"Damn it! This is the Java Sea! How could those yellow monkey navals appear here?" Claire, the captain of the battleship "Alk" exclaimed! The sudden appearance of the New China Navy instantly turned them from hunters to prey!

"Sir! What should we do now? The three 'shark-class' warships, just one of our fifth-class warships and one sixth-class warships, are not their opponents at all!" asked a low-level officer. After Xinhua defeated Spain, the strength of the Xinhua Navy was also spread. The warships with very abnormal speed and naval gun range of the Xinhua Navy have attracted great attention from all countries. Most of the time, the 'shark-class' cruiser will become the nemesis of the naval warships of Western countries. They can't fight, chase and catch up, and are always in a passive state of being beaten, which will undoubtedly make people feel frustrated and crazy!

"Stop attacking the merchant ships of Xinhua Kingdom!" Major Claire ordered. In fact, his order was completely redundant. After the emergence of three "shark-class" cruisers of the Xinhua Kingdom Navy, the Dutch Navy had involuntarily stopped the attack. Attacking the merchant ships of Xinhua Kingdom under the noses of the Xinhua Kingdom Navy, isn't this blatant provoking the Xinhua Kingdom? What's the difference between this and seeking death?

"Sir! The Xinhua Navy is accelerating towards us! Otherwise, let's run away! When they get closer, we can't even run away!" A low-level officer suggested. The information obtained by the Dutch Navy is that each of the new warships of the Xinhua Navy can defeat a Western third-class battleship. The three "shark-class" cruisers are not something their two warships can handle.

Major Claire's face was unstable. He originally thought that this time the merchant ship chasing Xinhua was a good person. He could get a lot of oil and water. However, he did not expect that he would hit the iron plate this time. In the eyes of the Dutch, Xinhua is not a good person. They could even defeat the Spanish, and they would not take the Dutch seriously!

"Order the 'Helder' to return immediately, return to Sishui and report to the Fleet Command! We stay and negotiate with the Xinhua Navy! All this is just a misunderstanding! If we do not return to Sishui, let the Governor's Office find a way to save us. Or avenge us!" Claire ordered. The three 'shark-class' cruisers of the Xinhua Navy are completely beyond the range of strength they can withstand. If they continue to be tough, they can only cause a catastrophe. The only way is to explain clearly and eliminate the misunderstanding. Of course, they must also leave a back-up. If the Xinhua Navy wants to kill them all, someone will go back to report the news. The 'Helder' warship is a sixth-class warship with a small displacement and faster speed. Maybe it can escape from the pursuit of Xinhua.

"Sir! Why do we stay?" Someone raised a question. In the propaganda of the Spanish, Xinhua Kingdom has completely become a devil who does everything he wants. Many Dutch people are afraid to face the navy of Xinhua Kingdom.

"The speed of the 'Alk' is slow. Even if we want to escape, can we escape? We have to buy time for the 'Helder'! In addition, maybe we can explain it clearly to those yellow-skinned monkeys. Anyway, we have not caused them substantial damage!" Claire had a trace of hope in his heart, hoping that these New China navy were not unreasonable people and could explain it clearly. In this way, this crisis might be resolved!

After receiving Major Claire's order, the warship "Helder" immediately turned around and sailed quickly towards Surabaya. The "Alk" continued to sail northeast. However, they no longer attacked the merchant ships of Xinhua!

"Boss, those foreigners ran away! We are saved!" exclaimed the captain of the merchant ship!

"Haha! That's right, the kingdom's navy has arrived! Do those foreign devils still dare to show off their power?" The fat businessman was almost laughing.

The emergence of three "shark-class" cruisers of the Second Fleet of the Xinhua Navy completely changed the fate of the fat merchants. If the Xinhua Navy had not appeared in time, once they were caught up by the Dutch Navy, they would have suffered heavy losses. Maybe they would even lose their lives. In the vast sea, even if the Dutch Navy killed them, no one would know.

"Commander! One Dutch warship is accelerating its escape, while the other slows down. What should we do?" On the 21st warship, an officer asked Lu Haipeng for advice.

"The sixth-class warship is running, which is not much slower than our 'shark-class' cruiser! Let the 25th warship chase! If you can catch up, it's best if you can't catch up!" Lu Haipeng ordered. The sixth-class warships of the Western Navy also have an advantage in speed. Although they are not as good as the 'shark-class' cruiser of Xinhua, it is not easy for the 'shark-class' cruiser to catch up!

