The Ming Dynasty: The most ruthless imperial grandson, Old Zhu begged me not to kill him.

Chapter 509 Fierce Battle at Sea

I originally planned to take this opportunity to ambush them again.

Who would have thought that this guy would be so afraid of death?

If they succeed, their troops will certainly suffer heavy losses.

Everyone sighed, their eyes filled with resentment.

We've already reached the enemy's doorstep; it would be a real shame not to attack now.

Unfortunately, they don't have many troops, and this is all they can do now.

With this in mind, he prepared to retreat to the northwest, as many people from the Delhi Sultanate had sought refuge with them during this period.

Unfortunately, they had no foothold in this place, and more importantly, they didn't have much food.

If they continue to stay in this place, not only will these people's food supply be compromised, but even the food supply for their army will be insecure.

Therefore, Lan Yu decided to take these people to the Northwest and hand them over to the Ü-Tsang Provincial Administration Commission for them to take over.

Then these people will be settled in the U-Tsang Province and the Dokham Province in the southwest.

In addition, some could be relocated to the Khmer Empire, which they had just conquered.

Soon, under the persuasion of the Ming army, many people from the Delhi Sultanate were willing to leave, and Lan Yu did not force those who wanted to stay.

Given the current personality of the Sultan of Delhi, these people's lives will certainly be in danger. Since they have chosen this path, so be it.

Everyone has their own choices, and even they cannot interfere.

And so, the two armies remained locked in a stalemate.

Meanwhile, Zhu Xiong Ying and Wu Liang were already at sea confronting the navy of the Delhi Sultanate.

The navy of the Republic of Drisspan is quite good, but their navy is mainly stationed in the west. They do have some troops in the south and east, but their combat strength is not particularly strong.

After several battles, the Ming navy suffered extremely heavy losses in the eastern seas, with very few ships left.

So, left with no other option, they had to bring in the team from the western sea area.

Wu Liang looked at the map in his hand and sighed.

"Fortunately, we improved our naval strength, otherwise we really wouldn't be able to compare with them!"

The navy of the Delhi Sultanate was not weak; it was at least much stronger than that of the Ming Dynasty.

However, after several battles during this period, and with the imperial court continuously providing a large amount of food, supplies, and equipment.

The naval power of the Ming Dynasty has now advanced by leaps and bounds, far surpassing that of these small boats. In fact, at Zhu Xiong Ying's suggestion, many of the ships have been covered with a layer of iron armor.

This combat power is several times stronger than before.

The Delhi Sultanate's navy roamed this sea area without encountering any formidable enemies, and in their view, the Delhi Sultanate's navy was the most powerful.

However, when they saw the Ming Dynasty's navy, they were all dumbfounded. They could not imagine that there was such a powerful navy in the world.

Putting everything else aside, each of these ships alone is many times larger than theirs.

"How could Brahma have created such a terrifying ship? Aren't the warships of our Delhi Sultanate the most powerful? How could they be inferior to those of a small Eastern country!"

Some disgruntled individuals continued to steer their small wooden boats towards the Ming Dynasty's ships.

Zhu Xiong Ying watched this scene with disdain in his eyes. "These guys are really interesting, daring to confront us directly. Since that's the case, we can't let them get away with it. Let them see the fighting power of the Ming army!"

Wu Liang nodded after hearing this.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, leave this matter to me. I want to see just how powerful these people's navy really is!"

At this moment, Wu Liang directed the various ships in his hands to surround the ships of the Delhi Sultanate.

The people of the Delhi Sultanate were extremely shocked to witness this scene.

Their ships were practically invincible in the area, but it turns out there's always someone stronger, and there's always someone better. They've actually encountered someone whose strength surpasses theirs.

Countries that are roughly equal in strength.

This greatly alarmed them.

Especially those rams that went directly into their ship.

Their ship suddenly began to sway precariously, as if it were about to fall apart.

At this moment, the naval commander of the Delhi Sultanate sighed upon seeing this scene.

It's unbelievable that in such a short time, the strength of their Delhi Sultanate has become so much weaker than before.

No wonder it was the navy that wiped out so many countries back then; its strength is unmatched.

After this battle is over, I must remind them to avoid conflict, allocate more funds to the navy, and then import such large warships.

With such large warships, we would have an advantage in fighting against those countries to the west.

Just then, a loud bang nearly threw him into the sea.

At that moment, he saw that the stern of the large ship he was on had begun to catch fire and emit smoke.

Immediately afterwards, the Ming Dynasty's navy rained down cannonballs on them without restraint, instantly shattering the Delhi Sultanate's navy into pieces.

The naval commander of the Delhi Sultanate was completely incredulous at what he saw. Although he believed that the Ming Dynasty's naval power was definitely stronger than his, this was a blatant and overwhelming defeat.

The difference was too great. If the fighting continued like this, the remaining ships in their hands might be completely wiped out.

At this moment, he let out a long sigh and immediately ordered the navy under his command to retreat.

The remaining boats quickly turned around and fled in the opposite direction, while also rescuing the people who had fallen into the water.

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled and looked at Wu Liang in front of her.

"You truly have exceptional skills. No wonder the Emperor chose you as the naval commander!"

"I think our enemies are already at their last gasp. Keeping them around will only cause trouble. We should wipe them all out and let them see the strength of our Great Ming!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will immediately lead my troops to continue the pursuit and kill them, and let these surrounding countries see whose naval power is the strongest!"

After speaking, Wu Liang began to direct the entire fleet to present their attack to the naval commanders of the Delhi Sultanate in the most suitable manner.

At this moment, the naval commanders of the Delhi Sultanate felt a wave of defeat; they had been utterly crushed.
