    When treating children, you must be polite first and then treat them with military force.

    Within 30 seconds, if Espinoza didn¡¯t reply, it was time to let the other party see the vitality of the next era.

    The new German gunner command lived up to expectations and fully unified the ship's gun firing method. With the rise and fall of the flag in his hand, nearly a thousand sailors loaded bombs and fired almost completely simultaneously.

    500 artillery pieces were fired at the same time, and the roar of the explosions made people's ears ring. Even the huge battleship group was slightly deflected by this terrible counter-shock force.

    Although she was still far away, Espinoza was already experiencing tinnitus at this time. The superposition of sounds that were too high and too low in decibels activated the protective mechanism of the human ear.

    Espinoza No, the scene in front of him has completely exceeded the limit of his imagination.  The overwhelming cannonballs from far to near seemed like a swarm of bats in an old castle in a horror story, or like the migration of black swans. It was unclear whether it was beautiful or ugly, only shocking.

    Countless cannonballs were like a big net shining over the entire Espinoza fleet.

    At this time, Espinoza felt that she was no longer a noble person, but like a tuna in the water, facing the huge net of the fishing boat, with nowhere to hide.  All he could choose was to squat on the ground, cover his head, and resign himself to his fate.

    The new German artillery instructor was very precise. He divided the ship's artillery into five groups and subdivided the firing distance and angle.  In the face of such a huge sample, the accuracy of the artillery shell is also very high. The gunner only needs to confirm that he can hit the artillery shell within a radius of 100 meters to complete the task.

    Building a ship may take a long time, but destroying it.  It only takes a few seconds.

    The cannonball penetrated the mast of the sailboat, smashed into the deck, blew up the ship in the middle, and set the battleship on fire.

    Espinoza¡¯s proud fleet was almost completely wiped out in a salvo.  He watched helplessly as the sailors jumped from the burning ship into the sea, watched as the broken ship slowly stood up, and then fell into silence.  One ship was hit by more than ten heavy cannons one after another.  It was a wreckage within seconds.

    "Surrender! We surrender!!!" Espinoza shouted to the sailors at the lookout.

    "It's a pity that the sailors are gone a long time ago, and even the observation tower is gone.

    The Espinoza flagship is stronger.  Although it was hit by four artillery rounds, it did not sink so quickly, and the fire was burning.  The sailors had already lost their minds and jumped into the sea.

    Espinoza fell to despair and squatted on the ground.

    "Am I going to dieam I going to die herein this hellish place"

    The adjutant rushed over and shouted: "Admiral, jump off the ship quickly!"

    "Am I going to dieam I going to die here"

    The adjutant had no choice but to put a lifebuoy around Espinoza's belly desperately, and then kicked her out of the sea.

    About half a minute later, the entire Espinoza fleet sank, leaving only those people floating on the sea who were either alive or dead, but were equally afraid.

    Fang Xian held the telescope and admired this scene. The only shortcoming was that it was too fast.

    "Gerhardt. Well done. This is perfect." Fang Xian admired through the telescope.

    Standing next to him is a middle-aged man with brown hair, a serious face and neat hair.  Wearing a smart black leather uniform and an old and vicissitudes of shawl, there are countless medals of honor hidden underneath.  starter

    No matter how you look at it, this guy looks more like an admiral than Fang Xian.

    "Admiral, this is my duty." Gerhardt's voice was as serious as his appearance. "Although our achievements are remarkable, we must also understand this battle correctly. First of all, the enemy does not know the effectiveness of our artillery.  At range, the whole ship is stationary and waiting for shooting, which is equivalent to a target; secondly, our troops also have enough time to aim and group into groups, which undoubtedly greatly increases the accuracy. If the gunners are more skilled, I am confident that the locking range will be further improved.  It¡¯s twice as accurate. Thirdly, the enemy¡¯s ships are all commercial transport, and their armor and durability are average. If they were military warships, I¡¯m afraid it wouldn¡¯t be so smooth.¡±

    "That's right, I like guys like you." Fang Xian praised.

