September 20, 1894, 11:01 a.m.

At present, one of the largest warships on the entire planet, with the most fierce firepower and the strongest protection, is the pride of the Great Yin Empire: the former dreadnought-class battleship 'Sovereign'.

9 minutes after being hit headlong by a bomber piloted by Xiaomei, it detonated the power compartment and exploded in two on the spot.

The two hulls of the ship have completely disappeared into the sea, completely sinking into the waters of the Strait of Malacca, and disappearing in the eyes of everyone.

Even in this section, it is the shallowest position in the Straits of Malacca.

The depth of the sea is only about 25 to 27 meters, which is enough to completely submerge them.

One of the crew members of the Sovereign failed to survive such a violent explosion and the astonishing speed of sinking.

And nine minutes ago, when the 'Sovereign' was blown in two.

A naval battle here in the Strait of Malacca has come to an end.

What, there are 7 Yin Army ships, 5 French Army, a total of 12 Yin Law warships with white flags, and those Yin Law officers and soldiers on it are basically thrown clean after realizing that the bombs carried by the plane in the sky are basically thrown clean.

Thinking that the opportunity had come, the intention to do it again rose in my heart.

They began to fire and pressurize the boilers, secretly reloading the cannons with shells, and prepared that once they had enough boiler pressure, they would immediately run away and fire at the four warships of the Xuange battalion.

And then? When they saw a plane swooping down, the 14,000-ton 'Sovereign' was blown in two.

At that time, a cool air rushed straight to the Tianling Gai, and he almost didn't directly scare the pee.

After all, it seemed to them that there were still 42 bombers hovering in the sky at the moment.

I don't know that a plane simply collides with them, but the power is not much in fact, where do they dare to have the slightest move to continue to resist.

In the following time, facing the flag on the battleship of the Xuange battalion, let the fire go out, and let the people be saved.

The whole process is even more well-behaved than the kindergarten children.

And after seeing such a scene, the people watching the battle on both sides of the strait also reacted one after another; Because the result was completely different from what was originally expected, there were some different reactions.

Among them, those who fell to their knees on the ground are still on their knees, and from time to time a head full of respect is bowed down.

However, the objects of kneeling and kowtowing have changed from the previous large-scale, moving mountains-like Yin Fa fleet to those bombers circling in the sky.

At the same time, these natives also secretly made up their minds in their hearts: in the future, they will fight the idea of those white-skinned men, steal and rob the white men, and never provoke those Chinese.

Because with the limited brain capacity of these natives, they can now react a little:

After a hundred or two hundred years of silence and decline, from today's World War I, the flower growers began to rise again; It will continue to be the hegemon of the Far East, as it has been for thousands of years.

A group of white-skinned men who were arrogant and proud like big roosters before, how proud they were before, and how lost they are now.

Such an unusually serious psychology of loss is especially strong in the Dutch Javanese Governor's Palace, Governor Tonier.

To know! He didn't stay in Batavia, thousands of miles away, but arrived a few days in advance.

Doesn't you just want to take a good look at the Yin Law Expeditionary Fleet, that powerful and majestic posture, so as to strengthen your confidence in the Xuange Battalion?

When the two fleets were about to start, he was full of expectations.

Holding the binoculars, he planned to see clearly how the Xuange Battalion, the enemy of the Dutch people, was completely destroyed by the Yin Law Expeditionary Fleet.

The result? From the beginning to the end, such a naval battle lasted only an hour and a half.

If it had been replaced before, the naval battle in which the two sides had been bombarded with naval guns from afar, would have taken less than half of the time.

However, in such a short period of time, the Yin Law Expeditionary Fleet, which should be invincible in the Far East in his eyes, actually suffered a huge fiasco.

Facing the Xuange Battalion, which has secretly held back such terrifying strength for more than a year.

Do they have any hope of continuing to occupy the colony of Java in the future?

Without the constant blood transfusion of the Java colony, they are afraid that they will soon be completely reduced to a third-rate small country in Europa, right?

At the thought of these questions, Governor Tonier's heart was filled with endless sadness.

But after he thought of something, he didn't care about what could happen afterward.

Turning around, he grabbed a subordinate next to him who was also pale and full of disbelief, and let out a crazy roar from his mouth:

"Quick, go and inform Madir in Surabaya City, and tell that idiot to stop all his plans at once; For Brother Su's sake, don't do anything, don't tear your face with the Chinese.

Otherwise, all of us will die at the hands of this fool. ”

After being sprayed all over the face by the Governor, this subordinate, who is considered Tonier's confidant and knows a lot of secrets, is the one who reacts to what the other party is referring to.

Immediately, he was also frightened, and galloped towards the war horse on the side.

