Ambuna Island was the last resting point on the southbound fleet's voyage, and after leaving here, the fleet would march east, south, and southwest in three directions. The eastward fleet will complete a round-the-island voyage along the coastline of Borneo Island, passing through major islands in the South China Sea, such as Palawan, Sulawesi, Sunda Islands and Java, to investigate local customs and customs, and find coastal harbors suitable for colonial development, and finally return to the starting point of Ambuna Island, and then turn back to the north.

The fleet headed south to the islands of Bangka-Belitung between Sumatra and Borneo, where the Hae Han had already established two tin mines and smelting workshops and had a small number of troops. However, in order to avoid misunderstanding among the Dutch in the city of Batavia, more than 300 nautical miles away, Haihan has not really started to build a large number of buildings in the local area, and even the work of introducing immigrants and building settlements is slowly and quietly advancing.

The fleet headed southwest to the Sing Tao area at the eastern end of the Strait of Malacca, where the Haihan navy arrived at the end of 1633 and made Sing Tao a sphere of influence for the Haihan. After that, it increased its troops several times, and built military bases and military docks in the local area to stabilize the deterrent power of Haihan in the local area.

The destination of Tan Juren's trip was Star Island, and all the 800 immigrants he led were assigned to settle in the area. As the first immigrants to be sent from Hainan Island to the region after the Haihan occupied the region, they would take on the task of establishing settlements, cultivating farmland, and achieving self-sufficiency. After this group of people successfully settles down, Haihan will also send the second and third batches of immigrants to the area one after another, with the goal of growing the local resident population to 10,000 within three years.

Before his departure, he participated in the special preparatory meetings held by the Executive Committee for this purpose, and he already had a good understanding of the special significance of Sing Tao in Haihan's development strategy.

Sing Tao is currently the westernmost overseas enclave in the Haihan control area, and the Haihan has only one purpose in setting up a stronghold here, which is to control the shipping lanes of the Strait of Malacca. There are only two main shipping lanes from the Indian Ocean into the South China Pacific Ocean, the Strait of Malacca and the Sunda Strait, the latter of which is currently controlled by the strategically located Dutch, while the situation in the Strait of Malacca is more complicated, with the involvement of several small indigenous states and the involvement of Western maritime powers such as Portugal and the Netherlands. However, Haihan did not ignore the existence of this strategic place, and after its rise, it was listed as one of the targets that must be controlled.

Under the existing transportation conditions and the level of science and technology, the expansion of the territory is also limited, and this will basically be the western gate of the Haihan Kingdom for a long time in the future. Further west, with the existing population and transportation support capacity of the Haihan, it will be difficult to ensure the racial composition of the new colonies farther away, and it may not be possible to maintain a stable Han Chinese regime in the local area. And this kind of risk that will affect the stability of the rule is not currently expected to be borne by the Haihan Executive Committee. Rather than continuing to expand to the West, where racial and cultural differences are very obvious, it is of course more worthy of efforts to cultivate the Ming Dynasty, Annam, Korea, Dongying and other countries in the Far East, after all, these countries have a common culture with the Haihan Dynasty, whether it is to obtain immigrants from their own countries, or to open up local trade markets, it is obviously much easier than going west.

"Xingdao is the southwestern border town of our Haihan Kingdom!"

Tan Juren still remembers very clearly that at the practice meeting before departure, Tao Donglai showed him the strategic significance of Xingdao so categorically. And the importance of Sing Tao to the country means that the appointment he received from Tan Juren is also equally important, and he naturally understands Tao Donglai's implication.

The determination of the table has been expressed before the departure of Sanya, and the next stage is to put these statements into practice. The more than 300-nautical-mile voyage from Ambuna Port to Sing Tao is also the last sea leg of this southbound journey. Tan Juren has slowly recovered his thoughts about traveling all the way, and he will spend the next period of time on Star Island, and it is time to study how to carry out his work.
