopped firing its cannons, the gunners had taken up arms and joined the white-knuckle battle. Two bird boats in the distance also approached, and this boat had been booked by the Changxing Army.

It was the Heerenveen in this state that Domingo saw, looking at the stationary ships and the Changxing army with their chrysalis. Domingo knew that the Heerenveen was finished, and so were the one hundred and twenty-six sailors on it.

He couldn't let this situation continue, he gritted his teeth and ordered loudly: "Hang out the flag and retreat!" The last two words, he almost squeezed out between his teeth. It was the greatest shame of his life to be defeated by a Franc battleship and a combined fleet of Ming natives, and he vowed to return to Malacca immediately.

Summoning the main fleet of the Dutch East India Company there, you must defeat the Franc Man. A shame before the snow, revenge.

As soon as his flag was lifted from the Rotterdam, he turned around and fled, and his captain had enough of the swift and nimble junk harassment.

Had he not been cautious enough, he would have been besieged by the Ming natives like the Heerenveen, and after dodging the first simultaneous raid, the Rotterdam has been maneuvering serpentinely at sea.

Although this greatly reduced the accuracy of the guns and made a mess on the gun deck, he managed to escape the fate of being hit.

When it saw the Amsterdam signal to retreat, the Rotterdam immediately turned to flee.

Looking at the Dutch who were about to escape, Allen, the captain of the Yuxiu, jumped up excitedly. He ordered in a loud voice: "Order the whole army to pursue, and never let the Dutch escape." Order that the lads on the bird boat can attack, and be sure to break their rudders! ”

The entire fleet received the flag from the flagship Yuxiu and moved one after another. They began to move closer to the Dutch warships, and they even drove their ships into the Dutch.

A bird boat quickly accelerates, and he quickly rushes towards the stern of the Rotterdam. Despite the Rotterdam's efforts to adjust to the voyage, his fat size decided his fate.

The bird boat was impartial in the stern of Rotterdam, and at the moment of hit, the Changxing army on the bird boat did not choose to board the ship, but jumped into the sea one after another.

At the same time that the bird boat hit the stern, a loud bang was heard in the stern of the ship in Rotterdam. A large amount of explosives were placed in the bow of the bird ship, which was so large that it not only blew up the rudder, but also blew a large hole in the stern of the Rotterdam.

Like a cat that has been stabbed in a chrysanthemum, the stern of the Rotterdam slammed down. The bow of the ship was raised high, and then it slammed down on the surface of the sea.

For a time, many sailors were shocked into the sea, and the artillery deck was in shambles. The guns, which were originally on the gun emplacement, rolled around in the cabin, killing quite a few gunners.

And the deadliest wound came from the stern of the ship, where a huge hole was frantically pouring into the sea. In just a few moments, the stern sank into the sea. Rotterdam's massive hull also began to erect in the middle of the sea and then sank into the sea.

For a while, the Dutch sailors kept jumping from the Rotterdam into the sea, and they all knew that if they didn't escape, the huge whirlpool brought by the sinking of the Rotterdam into the sea would also suck them into the sea.

There was not the slightest joy on Allen's face, but a trace of apprehension. The gunpowder on the bird ship was the amount he calculated, and he thought that the real battleship would not be so vulnerable. So they doubled the amount of gunpowder, and who knew that the stingy Dutch had made the planks so thin that they couldn't help but blow up.

If you upset the lord, you'll be in trouble!

Domingo didn't have Allen's mind, and when he saw the tragic situation in Rotterdam, and then saw the rest of the fast junk boats rushing towards him, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

The first mate ran to him and said, "Captain! What shall we do? ”
