Chapter 504: The General Offensive Begins

Sudan. Agung stood at the foot of the city of Batavia, and watched with a gloomy face as the warriors of Mataran retreated like a tide. In the face of Batavia's fortified artillery, his warriors had been beaten back several times.

Behind him stood the elders, prime ministers, and privy advisors of the Mataram Kingdom sect, as well as the chiefs and princes of various places. Sudan. Agung yelled angrily: "Give me to continue the attack and defeat the Batavia ......"

Before he could finish his words, he was stopped by the sect elders behind him.

"Let the warriors rest, the capture of Batavia is not a matter of moments. Let's take our time and try to get them to retreat. ”

The others also persuaded him, and this made the Sultan . Agung ordered the troops to be collected. When they first besieged the Dutch, they had been besieging them for more than two months, and in the end they might have taken Batavia had not been burned with food in the rear.

Sudan. Agung also knew that the capture of Batavia this time was definitely not something that could be captured in a short time, so he ordered the warriors to repair and continue the attack in the afternoon. He didn't believe how long they had surrounded Batavia and how long the Far East would last.

The Far Eastern Army at the head of the city did not use heavy machine guns and artillery, not even grenades. It was only with rifles and grenade launchers, relying on the topography of the Batavia Castle, that he repelled several attacks by the Mataran Kingdom.

At this time, the forces scattered in the vicinity of the Combined Fleet had easily annihilated the Dutch in various places, and then left a part of the troops to garrison, and the remaining main force was converging on the island of Java.

A group of militants in the Military Council, after receiving Li Ming's order, all sent telegrams in person, expressing their absolute support for Li Ming's order, completely destroying the Mataran Kingdom, and striving to deter the natives in various parts of Nanyang in the First War. Let them be afraid when they hear the name of the Far East.

The natives of the kingdom of Mataram did not capture the city of Batavia for a day, so they had to die down and prepare for a long siege. But how did they know that there was a big net slowly covering them.

On the morning of the next day, Li Ming and the commanders of the battalion and above of the units of the Combined Fleet stood at the head of the city of Batavia.

"The 2nd Assault Fleet has landed and occupied a vantage point overnight last night. The first attack of the enemy. That's when we launched a general offensive. Let's all go and prepare, all the troops must attack fiercely and quickly, and strive to annihilate a large number of the enemy's living forces under the city of Batavia. ”

After listening to Li Ming's order, everyone responded violently, and then went back to prepare.

Li Ming picked up the microphone and shouted: "Zhou Cheng, Ding Weiguo, how are the preparations of the Navy and Air Force?" ”

"Report to the commander, that the 1st and 2nd Assault Fleets are ready, and that all gun emplacements are on standby. Ensure that the first round of artillery fire completes the coverage. ”

"Rest assured commander, the Air Department is ready, two Cessna 208 Caravan amphibious aircraft, two Robinson R44 helicopters, and six delta-wing aircraft are ready to take off and provide all-round air support for the main attacking force. In addition, eight airships of the airboat detachment have already arrived near Batavia and are ready to provide the troops with aerial reconnaissance, communications relay, and artillery firing tasks. ”

Li Ming said in a deep voice: "All troops are ready, after the enemy's attack begins. The troops listened to me. ”

With Li Ming's order given, all units were ready for battle. Dozens of water-cooled heavy machine guns were erected at the head of the city, and dozens of mortars, mountain guns and infantry guns in the city were also prepared, just waiting for the natives of the Blue Kingdom to attack the city.

Sudan. Agung stood at the foot of the city of Batavia and shouted to several generals around him: "Today is the first time to attack the city, send all the elites up, and attack a little harder." Let the Far East know our determination and force them to retreat. ”

After several generals of the Mataran Kingdom bowed and saluted, they went down to prepare. Sudan. Agung sneered at the Batavia Castle in the distance, this time he must capture Batavia and drive all forces out of Java Island.

Suddenly. There was a loud shout from under the city of Batavia, and countless natives rushed up from all directions. The Far Eastern Army at the head of the city suddenly became excited. They were armed with weapons and waited for orders from commanders at all levels. All the commanders were also waiting for Li Ming's order.

The natives of the Mataran Kingdom, who came like a tidal wave, frantically rushed to the bottom of the city, erecting various ladders and trying to rush up to the city. Li Ming looked at the natives gathered densely under the city, and shouted into the earphones: "Fire ......"

"Bang bang...... Bang bang ......"

Dozens of water-cooled heavy machine guns on the city were the first to roar, pouring dense bullets on the natives below the city, and the heads of the natives were blown out one after another. The countless natives crowded under the city could not even turn around, and could only let the rain of bullets and bullets shed under the city harvest their lives.

The riflemen found it unsatisfying and simply threw out the grenades, each explosion causing severe casualties to the natives. Sultan in the distance. Agung watched as tongues of fire erupted from the head of Batavia, and the Mata-Blue warriors beneath the city were severely wounded.

Sudan. Agung turned around and shouted, "Quick...... Let the warriors withdraw ......"

Several generals behind him heard this and hurriedly prepared to give the order to retreat, but a burst of earth-shattering sounds came from a distance. Let everyone be stunned.

"Boom...... Boom ......"

Suddenly, the Sultan. Agung felt a loud bang suddenly behind him, and his eyes were suddenly blackened, and his ears were a little deaf. He turned around, and the tent where the defense line was originally located was already bare, within a radius of dozens of meters.

The tent was gone, and the elders, prime ministers, and privy advisors of the Mataram Kingdom sect in front of the tent, as well as the chiefs and princes of various places, had also disappeared. A large number of slaves and guards did not know where they went. All that was left was stumps and severed arms and blood splattered everywhere.

With a series of violent explosions, the "warriors" of the Mataran Kingdom camp were wiped out one by one by the dense artillery fire. The natives who were a little stunned by the bombing were already stunned, and they looked around one by one with confused faces.

The sea near Batavia has already boiled, and dozens of modern heavy artillery guns fired several rounds of artillery in one go, because the distance is close, the first round of accurate coverage was completed, and the military formation of the Matalan Kingdom was blown all over the field.

Many of the natives who were not affected by the explosion were so shocked that they were bleeding, and they could not hear anything in their ears, and they even forgot to flee. Wherever they had ever seen such heavy artillery fire, they thought it was a nightmare.

I don't know who reacted first, I turned around and ran away with a wail, and the natives of the Mataran Kingdom collapsed in an instant, and more than 100,000 people suddenly dispersed.

Several generals of the Mataran Kingdom pulled the Sultan who was already scared to pee. Agung rushed out desperately, hundreds of fierce guards, like crazy, slashed the natives who stood in their way, but the entire army array was in chaos, countless natives were crowded together, and they were swallowed up by cannonballs one after another.
