Although the crossing still followed the international practice to rescue the Dutch who had fallen into the water, not many people were able to catch them. The rate of fire of modern small-caliber naval guns and the power of their shells were far beyond the comprehension of naval commanders of this era, and the Dutch paid a terrible price for such a mistake in judgment, and by the time the Dutch captain or acting captain judged that the fire in the superstructure of his warship could no longer be extinguished and ordered to abandon the ship, there were not many crew members left.

In particular, the Dutch destroyer, which was "taken care of" by the "Red Iron Fist" AK-130, had already changed its command when it was abandoned. As the largest naval gun in service in the 21st century, it also carried out double-barreled rapid fire at a rate of fire of 35 rounds per minute, which is really not a joke, and the armor made at the end of the 19th century was shot indiscriminately by the slamming of the Dutch sailors, and the Dutch sailors were really dead one by one.

The captain of a Dutch destroyer who was fished up shuddered loudly in Dutch for the undeclared war of the Great Song people, and the rough embryos on the Brandenburg-class frigate F217 who had mixed with the clone Hans Navy understood the language similar to Low German.

"When you provoked the cruiser 'Zhenyuan' of the Great Song Royal Navy yesterday, we fired a warning to you, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to describe our retaliation without a declaration of war." Said the captain of the F217 ship, Marcos.

"We've kept a safe distance from your Zhenyuan since your warning shots, and we have the right to pass through this area of water!" Dutchman quibbled.

"You told him that I also have the right to conduct military exercises in this sea area, and we will only hit them because the range of the naval guns exceeds the estimate of our engineers, are they satisfied with this explanation, who wouldn't do it!?" Lu Xiaobei said.

I have the fleet in hand, and my wife has been squeezed by you for a few days, and it will be time for me to get sucked. Hmph, for all the you did in the territory of the Lanfang Republic, it's not too much to give you a hat of massacring my Chinese expatriate, don't think about pushing the Dutch East India Company to the Dutch East India Company, you were dissolved by the Republic of Batavia in 1799, what the hell are you when we are Manchurians, just let people pull a flag with the word "VOC" and want to push this matter away, there is no door! Lu Xiaobei thought to himself.

After Task Force 38 sent the three Dutch destroyers to the bottom of the sea, the Provisional Executive Committee also told Huang Xiaolei, who was in Tianjin, to report the exchange of fire to the British Minister to China, Douglas, and suggested that John Bull should stop fooling those unreliable guys to cause trouble for the crossers.

"Since the Dutch have been hindering our operations in the South Pacific, the Royal Navy of the Great Song Empire had to fight back against the Dutch warships that came to provoke. As the country with the largest number of warships in the South Pacific, the British Empire should discourage such vexatious tricks of the Dutch, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Great Song Empire has asked me to remind Your Excellency that such adventurous tricks of the Dutch are likely to lead to the expansion of conflicts in the region. Huang Xiaolei said to Dou Nale.

"You mean we will intervene to mediate the conflict between you and the Dutch?" Dou Nale didn't know at this time, and thought that the Great Song people were going to soften.

"Mediation? We don't need this, I just want to remind you that dogs whose owners don't have a good grasp are destined to be beaten. Huang Xiaolei said.

"Miss Huang, I don't quite understand what you mean, are you here to ask for help or to threaten?" Dou Nale said.

"Help!? The 38th Task Force of the Royal Song Navy has just sunk three Dutch warships blocking the Great Song Military Observer Mission in the waters near East Wanlu, do you think we will ask the British for help in salvaging the three Dutch destroyers that sank to the bottom of the sea? "Miss Advocate has always been the leader of the Poisonous Tongue faction.

Hmph, I didn't expect the Dutch Navy to be so rotten, the cruiser built by the Germans was as fast as a turtle, can't you run away if you can't beat the difficulty? However, this incident also shows that the power of the cannonballs of the Great Song people is first-class, and the four large-caliber main guns of the "Zhenyuan" ship will achieve this result thanks to those newly equipped shells, I have to remind the Imperial Far East Fleet to pay attention, Dou Nale thought to himself.

Although the Travelers had been threatening to send another fleet from mainland China to support the Far East, many people in Britain had been skeptical of this claim of the Great Song people. As an old naval power, Britain naturally knows that the cost of maintaining a navy is a bottomless hole, and many British "experts" have pointed out that in such a barren area of Antarctica, it is simply impossible to provide the necessary resources for a huge fleet, and the BB63 is estimated to be the only warship in the Great Song Empire that can be put on the table, and the fact that the Great Song people even included the backward "Zhenyuan" built by the Germans into its establishment is an excellent proof. It was simply impossible for the Great Song people to send fleets to overseas colonies on the premise of ensuring the security of their homeland.

Obviously, Dou Nale also supports this view, he doesn't care much about the 35th Task Force in Huang Xiaolei's mouth, in his opinion, this is nothing more than a bluff trick of the Great Song Dynasty, with two or three tugboats and the ironclad cruiser built by the Germans, it is just a task force to scare people.

"Okay, this is an official diplomatic note from the Great Song Diplomacy to you, please pay attention to the complex situation in the South Pacific region, and we don't want any incidents to happen in the region." Seeing that Dou Nale looked indifferent, Huang Xiaolei put down the official paperwork and went home.

Dou Nale was dreaming of the Great Song Dynasty people being subdued, and he believed that taking the opportunity of the Tsarist Pacific Fleet to go south would definitely allow the Great Song people to make concessions on the Tibet issue, and Huang Xiaolei was ordered to inform him of the news of the arrival of the 38th Task Force in the South Pacific, just because he didn't want to fall out with John Bull, thus slowing down the progress of the development of the Crossing Masses. But it was clear that the two sides of this dialogue were not on the same channel at all, and the anti-Song Dou Nale seemed to have pushed the British Far East Fleet into a dangerous situation.

"That stubborn old British man seems to be fantasizing that we will make concessions on the Tibet issue, and we still have a lot to do to ensure that we have a smooth oil route for the future." Huang Xiaolei reported to Zhao Yi on the radio the news of the failure of the negotiations.

"What? Are you sure you told him about the sinking of three Dutch destroyers by Task Force 38? Zhao Yi was a little surprised by Dou Nale's toughness.

"Having said that, he doesn't seem to pay much attention to it, maybe the Dutch are the scum of war in his heart, maybe the 38th Task Force does not have a warship of more than 10,000 tons that cannot be built as a deterrent, or the British have not received the news of the defeat of the Dutch, who knows, anyway, this old man looks like he is ignoring." Huang Xiaolei said.

"Damn, even the 'Dreadnought II.' class destroyer only has a full load displacement of 8,000 tons, plus those small naval gun barrels, maybe the British really don't take our 38th Task Force to heart!" Hao Dajian said.

"It's hard to say, they are all masters who have not been abused by anti-ship missiles, and they may not really pay attention to those tubes with missiles." Tian Buzi also followed suit and said.
