Chapter 612: Brown's Sorrow
The Sea Blue mercilessly rammed and sank a Dutch warship, and the next morning it had become a well-known news in the streets and alleys of Batavia, paper could not contain the fire, even if Brown wanted to cover up the incident, but the Sea Blue stopped in the open sea, and the muzzle of the gun was aimed at Batavia, this situation was obviously different from the usual interactions.
Everyone knows that there was an unpleasant quarrel between the Australians and the Dutch, and they did it directly, no one is a fool, and they sank a warship, it is definitely not as simple as an accident, and the Australians will never have such an accident.
For a while, there was a black cloud of war over Batavia, and some well-informed people already knew why the Australians would sink the Dutch warship, and the Dutch's cross-border behavior in Malacca had made the Australian old very dissatisfied, and this dissatisfaction could be reflected in all aspects, and some people even knew that the Dutch seemed to want to seize Malacca, and the Dutch dared to do such a thing, so don't blame the Australians for retaliation.
Now it is just a warship, and if it goes to war, it is estimated that Batavia's fleet will be completely destroyed.
Wang Tiezhu smiled and looked at the Dutch warship that had been smashed into a pair of wood chips not far away, smiled, and after saying that he deserved it, he walked directly into his office.
This made the guys on the side puzzled, why not teach the Dutch a lesson at this time, Tang They know how powerful Australia is.
The Dutch did regret a little, regretting that they challenged the bottom line of the Australians so easily, brought trouble to themselves, and the sign that was finally erected was beaten by the Australians again at that moment and even ruthlessly crushed.
In the face of absolute strength, the Dutch have no qualifications to negotiate, only two options: obedience and no, and if they want to retaliate, they can only solve it by force.
Brown has sent someone to the Sea Blue to question why this is happening, Wang Tiehammer sneered, why do you know better than us.
On the one hand, they cooperated with the Australians and on the other hand, they suppressed Australia by cooperating with the Manchus, and such a thing could only be done by the Dutch. No one else can do it, and this shameless behavior makes Australians very angry.
The Dutch in Malacca have not attacked Australia at this time, but they are in trouble, Spain has come to get involved, what are they involved in, this kind of obvious thing makes the Dutch speechless, it seems that they are thinking too much.
Since the Netherlands could cooperate with the Manchus, so could Spain, and even Spain would never suggest stepping on such a few feet as long as it obtained greater benefits.
Questioning didn't do anything for Wang Tiehammer. It's clear now that the Dutch won't mind if they want to go to war with Australia, but only if they have the ability to sink the Sea Blue.
If you don't have this ability, then it's better to wash and sleep, Australians are definitely not jealous, they will never watch their interests be eroded.
Now Brown can only pray that the garrison in Malacca will not act rashly, and on the other hand, he will send people to Hong Kong to transfer back troops, and only the withdrawal of troops can discourage the old Australians, as for the issue of compensation for the sunken warship. I'm afraid it's very difficult to solve, and I can only become a victim once.
The Australians wouldn't pay for the warship, just as they did when they attacked Batavia, and they didn't mind another shelling. The Australians did not use artillery, and to some extent it was already a face-saving one.
If everyone who used artillery knew that the Netherlands had gone to war with Australia completely, and that the defeat would have been transmitted back to Europe, the balance of the European battlefield would have to be broken again. He didn't want to break that scale, and Brown didn't want to break that balance because of that.
There is no choice but to swallow your anger. This was the best option, and even Brown politely invited Wang Tiehammer ashore, saying that there must be some misunderstanding between the two sides, and there must be a conspiracy of the Spaniards in it, and they always wanted to see a war between Australia and the Netherlands.
Whether waged in Europe or in the Far East, such a war would only consume the Dutch national strength, so that Spain would have a chance.
It may be a good idea, but it is very difficult to do it, but this does not affect the Dutch to die themselves, and they themselves have put themselves in a desperate situation, so it is no wonder that they fell into a hole in the middle of the night.
The Sea Blue finally entered Hong Kong, after all, it was not a wise choice to start a war with the Dutch at this time, their purpose was to go to Hong Kong for deterrence, so that the Manchus knew that if they dared to fight the idea of Liangguang, they would definitely not give them good fruit to eat.
Whoever dares to have an idea about Liangguang is an idea of the Australians, so whether it is the Dutch or the Manchus, Australia will make its own gesture to express its opposition, which is to declare its position in this region.
The Dutch tried to unite with the Manchus, trying to completely crush the Australians and get them out of Southeast Asia, which was obviously impossible, and the Manchus did not have the strength to support them.
