Chapter 166

Just as the western fleet of the Spanish Far East Revenge Fleet was heading towards Sumatra, the Third Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Ming Dynasty was sailing dozens of nautical miles ahead of the Nicobar Islands and the Andaman Islands. All the dwarf blacks and other natives on the two archipelagos were driven to concentration camps. Among them, the dwarf blacks were unable to use even simple tools such as shovels because of their low civilization level. They could not even count the numbers above three and had no use value at all. Therefore, most of them were exterminated. A few ethnic groups with more contact with the outside world and higher level of civilization were incorporated into the camp as free labor.

These short blacks may have been one of the earliest people who left the African continent. They marched along the coastline and finally entered Tasmania, Australia, and were widely distributed throughout Southeast Asia and even the East Asian continent. Later, the ancestors of the yellow race came here and wiped out all the short blacks with poor physical and intellectual abilities. After Zhu Haitao received the traces of short blacks in the Andaman Islands, he ordered them to be exterminated without hesitation. Because this was what his ancestors did, these short blacks were too backward and occupied an important strategic location. If they did not contact the outside world, they would have to attack the Ming army behind their civilization, so there was no need to exist.

These archipelagos can be said to be outposts entering the Strait of Malacca. As long as these archipelagos are in the hands of the Ming Dynasty, the South China Sea will rest assured.

Now many hot air balloon observation stations have been set up on the archipelago, and a large number of turrets have been started to be built in order to prepare for future combat.

This is still the closest place to the British Indian colony. If the Ming Dynasty continues to expand, it will definitely collide with the interests of Britain. This is the period of the rise of Britain's national strength. At the same time, Britain also launched the first industrial revolution, and its national strength has developed rapidly. Now it has lost the most important thirteen state colonies in North America due to the independence of the United States. The next step will definitely pay more attention to India's colonies. For this reason, the Ming Kingdom must be fully prepared to achieve it.

"I really don't know where these Spanish people went? Logically speaking, they should have arrived here? But why did we have a parade and have not found their traces yet?" Sun Fugui, the commander of the Third Fleet, muttered to himself with a telescope in his hand. According to the information conveyed by the Jinyiwei, the western fleet of the Spanish Far East Revenge Fleet has now left Colombo. If we estimate based on the lowest speed, they should have come to this sea area, but Sun Fugui led the fleet to patrol along the Andaman Islands and the Nicobar Islands for several rounds, but no trace of the Spanish fleet was found.

Sun Fugui made several more parades that day, but he had not found any trace of the Spanish fleet. He returned to the port on the Andaman Islands that night to replenish supplies.

In the early morning of August 6, 1782, the Spanish Far East Revenge Fleet, under the command of Admiral Ricardo Delante, slowly approached the Dabaduon on Sumatra. There were few reefs here and there were sparsely populated ones, so Admiral Ricardo Delante was preparing to carry out the login operation here.

The 35,000 Spanish army was divided into fifteen infantry regiments, ten artillery regiments and a special cavalry regiment of 2,500. On August 6, on a transport ship, they began to land. The infantry regiments that had already landed began to use force to clear out the surrounding villages. The people living here are all Malay Green Cultists, all of whom belong to the Sultanate of Aceh. They have lived here for hundreds of years and have never seen such a powerful armed force, so they were soon wiped out by the Spanish army. A few people fled to the outside world and spread the news of the attack on the Spanish.

In the following days, the Spanish army landed on Sumatra one after another, while the Spanish fleet moved to the vicinity of Nias, where the Spanish built a simple port and planned to escape from the Ming Navy here.

Aladdin Mohammed Saiya, the Sultan of the Sultanate of Aceh, is the 28th generation of sultans since the founding of the Sultanate of Aceh. Now he is in his thirties and is in his prime. He is also ambitious and wants to expand the glory brought to him by his ancestors.

However, the age he lived was completely different from the age he lived in. The Dutch colonists had completely occupied the southeastern part of Sumatra and also occupied the southern part of the Malay Peninsula. The Aceh Sultanate's national strength was greatly reduced due to many conflicts with the Dutch colonists and disputes within the Sudan. It was completely impossible for Aladdin Mohammed Saiya to expand.

The Dutch were miraculously defeated overnight and quickly evacuated from Sumatra Island, which gave him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He personally led his troops to attack some of the strongholds in the border areas where the Dutch were originally stationed. He quickly occupied these places, but before long, the troops of the Ming Kingdom came over, claiming that the Sultanate of Aceh was provoking the Sultanate of the Ming Kingdom and recovered these strongholds within a few hours. The Sultan also personally led his troops to reinforce, but as soon as he came into contact, the strong combat effectiveness of the Ming Army caused the Sultanate of Aceh to lose more than 50% of the troops. The Sultan had to escape back in a panic, and he was seriously ill due to fear, and he had only recovered recently.

But today, on August 15th, some news that was dozens of kilometers away made his fragile heart rise into his throat again.

"Your Majesty, something big is wrong! Something big is wrong! Let me go quickly. I have something urgent to meet His Majesty Sultan!" On this day, the official who passed the message also broke into the palace in Banda Aceh, the capital of the Sultanate of Aceh, so anxious that he ignored the etiquette and law, he wanted to meet the Sultan.

Sultan Aladdin Mohammed Saiya heard the sound outside the palace and felt clever. He quickly asked the officials to come in and explain to him what had happened.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong! Just a few days ago, a group of red-haired ghosts and golden-haired ghosts landed on our territory with war horses, cannons and firearms! They slaughtered many villages and are heading towards the capital!" The official said anxiously.

"What? How many of them are there? When did they set out?" said Aladdin Mohammed Saiya.

"It should be seven days ago, maybe earlier. I don't know how many people they have. Anyway, they are so powerful that they can't see at a glance!" said the official.
