Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Since the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, there have been friendly exchanges with China, and many residents of Fujian Province have come here.

From 1571 to 1898, its land was occupied by Spain, and Spain was called Greater Luzon.

Luzon is rich in gold, rich in products and prosperous in trade.

He sent envoys to visit China three times from 1372 (the fifth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty) to 1410 (the eighth year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty). The Ming Dynasty also sent envoys to apply for employment in 3.

In the 15th and 16th centuries, merchants in the southeast coast of China had frequent contacts with Luzon, and some overseas Chinese began to live in Luzon.

In the 16th century, Spanish colonists invaded the northern Philippines and encountered stubborn resistance in Manila.

Under the command of Raja (King) Suleiman, Manila fought bravely against Spanish aggression.

Suleiman was killed in a naval battle on June 1571, 6.Later, Luzon was gradually conquered by Spain.

Spanish colonists also occupied parts of Taiwan.

Later, with the arrival of the Dutch, the Dutch drove the Spaniards out of Taiwan.

The Spaniards were the happiest when they learned that Ming was planning to attack the island of Taiwan occupied by the Dutch.

The Spanish governor in Luzon believes that the opportunity for the Spaniards to colonize Taiwan again has come again.

After some preparations, the Spanish governor sent five warships to watch the battle in the Taiwan Strait.

When the two sides are at war, the Spanish side is not prepared to make a move, they want to let Da Ming and the Dutch fight against each other.

As long as there is a fierce battle between the two sides, no matter if it is Ming or the Dutch, both sides will definitely lose.

If the Dutch were defeated, they would send troops to defeat the Ming fleet and seize Taiwan.

In fact, the defeat of Ming Dynasty is what Spain most wants to see.

They would take the opportunity to beat the weary Dutchman mercilessly.

Taiwan was thus included as a Spanish colony.

The Spaniards calculated well, but they miscalculated the strength of the Ming army.

At that time, naval battles were difficult to fight, and it was difficult to tell the winner in a short time when the strength was not much different.

This group of colonists thought that Ming and the Dutch would have to fight for several days to decide the outcome.

How did they know that the Ming army's battle to recover Taiwan was over before they came to the battlefield.

When they were only a dozen kilometers away from Taiwan, they hadn't heard the sound of gunfire yet, and a soldier came to report:

"Report to the captain, it is only a dozen kilometers away from Taiwan, and the fleet has not found any signs of war."

Hearing the report from the soldiers, the commander-in-chief of the Spanish fleet, Villa, picked up the binoculars, looked in the direction of Taiwan for a while, and then shook his head:

"The speed of the Ming army is too slow, and it should not have crossed the strait yet.

Order the fleet to slow down and break down five kilometers away from Taiwan, where we watched the excitement. "

"Yes"

The orderly immediately turned and went out.

Villa picked up his pipe and started puffing on the smoke.

In this way, five Spanish warships cruised slowly more than ten kilometers away from Taiwan.

They are waiting for the fierce exchange of fire between the Dutch and the Ming battleship.

Just when the Spanish captain was getting annoyed, a soldier came to report:

"Report to the captain, we found two strange ships ahead, they seem to be the new warships of the Ming Dynasty, they asked us to leave the waters of the Ming Dynasty."

Villa took another puff of cigarette before saying:

"Daming battleship? Don't they take back Taiwan?"

"Report to the captain, we really don't know this, but they asked us to leave immediately."

Villa sneered:

"It's a joke. The Spanish Royal warships come and go to any sea area at will. Why do they let us leave and tell them that we are sailing freely."

"Yes"

The orderly agreed and turned to go out.

Soon, the Spanish warships played the semaphore of free navigation, so that the Ming warships would not affect their free navigation.

Zheng Chenggong and Li Dingguo are discussing Taiwan's reform and the garrison of troops.

Suddenly the soldiers came to report:

"Captain, the unidentified warship that appeared ahead has been investigated, and it is the Royal Spanish Navy."

Zheng Chenggong frowned:

"Oh, it must be a Spanish warship. They came to see the show for a purpose. It's a pity that they came late. I ordered them to withdraw from the Daming sea area immediately."

Soon the soldiers of the Ming army came to report:

"Captain, the Spanish fleet ignored us at all. They said they were sailing freely, so let us not interfere."

"Snapped……"

Zheng Chenggong stood up, slammed the table, and cursed:

"It's simply unreasonable. Immediately tell the group of turtle grandchildren and tell them to leave immediately, otherwise I will let them feed the sharks."

Chapter 404

Ridiculous free sailing.

It turns out that in the 21st century, the set that Lao Mei often played in the South China Sea was learned from the Spaniards.

Although Zheng Chenggong doesn't know what free navigation is, he absolutely does not allow the Spaniards to show off their power in the Taiwan Strait.

Zheng Chenggong's domineering omission made Li Dingguo laugh out loud:

"You are very good, Dudu, what if the Spaniards can't understand our language, are you really fighting?"

Zheng Chenggong smiled proudly:
