The Great Bandit in Kangxi Year

Chapter 238 Kangxi Licking His Wounds

It was more than 20 days after Jiang Tao saw the Dutch envoy. During this period, the Dutch East India Fleet increased its troops to Batavia, and began to fight with the multinational coalition forces on land. The confrontation of the multinational coalition fleet really attracted the attention of Britain, France and other countries, so that some warships of Britain and France did not dare to join the main fleet, and prepared to transport the landed army away when the war was unfavorable.

The Dutch Far East Fleet, relying on its familiarity with the Strait of Malacca, actually succeeded in highlighting the Strait of Malacca at the moment of dawn a few days later, and the two sides had room to dodge. There was a fierce artillery battle between the battleships, each of which fired almost half of its shells.

In the end, the Far East Fleet won a disastrous victory by virtue of its numerical advantage. The 23 battleships and [-] cruisers of the multinational coalition fleet sank [-] ships on the spot, of which [-] battleships sank and [-] cruise ships sank. Three surrendered, eleven were seriously injured and could not escape, and the others fled.

As for the Dutch Far East Fleet, 26 warships were also sunk, including seven battleships and 19 cruisers, and other warships were also traumatized to varying degrees.

After the war, the supply ship also arrived. Joseph did not dare to be careless, so he replenished the ammunition on the spot, and secretly said: "According to the strength of the multinational fleet, there are only ten battleships and more than 40 cruisers left outside the port of Rabhan. With the remaining strength, we can completely defeat the opponent again, but we are afraid that the fleeing enemy ship will come back with a carbine."

However, he thought that there are many narrow places in the Strait of Malacca, and his side only needs dozens of warships to calmly resist the opponent's attack.

After the supplies were completed, Joseph took seventeen battleships and fifty cruisers to Labuhan Harbor. As for the rest of the warships, they all sailed into the Strait of Malacca for defense. It is to block the opponent's attack.

……

Jiang Tao didn't know this. He wasn't interested in the purpose of the Dutch side's special envoy or the promised benefits. He would grab what he was interested in by himself. In fact, what he wanted to know most was whether the other party started a fight?
After repeatedly testing the Dutch envoys to no avail, Jiang Tao summoned important cabinet ministers and asked, "Is it time to attack now?"

Wei Donglai closed his eyes and thought about it for a while, then said seriously: "Your Majesty, in fact, with the strength of the Black Dragon Fleet, we can send troops, but this time the Dutch side came to reconcile and promised a lot of benefits, which shows that they are very nervous, or they have ulterior motives."

"No intentions? Not good!" Jiang Tao suddenly recalled that the intelligence bases in Singapore and other places have not sent any intelligence for a month, which is supposed to be once a month, unless the intelligence personnel die unexpectedly.

Jiang Tao thought about it for a while, and secretly said: "The other party must be blocking some news. The other party sent an envoy. It is simply that the Dahua Empire made any request, and the other party agreed to whatever request. This is too unreal. Hmph, do you think you are stupid?"

"Come on, hurry up and order the Black Dragon Fleet to attack, immediately capture Singapore and the Strait of Malacca, and dispatch special warfare divisions and three marine divisions. This time, I will go on a killing spree." Jiang Tao no longer hesitated, directly ordered.

For this battle, Jiang Tao has already prepared marine divisions and special warfare divisions, some of which are on standby on Hainan Island, and some of which are by the side of the Black Dragon Fleet. The army of more than 5 is not much, but compared to the strength of the Netherlands' army in Southeast Asia , but it is much stronger, and the opponent has to divide his troops to defend.

Cheng Zhang's eyes lit up, hoping that the war this time would not be a money-losing business.

At the moment when Jiang Tao gave the order, a fierce naval battle was taking place outside the port of Rabhan. The multinational coalition forces were blocked from retreating, and their ferocity was aroused. The two sides fought fiercely for half a day, and even Joseph's flagship was sunk. If it hadn't been for the Dutch East India Fleet to come to reinforce, I am afraid this battle would be hard to say.

