1890 King of Southeast Asia

Chapter 20 Pirate Attack

The official battle began at noon on the 14th, and on the fifteenth on the fifteenth day, there was no casualties after the seven people were injured. On the 16th, the Dutch colonial army surrendered collectively on the 16th, and the battle was officially ended.

The Chinese soldiers are all recruits, and the firearms are lacking. The most advanced rifle is the improved type of Martini Henry, with only one hundred.

Bullets, artillery shells, etc. are only enough to fight at a low intensity, and homemade weapons are substitutes with poor aiming ability.

Liu Yiming also prepared multiple plans. The original plan was to drag the soldiers who could drag in the inner city and the barracks, creating opportunities for the three battalions to go to the turret, and then transferred the goals, bombarding the barracks, docks, inner cities, and other goals to threaten them to surrender.

I didn't expect that the Dutch was so bad, had no fighting spirit, and had no combat effectiveness, and only the second half of the barracks became a positive attack. Essence

The news of the Dutch surrender spread throughout Surabaya, and everyone was stunned.

Some people are happy and worry about the news of the Dutch surrender. Whether it is the attitude towards the future of the Chinese or active participation, they want to compete for the Chinese in the future.

The pirate that was originally prepared to attack Surabaya did not get the news on the 14th. It was not until the evening of the 15th that there were pirates to report to the letter. The 16th pirates were concentrated on the transit. After the Dutch, the Dutch was attacked and occupied the wind. (When the pirates of the Xin'er left, the news of Henry surrendered has not been worn yet.)

As for the fifty pirates who were originally preparing to accept the northern turrets, they were drunk as mud after getting off the boat. They planned to take it again at night. Unfortunately, they could not wait, and they were lucky. They were not captured or killed!

The noisy controversy of the island and Shanghai, most people believe that this is an excellent opportunity.

Some people think that the situation is unknown now. Even if the Chinese sneak attack can occupy the upper hand, there are a few brushes, and they don't want to visit muddy water. They are ready to see the subsequent development decision.

Because most pirates are not uniform, most of them are one hundred hundred in one. There are hundreds of people with big pirates, small and thirty or forty.

I was not trusting each other, and being able to gather together is not good at winning.

As a result, many people directly separated in the noisy noisy. Some take a boat to Surabaya, want to pick up cheap, some drove home, do not travel muddy water

More than a thousand people have separated from the transit and scattered in all directions.

With more than a thousand people left, under the leadership of a pirate who was preparing to attack Surabaya, they drove to Surabaya.

Surabaya, on the afternoon of September 15th, on the northern turret, Zhao Jiaxing, the chief of the artillery battalion of the northern turret in the north, is teaching recruits to use the turret to heavy guns.

Instead of teaching, it is better to discuss it. Earlier, the 2 mm three -inch shells were used. Now it is used in the eight shore -defense cannons. Theoretically, it is not far away, but the actual operation is particularly different.

For example, more than 150 are all packed medicines. The launching medicines are divided into packages, how to install medicines, how to operate, and the shooting distance is getting farther and farther. How to aim is also a problem. Fighting the maritime target, this group of artillery who had experienced informal teaching only three days before was blind.

Liu Yiming also knows that the previous artillery training was also prepared for this. The second batch of purchasing orders has been listed, but the telegram has not yet been connected. The first order was ordered before the battle. Relying on Hong Kong.

The first order increased and reduced, and the 5,000 rifles brought at the end are all Martini Henry's five improved models. The most important part of industrial equipment is the processing equipment of the shell. With these equipment, you can produce a round head black gunpowder bullet for Martini.

The steel industry can also formally steelmaking. From the cost of spending a large price of shipyards in India and Singapore, several flat furnaces or transfer furnaces have been removed. For the most important non -ferrous metal smelting equipment in modern industry, it can start. The data finally has a place of use.

When you find the operation of the device, you can engage in special steel and non -ferrous metal metal metallurgical. If you are natural, you can also conduct artillery trial production. Now, for the Chinese, the most need is time.

Whether it is industrial construction, agricultural construction, military construction, political power, etc., it takes time, and the new forces are striving for this time.

On the 16th, Liu Yiming's cargo ship finally entered Hong Kong. Liu Yiming, who had been daring for a long time, was relieved. The first batch of materials were the problem of solving the problem. People intercepted, in the same way, the cargo ship can enter, proving that the Dutch does not know the situation of Surabaya.

It is unloading, and the dock construction of the Dutch is still very good. There are more than ten to ten tons of steam power cranes. Half of which are mobile rail cranes, and are now second only to the Singapore's British Empire Navy Far East Fleet Base.

Thanks to the relatively comprehensive port facilities, rifles, various chemical raw materials, and industrial raw materials, the unloading is quickly completed. It is slowly unloading heavy goods, mainly various equipment.

At this time, the turrets on both sides suddenly issued a warning sound, a shot of a gun, and the red indicates that the enemy is approaching. Immediately, the headquarters Liu Yiming's headquarters dialed over.

In the temporary command office.

Liu Yiming was still sleeping. From the 14th to the 15th, Liu Yiming had not slept for more than 30 hours. Although he was not a military expert, Liu Yiming, who had the experience of being a pseudo-military fan, was already the most professional Chinese military expert in the whole of Surabaya. The staff department had just been established and could only play the role of conveying orders. Liu Yiming had to consider the specific plans and decisions.

The staff officer who stayed behind heard the unusual movement of the artillery and immediately woke up Liu Yiming. Liu Yiming woke up immediately after hearing the information.

"Find out what happened. The Dutch Navy should not react so quickly."

Liu Yiming, who was anxiously waiting for news at the command center, was already arranging to fire guns and prepare for street fighting. As a result, the news did not come. Liu Yiming, who could not bear it any longer, made a phone call.

"Hello, what's the situation now? Who are the enemies? How many ships are there?"

"Report, there are about 30 ships, they should be pirates. The other side is too slow, so there is no report!"

"Pirates?" Liu Yiming was confused. Why are you here at this time?

"Order the northern artillery to fire and drive them away. Just treat it as an artillery training exercise. Tell them not to be stingy with their shells. There are plenty of them!"
