General Xu Zhenpeng gritted his teeth and continued to order water to be poured into the left side of the King Kong to allow the battleship to regain balance. More than a dozen pumps on the battleship were running at full speed, pumping the water out of the battleship.

Overall, the damage to the Kongo was not serious, and at least most of the equipment on the ship was still in operation.

In fact, the fortune of the King Kong is already very good! Originally, a torpedo hit the stern of the Kongo! It's just that it didn't explode, it's a dumb mine!

General Xu Zhenpeng, who escaped the catastrophe, did not let the King Kong retreat. He ordered the four cruisers to continue the pursuit of the fleeing Dutch fleet.

As soon as the King Kong regained its balance, it adjusted its course and bombarded the Dutch with its remaining six main guns.

The Surabaya was bitten by the King Kong because of its large tonnage and slow speed. Six armor-piercing shells in one round, a total of five rounds!

The Surabaya, which had been in service for many years, was hit by two 356-mm heavy armor-piercing shells. One hit the stern above the waterline, penetrated the weak armor and exploded inside the ship, destroying the entire stern.

The second hit the middle of the hull, destroying the secondary guns, chimneys, boilers, bridges, firing towers, and so on. The entire superstructure of the Surabaya was almost completely destroyed. The shock wave of the explosion also shook the boiler that was still running in the boiler compartment! The Surabaya lost speed.

In addition, two near-misses exploded within 100 meters of the Surabaya's hull. The powerful water pressure tore through the Surabaya's already sturdy waterline armor. A large amount of sea water rushed in, and the entire warship quickly tilted and sank. The warship is finished.

At this time, the moon in the sky was obscured by drifting dark clouds, and the visibility on the battlefield quickly decreased. The two sides began to enter a state of scuffle, and it was not until an hour later that the battle was declared to be a terrible one.

Only one of the Dutch Navy's newest and fastest ships, the Java, managed to break out of the encirclement. The rest of the ships were sunk.

Several light warships of the Dutch fleet were sent to the bottom of the sea by a bombardment by four Caroline-class cruisers.

The battered HMS Hendrik and USS Breda destroyers on their way back to Batavia with difficulty. happened to be stopped by the Tong'an, who was hurrying back to the battlefield.

The two battleships, which were already incapacitated, refused the persuasion of the Tong'an to surrender. After the crew escaped, the sea valve was opened and the seabed sank directly.

On the side of the 1st Reconnaissance Fleet, the Kongo, escorted by several light warships, began to return home. Its destination is the Kure Naval Shipyard in Hiroshima. There are no dockyards and technicians in Pontianak and the mainland who can repair it.

The four cruisers, having sunk all the remaining light warships of the Dutch fleet, accelerated in the direction of the Java's escape.

As time passed, the sky began to shine and the sun began to rise over the distant place where the sea and the sky meet.

Under the light of the rising sun, the hull of the ship was hung with colors in several places, carrying the Java that had not yet extinguished the flames. The originally beautiful hull had been blackened by gunsmoke, and the entire warship was full of potholes and scars in many places. A look of distress.

As the only Dutch warship to escape the encirclement, the Java was now throwing several Caroline-class cruisers closely behind it at a high speed of nearly thirty knots.

Red-eyed and tired-eyed, Vice Admiral Helfry left the bridge and went to the deck.

Many of the extremely tired sailors ignored the cold of the early morning and just lay on the deck and fell asleep. All kinds of supplies were scattered all over the deck, and the shells were rolling around without anyone paying attention. The reddish waters covered almost the entire battleship.

"Your Excellency, where are we going now?" Major General Duerman, who was following him, asked in a hoarse voice.

At this moment, Major General Durman didn't know what he should say. The entire Dutch Kingdom's naval elite was almost completely lost in just one night!

Except for the Sumatra, which has not yet been finalized, the elite of the entire kingdom's navy is left with the Java under his feet!

Vice Admiral Helvery looked up at the stern of the ship, and a few wisps of black smoke were still clearly visible in the distance.

Shake your head slightly. Whispered, "Shake off the enemy ships chasing us first, we" looked up at the magnificent sea in the distance, and said in a deep voice, "Go to Brunei!" ”

Demon Capital, Garrison Headquarters. Gao Yang's room. Gao Yang, who sat on the sofa and watched the naval battle all night through the unmanned reconnaissance plane, sat up straight, stretched his waist, and yawned heavily.

Rubbing his reddened eyes. With a tired face, he asked, "Where is the Dutch warship going?" ”

"I don't know." The origin said lightly, "But judging from the current speed, it has a good chance of escaping the pursuit." You don't have to worry, though. I'll keep an eye on this ship all the time. ”

Gao Yang nodded, lit a cigarette to refresh himself, and said in a low voice, "I'm not in a hurry, when the Grand Fleet arrives, let them escort the convoy and send those Japanese mercenaries to Java." Let the Japanese go and fight the Dutch. ”

"The naval battle has been won, and there should be no problem with the land battle. Trained professional soldiers, under the cover of the navy, have a hard time losing against a group of indigenous militias who maintain local law and order. "But how are you going to end this war?" You can't keep fighting, can you? ”

"Of course, it will be over, and after the battleship is dealt with and the navy is avenged, you can file a claim against the Dutch." Gao Yang narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile.