On the sea, the hull number 25 of the Shark-class cruiser began to chase the fleeing Shelder, and the other two Shark-class cruisers rushed towards the Alk. The naval guns on the two warships aimed at the Alk, and once they entered the range, they would open fire. Generally speaking, in order to ensure their own safety, the Shark-class cruisers of the Xinhua Navy will not approach the enemy's warship. After all, the Western Navy's warships have a large number of guns. If they are at their range, they may only need one volley to cause the Shark-class cruiser to be severely damaged. Therefore, staying at a safe distance of 2,500 meters is undoubtedly the most suitable!

"Sir! A 'shark-class' warship is going to chase the 'Helder'!" The communications soldier reported to Major Claire.

"God bless the warship "Helder"!" Major Claire could only pray to God that the warship "Helder" could escape the pursuit of the Xinhua Navy.

"Send flags to those yellow-skinned monkeys! This is the Java Sea, the sphere of influence of the Dutch Navy. We are carrying out our mission and ask them to leave this sea area!" Major Claire said.

"Yes, sir!"

The flag bearer of the battleship ‘Alk’ began to speak the flag language and communicate with the Xinhua Navy.

"Hmph! Ask those foreigners why they attacked our merchant ships and give us a reasonable explanation. Otherwise, we will send them to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish!" Lu Haipeng ordered.

The Dutch Navy explained that the merchants of Xinhua Kingdom committed crimes in Sishui and they came to hunt down the merchants of Xinhua Kingdom. However, this explanation did not satisfy Lu Haipeng. When they arrived, they clearly saw two Dutch warships besieging the merchant ships of Xinhua Kingdom. If they had not arrived in time, the merchant ship of Xinhua Kingdom might have been sunk.

After some exchanges, the two sides could not reach a consensus at all. At this time, the distance between the two sides had been narrowed to about four kilometers!

"Let the Dutch down the sails! Take all the artillery back! Then let their commanders explain to us!" Lu Haipeng ordered domineeringly. Faced with a Dutch fifth-class warship, the two "shark-class" cruisers of the New China Navy took the upper hand.

Lu Haipeng's order made the Dutch in the battleship "Alk" explode.

"Sir! What should we do? Those yellow-skinned monkeys asked us to lower the sails, otherwise we would sink!"

"Damn it! They are too arrogant! This is a provocation to the Dutch Navy!" Major Claire said gritting his teeth. If the sail warship lowers the sails, the warship will lose its speed and fall into the slaughter of others. Retreating the cannons into the cabin means contacting the armed forces and stopping resistance. Generally speaking, only when the warship surrenders will be requested like this. Major Claire cannot agree to the request of the New China Navy. Otherwise, even if the crisis comes into contact, once he returns to Batavia, the Dutch Navy's East India Fleet will never give him up easily. Because this approach will damage the honor of the Dutch Navy!

A few minutes later, the warship "Alk" did not respond. Lu Haipeng, commander of the Second Fleet of the New China Navy, issued an attack order!

The No. 21 and No. 23 of the Second Fleet of the Xinhua Navy began to attack three thousand meters away from the battleship "Alk".

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The head of the 21st battleship and the four 105mm naval guns at the stern of the ship, and the four 75mm naval guns on the starboard side opened fire at the same time! The huge kinetic energy generated by the burning of gunpowder hit the shells at the battleship "Alk". The shells fell into the sea on the left side of the battleship "Alk", splashing water columns.

After the No. 21 warship opened fire, the No. 23 warship followed closely and launched a fierce attack on the "Alk" warship!

"God! They really dare to fire? Are they not afraid of causing war between Xinhua and the Netherlands? Are these guys crazy?" Major Claire could not believe what was happening in front of him. Originally, he thought that now the Spanish army was approaching, and Xinhua did not dare to provoke other powerful countries at this time. But now, Xinhua's warships have launched a brazen attack on them.

"Sir! What should we do? The artillery fire in the Xinhua Navy is too fierce!"

"Counterattack! Counterattack immediately! Everyone, the war has begun! We must defend the glory of the Dutch Navy to the death! Fight for glory!" Major Claire ordered. Now that the battle has begun, he has no other way out, so he can only fight to the end. Of course, Major Claire also knew that with just one fifth-level warship, it is impossible to compete with the two "shark-class" cruisers of Xinhua Kingdom. The final result is very likely that their warship was sunk!
