Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Van Dimen's engineers planned four parallel sections of shore fortifications in the Batavia port area, including shore forts and bunkers for musketeers to assemble. The military plans to deploy 50 to 60 artillery pieces on these four sections of fortifications to cover as much as possible the main areas of the port and the coastal waters, and strive to block the enemy from the sea and prevent the opponent from coming ashore.

In last year's encounter, the East India Company made a serious mistake, that is, it thought that it could easily block the opponent's attack with the help of a fortified city, but the Mataran people taught the Dutch a good lesson with their primitive weapons and offensive methods, and the victory or defeat on the battlefield was not determined by weapons and fortifications, but by the people involved in the battle. Although the equipment was backward and many of the soldiers did not even receive systematic military training, they were victorious because of their large number of troops and fought to the death, and they fought to the death, and they breached the fortifications and walls inside and outside the city of Batavia. If it weren't for the Dutch armies who rushed back at the last minute to steal the butts of the Blues, the thousands of Dutch in Batavia would have gone to God.

Van Diemen knew that the strength of the East India Company's garrison in the area could not be increased quickly, and the Matarans would not stop the idea of attacking Batavia, and the best way to effectively prevent the enemy's next offensive was to keep them at sea. Once the opponent is released ashore, even if the walls of Batavia can be repaired as before, the Mata Blues will be able to break through the city defenses again.

However, the construction of the shore defense fort is really not small, even with Haihan's engineering construction ability, it took two years to complete the coastal defense fortifications of Shengli Port. The shore fortifications of the port of Batavia have been implemented since the withdrawal of the army from Mataran last year, and even half of the progress has not yet been completed, and the construction results are far from meeting the requirements of the military.

The stone needed for the shore fortifications had to be transported from the quarries, about thirty kilometres south of Batavia, which was a difficult task. For this reason, the East India Company expropriated almost all of Batavia's cattle and horses and used them as animal power for transporting stones, and this measure did not help but cause resentment among the local people. As a result, the freight industry in the entire port of Batavia has been greatly affected, and the port trade, which was already in the post-war recovery period, has also been indirectly slowed down by this measure.

Nevertheless, Van Dyen was not satisfied with the state of construction of the shore fortifications, which were not strong with the flat bottom of the forts, but Van Dyen had no better solution for the construction period. He learned from the slave trader Captain Philip that the Haihan had a building material called "cement" that quickly cemented sand and gravel together and was said to resist water erosion. Later, Philip thought of a lot of means, and only then did he buy more than 2,000 catties of cement from Ambuna Island at a high price.

Van Deen was both happy and worried about the fact that it was much more effective than the earthen plaster used before, and was perfect for building fortifications that required a high degree of sturdiness. The worry is that the method of making this thing is in the hands of the Haihan people, and it is not something that can be bought with money, and it seems unrealistic to use this thing to complete the construction of the port of Batavia.
