Chapter 783: Marching into Batavia

***

Under Hele City, Mo Liang carried a Qinzi banner on his shoulders, looked up to the sky and smiled: Hahaha

Li Bai went out laughing at the sky, and Mo Liang came into the city laughing at the sky. Under the city gate, the king of the west and the king of Sulu knelt on the ground, listening to his long smile full of pride, and looked at the great Qin army behind him that was lined up in a neat formation and entered the city with neat steps.

Liu Xiang, who followed behind to hold the flag, said: "Mo Liang, don't scream as a ghost, this ghost crying wolf howls will damage the image of my Great Qin King Division." ”

Mo Liang replied disapprehantly: "Do you believe it or not, now we fart, they all say that it is fragrant, you see that they are all in the ass, and they dare to say that my image is not good?" Phew! ”

Well, there is money to be willful. The winner can be arrogant.

The full name of Sulu is the Islamic Sultanate of Sulu Peace House, but unfortunately it is not peaceful, and it dares to collude with red-haired ghosts to challenge Daqin, which is simply unknowing.

There were three kings in the kingdom of Sulu, namely the king of the east, the king of the west, and the king of the mountain. All of them have been canonized by the Ming Dynasty. The king of the Middle East is a hereditary sultan.

The capital city and Lecheng have been built for two or three hundred years, the length and width are each mile, the city is mostly Islamic style buildings, a mosque in the west of the city is six or seven zhang high, higher than the Sultan's palace.

The kingdom consisted mainly of the Datu (i.e., hereditary aristocracy), merchants, yeoman farmers, and the slave class. The hereditary nobility had its own territory, and was the head of the political, religious and military affairs of its territory, and the Sultan was the supreme political and religious leader.

The sultan ruled with the assistance of the Qadi (i.e., Islamic judges) and the Banglema (i.e., administrative officials). Among the countries in the South Seas, Sulu is a relatively developed country in terms of social economy, with salt making, winemaking, weaving, fishing, pearl diving, and commercial port taxes as its economic resources.

In short, this country still has some family background.

The fighting in the city had subsided, and the resistance of the eldest prince Trott was quickly swept away, and many Sulu nobles and soldiers chose to pay allegiance to the second prince Loran under the guns of the Qin army. Among them were the King of the West and the King of the Mountains.

Lot himself was captured, and most of the soldiers and nobles loyal to Lot became prisoners. Only a few fled.

After Loren seized the throne of the Sultan, he announced on the same day that Lotte had colluded with the red-haired ghost to poison the old Sultan, beheaded him, and hung his head at the city gate.

Immediately afterwards, in the name of the new generation of sultans, Loran ordered that the nobles who were loyal to Lott be raided. General Wang Guichen reluctantly took over the job of raiding the house. happily ran errands for the Sultan.

Then, the Sultan issued a proclamation, saying that His Majesty the Emperor of Great Qin was clothed with all things, supported the people with benevolence and virtue, and could not bear to see the people being enslaved, and announced the abolition of slavery and the release of all slaves.

As soon as this proclamation was issued, it was immediately opposed by many nobles, but the slaves were grateful. They knelt down to the north and worshiped Emperor Daqin.

As for the opposing nobles, before they could speak up, the Sultan once again announced that he would submit the "Please Accept the Chart Text" to the Emperor of Great Qin. Please incorporate the land and households of Sulu into the territory of Daqin.

This move caused an uproar in Helecheng, and ordinary people just ran to tell each other, out of yearning for the Chinese kingdom, there were not many people who opposed it. Some even cheered because they could be the people of Great Qin.

The opposition mainly came from those nobles, and after joining the Great Qin, whether their original interests could be guaranteed. No one knows, and Emperor Daqin doesn't know what his reaction was.

So, at the instigation of a group of nobles, the king of the west and the king of the king went to the sultan's palace to admonish him, asking the sultan to take back his order.

Then, the hard-working General Wang Guichen had one more job to arrest the remnants of the eldest prince Lot.

In short, the whole Sultanate can be described as a torrent of rapids, some people rejoicing, and some people are exterminated.

Wang Guichen, who had made a great gain, hurriedly sent an eagle boat back to Fusu Port and reported to Zhao Han, the governor of the capital, that he easily won the credit of the Sulu State with 900 men.

