"The Dutch Ministry of Defense confirmed that the UK has deployed a new second-generation submarine that can submerge on the east coast of the UK to attack Dutch European territories."

On March 20, 1879, the Dutch military publicly confirmed for the first time that Britain had deployed more than five submarines with a submarine range that reached the Dutch second-generation level in the Port of King's Lynn in the North Sea.

This greatly shortens the distance from which it can strike the Dutch European territories, especially the coastal strip of the former Belgian province of West Flanders that is now Dutch territory.

Vice Admiral Parklen, commander of the Dutch Atlantic Fleet, said at a press conference held in Rotterdam, where the fleet is headquartered, that Britain's five second-generation submarines were built to threaten the Netherlands and challenge the Netherlands' submarine status.

"We keep a close eye on the movements of these submarines," Parkron said.

The Dutch Ministry of Defense built the Quadrangle Building in Melbourne 10 years ago as the headquarters of the Dutch military, which means that it is committed to the four directions.

Since its construction in 1875, the Quadrangle has released an assessment report covering the military capabilities of various countries around the world every year in accordance with the requirements of the Dutch Parliament.

Last year, a military report on Britain in 1878 stated that the British Royal Navy currently had more surface warships than the Netherlands, reaching 450,000 tons. The submarines had purchased the first-generation Dutch submarines in 1870, and after seven years of imitation, they were manufactured in 1878.

The first second-generation submarine was built, and the current number has reached 5.

This report predicts that the British Royal Navy submarines will eventually gain the ability to advance from the sea to the deep sea and challenge the Dutch submarine hegemony. Even in the event of an Anglo-Dutch war, British submarines will launch an attack force against the Netherlands.

Parklen declined to say whether any of the five Royal Navy ships were currently on "threat patrol" off the Dutch European coast.

In response, on March 21, 1879, the Parliamentary Research Bureau of the Kingdom of the Netherlands commissioned Brown, chief researcher and director of the Amsterdam Peace Institute, to conduct an assessment report.

The final assessment was that the first-generation submarines purchased by the UK had a submersible range of 50 nautical miles. Currently, the five British submarines have a submersible range of 300 nautical miles, allowing Royal Navy submarines to submerge from the east coast of England to the Netherlands.

They attack parts of the Dutch territory along the southwestern coast, but if they want to attack the northern part of the Dutch European territory, these submarines have to sail on the surface for a period of time before they can achieve it.

However, the British second-generation submarine named Prince Albert has an increased stealth range, which has changed the situation of the Netherlands being the only one in the underwater world.

To this end, Admiral Charles, commander of the Dutch Strategic Command, was invited by the Dutch Parliament and went to the Parliament on February 21 (1879) after the establishment of the new cabinet government to tell the Dutch Military Committee that Britain’s new second-generation submarines would make the British

For the first time, it has the ability to conduct medium-water attacks on the European territory of the Netherlands from the British mainland, sneaking close to the Dutch European Netherlands from a British mainland coast protected by British surface ship fortresses, and targeting the Dutch territory there.

As the Dutch Ministry of Defense announced the news that Britain has mastered second-generation submarines, it immediately attracted a lot of attention in the Netherlands and even the world.

News reports from some European and American countries believe that Britain’s submarine journey even exceeded 400-500 nautical miles.

"They now have the ability to use submarines to conduct uninterrupted and determined patrols below the surface of the water without anyone noticing, and more submarines will appear."

Charles said, "They have a real submarine command system and advanced underwater equipment comparable to the Dutch submarines."

It was under this situation that on March 15, 1879, Wissanoo, the Minister of Defense of the Kingdom of Siam, visited the Quadrangle of the Ministry of Defense of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

Wissanu, Minister of Defense of the Kingdom of Siam (the predecessor of today's Thailand, Cambodia, and Laos) held talks with Mark Ludde, Chief of General Staff of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, at the Four Corners. The Kingdom of Siam reaffirmed the defense relations between the two countries and is committed to strengthening cooperation; both sides

Agree to continue the bilateral "Army Grand Cooperation" exercise and "Maritime Grand Cooperation" exercise.

Wissanu's two-day working visit to the Quadrangle in Melbourne was Wissanu's 10th visit to the Dutch Ministry of Defense since he was promoted to Minister of Defense of the Kingdom of Siam in 1870 by Chu Ralongkorn of the Kingdom of Siam.

Wissanu reiterated the long-lasting close and friendly defense relations between the two countries.

According to a statement from the Dutch Ministry of Defense, Wissanu rekindled the long-lasting, close and friendly bilateral defense relations between Siam and the Netherlands during the talks.

Mark Rudd and Wissanu stated that the two countries will continue to be committed to strengthening defense cooperation in accordance with the enhanced defense exchange and security cooperation agreement signed in October 1870.

The two also agreed to continue holding the "Grand Army Cooperation" and "Grade Naval Cooperation" exercises in the second half of 1879, and looked forward to further cooperation in military education, as well as academic exchanges such as academic visits and political and security dialogues.

During this meeting, both sides even believed that the two countries were currently under obvious threat from the United Kingdom, so the two countries decided to strengthen military interaction.

According to the enhanced defense exchange and security cooperation agreement, the Netherlands and the Kingdom of Siam will also establish a bilateral defense common defense line, that is, the Netherlands on the island of Sumatra in the south of the Strait of Malacca in the central and western part of the Dutch East Indies and the Kingdom of Siam on the Malayan Peninsula.

Part of the Luo Kingdom carried out a military visit system.

On behalf of the Kingdom of Siam, Wissanu agreed to the request of the Netherlands, and the Kingdom of Siam sold Phuket to the Kingdom of the Netherlands for 1 million Dutch guilders (equivalent to 40,000 pounds).

Mark Luder and Wissanu affirmed the progress in discussing the relevant memorandum of understanding.

The two also exchanged views on international and regional security developments, and emphasized the importance of the Netherlands maintaining the security of the entire Southeast Asia, including the Kingdom of Siam. At the same time, Wissanu also emphasized support for the Netherlands' approach to Chile's position in South America, and emphasized that the Netherlands' South American

The Meeting of Foreign Ministers of the Americas is very important in establishing the value of strategic dialogue for peace and virtual and real cooperation in South America.

The two sides also reiterated the importance of maintaining open channels of communication and strengthening mutual understanding and trust, stating that this is crucial to regional peace and security.

Mark Lued later elaborated to a Dutch newspaper that he had had many rounds of cordial and good dialogue with Wissanu, “The judgments and concerns of the Ministry of Defense of the Kingdom of Siam and our Ministry of Defense on geopolitical developments, and the efforts to ensure that Asia and Southeast Asia maintain

Same desire for stability.”

He pointed out, “We also understand the threats posed by the Kingdom of Siam and its Ministry of National Defense to the Kingdom of Siam from the two major powers of Britain and France in the east and west of Southeast Asia. Therefore, the Kingdom of the Netherlands will help the Kingdom of Siam maintain security during the next period and will

Let Britain and France not take desperate measures.”

The final draft of the announcement by the two countries shows that the defense agencies of the Netherlands and the Kingdom of Siam will regularly invite the Kingdom of Siam to participate in Dutch-led multilateral exercises, high-level visits, and professional exchanges through bilateral and Dutch invitations to enhance relations between the two countries.
