On the blue sea, four passenger ships are moving slowly, this is the fleet carrying the king and his courtiers of Sarawak, as well as the big merchants and farmers of Sarawak. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, on the middle of the ship, the heir of the Brooke family, the former king of Sarawak, Charles . Jason. Mr. Brooke, righteous and indignant, said to his former subordinates: "I will come back, I will go to the British Parliament to complain, to the cabinet to appeal, to the media, to denounce the despicable and shameless aggression of South China, I will ask Britain to send troops to help me regain the property that belongs to me, the territory belonging to the Brooke family, and South China will definitely tremble under the guns of the British Empire." ”

Brooke's face contorted, and he clenched his fists and waved them as he spoke, showing his determination and anger.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I think the British Empire will help us, after all, we have paid so many taxes for the Empire, and there are many plantations there that belong to British merchants, and the Empire will not sit idly by."

"When the time comes, we should demand compensation from Nanhua, ten times and a hundred times the compensation, and the damned yellow people dare to threaten and expel the whites and encroach on our property, and they should all be hanged."

"I think that King Guo Yu of Nanhua must be crazy, he dared to take the initiative to provoke the majesty of the British Empire, this is unforgivable, King George V will definitely send troops to protect you, after all, you are still a lord and nobleman of the empire, and the property of the nobles is sacrosanct."

The white man in the room was ashamed of being bullied by Nanhua and a group of Asians. Their former slaves, the people they once looked down upon the most, were oppressed on their heads. How can these white men who have always been high swallow this breath.

By this time, the fleet had been out of port for a day, and they were ready to cross the Jawa Sea, rest in Jakarta, cross the Indian Ocean, and finally cross the Red Sea and the Suez Canal into the Mediterranean Sea to return to their homeland of the United Kingdom.

The journey was long, equivalent to crossing half a world, but they had no choice.

"The ocean is vast. Sometimes gentle, but sometimes bursting. Voyages are dangerous," Guo Yu said.

Two submarines appeared like ghosts in front of the flotilla, and they were one of the guests sent to see off the Sarawak fleet.

The periscope sticks out of the water. From afar, he observed the slowly moving fleet.

"The target has been confirmed, a total of four passenger ships, the same number as the mission."

"Lock onto the target, ready to fire."

"2 nautical miles away, no interference."

"The torpedo launcher is ready."

"Radar-guided lock-onto target."

Submarine No. 10 and No. 11 ships had been sent to the Jawa Sea a day earlier to be in charge of the ambush, waiting for the guests to come to the door themselves, and now that everything was ready, it was time to start.

A potential enemy is also an enemy, and Guo Yu will never be for that cheap mercy. And let yourself get into even the slightest bit of trouble.

Although he knew that they couldn't make any big waves, Guo Yu was afraid of trouble. People who don't want to leave trouble for themselves, since they can solve this matter neatly, why leave trouble.

After seeing that everything was ready, the captain directly gave the order to attack, "Launch." ”

Two torpedoes were fired from each submarine, and the torpedoes passed through the bottom of the sea. If you get closer, you can see the distance of action two meters below the surface of the water. There are several dolphin-like figures moving fast.

The continuous explosion sound of "boom boom boom" suddenly sounded, this kind of torpedo that can blow up a huge ship of 10,000 tons, used to deal with this kind of passenger ship of only a few hundred tons, is simply a bully, the part that was hit, directly blown out of a large hole, and even some ships were blown up directly in the middle.

Debris flew everywhere, and many people were killed on the spot without having time to react, and many more were carried to the bottom of the sea by the rapidly sinking hull.

On the sea, many people escaped the first section, but this is the sea, the endless sea far from the mainland, and who can survive on their own, the waves hit, and many people did not hold on for a few minutes, and sank to the bottom of the sea.

In a few minutes, the originally noisy sea area slowly became silent, and finally there was no sound, only the waves were still undefined, just like his body shape that had not changed for thousands of years, and there would be no change due to what happened here.

Half an hour later, two Nanhua nearshore speedboats arrived at the area where the incident occurred, and now there is no living person in sight except for some wood and debris that are still floating. They spun around twice and then went straight back to their lives.

This is also one of the send-off guests, if the submarine force is not successful, they are the last to mend the knife, but now it seems that the submarine force mission has been completed very successfully.

Later history, it is likely that the South China Kingdom expelled the king and ministers of Sarawak, and the group of losers, on their way home, were swallowed by the sea, and that's it.

Now the South China Kingdom is preparing for war with all its might, preparing to take Brunei in one fell swoop and complete the unification of Kalimantan Island, and in the royal palace of the Brunei Darussalam Monarchy, Sultan Mohammed Jaliru Alan II is discussing with his courtiers and the British garrison how to deal with the invasion of South China.