    "It is an honor for me to follow the admiral to resist hegemony, injustice and plunder." Gerhardt bowed and saluted.

    "It doesn't have to be like this. You are a soldier and there is no reason to bend to me." Fang Xian quickly helped him up and then asked, "Gerhardt, how would you fight if you were the admiral on the other side and had all the information?"

    "I will surrender." Gerhardt said truthfully. "With the mobility and firepower of our army, it is almost difficult to escape, let alone win."

    "Oh? So sincere? What if the opponent was a pirate, would you surrender?"

    ?"Yes." Gerhardt didn't feel embarrassed about this. "Surrendering and becoming a prisoner is not a shame for soldiers, but another kind of honor. Every soldier is trained hard by the country with financial resources.  , soldiers have the responsibility to ensure their own safety, because when they put on their uniforms, their bodies no longer belong to them."

    "What a beautiful answer." Fang Xian then asked, "If you don't surrender and must fight to the death, with the mentality of killing as many enemies as you can, how will you fight?"

    "Well" Gerhardt thought for a moment and explained while waving his arms, "First of all, I will spread out the ships as soon as possible, so as to avoid being completely covered by the fire network, and at the same time, it can also disturb the opponent's commander.  position, causing command lag. After that, I will try my best to escape in the opposite direction. If the opponent pursues me, only the bow cannon can be effective, which is equivalent to a 95% reduction in firepower. Moreover, during high-speed navigation, the accuracy of the cannonballs will also be greatly reduced.  , if the helmsman is experienced, he can almost lose 0 damage at this stage. If the enemy wants to sail sideways to deploy the fort, he must chase it to a very close distance before deploying, otherwise we will escape from the range just after launching the design. In this case,  I can take advantage of this and seize the opportunity to turn the helm and fire when the distance is closest to make up for the disadvantage in range. If I'm lucky, I may be able to deal some blows to the enemy before the entire army is annihilated, but it's so satisfying to sink a ship.  It is impossible for an armored battleship to have so many guns."

    Fang Xian was impressed by the former officer's clear logic and judgment.  He is also a person who likes to ponder strategies. He asked with half-complexity and half-curiosity: "That's good, but on the other hand, how do you deal with this roaming tactic?"

    "Surround." Gruhart replied without thinking. "Use the advantage of maneuverability to make the two ships arc forward and block the enemy's retreat. Then you will catch the turtle in the urn."

    "Well then the other way around"

    "When faced with a siege, the only thing you can do is find the right moment and charge to annihilate them all. Try to hit an enemy ship before it sinks. \\First release\\"

    "The other way around"

    "Admiral, the situation of the battle is changing rapidly. After so many rounds of confrontation, we have already seen the outcome."

    "Haha" Fang Xian scratched his head and smiled, "The game of the art of war is really profound."

    "Actually, for us now, we basically don't need the art of war. Our advantages in mobility and firepower are enough to ignore all tactics." Gruhart sighed, "I'm thinking that if one day we face a fleet with the same equipment as ours, we will be equally powerful.  Commander, how will I judge."

    "Yes, this is something you have to think about." Fang Xian laughed, "And I, on the other hand, must try my best to avoid this situation from happening and always ensure the suppression of our own arms."

    "Strategy always takes precedence over tactics." Gruhart said.

    "Well, this battle has opened my eyes. I will allocate 100,000 gold coins to you, and please be sure to train these sailors."

    "I don't need a reward. The allowance you gave me is enough for my consumption." Gruhart declined, "I just hope you can end these chaotic wars and oppression as soon as possible and return the sea to the sea."

    "must."

    ¡­¡­

    Espinoza wakes up and finds a letter in her cage.

    "Your port belongs to me. Your gold coins also belong to me, but I have no intention of possessing your body. I entrust you to a friend. You will have the opportunity to visit India, Indonesia, East Asia and other places. If you are lucky, there may be a circus  I am willing to buy you, so that I can barely eat enough. If you feel lonely, please don¡¯t worry, I estimate that someone will come to accompany you soon. See you later."

