The battle at Jilong Port has lasted for three or four days. The Dutch Formosa commander and pirate Liu Xiang attacked the Spanish city of San Salvador. After working hard for three days, the Ming Dynasty's Nanyang Navy suddenly came up from the north and wiped out the outer pirate Liu Xiang's troops in one fell swoop.

Speaking of which, the Dutch and the pirate Liu Xiang tribe were obviously allies, why did they not react at all when they saw the Ming navy beating Liu Xiang?

They wanted to react. Their chief Putmans had led most of his troops to attack San Salvador on the island of Chicken Cage. They left dozens of sailors and dozens of gunners on their warships and armed merchant ships. How did they react?

In fact, they still had some reactions, but they didn't help the pirates to deal with the Ming Navy, but ran to the north bank of Jilong Island to pick up their commander Putmans.

When Putmans saw so many Ming warships suddenly appeared, he lost interest in attacking the Spaniards for a while. He hurriedly led more than a thousand Dutch and more than a thousand pirates carrying cannons to the north shore of Jilong Island. No matter what, he would return to the warship first.

He soon returned to the only super battleship that the Dutch had, but his more than 120 artillery took a long time to transport it back to the warship and armed merchant ships. As a result, their artillery was just transported back to the ship, and before they could even get back to their original position, the pirate Liu Xiang's troops were wiped out by the Ming Navy!

In fact, Putmans was not afraid of the Ming Navy. If he was afraid, he would throw away the more than 120 artillery pieces and run away. The reason why he didn't run was because he didn't believe that the Ming Navy dared to do anything to him. Although the pirate Liu Xiang was their ally, they were pirates after all. It was natural for the Ming Navy to come to suppress pirates. He was not good at intervening when his strength was inferior to others. He thought that the Ming Navy would just be fine if he fought pirates, but he decided not to attack his fleet because he was a Dutch, which was the Dutch fleet. The Netherlands is the current overlord of the sea. If the Ming Dynasty dared to attack his fleet, wouldn't he be afraid of the Dutch Navy taking revenge?

This time he was really wrong, and it was ridiculously wrong. The Ming Navy came to deal with him specifically, and the pirate Liu Xiang's army was just a tidying up!

Just after Zheng Zhihu watched Liu Xiang's suicide performance, he immediately assembled to gather fifty super battleships and forced him to the Dutch fleet near the north bank of Jilong Island.

Putmans felt something was wrong. He quickly asked the messenger to climb up the mast and asked the Ming Navy in flags what he wanted to do. However, the Ming Navy did not react at all and surrounded them directly. Putmans was so angry that he pointed at the Ming fleet and roared: "Go and tell them that we are the fleet of the Dutch East India Company, let them get out of here."

Another messenger quickly climbed up the mast and hit him with flag words. The Ming Navy finally responded. All battleships were crossed. The right side of the ship was facing them. The shells hit them like raindrops!

There were only a dozen large ships here in total, and they stopped and did not move. At least one-third of the shells flying over hit their warships and armed merchant ships.

Fifty super battleships had fifty cannons on each side, a total of 2,500 cannons, one-third of which was more than 80 shells. That is to say, each of the Dutch warships and armed merchant ships had seventy or eighty shells. This number was a bit terrifying. For a moment, there were holes everywhere on the side of the ship and sails, and there were endless crackling sounds on the deck, and countless screams were mixed in between. Putmans did not order to hide. The Ming Navy suddenly hit a round of shells, and many Dutch and pirates carrying the cannons were hit, and the deck was covered with blood and blood!

Putmans couldn't believe his eyes. Is the Ming Empire crazy? They were Dutch people and the two countries were not in a state of war. They opened fire without saying a word. Are you not afraid that the Dutch Navy will come to deal with them?

"Boomboo" answered him with another round of shells. Putmans jumped up from the chair in the command room in shock. How could this be possible? Is it possible? Is there no need to load ammunition? A question like Liu Xiang came up in his mind, but "Boomboo" answered him with another round of shells!

"Fuk, are you unreasonable!" Putmans roared, "Boom Boom Boom" answered him another round of artillery!

"Fuk, don't you know we are Dutch!" Putmans continued to roar, "Boom Boom Boom" answered him a round of artillery!

"Oh, shoot, prepare to fight back!" Putmans could no longer bear it and had to order a fight back, but "Boom Boom Boom" answered him with a round of cannonage!

As soon as the sound of the cannon came, there was a loud "boom" sound, and a hole was suddenly smashed in his command room, "Oh, buy cakes and land, be careful to hide." He was the first to drill under the table, and several messengers hurriedly followed him.

"Boom boom boom", "Boom boom boom" "Boom boom boom"... The Ming Navy finally stopped after fifteen consecutive rounds of artillery. At this time, the Dutch super battleships and armed merchant ships were extremely miserable. There were holes everywhere on the side of the ship. There were no complete building on the entire deck, and many muzzles on both sides were smashed. Some shells even flew in from the muzzles, killing the artillery inside!

