Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
In order to compete for colonial interests, the Dutch and the Portuguese have been in conflict for a long time, and the high-level people on the island of Taiwan did not expect that they would put aside the contradictions and join forces!
This makes everyone feel a sense of depression that the mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is full of buildings.
More than 300 warships, 40,000 combined troops to open the Taiwan Strait, thousands of cannons aimed at one direction brought about by the majestic pressure, is not experienced in this kind of war scene can not be imagined, many of the island's civil and military generals have experienced the era of Zheng Chenggong's attack on Taiwan, when the Zheng army and the Dutch fought a series of battles, but until the final decisive battle, the battleship, when the military power is the largest, the number of artillery on both sides adds up to hundreds of guns!
Rao is like this, and the scene of hundreds of heavy artillery guns firing at each other still makes many people tremble when they think about it.
The Portuguese-Dutch coalition forces used this overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai to advance layer by layer, causing everyone on the island of Taiwan to change color.
"This ...... How can this be fought? Our warships are not as strong as the other side, and the artillery is not as good as theirs, and even the number is far from the same! If you really have to fight hard, I'm afraid it won't be long before it's all gone! ”
"If we don't withdraw all the soldiers, we will defend the fortified city, and it is expected that the Dutch and Portugal will not be able to attack it!"
"The army can be withdrawn, but can the ships be moved ashore? Without a navy, the island would become a toothless tiger, and it would only be self-defeating! ”
On the island of Taiwan, a number of civil servants and military generals were talking one after another, and everyone looked worried and frightened.
In fact, they were not unaware of the huge amount of water in the Portuguese-Dutch army, and more than half of the more than 300 warships were converted from merchant ships. There was not even a gun emplacement installed on it. The 40,000 Portuguese and Dutch armies were not all Portuguese. Composed of the Dutch, the colonial servant army accounted for seventy or eighty percent, and these servant armies were naturally not elite, but more of a 'cannon fodder'!
But even if the servant army is a rabble, the Taiwan Navy is also not an elite division, since Zheng Chenggong captured Taiwan, the armament has been negligent in training, and it is not much better than this bunch of servant army!
The most intuitive gap is still the dozens of capital ships and thousands of heavy guns that are about to erupt into a wave of fire. This is what suffocates the Minister of Civil Affairs and Military Affairs on the island.
What is the naval battle for? The elite of the soldiers is certainly one of the conditions for victory, but the most important thing is the strong ship and heavy artillery!
The upper echelons of the island are inexplicably frightened, and the morale of the Taiwan Navy stationed in the sea area is also low, and no one can help but feel frightened; in this state, they meet the enemy, and if they are not suppressed by the generals, they are afraid that they will fall into a state of collapse and chaos if they are not suppressed by the enemy's several volleys.
On a lookout on the island, Mr. Jin's face turned pale, and he sighed dejectedly: "Since the attack on Taiwan, it has only been ten years. The armament has been abandoned to this point, and the generals are afraid of death. Soldiers are cowardly! If the country's surname is known, I am afraid, I am only afraid of ....... ”
He let out a long sigh.
Chen Jinnan also had a solemn face, and was speechless for a long time.
On the other side, Wang Dong's face was calm, his eyes patrolled the surrounding sea, the gap between the two hundred years before and after the Age of Discovery, it is not so easy to close, the Portuguese, the Dutch are the forerunners in the Age of Discovery, Fang is the world's leading maritime power, and it is not surprising that the Taiwan Navy has such a big gap with it.
"Mr. Jin, pass on my military order, so that the commanders of all departments of the navy will go to war, and if you dare to retreat, you will not be killed!"
Wang Dong ordered.
"Yes!" Mr. Jin looked straight, took a deep breath and responded, and then left in a hurry to convey the edict.
When the war was imminent, another soldier hurriedly came to report: "The king, the Dutch envoy, the Portuguese envoy is here!" ”
"Call them over." Wang said.
Soon, the envoys of the Portuguese and Dutch armies were led to Wang Dong.
This time, the envoy sent by the Dutch was changed, and it was no longer the previous Fantwin, but compared to Fantwin, these two people were more arrogant, standing in front of Wang Dong and not saluting.
The Dutch envoy looked condescendingly and spoke in a broken Chinese dialect, saying, "You are the king of the island of Taiwan?" I have come by order of Admiral Lemuel to remind you that you have made a serious mistake, that your foolish actions have angered all the bloody Dutch warriors, and that you must immediately release all the Dutch people in custody and pay reparations for them, the contents of which are recorded in this treaty! ”
The Dutch envoy took out a copy of the treaty and handed it to the king.
Wang Dong didn't pick it up, but asked, "What if this king doesn't agree?" ”
The Dutch envoy seemed to have been waiting for his words for a long time, held his head high, pointed to the Portuguese-Dutch alliance army in the sea area, and sneered: "You have no qualifications to refuse, otherwise, what awaits you is war!" ”
Chen Jinnan took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "This is Taiwan, not the Netherlands, nor Portugal, and it is not your turn to call the shots." ”
The Dutch envoy and the Portuguese envoy glanced at each other and laughed: "You are wrong, we have invincible warships, indestructible cannons, there is nothing we can't call the shots, the truth is controlled by the strong!" Your navy seems to us to be as weak as a sheep and is not qualified to negotiate terms with us. ”
"Your Excellency, you have a day to make a decision, and I hope you will not be as stupid as you were last time, and make a wise choice."
The Dutch envoy and the Portuguese envoy said goodbye and turned to leave.
"Why choose? Go back and report it, and say that the king accepts your declaration of war. Wang Dong said.
The Dutch envoy turned around, looked at him with a mocking look, and sneered: "Your Excellency, you will pay a great price for your stupidity and arrogance, which you will never be able to bear, farewell!" ”
The king said, "Did the king say you could go?" ”
Choke! The two guards flashed their cold sword light and stood in front of the two messengers, blocking their way.
The Dutch envoy's face changed, and he rebuked angrily: "You Han people have a saying, it is called two armies fighting, if you don't kill the envoy, Your Excellency is also a king, do you want to violate the rules of your Han people?" ”
"We just have too many rules, which leads to future disasters! What's more, when did this king pay attention to the rules? ”
Wang Dong's eyes were calm, and he said lightly: "Break these two people's legs and feet, and throw them into the sea to feed the fish!" ”
"Yes!" The two guards hurried forward, carrying the Dutch envoy, and the Portuguese envoy departed.
The two messengers finally panicked and shouted, "No! You can't do this to us. ”
"We are messengers, not prisoners!"
"You're going to regret it, you stupid guy, you're going to die a terrible death!"
Chen Jinnan looked unbearable and said, "King Qin ......." ”
Wang Dong waved his hand and said, "Needless to say, if you are really idle, go to the warship to help!" (To be continued......)
