The Sun Never Sets Great China

The pepper, dried tea, rice and other things and materials of the natives are naturally useful to the army of the Chinese Empire Navy. However, the most important thing for the Chinese Navy's navy at present is to obtain a vast land for the fleet to dock. Wei Xiaobao then broke off a branch from a nearby tree branch, used a branch to scratch the ground and gestured for a long time, the leaders suddenly realized, and immediately backed away, marking an area of ​​tens of square kilometers for the navy of the Chinese Empire. When they docked, they also gave up part of their wooden houses for the soldiers of the Chinese Empire to use.

With a vast area as a base, the troops on the naval ships began to disembark one after another. They began to build a naval base. Under Wei Xiaobao's communication, he took out some silk and porcelain and hired local aborigines to build it. In three or four days, a barracks base enough to accommodate tens of thousands of officers and soldiers was built.

Pontianak is the closest place in Borneo to Malacca. It takes only ten hours for an iron-clad ship to arrive, and nine hours for the fastest wooden warship wrapped in iron. Now, as long as you find the right time, you can immediately The Dutch attack.

After the naval base in Pontianak was basically built, Liu Guoxuan's fleet also arrived in Pontianak. The navy of the Chinese Empire can now attack and retreat. As long as it contacts the Portuguese in Malacca, it can immediately attack the Dutch. To launch an attack, it can be said that everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

There is a legend about the origin of the Lion City. About 400 years ago, Panna, the prince of the Kingdom of Srivijaya in Sumatra, arrived on the island by boat and saw a black beast. The locals told him it was a lion, so it was called the Lion City. Singapore It is the homonym of the Sanskrit Lion City.

At this time, the Lion City was far less prosperous than the garden city of Singapore, one of the four tigers of later generations. It was located at the easternmost part of the Strait of Malacca, at the entrance and exit of the Strait of Malacca, a major shipping route between the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean. Far worse.

The population distribution of the Lion City is complicated, including Malays, Indians, Tamils ​​and Han Chinese. In later generations, there are [-]% Chinese in Singapore, and most of them are Han Chinese who fled here from the Qing soldiers. In this time and space, most of the Han Chinese fled to the Chinese Revolutionary Army. Later, the Chinese Revolutionary Army defeated the Manchus, so the Han people did not flee here on a large scale. The corresponding Lion City is dominated by Malays, with less than [-]% of the Han people, and some of them followed Zheng He. The descendants of the Han people who stayed in the area during the Western period also had some Han people who migrated here one after another. Of course, there were also a small number of Han people who fled here because they saw the strength of the Manchurian army and lacked confidence in the Chinese Revolutionary Army.

The ancestors of Mr. Liu in Lion City can be traced back to Zheng He’s voyages to the West. However, the original head of the Liu family lived in Malacca, and the Lion City only had the property of the Liu family. Later, since Malacca was occupied by the Portuguese, the Liu family Everyone and property moved to the Lion City except for the land. Now the Liu family has lived in the Lion City for more than 100 years. The residents of the Lion City may not know who the owner of the city is, but no one will not know the famous Master Liu.

Master Liu's name is Liu Yukun, but his family members, local officials and friends all call Liu Yukun Master Liu. Over time, the name Liu Yukun is basically not used except when worshiping ancestors.

Before Grandpa Liu’s ancestors moved to Lion City, Lion City could be said to be completely barren. Most of the residents on the island here only live a life of fishing and hunting. The reclaimed fields are not only his family’s hundreds of acres of land, but also the land of local people. Both are less than a thousand acres.Now more than 100 years have passed, and the fertile land belonging to the Liu family alone amounts to tens of thousands of acres. The Liu family also controls a fleet of nearly a thousand people, and there are thousands of tenants attached to the Liu family. There are hundreds of people, and if they are attacked by the enemy, they can even quickly organize an army of thousands of people.