After hurriedly climbing on the war horse, he slapped the horse's butt vigorously without a single call, and disappeared in front of Tonier's eyes like a horse.

It's just that Tonier actually knows in his heart that it may be too late......

******

At the same time, in the city of Surabaya.

The Dutch Lan people in East Java are the Governor of Madil, who has not been in office for a few months, and he is surrounded by a large number of soldiers with loaded guns and ammunition, and walks the streets of Surabaya City.

Even at this time, Surabaya City already looks like a hellish scene.

The gates of the buildings on the side of the road are basically wide open, and judging from the various debris scattered, it is obvious that they have just been looted.

Even some of the buildings are currently on fire.

The road was littered with corpses, and there were pools of blood, so much so that Madir left a trail of bloody footprints on his boots as he walked all the way.

Coupled with the constant shouts of killing and gunfire that came to the ears, it showed that Surabaya City was in a big chaos.

However, in the face of the above circumstances, the face of Governor Madir, who is currently nominally the supreme ruler of Surabaya City, is indescribably high-spirited.

Such a strange performance, everything had to be told more than two hours ago.

When he received an exact telegram, confirming that the fleet of the Xuange Battalion was actually quite strong, and it was about to go to war with the invincible Yin Law Expeditionary Fleet.

And after being completely eliminated without any suspense, he began to carry out a plan of action that had been planned for a long time with the unanimous consent of the Dutch domestic parliament:

In the previous time, the dispatch was carried out by various means and many times in secret.

The regular army soldiers, who had been in hiding, numbered four thousand two hundred.

Together with the local military, police, and armed expatriates of almost 3,800 people, they will launch an all-out attack on the Xuange camp in Surabaya City.

In addition, more than 20,000 natives who were captured during the riots more than a year ago and are still not tired or sick to death were mobilized to act together.

The goal is to kill all the people in the Xuange camp and seize the factories and technologies they have built for more than a year.

also to kill the Chinese in Surabaya City, those who are close to the Xuange camp; Let these ant-like Chinese know who is the supreme owner of this land.

By the way, rob them of their coveted wealth as their own trophies.

After all, in the past year or so, whether it was the officials of these colonies, or the official mansion in the Netherlands.

Because of the scruples of the Xuange camp, there is no way to plunder the one he wants in the colony as he did in the past.

So much so that the finances of the Dutch government, their private little coffers, everything is tight.

But everything is over, thanks to the expeditionary fleet of Yin Fa, which is about to wipe out the fleet that is the most headache for them in the hands of the Xuange battalion.

The remaining people in the Xuange Battalion are indeed very strong on land.

But with such an army, almost 8,000 men, it will completely overwhelm these ridiculous 'knights of the East' with the dense bullets and shells in their hands.

Besides, Governor Madir is not stupid at all.

In order to reduce the casualties on his own side, he arranged for the natives to attack first.

After a few worthless promises, and the provision of some old-fashioned firearms, these natives don't have many brains in their brains and have limited IQs.

Immediately, they were killed from the mines and plantations where they were imprisoned, and they cheered towards Surabaya City.

I completely forgot how they were taught a hard lesson at the hands of the Xuange camp more than a year ago, and how many people were hanged from the trees and street lamps on the side of the road.

Then, these natives with a handful of old-fashioned rifles and a large number of cold weapons.

was led by the Xuange battalion with Chinese and killed and wounded with a new rifle.

Therefore, the blood that is now trampled on the boots of Madil is the result of many natives who have been killed; Among the corpses all over the ground, there was no corpse on the Chinese side at all.

But what does it matter?

Relying on the death of a large number of natives, the people of the Xuange camp continued to retreat with a large number of Chinese descendants, and now they have been compressed in an area to the west of the city.

In the words of the Chinese, how do you say it?

Stubborn resistance, yes, that's it.

Now is the time for his great Governor of Madir, the hero of the Dutch people, to lead the army and completely break down their fortifications and settle all these things once and for all.

As he walked, he came to the edge of the western part of the city.

At this time, a Dutch colonel hurriedly greeted him, and reported a series of updates on the situation:

"Dear Governor, according to our latest statistics, there are currently about 50,000 Chinese men and women hiding in factories in this part of the city.

They improvised fortifications at some points.

They must have 12,300 armed men, armed with the latest rifles of the German batons, so their firepower is quite good.

The natives, driven by us, had attacked twice in a row, and the casualties were great, but they could not penetrate at all. ”

After hearing this, Governor Madir couldn't help but exclaim:

"It's really unimaginable, it's only been more than a year, in addition to secretly developing a powerful fleet, the Xuange battalion has also developed more than a thousand armed personnel, and its strength has swelled too fast."

However, in the tone of this goods, there is nothing too embarrassing except for exclamation.

Indeed, everything in front of them is not a problem for them.

