PS: The second update is here! Please subscribe, please give me monthly tickets and recommendation tickets!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Several shells exploded in the Dutch Indonesia Governor's Mansion, especially a 105mm shell, which collapsed the rockery in the garden of the Governor's Mansion. The shells fell into the Governor's Mansion, causing chaos in the Governor's Mansion.

When the shell exploded in the Governor's Mansion, the Dutch Indonesian Governor Jacques Dominic was drinking a cup of coffee. As a result, the coffee suddenly spilled. The white pants were stained with brown coffee stains, as if they were dry stool. The face of the Governor Jacques Dominic suddenly became very ugly.

"Bastard! What's going on? What happened?" Governor Jacques Dominic said furiously. The plan to massacre the Chinese was affected, which made him feel angry. Now, with this reason, he just vented it!

"Governor General! A shell has fallen into the Governor General's Mansion. Two of our houses were blown up, and several people were injured!" The guards outside the door came to report.

"What? Those damn yellow-skinned monkeys dared to hit the shells to the Governor's Mansion? Bastard, inform General Debord that once the warships of those yellow-skinned monkeys were sunk!" Governor Jacques Dominic was furious.

"Yes, Governor!" The guards ran away quickly. Who knew what the Governor Jacques and Dominic would do in anger?

As the ruling center of the Dutch colonial authorities in the Netherlands, Batavia was the main settlement of the Dutch in the South Ocean. After the Dutch controlled the Indonesian archipelago, they mainly plundered local resources and dumped products from the indigenous peoples here to plunder wealth. In order to ensure the Dutch rule here, the Netherlands not only deployed a huge army and navy in Dutch Indonesia. The ruling center of Batavia also strengthened its defense measures.

On the hillside to the left of the Batavia Port Area, the Dutch Indonesian colonial authorities built several large turrets here and deployed dozens of large-caliber heavy artillery. Basically, they were 24-pound cannons, and a few were 32-pound cannons. However, these cannons were also old bore guns with a relatively close range. In addition, the protection of the turret is basically zero. In this case, if you want to use such a turret to resist threats from the sea, you can imagine the effect. If you encounter the navy of Western countries, you may also be able to repel the enemy by relying on the advantage of the caliber of the gun. However, facing the Xinhua Navy, which can launch an attack outside their range, these old turrets can only be targets!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The Dutch army's shore defense turret opened fire. Dozens of large-caliber shells flew towards the sea. As a result, when the warships of the Xinhua Navy were still hundreds of meters away, they fell into the sea, splashing huge columns of water. The water splashed on the sea, as if it was raining rain.

"Haha! Can't the Dutch bear it? Order each ship. Adjust the shelling targets and kill the Dutch's shore defense artillery first!" On the cruiser No. 21, Lu Haipeng, commander of the Second Fleet of Xinhua Navy, issued an order.

Four 'shark-class' cruisers began to turn, and the naval guns on the ships also began to adjust the direction of the shelling. In order to ensure their own safety, all of these warships stayed three thousand meters away. Otherwise, relying solely on the weak hulls of these warships, once they were hit by large-caliber shells, they would be seriously injured even if they were not killed. The first key to the warships in the Xinhua Navy was to save themselves while killing the enemy to the greatest extent!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" More than ten minutes later, the four 'shark-class' cruisers of the Second Fleet of the New China Navy began to bombard the Dutch army's shore defense artillery. The shells roared through the air, making people frightened!

"Boom!" A 105mm shell accurately hit a Dutch army's shell. After the shell exploded, the entire turret was shrouded in thick smoke. When the smoke dissipated, the Dutch artillery on the turret was killed and injured. Two shore defense artillery were blown up. The gunpowder accumulated on the turret was also ignited, causing greater losses to the Dutch artillery.

In the artillery battle between the Dutch artillery and the Xinhua Navy, they were completely at a disadvantage. Although their shore defense guns had a larger caliber and stronger power, they also had to reach the warships of the Xinhua Navy? If they could not reach them, everything would be useless.

Less than half an hour later, Lieutenant General Debord received a report that half of the firepower of the shore defense turret was destroyed. The Dutch artillery lost hundreds of people. The shells they fired were only blowing up some fish in the sea. If this continued, it would probably take no long before their shore defense turrets would be destroyed.

"General! You can't continue like this anymore! If you continue to fight, our artillery will be completely lost! And there will be no damage to those damn yellow-skinned monkeys!" A Dutch artillery officer covered in smoke suggested.

