Otherwise, the best training is practical combat. After six months of high-intensity navigation and combat, the sailors of the coast guard troops have become more and more accustomed to operating large ships on the bumpy oceans and have grown very rapidly.

While quickly heading south to seize the entrance of Futian Bay, the Punishment Fleet also completed the entire fleet during its voyage. Twenty-one warships formed a neat column and quickly blocked the entire entrance of the Bay.

Seeing that the Ming Dynasty warships did not mean to pounce on them immediately, Colonel Pinto on the Duke of Goa breathed a sigh of relief at first, as if the Ming Dynasty was shocked by its huge warships and did not dare to act rashly.

But immediately, he frowned again because the tactics adopted by the Ming Dynasty were so strange and familiar.

It is said that he has never seen Ming Dynasty people or even Asians adopt such a queue method before... They always divide their fleet into front, rear, central, left, right, etc. according to the army's thinking, and try to start a platoon battle.

Of course, this is understandable, because for fleets lacking heavy firepower, the so-called naval battle is just a land battle that moves the battlefield to the sea. Those stupid Mediterranean countries also fought bloody battles with the Ottomans in this way.

But countries like Portugal and Spain, which have the most advanced naval forces, are no longer doing this. As early as decades ago, the Royal Navigation School of Sagrace had taught future captains, 'You should try your best to avoid getting too close to the enemy, and use your cannons to defeat them...so that war can be carried out under safer conditions and reduce the losses of fleet crews.'

So in any case, the Portuguese overseas fleet always line up to fight the enemy, launching one sideways and redirecting the direction so that it can return to the next round of gunfire.

But in the East Asian waters, because there are few opportunities to form a fleet, the Portuguese have not yet performed the battle line tactics on which they rely to conquer Africa and the Indian Ocean... Yes, the battle line was a great tactic invented by the Portuguese and achieved brilliant success, not the British. Those Anglo-Saxon robbers always wanted to take everything for themselves, and even let others go of honor!

Think about it four hundred years later, the Anza people wanted to fire Portugal and Spanish from the whites. What is it like to steal their names? Those who did not see that Berlin became noble Anza people. Does it have nothing to do with the Russians?

Bah, shameless, even if you turn off the lights! It’s blatant and disgusting!

~~

When Pinto saw that the Ming Dynasty's fleet was also exerting the same tactics, he was a little messy.

Because this shows at least three points: First, their naval thinking has been innovated; second, they have enough confidence in their artillery; third, their warships have also become strong enough to withstand the recoil of heavy artillery volleys...

"I just said that these damn Ming people are so good at imitating! Our baby sailboat will make them pregnant at a glance!" Although Pinto did not believe that his opponent could compete with the Royal Navy by imitation alone, he is now full of enemies and we are few. We must not act rashly unless we have to.

He immediately sent someone a signal to the Oriental Beauty and received the flagship on the right to fire.

At the same time, the Chinese sailboat was ordered to retreat. Although the ship was not worth much money, the ship was loaded with Japanese gold and silver from trade, so it was impossible to lose.

~~

Colonel Pinto said at least one thing right, that is, the people of the Ming Dynasty were stunned by their two giant ships, like castles on the sea.

Before, facing the vulnerable Japanese navy, the coast guards were afraid of arrogance and impetuousness, and they would inevitably have the arrogance of underestimating the heroes of the world.

It was not until now that they knew what it was to have a sky outside. That small Western sailboat was a whole circle larger than its own 101 ship, the Wanhu Wuwei Ship!

And that super-sporting boat with the Big One must be four or five times larger than the previous one?

In fact, the displacement of the Goa Duke is only two and a half times that of the Oriental Beauty, but its towering forecastle and stern tower make it look too big.

Looking at the stern expressions of his generals, Mr. Zhao was very satisfied. He was not as good as letting them see each other with his own eyes. He was impressed by the impression.

Think about it, in the future, the main fleets of European maritime powers can all dispatch one or two hundred such warships. Even the squadrons of their overseas colonies also have more than a dozen main ships in charge. The strength of the coast guard forces is really not enough for people to get stuck in their teeth...

"It's better to see it at first sight than to hear it. I didn't expect that the gap between us and the Thais has become so big." Wang Rulong held the railing in his hand and said with a serious expression.

"This is normal. When Westerners saw Zheng He's fleet, they would have the same feeling." Mr. Zhao said calmly: "For the past 150 years, we have been in a state of seclusion, and have made great strides. People have set sail and made great progress, so naturally they have become like this now."

As he said that, Zhao Hao raised his tone and inspired the generals on the ship, saying, "Since you know your shame, you will be brave! Let us learn from the strengths of the barbarians to control the barbarians, capture their Eastern beauties, strip them up and study them carefully! Create a warship higher than them!"

"Ao! Ao! Ao!"

