In addition to having the world's largest natural harbor, it also has more than 70 unique excellent ports, and in the 1870s, it was Australia's only foreign trade port, from here to the United Kingdom more than a million tons of resources were shipped to the United Kingdom every year.

With the occupation of the mud by the Shence army of the Chinese Empire, Admiral Chen Shaoyi issued an order to loot, and the wealth of the entire mud city will be taken away, never left to the British, so that they can have the strength to fight the Chinese Empire.

In the 1870s, Australia's total population was about 8.7 million, mostly living in coastal areas, with a high concentration of populations, while megacities like Muddy had a population of 1 million.

The outbreak of the Fifth Yapian War, the British army attacking the fortress of Guam has invested more than 200,000 people, most of whom are from Australia to recruit soldiers, Chen Shaoyi once even planned to come to several massacres, so that the British army completely lost the source of troops, but was ultimately vetoed by the Chinese Emperor Li Weiguo.

Li Weiguo didn't want the Chinese Imperial Shence Army to become the notorious Nazi army, if it was in ancient times when there was no public opinion and telegrams, no one would know about the massacre of millions of civilians, such as the Mongol army slaughtered hundreds of millions of Song people, and the Qing army slaughtered tens of millions of Ming people, which will soon be forgotten by the Chinese and the whole world, but in modern times, all large-scale massacres will be remembered by people all over the world and nailed to the pillar of shame, typical examples are Germany and Japan after World War II.

Therefore, Li Weiguo saw Chen Shaoyi's telegram and specially told him not to carry out this kind of ****** massacre.

However, in order to cut off the source of British troops, there is not only one way to kill people, but also to rob the enemy's rear of money and materials.

Therefore, with Li Weiguo's tacit approval, Chen Shaoyi immediately organized the officers and men of the 3rd and 4th Marine Brigades. The city of Muddy began to be swept and plundered.

Snatching things is what the invading army of every imperialist country is doing, so it will not be angry, everyone is a virtue, and future generations will not be able to scold the robbers of one of the countries alone.

The first step is to drive all the muddy citizens out into the open area. Pull up barbed wire and enclose them, like a makeshift concentration camp. More than one million muddy citizens, enclosing is a big project, if relying on the Chinese Imperial Army's two marine brigades alone is not enough, so the clever Chinese Imperial Army began to arrest strong men, driving more than 100,000 strong men to work, less than a day to build hundreds of concentration camps, entrap millions of mud citizens.

Step 2. The soldiers of the Chinese Imperial Army drove trucks, street by street, door to door, smashing windows and doors, looting valuable things in every household, gold, silver, jewelry, and precious jewelry in the first place, then grain, livestock, and pulled back to improve their lives.

Of course, ordinary residents put it last. Pick a rich family to loot first. In addition, the city hall vaults, banks, and shops in the city of Sydney are the focus of looting. Often blow up a bank, get the property on top of the busy dozen streets of income.

How much wealth would a large city with a population of one million have?

The Chinese Imperial Army didn't know if it was not looted, and it was shocked when it was raided.

After five days of looting, there were 10 tons of gold alone, more than 70 tons of silver, gold and silver jewelry, all kinds of jewelry and watches, antiques, porcelain, etc. It was directly filled with 228 containers, 1.03 million chickens, ducks, cattle, horses and sheep, 15.4 million catties of grain, 20,000 and more than 20 million banknotes looted from banks, adding up to a rough conservative estimate of the total value of 200 million pounds.

Of course. There are other messy things that cannot be counted and estimated, such as the oil paintings of Westerners, which were worthless in the Chinese Empire, and were almost torn and burned by soldiers at first or used as butt wiping tissue, and then they were stopped, and thousands of oil paintings were looted and placed in a single container, the value of which cannot be estimated. There are also those guns, ammunition and other military materials for the British Navy and Army, and there are more than 100,000 tons.

In addition, more than one million livestock and more than 10 million catties of grain could not be taken away, so the officers and men of the Chinese Imperial Army, the navy and land, and the officers and men of the navy and land feasted on big fish and meat every day, eating with their mouths full of oil.

Also, after the Chinese Imperial Army looted the city, it was natural to destroy the evidence, just like the British and French troops sacked the Old Summer Palace, and it was impossible to count it if it burned down.

The fire burned over the mud for three days and three nights, and then the Chinese Imperial Army released millions of mud people and let them go home. But they had no home and there was a shortage of food, so the Chinese Imperial Army deliberately left a small amount of food in some places for these foreigners to compete and kill each other.

That's right, it is to kill each other, the Chinese Imperial Army does not do it himself, and it does not need to be charged with the last butcher, but it can let foreigners kill each other, and the goal is the same.

