Chapter 255: Mooring at five nautical miles

Li Ningyu naturally knew a lot about Kong Xiaoping's character and temperament, but he was not prepared to explain anything to him immediately. Instead, after blowing out a puff of smoke, he said in a natural tone: "Xiaoping, how much do you know about Indonesia? Tell me.

Listen!".

Li Ningyu's strange words made Kong Xiaoping very puzzled, but he still replied calmly: "Well, okay! Indonesia, also known as the Dutch East Indies and Indonesia, is one of the countries in Southeast Asia.

Indonesia is a country composed of tens of thousands of islands. It is the largest archipelago in the world and is also called the country of a thousand islands. Indonesia’s territory spans Asia and Oceania!”.

After talking about the basic situation in Indonesia, Kong Xiaoping was about to stop, but he heard Li Ningyu say: "Not bad, continue!".

After Kong Xiaoping nodded, he continued: "As early as around the third to seventh centuries AD, there were many small kingdoms and tribes distributed in Indonesia. Around the beginning of the twelfth century, Java was established. In the history of Indonesia,

The most powerful ruler, at the end of the twelfth century, Indonesia became rich in the international trade of spices, but at that time, a delegation sent by Kublai Khan of the Yuan Dynasty, and then the Mongolian naval fleet landed in Indonesia!".

"After years of fighting, the Mongolian navy did not succeed in conquering Indonesia. Finally, Kublai Khan's successor announced the withdrawal of the Mongolian army. During the Ming Dynasty, Zheng He passed through the Indonesian region during his voyages to the West and carried out operations in the Malacca region.

Diplomatic activities with Indonesia!”

"In the early 16th century, European maritime pioneers arrived and discovered Indonesia. However, at that time, Indonesia was a small country. Finally, European powers began to establish colonies in Indonesia. The Netherlands was one of the countries that occupied the largest area among the European powers.

, but in the beginning, the Netherlands only ruled the Indonesian region through the Dutch East India Company. At the end of the 18th century, the East India Company was disbanded and the Dutch colonial government took over, which was later collectively known as the Dutch East Indies!"

"Okay, okay! It seems you know a lot about Indonesia. It seems you know more than I do!"

After hearing Li Ningyu's praise, Kong Xiaoping blushed and seemed embarrassed, but after a moment of silence, he still looked up and explained to Li Ningyu: "Master, actually I didn't know much about Indonesia before.

Mainly because I was in the command room just now, and that boy Zheng Long told me a lot about Indonesia, so wasn’t he learning naval knowledge during this time, so naturally I took note of it carefully!”

To be honest, after hearing Kong Xiaoping's answer, Li Ningyu couldn't help being surprised. But at the same time, Li Ningyu had a comprehensive understanding of Kong Xiaoping's character. To be honest, Li Ningyu originally

Kong Xiaoping was promoted because of his amazing words and his far-sightedness in military equipment. However, Li Ningyu was still a little dissatisfied with Kong Xiaoping's character. He was sometimes too easy-going, but fortunately, as long as it was a war,

Together, Kong Xiaoping will become a mighty general.

But today, Kong Xiaoping was able to tell the truth that didn't even need to be told in such a situation between two people. This made Li Ningyu very impressed. Then he patted Kong Xiaoping on the shoulder with a smile and said: "Xiaoping,

You are too humble. In fact, any knowledge, even if others are willing to teach us, requires us to have a love of learning. So whether it is the knowledge I tell you or the knowledge Zheng Long tells you, as long as you learn it, you can use it.

Okay! That’s your own knowledge!”.

"As the saying goes, when three people are together, there must be a teacher, so when we are together, we learn from each other. You are not stealing other people's fruits, but using the knowledge properly!" After hearing Li Ningyu's words, Kong Xiaoping's cheeks still remained.

He was a little red, but his mood had calmed down a lot, and he had begun to absorb what Li Ningyu had just said. However, at this time, Li Ningyu was thinking about another question, which was why this kid Zheng Long was so familiar with the situation in Indonesia.

At this moment, Li Xihua, who had just returned to the command room to send a telegram, came over and handed the telegram in his hand to Li Ningyu. After seeing the telegram, Li Ningyu's expression changed, and he held it with his right hand.

Li Ningyu raised his chin and seemed to start thinking. When he saw Li Ningyu making such an action, Li Xihua, who had followed Li Ningyu for the longest time, couldn't help but feel horrified, because he knew that Li Ningyu generally did not lift his chin easily unless he encountered someone.

event.

But is it really that complicated to just dock at Belawan Port in Indonesia?

Li Xihua had already read the entire contents of the telegram handed over to Li Ningyu, and naturally knew what it meant. However, Kong Xiaoping on the side did not know, so he asked Li Xihua softly, while the two of them whispered in their ears.

After that, Li Ningyu threw the cigarette butt in his hand into the sea, and then immediately strode towards the command room of the battleship Yiyang.

Li Xihua and Kong Xiaoping followed closely, but they still didn't understand something. In fact, there was nothing strange in the content of the telegram. It was just that the commander of the Dutch Asia Fleet, Mousny, told the Far East Fleet that it could enter Bela.

Bay seaport, and will help the Far East repair ships.

However, the commander of the Dutch Asia Fleet, Mousny, seemed to be afraid of something, so he added something at the end of the message, that is, he hoped that the Far East warships that would operate normally should not sail into Belawan for the time being.

Although there is nothing wrong with such a sentence, it is not an ordinary sentence in Li Ningyu's eyes.

It can be said that in Asia, there are only two opponents in the Far East who can compete with him. One is Tsarist Russia in the north, and the other is British India in the west. And the Netherlands, which has long been in decline, dares to say nothing to Li Ningyu.

Entering the harbor allowed Li Ningyu, who originally wanted to cause some trouble, to find a breakthrough. So after he returned to the command room of the battleship Yiyang, he immediately started studying the charts with everyone else.

At this time, because he added a seemingly unimportant sentence, the commander of the Dutch Asia Fleet, Mousny, who had actually caused an uproar, was still waiting for a reply from the Far East. However, the telegram he received again was not a reply from the Far East Fleet.

It is a declaration of war from the Far East Fleet!

This incident was actually just a misunderstanding, because for a long time, warships from the Far East generally did not dock at Indonesian seaports, and there was little interaction between the Far East and the Netherlands.
