Chapter 297
Boom.
Daming's iron armored ship is still constantly firing.
The New Spanish fleet has been unable to collapse.
They faced the iron armor without any resistance at all.
Only those who can do are escape.
After marcting with a light ship, Maloska immediately issued an order to escape from the east to the east.
Of course, Marxca knows that the possibility of continuing to fight no longer exists.
They have no power to resist the iron armored ships that can resist Daming.
Maybe only the iron armored ship can be able to deal with the iron armored ship -no, the battle between this iron armor may be a long -lasting long -lasting battle.
This iron boat covered with steel armor wants to sink it. With the power of today's artillery, it is too difficult.
At this moment.
The wreckage of wooden warships floating on the entire sea.
The flame burning smoke covered the sight, giving the New Spanish fleet residual ships out of the battlefield.
When Manfan's light ship walked eastward.
Marxca couldn't help but look back at the battlefield that was getting farther and farther away in the distance.
"Time has changed."
He whispered.
As a general official of a traditional navy, what he learned in his life was completely subverted today.
The kind of prestigious battleship with three or four -layer cannon warehouses is now worthless waste.
Because no matter how strong wooden shell boats, the bombardment can not be blocked inside the ship.
And this flowering bullet cannot deal with the thick steel armor of the iron armor.
Obviously.
The future ocean will be ruled by steam iron armored ships.
And before the cannon that can break through the steel armor was invented.
This iron armor -class ship is invincible.
There is no need to be a large iron armored ship that can sail 5,000 miles.
You only need a small steam iron armored ship that swims near the sea to defend the coastline.
Any army like the Daming Empire without a naval country as long as it is gritted to make or buy several iron armored ships.
Deploy in your own coast.
There is no way to be a traditional naval country like British, Spain. There is no way.
He finally knew why the British people have not appeared on the coast of the East now -it seems that the news is true. The British Oriental Interference Fleet has finished!
"This damn Britain!"
Marluska smashed his fist on the side of the ship with his fist.
"Brother Lieutenant General, where are we going now?"
Governor of Manila Valeria said darkly.
Marxca heard the words, and was also trapped.
After a long time, he said: "We are now replenishing enough to support more than a month. Go to Hawaii!"
Maloska said.
Hawaii was an island discovered by European navigators more than ten years ago. After that, a large number of businessmen from the East and the West were flocked. Now it is a local chief who is a local king of Hawaii.
Although this local strategy location is important.
But because on the one hand, it was found that the colonial empires such as Britain and France had not had time to start.
On the other hand, it is because the route to Hawaii only discovered the route from west to east.
That is, from the port of Japan, drift from the ocean flow from the west to the east to Hawaii by the North Pacific.
In fact, there is also a route from the southwest of the American continent to Hawaii, but it has not been discovered yet.
Therefore, the major colonial empires have not yet had time to reach out to the land of Hawaii.
The Ming Empire had contact with the Hawaiian Kingdom first, but the Hawaiian Kingdom had no intention of claiming vassal status.
So for Malosca, take the remaining fleet to Hawaii.
It's the only way.
As for whether the Chinese will pursue them?
They can't control that much.
What's more, if they can resupply in Hawaii, they still have a chance to return to New Spain.
"We have to keep a fleet."
Marowska said.
Valeriano nodded.
Of course he knew what Marosca meant.,
If the New Spanish fleet is completely destroyed.
Then the entire Pacific Ocean belongs entirely to the Chinese.
And if the Viceroyalty of New Spain could have a fleet deployed on the west coast of the American continent.
That at least.
This fleet can be used as a breakup fleet.
Make the Chinese pay for the North American fleet.
This can buy Spain some time.
A big win!
All the soldiers of the Ming Navy cheered.
All the large battleships of the Spanish New Spain Fleet were sunk in this battle.
Those who ran away were all light and fast ships with few weapons.
With the armament of these light ships, they would never dare to appear on the coast of Ming Dynasty and harass the coastline of Ming Dynasty.
These Spanish rats that the Ming Navy had been searching for for a year were finally eliminated!
Everyone in the Ming Navy can breathe a sigh of relief.
"Pursue! Keep pursuing! Even if we chase them to the end of the world, we can't let them escape!"
Cai Qian said loudly.
At this moment.
Zheng Xiaoyi took a small boat and boarded the Xuzhou.
The first words he said when he met Cai Qian were: "Commander Cai, this is a God-given opportunity!"
Cai Qian was stunned, rolled his eyes slightly, and lowered his voice: "Brother Zheng, where is the God-given opportunity."
Let’s talk about the origin of the officers in the Ming Dynasty’s navy.
In fact, it is mainly divided into three parts.
The first part is the three hundred old brothers who received training in orthodox European military schools in Europe.
The second part is officers like Zheng Xiaoyi who have a professional background.
The third part is about Cai Qian, a pirate leader who was born as a pirate and received "officer assault training".
But Cai Qian knew it very well.
Three hundred old brothers are now in charge.
The future will definitely be those disciples of the Emperor.
As for them, they can only seek to achieve meritorious service on the battlefield. If they can be granted the title of marquis, they will be regarded as entering the noble class.
“In Hawaii!”
