On August 15th, [-]th year of Tianqi, after holding a birthday banquet for his four children.

Lin Yuhao turned his focus back to choosing a good husband's family for his sister.

However, a letter from Zheng Zhilong, Fujian, sent to Liaodong.He broke Lin Yuhao's plan and temporarily put down his investigation work.

The Red Dutch gathered a large number of warships in their old lair of Batavia.He threatened to start a war with Zheng Zhilong and Lin Yuhao in the waters of Dayuan Island at the same time.

After reading Zheng Zhilong's letter to himself, Lin Yuhao sneered in his heart and said, "Hehe, there are people who really don't know how to live or die! It's because I haven't been to the sea for a long time, do you think my warship can't fight naval battles?"

"Where do these Hongyi Dutch people have the confidence and courage? Do you want to challenge me, Zheng Zhilong, and Liang Jingru at the same time?"

With more and more skilled shipbuilders being trained, Riding Wind Island is steadily following the plan.Many warships have been mass-produced and launched into service, and there is still room to transform some old warships.

Currently, according to Lin Yuhao's plan.Eight Liaodong battleships and 24 vanguard-class cruisers have all been built and launched into service.

The eight Liaodong-class battleships are: Liaodong, Shenyang, Guangning, Yizhou, Fushun, Ningyuan, Haizhou and Gaizhou.

The 24 pioneer-class cruise ships are: Jinzhou, Tianjin, Victory, Feihu, Feiying, Liaoyang, Weiyuan, Zhenyuan, Yaozhou, Yongning, Anshan, Lushun, Taikang No. [-], Taihe, Yongping, Shuntian, Tianfeng, Tianjian, Tianxiong, Tianxuan, Taiping, Taian, Baoding and Feibao.

With such a solid family background, Lin Yuhao is really not afraid of any sea fleet from Europa in this era.

Moreover, Lin Yuhao always thought.I am a brilliant China, a magnificent country in the sky.There should be such an aura: Wherever the rivers and seas are, and where the sun and the moon shine, all belong to our land of China.

As for the small countries in Europe, dare to say that they provoke our Celestial Empire?
It is true that the Hongyi Dutch are regarded as a maritime military power in Europa.

But this is the East, the East that is extremely mysterious to them Westerners.

It's not their turn to play wild here, and say they want to challenge me Lin Yuhao and Zheng Zhilong at the same time.

OK!My fleet will tell you, in this age of big gun ships.As far as those broken boats you Westerners like, they are all paper-made spicy chicken.

After making up his mind, Lin Yuhao recruited Wang Huaibao.Instruct him to guard the Jingdong Acropolis, and not to relax the surveillance of Jiannu in Liaobei.

With his escort and the third infantry battalion, he went straight to the Hunhe wharf.From there, take a boat to the Sancha River, then change to a big boat and go straight to Chengfeng Island.

On August 22, Lin Yuhao led his escort and the third infantry battalion to Chengfeng Island.

Chengfeng Island is a military control area, and half of the fleet stationed here is on combat readiness every day.

Therefore, it only took half an hour for Lin Yuhao to arrive at Chengfeng Island.The mobilization of the main fleet was completed, with eight battleships and 24 cruisers.Carrying Lin Yuhao, his guards, and the third infantry battalion, they sailed away from the Chengfeng Island military port.Heading towards the waters of Dayuan Island, we embarked on a long voyage.

According to Zheng Zhilong's letter, the Hongyi Dutch assembled more than 100 large and small sailing warships this time.Under the leadership of its admiral Luyter, it is now stationed in Batavia.

Luyter is a well-known naval battle general in Europa.Now he is the lieutenant commander of the Hongyi Dutchman, and he is on the expedition to Dayuan Island.He was appointed as the commander of the fleet, and he also had high hopes.

This man was able to defeat the two naval fleets many times during the Anglo-Dutch and Franco-Dutch wars.Now he has become the commander of the expedition fleet at a young age, and he still has a little bit of real ability.

It's a pity that in this era when giant cannon ships are slowly rising.As far as the more than 100 broken ships under his command are concerned, it's hard to say.Without Zheng Zhilong sending troops, he can win alone.

Moreover, it is still the kind of unilateral crushing.

On September [-], Lin Yuhao led his fleet to the waters of Dayuan Island.And Zheng Zhilong also led his own fleet, and had been waiting here for a long time.

Zheng Zhilong brought out Zhenjiang, Beijiang and Xijiang, and another 45 No. [-] Fuchuan whose power system was improved with the help of Lin Yuhao.

The two sides formed a joint fleet, and a total of [-] warships headed towards Nanyang.