    Espinoza held the letter tremblingly and looked around, but there was no one there.

    ¡°Adjutant?! Sailor!!¡±

    No one answered him. It seemed that he was the only one being trafficked.

    "No!!!!"

    In the echo of Espinoza's own howl, there was finally a step coming from far to near.

    "Long time no see." A middle-aged man with short hair looked at him with interest.

    "Youyou are!!!" Espinoza exclaimed, "Kun! Are you Kuhn? We have met before. Do you still remember me?"

    "Of course, you were once the overlord of East Africa, the wealthy Mr. Espinoza."

    "That's good, just remember me!!" Espinoza begged, "Look, although there are some conflicts between our two countries, we are all members of the upper class of Europe and have our own rules. I tell you  You have a piece of information, a vital piece of information."

    "Oh? Interesting."

    "It's more than just interesting" Espinoza said seriously, "Mr. Kuhn, something bad is going on. There is a devil from the east.With the most terrifying fleet in the world, we must unite and annihilate him He is the enemy of all Europe"

    "The whole of Europe? I can't see it."

    "We must pay attention to himThe artillery of that fleet is unimaginable, I can't describe it in words."

    "As far as I know, that fleet's strength in hand-to-hand combat is also incredible."

    "What? Do you know them?"

    "Of course, Fang family navy, right."

    Espinoza said in horror: "As expected of Mr. Kuhn, the information is fast. Now that you are here, I implore you to help me negotiate and buy me out. I will thank you deeply after returning home."

    "Returning to China? I think it's unlikely." Kuhn shook his head, "I regret to tell you that you are now on a ship heading to Malacca."

    "What?" Espinoza was full of surprise, and then she thought that the letter above said that he had a friend.

    "Could it be thatyou and him?!"

    "We are the strongest allies." Kuhn said with a smile, "I said that Fang's enemy is half of Europe, including you, but not us."

    "Asshole!!!" Espinoza finally figured it out and yelled, "Where's the dignity? Where's the dignity of the Dutch?! Cooperate with the barbarians in the east to deal with your own people?"

    "I don't mean to insult you." Kuhn shrugged, "But in my opinion, you are much more barbaric than Fang."

    Espinoza stayed where she was.  Finally he sighed and collapsed on the ground.

    "You will regret it, going against us."

    "It's not a matter of being against each other, Espinoza, you seem to have forgotten that we are businessmen." Kuhn sighed, "Businessmen. It is true that they are only interested in profit and care about everything, but there is a bottom line. Crossing that line,  You¡¯re not even worthy of being a businessman.¡±

    As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper.  Still in front of Espinoza.

    "This is a document from your royal family, read it yourself."

    Espinoza picked up the second piece of bad news.

    "Espinoza is a disgrace to Portugal. He frantically tramples on the bottom line of morality and humanity, reintroducing traces of barbarism that have disappeared into Europe. It was unanimously decided to strip Espinoza of her nationality and  With the title, he will no longer be allowed to set foot on the Libyan peninsula."

    "How is it possible?!" If Espinoza can still understand the letter left by Fang Xian, then this royal document will make people crazy, "How could the royal family do this? I have no merit and suffering for the country.  Lao? This is impossible!"

    "Nothing is impossible." Kuhn looked at Espinoza lying on the ground with an expressionless face.  "Whether it is Southeast Asia, the Indian Ocean or Africa, there will never be a Portuguese fleet. All you have left is Lisbon."

    "War? The Netherlands declared war on us?"

    "There is no need to declare war." Kuhn said with a ferocious smile, "Fang has eliminated your overseas foundation, and Portugal's era has passed. To punish you, we only need a little diplomatic and military pressure."

    Kuhn made another small dot with his finger, then turned and left.

    Espinoza collapsed on the spot with emptiness. No matter the sea or the motherland, there was no place for him.

    The Fang family navy made long-term adjustments in Sofala.

    After freeing nearly a thousand slaves imprisoned in Espinoza, these black brothers were extremely excited.  Fang Xian's status in their eyes was almost the savior in religious beliefs, unparalleled.

