The Pirate Fleet and the Dutch Fleet looked at each other from a distance from the sea several miles away. It was obvious that more than 200 main pirate warships did not scare the Dutch. At this time, the Western powers swept the world on the sea and had never encountered any opponents, so their navy had a sense of pride and confidence to overlook the entire world! They would not be scared by a group of indigenous fleets. Please remember

Ryukyu Governor Putmans stood on the deck and asked his soldiers to speak to Zheng Zhilong in flag language!

In fact, different countries use different flag languages. Theoretically, the Dutch flag language is impossible to be sent to people from the Da Mengguo, but Putmans knew that Zheng Zhilong could understand it because he had been a translator under the Dutch for a long time.

"Only Nicholas, the emperors of your Da Meng Kingdom have all been defeated by us and were beaten to the point of being unknown. What is the limelight for you, a pirate? Go back to Macau Port! The next time should be the time for negotiation." Putmans didn't really want to fight with the pirates, because it would be useless to win. The Dutch wanted the trade privileges of the Da Meng Kingdom, which had nothing to do with the pirates.

Zheng Zhilong could indeed understand the Dutch flag language. He smiled and wanted to order his flag soldiers to reply, but... his flag soldiers only knew the flag orders used by pirates. The Dutch did not know that, so he had to pick up the flag himself, walked to the bow of the ship, and responded to the opposite side in the flag language: "Putmans, let me tell you one thing... If you want to negotiate, you should talk to me first. I have been appointed as the Five Tiger Guerrilla General of the Dameng Kingdom's court. From today on, I will have the final say on the southeastern sea of ​​Dameng Kingdom!"

Putmans was stunned and couldn't help asking his subordinates who knew Da Mengguo more: "What is the Five Tigers Guerrilla General?"

"Well... there is no temporary position to do a fixed job..." a Chinese official replied.

After hearing this, Putmans couldn't help laughing: "Did the court of the big cute country cheat him on playing?"

Just then Putmans saw Zheng Zhilong's flag saying: "I already have a privateer license from Da Mengguo..."

"What?" Putmans was shocked and couldn't help but take off the hat on his head and throw it on the deck: "Private license? Damn, Damn, the country of Moe actually issued this thing? This is a privilege that only our Western European navy has. This country of indigenous and monkeys understands this?"

Since privateer verbs have already been verified, Putmans knew that this hurdle would definitely not be avoided. Because when he was in the West, he had seen many Western pirates with privateer licenses, and he knew very well what it means to have this license... Those who have this license can rob other countries' ships at will, launch attacks on hostile territories, and control routes... In short, for the sake of interests, do whatever they want, and all his actions will be supported by the state~~-Updated~~.

Putmans himself had a privateer license issued by the Dutch king! This was also the most powerful weapon in his hand and the most proud weapon. Unexpectedly, the other party also had it. This time... the other party stood in the same position as him in political status. Zheng Zhilong was right. To negotiate, he had to talk with Zheng Zhilong.

Putmans spread his hands depressedly and said with a flag: "Official Nicholas, let's talk now. What I want is the exclusive trade rights of Da Mengguo. As long as Da Mengguo gives me the trade rights and ceded the Penghu Islands to us, we will not attack Da Mengguo's territory. Oh, by the way. There are also compensations, and hand over the murderer who stole the "Flying Dutchman"..."

Zheng Zhilong smiled and shook his head, and replied to the flag saying, "You want so much, but I only want one thing..."

"What?" Putmansquinted.

"Your head!" Zheng Zhilong laughed.

Putmans was immediately angry and he wanted to negotiate seriously, but he didn't expect that Zheng Zhilong was here to spend the time.

It turned out that Zheng Zhilong had already received clear instructions from Yi Yun and had nothing to talk about with the invaders, so he would just be beaten to death. However, due to the habit of pirates, Zheng Zhilong had to tease the other party before beating people, and then he talked nonsense with him for a long time.

After the nonsense, both sides raised their hands almost at the same time and waved forward heavily...

"The sails are full of drums..."

"Reloading shells..."

"Switch the rudder..."

"Pay attention to the wind direction and ocean currents..."

The sailors on the deck began to shout, and the sailors on the watchtower also shouted loudly: "The enemy ship is southeast of the southeast, four miles away..."

"Be careful to keep the battle line!" Putmans shouted.

"Let the Dutch know what the art of war is pirates!" Zheng Zhilong also shouted.

The fleets of both sides became excited almost in an instant and rushed towards each other. The slightly yellow eastern hard sail was getting closer and closer to the white Western soft sail.

At this time Putmans saw Yi Yun's flagship and couldn't help but curse: "Damn it, that's the flying Dutchman! It was actually used by the enemy to deal with us. Hey, there are words printed on it, what is it written?"