This time, Lin Yuhao did his part and became the commander of the United Fleet.

As for Zheng Zhilong, he had contacted the government as early as June.He has already expressed to the government that he is willing to accept the imperial court's offer of security, but he is concerned about how to make Zheng Zhilong an official.

Emperor Apocalypse is still discussing with his courtiers, but the guarantee is also the position of an earl.

On September [-], the United Fleet encountered the expedition fleet of the Hongyi Dutch in the waters off Haojingao.

The sea weather was good that day, the sun was shining brightly, and the visible range was extremely far.Coupled with the assistance of a telescope, it can be used to predict the enemy's opportunity.

More than 20 nautical miles away, the United Fleet discovered the expedition fleet of the Hongyi Dutch.

After sounding the gong of the battle alarm and raising the signal flag, the entire United Fleet quickly took up their positions and prepared for the battle.

As for the expeditionary fleet, it was close to seven nautical miles.It was only then that the United Fleet ahead was discovered, but it was too late at this time.

When approaching five nautical miles, the artillery of the expeditionary fleet had not yet reached its maximum range.But the artillery of the United Fleet can already be fired.

Lin Yuhao looked at the expedition fleet on the opposite side, and ordered with a blank expression: "Command, fire me with full firepower."

As the messenger passed on the order to fire, the entire joint fleet poured the first wave of artillery shells on the expedition fleet in a short period of time.

Both sides have already set up their battles and are going to fight.

Therefore, the United Fleet opened fire.

The expeditionary fleet of the Hongyi Dutch immediately suffered disaster.

The artillery of the United Fleet not only hits far, but they are also explosive shells with strong lethality.

It belongs to the kind of one fried large piece.

And Luyter, who was in command of the flagship, was staring at all this in a daze.

He had already received news that the Eastern Navy.Not to mention that their artillery hits extremely far, and the shells will explode after hitting the ground.

But the young and vigorous Luyter didn't think so. He felt that the governor of Dayuan Island was too incompetent.In order to shirk responsibility for the defeat, he exaggerated and said so.

But the scene in front of him truly proved that the governor of Dayuan Island was not lying.Not to mention being slapped in the face, this naval battle will undoubtedly be lost.

In the first round of bombardment, more than 40 warships in the expeditionary fleet were sunk.

The second round of shelling soon covered it again.

More than 40 warships were bombed and sunk.

When the third round of shelling hit.

More than 30 of the remaining 20 expeditionary fleet warships were sunk again.

Lin Yuhao and Zheng Zhilong looked at the remaining six enemy warships on the distant sea through binoculars.

Lin Yuhao ordered: "Stop shelling and capture them."

In just a quarter of an hour, an encounter at sea was over.This made both Lin Yuhao and Zheng Zhilong sigh: Hey, Invincible is really lonely.

Seeing that his side was surrounded by the opponent, Luyter no longer made any resistance.Instead, he ordered his subordinates to fly the white flag and surrender to the opponent.

As soon as the flagship surrendered, the remaining Dutch warships naturally followed suit.

This sea battle is really impossible to fight, and our side has not fired a single shot.It has been almost wiped out by the enemy army on the opposite side. What is the difference between this and giving away a head thousands of miles away.

Later, under Lin Yuhao's strong persecution.Reluctantly, Luyter became the leader and took Lin Yuhao to their old lair, Batavia.

On September 23, Lin Yuhao and Zheng Zhilong led the joint fleet to Batavia led by the Hongyi Dutch remnants.

Lin Yuhao didn't do anything else when he came to Batavia.

Just to show off my muscles and show these Westerners who have never seen the world.

In the east, there are large warships they have never seen before.Not only is there a large number, but it is also particularly capable of fighting.

Lin Yuhao asked Luyter to take his own people back to the Batavia harbor and tell their Batavia governor.Don't think about revenge anymore, otherwise you don't mind attacking Batavia now.

According to Lin Yuhao's instructions, Luyter led the remnants to flee into the Batavia harbor.

Then he found the governor of Batavia and conveyed what Lin Yuhao said in detail.

The Governor looked at the Ming Fleet lined up outside the harbor.And his own fleet, the few remaining warships.

Although he was unwilling, he still nodded helplessly and said: "Okay, agree to their terms. We won't talk about revenge anymore, and the two sides will live in harmony and peace."

Governor Batavia's wishes were quickly conveyed to Lin Yuhao through a messenger.

The other party is so knowledgeable about current affairs, so I don't want to be too embarrassing.Immediately ordered the fleet to evacuate and return to the waters of Dayuan Island.
