Davao Bay is a harbor in southern Mindanao, with just over 50 kilometers at the entrance. The long and narrow bay makes the sea calm and suitable for fishing. Many of the people of the Buayan Sultanate depend on fishing for their livelihoods.

However, the sudden intrusion of the fleet disturbed the peaceful life of the Moros. The 12 huge warships in the lead rampaged in the harbor, and many Moro fishing boats were directly overturned, and the Moro fishermen who fell into the water angrily shouted at the soldiers on the battleship. But it was the rifle bullets that responded to them. But when the Moro's blood stained the bay, the remaining Moro fishermen fled in panic!

Long Yufei stood on the deck of the cruiser 'Xinhua', watching all this expressionlessly. Although this seems a bit cruel to the Moro people, in this era, the fate of the weak people is meant to be like this. And if a nation wants to rise, it can only step on the corpses of other peoples! If the Chinese want to rise, the indigenous peoples of Nanyang are destined to be full of corpses!

Luo Sangu stood next to Long Yufei, without any pity in her eyes. After Long Yufei's long teaching, in her opinion, there was no difference between these Moro people and ants. Besides, these Moros aren't good people either. The Chinese living in the Nanyang area were also bullied by these Moro people. Killing these Moros now can be regarded as avenging the dead Chinese!

On the morning of March 4, the huge fleet of the new Chinese kingdom entered Davao Bay and headed straight for Davao, the capital of the Buayan Sultanate. Davao is the largest city in the Buayan Sultanate, and more than half of the country's inhabitants live around it. This city on the seashore is exactly within the range of the naval guns of the Xinhua Navy!

Although Davao was the capital of the Buayan Sultanate, it had no walls and looked like an ordinary town. The best houses in Davao are the Sultan's palace and mosque. Although the Buayan Sultanate is a small country, in terms of enjoyment, the Sultan of the Buayan Sultanate is obviously much more ambitious than Long Yufei, the king. The size of the palace is at least ten times the size of Long Yufei's palace, and the buildings of the palace are all magnificent, with a lot of gold and precious stones as decoration. In comparison, Long Yufei's palace is indeed no different from ordinary houses!

Sultan Gamar of the Buayan Sultanate was a middle-aged man in his forties who had indulged in extravagance since he succeeded his father as Sultan of the Buayan Sultanate ten years earlier. As for state affairs, they were all handled by the people below. Before the rise of the Xinhua Kingdom, the enemies of the Buayan Sultanate were mainly indigenous people living in the forest. Although the population of the indigenous people was much larger than that of the Buayan Sultanate, the indigenous people were completely scattered and could not compete with the Buayan Sultanate. This, coupled with the fact that the Buayan Sultanate had no ambition for the barren forests, allowed the two sides to coexist peacefully.

The rise of Xinhua has completely changed the pattern of power in Mindanao. It took just over a year for the Xinhua Kingdom to destroy the indigenous people of Mindanao, which made the Moro people even more terrified. However, the Moros thought that there were enough vast forests for the Chinese to reach the other side of the island to attack them. Therefore, the Buayan Sultanate did not have a clear understanding of the threat posed by the Xinhua State. The army of the Buayan Sultanate was also unprepared, which directly led to the rapid destruction of the Buayan Sultanate after being attacked by the main force of the army and navy of the Xinhua State!

A large number of fishing boats fled back to the port of Davao, and the fishermen reported the sudden appearance of the fleet to the soldiers guarding the port. The officers guarding the port did not dare to slack off, and immediately rushed to the palace to report to the Sultan, and this quickly plunged the whole of Davao into a panic!

"Your Majesty! A large number of Chinese warships appeared in the bay! According to the fishermen who escaped, there were dozens of Chinese warships, and they would soon arrive in Davao! An officer said to Sultan Gamal.

Sultan Gamal, who was having fun, was shocked, he never thought that the war would come so quickly that he was not prepared for anything at all!

"Allah! Are those damned Chinese going to war with us? Sultan Gamar said with a look of horror.

"Your Majesty! We are already at war with the Chinese! Now that the Chinese have called, we should gather our troops and fight them immediately! Allah will bless us for destroying the damned Chinese! A minister reminded.

"Yes, yes! Order your troops to assemble and prepare to meet the Chinese! Sultan Gammel hurriedly said.

On the orders of Sultan Gamal, the troops of the Buayan Sultanate began to assemble. It's just that their movements are slow, and even deserters appear. The news that the army of the Xinhua Kingdom exterminated hundreds of thousands of natives, although it was blocked by the high-level of the Buayan Sultanate, the people below still knew some sporadic news.

