Cheng Biguang was on Heilong Island, waiting for the time for the war to start, Qingdao side, a combined fleet composed of 12 destroyers and 27 attack ocean-going submarines was in full swing preparations, and then it took less than 1 day to leave the Qingdao dock and set off.

For many reasons, it will take at least a year for the Northwest to be able to prepare for joining the Allies and participating in the European War, which is for the balance between the two blocs, and China's center of gravity is not in Europe, but in Asia and the Pacific, which is destined to prepare more.

The Strait of Malacca, recently ushered in a series of busy, whether it is from China, cargo ships to the Middle East, or from Europe, almost let the Dutch family come to the fleet, 300,000 troops, for the weak country and small people of the Netherlands, it is already the strength of the country, but unfortunately in the pace of the world's progress, if you do not advance, you will retreat, the Netherlands is a small country in the world's leading things can not happen, even if it is the United Kingdom, in the future will gradually decline, in the next ten years of power, will always be a huge land area, With a large population, a full range of production capacity, and no shortage of any kind of minerals, it is able to independently climb the technology line.

This is the case with the United States, the Soviet Union is like this, and the China of later generations has not gone to the top, but it has always been regarded as an imaginary enemy by the United States, because according to the previous elements, China is in line, but it is a little worse in science and technology, but since the reform and opening up, it has quickly reversed the direction of the past and advanced in all aspects. The development is quite rapid.

Land always comes first, whether in the past or now, only a larger amount of land can feed more people, and then there is the question of whether the land is fertile, and people are the most basic element of production. In the future, China's primary goal is to develop to the north, and the south will certainly not let go, but it will be handed over to Borneo as the core of the hands of the Nanyang country, in the plan, the future scope of the Nanyang country, including Indonesia. Most of Malaysia, including the Indochina Peninsula, can be seen whether it is directly under the central government or not.

Malacca International Seaway, the young Dutch admiral German? General Norton stood on the bow of the Seven Provinces Alliance, the only time the Netherlands had attacked with an all-army since their defeat in the Anglo-Dutch Wars hundreds of years earlier. It's a coincidence, De? The ancestors of Norton. It was De, who served as the commander of the Dutch navy during the Anglo-Dutch War? Knight, hundreds of years of vicissitudes, the Dutch Navy, which was in full swing in the past, has become the weak chicken now, at a time when more than 30,000 tons of super dreadnoughts have been popularized in all countries. The Netherlands is nothing more than an old protective cruiser with 6800-ton guns and 280 mm guns, which has to be said to be a sadness.

However, he is only 31 years old and is still in the prime of life. General Norton, who served as the captain and naval commander of the Seven Provinces Alliance, does not think so, this time, perhaps the prelude to the Netherlands to renew its voice, has never been to Southeast Asia, but in the records and history, General Norton, who has seen everything in Southeast Asia, seems that the Chinese in Southeast Asia, no matter how many people there are, are vulnerable.

Another 10,000-ton bulk ship passed, with a clear Chinese logo on it, a little dazzling, although now, the founding ceremony has not yet been carried out, but the national flag has begun to travel around the world, and the northwest embassies and consulates general around the world are also fluttering this flag, red represents the heat and enthusiasm, but it makes the Dutch very unhappy.

Even the Dutch, who are late to their senses, know that the millions of more Chinese in Borneo must be inseparable from China and the Northwest, and if in this sense, the Northwest is the enemy, and the enemy must be unscrupulous, and he even has an impulse to solve these cargo ships belonging to China in the Strait of Malacca.

The housekeeper next to him, noticing Norton's expression, watched him grow up since he was a child, almost longer than his parents had been with him, Barentz knew Norton's thoughts, coughed slightly, and said: "Young master, you still have to refrain from it, this is Malacca!" ”

Norton suddenly woke up, this is not a few hundred years ago, the era of Anglo-Dutch hegemony, the Netherlands has completely declined, Britain dominates the seven seas, Germany is in a strong challenge, and China has also risen, even if it looks down on more, in Malacca, attacking the fleet belonging to China, it is still transporting important materials for Germany, and it offends the two strongest countries in the world at once, even if he is proud, he must think about it, especially Germany, Germany is too close to the Netherlands, after defeating Belgium, The German army has almost been set up outside the gates of the Netherlands, between countries, only by virtue of the kinship between Her Majesty the Queen and King Wilhelm II, it is not reliable at all, in principle, the royal families of European countries are relatives, once Queen Elizabeth, almost grandmothers and grandmothers of all countries, but it is not the same, Britain and Germany fought.

