The Australian Navy, under the leadership of Naval Commander Wang Tiehammer, ten ships, with the Perfect as the flagship, sailed towards the waters of Batavia, this time the main task is to deter the Dutch, not really to start a war with them, at this time, Australia is actually not prepared enough. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Even if it occupies this area, Australia does not have so many troops to control it, and the Spaniards and the British are operating in this area, so if Australia cannot effectively control it, it will be in vain.

So if you know the actual situation in Australia, Nick will definitely not worry too much about the Australians going to war, after all, starting a war means investing more troops in this area, and in addition, Australia will not be able to continue to interfere in the internal affairs of the Ming Dynasty.

The Navy's multi-ship joint sailing formation training is a routine training, not intentional, so this is a military operation as usual, and it has nothing to do with the espionage incident, and it happened to happen together, so it makes things look much more complicated.

Nick was very anxious, he kept asking for news from Wu Zhengdao, hoping to know the final result of the Australian government's treatment, but Wu Zhengdao's reply was that it was a military operation as usual, so that he should not worry too much.

But can he not worry, ten ships, and army soldiers on board, where so many people have gone, whether they have sailed to Batavia, even if he wants to send the news out, it is too late, they all know that the speed of the Australian ship is fast, not comparable to ordinary people.

In this case, it can only be waiting, and the long wait is a kind of torment for a person, until three days later, the news of Batavia was officially delivered to Nick, of course, as soon as Nick received the news, he immediately sent the news to the Australian diplomatic department.

After all, only by sending the news out as soon as possible and letting the Australians know what His Excellency the Governor meant, can he ensure the safety of Batavia.

"You said that Governor Van Dimen was willing to apologize for this incident, which is really a big deal."

Wu Zhengdao pointed to the map and asked, because the area that Nick said was located in the entire Strait of Malacca in the future, so Wu Zhengdao asked so seriously, after all, this is the golden waterway of the future, once anyone controls here, it is equivalent to mastering the maritime lifeline of East Asian countries.

"Yes, Wu, Your Excellency is very sorry for such an incident, but he really doesn't know much about it, and let me tell you that these spies are at the disposal of your country and he has absolutely no complaints."

Pushing things off and saying that he didn't know anything made Wu Zhengdao very surprised, in the face of the facts, he could also push it so cleanly, Fan Dimen was really shameless, but no matter what he did, at least this guy gave an explanation.

Australia wants to explain that he did give and gave this large area as a gift of apology, isn't that enough?

Well, I'll pass this on to the Executive Committee, so don't worry.

Wu Zhengdao resulted in maps, and letters, and then sent Nick away, bringing these things to the Executive Committee.

The members of the Executive Committee were also very surprised by such a situation, but it was just some verbal protests, could it be that the Dutch could not see it, this was obviously a diplomatic means, when did the protest be so effective.

But from this point it shows a problem, that is, the protest is in the case of absolute strength, that is, strength, Australia has such strength, and others do not, which shows that the Netherlands is afraid of the strength of the Australians.

Australia has never meant to refuse the territory sent to the door, not to mention that this area is still a golden waterway in the future, and mastering it is equivalent to controlling the maritime lifeline of East Asian countries in the future.

"Although this is nominally Dutch territory, it is not as we think, as far as I know, the Dutch here only have some improvised docks for loading and unloading goods, and do not actually control this place, but they claim sovereignty here."

This means that the Dutch didn't actually occupy this place at all, and if we wanted this area, we would have to do it ourselves, they were cunning.

Yes, that's right, if they actually occupied this place, I am afraid they would not have handed over the management so easily, you should know that the Dutch are virtuous and never make a loss-making deal.

It's no secret that the Dutch don't trade at a loss, they don't necessarily get the advantage of giving something, and Australia has to face the aborigines of the island if it wants this area, so this is a good choice to consume Australia's troops.

Let the Australian forces be concentrated here to deal with the aborigines of the island, so that they don't have to worry too much about the Australians attacking them.

However, although Van Diemen's calculation is incisive, but Australia is not stupid, although this condition is good, but Australia also pointed out that this area has no practical role, if you want to appear sincere, it is better to give part of the compensation.

Nick was very unhappy with the Australian's request, but he sent the news back, after all, this matter was not for him to decide, and if he could, it would have made things get to this point.

Of course, during this period, the Australian fleet did not stop, but headed towards Batavia, when ten warships appeared off the coast of Batavia with white smoke, Van Dimen almost died of anger, didn't he already agree to give an explanation, did the Australians still have to go to war.

Looking at the ten warships, he immediately ordered to start the vigilance, and the shore defense batteries also began to aim at those ships, but those ships did not mean to enter, and kept sounding their whistles, and the sound of beeping made the people of Batavia see a different scene.

At this time, Van Dimen thought of the Australian Embassy, and then sent someone to negotiate with him, hoping that he could contact the Australian warship, and the two sides should maintain good and smooth communication, and there should be no war.

Once upon a time, the Dutch needed to beg in such a low voice, and Van Diemen only felt that this was an irony, but he thought that it was worth it to avoid a war and let Batavia, which he had worked so hard to build, be destroyed by the fire of the Australians, after all, it was better to be soft than to let the Spaniards take advantage of them.

Once the war starts, Manila may send warships to act with the Australians, this is obvious, the Spaniards like to do this kind of downhill thing, and this possibility is very high, after all, the war on Dayuan Island has not been over for long, and that war is enough to see that there are Australians behind the shadow of Spain, but he does not have enough evidence to show it.