"Stop the shelling! I'll go see the Governor!" Lieutenant General Deborer said helplessly.

After the Dutch artillery stopped counterattacks, the Xinhua Navy adjusted its targets again and placed the shelling targets in the city of Batavia. The slums in the city where the indigenous Indonesians lived, as well as the neighborhoods inhabited by the Dutch and even the Governor's Office, all became the targets of the Xinhua Navy's shelling.

"What? General Debor? Do you ask me to send someone to negotiate with the yellow monkeys? How is that possible?" Governor Jacques Dominic exclaimed. Lieutenant General Deborough told him that the coastal artillery was not an opponent of the Xinhua Navy, and other methods must be used to prevent the Xinhua Army from continuing to launch artillery.

"Governor General! The range of the Xinhua Navy's naval guns is far longer than that of our shore defense guns! We are at a great disadvantage!" Lieutenant General Deborer explained.

Governor Jacques Dominic's face was unstable. Of course he knew this problem. Now, the shells of the Xinhua Navy were still falling into Batavia City, and many houses were burning. Even his Governor's Mansion was constantly getting fired. For his own safety, he had to move his office into the basement. However, he would never be able to make him beg for mercy from Xinhua!

"General! Do you think those yellow-skinned monkeys will negotiate with us? Many Chinese died in today's riots!" said Governor Jacques Dominic.

"Governor, we also have a trump card! Don't forget that there are tens of thousands of Chinese on the dock. If they do not stop shelling Batavia, we will retaliate against those Chinese! Although our artillery range cannot reach their warships, it is enough to cover the Chinese on the dock inside!" General Debor said. Although he did not agree to point the gun at the civilians. However, the Xinhua Navy is constantly shelling Batavia, and even the Dutch settlements were bombarded, he did not care about anything else!

"Haha! General, this is a good idea! I will send someone to negotiate with those yellow-skinned monkeys. Your people will prepare the artillery and aim it at the Chinese on the dock! If the yellow-skinned monkeys do not agree to our request, then we will be polite to them!" said Governor Jacques Dominic, as if he had found the weakness of the New Chinese Army.

"Yes, Governor!" Lieutenant General Debor nodded and went down to arrange the arrangements.

More than ten minutes later, a team of Dutch people holding white flags walked onto the dock. The Chinese on the dock glared at these Dutch people. Now, almost all Chinese people know that if there were no such provocation from these Dutch people, the indigenous people would not dare to attack them. If the indigenous people in Indonesia were the murderers, then these Dutch people would undoubtedly be the culprit!

"Consul, I am Aval, the secretary of the Governor's Office. I will negotiate with you on the order of the Governor! I will meet your supreme commander!" a young white man said proudly.

"Hmph! Are you Dutch people going to clean up the mess now? Where are you when our compatriots were massacred by those damn indigenous peoples?" Fang Minghong, the Consul of New China in Batavia, said coldly.

"Consul, I do not know what you said! I only know that the artillery bombardment of Batavia by your navy now caused the loss of life and property of the Dutch! Your Governor asked your navy to stop the artillery immediately!" said Aval.

"Haha! Secretary, do you think this is possible?" Fang Minghong laughed.

"I know, this is indeed difficult! However, I believe that your commander will agree to the request of the Governor! Don't forget that there are so many Chinese people on the dock! Our army's cannons have been aimed at the dock at this moment! If the request of the Governor is rejected, you will know the consequences without me telling me!" Aval smiled!

"What? How dare you?" Consul Fang Minghong's face changed drastically!

"Consul, please stop talking nonsense. Take me to meet your supreme commander!" Aval said impatiently.

Fang Minghong had no choice but to take Aval on a small boat and sail towards the Xinhua Navy warship on the sea.

Soon, Fang Minghong and Aval boarded the flagship of the Second Fleet of the New China Navy, Cruiser No. 21. Fleet Commander Lu Haipeng met with Aval on the bridge, the secretary of the Dutch Indonesia Governor's Office.

"Commander, this guy is ordered to come to us for negotiation!" Fang Minghong explained to Lu Haipeng first.

"Negotiation? What's there to negotiate? So many people have died! These guys have to pay the price! I will never give up without slapping all the shells on the ship!" Lu Haipeng said immediately.

"No, Commander! Those Dutch people threatened us with their compatriots on the dock! If we do not stop the shelling, they will attack their compatriots on the dock!" said Consul Fang Minghong.
