The journey starts from the Titanic

The journey begins with the Titanic Chapter 528

Governor Gullit’s worry is not superfluous.In fact, after liberating the entire island of Sumatra, the South China Army landed on Java and destroyed the rule of the Dutch and Indian authorities.

Colonel Van Basten was also aware of the serious consequences, and his heart was full of bitterness.Not long ago, almost how to suppress the rebels, now it is only the defeat of Aceh, and it is necessary to guard against the enemy's invasion of the island.

After a while, Van Basten remembered that the Dutch East India Fleet was on its way to Medan, landing in Medan as planned, and destroying the South China regime.

"My Lord Governor, the opponent's strength is strong. Judging from the armored vehicles and planes on the Aceh battlefield, Medan's rebels will be stronger.

Before finding out the strength of the enemy, we must be cautious and can no longer act rashly.I propose to revoke the Medan landing operation plan and save Banda Aceh instead."

Colonel Van Basten reminded.

"By the way, we still have a strong fleet, and we haven't lost yet."

Governor Gullit finally remembered.Now the Dutch East India Fleet is copying Medan, the nest of the South China Army. Thinking about this, his confidence has recovered a lot.

It's like when a gambler thought that he was about to fail, he suddenly realized that he still had no trump card, and suddenly became excited again.

Do you want to cancel the login plan?Or to rescue Banda Aceh?

Power is limited. Governor Gullit could not grasp his ideas, some worried, and some unwilling, and finally handed over the decision to the commander of the fleet, Major General Ruben.

On the East Indian Ocean, the Dutch East India Fleet is advancing through the waves.

"This is the first time in the history of the kingdom that such a large force has been deployed. I really can stand up to those yellow-skinned monkeys."

On the Seven Provinces Union, Major General Ruben was holding a cup of black tea and looked at the huge fleet with pride.

This fleet is unprecedented. In addition to the 7,000-ton Seven Province Union light cruiser, there are 6 more than 1,000-ton destroyers, 9 sea cruisers, two supply ships and 10 troop carriers, carrying 23,000 people. army.

This is the essence of the navy and army of the Dutch and Indian authorities. In order to organize this fleet, the Jakarta Governor’s Mansion has made every effort to pin the suppression of the Sumatra rebellion on this fleet.

Thinking of this, he felt that his courage had increased a lot.

"I think at the beginning, our ancestors came here not far away, and they made great achievements and won the reputation of sea carriage driver.

Nowadays, the small troubles in Sumatra are not enough. When the powerful Dutch fleet appears in front of the yellow-skinned monkeys, their faces should look good, right?"

Thinking of this, Major General Ruben gave a confident smile.

"Emergency telegram from Jakarta." A Dutch officer came over, interrupting his imagination.

After reading the telegram, his face immediately became gloomy.

"Those black-skinned monkeys have so many weapons? And planes?" Major General Ruben looked unbelievable.

He read the telegram again and went back to the cabin without saying a word.

"Meeting! Urgent meeting." He ordered.

"That's the situation. The telegram has been confirmed by Jakarta. Everybody tell me? Go to Medan or Banda Aceh?" Major General Ruben looked at the solemn officers present here with a serious face.

In addition to several generals in the naval fleet, there are also generals in the army.The two factions are very distinct, sitting on either side of Major General Ruben.

"The people in the army are really useless! To be defeated by the yellow-skinned monkey is really a shame on the kingdom." A naval officer gloated.

"What are you talking about? Please respect it." The army officer sitting across from him said indignantly.

"I said that your army is not really angry at all. It always loses. The opponents are either natives or yellow-skinned monkeys. I really don't understand why so much money is spent on you. It is better to let us build a few warships." Naval Officer 1 Face disdain.

As soon as this statement came out, the other naval officers all smiled.The army officer flushed with fire in his eyes.

"I want to fight you!" An army officer stood up and pointed at the naval officer who spoke badly.

"A duel is a duel, are you afraid of you?" The navy officer stood up unwillingly.

There are sea and land disputes. Although Major General Ruben agrees with the naval officer's statement that the army should be allocated to the navy to build warships, there are occasions of volitional disputes.

"Naughty!"

He slammed the table, shouted loudly, looked at the two ignorant officers severely, and reprimanded: "Now it is a meeting. Every decision will affect the honor of the kingdom and the lives of thousands of soldiers. , The vegetable market where you quarrel from time to time."

The officers held their breath, straightened their backs, and looked serious, not daring to play tricks.

"Can the Army fight again? Will your honor be washed away?" Major General Ruben looked at the Army officers with some suspicion.

"No problem! We will use our actions to reclaim the honor of the army." The brigadier general who was sitting at the hands of Major General Ruben promised. The contempt of Major General Ruben just now angered these soldiers.

"That's good! Let's go to Medan!" Major General Ruben said in a final word.

Although he was a little worried about the strength of the South China Army as portrayed in the Jakarta telegram, Major General Ruben believed that it was the army deliberately exaggerating the enemy's strength to cover up their incompetence. This kind of thing was too common.

Have confidence in your fleet!

Major General Ruben decided to follow the original plan and go straight to Huanglong, destroy the South China regime, and make great contributions to the kingdom.

Hearing that he was going to Medan, the army officer on the ship felt a little bit fooled.In fact, they are more willing to land in Banda Aceh to rescue the Dutch and Indian colonial forces trapped in the city, but now they have to follow the fleet to Medan.

Although the navy guys were a little arrogant on the ship, don't we rely on our army for matters on land?

Maybe it can really make an immortal result.I heard that Medan is very rich, maybe-some army officers imagined that no one opposed Major General Ruben's decision.

They don't know that they are really on the road of no return.

Compared with the swaying Dutch fleet in the Indian Ocean, the South China Navy is much lower-key.

A submarine launched from Sibuya off the coast of southern Sumatra followed the Dutch fleet for a certain distance before returning.

However, news of the arrival of the Dutch East India Fleet was learned by the South China Army.

In the South China Army base camp in Zhenhua Building in Medan, He Wenxiu sneered looking at the telegram just sent from the Indian Ocean.

"Haha. Since the Dutch are coming to die, let's fulfill them! Save us the trouble of finding them."

After that, he handed the telegram to the German Chief of Staff Marx?Bauer.

Bauer glanced around and nodded.

He groaned for a while and said, "I suggest that the Second Division should not rush to clean up the remnants of Aceh, and let the Dutch fleet rest assured!

This time we must go all out to concentrate all the forces of the navy and air force to annihilate the main force or one step of the Dutch fleet.Especially their infantry is dead."

"Go and arrange this! My old friend! By the way, let those planes in Aceh come back by the way!" He Wenxiu said.

Then the two discussed how to deal with the upcoming Dutch fleet.

The arrival of the Dutch fleet also aroused high-level attention from South China.

"A battle will determine the universe! After defeating this Dutch fleet, the Dutch are expected to die for a long time, and Sumatra has become a ripe peach. Haha!"
