Inside a small tower built by the water,
A hook-nosed, bronze-skinned foreigner sat at a circular desk looking at documents in his hands when there was a knock on the door. Before he could answer, a blonde woman rushed in.
"Your Excellency Prime Minister, there is an urgent matter!"
"Marisa, I think you're becoming more and more unruly, just like you are in bed!"
Lu De glanced up at Marissa, who had already walked to the desk!
"Prime Minister, this is the emergency contact number for Royal Freeport Mining Company in Amterdam. They say there's been an incident in Java and they want to speak to you in person. Their contact, Pearson, is right outside the door!"
Lü De's expression changed slightly.
Royal Freeport Mining is the only multinational mining giant in Windmill Country, and a single word from them can even determine the fate of the prime minister.
Just then, a knocking sounded urgently, and a foreigner in a suit tucked the buttons of his shirt into place.
"Please proceed to step 8!"
Upon hearing this, Pearson walked in and, without waiting for Lü De to greet him, went straight to sit down in front of the desk.
"Your Excellency Prime Minister, our company has lost contact with the Glasberg gold mine in Java!"
Seeing that Lü De's expression had turned serious, Pearson continued,
"I have already sent Sutoha from Java to verify the situation. I hope the Prime Minister can send the navy over!"
at the same time,
Inside an office deep within a white hall resembling the White House in Java.
"They've all lost contact?"
After receiving Pearson's call, Sutoha immediately sent someone to check the situation in New Guinea, and the result...
Not only have warlords like Parani lost contact, but the other seventeen mines on the island of New Guinea have also lost contact!
"Snapped!"
Sutoha swept everything that was placed in front of him onto the ground, leaving behind a large amount of broken glass.
This is money.
This is his lifeline, the very thing that determines whether he secures his position!
He no longer wanted to know who did all this; whoever did it, he wanted them to never return!
"Suhardo, I want you to take all the ships and wipe out the enemy in Nabile Port!"
Sutoha felt like he was about to explode with anger.
"But we should first..."
"No buts!"
"Go right now! Immediately!"
A Javan naval fleet consisting of eight Patchim-class guided-missile frigates and two Fatahira-class frigates is en route to Nabile port.
Captain Suhardo, in charge of the operation, looked at the sea with a serious expression, using binoculars to observe the situation.
He still doesn't know what the goal of this trip is.
All he knew was that the entire army had been wiped out at Nabile and on New Guinea Island. Regardless of who the enemy was, such a record was enough to warrant his attention.
However, his every move was already being observed by Luo Sanpao, and he was about to enter Luo Sanpao's ambush.
The most crucial element for a navy is its equipment. With advanced equipment, you can detect the enemy first and win the battle.
The ten warships from Java were already displayed on the radar screen of the Sherman destroyer, ten bright spots shining.
"Attention all ships, activate radio silence and wait until the enemy is fully within firing range before opening fire!"
Luo Sanpao picked up the walkie-talkie and said calmly.
now,
The constant beeping of radar and various mechanical noises on the Patchim frigate were making Suhardo very irritable.
The sea was unusually calm.
The only sound on the radio monitor was the hissing of electrical current.
There was absolutely nothing unusual on the radar.
He even suspected that the other party had already run away.
Or perhaps Sutoha's intelligence orders were wrong; everything was calm, and there was no sign of the enemy.
"General, we are about to enter the waters off Nabile Port!"
"Didn't the other ships detect anything unusual either?"
"Reporting to the General, all the other captains have reported that there are no abnormalities!"
"Captain Hasselblad also said that the other side is definitely afraid of us!"
Looking across the entire Southeast Asia, Java has the strongest navy and the most advanced ships.
But Suhardo became increasingly uneasy.
at the same time,
Luo Sanpao stared at the dots on the radar, suppressing his excitement. Two more ships were still out of range, and there was one more...
"fire!"
'Boom!' 'Boom!' 'Boom!' ...
At Luo Sanpao's command, all twelve 127mm/54 caliber single-barrel guns on the four Sherman-class destroyers opened fire simultaneously, as did all the guns on the Russian patrol ships!
The entire Javanese naval fleet was under heavy fire.
"Enemy attack!"
Suhardo shouted and grabbed the railing to steady himself.
"Support! Call in air support immediately! The enemy is at our 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions!"
Before he could finish speaking, another round of artillery fire rained down from the sky.
A shell struck the flagship's ammunition depot, instantly causing it to explode.
'Boom!' 'Boom!' 'Boom!' ...
"Quickly, retreat! Retreat!"
'Boom~'
With the next explosion, Suhardo was sent flying into the air along with the entire cabin.
After two rounds of artillery fire,
Of the ten ships belonging to Java, one was sunk, six were severely damaged, and three others suffered varying degrees of damage.
"Let's chase them! Don't let them get away!"
Upon seeing the light spot on the radar retreating, Luo Sanpao immediately gave the order.
"¨々hoo~"
"Da da da da da~"
Luo Sanpao watched as a plane sped past him.
'Boom~'
Then they started dropping bombs again.
"Damn it, their air force arrived so quickly!"
"withdraw!"
Luo Sanpao reluctantly gave the order.
"Ah Pao, you did a fantastic job this time! We'll have our planes soon!"
Li Jun received a satellite phone call from Luo Sanpao, which made him even more anxious; the aircraft and ships had to be produced as soon as possible.
He immediately clicked on the production of Adams-class and Sherman-class destroyers in the naval shipyard panel.
at the same time,
"Four Sherman-class destroyers and four patrol ships?"
Upon hearing the report, Sutoha felt the world spinning around him.
"The opponent is that powerful?"
Sutoha initially thought he had misheard, until news of Suhardo's death and defeat reached him.
"Oh shit!"
He jumped up from his chair, picked up the phone, and immediately had someone contact Windmill Country.
"Pearson, why didn't you say so sooner that the opponent was so strong?"
Do you know how much I lost this time?
