It was already dark at this time, so Liu Yiming could only walk in the dark. The night in the tropical rainforest was full of dangers. Fortunately, Liu Yiming walked on roads. Even so, it was already two or three in the morning when he arrived in Surabaya.

Liu Yiming hurried to the Chen family in Surabaya, where the heads of various families in Surabaya were waiting anxiously. From time to time, someone stretched out his head to see if Liu Yiming was here.

"Come, come, come back!" Yang Wenjie poked his head and saw Liu Yiming coming in a hurry.

The hall was filled with excitement, and everyone rushed to Liu Yiming.

"Uncles, don't panic, the sun is hanging wherever it is, the sky won't fall!" Liu Yiming said soothingly first.

The group entered the hall and sat down, looking eagerly at Liu Yiming. Chen Jiangtao first asked: "Yiming, how is the team training?" His tone was full of expectation.

"Uncle Chen, everything is going well. It's smoother than expected. Everyone can understand the conversation. Everyone has learned how to shoot." Liu Yiming did not report his worries directly.

"Uncle Chen, what happened to the natives? Tell me. If you want to fight, you still need detailed information." Liu Yiming asked instead.

"Yesterday morning, the spies sent out saw that the Hassan tribe did not hunt or offer sacrifices. Instead, they sent many people out and scattered around. In the afternoon, some people who obviously did not belong to the Hassan tribe came in and out."

"That's when the spy felt something was wrong. When he came back to report, we couldn't come up with any ideas, so we let you come back. As long as it goes well, we won't have to be afraid of the natives anymore!" Chen Jiangtao felt quite proud.

"How long will it take for the natives to take action?" Liu Yiming asked again.

"Well..., the natives are scattered, and the Hassan tribe wants to gather the surrounding natives. It will take three to five days to gather the natives. It takes a day or two to balance the conflicts among the tribes, and it must take five days anyway!" Chen Jiangtao was a little confused.

Not sure.

Liu Yiming frowned, thought for a while, and said to Chen Jiangtao.

"Currently, I have more than 700 people under my command. They have all fired 20 rounds of bullets and have four cannons. There is no problem in defeating the indigenous people. There is no problem in occupying the city and defending it!" Liu Yiming said in the words "occupy the city and defend it"

accentuated.

Everyone present was not brainless. They immediately understood what Liu Yiming meant. The Dutch were the enemy, and the Dutch would not let other armed forces take charge of city defense.

"Yiming, is there any other way?" Chen Jiangtao asked tremblingly.

"Yes. And I can guarantee that I can at least scare the natives so that they don't dare to act rashly!" Liu Yiming said firmly. At this time, the people in the hall had lost their confidence, and Liu Yiming wanted to give them the final confidence!

"But Uncle Chen, our enemies have never been natives!" Liu Yiming said loudly in the hall.

There was still silence in the hall, no one said a word.

"Even after this time, as long as the Dutch are still there, as long as they want, they can launch a native uprising at any time, and even end up with the Dutch themselves!"

"Are you silent, are you afraid? Or are you trying to get lucky?" Liu Yiming said.

"Not to mention too much, if we want to get through this, once the guns in our hands are exposed, will the Dutch sit back and watch?"

"I'm afraid that as soon as we defeated the natives with our front foot, the coastal fort opened fire on us with our rear foot."

"Our only way to survive is to drive away the Dutch!" After finishing speaking, Liu Yiming looked at Chen Jiangtao.

"To put it lightly, the Dutch are no better than the natives. Can we win?" said a middle-aged man in the corner of the hall.

"Well said, if you want to fight, you have to win. The Dutch are not invincible. They have lost to the British, the French, and Zheng Chenggong. Why should we be afraid of him? Extending your head is just a knife, and shrinking is just as good.

The head is also a knife. Why not take a gamble?"

"I am 50% sure that I can win Surabaya!" Liu Yiming said excitedly.

"Go ahead and do it!" Chen Jiangtao responded.

"We have been bullied for too long, and we are old. When something happens, we just want to hide away if we can, and if we can't hide, we will lose money to eliminate the disaster. But today is different. People not only want money, but also life!"

"Let it go and do it. No matter what the result is, it's better than sitting around and waiting for death!" Chen Jiangtao looked around and said to Liu Yiming.

………………

After the Chen family meeting, Liu Yiming obtained the command and dispatch authority in Surabaya, and all Chinese and Chinese materials were uniformly deployed. Liu Yiming quickly asked each family to once again gather all highly educated talents. Order the barracks, everything is business as usual!

After that, Liu Yiming went to rest and slept for three hours. At about eight o'clock, Charles came.

"Liu, we have received news that the Dutch are going to take action. How is your plan going?" Charles was a little anxious. He didn't want Liu Yiming to be defeated in one attack, or at least cause harm to the Dutch.

"It went very well. I can already control all the Chinese forces in Surabaya. Victory is in sight!" Liu Yiming said with a chuckle.

"Well, I wish you good luck. I'm here to tell you two pieces of bad news. The first one has already been told to you, and the second one is that we are leaving," Charles said.

"So soon?" Liu Yiming had already been mentally prepared, and in his plan, the British had to leave!

"Yes, the ship has been repaired and supplies are complete. We need to return to port. I wish you good luck, my dear friend." Charles held it in for a long time, and it was obvious that he was a little emotional.

"Bon voyage my friend, this time is very special. I have to deal with a lot of things now, otherwise my life will be in danger. I look forward to seeing you next time!" Liu Yiming sighed and said.

"I'm looking forward to it too. May God bless you!" Charles said and left.

In the afternoon, the instructors also left. Fortunately, at least they were able to fire a gun, and a few of them also learned how to aim the artillery.

It was also the afternoon, and all the Chinese glass workshops and blacksmith shops in the entire Surabaya Port were operating at full capacity. Now everyone knew that the city had been sealed, and the natives were about to attack the city. After having a backbone, most people could panic

of doing things.

At this time, in the inner city of Surabaya, where the Dutch lived, the supreme commander of Surabaya, Major Henry Bruno, was talking to the Surabaya political officer.

"It seems that those yellow monkeys already know it. They move very loudly and are very nervous." The administrative officer said.

"It doesn't matter, they can't come in, let alone run away. When the natives rush in, all their wealth will be ours!" Henry didn't care much.

I hope so... the Administrative Officer thought in his heart.

At night, the weather was a bit sultry, which was a sign of rain. Liu Yiming stayed at the underground production base, which restarted production! And after adding more equipment and manpower, production increased.

Sure enough, it rained that night, but it was not heavy rain, but light rain. After a while, the rain stopped and the moon came out, but the weather was still very dull.

On the first day after the meeting, the sun came up, and everyone was working in an orderly manner according to the plan, producing, training, asking for information, and everything else.

On the second day, the sun was shining brightly and the storm did not come. This island in the southern hemisphere near the equator seemed to have escaped disaster.

It was also the second day. Liu Yiming went to the camp again. This time he was reorganizing before the battle. He selected the seven squads with the best grades to form a reinforced platoon. The remaining nine guns were strengthened and given to the artillery. Others were issued

Spear.

On the third day, Liu Yiming decided to start right away, so that he could beat the Dutch by a little time.

During this time, the Dutch had mobilized nearly 200 people into the inner city. There were only more than 100 guards in the barracks outside the city. However, there were fortification obstacles and forts. Outside the inner city, there were more than 300 colonial troops on the shore.
