Chapter 819: Fight for the Cape of Good Hope

There is no need for Cruzo to order, his men have already launched a counterattack on their own.

There is no such silly army if you don't fight back after being bombarded.

They had to wait until Cruzot's order, they were blown up long ago.

Before the first round of shelling by the Chinese Army was over, they had already begun to fight back.

The Netherlands attaches great importance to this place, because most of their colonies are in Asia. South America is the territory of Spain and Portugal, and North America is the territory of Britain and France.

The colonies are all in Asia, and the fleet needs to pass through here.

Occupying this place can guarantee one's own air routes, while at the same time stifling the development momentum of Britain in India.

The current development of the United Kingdom has surpassed Spain and the Netherlands, leading the entire Europe.

Without restraining it, Britain can dominate Europe.

So they deployed a strong defensive force here. There were forty or fifty artillery pieces, but they were all large-caliber artillery pieces, mainly aimed at the British.

They never expected that the opponent they encountered first was a Chinese.

These artillery pieces are quite powerful. If you deal with wooden ships, one or two cannons can be used to reimburse one ship.

However, when their self-thinking shells of infinite power fell on the Hongyuan, a scene that made the Dutch desperate happened.

The iron ball hit the ship's side of the Hongyuan ship, causing the Hongyuan ship to sway, and then the iron ball fell into the sea.

Not to mention penetrating the ship's side of the Hongyuan, and even leaving no traces.

The Hongyuan is Dahua’s latest battleship, one step further than the previous semi-iron armored ship, and the first pure iron armored ship in the true sense.

It seems that Hongyuan is not big, but the weight of the hull is at least three or four times that of the same size.

To this end, Hongyuan also sacrificed a certain speed.

This sacrifice, in exchange for a strong protective ability.

Not to mention the original Dutch artillery, even if it was fired by the field artillery of the Chinese army, it could not be sunk.

The Hongyuan, costing nearly 200,000 yuan, was even hailed as an unsinkable warship.

This time, it is its debut show, which is specifically to test the actual combat performance.

After these test data are transmitted back to China and proved to be effective, those semi-iron armored ships may face elimination, and pure iron armored ships will become the mainstream in the future.

The shaking of the Hongyuan caused several inexperienced rookies on the ship to fall. One of them knocked his head on the fort and fainted.

This is the only result of the Dutch shelling.

Fortunately, at least it caused casualties to the Chinese army, and it would not be zero gain.

Of course, the Dutch will not be relieved.

They were all frightened by the protective capabilities of the Chinese warships. The shelling of direct hits had no effect, so how to fight?

What's more terrible is that Dahua's artillery caused great damage to them.

A shell fell near a cannon, and the crew of that gun was dealt with directly.

Another shell fell in front of the cannon, destroying the cannon directly.

Some artillery began to flee, trying to escape to Lingbao.

There are still some artillery soldiers who continue to resist, and there are also desperadoes among them.

At the same time, the Dutch warships in the harbor have also moved towards the Chinese army in an attempt to carry out the battle.

Their artillery has limited power and can only use this method.

Moreover, they have another advantage, and that is quantity.

The main battleship that the Chinese army came to attack consisted of only three ships, and they had to battle the coastal defense artillery.

The Dutch had eight warships in the harbor, and they had much more troops.

Eight warships rushed towards the Chinese army, which forced the Chinese army to turn its muzzle.

The distance between the two sides is not far, and after the adjustment of the Chinese army, the Dutch are already very close.

However, at this moment, the Chinese artillery aimed at the invading enemy and fired again.

A shell hit a warship, pierced the ship's side directly, and the shell shot into the cabin and exploded.

The entire deck was lifted off, and the wooden hull looked like paper in front of the Chinese Army’s artillery.

In a wave of shelling, the Chinese army destroyed two Dutch warships.

At the same time, the machine guns on the Hongyuan began to show off.

Heavy machine guns are defensive artifacts, and of course the Navy will not dislike them.

Artillery is used for offense, and machine guns are used for defense.

With the advantage of equipment, the Chinese army no longer likes to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy.

In fact, the Chinese army’s hand-to-hand combat capability has been declining drastically in the past two years.

Soldiers cherish small lives even more, and are not as brave as they were at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

However, this kind of problem is temporarily concealed by Dahua's weapon superiority.

The machine gun equipped on the Hongyuan is different from the machine gun equipped by the army.

For mobility, the Army pays more attention to the weight of machine guns.

The navy does not need to consider this issue, and naturally prefers power.

Therefore, the machine guns on naval ships have very large calibers. It can be said that they are machine guns, but it is also said that they are guns.

To be precise, these are machine guns with amazing power and amazing rate of fire.

A series of machine gun bullets hit the Dutch ship, beating the Dutch crying father and mother.

That seed bomb can penetrate two or three people.

The sawdust from the hull also flew around, and the soldiers hiding behind the planks were also killed.

There is no safe place on the entire ship.

Many soldiers chose to jump into the sea to escape, and staying on the boat was just looking for death.

When the Dutch rushed to the Chinese army, only four of the eight ships were left, and two of them had very little personnel left on them.

Only two of them still maintain combat power, but it does not mean how good they are, just because the Chinese army did not target them.

However, they are next.

As a result, the captain of one of the ships hurriedly ordered the white flag to be raised and surrendered. He didn't want to be fired by the Chinese army's machine guns.

Getting closer can only start the battle, but it does not mean that the Chinese army can be won immediately.

With the firepower of the Chinese army, shooting at them for two minutes, they would have killed more than half of them.

Therefore, there is no hope of winning, and surrender is the kingly way.

Ever since, the officers and soldiers of the Chinese Army saw a very shocking scene.

The Dutch went through hardships and paid a heavy price in order to rush to themselves and surrender.

If you knew this, why didn't you just surrender?

The Dutch didn't know the thinking of the Chinese soldiers, and if they knew it, they might vomit blood and scold their mother.

They don't want to surrender, but they don't want to die.

Before coming, they didn't know that the firepower of the Chinese army would be so fierce, and it was simply a unilateral massacre on them.

They didn't vomit blood, but Cruzo who was watching the battle on the shore vomited blood, and his fleet rushed over and surrendered so arrogantly.

If this were to be said, it would be a shame.

The fleet surrendered, and the artillery on the shore fled, Cruzo had lost the power to counterattack, and could only retreat everyone into the Lingbao for the last stubborn resistance.