***

While Wang Guichen was busy asking for merit, another admiral led the sea like the wind, and on the orders of the emperor, led fifteen captured Spanish warships, one clipper ship, seventy eagle ships, bluff ships, and ten supply ships, totaling 5,000 men and horses. Skirt Borneo from the west and sail mightily into the Java Sea.

A general Xiang Hai Rufeng proposed to take the Boni Kingdom first, but was vetoed by Hai Rufeng.

Although the Dutch fleet in the Far East was completely wiped out, in fact its overall strength did not cause fatal damage to the sea coachmen, and thousands of Dutch armed merchant ships still roamed the seas except the Far East.

The spice trade in the Far East had always been one of the main benefits of the Dutch East India Company, and they were absolutely not willing to abandon the colonies in the Far East. Ma Suibori must have sent a ship back to the Netherlands to ask for reinforcements.

Now is the time when Batavia is the emptiest, we must seize this opportunity, first seize the island of Java and Sumatra, the Netherlands will send a fleet expedition again, it will take more than a year to go back and forth, by then Daqin should be able to manage the island of Java and Sumatra almost the same.

Since the detachment led by Jadir fled back to Malacca, the governor of Batavia, John Brown, received the news of the total annihilation of the Eastern Fleet. Ma Suiju is like falling into an ice kiln, extremely sad, he has only been in charge of the governor for more than a year, how can it be like this? For a moment, he really wanted to jump headlong into the Pacific Ocean.

There were only six hundred soldiers left in Batavia. Ma Suiju had no choice but to urgently organize an army of nearly 10,000 servants from the local natives, and at the same time ordered the expulsion of the Chinese in Batavia City.

In the whole of Southeast Asia, the largest number of Chinese living in Batavia City has reached more than 50,000. John. Ma Suijuri's expulsion order was immediately met with fierce resistance from the local Chinese.

Today's Chinese morale is very high, the Spanish created a massacre of Chinese in Luzon, and the Great Qin Emperor immediately issued an edict of crusade, and it was not just talking but not practicing, but really sent the navy, completely annihilated the Spaniards, and included Luzon in the rule of Great Qin.

With a strong motherland as their backing, the Chinese in Batavia were no longer willing to be lambs to be slaughtered, and sent people to Luzon for help while organizing against the Dutch.

Soon after they sailed into the Java Sea, they encountered a Chinese ship going to Luzon for help, and after hearing that the Dutch were expelling the Chinese and killing them on a large scale, the sea was like a hate, day and night, and rushed to the port of Batavia.

Qin's fleet was killed, and John. Ma Suiju did not care about clearing out the resisting Chinese, and hurriedly ordered several hundred Dutch soldiers to resist the attack of the Qin army with shore artillery.

The city of Batavia was the headquarters of the Netherlands in the Far East, and twenty or thirty fortress guns were placed in the port to block the entrance to the harbor.

From the Chinese who came to ask for help, Hai Rufeng learned about the details of Batavia Port and the city's defense. It had only sixteen gunboats, and it was very difficult to force the fortress artillery blockade of the port of Batavia, and even if it succeeded, it would have to pay a heavy price.

After consulting with Adjutant General Ke Chenshu, Hai Rufeng decided to land with a small boat carrying the Marines from near the harbor and attack from the shore. The Dutch had limited troops, and as long as there was no artillery to defend the sand disaster, the Qin army was confident that it would force a landing.

Hai Rufeng ordered all the gunboats to press outside the port of Batavia to contain the Dutch forces, and then chose a beach less than ten miles east of the port of Batavia as the landing site, and 1,000 marines armed with Type 68 rifles carried out the landing on the beach with 20 landing boats, each of which seats 10 people at a time.

John. Ma Suibori received the report and sent 5,000 indigenous servants to intercept it. When the Marines rowed their skiffs to a distance of 100 paces from the shore, they turned the dinghy sideways and opened fire on the native servants on the shore with 200 men in unison.

The sound of gunfire was incessant, and from time to time there was a rocket, and the explosion was earth-shattering, and the servants on the shore were beaten to the ground. But he had no ability to fight back against the Qin army a hundred steps away.

The Marines quickly rushed to the beach, set up a beachhead on the shore, and the small ships returned to the sea again, and the second and third groups ferried five times before and after, and it took more than half an hour for 1,000 Marines to successfully land, and under the leadership of the commander Hu Dahai, they killed the city of Batavia