In the end, the multinational fleet only escaped with three battleships. As for the multinational coalition forces that landed, they were dumbfounded. When they ran out of ammunition and food, they had only one way to go.

Half a month later, the remaining [-] people of the multinational coalition forces surrendered to the Netherlands.

While Joseph was waiting to open champagne at the Batavia Governor's Palace to celebrate this great victory, it was heard that 150 cruisers from the Black Dragon Fleet were dispatched.

bang bang bang...

Several goblets fell to the ground and shattered.

In fact, the Far East Fleet of the Netherlands has been disabled at this time, and it will take at least a month of renovations to exert its original combat power. Although the Dutch East India Fleet still has strength, the warships they use are weaker after all. The number of artillery, or the defensive power, is more than one step weaker.

"Hahaha." Nicholas laughed loudly, and said solemnly again in a flash: "Gentlemen, isn't this what everyone planned? It's really time, and it was delivered to your door, just in time to defeat the Black Dragon Fleet. Go and re-sign the contract with Emperor Dahua. This time, the price of Eastern goods will be reduced by [-]%. Besides, no master is afraid of his apprentice. You must know that we still have eleven battleships available, while the other party only has three. Poor Three."

Joseph also nodded solemnly and said: "In order to win this battle, the Far East Fleet can still deploy 25 cruisers. In terms of numbers, the opponent does not have an absolute advantage. Let's all cheer and don't worry about it."

"Ha ha……"

At this moment, the governor of Batavia snorted and said: "Although so, the boys in the navy should not be careless. You must know that the opponent has defeated the Zheng Group after all. I understand very well, when they are cowardly, anyone can bully them, but when they are fierce, they are like devils. It's time to retire."

The governor's intervention immediately poured cold water on everyone, but for the sake of wealth and the colony, there is no choice but to fight and win!
.........

Just as Southeast Asia was bustling, Kangxi, who had already reached the Central Siberian Plateau, was licking his wounds.

Kangxi paid a great price for this great migration. With a population of more than 300 million, when they reached the Central Siberian Plateau, there were only more than 200 million left, and the non-combat loss of millions of people.

However, those who survived were all strong men and women. Fortunately, more than [-] Manchu iron cavalry and more than [-] Shenji Battalion with Lumi guns are still there.

Under the system of all the people are soldiers.

under threat of death.

Encouraged by hatred.

With the support of a strong desire to survive, they miraculously gained a foothold in the Central Siberian Plateau, defeated the local aborigines, and obtained a large number of slaves and horse food.

Under the massacre of this group of braided troops of various ethnic groups who had experienced death and hatred, the Central Siberian Plateau was only a few months away, except for the dead, only the slaves of the Qing Dynasty remained.

But the local Russian army is too weak, and this group of people is too crazy.

However, Kangxi was not satisfied with this. He wanted revenge. These territories were far from enough. According to the slaves, going west was a huge plain, where the population was dense and the products were rich.

However, the slaves said that the Rakshasa Kingdom was huge, and it was best not to offend the Russian Emperor.

Kangxi dismissed it and beheaded the white slave on the spot. No matter how big the Rakshasa Kingdom is, can there be the Great Qing University it used to be?
However, the bigger the Rakshasa Kingdom, the better. As long as the Rakshasa Kingdom is conquered, the Qing Dynasty will rise one day, and then the Black Tiger Bandit Army and all the Mongolian ministries will all die.

"I am not a reckless man, nor a coward. I want to become the co-lord of the world. This small Rakshasa Kingdom is only a part of the world. It will become the stepping stone of the Qing Dynasty. Thirteen pairs of armors of our ancestors can conquer the sky. Now that I have thousands of troops, why worry about failures! Hahaha."

Kangxi was in a good mood at this moment, and immediately ordered the chief eunuch to summon the captured beauty to relax tonight. Tomorrow, the cavalry of the Qing Dynasty will embark on the journey again.

After a while, the chief eunuch brought two young girls. They were only fifteen or sixteen years old, and they were twins. Standing in front of Kangxi tremblingly with the flavor of another country, I feel pity for him.

"Hahaha." Kangxi rushed forward, violently tore the white gauze...