Clenching his fists, Norton tried to control his emotions, and after taking a few deep breaths, he looked into the distance and said to Barents: "After Malacca, it should be almost there!" ”

"Two days to go!"

In 2 days, Norton did not produce any other moths, so that Barents breathed a sigh of relief, although Norton's family still has some power in the Netherlands, but it is not as good as the era of the ancestors, this time the Indonesian matter, in the Dutch political arena is very controversial, and in the end it is a reluctant majority to pass this dispatch, but when the troops are dispatched, the top of the army, almost no comes, in the end, it is pushed to Norton, the young man, Norton is arrogant, he doesn't know what he is afraid of, but he is afraid, in case something goes wrong, how to explain, as long as you arrive in Jakarta, you must control Norton's hot temper as much as possible.

The scene of Jakarta, then let Norton a little excited, as the Netherlands has operated an important stronghold for more than a century, here with a strong Dutch style, in fact, with the development of the Netherlands, there are not many people who really live in the Netherlands, densely populated, fierce competition, it is better to look for directions elsewhere, Indonesia as the largest and last complete colony in the Netherlands, originally had more than 300,000 Dutch people, and now, a large number of troops and navies are stationed, The total population has exceeded 700,000 and is constantly increasing.

Norton had just disembarked in Jakarta, and Cheng Biguang and Xiao Jianfeng knew that even if the Netherlands tried to reduce the influence of Chinese on Indonesia and Jakarta as much as possible, it has been rooted in Nanyang for hundreds of years, and it is inextricably linked with all aspects.

In the intelligence, not only the approximate number of the Dutch army is included, almost between 300,000 and 350,000, these are not the focus of Cheng Biguang's attention, his focus is always the navy, the island war, the naval battle first, maybe in Borneo, after there is no sea dominance, you can also rely on the larger islands, hide inside, other islands, some battleships and guns, around the island, you can plow the island, and where can you run.

The Netherlands came a total of 21 warships of different sizes, of which the main force is the Seven Provinces Alliance, 6530 tons, equipped with a 280 mm gun, one 5000 tons, one 3500 tons, these are the three main forces, and the rest, there are 6 protective cruisers of 3800 tons, the rest, is a small ship of different sizes, and even a torpedo boat of more than 600 tons, it can be said that the Netherlands has brought all the strength it can bring, but unfortunately these are not enough, just one Black Dragon, A correlative ship of more than 9,500 tons is enough for them to eat a pot, even if they do not go through the modification of the northwest, they can fight his three capital ships alone, not to mention after the modification, not to mention the speed and escape, in a short time, they can even have a few tricks with the dreadnought.

The navy is like this, win it all, the more advanced and powerful it is, the more you can win everything, the Netherlands unknowingly, in a few hundred years, has become a backward party, and the former sea coachman style no longer exists.

Compared with the Dutch Navy, the Northwest is actually more concerned about Britain and France, and at present, the British and French fleets have not made too many moves, and originally as the anchorage of the East Asian Navy, the East Asian Fleet should be stationed in Singapore, but unfortunately the Northwest is pressing step by step, so that the East Asian Fleet does not dare to leave Hong Kong at all, because the garrison in Guangdong has exceeded 250,000, and it is also increasing.

This created an opportunity for Cheng Biguang, with the Dutch's expedition of thousands of miles, they will not stay in Jakarta for a long time, whether it is a force or a ship, they will go to Borneo, as long as the black dragon attacks, it is just a war between the Netherlands and the black dragon, seize the opportunity to solve the war situation in a short time, and the victory must belong to the black dragon.

The two naval giants discussed, and then contacted the domestic reinforcement fleet, knowing that the domestic reinforcement fleet had left the vicinity of Guangdong, entered the South China Sea, and was about to arrive in the South Sea, and there were at most 3 days to be able to reconcile with the Black Dragon fleet, they decisively issued a series of orders.

On this small island that the Netherlands and Britain and France do not know, a large naval fleet is gradually showing its fangs, and the target is the Netherlands, which is in the waning mountains, but at this moment, no one has found that Britain hopes that the Netherlands can do it in the South Seas, with the blockade of their East Asian fleet, the powerful army in the northwest will not be able to go to the sea at all, as long as it hurts the northwest and the Chinese suffer huge losses, it is time to conclude a treaty, the war situation in Europe is tense, and Britain has no energy to spend here.

The abacus is a mountain sound, but unfortunately, this time the battle of Indonesia is destined to disappoint Britain and the Netherlands, this war named the Nanyang War of Independence in later history, and even radical historians position it as the battle of the rise of the Chinese, which is destined to write a strong stroke in the early 20th century of this time and space.
