Da Ming started to ascend the throne

"Hurry up and shoot those strange ships, they are warships of the Ming army..."

Under the order of Lysons, the Portuguese warship immediately fired back.

But as soon as they fired a few shots, the battleship was covered by the opponent's shells, and the sawdust was immediately bombarded.

Many shells penetrated the side of the battleship, killing dozens of gunners who were firing.

Two warships in each of the three directions fired fiercely at the Portuguese warships, which made them dizzy and soon caused hundreds of casualties.

The cabin of one of the battleships has been flooded and the hull is slowly tilting.

Zheng Chenggong has been holding a telescope, observing the Portuguese warship.

Seeing that a battleship was being damaged and slowly sinking, a sneer appeared on his face.

"Continue to bombard with solid ammunition, trying to sink them all."

"Rumble..."

If it is said that the Ming army was deliberately playing with the Portuguese just now, in order to achieve the effect of military training.

Now the six armored warships of the Ming army are fully fired, and hundreds of solid shells are overwhelmingly smashing into the Portuguese sailing warships.

"Boom bang..."

"Crack..."

The shells bombarded the battleship, and immediately there was a sound of wood splintering.

How could wooden warships compete with ironclad warships? The sides of their warships were blasted with countless large holes by Ming army shells.

It didn't take long for Portugal's second warship to be sunk by the Ming army.

"Quick...quick retreat"

Lysons was completely desperate, he didn't even touch Macau, two warships had been sunk by the Ming army, so he hurriedly sent an order to retreat.

But as soon as they turned the rudder, the Hongwu quickly rushed from the sea on the left at high speed, and the retreat of the last Portuguese warship was blocked.

Chapter 368 Another Surprise

Seeing that the retreat was blocked by a giant iron-clad battleship, the black hole on the giant ship's muzzle was already aimed at his sailing battleship.

Knowing that there was no other way out but surrender, Lysons hurriedly asked several subordinates to raise the white flag.

"Quickly, raise the white flag and surrender."

But how could they have thought that they would lose the battle, and Bai Qi was not by their side at all.

Just now, he was beaten up by a Ming warship again, and the battleship caught fire in many places, and the white flag could not be found at all.

"Captain, we don't have a white flag! What should we do?"

"Boom..."

Before the soldiers finished speaking, the cannon on the bow of the Hongwu ship had already fired?

A shell directly penetrated the bow position of their wooden battleship.

Although an iron plate was installed there, the wood could no longer withstand the attack, and a big hole was blasted out of the bow, and the sea water rushed into the cabin.

"God……"

Lysons was terrified, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration in order to survive, and he quickly took off his shorts.

"Quickly hang it up, this one is white, it should be fine."

The commander of the Hongwu is Zhang Huangyan, and he doesn't want to sink the opponent's warship just yet.

The opponent's battleship obviously had no strength to fight back, and there were no reinforcements, which just allowed the gunners to practice their accuracy.

So keep bombarding the Portuguese galleon with just one heavy gun and see how many guns it takes to sink him.

"Deputy governor, you see they have raised the white flag, do you want to continue fighting?"

The observation post suddenly found a small white flag raised by the opposing warship, and hurriedly asked Zhang Huangyan for instructions.

Zhang Huangyan picked up the binoculars and looked. Where was the white flag, it was clearly a pair of white shorts.

Under normal circumstances, seeing this situation, Zhang Huangyan certainly knew that the opponent's warship wanted to surrender.

But they are invaders, openly invading our Ming Dynasty, if they can't defeat Da Ming, they want to surrender.

If there is any consequence of the defeat of Ming Dynasty, not only will the territory be ceded, but compensation will be paid and a public apology will be made.

Zhang Huangyan snorted coldly:

"Hmph, it's too simple to think. Before they invaded Ming Dynasty, why didn't they think about the consequences. The governor didn't see any white flags. Change incendiary bombs and burn them to death!"

"Yes"

The Portuguese sailors were overjoyed when they saw that after the "white flag" was raised, the giant ship of Ming Dynasty stopped shelling. They hurriedly reported to Lysons:

"Captain, your artifact is really useful? Ming people stopped shelling."

Lysons laughed triumphantly, completely forgetting the embarrassment just now.

"Hahaha, these Ming people are still easy to deceive. As long as we escape from Shengtian, we must ask His Majesty the King to send a large fleet to retaliate against them? At that time, we will not only want Macau? The whole of Guangdong will be part of our kingdom."

"Rumble..."

"Boom bang..."

Lysons' smug laughter didn't stop when suddenly five shells landed on the deck of their sailing warship.

"God……"

Lysons was taken aback? But when he saw that the shells did not seriously damage the battleship deck, he seemed to suddenly realize:

"Quick? Speed ​​up and escape, the Ming people have run out of shells, and these useless shells can't hurt us at all."

A total of more than 300 people on their warships? More than 200 were killed by Ming army cannons.

There are still a hundred or so soldiers left? Half of them are wounded? Hearing that the Ming people have no heavy artillery shells? Immediately feel like a new life.

The soldiers who were injured and unable to move also ran to the deck to help raise the sails and prepare to speed up their escape.

"Rumble..."
