Huang Fei gave an order, and the ironclad battleship Wanli immediately opened fire.
The three Wandan battleships quickly turned into a pile of waste wood amidst the rumbling guns.
The Banten soldiers on the battleship were either bombarded into meatloaf or buried in fish belly.
In an instant, more than a dozen Wandan warships were all sunk.
The Ming people who escaped from the two cargo ships knelt on the deck and thanked the officers and men of the Ming Fleet.
"Thanks to the Ming Fleet for saving our overseas Ming people from death. We are willing to follow the Ming Fleet back to China and do our part for the country..." Fastest update.tv./ m.tv./
Zhu Cihong could understand their feelings. He was in the same situation as these Ming people when he first left the capital.
"Quickly, let the battleship get closer to them, I want to have a few words with them."
"Yes"
When the warship approached the cargo ship, Zhu Cihong shouted to those Ming people who were in trouble:
"My compatriots, we are all one family. Let's all live together. Now that Batavia is under the control of Daming, you don't want to go back to Daming. Batavia still needs you, so go back!"
Hearing that Batavia was actually controlled by Ming, the Ming people on the cargo ship were happy, and at the same time thanked Zhu Cihong again:
"Thank you, General, for saving your life. We will follow your advice and return to Batavia immediately."
They didn't know that this kind little general was the Crown Prince of Ming Dynasty, so they thought he was the fleet commander.
Seeing the two cargo ships heading towards Batavia, Huang Fei immediately ordered the fleet to sail faster.
Ten kilometers of sea area, it won't take long, and the Ming fleet will approach the coast of Wanten soon.
Huang Fei's order:
"Soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, if you see the coast in front of you, carpet-bomb the governor to clear all obstacles for His Royal Highness and King Ding to land in Wandan."
"Yes"
Chapter 501 The Arrogant Native
"Rumble..."
"Rumble..."
With Huang Fei's order, more than 200 naval guns on one side of the five armored warships opened fire.
More than 200 flowering and solid bullets were poured into the coastal defense of Banten in an instant.
Round after round of explosions of flowering bombs and cruelty of solid bullets, Banten's fragile coastal defenses were quickly cleared.
They don't have as many shore artillery as Batavia, but there are more native soldiers.
Several shore artillery were destroyed in an instant, and more than 1000 unprepared indigenous soldiers also received lunch boxes.
After Zhu Cilang observed carefully with a telescope, he waved his hand:
"Soldiers of the Pingkou Army, today is the first battle that our Pingkou Army has fought alone since we left Shaanxi. We must do a good job. All the rebels will not be left behind, and land!"
"Don't worry, Your Highness, we will never let you down, go ahead..."
No one thought that their young leader, Zhou Da, was actually the Crown Prince of Ming Dynasty.
Originally, he was worried that his identity as a bandit would be looked down upon by the regular army of the Ming Dynasty.
Now they suddenly know that Zhou Da is actually the crown prince of Ming Dynasty, and they have become the prince's pro-army.
The morale of all the generals of the Pingkou Army was high, and they took up their rifles and wailed and landed from the transport ship.
The two brothers Zhu Cilang and Zhu Cijiong also raised their rifles and charged behind them.
Wan Dan was not prepared for the sudden landing of the Ming army.
Under the leadership of Zhu Cihong and Zhu Cijiong, the Ming army swept all the way, and arrived at Cirebon with almost no decent resistance.
Despite its small size, Banten has a population of hundreds of thousands because it is an important agricultural area and a spice production base.
Their troops also number about [-], and almost all of them are soldiers, but almost all of them use cold weapons.
There are only 4000 real firearms troops, including [-] flintlock guns and [-] Vulcan guns.
The Netherlands has not moved them for the time being, and it has something to do with their large population.
There are not many cities in Banten, and almost all the troops are gathered in Cirebon and Banten City.
The first city that Zhu Cihong and Zhu Cijiong led the Ming army to capture was Cirebon.
The main power of Banten is now in the hands of Prime Minister Bumi, who has completely emptied Mullah Sultan.
The leader of the Cirebon garrison is Hans, the son of Prime Minister Bumi, with more than 2 troops.
Wan Dan also hated the Ming people just like other aborigines, and they always felt that the Ming people had robbed them of their jobs.
The Ming people in Banten are having a hard time now, because they are often suppressed by the local aborigines because they are too hardworking.
Hans did not take advantage of Mingren, and he already regarded Mingren as his own ATM.Mobile terminal m.tv./
Hans is greedy and lustful, so he robbed many beauties from his house, including Japanese and Ming people, as well as local aboriginal women.
Hans's job now is to watch beautiful women dance, let them drink with him, and play shameful games with them.
I was intoxicated in the gentle village every day, and when I had no money to spend, I ordered people to go out and scrape those smart merchants.
Most Ming people dare not protest, otherwise they will be thrown into the sea by Hans.
Today, he had to rob a lot of smart people to work as laborers. Hans was in a good mood. He pulled two beauties to do shameful things, and showed off his magic weapon from time to time.
"Boom... my lord, the big thing is not good, the Ming army has come to kill me."
Suddenly the door was knocked open, and Hans who was working was startled.
Little Hans was also so frightened that he lost his fighting power and was dejected.
The good thing was interrupted, Hans was furious, got up and gave the visitor two big slaps:
"Clap clap..."
"Your family is dead? What a fuss, how could the Ming army appear here..."
The messenger covered his old red and swollen face, stammering:
