Machen Port is the base of the Chinese Empire's invasion of Java Island, Lin Fei has worked hard here for a long time, and there are many buildings here, but now, Machen Port has become a ruin, the port is full of broken transport ships and fishing boats, the port buildings have been dumped, and the shore is desolate, not at all like the people who once appeared.

Niu Dahu hurriedly ordered the troops to go ashore to reconnoitre, and from the mouth of the local fishermen, Niu Dahu learned that the French army heard that the Chinese army had begun a counteroffensive, so they retreated from Machen Port and all withdrew into Pontianak.

As for the 150,000 Chinese soldiers and civilians in the city, they were genocide and slaughtered after Ma Chen was broken by the French army, and after the French army killed them, they threw their bodies into the sea.

Niu Dahu hurriedly informed Lin Fei of the news, Lin Fei was shocked when he heard the news, and his heart was extremely distressed, Ma Chen was the base he had worked so hard to build, and it was destroyed by the French army like this!

Although Lin Fei's heart ached, he had no choice but to order the 300,000 troops to be stationed in Machen and prepare to attack Semarang.

Since Ma Chen was conquered by the French army, Lin Fei has no news of Semarang, because the submarine cable pulled from Semarang has to pass through Ma Chen first, and then from Ma Chen to Dayu City through Zhurong City and other places.

On 20 February, Lin Fei ordered the Second Army and the Third Army, with a total of 300,000 troops, to attack Semarang.

On 21 February, the troops of the two armies landed at Semarang, and at this time they were surprised to find that Semarang was still in the hands of the Chinese Empire!

Although the city is still in the hands of the Chinese Empire, the whole city has become a scorched earth, and those civilians and warriors who would rather die than give in are resisting in the ruins!

The resistance of the Chinese soldiers and civilians was extremely fierce, when they ran out of bullets, they picked up the enemy's guns and bullets, and when they ran out of food, they ate the flesh of the British and Indonesians! Eating human flesh sounds disgusting, but if you eat the flesh of those enemies, there is nothing to be disgusting.

The 300,000 Chinese Army immediately launched an attack on the British and Indonesians outside the city, and the British and Indonesians were already exhausted, how could they resist the attack of the Chinese Army, and after a little resistance, they retreated to Jakarta.

Semarang, once again back to the embrace of the Chinese Empire!

When Lin Fei saw that Semarang had been recovered, he immediately ordered his troops to move north and attack Jakarta.

The British concentrated almost all 50,000 troops in Jakarta, and at the same time recruited a large number of Indonesians in Jakarta and nearby villages, increasing the number of Jakarta's defenses to 500,000!

Lin Fei saw that the British army's defense in Jakarta was so strong, and he did not order Niu Dahu to lead the troops to attack, but instructed them to stand still and order a fleet of three warships and four submarines to blockade the port of Jakarta!

Lin Fei's move is quite fierce, Jakarta has no military factories, and it is impossible to produce weapons and ammunition on its own, and the ammunition and supplies of the British army must be transported from Singapore, and the transport ships have to come in from the port of Jakarta without exception.

The British army trapped in Jakarta encountered the same predicament as the Chinese army back then!

The Huaxia Fleet began the port blockade operation on 22 February, and only one day passed, nine large transport ships were sunk by submarines, and these large transport ships were all large ships with a displacement of about 20,000 tons; if they were hit by artillery shells, a hundred shells might not be able to sink them, but two of the submarines fired mines with a large charge were enough to sink the transport ships.

The psychological deterrent effect of submarines on the transport fleet was even greater, and the transport ships sailed on the surface of the sea, and no one knew if there was a terrible killer following them underwater, and this invisible threat completely shook the British transport fleet.

The British transport fleet is different from the Huaxia transport fleet, the Chinese transport fleet is made by the shipowners under the inspiration of patriotism, and the shipowners only charge Lin Fei a small amount of remuneration, but the British fleet is different, they are all businessmen who take profit as the highest pursuit, and every time they transport materials, they have to ask the British government for a huge amount of payment.

Now that there are submarines underwater, every transport ship is at risk of being sunk, and the British government pays according to the amount of cargo that arrives on shore, that is to say, the owner of the ship is responsible for every loss suffered by the transport ship during the voyage, and there is a risk of ship destruction without compensation, which ship owner is willing to transport supplies for the British army?

The British army in Jakarta instantly fell into a situation of isolation and helplessness, they did not expect the Chinese Empire to raise a counterattack before, so they did not store a large amount of ammunition in Jakarta at all, and the number of British troops and Indonesians soared to 500,000, so the food in the city was quickly insufficient.