The Chinese Imperial Army retreated to the Garden Island Naval Base, because it took at least a week for the main force of the British Royal Navy fleet to come to reinforce at least a week, so Chen Shaoyi sent the Navy and Marines to attack several other nearby cities, and after defeating the British army, the focus was on robbing banks and shops, and then setting fire to them, and for the local factories, all the machinery and equipment were blown up to prevent them from producing weapons and equipment for the British army.

On the eighth day, Chen Shaoyi ordered the "sweep" to be stopped, the navy and army concentrated at the Huayuan Island naval base, all the plundered gold and silver treasures and materials were loaded onto ships, more than 600 large and medium-sized transport ships, most of which were snatched from local ship owners, under the supervision of several teams of Chinese imperial army soldiers, detoured to the South Pacific, returned directly to Burma, and then found a way to transport them back to China.

To this end, Chen Shaoyi specially dispatched 20 warships to escort the convoy, and telegraphed to the Imperial Admiralty, and sent a convoy from the Imperial Indian Ocean Fleet to meet along the way.

The 4th Marine Brigade was left at the Huayuan Island Naval Base, and Chen Shaoyi's order to them was "If the decisive battle at sea is won, come back to meet them, and if the naval battle is drawn or defeated, then leave them alone, and they will fend for themselves and launch guerrilla warfare in Australia, anyway, Australia is vast and sparsely populated, and some places are to settle 6,000 officers and soldiers of the 4th Marine Brigade." ”

Chen Shaoyi also left grain and livestock for the Fourth Marine Brigade to be fed and raised.

After settling everything, Chen Shaoyi led the Pacific Fleet to quietly withdraw from the Garden Island Naval Base at night and set up an ambush in the waters of the Solomon Islands, preparing for a decisive battle with the main force of the British Imperial Navy that came to the rescue.

Immediately after the withdrawal of the Pacific Fleet, the Garden Island naval base blocked the message and imposed strict martial law on the surrounding area.

Meantime. The 4th Marine Brigade took the initiative to launch attacks on cities deep in Australia, with the aim of opening a line of communication into the Australian hinterland so that it could retreat from the Garden Island base at any time.

The actions of the 4th Marine Brigade immediately touched the nerves of the British troops in Australia, and they had no time to worry about the movements of the Chinese Imperial Fleet on the coast.

Guam, as the news of the raid by the Imperial Chinese fleet on the Sydney Garden Island naval base reached Matt's ears. The British admiral suddenly vomited blood.

You know, Matt always thought that the main fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy was on its way to Guam, so he had already assembled the fleet and prepared for a decisive battle.

However, the left could not wait, the right could not wait, and after a week, there was no news of the arrival of the main force of the Chinese Imperial Navy.

Matt was very detailed about MI5's intelligence, believing that the Imperial Chinese Navy must be hiding in the waters not far from Guam and waiting for an opportunity. So, Matt ordered the fleet to start moving. It took the initiative to search and advance in the direction where the Imperial Chinese Navy might come, but the target was never found.

Matt struggled for several days, and the communication ship from the mud took three days to reach Guam, but found that Matt was not in Guam, and waited for a day and did not come back, only asked the British ships near Guam to inform Matt, and on the fifth day Matt learned that the Chinese Imperial Navy did not come to Guam, but raided the mud garden island naval base.

This Nima was pitted to death!

Matt was so angry that he banged his head against the wall. He was well aware of the importance of the Garden Island Naval Base, where there were hundreds of thousands of tons of military supplies. If it is destroyed by the Imperial Chinese Navy, then what will his fleet eat? What to drink? Do you drink the northwest wind on a hungry stomach? Without guns and ammunition, what are you going to fight with!

Matt didn't even think about it, and immediately gathered the fleet to return to the rescue of the mud.

"Could there be some conspiracy in this?"

As an admiral, Matt is not a fool. He still has the ability, but the question is, even if the Imperial Chinese Navy has a conspiracy, won't he go back to the rescue?

Obviously impossible, even if Matt is ruthless and does not rescue. The Downing Street councillors didn't say yes either, so they had to be rescued.

"What if you are ambushed by the Imperial Chinese Navy? The Chinese are too cunning! ”

Matt thought twice and began to develop a counter-ambush plan.

Matt searched for a lot of places on the charts, and he soon discovered the complex terrain of the Solomon Islands seas, which was too suitable for ambushes.

"If the Imperial Chinese Navy ambushes us halfway, it will definitely choose the waters near the Solomon Islands, where there are many islands and bays, and we can't find them at all if they hide."

"If you search for them separately, you must have fallen for their conspiracy!"

