The result of this battle was that three ships in the Ming Dynasty were destroyed and more than 80 people were killed and more than 100 were injured. Nine Dutch warships were sunk. One was captured, and more than 400 people were killed and more than 100 were captured. The Ming Dy

In 1633 AD, the Ming Dynasty Chongzhen In the sixth year of the Ming Dynasty Liuluowan in the Kinmen area of ​​Fujian Province, a great naval battle broke out between the colonists of the Ming Dynasty. In this naval battle, the Ming Dynasty invested dozens of warships and tens of thousands of officers and soldiers, and the Netherlands dispatched several advanced warships and pirate Liu Xiang's more than 50 ships to attack the Ming army.

The result of this battle was that three ships in the Ming Dynasty were destroyed and more than 80 people were killed, and more than 100 were injured. Nine Dutch warships were sunk. One was captured, more than 400 people were killed and more than 100 were captured. The Ming Dynasty won a complete victory. After the victory of the naval battle, the Dutch colonists no longer dared to harass the Chinese coast. It was not until 1840 that the Western colonists blasted the door to China again. The scale of this battle was actually no less than the Opium War after 207. This battle was a complete victory in China. Why are few people mentioned later?

Personally, I think it is mainly because the commander of the Battle of Liaoluo Bay was Zheng Zhilong . Those who are familiar with history should know that Zheng Zhilong has a son named Zheng Chenggong . Zheng Chenggong later became a national hero, but his father Zheng Zhilong became a joke.

Manchu 1644 after entering the pass, Zheng Chenggong tried his best to ask his father to fight with the Qing Dynasty to recover the rivers and mountains. Zheng Zhilong chose to surrender to the enemy and treason in the face of the Qing Dynasty's high-ranking officials and treason, and was eventually lured and killed by the Qing Dynasty. It is also a pity that if Zheng Zhilong did not surrender, he would have predicted that the defeat of Western colonists for the first time in the Luowan Battle of the Sea would be enough to make him famous in history and become a national hero with his son Zheng Chenggong.

But unfortunately, he chose the wrong way in the end. Later generations mentioned Zheng Zhilong just because he was Zheng Chenggong's father.
