Dongwanlut is located in the inland area just north of Pontianak and is the third largest city in Lanfang Kingdom.

This is right between Singkawang and Pontianak.

Luo Ye did not dare to escape to Singkawang because it was also a coastal city. The Dutch relied on the support of the fleet and were not something that the Lanfang people could deal with.

But is Dongwanlu safe?

You must know that this time the Dutch have gathered nearly 25,000 native servants. These natives are very familiar with the rainforest terrain here.

Passing through the path in the rainforest, a city wall built with logs and tiles stands on an empty river beach in the forest. The flat land beside the river is full of green rice fields.

Neat ridges cut the rice fields into neat pieces.

This place is like an unknown paradise.

Luo Ye stood on the top of the city. He had a square face with Chinese characters, thick eyebrows, dark skin with shallow wrinkles. His body always exuded the temperament of a mature man.

However, at this time, Luo Ye no longer had the high spirits of the past. He had been trained as the successor of the Luo family since he was a child, and he had attracted the attention of everyone around him.

He has always wanted to revive Lan Fang Kingdom, but now he has lost Pontianak. He even fled to Dongwanlu with his family in despair.

"Great Ruler, our people saw the coalition army fifty miles away in the south. It is a native army." A subordinate came to Luo Ye's side and reported.

At the critical moment of the Dutch attack, Luo Ye led the legion controlled by the Luo family and escorted the Luo family's people to escape shamefully.

He turned his back on the Chinese in Pontianak, and the Chinese, including other major families, were ruthlessly massacred in Pontianak.

Luo Ye knew that he was doomed. Even if the Dutch retreated, their family would be despised by the Chinese in Southeast Asia.

"Have you contacted General Liu Wei? Is Singkawang still safe?" Luo Ye asked.

At this time, he thought of Liu Wei again. Liu Wei led the Qinglong Army to resist the invasion of the British from the north.

Singkawang is where Liu Wei is stationed, and the front line of the battle is exactly in the Sanfa area northeast of Singkawang.

"The next step for the Dutch after taking over Pontianak is to attack Singkawang and block our connection with the outside world. Dongwanlu is protected by a city wall, and we still have tens of thousands of troops. We are now starting to build defenses outside the city and create traps.

, prepare to roll the wood and rocks, there is still time." The officials under his command heard that Luo Ye was ready to continue running away.

So I quickly stood up to stop it.

When Luo Ye heard what the other party said made sense, he quickly sent someone to ask Liu Wei to come back for support.

He also ordered the two southern legions to move northward and abandon the southern area of ​​Lanfang.

In fact, most of the forces in the south are vassal states of Lan Fang Kingdom. Where is the core triangle area of ​​Pontianak, Dongwanlu, and Singkawang that is important?

Under the persuasion of his subordinates, Luo Ye finally decided to stick to Dongwanlu. Since all the Luo family members were here, he had no choice but to do nothing.

At the same time, the Dutch fleet had reached Singkawang.

At the same time, bombardment of the port was launched. Unlike Luo Ye, Liu Wei was a pure military commander.

He regarded it as his duty to protect the Chinese people in Nanyang.

The Blue Dragon Corps, with five men defending Singkawang and Sanfa, still persisted.

The time came on the second day when the Dutch attacked Singkawang.

They had landed from the port, and Liu Wei had people set up defense lines along the streets in the city.

The coalition forces invaded the city several times but were repelled by the Chinese troops hiding in houses and streets.

General Oden ordered Singkawang to be bombed to the ground.

Shelling of city houses began. The Dutch used explosive shells and even fired rockets.

Houses in the city were on fire.

Liu Wei led his army to retreat to the northwest of the city. He resisted for a long time, and the civilians in the city had retreated.

"General Liu, please hold on a little longer. Our Chinese first fleet will arrive soon. As long as they defeat the Dutch fleet, they will have half failed."

The Dutch-Turkish coalition came from the sea, and the sea was their retreat.

There are no roads at all in the vast inland rainforest of Borneo.

The coalition forces came from the sea and could only retreat by the sea.

Standing next to Liu Wei at this time was Huang Wei, who was teaching in Pontianak.

Huang Wei is the head of the ANBU stationed in Lanfang Country.

As a teacher, he lurked in Pontianak City, looking for opportunities to contact Lanfang's senior officials.

However, he stayed in Lanfang for more than a year and found that Lanfang's military and political affairs were controlled by four major families.

