Just as the People's Army Navy and the Dutch fleet were fighting fiercely on the sea, the landing work on the dock was also underway. After Zhang Zizhang arrived at the dock by speedboat, about 30 minutes later, he took two barges from the dock and docked on the side of the rear side of the Kunming ship. Zhang Zhijun, the son of Zhang Zhenxun, was also with the ship.

It turned out that Zhang Zhijun received a telegram from Zhang Zhenxun, knowing that the East China government's overseas Chinese protection advance fleet arrived in Java this morning and asked him to prepare for the welcome. Although Zhang Zhijun was very strange, even if the overseas Chinese warships set off from Pontianak, they were more than 1,000 kilometers away from Java. Can they be calculated so accurately? In addition, he was very suspicious of how much ability the overseas Chinese have. After all, he was left behind in Batavia and knew little about the news about mainland China. Can he protect the Chinese in Java? However, Zhang Zhijun still followed Zhang Zhenxun's instructions and took dozens of guards to venture out of Batavia City early in the morning and rushed to the dock.

It was 10 o'clock that the overseas Chinese warships were really coming. Although there was only one warship, Zhang Zhijun was quite excited. After all, this was really coming. After Zhang Zizhang got ashore, he briefly told Zhang Zhijun about the general situation. Only then did Zhang Zhijun realize that there were two warships, which were fighting with the Dutch fleet at this time. It seemed that this group of overseas Chinese really had some courage, much stronger than the Qing court.

Moreover, more than 800 soldiers came this time and were about to land, so Zhang Zhijun hurriedly ordered two barges to assist the People's Army in landing.

With these two barges, the landing speed naturally accelerated a lot. Shang Jinfeng estimated that two trips would almost send all the army's personnel and supplies to the dock. When loading the ship, Shang Jinfeng met Zhang Zhijun in the helicopter hangar and had some communication with each other.

Almost an hour later, the first batch of landed soldiers and supplies arrived at the shore of the dock. At this moment, several people came from the farm and informed Zhang Zhijun that an indigenous army was attacking the farm, with a number of thousands of people. The farm was almost unable to support it and needed rescue in urgent need of rescue.

After Zhang Zhijun learned about it, he was very surprised. He knew that the Zhang family was a wealthy man in Southeast Asia, with many industries and wealth that could rival a country, so he naturally attracted the attention of colonists and Javanese natives. Fortunately, Zhang Zhenxun had a good ability to dance. Through various means, including money transactions, he established a good relationship with the Dutch colonial authorities in order to survive and grow in Java. The Dutch colonial authorities also needed wealthy businessmen like Zhang Zhenxun to maintain the economic development and prosperity of the colonial areas.

The Zhang family came to think that the local indigenous people in Lalong were very different from the Dutch colonial authorities. First of all, there were not many Dutch colonists, which was easy to manage. The number of indigenous people was too large, so it was impossible to pull Long one by one. Even most of the Lalong was not able to bear the financial resources of the Zhang family. Moreover, the indigenous people did not have a foresight and would not see the existence of wealthy businessmen like Zhang Zhenxun, which could maintain the long-term prosperity of Java. They only saw the real money in front of them, so for them, it was easier to grab it directly than collect taxes slowly.

However, with the protection of the colonial authorities, although the Zhang family suffered some losses in several anti-Chinese incidents, they did not hurt their muscles. Because it is basically guaranteed in the areas around Batavia City, such as the farms and docks here have not been robbed in the previous anti-Chinese incidents. A few days ago, an indigenous army attacked the farm, but was repelled by the farm guards and workers. Unexpectedly, it came again a few days later. The anti-Chinese situation this time is a bit different from before.

However, Zhang Zhijun Bi Jing is Zhang Zhenxun's eldest son, and he can stand alone in Java. After thinking about it carefully, he will understand a little bit. It turns out that the Zhang family has another big hidden danger in Java, which is that merchants from Europe. With the development of navigation technology and the popularization of globalization, European countries have also changed their previous predatory management of colonies and changed to development-oriented management. Many European merchants set up public enterprises in the colonies and invested in their operations. However, the new companies in the colonies did not want to start from scratch, but instead adopted the practice of seizing local industries, and the colonial authorities would naturally favor European merchants.

The Zhang family has many industries in Java, which naturally aroused the jealousy of many European businessmen. Zhang Zhenxun has sold some industries to European businessmen. Although it is not enough to shake the Zhang family's status at present, this sign has appeared. In recent years, Zhang Zhenxun has devoted much of his energy to the country in order to diversify risks. In addition, he has obtained an official position from the Qing court, which is considered as an additional guarantee.

Just a few months ago, two European businessmen asked Zhang Zhenxun to buy his farm, but were rejected by Zhang Zhenxun. It seems that the farm was attacked by the natives this time, and it is probably not that simple. So Zhang Zhijun immediately rescued Shang Jinfeng, hoping that Shang Jinfeng could mobilize his army to rescue the farm.

