On July 13, the army led by Niu Meng, chief of the general staff of the Xinhua Army, set out from Pontianak and marched to East Wanlu. In yesterday's battle, the losses of the Xinhua army were not large. Before the hand-to-hand engagement, the Jose coalition collapsed. It's just that when they were chasing after the last day, they encountered some recalcitrant Jose coalition officers and soldiers, and the Xinhua Army paid a certain loss. The total number of casualties is only a few dozen, which is still within an acceptable range!

Pontianak is less than 80 kilometers away from Dongwanlu, and with the marching speed of the Xinhua army, it can be reached in three days. Another troop from Yamaguchi-yo was able to reach Dongwanlu in about three days. At that time, the two armies will form a flanking attack on Dongwanlu. Even if the Jose-West coalition army still has nearly 40,000 troops in East Wanlu, under the attack of the Xinhua army, it is a dead end!

The weather in Nanyang is relatively hot, and July is the hottest time. Fortunately, most of the soldiers of the Xinhua Army grew up in Nanyang and have already adapted to the climate here. If it were someone from China, I am afraid that I would not have to fight, and I would directly lose my combat effectiveness due to heat stroke! Of course, when the Manchu Qing Dynasty was overthrown in the future, once the soldiers of the current Xinhua Army were put into the battlefield in northern China, especially in winter, the non-combat attrition would definitely be very amazing!

At noon, Niu Meng ordered the whole army to rest. The soldiers took refuge in the woods on both sides of the road to escape the vicious sun. These forests have been searched several times by the reconnaissance team of the Xinhua Army, and it is determined that there will be no threat. Meantime. While the main force was resting, it also left enough alert troops in case of a surprise attack by the enemy. Gu Yun and his men. At this time, they are very familiar with the geographical environment of West Borneo, if they are there, the Xinhua army can know where there is a clean water source and where there are more poisonous insects, snakes and ants, so as to avoid these areas and avoid causing non-combat attrition!

At this time. There was an uproar among the troops in front, and Niu Meng immediately stood up from the ground. The staff officers and guards around him also took up arms. Protected him in the middle. Now Niu Meng is the supreme commander of the Xinhua Army in West Borneo, and his safety is the top priority, and there is no room for negligence!

"Kang Rui, go see what's going on ahead!" Niu Meng's face was inconvenient. Anyway, he also broke through in the wind and rain. When I was on Flying Fish Island. He is brave, and almost always rushes to the front in every action, and the dense scars on his body all reveal his combat exploits. Now that he is in the army, he is even more relieved. Under the protection of the elite Xinhua Army, if he is still killed, then the Xinhua Army should be disbanded as soon as possible!

"Yes. Chief of staff! Staff officer Kang Rui ran to the front with a few soldiers.

Ten minutes later, Kang Rui returned. Behind him, a large group of people followed. Those people were none other than Gu Yun and his subordinates, and they were escorting two white-skinned and blue-eyed Westerners. It's just that both of them have injuries on their faces, and there is still a trace of blood on the corner of one of their mouths, which is obviously injured by Gu Yun's people.

Seeing this situation, Niu Meng was a little surprised. Because he can conclude from the appearance and walking form of those two Westerners that these two people are definitely not soldiers. However, since they are not soldiers, why did they appear here, and they were caught by Gu Yun's people. And, why hasn't Gu Yun killed them yet? With Gu Yun's hatred for the Jose coalition army, if it weren't for the Xinhua army's containment, he might have gone on a killing spree a long time ago!

"Chief of Staff! These two men were emissaries sent by the Jose coalition to negotiate. Both of them are not low, one is the Spanish governor of Luzon, Anthony. Pedro, the other is the Dutch Governor of Indonesia, Jacques Brown. Dominica! Kang Rui said to Niu Meng.

"Oh! It turned out to be them! Niu Meng nodded. When he was in Manila, Niu Meng met the Governor of Luzon, Anthony. Pedro's, however, for more than a year, Anthony. Governor Pedro has changed a lot, he is a lot thinner than before, and now he has been beaten by Gu Yun's people, and he is very embarrassed, so Niu Meng didn't recognize him! As for Jacques. The Governor of Dominica, although Niu Meng didn't know him, he knew this person. The reason is very simple, the tragedy that occurred in Batavia made the king of Xinhua Long Yufei very dissatisfied, and he complained to the military leaders of Xinhua more than once that after the Xinhua army captured Batavia, Jacques must be killed. The Governor of Dominica hanged himself to avenge the death of his compatriots in the riots. Therefore, Niu Meng looked at Jacques. The look in the Governor of Dominica's eyes was exactly like looking at another dead man. His Majesty's orders were the mission of these soldiers. Now Jacques. The Governor of Dominica actually sent it to the door himself, which is simply self-defeating!

