More and more Chinese privateers appeared in the strait, and Yan zhòng affected the passage of the Strait of Malacca, and even more affected the operation of the Dutch Governor's Palace of Malacca. With most of the Tessian merchant ships diverting through the Sunda Strait and the Karimata Strait into the South China Sea, the Dutch suddenly realized that their investment in Malacca was insolvent.

However, the Dutch were not willing to hand over such a crucial point to the Chinese, so they gritted their teeth and continued to rely on the southern part of the Malay Peninsula, and repeatedly contacted the local counterparts in an attempt to create trouble for the Chinese side. Thus, the First Malay War from October of the 6th year of Wucheng to September of the 7th year of Wucheng was introduced.

After the war, the four Duantu states of Johor, Punheng, and Dingjianu were forced to surrender and cede more than 1,000 li (note: about 7,000 square kilometers) of land. In this way, the Lingyamen Metropolitan Protectorate established nearly 20 inspection divisions in Johor Bahru, Kuantan, and Longping directly under it, and placed nearly 3,000 Japanese Shence troops.

Since there was no clear evidence of the Dutch's instigation during the war, the Huaxia side had to continue to limit the infiltration of Jinzhou (Sumatra), but in order to express its dissatisfaction, the Huaxia Central Governor ordered the Lingyamen Metropolitan Protectorate to take control of the Riau Islands and the Linga Islands successively, and forced the Sultan of Palembang to cede half of Bangka Island to establish the Penang Town Guard. In addition, on the grounds that the Lingyamen Protectorate was too far away from Borneo and inconvenient to manage, the Huaxia Central Center re-established the Xibo Nidu Protectorate and at the same time built new Borneo colonization units such as the Nanbo Nidu Protectorate, the Southwest Boni Protectorate and the Southeast Boni Protectorate.

In the face of the aggressive offensive posture of the Chinese, the Dutch reached a peace agreement with the Portuguese, recognizing the Portuguese presence in Timor Island and the East Nusa Tenggara archipelago, and agreeing to regard the Aceh and Medan states of Aceh and Medan in North Sumatra adjacent to Ah Zhen as the Portuguese sphere of influence, so as to free up their hands to strengthen their presence in South Sumatra, such as Palembang, Zhan Pei, and Riau, in order to resist the Chinese invasion.

But the gourd was pressed and the scoop was lifted, and the Dutch had just appeased the Portuguese who were suffering from the same disease, and the Inguilli and the French had gone wrong again. In fact, the English merchants, who had only retained the merchant house in Bengkulu, wanted to replace the Dutch rule in the Spice Islands, so they had already contacted the French merchants, who had the same wolf ambitions, to prepare to replace them.

It's just that from the hegemony of the big 6 in Europe to the struggle for overseas colonies, Britain and France have always been dirty, and it is okay to join forces behind the scenes, but it is difficult to achieve a real joint use of troops. Therefore, although the Chinese side has already hinted at it, it still takes a lot of effort for the respective principals to really join forces with Britain and France.

But in any case, the coalition was eventually formed. On the ninth day of the eighth month of the seventh year of Wucheng, a fleet consisting of six Anguiglian armed merchant ships, four French armed merchant ships, one Danish armed merchant ship and one Hanseatic armed merchant ship appeared in Bengkulu. Although these were just armed merchant ships, the mighty fleet still shook the entire Jinzhou.

The news soon spread, and while the coalition forces were still in Bengkulu for repairs and supplies, the Dutch gathered eleven warships to meet them, the largest of which had a load of more than 100 tons and more than 40 cannons. But the Dutch were still not at ease, and specially invited the Portuguese from Timor to help in the war.

Perhaps because of the lack of words, the Portuguese also sent two warships to help in the battle, so that the Dutch had the advantage in the number of ships and the overall strength, and in addition to waiting for work, they defeated the allied forces in one fell swoop in the Battle of Java on September 17, the 7th year of Wucheng, by sinking one ship and severely damaging three.

After the victory, the Dutch were preparing to pursue, but they did not expect that the Huaxia naval division suddenly entered the war zone, cutting off the two sides of the war.

Although the appearance of the Chinese naval division was only two second-class cruise ships, which was only an inconspicuous point compared to the Dutch and Portuguese warships, the Dutch could only watch the coalition forces march away because of the possibility of a large-scale intervention of the Chinese naval division.

The grass was cut and the roots were not removed, and the defeat in the naval battle did not annihilate the ambitions of Britain and France.

On 22 September, the allied forces that had retreated to the ocean west of Coconut City (Batavia) landed on the main island of Java with sailors and mercenaries on board, and a battle of Tessie 6, which was rare in the East, was triggered.

"Your Excellency, I heard that the pirates who came to attack were armed with about 3,000 men." You Xiong, who was stationed in Batavia in the name of the head of the merchant hall, talked with the commander of the Dutch garrison with a smile, as if he did not know that the conflict between the United East India Company and Huaxia had also reached the point of intensification. "I don't know if you can stop their attack."

"Three thousand, it should be an exaggeration." If it weren't for the intervention of the Huaxia Naval Division, where would the coalition forces have the opportunity to board the 6 as a whole team, so as soon as he thought of this, the commander couldn't wait to smash a punch on You Xiong's face, but he was an anonymous ambassador, and he didn't want to completely anger the Dutch on the Huaxia side who knew how to restrain their feelings. "Even if there are really so many people as there are 3,000 people, they are just a patchwork of some inferior natives, and they may not have any combat effectiveness at all."

