This country claimed to be the hegemon of the world, wantonly invaded the Ming Dynasty's sea frontier, and as a result, it was completely destroyed!
Ancient China has always regarded itself as a "Heavenly Dynasty", which is not an exaggeration, ancient China was indeed very powerful, but the more backward it was, the more backward it became, and eventually the "Heavenly Dynasty" became ironic. Chinese dynasties are constantly changing, and generally at the end of the dynasty, it is often the weakest time, but even so, China is not easy to bully.
In the last years of the Ming Dynasty, the rising European powers boasted that they were the first in the world, and they wanted to compete with China, before that, the country was not as good as it boasted, but there were many cheerleaders advocating for it, plus its own arrogance, thinking that Lao Tzu was invincible in the world. The country is the Netherlands.
Known as the "sea coachman" The Netherlands swept through the European seas to become a European hegemonic country, after which he expanded wildly and left many colonies on five continents, Chongzhen six years the Netherlands began to sword the "mysterious East - China", we all know that the national strength of the Chongzhen years has long been exhausted, the Dutch invasion can be described as worse, however, in this century war between the East and the West, the Ming Dynasty sailors have created a good record of total annihilation of the Dutch.
Before the outbreak of naval warfare, the Dutch secretly took despicable measures to occupy the island of Taiwan, and the Dutch navy, which had just tasted the sweetness, thought that Daming was vulnerable, so it could not wait to launch a long-planned war. In 1633, the Dutch sent more than a hundred warships to the coastal areas of China to deter the Ming Dynasty through powerful naval power.
For the first few months, the conflict of war was controlled on a smaller scale until October 22, 1633, when a major battle broke out between the two sides at The Bay of Pirlore. In the Battle of Luo Bay, the Dutch side had 8 Galen warships and 50 Pirate ships of Liu Xiang in the world at that time, while the Ming Dynasty had 50 large warships and more than 100 fire ships.
At dawn, the Ming Dynasty warships, led by Zheng Zhilong, sneaked up on the main Dutch force moored in The Bay of Zhiluo, with Zheng Zhilong's troops as the vanguard of the frontal assault, using artillery attacks to cover 100 fire ships to fire the Dutch warships.
The Dutch obviously did not expect the Ming Dynasty to use this tactic, so in the face of the ming Dynasty's sneak attack on the fire ships, they were all buried in the sea of fire, basically the entire army was destroyed. After the defeat of the Dutch, they no longer dared to be arrogant, and every year they demanded reparations from the Qing Dynasty, and they did not dare to harass them for the next 300 years. It can be said that even in the case of Internal and External Troubles of Daming, it can still achieve a big victory, which shows that the strength of the Ming Dynasty is still very strong.