The Buayan Sultanate had only an army of more than 10,000 men, and 3,000 of these troops were scattered in the forests to the north to fight against the army of the new country. The rest are concentrated in Davao. Immediately after Sultan Gamar's order was given, the generals of the Buayan Sultanate ordered their troops to go to the seashore to prepare for the new army. It's just that if you want to rely on these armies armed with broadswords and spears to resist the strong ships and cannons of the army and navy of the Xinhua Kingdom, no matter how you look at it, it looks like they are going to die! As for Davao's coastal defense, it is almost a blank slate. Several of the batteries on the docks are products of decades ago, and the cannons on the batteries are also rusty, and I don't know if the tunnels can still fire shells. Perhaps, the shell exploded before it was fired!

The Moro were a little taller than the natives in appearance, and their complexion was not as dark as that of the natives. This is presumably because their ancestors were of Arab ancestry.

While the troops of the Buayan Sultanate were gathering on the beach, the First Fleet of the Xinhua Navy had already escorted the convoy loaded with the First Brigade of the Army to less than five kilometers from the coast!

"Your Majesty! Those Moro people know that we are here, and they are already preparing for war! Niu Meng, the commander of the First Brigade, said.

"Hmmm! Still, wouldn't it be better to have these Moros gather and then be the target of our shelling? Long Yufei said with a smile.

"Ha Lu Ha! That's right! We've got twelve ships, enough to smash all these Moros to pieces! Niu Meng said with a smile.

"Yuhua, it's up to you next!" Long Yufei said.

"Your Majesty, we will let these Moro people know that we are powerful!" Luo Yuhua replied, then turned around and left, giving orders to the battleships of the fleet!

The 12 'Shark-class' cruisers accelerated towards the coast until they were only a little more than a thousand meters from the coast before stopping. The 12 battleships lined up, crossed the hull, and aimed their sides at the shore. The naval guns on the battleship are already aimed at the troops of the Buayan Sultanate on the beach!

"Fire!" At 11 a.m., Luo Sangu gave the order to open fire.

"Boom! Rumble! "The four 105-mm naval guns on the cruiser 'Xinhua' and the four 75-mm naval guns on the side opened fire one after another!

In the midst of the earth-shattering noise, one after another shells roared towards the shore under the action of kinetic energy. After the cruiser 'Xinhua' opened fire, eleven other warships also opened fire. For a time, the sea was filled with gunsmoke and the sound of cannons rumbled!

At the moment when the warships of the Xinhua Navy opened fire, the troops of the Buayan Sultanate on the beach immediately became a mess, and the soldiers were scattered everywhere like flies without heads. Many people are desperately running towards the city!

"Boom! Rumble! "The cannonballs exploded in the crowd, and the waves of air tossed the poor soldiers high. Shrapnel flew sideways, reaping life wantonly. After the shells explode, they left craters on the beach!

"Allah willing! How could the artillery fire of those Chinese be so fierce? An officer from the Buayan Sultanate said in horror. The next moment, a shell exploded next to him, tearing his entire body to pieces and scattering shredded flesh all over the ground!

By the time the twelve warships of the First Fleet of the Xinhua Navy began to pour shells on the troops of the Buayan Sultanate on the beach, the outcome of the war was already decided! How is the army of the Buayan Sultanate, which is still dominated by cold weapons, the opponent of the Xinhua army, which is equipped with advanced artillery and muskets!

Countless soldiers of the Buayan Sultanate ran madly towards the city of Davao, as if the city could bring them shelter. The beach was littered with weapons and severed limbs. The soldiers of the Buayan Sultanate who were wounded by the explosion were left unpaid and left to wail on the beach!

"Are these Moros so vulnerable?" Looking at the troops of the Buayan Sultanate who were frantically fleeing for their lives, Long Yufei was really speechless!

"Your Majesty! That's a good thing! Isn't it time for our Army to come on next? Let's go ashore and teach those Molo a hard lesson! Niu Meng said with a bang.

After seeing Long Yufei nodding, Niu Meng immediately left the cruiser 'Xinhua' in a small boat and went to the merchant ships that were transporting the soldiers of the First Brigade to prepare for the landing operation!

"Artillery fire extends, fire on Davao City!" Long Yufei ordered!

Under Long Yufei's order, the artillery fire of the Xinhua Navy began to extend to Davao City. Shells fell into the city, houses were blown into ruins in the explosion, whether it was a magnificent palace, a mosque, or an ordinary house, all of them were destroyed in the shelling of the Xinhua army! In the face of the powerful Xinhua Army, the Buayan Sultanate seemed so weak! The fate of this country is already sealed, and they will become the first stepping stone to the rise of Xinhua State!
