So the Governor of Shaw, who had a ghost in his heart, took a position on the Dutch's claim, and then he went to Pimont at once with the Dutch representatives, and after some mediation, the three kingdoms reconciled, and the crisis concerning the fate of the Treaty of Oecussi was finally resolved.

The next thing, of course, is to deal with the indigenous tribes besieging Oecussi.

Two days later, Pimont's soldiers arrived outside Oecussi Harbor on a military ship, and soon after, the medium-sized Galen galleon Archangel launched an explosive@ packet provided by the Australians in the direction of the dock, and the explosion of the high-explosive@ charge and the loud sound caused heavy casualties to the tribal warriors who blocked the port, and the unsuspecting indigenous warriors quickly retreated.

Immediately, the connection between the port and the city was restored, and the resupplied city of Oecussi was finally relieved from the crisis.

Control of the coastline is still in the hands of the Portuguese, but only to this extent, and the military pressure on Oecussi is still there—far from the coast, the Portuguese cannons and beds are out of reach, so it is still the domain of the indigenous tribes.

In late November, a group of Macao-Portuguese coalition troops led by Wei Hong set out from Xin'an City, followed the land route along the coastline to the west, and under the cover of the Portuguese naval fleet, went straight to the city of Oecussi, more than 200 kilometers away.

Ten days later, the coalition army consisted of six hundred guns from three infantry companies of the Sin'an garrison, as well as five hundred shields/spearmen and two hundred musketeers from the Governor of Pimont, for a total strength of more than 1,100 men.

On the morning of November 29, 1659, the Macanese and Portuguese forces arrived on the eastern outskirts of Oecussi and confronted 2,500 tribal warriors for half an hour.

Although many of the tribal warriors had seen the sharp firearms attacks of the Australians, the tribal leaders were not very aware of this, and their tactics were still old-fashioned, and only one attempted attack caused the tribal warriors to lose (4) a part of their strength, and the naked warriors were completely unable to resist the continuous volley of gun fire from the soldiers of the garrison lined up in three tiers, and had to retreat in a hurry, which caused the central camp of the tribal warriors to be somewhat shaken, and the tribal leaders seemed to have infighting among themselves.

At this critical moment, Pimont's team suddenly appeared from the flanks, these soldiers who were almost fully armored were well-equipped, taking advantage of the heavy blow to the enemy's morale and shaking people's hearts, suddenly a whole charge, the formation of the tribal warriors was in disarray, and then they were covered by the superior enemy's Yongleng weapons, the battle lasted for half an hour, and its tribal leader was captured by the renegade men, and then handed over to the Portuguese.

The battle broke through and drove away the indigenous tribes surrounding Oecussi, and the garrison captured a group of more than 100 musketeers and gunners, the "Dutch Volunteers", who were composed of pirates, bankrupt merchants, and runaway slaves, all of whom were ethnically black, white, and red, and all of whom "volunteered" to join the naturalization camp in Sinseong.

Although some of the natives still fled into the deep jungles of the south, the capture of the tribal leaders caused most of the tribal warriors to lay down their arms.

The fate of these tribal warriors varied, as most of them were captured by Pimont's army and sold as booty to slave traders, who were reportedly transported to Ambon and Batavia for estate labor.

A small number of others were captured by the Australians, who were scattered and taken into six naturalized battalions in Sin'an to become the "trade labour" of the Australian Commonwealth, who were later formed into a special "mining team" to work in the copper mining area, and after a few years, they all obtained the status of Australian Commonwealth citizens.

As for the women and children of those tribes, there were about a thousand people, half of them fled with the remnants of the tribe into the deeper jungle areas in the south, and the remaining half were all brought to Xin'an City by the garrison led by Wei Hong.

At this point, all the tribes in the mountains south of Oecussi City were cleared, and there were no natives left in this jungle.

Two months after the end of the military campaign in Oecussi, the first group of 300 Han Chinese families arrived in Sin'an on the Nicole, and they were soon resettled in the mining area, and the first Han town on the island of Timor was founded, Xiashan Town, which is said to have come from a small part of Gaozhou, and the name of the town is the name of the immigrants' hometown.

Later, thousands of Han immigrants came to Xiashan Town, and the town gradually developed into Xiashan City, and it was not only Han people who lived here.

Soon after the Han immigrants arrived here, the "Dayang United Railway" started to build a railway to the port of Okuhi here, and then the "Federal Autuo" also established a mining company here, and almost all the local Han men were recruited by the company as company employees, and a few months later, the labor force of the naturalization camp also arrived here, so with the joint efforts of the people, the copper ore here began to be transported to the blue wharf of Xin'an City by rail and various ships. Eventually, the copper ore was collected into the smelting furnaces on Mornington Island and turned into copper ingots......

Soon after the joint military operation between Macao and Portugal in the eastern suburbs of Oecussi, the Red Mansion began to increase its budget for Sin'an, and the Red Mansion realized that Xiao Pingguo had emphasized a few months ago that if it wanted to truly control the area assigned to Australia by the Oecussi Treaty, it was necessary to vigorously increase the hard power of Sin'an.

Because the matter on Timor Island is far from over---- although the Australian Federation intervened in the conflict between the Portuguese and the Dutch on Timor Island as a mediator, and the effect was very good, at least on the surface, the three parties signed a contract, however, after all, the conflict between Portugal and the Netherlands on the island has lasted for more than 50 years, because neither side has the strength to expel the other, resulting in this conflict becoming a brother has no end, costly and long-term war.

It is clear that the contradictions accumulated between the two sides during this period and the long-standing entanglements of interests between the respective indigenous tribes cannot be resolved immediately by a single contract.

There is no doubt that the Portuguese and Dutch sides played an important role in the struggle for supremacy ----of the island of Timor, according to the news that Pimont brought to the Australians, the Dutch East India Company had indeed stopped supplying weapons to the indigenous tribes, but it was not done thoroughly.

According to the representative of the Dutch East India Company, it takes time to do this - "We signed a contract with the tribe, and even though the contract was nothing in the eyes of the indigenous tribes, we wanted to keep it...... Of course, we have proven to be "decoupling" from the warlike tribes, and we have begun to reduce or even completely cut off aid in the form of weapons and food.

However, we also have to admit that the trade relations between Dutch merchants and local tribes that had been established for decades could not disappear overnight, and at the very least, these tribes could now spend money on these supplies, and it was difficult for our merchants to determine whether the Dutch flintlock pistol was bought by the buyer in front of him for hunting or war.

Therefore, there is a process of "decoupling", and as for how long it will take, we think it will take at least a year, maybe ...... longer."

These are the exact words of the Dutch delegate that the Governor of Pimont relayed to Xiao Pingguo.
