Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 1024

[Chapter 1024 Interlude]

“Your Highness, the people of Stedan call this place Kaliman Island. Now we are located on the west side of Kaliman Island. It only takes a day’s sea journey from here to Malacca.” After the Azure

Dragon Army and the Suzaku Army went south, Zhao Xu stayed in the Siam Imperial City for a few more days, and then went out to sea with Zhou Yi, and arrived at the naval base that was closest to Malacca.

This stronghold used to be the people of Stedam, because now the Western-Turkish Allied Forces are focusing on deploying their forces in Malacca.

Naturally, the strength of the Sterdan people could not withstand the attack of the marines, and the stronghold fell into the hands of the navy.

Later, the navy successively shipped a large amount of supplies here for backup.

“En.” Zhao Xu nodded lightly, he is no stranger to this place.

Java is both contemporary Indonesia.

This country, like Luzon, is not a whole continent, but consists of several islands.

Among the three largest islands, one is Sumatra Island, which is located in the southwest of Kaliman Island, and the other is Java Island, which is located in the southeast and faces Nanzhan Island across the sea.

At present, the Marine Corps has only captured Kaliman Island, and has not taken action against Sumatra and Java Island, which are mainly defended by Stedam.

The reason for this is that Kaliman Island itself is located on the west side of Luzon, only five or six hundred kilometers apart.

The second reason is that Kaliman Island is facing Malacca, and it is perfect as a springboard for attacking Malacca.

At the same time, it is also convenient to transport materials from Luzon to here.

“By the way, the Marine Corps, Qinglong Army and Suzaku Army should be in place. You should also prepare to advance the fleet to Malacca and cooperate with their attack.” After pondering for a while, Zhao Xu said to Zhou Yi.

Supplies are no longer a problem, and the next focus is this decisive battle with the Western Turkmenistan Allied Forces.

In order to support each other, the forces of the West-Turkish Allied Forces were mainly deployed on both sides of the Strait of Malacca.

In this way, the forts on land can support the Xitu navy to resist the Dasong navy.

The warships of the Xitu Navy can also support the armies on both sides of the strait and bombard the Dasong army.

Faced with the deployment of the Western-Turkish Allied Forces, he naturally couldn’t let the other side take advantage of it.

Their navy and army can support each other, and Dasong’s navy and army can also support each other.

“Yes, Your Highness.” Zhou Yi replied yes.

As soon as King Yan opened his mouth, he understood King Yan’s intentions. In fact, he also thought of this.

After two days of preparation, the fleet headed towards Malacca.

This time, they dispatched 30 steamships and 60 sailing warships.

As for the remaining steamships and sailing warships, they were deployed in the eastern waters of Dasong to prevent the Kingdom of Sam from sending out a fleet again from the east.

In order to boost morale, Zhao Xu chose to go with the army. He and Zhou Yi took the flagship of Jinghai and headed for Malacca.

After a day’s voyage, they arrived at the mouth of Malacca.

At this time, Zhou Yi ordered the steam reconnaissance ship to go to the positions of the Marine Corps, Qinglong Army and Suzaku to pass information and orders back and forth.

About half an hour or so, the scout ship returned.

“Your Highness, the Marine Corps is currently stationed twenty miles south of the strait. According to the confessions of the captured prisoners, the Western-Turkish Allied Forces have deployed 40,000 troops and 40,000 indigenous troops to the south.

” Stationed ten miles away, there are 60,000 Western-Turkish coalition soldiers and 80,000 indigenous troops on the north side.” The captain of the scouting ship reported one by one.

Hearing this, Zhao Xu nodded slowly, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

At present, if the indigenous army is deducted, the soldiers of the Western natives are obviously at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and their strength is stretched.

In this era, to fight against him in the east across such a long distance, the people of the west are simply confident.

It can be said that this is entirely due to their arrogance.

After all, they know that the Dasong army is very strong now, but in their hearts, the Dasong army is still a barbaric indigenous army.

That being the case, this time he will give the Western natives an unforgettable memory, let them know that the days of their rampant domineering are gone forever.

“Pass on the king’s order, give them a day to prepare, and launch a full-scale attack tomorrow morning. We will drive the Western natives into the sea to feed the fish!” Zhao Xu said solemnly.

The captain of the reconnaissance ship responded, turned around and disembarked from the flagship.

After a while, one of the two scout ships headed south and the other headed north.

Zhao Xu turned to Zhou Yi again, “You should also prepare. Our naval guns are superior in range and power to the opponent, and we will use them in this war.”

“Yes, Your Highness.” Zhou Yi saluted Zhao Xu. military salute.

at the same time.

When Zhao Xu gave the order, Wesley was standing in the trench fortifications on the coast looking at the battleships on the sea.

Standing beside him was a group of coalition officers, all of them solemn.

The Dasong Army arrived one after another three days ago and is confronting them.

Now the fleet of the Dasong Navy has arrived again.

Dasong’s King Yan put up such a huge battle, and he was determined to go to war with their Western Land Allied Forces.

“Send someone, we are asking for peace talks.” Putting down the binoculars, Wesley said suddenly.

Of course, his purpose is not to really go to peace talks, but to delay the attack.

If Da Song fell for it, he would be more than happy to delay until reinforcements arrived.

The officers naturally knew what Wesley meant.

Not long after, a steamboat came out of the strait and headed towards the Dasong Fleet, but on the way, the ship was intercepted by the steamboat of the Dasong Fleet.

Naval soldiers escorted a British officer onto the ship and sent it to the flagship.

At this time, Zhao Xu was observing the two sides of Malacca, and when he learned of the British officer’s intention, he snorted softly, “Go back and tell your Admiral Wesley, put away the tricks he played as a child, and leave it to him now.” There are only two roads, the first one is for you people in the west to put down your weapons and get out of the east, and the second is for us to beat you to the ground and get out of the east, you choose one of these two.” The

British officer listened At Zhao Xu’s words, his face was red.

After returning to his warship, he returned to Malacca and told Wesley what Zhao Xu had said.

“Da Song Yan Wang came in person?” Wesley exclaimed.

He didn’t expect the officer to meet King Yan in person.

“That’s right, he’s a guy in his twenties with barely any hair, and he’s really arrogant.” The officer was still furious.

Wesley frowned, and murmured, “This is unbelievable. I didn’t expect him to be so young. If Da Song’s current changes are all made by him, then he is terrible.”

Immediately, his thoughts Back to the matter of war.

Thinking of the two paths proposed by King Yan, a surge of anger burned in his heart.

Facing the sea, he shouted, “No one has ever dared to threaten us in Britain. We will not take either of these two roads, but we will take our third road, which is to let the Dasong army be wiped out here!”