Can't get in? But they had enough cannons to blow up the ridiculous fortifications with their cannons alone.

Then, the Dutch warriors, who have an absolute superiority in strength, will rush in and will completely destroy them.

So, after nodding slightly to the colonel, Madil confidently issued a series of orders:

"The artillery was immediately deployed, and the infantry drove the natives to continue the attack, not caring about the casualties of these monkeys; When the artillery is ready, blow up those fortifications for me immediately.

Then, rush in and kill every rebel for me. ”

On the orders of the governor of Madir, the horlands army went into action.

While the artillerymen, with a total of twelve guns, spread out and set up positions in an open field on the left, the 1,500-strong regular troops, armed with rifles, slowly approached the fortifications.

A large number of natives, forced by their bayonets, attacked again.

Xu thought of the benefits that could be obtained from it after opening the defense, and everyone's faces were so relaxed and beautiful.

Only Governor Madir understood one thing: the scene was somewhat familiar.

The riot more than a year ago seemed to be such a scene of Chinese people being surrounded; Then it won't be the same as last time, and something will happen.

"Of course not, under my Madil's plan, there will be absolutely no surprises."

Shaking his head vigorously, the white man told himself......

Without the slightest surprise, after the natives rushed up to the fortifications, under the heavy blow of rifle bullets, hundreds of casualties soon appeared.

Then these guys lay on the ground and didn't dare to move.

However, Madir was not worried at all, because in his line of sight, the artillery unit in the open space on the left side was about to start firing.

But at this moment, a high-ranking attendant of the Governor's Palace, riding a war horse, galloped and delivered a telegram to him.

It was only after glancing at the contents of the message that Madir was spinning in the world.

After almost not seeing a black in front of him, he fainted directly on the spot.

Because the telegram he received was sent urgently by Governor Tonier, and there was news that the invincible Yin French fleet had been wiped out in the Battle of the Strait of Malacca.

I didn't have time to think clearly, why it wasn't April Fool's Day today, but I heard such outrageous news.

After reacting and figuring out the joints, Madil shouted at the people around him:

"Damn, immediately order the artillery and soldiers to stop the attack.

Wrong! It should be to open fire on those natives immediately, and then go to tell the gentlemen of the Xuange camp that we are here to help them eliminate these natives thugs, without the slightest malice, long live the friendship between Xuanhe and the earth.

That's right, that's it, remember to make it clear to them. ”

By this time, however, it seemed too late for Madil to respond.

Suddenly, a few screams sounded in the air, and they flew towards this side; When they fell, it turned out to be three shells, which fell only 100 meters away from the artillery position, and exploded three large fires on the spot.

Without waiting for Madir to figure out where these shells came from.

Ten seconds later, another scream sounded in the air, but the number suddenly increased, at least a dozen rounds.

What's worse is that the accuracy of these shells is higher.

Half of it fell into the artillery position of the Dutch people, and in an instant, two artillery pieces were overturned, and more than two dozen artillery pieces were put down.

At such a time, even if Madil was sluggish, he knew that this was an ambush by the Xuange camp, and their actions were a joke from beginning to end.

The problem is known, and it's too late to do anything.

When the explosion of the shells did not subside, there was a loud shout of killing from the position behind him.

In the midst of these shouts, a large number of Chinese soldiers wearing straight canvas military uniforms rushed out in a strange queue of three people.

The rifle in his hand opened fire continuously, and at once it knocked over the Dutch military police and armed expatriates who were on standby in the rear.

Under the sudden attack, these expatriates and the military and police did not immediately rout, but sought nearby cover and launched a counterattack on the spot.

However, some Chinese soldiers immediately fell half-kneeling on the ground.

A thick, short tube was placed on the thigh that was bent; I didn't see how to operate, and the small melon-like objects flew over a distance of hundreds of meters and landed next to the personnel who were firing.

When the little melon exploded, it instantly blew up several people around.

After twenty or thirty small melon bombs were dropped in front and back, not even a minute had passed, but the armed expatriates in the rear had already been defeated.

With such an astonishing change, Governor Madir, who is usually awesome and coaxing, and who speaks more than anyone else, is directly confused.

Fortunately, at this time, the colonel next to Madil took his place and issued some orders that should be correct:

"The 3rd Battalion of Grenadier immediately organized a defensive line and was sure to block them.

All the rest of me rushed towards the factories, and with enough Chinese hostages in hand, we might survive. ”

After saying that, without even looking at Madil, he mounted his horse and rushed forward with a few guards.

It was only when he saw the soldiers rushing forward that the scene of crossfire slaughter was formed by the dozens of Makqin heavy machine guns that were suddenly exposed after the factory fortifications.

The Dutch colonel's heart was also filled with deep despair......
