The Dutch are ready and are waiting for the arrival of the Southeast Fleet!

Governor Speke judged that Ming Ren had not suffered a major loss last time, and this time he would take advantage of the wind to attack, so he should beware early.

The maritime power of the Netherlands is terrible. Merchant ships spread across five continents (Europe, North and South America, Africa, and Asia) and three oceans (Atlantic, Indian and Pacific). An ocean-going merchant ship launched!

In the Far East, the Dutch stationed the East India Company, established a headquarters in Batavia, Java, and established other strongholds in the East Indies and Spice Islands. After years of operation, it has owned hundreds of merchant ships and two A wealthy company with more than 10,000 employees. The business is very busy. The main export trade includes sugar, deerskin, venison, antlers, rattan, and rice. The transshipment trade includes Dutch metal, medicinal materials, Batavia spices, pepper, Amber, linen, cotton, elegant pieces, tin, lead, Chinese silk, pottery, gold, porcelain, tea, and of course cannons and gunpowder, ship components, teak wood, etc. under the care of a steadfast patriot!

To be honest, you shouldn’t export sensitive things like cannons, but the Dutch are crazy about money. The profit of munitions is known to the people of the earth. They exported too much cannons, and only recently started exporting cannons and the like to the Southeast. The trade embargo was imposed and all ramblings including the British, Spanish and Portuguese were required to abide by it. They also received their response!

The strength of the Southeast Mansion has risen too fast, which is a great threat to Hong Maofan's business!

Although the British were ill-intentioned and tried to use the Southeast Mansion to deal with the Netherlands, the Southeast Mansion is now constantly building powerful battleships that have the power to overthrow the rule of the Hong Maofan Sea. This has also joined the Dutch arms prohibition on the Southeast Mansion. In transit. (Of course, they did not break the relationship with the Southeastern Government, but pretended to say that there is no artillery in their own country, and there are actually some in their warehouse in India)

The business of the East India Company is prosperous. Everyone is too busy. As long as the boat runs, there will be money. As a result, no one wants to waste time. If it were not for the strong power of Governor Spek and the help of other knowledgeable foreign chiefs, it was hard to concentrate. Ten armed merchant ships, this is the biggest force buildup of the East India Company in recent years!

The captains all complained and complained and complained, and Governor Speke's voice was even louder: "I am responsible to the shareholders of the company. I will tell you not to do business and prepare for the war. If I lose the battle, I will be unlucky. Of course, if I don't As this governor, you may make more money by running a boat!"

The governor was like this, everyone had nothing to say, so they made serious preparations. More than 60 armed merchant ships set sail and fired artillery all day long to train in platooning, sailing and artillery. This is a rare situation for their old drivers. .

Like an enemy! In the eyes of the Chinese and natives in Batavia, don't have a feeling in your heart!

The Chinese secretly rejoiced that if the Southeast Mansion wins, everyone is of the same race, and there are many people from the same country. In the future, they can take the affairs of Batavia to the next level.

Most of the natives have no brains, chaos, and don't know the meaning of this battle, while the clever natives are worried, thinking that their already low status is even more difficult to guarantee!

Some tufu leaders had gloomy faces and stared at the Chinese leaders, to see if they had any pain in their feet, so unfortunately everyone would come together!

...

Let’s say that after Munch, the Portuguese, got a satisfactory reward and left, the Dutch in the Governor’s Mansion were nervously discussing how to deal with those nasty bright people!

Kill them, destroy their fleet, and seize their Southeast Mansion!

You play my idea, then I am also plotting your career!

As long as you defeat the opponent's fleet, immediately send your troops northward and block the Southeast Mansion. The Southeast Mansion without a fleet will be a toothless wolf, let the hunter kill it!

All at once, economically, you can get mature rice fields, endless sugarcane fields, shipyards, sugar factories, and a large number of people as slaves, and trade re-exports are in an extremely advantageous position... and geographically, it is even more rewarding. Suppressing the Ming Dynasty empire can connect to the Silver Land (Wai Kingdom). For these reasons, Governor Speke persuaded the rebellious captains to stop their business and join the carnival party after Christmas. in.

Get ready to fire as much as you want, enjoy it!

Six battleships have undergone emergency modification, reaching more than fifty guns, and equipped with a lot of 24-pounder guns. The crew is well-trained, and they are all old drivers, ready to beat Mingren!

The port of Batavia was busy. The Dutch were making urgent pre-war preparations. They shipped various supplies to the ship. Artillery, shells, gunpowder, firearms, water and food, ship equipment, medical equipment and medicines were everywhere. It's people, there are goods everywhere.

All the Dutch in Batavia went into battle, except for some left-behind personnel, all the white people who were able to get on board were on board!

Half of the Dutch, and the rest are English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, German, Swiss and Danish, as well as Russians, etc., the whole white league.

In addition to the blacks, Indians, Middle Easterners, and local brown guys, only one Chinese is missing-the Chinese have outstanding abilities. If they were to join the army, that would be amazing!

Facts have proved that white people are indeed smart. They let the Chinese work and make money. The Chinese have rich men, but they cannot be allowed to control the military power.

The various accents yelled and cursed, the skin colors flashed back and forth, dazzling, and the harbor was noisy like a huge honeycomb.

In the Age of Great Navigation~www.wuxiaspot.com~, countries and ethnic groups have never been so closely connected as they are now, and the sea routes are threaded one by one, connecting various places together.

Various foreign guns, such as Governor Speke, Hendrick Brouwer, Anthony Van Dimen and various captains boarded the ship, as the sailing bell rang, and the warships of the sailing period set sail. , Set sail to the sea, wait until you get out of the port, cover the sea, and the grand occasion is unprecedented!

They attacked north from the south and were a little far away from the shore. They did not intend to let people on the shore see the battle. They learned from the previous experience and let the Chinese and the natives see their embarrassment, which led to unnecessary incidents.

And to the north, the same spectacular fleet is riding on the hunting wind, heading towards Batavia on the high ground!

The two opposing fleets are in astonishing agreement, and their tracks are rapidly approaching!