You Xiong unceremoniously debunked: "Is that so? But how did I hear that the commander of the other side was once a retired colonel of France, well, I heard that he was still a viscount. And I also heard that France is an emerging power in Ctessy, and its 6th division is even stronger than Luzon, and it is known as the strongest army in Ctessy. ”

"The owner of the museum is very well-informed." The commander glanced at You Xiong coldly, obviously he had already judged that there was a Huaxia official behind this matter. "But pirates are not the French 6th Army, and it is a joke that a retired colonel can train them to be like European armies."

You Xiong didn't care about the other party's rather unkind tone, but just asked: "I see, then I think that His Excellency the General is already in control, so I don't know if His Excellency the General is ready to defend Coconut City?" Or are you ready to go out of the city to fight? ”

Although You Xiong is suspected of probing for military secrets, there is actually nothing to preserve secrets when the war starts, so the commander told him very clearly: "The governor and the council feel that defending the city will bring indelible damage to the city, so we will soon attack and defeat these pirates in the field." ”

"That's great." You Xiong expressed his feelings with a very Tessy exclamation, but before the Dutch general could get proud, You Xiong said again. "Then as the official envoy of Huaxia in Coconut City, can I ask to send someone to watch the battle?"

The commander wanted to say, when will you be the official envoy of the Huaxia government, but the words are still swallowed, after all, it is not beneficial for the Netherlands to lead a diplomatic conflict at this time, so he can only say casually: "Watch the battle?" Is this necessary? No, I'm not refusing you, it's with the consent of the Governor and the Council, because anything can happen on the battlefield, and it's too dangerous for you or your employees. ”

"Then take my request as a formal proposal," You Xiong did not give the other party a chance to refuse. "My court has always been very interested in how the Taixi countries fought wars, so it is impossible for the court to let me back down."

"This?" The commander understood that if he didn't agree, it wouldn't actually prevent the Chinese from appearing on the battlefield, and as long as the Chinese didn't appear in the hostile camp obviously, there was nothing wrong with letting them see a European-style war, even if the Chinese side understood the tactics of the Dutch army and dealt with the Dutch in the next war, it would be better than the Chinese people learning about it from the allied forces. "I'll do my best??????"

On October 6, the seventh year of Wucheng, somewhere on the outskirts of Batavia, the coalition army, which had only more than 2,300 men, actually fought head-to-head with the Dutch defenders of more than 1,700 men. Although the Dutch army was not as numerous as its opponents, the origin of the coalition army was complex, and only more than 1,000 of them could be said to have a certain combat effectiveness, so in fact, the Dutch army had the advantage. It's just that this advantage is extremely fragile, and most of the Dutch army, which is made up of natives, is not much stronger than its opponents.

Towards ten o'clock, artillery fire began on both sides, but it did not last long before it was silenced by the scorching tropical sun. As a result, the formations of the two sides, which had not been torn apart by artillery fire, gradually approached, and after entering the range of the smoothbore guns, mutual trust firing began. Through the smoke of musket fire, the Dutch halberders and the allied scimitars approached each other, and the battle began.

"This is the so-called combat effectiveness of the mercenaries of the Swiss state?" Looking through the binoculars at the allied sailors who were killed by halberders and spearmen, the Fubo Army was talking to his colleagues in the Dragon Gang in a low voice. "Are they strong, or are the coalition forces too weak, what would happen if we were on top?"

"No matter how powerful the white soldiers are, there is nothing to look at." Ji Xian, who came from the Long Xiang Army, shook his head. "It's Xiyi's platoon that has some highlights." Ji Hyun said, pointing in the direction of the coalition forces. "Although it is obscured by the smoke of gunpowder, if you listen carefully, you can hear that the coalition forces are firing in full salvos, while the Dutch army is firing in columns, similar to our army's tactics. But what was the result? What does it mean that the sound of the Dutch platoon firing is getting thinner and thinner, but the sound of the Allied army is the same as it was at the beginning? ”

Lu Tongwu, who had already scheduled to be transferred back to the 6th Division from the Shence Army, frowned: "Our army has been training in the method of round shooting in rows for many years, and it is suddenly going to change, but I am afraid that the criticism from the top and bottom will not be small." ”

Chi Xian insisted: "The Qing Dynasty still has a loop shooting method of ten into nine consecutive links, and its firepower is said to be more continuous than our army, if we can't find a way to restrain it, the casualties of the Northern Expedition may not be small in the future." ”

Ji Xian added: "Now that I see the battle against Xiyi, I know that a salvo wins the platoon * shot, how can I abandon it like a piece of." ”

"Let's talk about this later, look, the outcome is about to be decided." Guo Weigang shouted. "Beautiful, this salvo is a god, now that the halberd has been dispersed, the defeat of the Dutch army has been decided, and we should leave the field early??????"

Not to mention how the junior officers of the Xia Army who watched the battle reported after they returned, the defeat of the 6th World War forced the Dutch to trap Batavia. However, the coalition forces lacked food and could not afford to besiege Batavia for a long time, and after the Chinese side made it clear that they would not participate in the internal strife between the Taixi countries, they were forced to loot the estates outside the city and retreat to Bengkulu.

The coalition was disbanded, but the foundation of Dutch rule in Sumatra, Java and the Spice Islands was shaken, and at this time, the Dutch were powerless to continue to prevent the infiltration of China into Sumatra, so a new struggle continued to be staged on a new stage??????
