***************************************************************************)

Finally, after completing all the preparations, Yue Xiaofei went to sea as scheduled, and his travel target was of course the Batavia that he had been hungry for a long time.

Why is it a trip, isn't it an expedition, isn't it borrowing the attitude of the Batavian side towards the Chinese, and making an expedition?

Of course, it was an expedition, but this expedition was different from the Jiangnan Expedition, and it was also different from the expedition to Fuso, and it was also different from the Korean Incident.

Because this is a war of trade routes, a war to broaden the road of life for the "Shenzhou Free State", which has increased a large population.

As mentioned earlier, it is unthinkable for a force like the "China Free State" that attaches great importance to industry and commerce, and it is estimated that friends who understand business principles or business management, and even friends who are doctors, will understand this.

From a medical point of view, only eating Burana is called "intestinal obstruction", and when it is serious, it will kill people, not to mention a company or a city.

Therefore, it was necessary to open up trade routes, and it was also necessary to diversify the raw materials and sales channels without being restricted by certain forces.

As a "China Free State" that is bound to open up a new direction for China's development and a new road to self-reliance, it is not constrained by the materials and power of its own motherland, and the almost unlimited wealth from the outside world is completely a necessary supplement.

Only such a guarantee will enable the economic system of the Free State of China to be fully operational, with industrial and maritime commerce as the mainstay. In addition, participation in maritime business competition has also been eliminated, and in the future, the legal system, parliamentary system, and management model of the "Shenzhou Free State" may regress again due to personal greed.

In the end, when the development of trade routes was completed, when the establishment of the new army of the Shenzhou Army was completed, and when the trade routes for the source of materials and the sale of products were completed, it was the beginning of the march to the whole country. Of course, it is too early to talk about attacking the whole country, and if you think about when and in what state the United States participated in World War II, you should understand that there is a necessary process of material accumulation.

But why did you choose the hot June of the Batavia trade route to open up the trade routes? Wouldn't it be better if we followed the trade winds in March and April of the following year?

This is because June is the off-season for the business of the Nanyang generation, so this time was chosen to do it!

Otherwise, the merchants will be driven away by shooting and shooting, and it will be a big deal! The city of Batavia, now temporarily part of the Dutch naval domain, was a hub of trade, and therefore the operation here must have been carried out in a strange way with many interests.

With the ship, Yue Xiaofei only brought one cargo, a large number of crystal beads, what are these things used for? Guarantee is a super cool thing, think about what the old colonial countries such as Britain and the Netherlands exchanged for these things, then everyone will definitely guess Yue Xiaofei's practice.

What Yue Xiaofei intends to do this time is to negotiate with the regional governor of a country and use two means of intimidation. Why do you say this, because it is still in the stage of negotiations with the Netherlands, so you can't hurry up.

Of course, now Ayano Mochizuki, who is wearing the so-called "dress" of the Shenzhou Army, a tight short top and breeches, has also become some kind of guarantee! In particular, it is one of the necessary conditions to ensure that Yue Xiaoniu no longer relies on the secret skills of the Murong family to mess with flowers and grass at will.

On this expedition, Yue Xiaofei led a large fleet. And its lineup is really a bit too luxurious for little Batavia, and the luxury is really a little dazzling.

Fifteen "Huofeng-class cruisers" were the main force of the Nanyang Fleet in this way. They installed stronger armor plates at the naval base in Muzuki.

Of course, there is still no better way to deal with the armor-piercing shells fired by their own cannons for the time being, and new armor is still being developed. But it was much better to deal with the shells fired by the old cannons, and the main way to improve it was to add a round bulge like a chess piece to the outside of the armor.

These little things are quite hard, and when the tips of the shells come into contact, they increase the chance of ricocheting, and in the subsequent impact, the fragmentation of these hard little ones also consumes the same amount of energy as the armor-piercing projectiles, and shatters the more brittle pig iron.

The "Liefeng-class destroyers" are only five destroyers, and the rest of the destroyers are being refitted in the dock in Wenzhou City, and their power, firepower, and protection will be greatly improved after this refit.

In addition to a total of 13 destroyers that have returned from Fuso and are undergoing power modifications, the remaining 10 will patrol between Zhoushan and Mingyue Bay.

The 60 ships of the Fury Tide class will be divided into three groups, of which 30 will be stationed in Zhoushan to cooperate with 10 destroyers to carry out patrol missions.

