On October 23, the troops of the Sultanate of Brunei arrived in Sarawak and began to suppress the Bumiputera riot! Brunei army commander Mendir led his army to exterminate two indigenous tribes and kill tens of thousands of people, including many elderly people and children. Mendil's actions aroused the anger of the natives of Sarawak.

On 25 October, the Brunei army was ambushed by indigenous forces at the Sarawak River. The indigenous army, which had gathered more than 20,000 men, launched a surprise attack on the Brunei army under the cover of night. The Brunei army was very alert, or they simply did not expect the indigenous army to launch a surprise attack on them. This made the Brunei army pay a heavy price on this night!

Caught off guard, the Brunei army was defeated by the indigenous army. In the panic, the advantage of the muskets of the Brunei army could not be brought into play at all, and the spears in the hands of the indigenous army were not as good as the spears. Countless Bruneian soldiers were killed by the natives with spears. The huge casualties made the Brunei army, which was already weak-willed, collapse quickly.

In the battle that night, the indigenous army managed to wipe out most of the Bruneian army and capture the commander of the Bruneian army, Mendir. The rest of the Brunei army also fled back in disarray. Although, the Brunei army still has 10,000 regular troops. However, this is the army they used to defend the capital, Bandar Seri Begawan. More importantly. In terms of time, they don't have enough time left! At the beginning, Sultan Omar Ali Saifudin II promised Xinhua that he would suppress the natives of Sarawak within ten days. But now it seems that it is completely impossible!

"Prime Minister. We're done, the Sultanate of Brunei is completely finished! Xinhua is about to launch an attack on us! We can't resist their attacks! In the palatial palace, Sultan Omar Ali Saifudin II said with a sad face. After the news of the defeat of the front-line army, Sultan Omar Ali Saifuftin II lost his soul.

"Your Majesty, I didn't expect that that fellow Mendier would fail so quickly! He's commanding an elite army armed with muskets! Defeated by those natives! It's just incredible! Your Majesty, I beg for an order. Shoot Mendir! Prime Minister Garcia said in an airy manner. This defeat of Mendir almost buried the future of the Sultanate of Brunei!

"No need to shoot him! Mendir is dead. The damned natives, brutally killed him. And he fed his meat to the dogs! Sultan Omar Ali Saifuftin II said.

Prime Minister Garcia was silent, and he didn't know what to say. Bumiputera riots in Sarawak are getting worse, but they are not the most threatening. Xinhua is staring at the Sultanate of Brunei, this is the most fatal!

"Prime Minister. Do we have any other way now? I don't want to see the Sultanate of Brunei perish like this! Sultan Omar Ali Saifuftin II said. The British rejected the pleas of the Sultanate of Brunei for mercy. He almost lost all hope!

"Your Majesty! Now, we can only ask for the understanding of Xinhua and get them to agree to extend the time, so that we will have enough time to suppress the indigenous rebellion in Sarawak! Prime Minister Garcia said.

"But, does the Xinhua Congress agree?" Sultan Omar Ali Saifuftin II asked with some concern.

"Your Majesty, we have no other way! No matter how big the price is, we must let Xinhuaguo agree to our request, and only in this way will we be. Only then will the Sultanate of Brunei continue to exist! Otherwise, we will definitely be destroyed by the new country! Prime Minister Garcia said.

"Okay. I will immediately summon Zhang Jinhong, the consul of Xinhua Guozhu Bandar Seri Begawan! Sultan Omar Ali Saifudin II nodded. He also knew that now the Sultanate of Brunei has reached the most critical moment! Whether or not the understanding of the new Chinese state can be obtained has a direct bearing on whether or not the Sultanate of Brunei can continue to exist. Sultan Omar Ali Saifudin II does not want to be a dead king!

When Zhang Jinhong arrived at the Sultan's Palace, it was already 11 o'clock in the evening. It's October 26th now, and there are still two days to go, and it's time as agreed by both parties! The three infantry brigades of the Xinhua Army have completed their assembly and are now marching on the border. As soon as the time comes, the Xinhua army will invade the territory of the Sultanate of Brunei. The news of the defeat of the Brunei army, the Xinhua army has already known it. Therefore, they can be sure that the Sultanate of Brunei does not have the capacity to suppress the indigenous rebellion in Sarawak within the agreed time.

"Your Majesty, I don't know if Lu Dao summoned me so late, what's the matter?" Consul Zhang Jinhong said with a smile on his face.

Seeing the smile on Consul Zhang Jinhong's face, Sultan Omar Ali Saifudin II was very angry and wanted to slap him hard. However, now he has to endure it.