The soldiers immediately burst into a terrifying howl of wolf, the dull atmosphere was swept away, and the fighting spirit was filled with an instant.

"Young Master, can you want it all!" The police officers looked at the largest giant ship of warship hungrily, and the dark Governor of Goa seemed even more attractive.

"Haha, I'm ambitious!" Zhao Hao laughed loudly, thinking that it was probably the flagship of the Portuguese Macau fleet. If you really detain it, you will become a vengeance with them. This is inconsistent with the strategic direction.

At this time, the fleet completed an arc-shaped battle line and surrounded the bay strongly. Small ships and speedboats were still cruising outside as before.

This time, even the 101 ship participated in the battle line, which shows that it is like facing a great enemy.

~~

Seeing the boat driving from the harbor with a white flag, Mr. Zhao couldn't help but smile and said, "It seems that our previous performance was not in vain. These Thais have always only when they are afraid of it, they will remember to speak well."

"It's just a waste!" Wang Rulong spat and ordered the fleet to anchor and moor on site, maintain the best attack posture.

Warships dropped the iron anchors in front and behind and fixed them on the sea surface with long anchor chains.

Eight South Asian sailors rowed their boats to the front of the fleet. The nearby 404 boats immediately stepped forward to intercept. After searching, they sent two red-haired ghosts and a Han man in tights to the flagship.

Many police officers have seen Europeans for the first time and are very novel about these guys with curly hair, high nose, deep eyes, and blue eyes.

"No wonder it's called the Red-haired Ghost. Isn't this the same as the Yasha in the City God Temple?"

"It's so ugly, so pitiful. With such a tall nose, how can I find a wife?" The police officers saw that their arms were dense and dense, and their heart-protecting hair was also exposed in their wide shirts. They couldn't help but feel sympathy for these Folang Jiyi. "Even if you spend money, the kiln sister who can just talk about it will not serve her. Even if she turns off the light, she still feels thorny..."

"Hahahaha!" The crew members who were wandering on the sea went straight to the three routes in three words. "There is no place to talk!"

"Hey, worry about it, cats look for cats, dogs look for dogs, and money find a big horse monkey. They must have a female ghost," said the knowledgeable old police officer, laughing: "Everyone has hair, and no one hates anyone!"

Fortunately, the two Portuguese crew members couldn't understand Chinese, otherwise they would have been so angry that they would have died of anger.

~~

The sea was windy, and Mr. Zhao met with the messenger of Folang Jiren in the conference room of the stern building.

There was still a picture of the Beijiuzhou power in the conference room. Mr. Zhao was sitting on the chair with a big golden sword. Wang Rulong and other generals stood solemnly in front of him, all wearing a dark blue police robe. Seeing his military appearance was solemn and full of momentum.

Two Folang Ji were brought in, took off their hats and bowed, and muttered in Portuguese. The Han people, who were used as general translation, quickly explained that this was introducing themselves and extending their most sincere greetings to the adults of the Celestial Empire.

Mr. Zhao couldn't help but think of the translator of "The Devils Are Coming". He probably didn't have an honest translation. Unfortunately, he couldn't understand Portuguese, so he snorted coldly: "Don't pretend to behave, just tell me the purpose of the trip."

"They said, I want to ask the young master what he is coming." After the translation, the general translation wiped his sweat and smiled apologized, "Young Master, don't care, these red-haired ghosts are very direct and rude."

Zhao Hao waved his hand and signaled it was fine, and then Wang Rulong replied in a deep voice:

"Listen, this is the Royal Marine Transport Corporation of the Ming Dynasty, which is responsible for the heavy responsibility of shipping grain for the Celestial Empire! The Japanese pirates in the past dared to dispatch large troops to attack our sea fleet. Afterwards, they interrogated the prisoners and learned that the Japanese pirates were all instructed by the Japanese pirates of Kyushu Feiqian Daming! This is the most serious provocation to our Celestial Kingdom and the most extreme contempt for our Ming Dynasty. This time, we came to pill the Japanese pirates in Kyushu, so that the world could know that those who offend our Ming Dynasty would be punished even if they are far away!"

The translation was stunned when he heard it. It took him a long time to wake up as if he was dreaming. He mumbled and started to translate it. He didn't know what the last sentence would be translated into.

The Portuguese were obviously not scared. They defeated the powerful Ottomans and the Indian fleet, and controlled the African coast, the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea. They were obviously more qualified to say such words.

So the two of them muttered and discussed it, and then said with a tough gaze that they didn't know what the Japanese were doing, they only knew that this was the defense zone of the Royal Navy of Portugal. Please leave quickly!

Zhao Hao's face darkened when he heard this, he slapped the armrest of the chair and shouted sternly: "Stop doing this, this is the world of the Ming Dynasty, our country's vassals, how dare you say such words to the masters of Japan?!"
