Chapter 885 The question of whether the Ming Dynasty is a reasonable God or not is not a god will be put aside for the time being, but with the appearance of the Ming merchant ships, it really makes the naval officers of the Ottoman Empire feel disgusted.In this era when there were no satellites, even if the Ming merchant ship was sunk, no one knew, and without evidence, the Ming could not trouble the Ottoman Empire just by suspecting it.After all, this era is not like later generations, the danger of sea transportation is too great, not to mention merchant ships, once they encounter a storm, the battleship suffers heavy losses.However, the merchant ships of the Ming Dynasty formed a long snake formation, one ship was separated from another ship by more than ten miles, but this fleet was more than forty miles apart.As long as the Ottoman Navy moves, it will definitely not be able to wrap up, with witnesses, the Ming Navy will definitely be dispatched, don't look at the warships of the Ming Navy Expeditionary Force withdrew to the East Indies to deal with the Dutch, but there are still more than 40 warships left in North Africa, these more than 40 warships, that is not a joke.The Ming Dynasty's battleship guns are powerful and have a long range, and the Ming Dynasty is actually maintaining the stability of North Africa and did not intervene in this war, otherwise the Ottoman Empire will definitely have a headache.In the strong wind, the shouts of the Ottomans were heard: "This is the battle of the Ottoman Empire, the area, no ships are allowed to approach!"
”"We are the ship of the Great Ming!""
Da Ming's ship can't get close to the battle area, otherwise you will bear the consequences!"
Then, the battleships of the Ottoman Navy aimed their guns at the four transports: "Don't fire casually, no one can fire without an order!"
”"What should I do?"
The sailors on the transport ship were busy asking the steward."
If you have a life to make money, then you have to have a life to spend, forget it, let's go back!""
Boss, look at the back!"
Just as the Ming merchant ships were about to retreat, behind them, more than 20 Ming warships also appeared.As the Ming warships became tighter and tighter, the Ottoman Navy cursed one after another."
Damn the infidels, you should kill them all!""
You have the ability, you can go!"
Don't look at the small number of Daming warships, but once the fight starts, it's really hard to say, the key is that the Daming warships have already knocked the Ottoman Navy out of the shadow in their hearts.Under the protection of the Ming warships, the Ming merchant ships successfully approached the port and unloaded the goods transported on the dock, and it took a day for four Ming merchant ships full of goods to leave.Although the goods were delivered, the road from the port to the city was blocked by the Ottomans, and Count Greco still could not get the supplies."
General Liu, what should we do next?"
The operational staff officer looked at Liu Bingren.Liu Bingren looked at the bursts of artillery in the distance from time to time, and he smiled lightly: "We are the royal navy of the Ming Dynasty, and our duty is to protect the maritime rights and interests of the Ming Dynasty from being harmed, and to protect the interests of the subjects of the Ming Dynasty from being harmed.If Crete is the territory of our Ming Dynasty, if Chania City is the city of the Ming Dynasty, even if we try our best to fight the last soldier, we will fight to the death and not retreat, but it is a pity ......that "That's right, Liu Bingren was ordered to stay in North Africa, as the existence of the strength of the Ming Royal Navy."
But the strength of this detachment is too small, even if you want to rescue the Republic of Venice, it will not be easy.Thinking of this, Liu Bingren said: "Turn around, let's go to Venice!"
”As one of the eight rear admirals of the Royal Navy, Liu Bingren is now a senior admiral of the Royal Navy, and he naturally knows the Ming Dynasty's overseas layout, and he also knows that the Ming Dynasty attaches great importance to Venice.It is obviously unwise to directly intervene in the war between the two sides, and can only rely on the influence of the Ming Dynasty to deter, and the best way is for the European coalition to break through the city of Venice, if the Ming Dynasty wants to lay out Europe.The Republic of Venice is a very good chess piece, if the Republic of Venice can not resist, he can escort the consuls of the Republic of Venice, as well as some members of the nobility, even if there is a person from the Dandoro family in the world, they can help the Republic of Venice recover the territory under the banner of recovering the Republic of Venice.When Liu Bingren led the Exocet fleet to Venice, the situation in the Republic of Venice was very bad, but watching the appearance of the Ming warship did make the defenders of the Venetian city-state feel inspired.Andrea Dandoro, consul of the Republic of the Venetian city-state, took the opportunity to proclaim: "Subjects of the Republic of the Venetian city-state, good news, our allies are here, we Venetians are not alone, we still have allies!"