Putmans thought the Ming army stopped to give him time to consider, and what else could he think about it. He quickly kicked a messenger out from under the table, and then shouted: "Surrender, we surrender, go and tell them, we surrender!"

The messenger ran out in a row and crawled up the mast a few times. This time he didn't have to whisper the flag. He pulled out a piece of white cloth from his arms and waved it hard.

Zheng Zhihu saw this situation in the telescope and smiled disdainfully. Humph, aren’t the Dutch very awesome? You also know how to surrender!

He carefully admired the tragic situation of the Dutch fleet for a while, and then he ordered with unfulfilled satisfaction: "Transfer the order, the left army and the right army leaned forward, controlled all their ships, and let them escort the commander to me."

The messenger ran outside and climbed up the mast and whispered flags. Ten battleships on each side slowly leaned towards the Dutch fleet. After a while, they leaned against the Dutch ships. Teams of musketeers took out the hook locks and hung the slide ropes. They used the drop to slide onto the Dutch ship.

After they got on the ship, they were much more civilized than when they were pirates. They just pulled out the Dutch guns and tied their hands behind them. They didn't hit or scold them. The Dutch soldiers were more cooperative, but there was no chaos. They just quit when they tied up Putmans, and shouted while pushing and blocking, "I am the Dutch chief in Formosa, you can't tie me!"

After all, Zheng Zhilong had been doing business with the Dutch for a long time. Many of these navy officers and soldiers knew a little Dutch. Now they were a little hesitant, should they tie it or not?

At this time, the left army general Chen Zhang happened to board the ship. General Qian, who was responsible for controlling the battleship, ran up quickly, gave a standard military salute, and then said loudly: "Report to General, this person said he is what commander he is, and we don't let us tie him up. What do you think of the solution?"

When Chen Zhang heard this, he rolled his eyes. He was ordered to escort the chief to the flagship. If he was tied up or not, he walked over and kicked Putmans to the deck, and then said to the guard beside him: "Tie it up, take it, and follow me to the flagship."

The two personal guards beside him rushed forward immediately, held Putmans skillfully tied his hands up, and then raised them up.

Putmans kept screaming freely. Chen Zhang actually understood completely, but he was too lazy to talk to this guy, so he turned around and left. The two personal guards quickly took Putmans to follow him.

Until he got on the flagship, this guy was still yelling. Chen Zhang frowned, slapped his hands directly, and scolded in Dutch words: "Shut up, now take you to see my commander, be honest."

The hero did not suffer the loss at the moment. Although Putmans was so angry that he still shut his mouth honestly. However, as soon as he entered Zheng Zhihu's command room, he immediately knew that this was the command of the Ming fleet. He protested directly: "Your commander, your subordinates are too rude. He not only tied me up, but also hit people. You and I are both commanders. I demand equal dialogue. I ask for severe punishment for your rude subordinate."

When Zheng Zhihu heard this, he asked directly in Dutch words: "Oh, what is your military rank?"

Putmans thought that Zheng Zhihu was concerned about the Dutch Navy and wanted to give him a chance to have equal dialogue, so he immediately said proudly: "I am a captain of the Dutch Navy."

Zheng Zhihu glanced at his mouth and joked: "A captain, you dare to ask for equal dialogue with me. Do you know what rank I have? You admirals are not as high as my rank. Let me kneel down and talk to me."

Putmans wanted to protest, so Chen Zhang walked over and bent his knee and kicked him to kneel to the ground with a whisper.

Zheng Zhihu nodded and smiled and said, "Well, this is almost the same. In our Ming Dynasty, we have to behead our heads because of the contempt of Shangguan. I have something to do. I don't want to behead your head yet."

Putmans was about to speak harshly at this moment, but when he heard that he was going to behead his head, he immediately stopped talking. It was not cost-effective to just drop his head in order to quickly say something.

Seeing that he was honest, Zheng Zhihu put away his joking expression and said seriously: "I will officially notify you now that our Ming Dynasty is going to regain Formosa. If you can write a letter to your subordinates and ask them to withdraw from Relanzha City immediately, I will let you and your subordinates go."

When Putmans heard this, he thought about it and said, "No, he has not been punished for losing the merchant ship. If he wants to hand over the city of Relanzha to the Ming Empire, he will definitely be hung when he returns. He will die at all times. He simply replied with a tough heart: "I can't write a letter. If you want to kill, just kill it."

Zheng Zhihu didn't expect that this guy was so unafraid of death, so there was nothing to say. He directly said aloud: "Chen Zhang, the general of the Left Army, followed the order."

Chen Zhang quickly knelt on one knee and said loudly: "The last one is here."

Zheng Zhihu signed a general order to throw it to him, and then ordered: "Let you lead ten battleships of the Left Army, together with two thousand musketeers of the Second Corps of the Imperial Guards, and escort all the Dutch prisoners to Chichi, and hand them over to the Beiyang Navy Admiral Huang Long."

Putmans clearly refused to persuade the Dutch defenders in the city of Jelanzha. What's the use of sending him over? The end of this chapter, please see the next breakdown.
