The journey starts from the Titanic

The journey begins with the Titanic Chapter 492

In recent years, a large number of Chinese have poured into the island of Sumatra. They reclaimed farms and developed forests. While developing and constructing Sumatra, they also encroached on the living space of local people.

Thinking of this, Hassan is instinctively unhappy, but now he cannot do without the support of the Chinese in Medan. Even if he understands the ambitions of the Chinese, he is helpless. Speaking of which, the Acehnese live worse than the Chinese?

How about preventing Chinese military advisers from entering your army?Hassan was a little embarrassed.

In the end, the fear in his heart prevailed, and he smiled slightly and looked at Kian a little sorry.

"Thank you for your kindness. Although our army has not been long enough, I have full confidence in my compatriots. Our desperate spirit is enough to defeat the corrupt enemy."

"Okay! I respect your choice. Whether it succeeds or not, our support for the people of Aceh will remain the same." Kian said with some regrets, but sneered in his heart: "Sure enough, I was an ignorant native who fought a sneak attack. I am so proud that if the Acehnese are so powerful, they will not be destroyed by others?"

In the following days, Kian stayed in Aceh and served as a liaison officer with the Free Aceh Movement organization, providing information about the Dutch collected by Medan to the Acehnese, and at the same time directing the upcoming Chinese reinforcements....

Aceh militants attacked the Dutch and Indian troops in Southeast Asia. It is not the first time. The area has never been calm, but this time the action was a bit big.

They suddenly rose up like a big tonic, and wiped out more than a thousand Dutch and Indian colonial forces in Banda Aceh.

The first to receive news was the British on the other side of the Strait. The British occupied the golden waterway and strategic location of the Strait of Malacca, and they were more sensitive than anyone.

The Dutch-Indian garrison was annihilated, and Dutch businessmen suffered heavy losses, and many were killed.Unfortunately, many Dutch people have not been able to escape Banda Aceh in time.

In addition to the Dutch, Banda Aceh also has businessmen from other countries, who promptly relayed the news to the Government House of Singapore.

The British warship came to Simawei Port shortly after the incident, looking across the sea to the land, confirming that there was indeed a regrettable conflict in Banda Aceh.

It was impossible for the British to make any moves, but they promptly ruled the Dutch and Indian Colonial Governor's Mansion in Jakarta.

After Governor Van Persie heard the news of Banda Aceh, he began to distrust what the British said. After trying to contact Banda Aceh’s colonial government to no avail, he had to believe this fact.

Not long ago, the governor-general discussed with Major General Van Nistelrooy to send troops to attack the local Aceh guerrillas. I didn't expect the Acehnese to give them a big surprise first. Why did he make him angry?

"Damn Acehnese! How dare they attack our barracks? Am I being too kind to them? Am I being too kind to them? I should kill them all!"

Before Major General Van Nistelrooy approached the Governor's room, he heard the old guy's roar from a long distance, with the sound of broken porcelain from time to time.

After hearing that the army stationed in Banda Aceh was annihilated, Major General Van Nistelrooy couldn't believe it, but the facts proved that Jakarta has lost control of Banda Aceh.

When did the Aceh Armed Forces have such a strong combat power?Or is it because the queen's army has been vulnerable to a single blow?

Major General Russell Van Nistelrooy felt that things were not that simple. The most important thing was to figure out what happened to Banda Aceh?Are there other forces involved in it?

Will it be British?

Major General Van Nistelrooy suspected the British for the first time.

Nanyang originally belonged to the Netherlands, but after the British came, they snatched large areas of Malaya, Singapore, and Burma from the Dutch, leaving only the Indonesian archipelago to the Dutch.

However, the British are still not greedy and dig the corners of the kingdom from time to time. The larger island of Borneo occupied by the British in Sarah is proof.

Major General Van Nistelrooy thought very much. After a while, when he walked into the governor's room, the room had been cleaned up, and the governor was calm and wise, looking at Major General Van Nistelrooy with confidence and gentleness.

"Have you heard about Banda Aceh?"

"Ok."

"what is your viewpoint?"

"The most important thing is to figure out what happened? Is there any other forces involved?" Major General Van Nistelrooy raised his own question.

When he was reminded, Governor Van Persie also thought of the British.

However, he immediately shook his head again.

Regardless of whether the matter is true or not, it is impossible to point the finger at the British.If there is a diplomatic turmoil, he, the governor, will really be ashamed of the stage.