The British desperately asked the Governor of Singapore for help, and the Governor of Singapore asked for help from home, but there was no way at home, even if they sent a large number of battleships to the South Seas despite the risk of the colony being seized by Germany and Russia, they could not fight against the submarines of the Chinese Empire, and they would eventually be sunk.

The Governor of Singapore had no choice but to raise the price of remuneration and buy a huge amount of commercial insurance for each transport ship that went to sea, which did stimulate many ship owners, and there were more transport ships on the sea, and some submarines could not be beaten, and many fish that slipped through the net entered the port.

However, Lin Fei quickly came up with a countermeasure, that is, to block the port with mines!

Mines have a long history, the manufacturing process is relatively simple, and mines do not need the complex power system of torpedoes, so they can make the charge larger, and one is enough to sink a large transport ship with a displacement of 20,000 tons.

Cruisers and submarines took turns, mines were laid near the port, large transport ships sank one after another, insurance companies lost all their money, and the boss of the company swept away the huge amount of money and fled back to England, in this era this boss could hardly be caught, he could easily flee to the United States, to Burma, to India, to South Africa, and live a happy life with his pounds.

Seeing that no one had compensated them for the insurance money, the owners of the transport ships went to the Governor of Singapore, and the amount of money was so large that the Governor of Singapore could not take it out, so the Governor of Singapore could only prevaricate, because the war situation was urgent, and the Governor of Singapore hoped that the merchants would continue to take risks to transport ammunition and food.

The businessmen's lungs are about to explode, and if they don't compensate us for our losses, they even want us to die! Indignant, the merchants signed a joint pledge never to transport ammunition and food for the British government again, and in this way, ammunition and food piled up in the port of Singapore, but no ship was willing to transport them out.

The time soon came on March 10, the British and Indonesians had been besieged in Jakarta for half a month, the British army had eaten all the food, and the Indonesians were the same, they were robbing the city in groups, but a few months ago, they had already robbed the city once, and now there was no food to rob.

When the time came on 15 March, the British army and the Indonesians were on the verge of collapse, and the commander-in-chief of the British army, Lieutenant General Standers, could only send an envoy to negotiate surrender with Niu Dahu, the commander of the Chinese army.

There were 50,000 British and 450,000 Indonesians in the city, and Niu Dahu did not dare to make a decision on what to do with these people, so he asked Lin Fei, who weighed it again and again, and ordered Niu Dahu to accept the surrender of the British commander, imprison all the British soldiers, and let the British government pay for ransom in the future, while the Indonesians were all transported back to the Chinese Empire.

In order to compensate for the adverse effects of the Chinese Empire, the economy of the Chinese Empire was greatly affected by the World War in the South Seas, and these Indonesians had to be treated as slaves and allowed to grow grain and mine for the Chinese Empire.

On March 20, all British troops in Jakarta surrendered, and the Chinese Army imprisoned 50,000 British troops on the spot and sent 450,000 Indonesians back to the Chinese Empire.

At this time, there was no longer a single Chinese in Jakarta, and the original 150,000 Chinese in the city were killed!

While the Second Army and the Third Army were besieging Jakarta, Lin Fei ordered the First Army to attack Pontianak, and the First Army dispatched all the elite - the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Divisions, which were the army that Lin Fei originally founded and were the big brothers of the whole army.

The First Army also dispatched 20 divisions with a total of 300,000 men, and these troops laid siege to Pontianak for a month, finally conquering Pontianak on March 25.

In the battle to recapture Pontianak, the First Army paid the price of 30,000 casualties, and when it entered Pontianak, it was found that there were not a few French inside, and it turned out that the French saw that the battle situation was not right, and had withdrawn the main force of the French army, and only the Vietnamese were left in Pontianak.

Pontianak is the city that Lin Fei has been operating for the longest time, and the number of Chinese in the city is also the largest, reaching 300,000, and all of these 300,000 Chinese have been killed.

The Chinese army killed 100,000 Vietnamese, and the other 80,000 became prisoners, Lin Fei originally wanted to treat all the Vietnamese as slaves, but later found that these Vietnamese were very arrogant and difficult to tame, so he issued an order to kill all 80,000 Vietnamese prisoners.

Lin Fei was worried that the order to kill the prisoners would cause the Vietnamese prisoners of war to revolt, so he instructed Niu Dalong, the commander of the First Army, to adopt covert methods to kill all the Vietnamese prisoners.
