"His Governor...His Governor..."

"Call the doctor, hurry up... hurry up..."

...

There was a chaos in the Governor's Mansion of Batavia.

When Lin Chunhong heard that hundreds of warships were sent by Lin Chunhong to Batavia, Anthony was furious and did not breathe evenly, and directly spit out blood.

All subordinates, including Naz, were in panic, not sure whether they were panic for the enemy fleet that was close to them or for the health of the Governor.

Natsu took a quick step and jumped forward, holding Anthony who was about to fall. Anthony coughed several times, and bloody foam splashed out from his mouth, splashing on Natsu's body.

"Eight three-deck warships, one of them does not fall. Natsu, what should I do?" Anthony wiped the corners of his mouth with his hand, and half of his face dyed red with blood, looking extremely ferocious, like a demon who had just crawled out of hell.

Naz had no intention of evading, patted Anthony's back with his hand and kept comforting: "Governor General, there are still tens of thousands of warriors in Batavia City, and the city walls are newly built, as solid as a god. With the number of people he sent, there will be no return!"

Thinking of Batavia's strong city defense, Anthony put a little snack and regretted: "This is a strategy, a cunning pagan, the eight ships of Dingyuan did not reach Shuangyu at all. We were deceived by Zheng Zhilong! Zheng Zhilong, this bastard, will definitely go to hell!"

Speaking of Zheng Zhilong, Naz was shocked and said in a daze: "Governor General, Zheng Zhilong lied to us. Maybe this is a drama that Zheng Zhilong and Lin Chunhong jointly directed. In this way, the Fan Luya fleet is in danger! With the joining forces of Lin Chunhong and Zheng Zhilong, where will Fan Luya have a chance to survive?"

Anthony felt sad, and felt extremely frustrated, and he had to vomit it out to feel better. Sure enough, his body was extremely impressed. Anthony coughed violently, and a mouthful of blood gushed out again, and all spit it on Natsu's white robe.

The blood slowly penetrated along the lines of the robe, as if it was dyed with beautiful flowers, extremely sad and beautiful.

After spitting out the second mouthful of blood, Anthony's heart was obviously much more relaxed, and his head suddenly calmed down and became extremely sensitive. He pointed at Natsu and laughed: "I thought you were calmer than me, but I didn't expect you to be scared more ruthless! Zheng Zhilong and Lin Chunhong are unlikely to collude with each other. Otherwise, what should Lin Chunhong send the main fleet to Batavia for thousands of miles? Just wait quietly in the nest and attack Fan Luya with Zheng Zhilong."

Naz was extremely upset and slapped his head and said, "It's all because of his subordinates' nonsense that made the governor vomit blood."

"It's okay." Anthony waved his hand, "Hundreds of warships are close at hand, and the most important thing at the moment is to deal with the threat. You are right, Batavia's city is strong and there are many coastal artillery batteries. If Lin Chunhong is wholeheartedly attacking Batavia, both sides will inevitably suffer losses. The ultimate benefit is Zheng Zhilong. I guess Lin Chunhong should not be so kind and let Zheng Zhilong take advantage. Lin Chunhong's purpose should not be Batavia, so where should it be?"

After saying that, Anthony calmed down and let the doctor who came urgently check his body.

After the doctor left, Anthony obviously had planned everything and said resolutely: "Immediately send Ruth to lead the remaining fleet to the Karimata Strait to monitor the enemy fleet. If there is any situation, report it immediately!"

...

Rus immediately led the remaining fleet out of the Batavia port, followed the wind, and headed straight towards the Karimata Strait like an arrow.

When Rus barely arrived at the Strait, he happened to meet the special mixed fleet led by Di Wei and Liang Feng.

It is known in history that the first contact war in the Battle of Karimata officially broke out. Although it was enshrined in the name of naval battle, it was not fierce at all. Liang Fengchu discovered the Dutch fleet and immediately ordered the main force of the fleet to rush up fiercely. Both the firepower and the number of warships in the Dutch left-behind fleet were very different. Once they were in contact, their troops were ashamed and fled in a hurry.

However, the Dutch were still brave. Although they were not strong enough, they followed the special fleet and monitored them all the way. Liang Feng was so upset that he sent troops to expel them several times. However, the Dutch relied on the small flexibility of the ship and kept circling with Liang Feng, which made Liang Feng helpless.

After several times, Liang Feng was too lazy to care about the Dutch again, so he accelerated the special fleet to move south.

After the Special Mix fleet passed through the Karimata Strait, it adjusted its fleet's course and aimed directly at Semarang. This obviously relieved the Dutch left-behind fleet and quickly sent the information to the Governor General of Batavia.

"Do you want to go to Semarang?"

Anthony was just angry and squirted blood. The doctor's level was obviously good. Anthony had recovered, his face no longer pale, and he had a little blood.

After receiving Ruth's report, he breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Natsu with a puzzled look, and then said, "Oh, God bless you, I'm afraid that only God can understand what these pagans are thinking."

Naz was also puzzled and said stutteringly: "Is Lin Chunhong afraid of our strength in Nanyang, just wanting to establish a stronghold in Semarang? Gradually encroach on the Matalan Sultanate?"

Anthony shook his head and said, "This is impossible. A stronghold cannot satisfy Lin Chunhong's appetite at all. Take Luzon Island for example. After the Spanish withdrew from Luzon Island, Lu Shiyuan sold slaves on the island. The slave trade was profitable. Even we couldn't help but be moved and sold the slaves captured on Java to Manila. At the same time, Lu Shiyuan tried his best to introduce people from the Ming Dynasty. He did this clearly because he wanted to turn the entire Luzon Island into the land of the Ming Dynasty. How could he do the same as half of the territory?"

Natsu said: "So, Lin Chunhong has such thoughts about Java?"

"Yes." Anthony nodded and said, "So, Lin Chunhong will never turn a blind eye to Batavia. Attack is inevitable. From this point of view, Lin Chunhong's purpose is already very clear, which is to establish a solid stronghold in Semarang and then plan to attack Batavia from land."

"But Semarang belongs to the Matalan Sultanate, so Lin Chunhong is not worried about being strongly resisted there?"

Anthony rubbed his forehead and said with a bitter face: "Who knows what they want to do? What is certain now is that there are more than 30 hidden troop transport ships in the special mixed fleet, and Lin Chunhong sent at least 20,000 troops. This is definitely a huge threat to Batavia, and we have to be extremely careful."

Naz disagreed and curled his lips and said, "Don't forget that it's rainy season now. From Semarang to Batavia, the journey is long. I see those pagans first pass through this dense forest and defeat the snakes and insects in the dense forest!"

Anthony worried: "What if Lin Chunhong's fleet blocked Batavia?"