Most of the top leaders of the four major families are corrupt and degenerate. They only have family interests in their eyes, and few care about the overall situation of the Chinese overseas.

They used their power to gain benefits for their families and regarded other Chinese as objects of exploitation.

He doesn't care at all about the friendship between his compatriots.

But even in such murky waters there is a stream of clarity.

Huang Wei soon discovered Liu Wei.

This one of the Liu family's talkers, the leader of the Liu family's Green Dragon Legion, still has some righteousness in his heart.

And this middle-aged man does have a good way of leading troops. He trained the Qinglong Legion into the most powerful one among the four legions in Lanfang.

Huang Wei had a great conversation with him and soon became friends.

Liu Wei also learned that Huang Wei was from the Chinese ethnic group.

In order to support Liu Wei, Huang Wei even used the privileges of the ANBU to help Liu Wei purchase many weapons from the Chinese.

"Mr. Huang, you have also seen that the Dutch have too many troops. I am worried that I will be surrounded by them if I don't withdraw. What's more, the military order of the Great Ruler also asked me to withdraw to Dongwanlu."

"Are you still prepared to continue to obey the military orders of that great ruler? He abandoned Pontianak and fled, abandoning your family and the Chinese civilians, allowing them to be wantonly humiliated and massacred by the natives. Such a great ruler

Are you still qualified to rule the entire Lanfang?"

Speaking of this matter, Liu Wei clenched his fists tightly and showed an expression of resentment in his eyes.

"Stop talking, Mr. Huang, the Dutch and the natives should be blamed for this. If I persist for two more hours, if the Chinese army still doesn't come, I will also be responsible for my brothers. The war has just begun.

At the beginning, it’s not yet time for the fish to die and the net is broken.”

Liu Wei is indeed a qualified military commander. Until this time, his understanding of the battlefield was still objective.

On the streets of Singkawang City, the young men of the Blue Dragon Corps were still struggling to resist the attack of the Dutch-Turkish coalition.

The natives rushed forward as if they were desperate, as if they would be able to drive away the Chinese in the next moment.

The Dutch promised them that after wiping out the Lan Fang Kingdom, they would distribute the Chinese land to them.

They have always been jealous in their hearts that the Chinese have so much wealth. Now they can finally take it all away.

The people of Singkawang evacuated early, and they have not grabbed anything so far. Therefore, they are unwilling to give up. They must defeat the Chinese army in front of them.

The Dutch fleet has been docked on the river. The huge battleship is like a giant beast lying on the bay, bringing a huge sense of oppression to the people on the shore.

At this moment, a steam gunboat, blowing out thick smoke, headed towards the port like a long-distance runner gasping for air.

"What, you said it's the Chinese fleet? Are they coming?" When he heard the news from the Chinese fleet, General Oden was still shocked.

They came so quickly.

The attack on Pontianak this time didn't take much time at all. It didn't take them long to reach Singkawang.

Moreover, General Oden had already ordered the blockade of the port in advance, not allowing a single merchant ship to leave the port, and even the ships entering the port were impounded by them.

This time the Dutch made careful plans and took advantage of the unexpected situation on Wansheng Island to catch Lan Fangguo off guard.

With the support of the British, the Dutch took a chance and gambled all their power in Southeast Asia.

"What's supposed to come will come. Let's see what kind of navy these yellow people can build?"

Oden looked at the sky to the north, where he could already see the smoke columns coming out of the battleship's chimney.

The battle with the Chinese Navy was also planned, but it was originally after the capture of Lan Fang Country.

Now the other party just comes earlier than before.

The Dutch fleet in the bay no longer continued to watch the show, but raised its sails and headed for the open sea.

Huge battleships needed battle space to maneuver.

General Oden, commander of the fleet on the flagship "Dutchman", stood in the command cabin, looking ahead through the telescope in his hand.

A large fleet came towards the Dutch in a double column formation.

"Hmph... Just as I was about to go to settle accounts with them, this Chinese fleet actually arrived at my door. Let the fleet sail in a single column to the northeast." Oden ordered.

The warships under his command are all sail warships, and their advantage lies in their broadside firepower.

If you want to exert your firepower, you must form a battle line as a single unit and use intensive firepower to protect yourself and attack the enemy.

However, the battleships of the First Fleet are all steam-powered. After modification, their power is stronger than before.

But most of them are still paddle steamers, and the side of the ship is the weakest point.

On the contrary, the artillery on the battleship was equipped with a turret, so it became more flexible.
To be continued...