After brewing for a while, Governor Van Persie looked at Major General Van Nistelrooy slightly: "According to the escaped merchant’s news, the kingdom’s army was defeated by an attack by the indigenous Acehnese in the early morning. I doubt why the kingdom’s army is like this. How vulnerable?"

"Your Excellency, you are an insult to the army!" Major General Van Nistelrooy looked at Van Persie's brown-spotted face angrily.

"This is not an insult. It is a fact! Unless you tell me, our merchants and army are still safe in Banda Aceh?" Governor Van Persie said righteously, wanting to take this opportunity to beat the army well.

"This..." Major General Van Nistelrooy was a little confused, and secretly scolded Van Persie for using the topic.The old fox pushed the blame on the army, but he couldn't refute it.

After thinking about it, Major General Van Nistelrooy had to put the blame on the native soldiers.

He explained: "Most of the troops in Banda Aceh are Javanese soldiers, and the number of Dutch officers is small. It is inevitable that they will be attacked by others."

Missed for a while?

Governor Van Persie dismissed Major General Van Nistelrooy’s explanation and sneered in his heart: Don’t think that I don’t know that you officers are negligent in their duties, not doing their jobs properly, thinking about making money all day, and putting a little thought on training.The decline of the sea coachman is because there are too many unqualified generals corrupting the kingdom's army.

However, seeing Major General Van Nistelrooy subdued his attitude, Governor Van Persie no longer grasped this question.He frowned slightly and asked faintly: "Does the military have any countermeasures? When will Banda Aceh be recovered? I will report this to the country soon."

"I'm already dispatching troops. After receiving the news, I dispatched troops stationed in Palembang, Jambi and other places, and 5,000 people rushed to Aceh.

The kingdom's army is well-equipped and invincible, and it must make those bold Acehnese look good!"

Major General Van Nistelrooy said with an iron expression, wishing to kill all the Acehnese who made him shame.

"it is good!"

Governor Van Persie was very satisfied with Van Nistelrooy's attitude. He categorically said: "Give you a month, and a month later, I don't want to hear the word "freedom" Aceh. If you want to be free, that's the freedom that the Queen grants them. We don't give it. , They can't ask for it."

"One month? Will time be too tight?"

Major General Van Nistelrooy disagrees with the Governor's words, thinking: If those timid Acehnese retreat to the mountains, there will be no hope of annihilating them in a year or a half.Before conquering Aceh, the kingdom took decades to drag down the Aceh Sultan?

Governor Van Persie ignored the opinions of Major General Van Nistelrooy. He said a bit arrogantly: "Just one month! Unless the military tells me that they won't fight anymore, they have nothing to do with a few natives."

"Damn! Old Piff!" Major General Van Nistelrooy secretly scolded the governor. This guy who was about to step down wanted to go back to retirement, but he suffered the army.

But no matter how much he refuted, there was no point.It is not wise to directly confront the governor by crushing people to death.In any case, the military has to use actions to defend its reputation.

Under the bargaining of Major General Van Nistelrooy, the Governor agreed to send additional manpower to join the 5000 Javanese indigenous troops stationed in Jakarta in the subsequent suppression of Aceh.

Although the specific figures are not clear, the Dutch's actions cannot be concealed from the Medan intelligence personnel. After comprehensive analysis, it is probably known that the number of troops sent by the Dutch and Indian authorities to Banda Aceh is close to 10,000.

This is a few thousand more than expected. If the Chinese do not intervene, it is estimated that it will be enough for Aceh to eat a pot and may even be wiped out by the Dutch and Indian authorities.

After receiving the information from Kian from Banda Aceh, Medan decided to let the Acehnese who do not know the heights and heights learn a profound lesson. Therefore, the information that Kian provided to Hassan was concealed.

The Acehnese who have obtained Medan’s arms are very uplifting. They learned from Ki’an that the number of the upcoming Dutch-Indian army is only half of their own, and most of them are poorly equipped and neglected Javanese natives. They have to withdraw to the mountains. His heart was pulled back, ready to fight, let the world see the power of Aceh.

Chapter 65 The Wind Rises (5)

Just as the Dutch and Indian colonial forces were confidently driving towards Banda Aceh, sporadic sparks appeared on the densely forested Borneo Island.

A group of unknown militants attacked a post in Pontianak, killing 5 indigenous soldiers and wounding a Dutch officer.