"I don't think you're going to be able to actually get the benefits. Don't forget, the British probably already value you more than the Americans! Pretty much everything you're doing now is challenging the British bottom line! The origin said in a deep voice.

Gao Yang nodded and said, "I know that Borneo should be the most harvest given by the British." If you want to get something, you will really step on the bottom line of the British. I didn't want to get any more land from the Dutch, I needed something else, very useful one! ”

Gao Yang showed a relaxed smile on his face, took a sip of the teacup, and continued, "My biggest advantage is that I have a whole highly developed industrial time and space behind me. I'm ready to switch to economic warfare. ”

"Economic warfare? How? Dumping at low prices? Or do you just get something high-tech? Yuan asked suspiciously.

"Don't ask, just wait and see." Gao Yang raised his eyebrows lightly and said with a smile, "Okay, I'm tired after sitting all night, it's time to go to breakfast." ”

"Huh?" Yuan was surprised and said, "You still want to go to breakfast?" ”

"What's wrong? Why can't I go to dinner? I don't lose weight. Gao Yang said with a smile.

"Forgot about the engagement?" The origin said helplessly.

The originally relaxed look on Gao Yang's face froze instantly. I looked at my watch with some difficulty, my eyes opened suddenly, I swallowed my saliva, and shouted with a face full of annoyance, "Your sister!! Actually forgot?! Why don't you remind me?!! ”

"I'm sorry, I forgot too, I'm really sorry!" Origin serious apologies.

"It's night over there! I was missing all day, and I was under the watchful eye of the CIA! Are you going to change contractors? Gao Yang, who raised his head and sighed, was already full of anger at this moment.

This time it's really overdone! Don't mention the CIA or anything, how is Zheng Xiujing going to explain it!! Missing on the day of the engagement? Who would think that it was a marriage runaway!

Gao Yang covered his face with his hands and fell weakly on the sofa. With a long sigh, he said with a gloomy face, "I often walk by the river." How can you not get your shoes wet! It's just too TMD, isn't it? Just in time for me to have something to do? ”

"I'm really sorry! Because you haven't forgotten the two planes all this time, I haven't paid attention to that either. I didn't think about it until just now, so I'm really sorry. There was a deep apology in the original words. As a high-level intelligent AI, it's too much to say that this kind of thing is happening.

"I don't want to hear sorry, I just want to know what I should do now?" Gao Yang roared angrily.

"No matter how you deal with it, you should go back first." Origin said aloud.

"Go back?" Gao Yang turned over and sat up, his eyes red and shouted, "How can I go back?" The battle just ended here! The Commander-in-Chief of the Navy has already set a time for a meeting! And the reintegration meeting of the Army! And I can't leave at all! ”

"I suggest you make a clone here to replace you, just like you've done in Africa before." Origin whispered. It's just that Gao Yang was keenly aware that there seemed to be a trace of inexplicable excitement in the tone of the origin?

"No!" Gao Yang shook his head and refused. He said in a deep voice, "I am who I am!" There is no one to replace! ”

No matter how much you regret it, it will be resolved after all. Helpless, Gao Yang canceled all his schedules and announced that he was sick and needed to recuperate. During the break, all military affairs were entrusted to Commanders Weix and Lin Jianzhang.

People's livelihood matters are handled by Duan's administration. Everything will be talked about until the illness is cured! After sending all the people who came to visit him away, Gao Yang hurried back to the modern time and space.

In modern time and space, in a CIA modified truck near Gaoyang Villa. The leader of the operation team responsible for monitoring Gao Yang, Chinese agent Du Qixi, is chewing gum. Looking at the surveillance screen with a quiet face.

"It's been more than twelve hours, and the target still hasn't appeared." A strong black man standing behind him said in a deep voice.

"Hmm." Du Qixi, who had a light smile on the corner of his mouth, blew out a bubble and asked softly, "Have you sent someone in to see it?" ”

The black agent shook his head slightly. He said in a deep voice, "I can't get in, the security measures of the villa are very tight!" ”

Du Qixi stretched out his hand to pause the video, and the picture stayed at the moment when Gao Yang entered the villa last night.

He shook his head slightly, chuckled, and whispered, "It's really funny, someone can play disappear in the United States under the nose of the CIA?" ”

The bright eyes gradually turned cold, and he stretched out his hand and nodded on Gao Yang's body on the screen, and muttered in a voice that only he could hear, "Are we too incompetent, or do you have some interesting secrets?" (To be continued......)
