The Ming Dynasty has just been exiled and the Luzon system has awakened.

While Dingtianfu and The Ming Dynasty were still in theaters, and around Southeast Asia and South Asia, the revamped version of Journey to the West was still frantically grabbing money, in Taiwan, Zhu Heyi had already begun preparing to march into Xiamen.

"Zhang Raoheng, arrange ships to escort all the prisoners back to Luzon, and give them all to mine. The next war in Xiamen is crucial, and I have no time to deal with them."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Xie Xingsheng, how is your naval fleet doing? Can it fight?"

"Your Majesty, according to your instructions, all the Franco cannons on all captured large ships have been removed and installed on small and medium-sized ships. All the naval guns missing from the large warships have been replaced by army-type 12-pound field guns. Temporarily added, although the performance is not as good as the naval gun, it is still stronger than the naval gun used by the Qing army, and the naval fleet can fight!"

"Very good! At 10 o'clock tonight, the army will march towards Xiamen. Your naval fleet will be the vanguard of the army. Whether you can capture the bridgehead of Xiamen depends on whether you can kill Shi Lang's Fujian Navy."

"A humble minister will live up to His Majesty's expectations!"

……

The next day, at noon.

Off the coast of Kinmen, several small bird boats of the Qing army were cruising on the sea. They were the early warning ships placed by Shi Lang at the forefront.

After Wei Hongshuo conveyed the news of Ming's seizure of Taiwan to Xiamen, Shi Lang ordered all officers and soldiers of the Fujian Navy to return to camp and be on standby 24 hours a day. They must stay on board the ship when eating, drinking or eating.At the same time, the coastal forts also strengthened their vigilance to prevent sneak attacks by the Ming army.

Because the information provided by Wei Hongshuo was not comprehensive and even contained many exaggerated elements, Shi Lang only dared to assume a defensive posture. If he knew that the Ming army only had 32 warships available at the beginning, he would have already mobilized the entire army to suppress it. On.

Unfortunately, the wrong information provided by Wei Hongshuo caused him to miss this opportunity.

At this time, a lookout soldier on a small bird ship suddenly pointed to the east and shouted:

"Ming Army! Ming Army is coming!"

Upon hearing the sound, the remaining Qing officers and soldiers on the ship immediately ran to the side of the ship and looked at the large sail shadow appearing in the distance.

"Zhan Jin, record the information. The Ming Navy is attacking. It is estimated that there will be more than 100 warships, all of which are medium and large warships, including some large red-haired ghost warships!"

The Qing army officer held up a monocular and looked at the Ming army fleet in the distance and said loudly.

Although telescopes were scarce during this period, as an early warning force, Shi Lang still found a way to get a few for these small boats.

Not long after, the soldiers recorded the information, and a carrier pigeon carrying the letter was released. Then, several small bird boats on the sea began to turn around and retreat.

Soon, Shi Lang in the rear received the message from the early warning force.

"Hundreds of medium and large warships? And some red-haired ghost warships?"

Shi Lang frowned as he read the contents of the letter.

Although his Fujian Navy has a total of more than 300 large and small warships, small ships account for the majority, and there are only more than 100 medium and large warships, and the Ming army also has red-haired ghost warships!

Having fought against the Dutch, he knew very well how powerful these warships were. When the hulls were comparable, neither the Fu Ship nor the Bird Ship was a match for these red-haired ghost warships.

This naval battle will probably be quite brutal!

"Everyone, the navy of the remnants of the Ming Dynasty has arrived at the sea outside Kinmen, with hundreds of large and small warships. However, we are the ancestors when it comes to naval battles. Let us teach these people how to fight naval battles!"

"All warships weigh anchor and leave port immediately!"

Shi Lang looked at the naval officers in front of him and ordered loudly.

Although he knows that this battle will not be easy, the advantage lies with me, so don’t panic!

……

At around 2000 o'clock in the afternoon, the Ming Dynasty Royal Navy Fleet had bombarded several coastal defense batteries deployed by the Qing Army in Kinmen to the ground. The more than [-] marines accompanying the ship also completed the landing on Kinmen under the cover of the fleet.

At this time, hundreds of warships from Shi Lang's Fujian Navy fleet finally appeared opposite the Ming fleet.

"What a big scene! I just don't know how many ships will be able to float on the water after this battle."

Looking at the Qing navy across from him, Xie Xingsheng's eyes lit up.

To be honest, the fleet of more than 300 warships is really spectacular, and the overwhelming scene is really oppressive.