"But if you don't search for them, how do you lure them in?"

Matt racked his brains and anxious a large group of staff officers to study the specific battle plan.

In the end, after careful consideration, Matt decided to divide the fleet into six teams, one team carefully passed through the sea area where the Solomon Islands could be ambushed, 20 nautical miles before and after, once something happened, the ambushed team immediately stood by for help, and the other five teams could support at any time to counter-encircle the Chinese Imperial Navy. At that time, if the Chinese Imperial Navy really set up an ambush there, if they attacked, they could only attack a group of British ships, and they would soon be counter-surrounded, and if they did not attack, they could only watch the British fleet pass by in a group, and the ambush failed.

Matt was very cautious, and did not enter immediately after arriving in the waters of the Solomon Islands, but kept sending fast warships to inquire about the news, and soon learned that the movement of the main fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy was not found in the waters near the mud.

"It's really funny!"

Matt snorted coldly, he was almost certain that the Imperial Chinese Navy was in the waters of the Solomon Islands, ready to ambush the British Imperial Navy fleet.

"Inform the detachments that the main force of the Imperial Chinese Navy is nearby, and let them act as planned, go to watch out for the enemy's submarines and fish and radium boats, and the escort fleet will be on full alert."

Matt didn't dare to be careless, knowing that the Chinese Imperial Navy had submarines, but the British Navy was superior in numbers, with more than two hundred frigates, scattered like a net, carefully searching and advancing, protecting the capital ships from attack.

In Rodia Bay, East Solomon Islands, the main fleet of the Chinese Imperial Navy was secretly hidden here, and soon Chen Shaoyi got the news of the British Navy fleet.

"This Matt is really not a good stubble, he is so careful, we have no chance to ambush him at all, but will be ambushed by the British Navy."

Thinking of this, Chen Shaoyi smiled slightly, playing conspiracy and tricks, you British are far from being the opponents of the Chinese.

"Order, all fleets abandon the ambush, immediately divert to the Shuerpeng Trench, and we will go to Guam!"

If the British fleet could not be ambushed, then the tactics should be changed, and the rescue of Guam was the real task of the Imperial Chinese Navy. Since the main force of the British fleet returned to Australia, the British fleet on the other side of Guam was at most three or two kittens, and it was not at all the opponent of the main fleet of the Chinese Imperial Navy. At the same time, there must still be tens of thousands of British troops fighting on Guam, and Chen Shaoyi decided to send the 3rd Marine Brigade to Guam first, after all, Guam cannot afford to lose.

As a result, the original ambush battle did not start, and it became a tactic of diverting the tiger from the mountain.

Chen Shaoyi led the Pacific Fleet to reinforce Guam, while Matt wandered around the waters near the Solomon Islands for two days without being attacked, and received the urging of the Australian governor, so he hurried to the mud.

When he arrived at the mud and saw a ruined city, especially the Huayuan Island Naval Base, which was completely occupied by the Chinese Imperial Army, and hundreds of thousands of tons of supplies were gone, Matt was suddenly angry and vomited three liters of blood.

"Fire the cannon and blow up the bastards on the other side!"

Matt roared as hundreds of British battleships fired in unison, violently attacking the Garden Island Naval Base.

In an instant, bullets rained down, and the entire Garden Island Naval Base was in flames.

The 4th Marine Brigade of the Imperial Chinese Navy retreated an hour ago, and all the grain and livestock that could not be taken away were burned, and a large number of radium was buried in the base, all of which were random, and it only took a few minutes for these radium to be buried, but it was extremely difficult to dig them out.

Before leaving, he had to pit the British army, which was too in line with the style of the Chinese Imperial Army.

The 4th Marine Brigade avoided the coastline and avoided being bombarded by British ships, which made Matt mad with anger, his hair turned white overnight, and he wanted to take revenge, but he could only exert his strength against the air, and his hair was not angry and white, which was simply unreasonable.

The 4th Marine Brigade was very arrogant, and the British troops on the ground could not defeat them at all, and watched them evacuate the Garden Island Naval Base and enter the Australian interior.

The plague gods did not leave, which made the British army in Australia dumbfounded, this is the rhythm that must be stationed in Australia and not leave!

"Report, within a radius of several hundred nautical miles, no movement of the Chinese Imperial Navy has been found, we suspect that the Chinese Imperial Navy has left, and their target is probably ......"

"I'm afraid what?"

"Guam, I'm afraid!"

"What? Oh no, Fack! ”

Matt came to his senses in an instant, this Nima has fallen into someone's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and the 30,000 British troops on Guam are going to be miserable!

Poof......

Matt is down again! (To be continued.) )