In the Fuso Theater, 20 "Futide-class" frigates were added to the five cruisers and three destroyers, and the other 10 were sold to the North Korean army, which had begun to build a navy, in exchange for a large amount of gold and supplies.

It is worth mentioning that before this trip to the South Seas, the establishment of warships was also adjusted.

The General Staff Headquarters added the Guards System and the Guards System to the warships.

Roughly speaking, there are three classes of cruisers, destroyers, and frigates to protect the safety of warships and the personal safety of officers, and when necessary, they will go ashore to fight according to the orders of the captain.

Huofeng-class cruisers: platoon-level guards system, company-level Marine Corps guard system;

Gale-class destroyers: squad guard system, platoon-level Marine Corps guard system;

Raging Tide-class cruisers: two-man guard system, squad Marine Corps guard system;

On both sides of the luxurious "Mingyue" in the center of the fleet are 10 "Suzaku-class" supply ships that are converted from civilian "sub-class" cargo ships.

The main improvements are the elimination of the sail system in order to save money in civilian use, the increase of armor to improve the protection force, and the installation of a 60 mm raindrop rapid gun for self-defense to meet the needs of close self-defense.

Immediately behind the "Mingyue" on which Yue Xiaofei was riding was a "Dolphin-class medical ship" specially added for the Nanyang Fleet, which was only protected by raindrop-type fast guns and converted from a "whale-class amphibious assault ship".

It uses two 150-horsepower steam engines and carries a lifeboat converted to the "Fury Tide" class, which allows for the transfer of wounded between ships, even at considerable speeds.

Of course, while the hospital ship made the soldiers feel safe, it also made them less lonely. After all, the young doctors and nurses are good targets, at least not so boring until they arrive in Batavia.

The last, but not so good to take the "Bright Moon", the 30 "whale-class amphibious assault ships" belonging to the 2nd Marine Division. They were there just in case, and if the Dutch couldn't figure out what was going on and put their guns up on it, then it would be a good time to snatch Badawi over.

Therefore, there is a long-distance voyage of this huge fleet of sixty-two ships, and of course, the ship will also meet with a few "scientific research maniacs" in the "armament workshop" to see if their ships are suitable for long-distance sailing, and by the way, they need to conduct some scientific experiments when they sail far away.

For Batavia, Yue Xiaofei didn't want to take it for nothing, after all, there was no formal negotiation with the Dutch royal family now, and it was a bit unreasonable to attack directly anyway. And if the "Shenzhou Free State" really wants to participate in the world's emerging era of "great exploration", it will not be able to explain it at all.

This proves that it is not possible to do without force, but it is not possible to rely on force alone!

According to the orders of the military department, they are going to fight in the Nanyang area, but what kind of battle is this, looking at this heat, it is a bit like a public-funded tour.

The special forces who were not on duty, one by one, wore sunglasses and sat under the parasols of the bar on the top floor. Put their feet in military boots on the bar, sip wine, smoke cigars and hum a little song, and hook up a hospital ship or the girls on the Bright Moon, the "seals" have a very pleasant life.

In particular, this commander-in-chief is not very serious himself, so he can still live happily before entering a possible combat area. As for security, there are naturally peripheral naval considerations, and the SEAL special forces must at least have a place that can be destroyed before they can be used.

Yue Xiaofei was very satisfied with such a "travel arrangement", at least, he left behind the Murong Zhuo who chattered all day long and was comparable to a wife, at least for the time being, he could put aside those government affairs that were so annoying that he scratched his scalp and made people lose his hair straight.

"Alas! Be happy and be happy! When someone Yue achieves his goal one day, he can be the shopkeeper, oh! What a happy life it is! Hurry up and do it early for this goal! ”

Yes, his goal is not grandiose, the Qing army must be defeated, the country must be established, business must be developed, and resources must be available. Oh my God! It doesn't seem like a grand goal, but why is there so much to it!

Diman didn't know Yue Xiaofei's plans, and it is estimated that he knew about it...... If he knew, he would probably wake up laughing in his dreams, and of course there would still be a little pain before he woke up.

As an important port for commercial exchanges, Batavia is not as cost-effective as falling into the hands of the Free State of China itself. Grab the neck of the Spice Road and pave the Crystal Road This is what Yue Xiaofei is going to do this time, and the fleet under Diman is indeed a bit of a hindrance in Yue Xiaofei's eyes.

Now, it's time to find a way to get rid of this fleet!