A Chinese publican next to him replied: "Your Excellency, the printed on it is the 'Flying Henan people'."

Putmans: "…"

"Damn monkey!" Putmans cursed: "The distance is approaching, the left rudder is turned, the battle line is auxiliary... ready to bombard..."

"Huh? Your Excellency, the enemy can actually be on the battlefield!" A non-commissioned officer shouted.

It turned out that while the Dutch were turning eight ships in a row and planned to arrange battle lines, the pirate ships under Zheng Zhilong, who were in a mess, looked chaotic, turned around at the same time, and it seemed that they were also setting battle lines. And unlike the Dutch, they were not a battle lines, but several battle lines. About ten to twenty ships were a group, and each group was lengthened into a battle lines, and more than two hundred ships opposite, there were actually a dozen battle lines listed.

Among these dozen battle lines, the most powerful battle lines are Zheng Zhilong's flagship and Yiyun's flagship. This line includes Zheng Zhilong's flagship, the flying Henan people, Li Huamei's flagship, Huberian, Zheng Zhihu's big blessing ship, Zheng Zhibao's big blessing ship, and other flagships of the Fengyun Shibazhi leader, which can be said to be a collection of flagships.

The line was pulled out, and even the Dutch couldn't help but gasp!

"Your Excellency, the other party seems... not afraid of fighting with us!" a non-commissioned officer shouted: "They also mastered the battle line tactics."

"Don't worry, the quality of artillery is far from the ordinary!" Putmans said confidently: "There is no professional artillery in the Dameng Kingdom."

"Boom!" At this moment, the flying Henan people started fire first, and only one shot was fired. This gun was fired by the flying Henan people's head cannon. The head cannon weighed 10,000 kilograms. In terms of the weight of the gun body, the body tube, the reloaded gunpowder, the diameter of the gun barrel, etc., they were almost ten times that of the thousand-jin Flang machine cannon, so the range was much longer. Other cannons could not fire before they even entered the range, but Yi Yun's head cannon could roar first to show his national prestige!

The black shells slashed through the sky, carrying a red light, and landed on the sea about eight meters away next to Putmans' flagship, stirring up a huge sand column. The sand column rushed at least ten meters high, and the dust raised was floating.

"Ten thousand kilograms of cannon! It was shot by professional artillery!" Putmans was startled, and other Dutch people were also stunned.

"Don't be afraid, they only have one artillery, or ten, but there will never be too many!" Putmans shouted after coming back to his senses: "There are very few artillery soldiers in the Great Mansion, and this information will not be wrong! Get close to the past and use our side cannons to tell the monkeys of the Great Mansion who is the overlord of the sea."

At this time, a battle line composed of miscellaneous pirates was already alongside the Dutch. Both sides opened fire at the same time, and shells shuttled between the two battle lines. Sure enough, the cannons of these pirates were all set by ordinary people, and their power and accuracy were seriously insufficient. Just like the battleships of the Beiyang Navy, after a round of artillery attacks, these warships suffered a great loss. A large hole was made in the sideways, and the deck was covered with pits.

The Dutch people were so angry that they laughed loudly.

What’s interesting is that on the flagship battle line on Yiyun’s side, there were also laughter from the 18 Zhishes: “Guo Huaiyi, your fleet is too bad, you’re at a loss, we’re so laughing to death.”

It turned out that this miscellaneous pirate battle line was a fleet of a pirate named Guo Huaiyi in Fengyun Eighteen Zhi. This pirate named Guo Huaiyi was dressed as a Confucian scholar and seemed quite knowledgeable. He spread his hands depressedly and said, "You guys who are scattered, my fleet is the first one. In terms of courage, my man won. What qualifications do you have to laugh at me for losing?"

Guo Huaiyi's battle line was quickly forced to open. The Dutch continued to rush over fearlessly. Another round of naval guns was bombarded. Zheng Zhibao's pirate team also suffered a loss and retreated aside with holes.

Next, He Bin's troops in the Eighteen Zhizhi also suffered a great loss and were almost sunk a lucky ship by a round of artillery attacks by the Dutch.

"Okay, show the enemy as weak, and let the opponent underestimate the enemy, almost done!" Zheng Zhilong waved his hand and said, "Press up the flagship battle line, let the Dutch see our true strength."

"Okay! Come on!"

Fengyun Eighteen Zhi was ready to go, and more than a dozen main battleships were arranged in battle lines and rushed towards the Dutch fleet. The first one was Zheng Zhilong's second brother, Zheng Zhihu's flagship. There is a proverb in the southeastern sea, "Dragon Wisdom Tiger Brave". This "Tiger Brave" refers to Zheng Zhihu. Every time he charges, his flagship will take the lead.