Shang Jinfeng naturally would not refuse Zhang Zhijun's request, because the Nei Farm was originally a temporary stronghold for the People's Army to book on Java Island, and the Zhang family is now an ally of the East China government, so there is no reason not to rescue him. In addition, the rescue farm can also be used to show the strength of the East China government to the Zhang family, making the Zhang family feel that the East China government is reliable.

However, only half of the troops landed on the shore, for the two combat companies and machine gun companies. The 82 Mortar Company, the main heavy weapon of the advance troops, was still on the Kunming ship. If you have to wait until the 82 Mortar Company is transported to the shore, it will take at least an hour. In addition, Shang Jinfeng also considered that the farm is only 15 kilometers away from the dock. Since the indigenous people attacked the farm, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not attack the dock again, so they cannot send all the troops that landed on the ashore.

So, after consultation with battalion commander Li Lixin, Shang Jinfeng decided to send the first company on the shore to carry out the task of the rescue farm, and draw a platoon from the machine gun company to act with the company. The rest of the personnel immediately guarded the dock around the dock to prevent the indigenous people from attacking. At this time, the battle at sea had ended, and the People's Army Navy had achieved a perfect victory. Shang Jinfeng also decided to recruit helicopters to participate in the first battle after the landing. Li Lixin decided to leave the battalion instructor Wang Jianhui on the Kunming ship to organize the remaining personnel to land. He and the deputy battalion Qian Guoyu took the two squads of guards to land on the assault boat, and he was responsible for setting up the guards of the docks to defend, and Qian Guoyu was responsible for leading the rescue farm in a company.

In the first division, the crossing soldiers have served as battalion-level officers, while all the first-level officers are local soldiers. Qian Guoyu is sent to lead the team, so it is not because of distrust of the local officers' abilities, but because only the crossing soldiers bring individual radio stations and can communicate with helicopters. Local officers will only temporarily be equipped with individual radio stations when special times.

The assault boat brought Li Lixin, Qian Guoyu, Zhang Zhijun and Zhang Zizhang brothers ashore, and Qian Guoyu immediately recruited and set off. Although Zhang Zhijun was very suspicious whether this army of less than 200 people could repel the indigenous army and rescue the farm, at this time, he could only trust overseas Chinese. So he sent people back to the farm to deliver letters and told the farm to continue to hold on. The rescuers came, and at the same time sent two people to serve as guides for the People's Army.

Wang Xinping and Zheng Zongming took off from the Kunming ship in a helicopter and flew towards the farm according to the map. The distance of 15 kilometers is a few minutes for the helicopter's speed. Therefore, the helicopter not only quickly passed the People's Army troops that were also marching along the avenue, but also saw a large area of ​​neat crop land in front of them. In the middle of these crops, there is a castle-like building covering an area of ​​about a hundred acres, and there is a circle of walls around it. It is indeed a battle that is going on that looks more like a street fight.

The reason why it is said to be like a street fight is because both sides of the battle basically have no rules. The attacking party basically rushes around the wall, and the defense party is almost the same. Therefore, the whole scene seems to be dense, like an ant. However, since the helicopter's flight altitude was above 1,000 meters at this time, there are many details that are not clearly seen with the naked eye.

郑宗明笑道:“这是打群架吗?”

Wang Xinping said: "What's so strange about this? They are not professional troops. Can you expect them to have any good performances? Enlarge the camera to see."

Zheng Zongming immediately enlarged the picture on the display screen, and we can see the details clearly. First of all, there are obvious differences in the clothing of both sides. The people guarding the castle are mostly the clothing of the Qing court. Most of them still have braids, while the clothing of the attackers has obvious Southeast Asian characteristics, and a small number of people are wearing leather armor or something similar to rattan armor; the weapons used by both sides are basically cold weapons such as long spears and big swords, and there are also a small number of muskets.

The method of siege is to build old wooden ladders to climb the wall; in terms of the number of people, the attacking side is obviously more, but although the defense side has a wall to rely on, it is already at a clear disadvantage. The battle has spread along the wall. There are still several walls that have been disrepaired or have been knocked down, revealing several large gaps. Some attackers have already advanced into the yard. If there is no rescue, the castle will probably not last long.

At this time, Zheng Zongming said: "Old Wang, look over there, it should be the leader of this group of natives."

Wang Xinping followed the direction of his finger and looked through the helicopter window. Sure enough, he saw about a hundred people gathering on a small hill about 1,000 meters away from the castle, and there seemed to be more than a dozen flag-like things. When he turned the camera, he found that the clothes and decorations of this group were obviously different, and he seemed to be much more respectful. There were more than a dozen people sitting, as if chatting and laughing. Therefore, it can be concluded that this group of people must be extraordinary.

Zheng Zongming said: "Old Wang, let's fly over and give them a cannon and kill them all. This group of mobs should be dispersed, so there is nothing left for the army."
