Chapter 117: Special Warfare Fleet One
If we act tonight, there will be many Dutch transport ships on the ocean carrying thousands of Dutch soldiers to evacuate to Java, Sumatra and other places, leaving too much trouble for the Chinese army to seize these places!
Before the Huaxia Army did not have its own navy, the capture of any beachhead in Java, Sumatra and other places with a little fire blocking would be fatal!
But if you don't take decisive action tonight, if something happens tomorrow night, you may lose the perfect opportunity to use the special forces to take over the entire fleet of the Dutch forever!
It's a tough decision!
Hu Zhen had already circled the war room several times with his hands behind his back, and Su Wenzhen and a group of staff officers did not dare to make a sound when they were standing.
"Order all units to attack and harass the city of Pontianak immediately, and give me a lively fight, which will end at two o'clock in the morning!" Hu Zhen decided to change the plan on the spot.
Won't carry out the ship-grabbing plan tonight?
The staff officers felt a little disappointed when they heard this, after all, they had been preparing for so long, and this was a key step for the Huaxia army to turn into a butterfly and have naval ships.
If there is a navy, the future of the Huaxia Army is limitless from now on, but if there is no navy, the Huaxia Army can only be trapped on the island of Borneo forever.
Now the commander-in-chief has to postpone the implementation of the plan, which contains huge risks, even if the purchase of ships in Europe and through the purchase of ships through South American countries, but there are many variables, after all, it is not obtained through the battle, in case of blockade, it may also be a bamboo basket for nothing.
Even Su Wenzhen, who was usually very calm, was a little anxious: "Sir, ...... tonight?" ”
Hu Zhen waved his hand and said: "The plan will be changed to be implemented during dawn in the early morning, but before the ship-seizing operation is carried out, we must use all means to make the Dutch army and fleet play to death and make them exhausted, so that our special combat team can do it!" ”
"The ship-seizing plan still has to be implemented in the early hours of the morning!" The staff officers in the war room almost cheered with a bang, but due to the constraints of military discipline, everyone only dared to show excited looks on their faces.
"Yes, I immediately went to the telegraph room to arrange for a telegram to inform the ministries of action!" Su Wenzhen was also very excited, and he immediately trotted to the telegraph room.
The Huaxia Army has a telegraph, which is a combat weapon that all the powerful units in the world today do not have, and the entire army of tens of thousands of people, from the headquarters to the most basic combat units, can be as flexible as an arm. Hu Zhen's order was transmitted to every combat unit with a telegram in a few minutes, and it immediately began to act quickly.
In the night, gunshots rang out in many places outside Pontianak City, and countless voices were boiling.
This was the surprise attack of the Huaxia army on the Dutch positions in several places at the same time in the dark.
As soon as the Dutch army entered the position, the fortifications did not have time to be built, so they were attacked, and many people were killed and wounded, and several positions were seized by the Huaxia army at once.
Aksun in the headquarters did not rest for most of the night, and at this time he was so busy that he was dizzy, and when he heard gunshots in several places, he didn't know what was happening, so he had to wait and see what happened.
It took nearly an hour for the Dutch army to figure out the situation of the attack, and Aksun immediately mobilized reserves to pounce in the direction of the Huaxia army's attack.
However, when Dutch reinforcements arrived, the Huaxia army disappeared without a trace.
It was dark, and the Dutch did not dare to rush out of their positions in pursuit, so they had to let the attackers disappear into the night.
But soon gunfire rang out elsewhere, and Aksun had to send reinforcements to the place where the gunfire rang out.
But the result was the same, as soon as the Dutch reinforcements arrived, the Huaxia army that shouted and attacked with guns disappeared.
The Dutch army had already returned from afar, and they were already exhausted, and they were even more exhausted by such repeated harassment and attacks.
The Huaxia army's offensive showed no sign of stopping at all, and it was still slowly pointing the spearhead of the attack at the dock port area by the sea.
After tasting the red wine, Dipole and Rear Admiral Tilis drank coffee again, and after drinking the coffee, he felt that it was not enough, and asked the servant to take out a barrel of beer and drink it.
When the gunshots rang out, both of them were slightly drunk.
"What's going on?" Dipole jumped up and shouted.
A messenger sent by Akson came outside, reporting that the position in the city of Pontianak had been attacked by the Huaxia army, and that Aksong was personally mobilizing men and horses to block the attack, so please rest assured that Pontianak must be firmly in control and will not be taken away by the Huaxia army again.
But the gunshots kept ringing out one after another, and they didn't stop, and even extended to the wharf of the seaside port area.
Dibor was very dissatisfied with this, and said drunkly: "Hmph, this old guy Axon is really useless!" Not even a few little thieves can't stop it! ”
When Tilis heard Dipole's words, a smell of wine rushed to his head, and his face immediately turned red, and he stood up and saluted Dipole and said, "Your Excellency the Governor, I will immediately go back to the fleet and command the fleet to bombard those hateful Chinese people and solve your problems!" ”
Dipole was very impressed by this, and said happily: "Okay, dear General Tilis, you are the youngest and most promising general in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. ”
Covered in alcohol, Tilis hurried back to the flagship Amsterdam on a small sampan, and immediately sent an order to the whole fleet to bombard the enemy's lights and flags on the shore.
The officer on duty at the headquarters smelled that Tilis was full of alcohol, and then looked at the shore, only to see that it was pitch black, and thought that if the shelling did not know where the target was, the effect of the forcible shelling would definitely be unsatisfactory, so he asked: "General, are you sure that you want to shell the enemy on the shore?" ”
Tilis was upset: "I ordered the shelling, the shelling, where did you get so much nonsense?" ”
"But in the dark, we can't see the target of the shelling?"
"What is not clear about the target, where there is gunfire on the shore, there is an enemy, where there is fire, there is an enemy! You immediately send me the signal of the lights and flags, and notify the whole fleet of the shelling on the opposite shore! ”
The officer on duty smelled the smell of alcohol all over Tiris, sniffled, and hesitated: "General, ...... you?" ”
Tilris's head was very sensitive, and he immediately understood what was going on with the officer on duty, and suddenly became furious: "You think I'm drunk, I'm not drunk!" I tell you, I have just returned from the Governor, and the present army cannot be counted on, and this is what the Governor has asked us to immediately shell the enemy on the shore! ”
"Yes, General, I'll do it immediately!" The officer on duty dared to carry it hard with Tilris, and hurriedly rushed out of the headquarters and ran to arrange for the whole fleet to send a light and flag signal for the shelling of the opposite shore.
"The command wants us to immediately shell the opposite shore!"
The officers and sentries of the ships of the Dutch East India Fleet saw the light and flag from the flagship, and hurried to report to their respective captains and inform the command of the order.
"Shelling from the other side!" The captains of the ships jumped up, inspected it for themselves, and confirmed that it was an order from the fleet headquarters, so they ordered the ships under their jurisdiction to fire and store steam power, adjust the attitude of the warships, and slowly approach the shore to shell the enemy who was unknown in the darkness, regardless of the darkness of the sky.