"Your Excellency, I'm sorry to disturb your rest! I came to you tonight because I wanted to discuss something with you! Prime Minister Garcia said quickly. He feared that Sultan Omar Ali Saifuftin II would not be able to control his anger and make relations worse.

"Oh? Your Excellency Prime Minister, is there anything going on? Although Zhang Jinhong had already guessed their intentions, he still pretended not to know anything!

"That's right, Your Excellency. The time we agreed with your country was too short for us to suppress the indigenous people of Sarawak within that time. Look, isn't it a few more days of grace for us! We promise that we will be able to suppress the indigenous people of Sarawak and protect the interests of the Chinese there! Prime Minister Garcia patted his chest and said.

"Really? Your Excellency, Prime Minister, but how have I heard that your army has been defeated in Sarawak! Even the commanders fell into the hands of the indigenous army! I doubt that your country is capable of suppressing the indigenous people of Sarawak. Now, the Chinese in Sarawak are under threat from the natives, and there is nothing you can do about it! Your Majesty the King of our country is very dissatisfied with this! Zhang Jinhong said sharply.

"Your Excellency, please think of a way to give us a few more days! We are willing to compensate Xinhua and those Chinese who have suffered losses! As long as Xinhuaguo is willing to give us grace for a while, everything is easy to say! Prime Minister Garcia said.

Seeing Prime Minister Garcia's flattering face, as well as the aggrieved face of Sultan Omar Ali Saifudin II, Consul Zhang Jinhong felt very comfortable. I think that at the beginning, when the Sultanate of Brunei was just established, the Sultanate of Brunei did not take the Xinhua Kingdom in its eyes at all. When Xinhua attacked the Sultanate of Sulu, the Sultanate of Brunei also warned Xinhua and demanded that Xinhua stop the war, otherwise they would launch an attack on Xinhua. Now, these guys can be regarded as powerful in knowing the new country! It's just that it's too late.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Prime Minister! We are very disappointed with the strength of the army of the Sultanate of Brunei! In order to protect the interests of overseas Chinese, the Xinhua Army is ready! Consul Zhang Jinhong shook his head and rejected Prime Minister Garcia's request. What are you kidding, compensation or anything like that, Xinhuaguo doesn't care at all. After the Xinhua Army destroys the Sultanate of Brunei, won't everything be Xinhua's? The Sultanate of Brunei, which has ruled northern Borneo for 500 years, has accumulated enough wealth to make anyone salivate. Last time, after the destruction of the Dutch Indonesian colonial authorities by the Xinhua Kingdom, it only obtained 40 million yuan worth of loot, although this is already a huge amount of money, but this is a hammer deal, such a fat sheep slaughtered one less ah! According to preliminary estimates, the wealth accumulated by the Sultanate of Brunei over the past few hundred years must be more than that of the colonial authorities of Dutch Indonesia. After all, although the territory controlled by the Dutch-Indonesian colonial authorities was much larger, most of the wealth they harvested each year had to be shipped back to the Netherlands. Only a small part of the Dutch-Indonesian colonial authorities remained. In addition, those mines have also been taken under military management, and the spoils of war will naturally shrink. But the Sultanate of Brunei is different! From this palatial royal palace, you can see how rich the Sultan of Brunei is!

"Your Excellency, can't you be more accommodating? We, the Sultanate of Brunei, are very sincere! As long as Xinhuaguo agrees to the grace period, we are willing to pay Xinhuaguo twenty tons of gold in compensation! In addition, the benefits of His Excellency Consul himself, we will never forget! Prime Minister Garcia said.

Sultan Omar Ali Saifudin II also nodded his head repeatedly, although twenty tons of gold made him very painful. But this is nothing to the treasures of the Sultanate of Brunei, which have accumulated for centuries. It is too good to give up such a little gold and keep the Sultanate of Brunei!

"Humph! Twenty tons of gold? This is a huge sum of money equivalent to 10 million Chinese dollars! However, the Sultanate of Brunei was able to come up with twenty tons of gold to ask Xinhua for grace! Well, they must have more wealth! Zhang Jinhong said secretly. Although Prime Minister Garcia signaled that he would give him huge benefits, Consul Zhang Jinhong was unmoved. What he cares about is career progress, not money. Although Xinhuaguo's income is not high, it is enough for him to maintain the expenses of his family. He can't bury his future because of this money!

"I am sorry, Your Majesty, Your Excellency the Prime Minister! It's not up to me to decide! The army of our country is ready! Soon we will enter the Sultanate of Brunei at the time we agreed to help you suppress the rebellion and rescue those overseas Chinese! Consul Zhang Jinhong shook his head.

"No, the Sultanate of Brunei is a sovereign state! You guys are invading! It's a despicable invasion! Sultan Omar Ali Saifudin II said angrily! (To be continued......)