"Protest! We want to protest! We are the emissaries of the Jose coalition army, and you can't do this to us! "After seeing the bull in the middle surrounded by everyone, Jacques. The Governor of Dominica immediately shouted loudly. Although he felt that Niu Meng's eyes looked at him a little strangely, which made him feel a little furious, he didn't think much about it. After all, this is the first time everyone has met!

"Shut him up!" Niu Meng frowned. In his eyes, Jacques. The Governor of Dominica is completely a dead man, and the dead are still shouting loudly, is it impatient to live and live?

"Smack!" A crisp slap rang out. Gu Yun was already eager to try, and when Niu Meng's order was given, he immediately rushed forward and gave it to Jacques. The Governor of Dominica slapped Jacques directly. The Governor of Dominica fell to the ground, the corners of his mouth broken, and blood flowed down the corners of his mouth.

Jacques. The Governor of Dominica was stunned, he never thought that after revealing his identity, he would be treated like this.

"Damn, I'm the noble Governor of Dutch Indonesia, you damned barbarians, how dare you do this to me! You're going to pay the price! "Jacques. The Governor of Dominica got up from the ground in embarrassment and roared like madness.

Anthony. Governor Pedro had no idea that things would suddenly turn out like this. Although he had expected it before he came, the negotiations might not go smoothly this time. But the situation will be so bad that it is still beyond his expectations!

Subsequently, Jacques. The Governor of Dominica's roar stopped abruptly, like a duck pinched by the neck. The reason is simple, at the signal of Kang Rui, a staff officer of the Xinhua Army, a soldier of the Xinhua Army pointed his rifle at Jacques. The head of the Governor of Dominica. Under the threat of death, Jacques. The Governor of Dominica was terrified. So, he wisely closed his mouth!

Although, Jacques. The Governor of Dominica was very angry and aggrieved in his heart, and he didn't know why it would become like this. But at this time, he knew that if he talked more, he was afraid that he would lose his life! To be able to become the Governor of Dutch Indonesia, Jacques. The Governor of Dominica is no fool.

See Jacques. The Governor of Dominica shut up, and Niu Meng nodded with satisfaction. Although he would love to give the order to shoot Jacques directly. The governor of Dominica, but before he got the edict of Long Yufei, the king of Xinhua, he didn't dare to be the master and shoot the high-ranking officials of the Jose coalition army!

"Your Excellency, long time no see! I didn't expect that now Your Excellency is already the Chief of the General Staff of the Xinhua Army! "Anthony. Governor Pedro said hurriedly. He was really afraid that if he dragged on any longer, something would happen again.

"Your Excellency, it's been a long time! However, you are not the same as before! I didn't expect us to meet in such a situation! Niu Meng said. At the beginning, Anthony. When Governor Pedro left Manila and returned to Spain, almost everyone assumed that he would stay in Spain until he died of old age. Unexpectedly, Anthony. Governor Pedro has once again come to the South Seas. Looking at the current situation, it is estimated that this time he will not be able to escape the tragic fate of being captured by the Xinhua Army!

"Your Excellency, I don't want to meet with the General in this situation! If I could, I would certainly like to retire in Spain. Unfortunately, I can't refuse Her Majesty's order. It's just that now it seems that the Xinhua Army is about to win again! "Anthony. Governor Pedro sighed. After leaving Manila, although he hated Xinhua to death, he never thought of coming to Nanyang again. After returning to Spain, he plans to stay in his hometown to retire after clearing his name. As a result, after the order of Queen Isabella II, he once again went to the South Seas. The last thing is that it has ended up at this point!

"Ha Lu Ha! Your Excellency the Governor laughed! Now that we can meet again, this is fate! What is Your Excellency the Governor here for? Let's just say it, and you don't have to go around in circles! Niu Meng said with a smile.

If you can, Anthony. Governor Pedro, of course, didn't want to see Niu Meng. But is there any other option?

"Your Excellency, it is like this! In this war, there is no doubt that your country is already in absolute advantage! If we continue to fight, it will only increase casualties, and it will not benefit either of us at all! Therefore, we feel that there is no need for the war to continue, and we can end the war through negotiations! This is very beneficial for both of us! "Anthony. Governor Pedro said with a smile.

"What? Are you going to surrender? Niu Meng said with a smile.

"Ugh!" Despite some embarrassment, Anthony. Governor Pedro nodded anyway.

"Well, as long as you agree to surrender unconditionally, then the war can be over!" Niu Meng said! (To be continued......)