No one would have expected such a big family to serve the Chinese Empire thousands of miles away. After all, although the Chinese Empire is the hometown of the Liu family, it has been hundreds of years, and the Liu family has long been in this land. On rooting, there is really no need to take risks.

As early as the period of the Chinese Revolutionary Army, Wang Xiaolong's intelligence department was dispatched everywhere, hidden in the merchant fleet, looking for informants in various countries in Southeast Asia, but they mostly funded the poorer Han people to take root in the local area, after all, they trained themselves The talents of the Chinese Revolutionary Army are loyal and reliable. For this reason, the Foreign Intelligence Department of the Chinese Revolutionary Army spent more than 20 silver coins in Southeast Asian countries every year. Thanks to the economic support of various military industries, heavy industries, and businesses that belonged to the Chinese Revolutionary Army established by Zhang Huahan, Otherwise, Huang Ziya at that time would not have been willing to spend this money, and he would not have seen the great use of spending this money.

However, the facts have proved that the money spent is worthwhile. In just a few years, almost all Southeast Asian countries have established strongholds of the Ministry of External Intelligence of the Chinese Empire, with more than 500 internal staff and thousands of external staff.

It’s just that the development time of such intelligence personnel is too short after all, and it is difficult to obtain local high-level intelligence. Like those Han people who have already taken root in Nanyang, most of them have big families. When the news came that Mr. Liu was willing to serve the Chinese Empire, the intelligence department was overjoyed. They sent high-level personnel from the intelligence department in charge of Nanyang intelligence to secretly arrive in Lion City. If you make great efforts, you will assist the Liu family to become the Lord of the Lion City. If you are willing to return to the inland of the Chinese Empire to live, at least you will be granted an official position at the level of one city and one county.

At this time, the Lion City belonged to Johor. The history of Johor is almost the same as the history of Mr. Liu’s family coming to the Lion City. The first Sultan of Johor, Mahathir Sahara, was the Sultan of Malacca, but after Malacca was occupied by the Portuguese, he fled. to Johor and established a new kingdom. Even so, the Sultan of Johor has been making efforts to recapture Malacca from the Portuguese. Inheriting the principle that the enemy of an enemy is a friend, the Dutch who attacked Malacca at the beginning were There were guides sent by Johor. Not only that, but Johor also sent troops to cut off the land connection of Malacca. Johor wanted to help the Dutch capture Malacca and regain Malacca as its own territory. Later, the Dutch occupied Malacca, but There is no intention of returning it to Johor, and even killed the envoy of Johor, and let Johor's bamboo basket fetch water in vain, and returned a lot of rice.

Whether it is the Dutch or the Portuguese, they are now enemies of the Sultan of Johor. Even the Chinese Empire, the Sultan of Johor considers them invaders. If the current Sultan of Johor Abu Baja knows that the Liu family wants to help the people of the Chinese Empire, wait for him The Liu family is about to face catastrophe. Although the Liu family is strong, it has not yet reached the point where it can compete with the power of Johor. After all, Johor is next to Malacca and has attacked Malacca many times. Although Malacca was not taken down , the Portuguese and the Spaniards can do nothing to Johor, which shows the strength of Johor.

Mr. Liu is a person who cares about his hometown. He has always been proud of being a Chinese in the Central Plains. He has a lot of affection for his hometown, which is why he helped the intelligence department of the Chinese Empire. The matter of quietly working for the intelligence department of the Chinese Empire is impeccable. Except for his sons who know about this matter, even his wives and concubines also keep it secret. With strict secrecy measures, he seldom has anxiety, but at this moment he Facing a thin young man, he was a little restless.

The young man in front of him is the leader of the Nanyang intelligence department of the Chinese Empire. His name is Zhang Nianshan. Zhang Nianshan has been in charge of the entire Nanyang intelligence department for these years. Departments naturally have to play their role.

Shi Lang thought that Mr. Liu was just an ordinary person, and originally wanted to arrange for a few people to enter Malacca to get in touch with the Portuguese on the battlefield through him, but he did not expect that Mr. Liu was a big shot in the intelligence department. He agreed, notified his identity to the people in the navy, and refused the people in the navy to join. He sent a liaison officer to contact Shi Lang, saying that he could complete the task.