The secrecy of the South China Kingdom was very good, and after the capture of the Sabah and Sarawak countries, the news was learned by Brunei, but the army of the South China Kingdom was about to reach the doorstep.

Brunei was invaded by the British in 1888 and became a British protectorate, in fact, it is a colony in disguise, but it has more rights than a colony, nominally Brunei is still a sultanate, but in essence it has become a British colony.

The British sent officials to take charge of all government affairs in Brunei, and the colonists wantonly plundered economic resources, seized land to grow rubber, manipulated the development of forest resources, and the country's finances were poor, mainly relying on loans to survive.

At this time, Brunei's main population was Malayans and Chinese, and the British stationed only 2,000 soldiers, but recruited no less than 50,000 servants.

"Mr. Cliff. I don't know how you think you will deal with the attack of South China, you know, although Brunei has 50,000 soldiers. But Sarawak also had 30,000 soldiers, and they were also defeated, and now I hope that Britain will be able to stop South China. The Sultan of Brunei said.

The Sultan of Brunei frowned darkly and thinly, although all the rights of Brunei were controlled by the British, but after all, he was still the Sultan of Brunei, the king of this country, if South China called. He's going to lose even the last bit of power.

Garrison Officer Cliff had just heard the news, and he said angrily, "I will quickly pass the news to Sir Atjan, the Governor of Nanyang." Inform the country of what happened in Borneo, and the empire will definitely send warships to raze Nanhua directly to the ground, and I don't know if the Chinese people have died. ”

"But now. How are we going to face the enemy, they have already occupied Sabah and Sarawak, I don't think it will be too long before they will attack Brunei. The Sultan of Brunei said.

"I will now send a telegram to Sir Atjan to contact the country and stop the actions of the South China Kingdom, which I do not think will dare to provoke the wrath of the British Empire. And I will order the army to stand by and fight until the last moment, as long as there are imperial reinforcements. South China is bound to perish. "Cliff has a strong faith in his country, and of course, this is also for the generals who are doing it. After all, the servant army still needs these Malays to lead.

"Mr. Cliff, I don't think it's a problem for our troops, all of which are armed with British weapons, to block the attack of the South China* team." Said a native general.

"Resist to the end, we, the sons of Muhammad, have never been afraid of war."

"Yes. Never give in. ”

In fact, the vast majority of the generals here were supported by the British. Obeying only the management of the British, as for the Sultan, it has been largely reduced to a decoration.

The atmosphere was warm and morale was good, but Cliff was not in the mood to relax, and hurried back to his station and telegraphed Governor Atjan, who was far away in Singapore.

After Singapore became a colony, it has always been the residence of the Governor of Nanyang, governing the affairs of more than a dozen countries in Nanyang, and Governor Atyan is the eleventh Governor of Nanyang.

After receiving a telegram from Cliff, the Brunei garrison, Atyan was also shocked, South China actually took the initiative to provoke a war, and has already defeated Sabah and Sarawak, occupied most of the land of Borneo, and is now besieging the Sultan of Brunei, he really can't believe that the Chinese, who have never taken the initiative, the small country that has just been founded, dare to take the initiative to start a war.

You know, just a few months ago, Britain also sent a mission to personally warn Guo Yu, and the other party also promised not to provoke a war in Asia, and the empire also sent a telegram to inform this matter, but I didn't expect that in the past few months, Nanhua actually started again.

No, we must inform the country of what is happening in Nanyang as soon as possible, if it is only the matter of Borneo, then it is okay to say, but if Nanhua is still not satisfied with the current territory and continues to expand outward to wage war, with the current deployment of British forces in Nanyang, it will not be able to resist the pace of Nanhua's attack.

He first sent a telegram to Cliff, the content of which was very simple, hold on, must not compromise, must withstand the attack of South China, and wait for support.

In fact, even Atjan himself doesn't know if Britain can send reinforcements, after all, the current form of the empire is also very bad, Europe is their home, where the war is in full swing, if it is only because of some colonial affairs, and the security of the empire is affected, it is the cabinet and His Majesty George V will never allow.

When the telegram reached Britain, the Cabinet was shaken, and an emergency Cabinet meeting was held overnight to discuss the settlement of the matter in South Yang Borneo, and a dozen cabinet members consulted for a whole night, and the final result was that the Empire was now incapable of caring about Asian affairs, and could only let it go.

Britain and France were on the Western Front, under fierce attack from Germany, and were now on the defensive, not daring to relax at all.

Besides, a colony is a colony, Britain has 27 colonial countries in the world, with a total area of about 33 million square kilometers, and is the largest colonial lord in the world at that time, a small Borneo, they can still afford to lose it, as for the rise of South China, they now have no spare energy to manage.

On the same day, Britain sent a telegram to Nanhua, warning Nanhua in stern terms that if it did not stop its invasion of the British Protectorate, Britain would directly send troops to safeguard British interests and take military measures against Nanhua. (To be continued)
