Across Indonesia, the situation has become a mess. In almost all cities in Indonesia, Indonesian riots broke out. Big cities such as Batavia and Zambolong on Java, Palembang on Sumatra, and Pontianak on Kalimantan are the key places for Indonesians to riot. The local Dutch police were all wiped out, and the Dutch garrison was surrounded in the barracks, shivering. The Chinese were also greatly hurt, and the Chinese who survived also hid in the consulate to seek refuge.

The weak rule of the Dutch kingdom in Indonesia is vividly executed in this qiē table. Indonesia's governor, Johannes Benedict, receives reprimanding telegrams from home almost every hour, leaving him miserable. However, the incompetence of the Dutch army and the betrayal of the Indonesian army made it impossible for him to quell the riot. What awaits him in the end, Governor Johannes Benedict hardly dares to imagine!

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Several violent explosions rang out, and Wilt, the secretary of the Governor's Palace, rushed into the office of Governor Johannes Benedict. At this time, it was July 14th, and it had been three days since the Indonesian riots, which had already swept the whole of Dutch Indonesia. And the repression of the Indonesian Governor's Office can also be officially declared a failure!

"Your Excellency the Governor, no, the Indonesian mob has entered Batavia! The Indonesian natives of Batavia have joined in, and now they are rushing towards the Governor's Palace! Wilt exclaimed in panic.

"Oh God! How so? What the hell is that guy doing with Scott? He has 5,000 elite Dutch troops in his hands! Governor Johannes Benedict cried out in horror!

"Your Excellency the Governor, the Indonesian army near Batavia has all joined the riot. With the addition of those mobs, the Indonesians who attacked Batavia are more than 100,000! General Scott couldn't resist it, and now he was trapped in the barracks! Wilt said.

"Order the Governor's Palace Guards, prepare to defend the Governor's Palace, and not let the Indonesian monkeys break through the Governor's Palace! In addition, order the garrisons everywhere to quell the chaos with all their might! Governor Johannes Benedict ordered.

"Your Excellency the Governor, the Governor's Palace Guard is only five hundred. We can't resist the attack of the Indonesian natives. Otherwise, let's retreat! The cruisers of the Navy are already waiting in the harbor! "Wilt built yì road!

Governor Johannes Benedict hesitated, but finally shook his head. If he had abandoned Batavia and fled, he would have no chance. Hold on to the Doge's Palace, and maybe there will be a moment of miracle!

"Send a telegram to the country. Tell them, the situation in Indonesia is very critical now, and I will stick to it until the last moment. In addition, please send reinforcements to help us quell the chaos, if it is too late, the situation in Indonesia will be even more out of control! Governor Johannes Benedict said!

"Well, Your Excellency the Governor!" Though. Wilt complained somewhat about Governor Johannes Benedict doing this, leaving everyone with him in the crisis. But the order had already been given, and he could not refuse. Now the Dutch troops in Indonesia are very difficult to protect themselves. Where can the Indonesian riots be quelled? As for sending reinforcements from within the country, it will take at least a month. When they arrive, it is estimated that they will have to collect the corpses for everyone. The only people who can quell the Indonesian rebellion are probably the Chinese. But. It's easy to please God, but it's hard to send God! The Netherlands has been guarding against China's ambitions for Indonesia, and it will not allow Chinese to enter Indonesia.

The Guard of the Doge's Palace. Start preparing to defend yourself against the Indonesians! A strong set of heavy and light machine guns were erected to form a tight defensive line. Although the guards of the Doge's Palace were only 500 men, they were indeed the best equipped. The area of the Governor's Palace is not large, and relying on the elite Governor's Palace guards to defend this place should not be too much of a problem!

The Chinese Consulate General in Batavia also received news that the Indonesian mob had invaded Batavia. There are tens of thousands of Chinese in Batavia. As soon as the Indonesian riots began, these Chinese gathered up and came to the consulate general to seek refuge. However, where can the Consulate General accommodate so many Chinese! There was no choice but to contact the ship to transport these Chinese to Singapore. So far, there are about 10,000 people left who have not had time to transfer.

"Your Excellency Consul General, the Indonesians have invaded Batavia, and we have to find a way to do it immediately. The guards of the Consulate General are only a few hundred people, and if they are armed in the past few days, there are only a thousand people, and they will not be able to resist the attack of the Indonesians! Lieutenant Colonel Cui He, military attache of the Consulate General, reported.

"The ships we can contact have already departed, and the merchant ships sent from China are still on the way!" Consul General Zhou Zhenghao also frowned! If the Indonesian natives can delay the attack on Batavia for a few days, then all the Chinese here can be transferred.