Of course, Shi Lang was very happy to get the great assistance from the intelligence department. This is also an affirmation of the achievements made by the intelligence department in the past, but now the personnel have been dispatched for four days, but no news has come out. This makes Master Liu anxious Yes, especially today even Zhang Nianshan rushed over from Puliange. If there is no more news, the navy decided not to wait any longer. The army will start sailing in two days, and attack the Dutch on the third day.

It is better to wait for the Dutch to destroy the Portuguese army in Malacca than to wait for the situation to be unknown. After all, it has been almost two months since the Dutch reinforcements attacked the Portuguese position in Malacca, and their army was already exhausted from fighting the Portuguese. , There is a great deal of confidence in taking down the Dutch, but in this way, the intelligence department that has not played any role will lose face.

In the northeast of Malacca, in order to prevent the Dutch and Portuguese from attacking nearly [-] Johor troops, the road was cut off, and even flies could not fly through it. One day, after passing the defense line of the Johor army, I kept observing the battle and array between the Dutch army and the Portuguese army on the opposite side through the binoculars, and finally grasped all the rules of the Dutch patrol army, and planned to sneak in through a small river in the woods tonight. Below the forward slope of the Portuguese position.

Liu Fude is the youngest son of Master Liu, and he is responsible for the contact with the Portuguese this time. There is also a Portuguese in his team. This Portuguese is Raphael's confidant, and he is responsible for gaining the trust of Portugal on the battlefield. Soldiers, otherwise, if you didn't complete the mission and were killed by friendly troops, you would be in trouble.

The Lion City is more than [-] miles away from Malacca, and it needs to pass through the entire territory of Johor in the middle, however.These are just minor obstacles.Mr. Liu is not only well-known in the Lion City, but his caravan is also unimpeded in the entire Johor. With the cover of the caravan and the bribes of the Johor army officers, Liu Fude led people through Johor in two days.

However, it took a lot of time to enter Malacca from Johor. After all, Johor has always had a bad relationship with the Dutch and Portuguese in Malacca. Usually, caravans can pass through. This time, the war in Malacca is tense, and the Johor army is paying close attention. The dynamics of the two sides, if the two armies are both defeated, they still want to get a bargain to take back Malacca, which belongs to Johor, so even if you are allowed to do some business in the army, people outside the army are not allowed to enter the place where the Dutch and Portuguese armies are at will. .

It took everyone two days to bypass or bribe the army's inspection and enter Malacca, but it was more difficult to enter the Portuguese position where the Dutch were attacking from Malacca.

Liu Fude and others had to spend three days and figured out the patrol rules of the Dutch army before they found the gap and sneaked in with confidence. It proves that the Dutch have not broken through the Portuguese position.

After nightfall, Liu Fude and the Portuguese were wearing only a pair of shorts, an oil paper bag tied to their bodies, and carrying a pigeon cage, and they went into the water five miles away from the Dutch army. They needed pigeons to deliver messages, otherwise they didn’t need to stay outside in vain. Wait for a few days to find out the patrol rules of the Dutch army. If you are a simple person diving, you can go there at any dark night.

Pigeons cannot dive, otherwise they will drown immediately. If they are accidentally discovered by patrolling Dutch soldiers, the Dutch soldiers' muskets will make them escape in the water. It also entered the water, and only the upper part was exposed for the pigeons to breathe. In order to prevent the pigeons from flapping and making noises, the pigeons' wings were carefully tied before entering the water.

As soon as the two of them entered the water, the pigeon seemed to be in a panic, but its wings were bound. After moving a few times and finding it helpless, it started cooing anxiously. Liu Fu was so startled that he had to turn his head to signal the people on the shore to put the pigeon on its beak. Also tied.

