Chapter 1035

September 3.

On the sixth day of the order, a team of 1000 people set out from Wales to escort the explorers of the Department of minerals to New Guinea.

At the same time, Lei Ming led 8000 people to Indonesia in 10 warships, where there was a British occupied city named Newland.

This city used to belong to the Dutch. Since it was occupied by the British, the hundred Li distance around Newland has been the British sphere of influence.

His mission here is to control Newland. According to the information raised by the imperial court, the reason why the British did not hesitate to fight with the Dutch to seize Newland is not aimless.

Because there is a very rich gold deposit in the Newland area. According to the information provided by the Department of minerals, Indonesia is rich in mineral resources, especially coal, tin, aluminum, nickel, copper, gold, silver and other minerals. As for how the Department of minerals explored it, he did not know or dare to ask.

After all, for people of this level, the mineral department is as mysterious as the secret guard. Everyone who enters the mineral Department has a clean background, and it is difficult to explore the secret.

And those who don't have long eyes and want to spy on the minerals department have no good end in the end.

"If you control this area, the steamships that the Empire will sail in this area will not worry about no supplies in the future."

Thunder looked at the heavily guarded city of Newland, and when they landed, they were found by the British in the city.

However, the strict security of the British people is not worth mentioning in his view, because the British firearms are not a generation away from them now.

Chang Yuzhu is more interested in gold mines, he said: "commander, if we take this gold mine, this time we can take a lot of meritorious points, I can buy a manor when I return home."

The soldiers are also very excited. One of the reasons why they can continue to fight overseas is their loyalty to the Empire, and the other is the army's constant incentive policy.

Thunder mouth with a smile, he said: "in this case, then fight this battle pretty, can not die people will not die."

Chang Yuzhu nodded. He pointed to the machine gun and said, "with this thing, the British are scared to death. Commander, you can wait to see the results."

Having said that, Chang Yuzhu went to the artillery and communicated with them for a while. Then he discussed the attack strategy with the plane gunners and ordinary soldiers.

After a while, thirty-six guns roared in unison, and the fierce fire immediately covered the gate of Newland.

Just for a moment, Newland's gate collapsed.

In the city, the British garrison has long been in a state of panic. Since the defeat of the United Fleet and the occupation of Singapore, they have been living in the haze of war.

Now they've won the nightmare.

"What the hell is this?"

The great power of metal shell explosion made the British soldiers in the city fear to the extreme. They had never seen such a powerful gun.

Because the whole city gate was almost torn apart, which even their most advanced artillery could not do.

But they can't think about it. After the city gate was destroyed, the attack of shells didn't stop. One shell roared past the city, hitting the city. Every explosion, there was always a huge crater on the ground.

Around the crater is the forbidden area of life, and no soldier can survive in this area.

There were only 5000 British troops stationed in Newland. After a series of heavy bombing, the British troops in the city were killed.

This was only the first weapon to scare them. After the artillery stopped firing, they heard the bugle of the enemy charging.

At this time, the surviving British soldiers on the wall immediately prepared to fight back, but they just looked up and suddenly heard "daddada..." In the middle of a sustained fire.

Before they could react, they fell into a pool of blood, and the Gunners on the wall were even more miserable. They were the focus of machine gun care.

Every time the soldiers tried to use artillery to counterattack, they were always killed by the continuous firing of the other side's muskets. It can be said that the whole British army was under pressure and couldn't lift its head at all.

The voice of the charge was getting closer and closer, and the British forces in the city had to give up the city and enter the city to prepare for a bloody battle with the enemy.

But once again they miscalculated. After the soldiers with rifles entered the city, the soldiers with strange guns came next.

The soldiers who rushed to the Empire in dense formation fell down under the machine gun fire. Then, with the power of the machine gun, the imperial soldiers entered the streets and alleys in teams of 12 to destroy the British soldiers.

The sound of grenade explosion was ringing from time to time.

Under such a fierce offensive, Britain did not hold out for long. Even the army with strict records could not sustain the one-sided war for long. An hour later, the British officers in the city led the remaining 1000 people to surrender to thunder.

"General, it must be true that there are gold mines here, you see." After thunder entered the city, Chang Yuzhu came excitedly, and the soldiers behind him were carrying three boxes.

Glancing at the wooden box, thunder had a worry in his heart. He asked the soldiers to open it, and suddenly a box of yellow and Orange gold bricks appeared in front of him."According to governor Newland, they are preparing to transport three boxes of BRICs to India and then from India to Britain.

After a pause, he took out a map, "this is also what we found. These British people explored many areas, on which they found mineral sites."

Lei Ming took a look and said with a strong smile, "this thing is more important than gold mine. There are 13 mineral spots on it."

After that, he looked at governor Newland, who was squatting on the ground with his head in his arms, and said, "I'll take care of this drawing for you. If there are other good things to hand in now, you can suffer less, or you'll have to suffer."

Governor Newland was frightened by the Imperial Artillery and machine guns. He said, "I have an important information for you, but only if you let our family go first."

Thunder frowned, "you have no room for bargaining. If I am not a trustworthy person, even if I release your family, I can still arrest them again."

"All right." Governor Newland was disappointed when he handed a letter from England to thunder.

Taking out the letter, the translator said, "commander, the letter says that the political situation in the Netherlands has changed because of the pressure from France. The former prime minister has been ousted. Now there is a new prime minister in the Netherlands. Now the Dutch have compromised with Britain and France. They are ready to fight against the Empire together in Asia."

With a frown of thunder, he said, "this news is too important. Send it back to Qingzhou at once, and let the warships and troops sailing in the southeast wary of the Dutch."
