Rebirth of The Deer and the Cauldron, Wei Xiaobao Becomes a God

Pablo shook his head again and denied it, saying, "It is absolutely impossible for the Zheng family to do this! Let's not talk about whether they have the ability to build such a huge warship. Just considering the current situation, they are hostile to the Dutch and the Qing Dynasty, and they are busy with their own affairs. How can they have the time to travel a long distance to the South China Sea?"

At this time, Wales remembered another thing and turned to Pablo and said, "Colonel, the last time those damn Dutch, British and French proposed to rob the richest areas of Qing Dynasty together, we sent six powerful naval warships.

However, more than half a year has passed and there is still no news of these warships.

Have you asked the Dutch, the English, or the French how the battle is going? When will our navy be back?"

"Governor, you don't know that in the past six months, the cunning Dutch, the arrogant British, the insidious French, and even the hateful Portuguese have all disappeared and are nowhere to be found. We have no way of knowing their specific movements and intentions." Pablo frowned and reported the current situation to the governor with concern.

At this moment, a sentry came running to report: "Report to the Governor! The other side's flagship suddenly hung out the letter flag and sent a message, demanding our unconditional surrender within an hour!"

Upon hearing the news, the Governor of Wales was stunned at first, then showed an expression of disbelief, and exclaimed: "What? They are so arrogant! Do they really think that the warships of my mighty Spanish Empire will be afraid of them? They are simply so bold! How dare they show off in front of my powerful Spanish warships!"

Seeing the governor so angry, Pablo quickly asked, "Governor, should we go to war with them?"

Governor Wales took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and then waved his hand and decisively issued an order: "Pass my order down! Let the navy act quickly and form a circle around the enemy warships from the left, center, and right. Once you get close to the enemy ships, you can attack freely. You must teach these ignorant guys a lesson!"

"Yes!" After receiving clear instructions, Pablo immediately turned around to deploy the battle plan.

Just a quarter of an hour later, the Spanish Navy's warships hoisted their sails and rushed towards the enemy's Southern Fleet at full speed like arrows.

Huge waves suddenly rose on the sea, and the strong wind blew over the sails, making a rustling sound. A fierce naval battle was about to begin...

Above the boundless ocean, the thirteen giant ships of the Tiandi Army's South China Sea Fleet floated steadily on the sea like steel behemoths.

On the 101 cruiser, Mao Shiba was standing on the deck, holding a telescope tightly in his hand, staring into the distance with a sharp gaze.

Suddenly, a group of Spanish Navy warships appeared in his sight. They were moving slowly and approaching the South China Sea Fleet in an encircling manner.

Mao Shiba's heart tightened, and he immediately turned to Wei Xiaobao and asked, "Brother Wei, do you think we should use the ship's guns to give them a head-on blow?"

Wei Xiaobao frowned slightly, thought for a moment and replied: "Brother Mao, absolutely not! These Spanish sailboats have not yet left the port. If we rashly use naval guns to bombard them, it is very likely that the entire port will be blown up. It will be too troublesome to rebuild the port at that time!"

Mao Shiba nodded quickly and said, "Brother Wei is really thoughtful! In this case, let's wait for a while. After they have all left the port, we will use torpedoes to teach them a lesson!"

Wei Xiaobao's eyes flashed with determination, and he ordered loudly: "Pass my order, let the Marine Brigade prepare for the beach landing immediately!"

"Yes!" Mao Shiba answered without hesitation, and then turned around to give instructions to the staff officer beside him. After receiving the order, the staff officer quickly ran away to convey Wei Xiaobao's instructions.

After a while, the landing craft on the transport ship were put into the water one after another.

The soldiers of the Marine Brigade were well-trained and agile, and boarded the landing craft as quickly as possible.

They were all in high spirits and ready to fight, just waiting for Wei Xiaobao's order, and then they would rush towards the enemy like a tiger descending from the mountain.

On the Spanish side, Governor Wales and garrison Colonel Pablo hurried to the lookout post on the hill behind the dock.

The two men picked up the binoculars breathlessly and nervously observed the changes in the situation on the sea.

When they saw the giant Nanyang Fleet, they were stunned and their faces turned gloomy in an instant...

These ships were so huge, like moving steel fortresses. What was incredible was that these large ships were still constantly emitting billowing black smoke. These strange ships that they had never seen before filled their hearts with uncertainty and fear.

An hour later, more than 50 warships of the Spanish Navy sailed out of the port in a mighty manner and surrounded the South China Sea Fleet with great momentum.

When the distance between the two sides was shortened to five nautical miles (about nine kilometers), Mao Shiba ordered all warships to launch torpedo attacks immediately.

Almost at the same moment, six ironclad ships and a cruiser each fired two powerful torpedoes at the 17 or 18 Spanish galleons directly in front of them.

Immediately afterwards, the landing craft quickly followed the pace of the torpedo and rushed out like an arrow.

The twelve torpedoes were like twelve ferocious sharks, rushing towards the Spanish galleon at an extremely high speed of 50 knots per hour.

The sailors and gunners of the Spanish warship in the middle saw an unknown white water line rushing towards their own warship. Although they didn't know what it was, they knew that it was definitely not a good thing coming from the enemy fleet.

"Oh my God, what the hell is that thing? Get out of the way, it's about to hit us!" The Spanish crew members screamed in horror.

"Hard left, hard left, get out of the way of those deadly things!" the Spanish captains shouted at the top of their lungs, with cold sweat on their foreheads.

However, all efforts and attempts were too late...

At that moment, the Spanish sailors fell into extreme panic.

The deadly torpedo was like a ferocious beast, rushing towards the Spanish warship with the force of thunder.

Accompanied by deafening noises - "boom, boom, boom...", the torpedoes exploded violently one after another.

In an instant, the entire sea surface seemed to have turned into a sea of ​​fire, with raging flames shooting straight into the sky and thick smoke filling the air.
