Chapter 472: Xingjiapo Forever Belongs to China

Formerly known as Singarpo, Sin Chau or Sing Dao, the earliest record of the Sinkapo is derived from the 3rd-century Soochow general Kang Tai's The Legend of the Wu Dynasty, which was referred to as Temasek in the Ming Dynasty. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Singapore is bordered by the Strait of Johor in the north and Peninsular Malaysia, across the Singapore Strait in the south and Indonesia, adjacent to the southern mouth of the Strait of Malacca, in addition to Singapore Island, including several surrounding islands, is an important port of call for ships between Europe and Asia, controlling the Strait of Malacca, and its strategic position is very important.

Since the Ming Dynasty, a large number of Chinese people have moved to Singapore, multiplying in the local area, with more than 75% of the population in Singapore, sweating and bloodshed for the development of the local area, but they have always been in a position of being slaughtered and plundered.

Since the strong rise of the Chinese Empire, the local suffering Chinese people have been looking forward to the powerful Chinese army entering Xingapo and bringing Xingapo into the arms of the Chinese Empire.

In order to suppress the Chinese, the English have been constantly moving into the natives of Nanyang in the past year, and have vigorously strengthened the monitoring of the Chinese, and tried their best to suppress and discriminate against the Chinese in the disputes between the aborigines and the Chinese, so that the Chinese people are even more looking forward to the motherland sending a large army to save them.

However, a few days ago, Europe, the United States, and the Japanese Kingdom organized the so-called "most powerful fleet in the history of mankind" and aimed the spearhead of the expedition at the Chinese people, and the arrogance of the natives immediately became arrogant, and they even challenged the Chinese people who had an absolute advantage in numbers in Singapore.

The rapid deterioration of law and order in the area led to a sharp spike in street fights between the Budans and the Chinese, and the Straits Settlements turned a blind eye to this, and the police deliberately favored the Bumiputera and fired the Chinese police on a large scale, putting the Chinese in Singapore at a great disadvantage.

The news that the Chinese people in Singapore were in danger was transmitted to the Chinese army through the wireless telegraph of the Ministry of Intelligence.

Zheng Dingbang and Geng Huoyan of the Huaxia Army, and Du Ligao of the Air Force have great ties with Xingapo, at the beginning of Hu Zhen's business, he followed Hu Zhen to stay in Xingjiapo for a period of time, and used Xingjiapo as a temporary base, which won the strong support of the local Chinese people.

Yang Yonglin knew what they were anxious about, so he suggested: "The battle in Natuna is no longer to be feared, I suggest that I be responsible for directing the finishing work of the Natuna raid, and the main force of the fleet and air force will go directly south to Singapore and the Strait of Malacca!" ”

Zheng Dingbang immediately agreed: "Okay, this thing is arranged like this!" ”

The distance from the Natuna Islands to Singapore is more than 500 kilometers, and the average ship can reach Singapore in a day and a night at most, even if it sails at an economical speed.

The Huaxia Army took the captured 17 coalition ships as the forerunner, disguised the retreating ships of the coalition ships, and carried more than 10,000 Huaxia soldiers as soon as they moved south.

In the year 4592 of the Chinese calendar, 1895, at three o'clock in the morning of March 19 of the solar calendar, the lead ship of the Chinese military fleet appeared in the waters of Singapore.

The personnel who watched from the ship saw the skyrocketing flames of the city of Singapore, and could hear the sound of gunfire and shouts of killing from time to time.

No matter what happened in the city of Singapore, the Chinese people would inevitably be greatly affected, and casualties and property losses would definitely be indispensable.

This surprised everyone, and they had to hurry up and rush towards the Singapore Pier.

However, Geng Huoyan, who was in charge of directing the sneak attack and landing operation, asked everyone not to make mistakes out of panic and not to make the enemy suspicious, which would lead to the failure of the sneak attack.

The ships controlled by the Huaxia Army finally approached the dock and sent it out in the direction of the pier according to the light and flag signals confessed by the captives.

Seeing that the signal of the light flag was completely correct, and using searchlights, the English defenders saw clearly that it was indeed a coalition ship, and did not suspect it, and directly put it into the dock area.

Because in the minds of these English defenders, it is absolutely impossible for the powerful coalition fleet to be defeated by the Huaxia army, although the radio signal with the combined fleet has been blocked for the past two days, it has not affected their judgment, in the past few hundred years, there has not even been a cable telegraph, and the British Empire has not yet dominated the world's oceans!