”At this time, the Ming Navy's Exocet battleships were arranged in a two-arrow formation, with more than a dozen Exocet warships on the left and right sides, and two main warships in the middle, one of which was Liu Bingren's flagship "Huo Quai".The helmsman skillfully steered, the fleet turned to seize the wind, the sailmen worked together to adjust the sails to make the ships as fast as possible, and the whole fleet rushed towards the port of Venice like a huge iron arrow.At this time, there were British warships, Dutch warships, French warships, and Ottoman warships, and they were less than twenty miles away from the Ming warships.The two sides are in a tenuous posture.Soon there was a reaction from the other side, and the European Combined Fleet sent a small warship of about four hundred tons, and the battleship rushed towards the Huo Quai."
Everyone, get ready!"
Just when all the guns of the Ming Royal Navy put away their gun jackets, the gun barrels began to adjust the firing range.I saw that on the small 400-ton warship, a white flag was erected, with flags and gun jackets put away, indicating that he had no malicious intent.As the saying goes, the two countries will not fight each other, and soon the envoy sent by John Witt, the commander of the European Combined Fleet, don't look at the future Britain is the empire on which the sun never sets, the boss of Europe.However, now the boss of Europe is Spain, and in the anti-Spanish front, Britain is not the boss, and the biggest boss is actually the Dutch.It was not until 1652 and 1656 that a four-year naval battle broke out between England and the Netherlands, which was won by England and defeated by the Dutch, and 270,000 pounds of British pounds were paid to the British.The country is strong, and naturally has the absolute right to speak.Liu Bingren also did not give the order for a direct attack, but wanted to see what the European Combined Fleet wanted to do."
Your Excellency the Eastern General, Your Excellency John Witt, Commander of the United European Fleet, let me bring you my most sincere greetings!"
The present Michel Adriansson de Reuit has a humble face.No humility, the strength of the Ming Dynasty is too strong, the results of more than 50 years of establishment by the Netherlands, in just six months, the Dutch East India Company was beaten to almost no foothold.If Batavia could no longer hold on, the Dutch East India Company would lose the market and wealth of the East Indies forever, but the East India Company also understood that it was precisely because they helped the Wolmore Empire resist the Ming Dynasty and provoked the Ming Empire, so everything ceased to exist.After seeing the Ming Empire's warship fleet, which was as fierce as a volcanic eruption, made the Dutch East India Company and the Netherlands itself soberly realize what a stupid mistake it was to provoke the Ming Dynasty.Now seeing the Ming battleship appear here, the Dutch took the lead in coercing.Liu Bingren has been very calm since he saw Michel Adriansson de Leut, in fact, Liu Bingren did not know that the humble young officer in front of him was one of the most outstanding generals in the history of the Dutch Empire, in the Battle of Lostft, Michel Adriansson de Leut led a huge fleet of 84 warships, 4,600 guns and 22,000 officers and men to sail out to sea and launched an attack on the British.At that time, Charles II of England ordered 56 warships led by George Munch to meet Michelle, and after four days of fierce fighting, the humiliating battle in the history of the British Royal Navy appeared, in which a total of 17 warships were sunk, more than 5,000 soldiers were killed, and more than 3,000 people were captured.The Dutch fleet led by de Reut lost only 6 ships and 2,000 soldiers.It was not until 1652 and 1656 that a four-year naval battle broke out between England and the Netherlands, which was won by England and defeated by the Dutch, and 270,000 pounds of British pounds were paid to the British.The country is strong, and naturally has the absolute right to speak.Liu Bingren also did not give the order for a direct attack, but wanted to see what the European Combined Fleet wanted to do."