"Your Excellency Consul General, let everyone go to the port! The Consulate General, for sure, is the target of the Indonesians. We go to the port, which is more suitable for defense. In addition, it is possible to wait for the nearest navy. The 52nd Regiment of the 5th Marine Division, which has just received information from Singapore, is expected to arrive this afternoon. In addition, two light cruisers of the Navy are already off the coast of Batavia. If we go to the port, they can provide us with fire support! Lieutenant Colonel Choi He said.

"Alright, let's all go to the port!" Consul General Zhou Zhenghao ordered. Now, the most important thing is to protect the lives of these Chinese, as for the rest, we can only talk about it after this catastrophe!

Off the coast of Batavia, two light cruisers were cruising twenty kilometers from the coast. These two light cruisers are the 'Tianshui-class' light cruisers belonging to the Indian Ocean Fleet of the Chinese Navy, namely the 'Xianyang' and the 'Weinan'. The main force of the Indian Ocean Fleet, at the moment in the Indian Ocean, the home port of Singapore, does not have too many warships, mostly some light cruisers and destroyers, and heavy cruisers are also very rare. However, against the Dutch Navy, which had only a few broken ships, there was no problem at all.

The Xianyang and Weinan were ordered to arrive from the Indian Ocean and crossed the Sunda Strait before reaching the waters off Batavia. However, it was intercepted by the Dutch Indonesian navy. Although, the Dutch Indonesian Navy dispatched only four cruisers with a displacement of about 2,000 tons, and they belonged to the old cruisers in service in the last century, and their combat effectiveness was extremely low. The 'Tianshui-class' light cruisers, although they are also considered to be the light cruisers of the previous generation in the Chinese Navy, and the main light cruisers of the Navy have been replaced by 'Ningbo-class' light cruisers, but the 'Tianshui-class' light cruisers are still very advanced light cruisers in the world.

"Captain, the Dutch sent a telegram asking us to leave the Dutch Indonesian waters, otherwise it will be regarded as a provocation to our Dutch Navy, and the consequences will be borne by us!" The communications officer took a telegram and reported to Lieutenant Commander Wei Yuanhang, the captain of the light cruiser 'Xianyang'!

"Humph! A few broken boats still dare to shout in front of Lao Tzu! Sue the Dutch, we are here to rescue our overseas Chinese, let them get out of the way immediately, otherwise, it will be regarded as a provocation to the Chinese Navy! Also, send a telegram to the Weinan and ask them to follow us! Lieutenant Colonel Wei Yuanhang ordered. The two 'Tianshui-class' light cruisers, with a much larger displacement than the four old light cruisers of the Dutch Navy, are equipped with twin 155mm main guns, although the caliber is not as large as the old naval guns of the Dutch Navy, but they are much more powerful than them!

After the telegram was sent, the main gun turrets of the 'Xianyang' and 'Weinan' began to rotate and were aimed at the two light cruisers of the Dutch Navy. The Chinese Navy is ready for battle!

On the light cruiser 'Java' of the Dutch Navy, Dutch Navy Captain Kenneth was trembling with anger!

"These damn yellow-skinned monkeys, this is the territorial waters of the Netherlands, and they still want to order us to retreat, it's just too deceitful! Sue them and let them leave in ten minutes, or war awaits them! Colonel Kenneth ordered.

"But, Your Excellency Colonel, although we have four battleships, I am afraid that we will not be able to defeat the enemy's two new cruisers!" A staff officer said with an embarrassed face. The two warships of the Chinese Navy are almost twice as large as them, and needless to say, the armor and firepower are much stronger than theirs.

"For the glory of the Dutch Navy, even if it is sunk, we will fight to the end!" Colonel Kenneth said stubbornly.

"Your Excellency Colonel, the Chinese warships are aiming at us!" An exclamation rang out.

"Hell! Do the Chinese really want to go to war with us? Colonel Kenneth was also a little frightened.

"Your Excellency Colonel, the Chinese said that they are going to rescue overseas Chinese, let us leave immediately. Otherwise they will go on the offensive! Said the communications officer.

"Delusion! Sue them, the Dutch Navy will not retreat! Colonel Kenneth said through gritted teeth.

Five minutes later, two light cruisers of the Chinese Navy made a new move.

"Aim two hundred meters in front of the Dutch battleship and fire!" Lieutenant Colonel Wei Yuanhang gave the order!

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "Orange-red flames shone in the muzzles of the guns, and a huge explosion rang out. A few seconds later, several columns of water rose more than 200 meters in front of the Dutch Navy's light cruiser 'Java'.

"The Chinese have fired! Fight back! "Colonel Kenneth was shocked and furious!

"Your Excellency Colonel, the Chinese are warning us! We are no match for them, retreat! "More officers built yì road.

Colonel Kenneth was silent for a few seconds, but finally nodded, and under the force of the Chinese Navy, they chose to compromise and retreat!