With the Australians' understanding of the Manchus, their words are difficult to convince, and even if they sign a contract, there are times when they break the contract, so the Dutch actually expect too much from the Manchus, and they actually think that the Manchus can cooperate with him.
In Australia's view, the Dutch and the Manchu alliance is a bad move, even if the alliance with Spain is much better than the Manchu Qing, according to the reliable information received, the Spanish fleet attacked the Malay Peninsula Dutch possessions, this kind of rat trap behavior, the Australians know that Spain is just borrowing light, but it doesn't matter, Australia does not mind giving Spain a chance to distribute benefits.
The Sea Blue stayed in Batavia and did not leave, the more it showed that they wanted enough benefits, the Batavia Viceroyalty did not compensate for a little something, I am afraid it would not work, every time I saw the Sea Blue, there was no good thing, this was Brown's feeling, if he could, he really wanted the Sea Blue to sink, as long as there was no Sea Blue, the Australian Navy was not enough in his opinion.
Not to mention the entire Dutch fleet, even the fleet in Batavia is enough to deter the Australians, the Australians have too few ships, it is impossible to defeat the Netherlands, Brown once thought about blowing up the Sea Blue through spies, but in the end it was not successful, the Australians are very strict with this ship, not everyone can get close, even the soldiers of the Navy are not all qualified to approach the ship.
Brown was still thinking about how to solve the problem, Wang Hammer's compensation agreement was sent, this accident was characterized as the Dutch are fully responsible, and they are responsible for compensating for the cost of repairing the damage caused by the Sea Blue, seeing the agreement, Brown is so angry that he can't breathe, obviously he is the party who was hit, but he wants to compensate the other party so much money. It's so unreasonable.
The Sea Blue mercilessly rammed and sank a Dutch warship, and the next morning it had become a well-known news in the streets and alleys of Batavia, paper could not contain the fire, even if Brown wanted to cover up the incident, but the Sea Blue stopped in the open sea, and the muzzle of the gun was aimed at Batavia, this situation was obviously different from the usual interactions.
Everyone knew that there was an unpleasant quarrel between the Australians and the Dutch, and they did it directly, and no one was stupid and sank a warship. It's definitely not an accident, and Australians never have such an accident.
For a while, there was a black cloud of war over Batavia, and some well-informed people already knew why the Australians would sink the Dutch warship, and the Dutch's cross-border behavior in Malacca had made the Australian old very dissatisfied, and this dissatisfaction could be reflected in all aspects, and some people even knew that the Dutch seemed to want to seize Malacca, and the Dutch dared to do such a thing, so don't blame the Australians for retaliation.
Now it's just a warship. If it were to go to war, it was estimated that Batavia's fleet would be completely annihilated.
Wang Tiezhu smiled and looked at the Dutch warship that had been smashed into a pair of wood chips not far away, smiled, and after saying that he deserved it, he walked directly into his office.
This made the guy on the side puzzled. Why don't you teach the Dutch a lesson at this time, soup they know how powerful Australia is.
The Dutch did have some regrets, regretting that they challenged the bottom line of the Australians so easily and brought trouble to themselves. The sign that was finally erected was once again beaten by the Australians at that moment and even ruthlessly crushed.
In the face of absolute strength, the Dutch were not qualified to negotiate. There are only two options: obey or not, and if you want to retaliate, you can only solve it by force.
Brown has sent someone to the Sea Blue to question why this is happening, Wang Tiehammer sneered, why do you know better than us.
On the one hand, cooperating with the Australians and on the other hand, by cooperating with the Manchus to suppress Australia, such a thing can only be done by the Dutch, and others can't do it, this shameless behavior makes the Australians very angry.
The Dutch in Malacca have not attacked Australia at this time, but they are in trouble, Spain has come to get involved, what are they involved in, this kind of obvious thing makes the Dutch speechless, it seems that they are thinking too much.
Since the Netherlands could cooperate with the Manchus, so could Spain, and even Spain would never suggest stepping on such a few feet as long as it obtained greater benefits.
Questioning didn't do anything for the King, and it was clear that the Dutch wouldn't mind if they wanted to go to war with Australia, but only if they were able to sink the Sea Blue.
If you don't have this ability, then it's better to wash and sleep, Australians are definitely not jealous, they will never watch their interests be eroded.

The Australians will not pay for the warship, just like they did when they attacked Batavia, they don't mind another shelling, the Australians did not use artillery, in a way it is already giving face.
If everybody with artillery knew that the Netherlands had gone to war with Australia once the defeat was transmitted back to Europe, then the balance of the European battlefield would probably have to be broken again, and he didn't want to break that scale, and Brown didn't want to break that balance because of this.