Re-entering the water, the four homing pigeons found that they could not even move their beaks, so they had to accept their fate and let the water flood their chests. Only then did Liu Fude feel relieved and swim down the current with the Portuguese.

This river is directly connected to the moat outside the Dutch mountain city, just passing through the Portuguese position, and there are trees around it so that no one can find them. There is also a legend about this river. It is said that in 1396 for the Prince Srivijaya, who had left Sumatra to deal with the Marapache Empire, was resting under a tree while hunting. One of his dogs cornered a mouse deer. In self-defense, the mouse deer threw the dog's hooves into the river. Bailey Impressed by the courage of the mouse deer, Misura decided to build an empire where he sat, and he named it Malacca after the tree that rested beneath it.And this river is the river where the mouse deer drove the hunting dogs of Prince Paramisura down. Because the moat of Malacca is running water, and the mountain city of the Dutch is built on the hillside, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. After the siege, after all, the mountain city was not further captured before the arrival of Dutch reinforcements.

When the Dutch cooperated with the Sultan of Johor to attack the Malacca mountain city guarded by the Portuguese, it took more than three months for the Portuguese to fail after they ran out of ammunition and food.

Gossip less, it took Liu Fude and the Portuguese two people half an hour to pass through the Dutch barracks and arrive at the bottom of the rocky slope in front of the Portuguese position. They had to stop several times in the middle to avoid For the soldiers who had been on patrol, fortunately, the Dutch patrol was covered by trees. Otherwise, they would have been exposed if they watched the river a little more carefully. However, they were not as boring as the Dutch soldiers who went to the woods to stare at the river at night.

Liu Fude and the Portuguese quickly crossed the river to the bottom of the hillside in front of the position, and they went ashore and climbed up the hillside. The Portuguese knocked on the wall with a tool to give a signal. The people were overjoyed when they heard the code. Ever since Rafael gave them the code of the spies who ordered them to wait for the reinforcements, they had been waiting for the code for nearly two months. Now they finally got the news. Thinking of the arrival of reinforcements, the Portuguese soldiers all Get excited.

With the help of the Portuguese, the two quickly climbed over the earth and stone wall and entered the position. At this time, the Portuguese position was almost unstoppable. The Portuguese shells had all been fired, and the artillery became a display. Half of the army's regular army suffered casualties, and the navy was almost completely wiped out. It was only because of the hope of reinforcements that the Portuguese blocked wave after wave of attacks by the Dutch. If there was no hope of reinforcements, Governor Rafael would have surrendered long ago. .

When Raphael got the news of the reinforcements, he had no choice but to lie down and rest. He hurriedly received Liu Fude, and when he heard that the Chinese Empire's army had arrived in Borneo, which was only half a day away from Malacca, even Colonel Marat couldn't help it. shouted: "Thank God! We can go home."

Raphael immediately decided to concentrate all the ammunition and block the Dutch for another three days. After causing serious damage to the Dutch within three days, the Chinese Empire took the opportunity to attack the Dutch again, killing the army in the mountain city occupied by the Dutch and the troops outside. The Dutch army was completely wiped out.

Rafael's decision is in his best interest. On the one hand, he wants the Portuguese army to use up the last bit of strength to reduce the losses of the Chinese Imperial Army to please Zhang Huahan. On the other hand, he still cannot let the Portuguese army lose Too big, if the loss is too big, when he returns to China, his official career will be affected due to the loss of too many soldiers. After all, he did not take Malacca, but let the Chinese Empire take it, and his idea is that after both sides please, the Portuguese can Trade with the Chinese Empire. With trade, there will naturally be a lot of money for Portugal to earn. Even if Raphael lost a lot of Portuguese soldiers, he can make up for it. In addition, he spent a lot of money in Portugal. His own Naturally, the future will not be lost, and Zhang Huahan's goal of occupying Malacca has been achieved. Naturally, Zhang Huahan will not expose him. Instead, he will speak good things about the Chinese Empire in the Portuguese high-level, which is beneficial to the Chinese Empire.