    As for that naval battle, it has become a well-known story. Everyone said that the firepower of the Fang family navy was like a fishing net, and no ship could hope to escape.

    The Fang family navy has become famous in the local area, and most people are more willing to believe that this Easterner is the savior rather than the next colonist.

    With the complete destruction of the Portuguese ocean-going navy, there is no possibility for them to turn around in a few years. What will greet them will be all-round suppression by Spain and the Netherlands.

    Fang Xian himself did not expect that after the annihilation of the Espinoza fleet, there would be a liberation movement in the East African ports. The black brothers would rise up and start a resistance and revolutionary war.

    The Portuguese no longer had supplies, were outnumbered, and could barely hold on. If they were lucky, they could escape to the sea, but if they were unlucky, they would go directly to meet God or Satan.

    Of course, there are still a large number of Portuguese people seeking asylum from the Fang Navy.

    After cleaning up Espinoza, Fang Xian has no intention of taking more revenge on the Portuguese. After all, not everyone is at fault. Of course, the most critical factor is that he likes Portuguese football. Perhaps the descendants of these people  There will be figures like Figo and Ronaldocharacters

    Therefore, the liberator of East Africa, Admiral Fang Xian, called on the black brothers to put aside their hatred, grant forgiveness to outsiders, and just let them leave this land. There is no need to kill them all.

    After Fang Xian¡¯s appeal, some of the sane black brothers finally stopped, and the Portuguese were tied up in groups to the Fang Navy.  Fang Xian had no choice but to allocate some money to build a homecoming fleet to send these people back to Lisbon regularly.

    At the same time, a large number of black brothers expressed their willingness to join Fang Xian's fleet and fire at the enemies who oppressed them.

    For black brothers, Fang Xian naturally does not reject anyone who comes.

    Although these people are as skinny as refugees now, as long as they have enough to eat and have suitable commanders, the physical fitness and combat power of black people are unparalleled.

    From then on, the mixed crew of sailors in the Fang family navy also began to take shape.

    The iron triangle of brothel sailors, black men and German gunners officially appeared.

    The three are mixed and complement each other, including the technology and precision of the Germans, the tyranny of the brothel sailors, and of course the muscles of the black brothers; on the contrary, when the three types of people are separated, the shortcomings of being in a group are also weakened, plus  Under the training of Deputy Commander Gerhart, the Fang Navy's comprehensive capabilities in both gunnery and hand-to-hand combat have been improved.

    During this period, the battlefield in East Asia also temporarily subsided.

    The Japanese people, who had just recovered, were so confident that they actually built another fleet in an attempt to break the contract and invade the East China Sea.  The Governor of Zhili had repeatedly called for emergency help from the Fang family navy, and Fang Xiancai had to let the main fleet rescue him and head to Africa alone.

    Back in East Asia, the two armored fleets and Chinese sailing ships once again taught the Japanese a lesson.

    It is worth mentioning that when returning home, Azisha met her sons. Her sons said that Napang was too poor and that this sea area was no longer available for grabs, so they followed Azisha again  In other words, the fleet led by Azisha is all island soldiers.

    When these villains met the Japanese warriors, they were matched against each other. After a bloody battle, the Fang family navy won again. Although the losses this time were not as exaggerated as the battle losses when they came to the island, the Japanese navy still took Fang away.  The lives of hundreds of sailors in the domestic navy were lost.

    According to Fang Xian¡¯s instructions and the request of the Governor-General of Zhili, this time there was no further laxity towards the Japanese state.  They were prohibited from going out to sea except for fishing, and the huge compensation for 20 years was enough for them to endure for a long time.

    These indemnities were received by the Qing government, and Fang Xian only took a small cut, about 90%

    After that, the Li Huamei fleet was once again responsible for peacekeeping in East Asia. As long as it saw a Japanese armed ship, it would be directly sunk no matter where it was.

    Others rushed to Sofala to start a new reorganization.  (Welcome, your support is my biggest motivation.)
