When the Bangtai Navy Fleet was fighting life and death with the Three Kingdoms Fleet, more than thirty miles away, a small sailboat was rushing towards Manila like a sharp arrow.

On the bow of the boat, a Portuguese naval lieutenant stood straight and straight. He held a telescope in his hand, squinted his eyes, raised his neck high, and searched the sea constantly.

The sea was extremely calm, and there was no scene he wanted to see except for the shimmering waves.

"Quick...quick...turn the rudder, search eastward..."

The Navy Lieutenant seemed very anxious and ordered in panic.

After giving the order, he even said to himself: "I don't know if I can catch up. If I get involved in the battle and suffer too much loss, I will be punished and die!"

The small sailboat was very flexible and in an instant, it completed its turn, and kept approaching Manila Bay under the blow of the northwest wind.

"Look, there seems to be thick smoke in the northeast direction!"

Next to the Navy Lieutenant, there was also a lookout hand, who was also holding a telescope and searching around.

His voice seemed extremely excited and successfully attracted the attention of the Navy Lieutenant, whose telescope pointed to the northeast.

"Not only is there smoke, but you can also hear the sound of shelling... Fortunately, it has not arrived yet in five days!"

The Navy Lieutenant's ears were obviously good, and he heard a sound that the lookout hand could not hear.

"Quick... turn the rudder and go in the direction of thick smoke!"

The lieutenant's face suddenly became solemn, and he thought to himself: It seems that the naval battle is still going on, and I don't know if the Portuguese fleet's losses are great...

The navy lieutenant carried the warrant of Malacca Governor Martino. In the warrant, the Portuguese fleet ordered the immediately return to Malacca and set out to escort a large-scale merchant fleet to Guangzhou.

Long before Potiro led the fleet to Lingyan Bay, Widell led the English fleet to Malacca and began selling Ming specialties such as raw silk, silk, porcelain, etc. in Malacca.

The cargo of the twelve merchant ships suddenly caused a sensation in the entire city of Malacca, causing merchants from far and near to completely fall into madness, and went crazy to acquire the goods brought by Weidel.

No wonder these Western merchants were crazy. These raw silk, silk and porcelain were shipped to India or Africa, including white silver coins and yellow gold coins. You know, when Portugal still occupied Macau, they could get specialties from the Ming Dynasty every year, and even five merchant ships were not satisfied with it!

Widell's trip to Guangzhou was a waste of money and was received by Malacca Governor Martino.

Martinoyu asked Weidell to act as cannon fodder to test Lin Chunhong, and Weidell knew this. Although he was extremely angry, he suppressed his anger in order to make a lot of money and told Martino that Bontai welcomed all merchants except Spain to go to Guangzhou for trade.

When Martino heard this, he was ecstatic. If he could tempt his trade to Guangzhou, it would not matter at all whether he could occupy Macau.

However, Martino was cautious by nature and would be skeptical about Widell's words.

Just when Martino was hesitating, Lin Chunhong's envoy Li Siming arrived in Malacca and proposed to Martino that if Portugal could abide by the Ming Dynasty's laws, immediately give up hostility to Bangtai, and allow the Ming people to go to Malacca to induce business and trade. Bangtai would allow Portuguese merchant ships to go to Guangzhou and other places to trade.

Martino was completely moved now. However, as a cunning fox, he was ready to wait for the result of the three-country alliance fleet's naval battle against the Bontai Navy fleet.

However, Li Siming did not give Martino a chance to place a double-sided bet and directly threatened: "If you do not recall the fleet within five days, Bontai will completely close the door to trade!"

Martino scoffed at Li Siming's words and did not take them seriously. However, when he saw Widell heading to Batavia with the entire ship of silver coins, he was completely moved. Portugal's strength was getting weaker and weaker, and war was indeed not the right choice. Snatching silver coins and gold coins in silence was the way to survive in Portugal.

Martino calculated the time, but suddenly felt extremely anxious again. He immediately ordered the Navy lieutenant to find the Portuguese fleet and must pass the order of truce to the fleet commander within five days.

Martino's orders were ruthless and urgent, and he put all the pressure on the Navy lieutenant. It was no wonder that the Navy lieutenant was so anxious.

When the Navy Lieutenant commanded a small sailboat to approach the Portuguese fleet, the Dutch and Portuguese fleets and the Bonte Navy fleet bombarded each other for only three quarters of an hour.

But in just these three quarters of an hour, the Portuguese warships that were fighting lost more than 30% of artillery and sailors.

This loss made the Portuguese fleet commander very heartbroken. You should know that the only one who fought against the Portuguese fleet was the second-class warship of the Bontai Navy. It can be imagined that the Dutch fleet that fought against the Bontai first-class warship would definitely suffer more losses than the Portuguese fleet.

When the fleet commander shuddered when he thought of the terrifying firing rate of the warships opposite. He estimated that in another half an hour, the Portuguese fleet's combat losses would exceed 50%, becoming a broken fleet.

This is an unbearable weight for Portugal, which has weak power.

The fleet commander had long been tempted to retreat, but hesitated because of the military order of Governor Martino.

Therefore, the warrant brought by the Navy lieutenant can be regarded as a timely help.

The fleet commander had not even finished reading the order and directly ordered: "Retreat!"

So Potiro happened to see the scene that drove him crazy.

Potiro is much further away from the Portuguese fleet than the Dutch fleet. The abnormal movements of the Portuguese fleet have long fallen into the eyes of the Dutch fleet commander.

As the Portuguese fleet commander expected, the Netherlands suffered far more losses than Portugal.

The Dutch fleet suffered the firepower of four first-class warships. In just three quarters of an hour, three warships lost their combat power and slowly retreated from the long snake formation, tilted its hull, and slowly sailed towards Batavia.

However, the commander of the Dutch fleet is far more brave than that of the Portuguese fleet. He firmly believes that even if the Three-Nation Alliance fleet suffers heavy losses, it will completely defeat the Bonte Navy fleet and then add another medal in his military career.

However, the Portuguese fleet was the first to escape, and all the pressure suddenly poured on the Dutch fleet. The brave Dutch commander immediately lost his belief in victory and hurriedly ordered the fleet to retreat southwest.

The Portuguese fleet and the Dutch fleet fled against each other, and the Spanish fleet was not willing to fall behind and immediately fled northeastward.

All this of course fell into the eyes of Liang Feng and Song Shutao.

Song Shutao's eyes shone with joy; "Mr. Admiral, the winning rate in this naval battle has exceeded 99%!"

Unexpectedly, Liang Feng sighed: "I have to do it all, but I didn't expect General Lin and Governor Zhang to act so quickly. If they were three hours later, why would they lose so many brothers?"

After sighing, Liang Feng sternly said: "All warships, immediately pursue the Spanish fleet!"