Under the lazy guidance of the dock defenders, six transport ships approached the dock almost simultaneously.

The six transports were operated by the best pilots of the Huaxia Army, escorting the captives who were familiar with the port area of the Xingapo wharf, and slowly approached the pier trestle.

Although the defenders of the port area were not vigilant, the soldiers of the Huaxia Army on the ship knew that the port area was surrounded by enemy artillery fire, and if the enemy found out that the situation was different, he would immediately block the entire port area with heavy artillery, and it would not be a pity for everyone to die, but the emperor's plan to sneak attack and seize Singapore would be frustrated.

Everyone's little hearts are mentioned in their throats.

The six transport ships were all docked at the pier, and the defenders did not make any suspicious movements, and in the dim light of the pier, only a few sentries were swaying on the pier trestle.

Soon, six transport ships walked out of the dense crowd, all of them were some coalition troops carrying disheveled coolies, carrying something, towards the dock port area.

The guard soldier at the dock did not see what it was, and stepped forward to ask, but unexpectedly he was surrounded by the crowd, and without making a sound, he was killed in the crowd.

The crowd flooded out of the docks, and everywhere they went, several sentries were silently killed by the crowd.

By the time the defenders outside the dock noticed that the situation was unusual, seven more ships docked at the dock, and more people flocked to the dock.

"Phew!" Finally, an English soldier fired a shot into the sky.

But this shot brought him bad luck, and the three snipers who had already been aimed at him, opened fire almost simultaneously, and the bullets flying from the three sniper rifles equipped with silencer tubes opened three large blood holes, spewing out six blood arrows, and immediately pounced on the ground.

Sadly, the shot fired by this vigilant sentry did not attract more attention.

The dock was very empty at this time, not only the infantry was transferred to the city of Singapore, but even the artillery of the battery was evacuated two-thirds of the personnel.

That's because the natives in the urban area of Singapore have been given a batch of weapons such as guns and single-shot rifles in the past two days, so they can't hold back, jump up and launch a large-scale attack on the Huaxia.

The wealthy merchants of the Huaxia people in the local area were also secretly prepared for self-defense, and received a hint from the intelligence officers of the Huaxia Army that the Huaxia Army was about to land in Singapore, and under the pressure of the enemy, there was no way to retreat, so they immediately relied on their own courtyard to gather all the clansmen to fight to the death with the natives.

The Chinese were forced to defend themselves, and fighting broke out in local neighborhoods first, and then slowly spread throughout the city.

Driven to the edge of the precipice of death, even the most cowardly Huaxia people couldn't help but resist, and at first they just took care of themselves.

At this time, the Huaxia intelligence officers sent a telegram to the navy to report the situation in Zhicheng District, and received instructions from Zheng Dingbang to immediately unite all the resistance forces of the Huaxia people, and the Huaxia army could arrive to support in a few hours at most.

News of the imminent arrival of reinforcements quickly spread throughout the Chinese community throughout Singapore, and in order to fight for the final victory, men, women and children alike took part in the battle against the natives.

The Chinese people did not have many guns and ammunition, and used many methods to block the enemy's advance, piling up barricades in the neighborhoods, and setting fire to some houses, the old and weak retreated to a safe place, while the strong men and women used a few guns, sticks, dung forks, firewood knives and other weapons to fight the enemy.

In the face of stubborn resistance, the rabble of indigenous forces could not move an inch.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the English army could not help but participate in the battle, which caused the Chinese community to suffer heavy losses in the battle, and many people were killed and wounded under the enemy's bullets.

The Chinese were furious, but before the reinforcements arrived, there was no good way but to resist desperately step by step, and the British and indigenous forces were pressing towards the core community of the Chinese people.

The desperate resistance of the Chinese people alarmed Sir Mitchell, the Governor of the Channel Settlements, who thought that this was a good opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the strength of the Chinese people and ensure the safety of the Straits Settlements.

Sir Mitchell and his staff thought that it would only take two or three hours to completely break up the resistance of the Chinese people, but they did not expect that the resistance of the Chinese people was so strong that they had to mobilize the infantry in the dock port area to support.

Unbeknownst to them, this created an excellent opportunity for the Huaxia Army to sneak attack and land at the port area of the Singapore Ferry Terminal.

After the landing of the Huaxia Army, although the British discovered the anomaly, they did not have enough troops to resist, and the Huaxia Army Marines with superior forces soon controlled the dock port area.

