Chapter 1495 Set off a big firework for the Dutch devil
As soon as it got dark, hundreds of soldiers came to Burlington Manor, led by Colonel Zahavi, who was ordered to come to search for them.
While the search was underway, a dense burst of gunfire suddenly came from the northeast.
Zahavi was shocked, the gunshots, the northeast direction, it must be the people of the Ming Empire who have been found!
"Order, immediately form a team, march in the northeast direction, and search with all your might!"
Zahavi shouted the order, and the Dutch, who were searching, quickly assembled, abandoned Burlington Manor, and chased in the northeast direction!
Zhang Chu breathed a long sigh of relief, today this Zahavi has a posture of never giving up if he does not turn over the manor, if it weren't for this burst of gunfire, I'm afraid that Burton Manor would be really dangerous......
Gunshot!
Zhang Chu's heart is tight again, needless to say, either Deng Xiong is taking the initiative to attract the attention of the Dutch army, or Deng Xiong has been exposed, with the ability of the soldiers of the special operations battalion, not long after departure, the sky is dark again, and the possibility of exposure is very small, then there is only one possibility, Deng Xiong is taking the initiative to attract Dutch troops to the northeast to investigate, now not only Berlinton Manor, but I am afraid that the Dutch troops in other places will get the news, and they will also search for the northeast, right? Heaven forbid, don't be surrounded by the Dutch army......
At noon the next day, the Doge's Palace.
George has not closed his eyes since yesterday, and after a night and a half a day, except for some traces of the Ming army found in the southeast of Batavia, there has been no news of this group of people, as if they disappeared into the sea, and they are really aggrieved to their homes, when did the Netherlands suffer such a great shame?
Syllable!
Another flask was slammed to the ground by George, the glass was gone, and now it was the teapot's turn.
"Waste, it's all a group of waste, tens of thousands of people were dispatched to search and arrest, but not even a single person was caught, and the waste arrived home!"
George growled.
"General George!"
Van der Meyde, the senator of the Governor's Mansion on the side, said in a deep voice: "Now is not the time to vent your anger, now that the Governor and Commander Soria have died, even the chief of staff of the fleet, Struy has been seriously injured, we will face the fierce attack of the main fleet of the Ming Dynasty and tens of thousands of Tianxiong troops, the big battle is coming, the general's casualties are so serious, we must respond immediately!" ”
"Nonsense!"
George roared, "Don't I know what to do?" However, now the Spaniards only have one army commander left, Baptista, and there are only more than 400 army troops under his command, although the fleet is strong, but Montellio is dead, and we have suffered heavy casualties, where do you let me find someone to go to the top? Where to find someone? ”
Cohen and Soria are dead, and now George is the highest-ranking Dutch general in the South Seas, and he deserves to occupy the command, but the next situation makes him extremely difficult, what should he do? What to do?
George was already dying.
Van der Meyde said astringently: "No one has to find someone to top, now we have no way out, at this time we must unite the hearts of the army and strengthen the control of the various departments, I suggest that Reynolds, the deputy chief of the general staff, temporarily assume the position of commander of the Dutch fleet, and at the same time take over the command of the Spanish fleet, with Marquez, chief of staff of the Spanish fleet, as the deputy commander to assist Reynolds in commanding the two fleets, strengthen the control of the fleet, and strictly prevent the attack of the Ming fleet; At the same time, the army also needs to make adjustments, and our army generals have also suffered more than 20 casualties......"
The corners of George's mouth twitched, and he said in a muffled voice: "Now it can only be like this, pass the order, please come to the Governor's Mansion to discuss matters, well, the spies of the Ming army have not been caught yet, we must strictly prevent these people from continuing to make trouble, and the order will go down, and increase the strength of two battalions to protect our two ammunition depots respectively, and the Governor's Palace will increase the vigilance force, and there will definitely be no more chaos!" ”
Even if George hates this group of people now, he can only temporarily hand it over to others to hunt down, he must focus on the upcoming Ming Empire army, the top of the Dutch and Spanish coalition forces after yesterday's baptism, directly killed and injured half, this blow to the Westerners is too great, not only a psychological blow, but also to the next command of the army to bring huge trouble, the biggest problem is that the two naval fleet commanders are dead, the two governors are dead, Without the leader-level figures, how could the two fleets and the 120,000 army forces be able to suppress it?
Batavia is now in a huge shadow and in crisis!
George summoned all the generals who could be summoned around Batavia, reappointed the generals, deployed defenses, and adjusted the strategy, but as everyone knows, when they were meeting, the special operations battalion had already started operations again.
Deng Xiong has already targeted the arsenal of the fort, the whole Batavia, deployed hundreds of coastal defense guns, one-third of which are flowering cannons, the Dutch hoarded more than tens of thousands of catties of gunpowder here for the use of the fort, with a cannonball, it takes half a catty of gunpowder to start the calculation, these pills are enough to support the battery to complete the firing of tens of thousands of shells.
Such a military stronghold, the Dutch naturally have to be heavily guarded, originally an elite infantry battalion was responsible for protection, and now because of this matter, the troops began to increase, George successively mobilized an indigenous battalion and a Dutch battalion to protect, the strength added up to thousands of people, in addition to these people, seven or eight miles away from the ammunition depot, is the fort of the Batavian military port, where there are still a large number of troops, can be supported to the ammunition depot at any time. It is almost impossible to take the entire ammunition depot by surprise.
But it is impossible to take down the entire ammunition depot, but the ammunition depot can be destroyed, Deng Xiong still has a way, after all, what the special operations battalion is best at is sneak attacks.
Deng Xiong spent a difficult night in the jungle, the danger in the tropical rainforest is much greater than that in the temperate mountain forest, poisonous snakes and beasts abound, there will be crocodiles in any river, so fierce that it is terrifying to think about it, even if the brothers have been tested and experienced for a long time, they almost landed.
At dawn, the special operations battalion ran with all its strength in the direction of the ammunition depot, and by the time they arrived at the location, it was already in the afternoon.
"Okay, if there are no mistakes in Zhang Chu's map, this is it, Zhang Zheng, take a few brothers to step outside, be careful of some of the rest of the people to fix in place, and when the time comes, we will take action! This time, let's put off a big fireworks for the Dutch! ”
