Become a feudal king from today - #938 - Chapter 950 Oliver
“Your Highness, we discovered the Western Turks’ fleet in the southern waters. They were sailing in the direction of Jakarta.”
Just as Zhao Xu settled on Timor Island, a steamship arrived from the south, bringing the detected intelligence.
In order to grasp the situation in Australian waters, Zhou Yi sent eight steamships to survey the nearby waters.
“Their warships are also full of young and strong Westerners.” The general continued.
Zhou Yi frowned when he heard this.
Previously, coal loaded on steamships could not sail very far because supply points had not yet been established.
Therefore, their reconnaissance scope did not extend to the southern waters of Australia.
The Marines captured Timor Island, which had only a hundred or so defenders, and seized the supply point here.
Their supply ships brought coal and grain here from Luzon.
The steamship just expanded its investigation scope, and unexpectedly got this information.
“During this period, the Westerners may have been evacuating the British people from the Australian continent.” Zhou Yi said to Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu thought deeply for a moment and suddenly sneered, “No, this is not an evacuation. They are just replenishing their troops. The people living here are all serious criminals in Britain. Do you think the coalition forces will care about their lives? Furthermore, investigation The ship said that there are only young men on board the warship, which further proves this.”
“So that’s the case.” Zhou Yi understood, “But since then, the Australian continent has become easier to win.”
“Not necessarily. I’m afraid they won’t come to Australia empty-handed. They will definitely give guns and artillery to the British prisoners in Australia to prevent us from taking this place.” Zhao Xu’s eyes narrowed.
After a pause, he said: “Let me tell you, during this landing, the generals must not have any sympathy for the soldiers. They should be treated as Beidi soldiers. Their ferocity is not inferior to that of Beidi. What’s more, they are all soldiers.” Heinous felons and their descendants.”
“Yes, Your Highness.” Zhou Yi responded.
Zhou Yi left, and Zhao Xu looked towards the Australian mainland.
For him, conquering the Australian mainland this time was only slightly more difficult than conquering Luzon.
The only trouble is that they need to spend more time at sea.
As for the places where landing operations are required, there are actually only four places.
These were the four colonial areas established by Britain along the coast.
One is Hedland Territory, just south of Timor Island, located in Western Australia.
The colonial area of Eastern Australia was the Queensland Territory, which was the direction of Gong Ying’s attack.
The remaining two are in the east and west corners of the southern Australian continent.
One is called the New South Wales Territory and the other is the Adelaide Territory.
Among the four colonial areas, Hedland has the smallest population, with only about 80,000 people.
New South Wales has the largest population, with about 250,000 people.
Because of this, he decided to take the Hedland Territory and Queensland Territory first, and finally join forces to attack New South Wales and the Adland Territory adjacent to New South Wales.
…
at the same time.
In New South Wales, a British steamship docked slowly at the port.
A British soldier got off the steamer, handed the collected information to the officer at the port, and left immediately.
After glancing at the document, the officer’s expression changed slightly, and he immediately walked into the city to deliver the news to Governor Oliver.
Because Britain has many colonies overseas.
Therefore, the number of governors sent out by Britain every year is also very large.
These governors had great power in the colonies and had full military and administrative power.
However, even governors have different levels.
For example, Bolt is higher than Oliver in terms of level.
In some matters, Oliver needs to follow Bolt’s orders.
“Governor Oliver, the steamship of the Dasong Navy once approached the Adlan Territory. I’m afraid that the attack from Dasong is not far away.” The officer reported to Oliver.
He is Oliver’s most trusted officer, named Joseph, with the rank of colonel.
“It’s finally here. I’m tired of waiting.” The blond man lying on the leather jacket opposite the officer raised the corners of his mouth, touching the scar on his face, making his whole person look very cold.
He blew out a smoke ring and said nonchalantly, “Bolt, a bitch, was so scared that she wet her pants. This time I want to show you what it means to be a real man.”
“The whole of Britain knows that you, the Governor, are a real man, but the Dasong people don’t seem to be that easy to deal with. After all, they not only defeated Mafuor, but also defeated the Francois in Manila.” Joseph reminded him vaguely. Knowing the governor’s violent temper, he did not dare to directly remonstrate with him.
“This only proves their incompetence. The British Empire has lost all their face.” Oliver was furious. “Let me tell them how to treat these damn Eastern natives.”
After speaking, he picked up a head decoration on the table and threw it to the ground.
With a “pop” sound, the head decoration shattered under Joseph’s feet, and part of it fell on his leather boots.
Joseph shook it off in disgust.
This is not just a decoration, in fact, this skull decoration is made from the head of an Australian Aboriginal girl.
Ten years ago, Oliver, who was still a colonel in New South Wales, led the army to encircle and suppress the indigenous tribes north of the colonial territory.
While he was massacring the aboriginal, the aboriginal girl rushed out and bit off one of his fingers.
And he cut off the girl’s head and made it into a decoration.
It was Oliver’s ferocity that made the people and prisoners in Australia’s four colonial territories fear him like a devil.
Of course, it is also because of this that these desperadoes are so honest under Oliver’s jurisdiction.
“Go and tell everyone, no matter men, women, old or young, as long as they can hold weapons, they must participate in this war. I will stop the victory of the Dasong Army in Australia and prove to our Majesty the Queen that I am Bibol He is more suitable to be the governor of Tianzhu,” Oliver continued to shout.
“Yes.” Joseph turned and left.
During this time, they received a total of 30,000 muzzle-loading rifled guns and 36 field guns.
Of these, 10,000 were sent to the other three colonial territories, leaving most of the firearms in New South Wales.
But even so, most people still have no weapons.
But it doesn’t matter anymore, they are already in this war, and everyone has to fight for Britain.
“Jon and the others should also have gotten the letter. I hope these three boys won’t let me down, otherwise I will crush their heads.” As soon as Joseph arrived at the door, Oliver muttered again.
Joseph stopped for a moment. Jon and the three were his three captains.
They garrisoned the other three colonial territories.
If everything goes well, the Great Song army’s attack on the Australian mainland will start from their colonial territory.
If the three of them can defeat King Yan, or even severely damage Dasong’s army, then this victory is inevitable.