By the time the British army and its police forces were transferred back to the dock port area, the Huaxia Army had already taken the battery that threatened the dock, and the British army could no longer prevent the Huaxia Army from landing on a large scale at the dock.

When the British army desperately rushed to the dock port area, they found that some strange-looking "iron water tanks" had been unloaded on the transport ships of the Huaxia Army.

When the "tin tanks" reached the dock road, they spewed out puffs of smoke and flames backwards, and made a loud roar that rushed towards the British troops.

When they rushed in front of them, these "tin water tanks" not only strafed fiercely with heavy machine guns, but also bombarded them with artillery.

"Satan! The Devil ......"

The well-informed British did not know what it was, and they were so frightened that they immediately retreated.

The retreat quickly turned into a rout, and the soldiers threw their guns in their hands and ran like headless flies into the darkness.

Due to the lack of ships to transport tanks, the Huaxia Army only transported 12 tanks on the dock, but it seemed to have transported 120,000 troops.

The British army and police were scared to the core, and the rout trampled on each other along the way, resulting in countless dead and wounded, corpses littered the road, and some people who did not die immediately still crawled on the ground.

The tanks of the Huaxia Army didn't care about the dead or not, anyway, the enemy was going to run over them, and the road from the dock was crushed by the tanks into a terrifying road of flesh and blood.

Some British officers who were not afraid of death organized the infantry to use heavy machine guns and small-caliber artillery to strafe tanks, but because the soldiers had never been trained to strike such moving targets, the effectiveness was extremely poor in the rush of battle, and even if heavy machine gun bullets and shells occasionally hit the tank, it was only a flash of fire on the steel armor, and the damage to the tank was almost negligible.

However, this only provoked the anger of the Chinese soldiers who operated the tanks, and under the command of their commanders, they ran over the anti-tank positions, crushing the enemy who dared to fire at the tanks, along with their weapons.

For this mysterious steel weapon, the English thought it was "a weapon that non-humans could resist", and had to retreat all the way.

In order to give the Chinese people who were still resisting to the death in the city, Zheng Dingbang ordered to fire signal flares into the sky.

For a time, countless flares rose into the sky, lighting up the night sky of Xingapur.

"Our reinforcements are coming!"

"Haha, Nibanfan ghost Niji is dead!"

The Chinese who were still resisting immediately lifted their spirits and rose up to fight back against the indigenous forces and the British army, driving them out of the Chinese community, so that the British army could not take care of each other.

Because it was a direct landing at the wharf, the efficiency of loading and unloading was very high, and more and more Chinese troops landed on the landing, and by dawn, the number exceeded 30,000, which was not far from the 50,000 British troops in the Straits Settlements in Singapore.

Sir Mitchell, Governor of the Straits Settlements, wondered: "What is this?" And what about our combined fleet? How could the yellow-skinned monkey appear here and sneak up on us? ”

Of course, no one could answer Sir Mitchell's question.

Just as Sir Mitchell was depressed, the sound of a rumbling engine came overhead.

"The airship immediately takes off to meet the enemy!"

In the past few days, after being reminded by Paramount in the coalition fleet, the civilian officer Sir Mitchell has made a painful reflection, feeling that he can use airships to intercept the Chinese fleet that forced its way across the Strait of Malacca and appeared in the Indian Ocean to intercept the Oro fleet, so he is now very sensitive to the sky.

The English had more than 100 airships stationed in Singapore and received orders from the Governor to take off from the moorings immediately.

However, when the airship was about to take off, the group of planes that the Huaxia Army had taken off from the aircraft carrier had already flown into the sky and sprayed powerful firepower at the airship mooring ground.

Bombs, machine gun shells, heavy machine gun bullets, raindrops.

In just a minute or two, the airship on the mooring ground was smashed to pieces.

The airship immediately lost the opportunity to take off into the air for combat.

In fact, even if it can take to the air to fight, it is not the opponent of the powerful aircraft group of the Huaxia Army at all.

After receiving this news, the clever Sir Mitchell finally understood that the Combined Fleet must have either been completely destroyed or defeated.

"God, what should I do!"

While Sir Mitchell was distressed, a Chinese military plane flew over the Governor's Palace, dropping a piece of paper like snowflakes.

One soldier picked up a note and gave it to Sir Mitchell, only to see that it was written in English: "Your combined fleet has been completely destroyed, Singapore will forever belong to the Chinese Empire, the Governor of the Straits Settlements should not make unnecessary resistance, in order to avoid unnecessary casualties, surrender immediately!"
