"Porphyry!" A series of dense wing-flapping wind sounds came, mixed with countless "chirping" bird chirps, breaking the silence in the dense forest.

Jiang Haidong raised his head, and through the shade of the leaves, he saw a large flock of birds leaping into the forest in the distant sky. He said to the guards beside him: "The birds are alarmed, someone must have come, and the outpost has not returned." ”

The guards were just about to answer, but they saw a soldier rushing back along the forest avenue, and when he saw Jiang Haidong, he said, "Company commander, the enemy has passed by." ”

Jiang Haidong nodded and said, "Inform the troops and prepare for battle." After a pause, he added, "Tell the escort team to keep them moving." ”

The Dutch colonial government was actively preparing for war, and the KPA was also not idle, and although the KPA had established fortifications on the periphery of the farm, it did not intend to passively wait for the Dutch army to attack. Although the People's Army and the British fleet reached an agreement not to attack Batavia, it was possible to find the weak points of the Dutch army and strike at them. Luo Yue knew that there were still 4 tribes that had not yet reached Batavia, so he immediately began to study the possibility of ambushing these 4 tribes halfway.

After clarifying the path of the four tribes to Batavia, it was decided to ambush two of them. However, the purpose of the ambush was not to annihilate or weaken the strength of the enemy army, after all, even if these two tribes were completely annihilated, the losses of the Dutch army would be limited, so the main goal was to break the morale of the Dutch army and boost their confidence in the Chinese.

The ambush mission was carried out by two companies, each with 200 members of the farm guards, allowing them to experience more battlefield training. Jiang Haidong was one of the troops that got the opportunity to ambush, and this operation was completed by him independently.

The ambush site is located in a dense forest about 40 kilometers away from the farm, which was originally a road through the dense forest opened by the Dutch colonial government, with a total length of about 20 kilometers and a width of about 10 meters, and the road is densely forested on both sides, and all are tall tropical trees, the trees are high and dense, which is very suitable for ambushing the army, and the People's Army can set up an ambush area about 500 meters long.

However, because the forest is too dense, although it is conducive to the concealment of the army, but it also brings a lot of trouble to the ambush of the People's Army, first of all, the forest greatly shortens the shooting distance, which can only be effective in 20-30 meters, otherwise the shooting route will basically be blocked by the tree pole, but at the shooting distance of 20-30 meters, it will cause the bullet to pass through the enemy queue and shoot into the opposite tree; Accurate, but it also hits tree poles, but bullets generally don't bounce back, and long-range curved weapons such as grenadiers are unusable, which of course greatly reduces the KPA's firepower.

In response to these circumstances, Jiang Haidong decided to ambush all the troops on one side of the road, and the other side was all vacant, so that although there was no formation of a flanking attack, he could also concentrate his troops and did not have to worry about being attacked by mistake; At the same time, Jiang Haidong sent more than 20 soldiers to climb the tree and throw it down* from the tree to kill and injure the enemy. Only grenadiers, mortars and other weapons can only be abandoned.

After determining the tactics in this way, they waited for the arrival of the indigenous army, but they only waited for a day, and sure enough, they waited for the indigenous army. So Jiang Haidong immediately ordered that the whole army be arranged according to the plan and prepare to ambush the indigenous army. Moreover, Jiang Haidong did not forget to ask the members of the farm guard not to open the safety bolts of their rifles, in case they were nervous, and to open fire without waiting for the indigenous army to fully enter the ambush area of the People's Army.

Jiang Haidong came up from the grassroots level of the People's Army step by step, and he was very clear about the nervousness of the new recruits when they first entered the battlefield, not to mention that the members of these farm guards had not even completed basic training, so they could not expect too much from them, and before the battle, it was best not to open the insurance, so that they would not shoot in advance.

Less than 10 minutes after the KPA had all set up an ambush, I saw an indigenous army slowly walking along the forest road.

This tribe is more than 150 kilometers away from Badavia, which is one of the farthest tribes, with a total population of more than 12,000 people, basically all of whom are locals, and it is also considered a large tribe on the entire island of Java. It turned out that this tribe did not have a good impression of the Dutch colonial government, and secretly supported two anti-colonial organizations, but they also hated the Chinese, in every anti-Chinese incident, this tribe was very active, originally they did not want to cooperate with the Dutch colonial government, but the People's Army continued to attack the Javanese natives, which caused the tribe's strong anger, so when the Dutch colonial government issued an invitation to the tribe, after the high-level consultation of the tribe, it was believed that the power of the Dutch colonial government could be used to deal with overseas Chinese, so it was decided to send troops to join the Dutch army to participate in the war, and immediately recruited an army of more than 800 people, rushed to the battlefield。

Because they came from afar, the indigenous army also carried a lot of baggage and more than 20 donkeys, horses and livestock, and the whole team pulled out a distance of more than 600 meters, which had exceeded the ambush area of the people's army.