However, this brought only excitement and full fighting spirit to Xie Xingsheng.

"Order! The frigate group moves forward, pay attention to destroying the Qing army's small warships, and do not let them get close to the main fleet. The other ships will follow this ship!"

The frigates Xie Xingsheng was talking about were the small and medium-sized warships captured in Penghu. At this moment, almost all of these small and medium-sized warships were equipped with Fran cannons.

Although this kind of small artillery has a short range and low power, it is very useful against the small ships of the Qing army.

Load it with shotguns and shoot down the Qing army's arson boats and suicide boats. You can almost kill a child with one shot. Even if you can't hit the boat, you can kill all the sailors on it in an instant.

With the protection of these frigates, the main fleet no longer has to be distracted from dealing with suicide ships and arson ships.

At 1:[-] in the afternoon, the Fujian Navy of the Qing Army launched an attack on the Royal Navy of the Ming Dynasty under the order of Navy Admiral Shi Lang.

More than 300 warships rushed towards the Ming fleet with full sail, and a large-scale battle involving nearly 500 warships from both sides officially broke out.

Due to the range of the artillery, 26 large warships captured by the Qing army were placed on the front line. They were also the first batch of warships to open fire in this battle.

"Boom boom boom..."

"Woooooooo~ Boom boom..."

The muzzle fire of the fleet before the Ming army arrived flickered, and the dense shells tore through the air and hit the Qing navy fleet, exploding countless water pillars into the sky.

The arriving fleet is equipped with two types of artillery, one is the Army's Type 90 12-pound field gun that can fire explosive shells, and the other is the original artillery that can only fire solid shells.

The fact is such a coincidence that in this round of shelling by the arriving fleet, all the explosive shells hit the sea, and all the shells that hit the Qing warships were solid shells.

Although these solid bullets also caused some casualties to the Qing army, they also gave all Qing troops the illusion that the Ming navy was similar to them.

"Ming Navy Navy, that's it?"

As a result, Shi Lang did not hesitate to issue the order to suppress the entire army.

"The decisive battle is about to start? It seems that Marquis Jinghai is very confident!"

Looking at the swarm of Qing naval forces approaching, Xie Xingsheng's lips raised.

"Order! The fleet turns, bearing 018, press the rudder! Line formation, free fire!"

"Master Shi has come here to die, so it seems impossible not to give him a ride~"

……

"Boom boom boom..."

The sound of the cannon was as loud as thunder.

The explosion shines like fireworks.

Dense cannonballs fell on the sea and exploded large and small water columns. The sea surface surged like a boil. Countless fish with their white bellies exposed among the white foam were still struggling. However, their swim bladders were shattered, and their death was only a matter of time. Problem.

On a medium-sized bird ship of the Qing Navy, Shi Lang's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

He did not choose those large warships as his ships, because he knew that whether it was a land battle or a naval battle, the more dazzling ones would always get the hardest hits.

Looking at it now, his choice is undoubtedly the right one.

Because at this moment, almost all the large warships in his navy have become key lighting targets for the Ming Navy.

Seeing the orange-red fireballs rising from time to time on his own battleship, his heart was bleeding.

Hundreds of suicide ships and arson ships were bombarded by the Fran machine cannons of the opponent's medium-sized warships, igniting two medium-sized bird ships of the Ming Navy at the cost of annihilating the entire army.

Did you earn it?

Lost to grandma's house!

The remaining medium and large warships of our own side were also completely suppressed in the artillery battle with the opponent.

Although they had an advantage in the number of warships, they were not even able to effectively counterattack under the attack of the explosive bombs.

The shock wave of the explosion, if not killing the sailors on the ship, knocked them around.

And their counterattack seemed to be just scratching an itch for the Ming Navy.

Especially those three terrifying warships that the Dutch called battleships.

Except for the fact that one's own artillery shells hit the deck and caused casualties, they did not break the defense at all when they hit the hull.

With every round of shelling from the other side, one of our own warships was torn to pieces in the intensive explosion.

So far in the battle, he has sunk all small ships and more than 30 medium and large warships. Almost all the remaining warships have been damaged, and the victory achieved is only 6 warships of the opponent.

This exchange ratio is too exaggerated. If the fight continues, within an hour, all the Fujian navy will have to sink into the sea to feed the fish!

"Ming Jin withdraws troops!"

Shi Lang gritted his teeth and said.

"Woo~"

The long conch sound sounded, which was the signal for the Qing navy to retreat.

However, how can it be that the fleets of both sides, which have been entangled together, can be withdrawn just by saying they will withdraw.