After entering the ambush area of the People's Army, the indigenous army did not notice that the enemy troops were lying in ambush within a distance of more than 30 meters from them, and still marched along the avenue in the forest.

At this time, Jiang Haidong was lying in the grass under a big tree that no one could hold, staring at the actions of the indigenous army, holding a Type 96 pistol in each hand, Jiang Haidong was also equipped with a Type 01 rifle, but in this dense forest environment, it was not suitable for the combat environment of the Type 01 rifle, but the Type 96 pistol was more suitable.

It didn't take long to hear the sound of an explosion coming from the front, and it turned out that on a big tree at the end of the KPA burial area, there was a soldier in ambush, who was responsible for dropping the bomb first as a signal for the KPA to attack. So when the warrior saw the native army in the tree, he immediately broke the string of a *, and then went down.

And after hearing the explosion of *, Jiang Haidong immediately yelled: "Fire." Then he opened his bow left and right and fired at the native army. In fact, without his command, the warriors who had laid in ambush opened fire one after another, while the warriors hiding in the trees threw down the prepared * and exploded and opened fire in the ranks of the natives. At this time, the members of the farm guard also opened the safety one after another and shot at the natives, of course, at least nearly 20% of them forgot to open the safety because of emotional tension, and as a result, they pulled the trigger several times in a row, but they failed to fire.

The indigenous army did not expect to encounter an ambush here, so they were completely unprepared, and the strike fire of the People's Army was extremely fierce, and there were constantly * falling explosions overhead, and they were even more dizzy, screaming repeatedly, many people were either hit by bullets, or hit by * explosion fragments, fell to the ground, and the whole team was also in chaos.

However, at this time, some clever natives found that all the blows seemed to come from the trees on one side, and the woods on the other side did not move at all, as if they were safe, so they fled to the woods on the other side, and some people called for their companions to quickly hide here, so the natives also fled to the woods on the other side, and before they had run a dozen paces, they heard the sound of explosions and the screams of people in the woods.

In fact, because the trees in the woods are dense, and the indigenous soldiers are much looser after escaping into the dense forest, the lethality of the * explosion is very limited, and some * although the explosion occurred, but not even a single person was killed, but at this time the indigenous soldiers thought that there was also an ambush of the People's Army in the dense forest on this side, and they dared to go deep inside, and the people with flexible minds hurriedly found a big tree to hide, while the people who reacted slowly were in a dilemma and were stunned there.

At this moment, Jiang Haidong saw that the indigenous army was completely in chaos, so he immediately ordered a charge, and then took the lead in rushing out of the woods, firing continuously from the left and right with two guns, killing several soldiers in a row.

The other KPA soldiers also came out of the jungle with their bayonet rifles and engaged in a white-knuckle battle with the indigenous soldiers, and the soldiers from the trees also came down and joined the battle group. In fact, at this time, the number of the indigenous army was far superior to that of the People's Army, and even with the addition of the farm guards, it had at least twice the numerical advantage.

But at this time, the whole army of the indigenous army has been in chaos, the soldiers have no fighting spirit, and they are unable to organize effective resistance, and most of the indigenous army are ordinary farmers, although they have participated in several battles with other tribes before, and have certain combat experience, but after all, they have not received formal military training, and the soldiers of the People's Army are well-trained, even if they are engaged in white-knuckle combat, they are not bad, not to mention that the soldiers of the People's Army will not blindly be brave, but take the squad as a unit, carry out coordinated operations, the soldiers cooperate with each other, and there is fire cover, the indigenous soldiers are not opponents at all, and they are killed to the ground and die。

Although the members of the farm guard team have not been trained for a long time, and lack of actual combat experience, but at this time it is better than high morale, long before the battle, everyone in the farm guard team has saved up a breath of air, to strike hard against the natives, for the Chinese in Java, and at this time there is also the people's army driven, naturally everyone is brave, all of them are vying for the first, so even in the white-knuckle battle, almost all of the people who fell to the ground and died were indigenous soldiers.
