Be A Sultan In Another World

8: Invasion of the Malay Peninsula Part 2 [Battle of Johor]

20-12-1794.

Malacca, siliwangi fort former king arthur fortress.

Four days after the discovery of the secret warehouse, general cakrajiwa is currently checking his army's preparations to control the entire region of the Malay peninsula both from England and Spain.

Before long came 2 officers entered and saluted the cakrajiwa and were reciprocated by him.

"lieutenant colonel yadi and major joko thank you for coming"

"no general! It's our duty as subordinates and we respect and respect the authority of the general!"

"thank you, well let's talk about why I called you two"

"lieutenant colonel how are our troops"

"ready general, the rhino ranpur army can be directly deployed but the tiger ranpur troops still need longer to fill the ammunition that has just arrived from the city of Tanggerang"

"then order the rhinoceros army to advance first and free the villages during the journey"

"ready general!"

"and major, what about his delivery to us?"

"general report! I've brought a map of his shipment from bandung. He said this map will make it easier for us to conquer the entire Malay peninsula"

"give it to me"

"get ready.it's general!"

"alright, thank you, you can go"

""get the general!""

The two officers left and returned to their respective duties.

Cakrajiwa also opened the map on the table and began to think of the best strategy to suppress the loss of life from his troops as much as possible because the military sunda sunda rank will not affect the sense of brotherhood between soldiers because the sultan once stated that subordinates and superiors are only limited to formality and in it there is a relationship of brothers, seniors and juniors who must understand each other without obeying their own ego.

"hmm, 15,000 infantrymen, 250 B-1 guns and 40 rhino raspurs would have been enough"

"the only problem is this part" he said, pointing to a fortress between the slope and the hill.

Seen on the map of the fort was quite large even though the weaponry there was certainly very little.

Coupled with access to a road that is only 3 meters wide adjacent to the ravine increasingly makes it dizzy.

"the point is that this fortress must fall into the hands of my army"

Cakrajiwa rolled up the map and hid it where he had never thought.

25-12-1794.

Five days later, tens of thousands of troops now set out from Malacca to the loebinant fortress, a fortress armed with tens of millions of 24-pound cannons and thousands of musketeers and infantry lines.

The leader of the fort was count jess kertert, a nobleman from the city area of belfast who was in charge of leading the fort owned by the British which made him given the title and also the position as a knight of the king.

"count jess, we got a letter from the city of Malacca"

"from malacca? Give it to me"

"this is.Then I say retreat"

Jess just patted and opened the mail from Malacca, after reading the letter immediately his face showed anger and slammed the chair he was sitting on before.

"fucking shit! How can the city of Malacca fall into their hands!"

"arnold! The karven! Where're you?!"

""we are facing my master""

"Get the troops together immediately and check the state of our cannons!"

""do it my lord""

Both of his subordinates left and Jess immediately took his combat uniform.

"lowly native bastard! I will destroy you with my own hands for desecrating British glory!"

Elsewhere, 10 rhinos have arrived on the road 2 km from the loebinant fortress.

"their fort seems to be ready"

"it seems so, ahh there's a cavalry squad heading this way!"

"how much?"

"201 people including 1 commander"

"1 Ranpur returned and met the general's information, the rest of the enemy cavalry here"

""ready!""

Brrnnn!

1 Ranpur returned to their base while the remaining 9 waited to carry out a surprise attack.

Ranpur rhinoceros (see chapter 7, ranpur in green) is not an ordinary combat vehicle, the vehicle is equipped with 1 B-3 cannon as the main gun with a caliber of 50mm 1 coaxial B-2 rifle and 2 modified B-2 rifles at the top of the turret.

With a maximum speed of 70km/h this vehicle has high mobility and a fairly terrible firepower, with 40mm thick steel armor on the front, 30mm on the side, and the, and 35mm at the rear makes this ranpur able to withstand 24 pound cannon fire from a distance of 100 meters without a dent.

Back to the story, 201 British cavalry troops were moving towards 9 ranpur who hid behind a thicket that was quite far from the road.

"commander! This road seems to have been passed by a merchant caravan, judging from the former track they carry a lot of goods"

"trader? Wasn't the last merchant we saw passing near the fort 1 week ago?"

"but commander, this clearly belongs to a large caravan as the ground is slightly damaged"

"all right, let's continue the surveillance"

Meanwhile, 9 ranpur belonging to the sundanese sultanate had been waiting closely.

Cssst

"commander's report! Rabbit has entered the trap, repeat rabbit has entered the trap!"

"report received, to the trap team please start the attack!"

""ready commander!!""

"ammo!"

"ammunition ready!"

"hoot target!"

"targeted!"

"butt!!!"

Boom up!

Ctiing! Duars!

"ready for the machine gun!"

"machine gun ready!"

"shoot!!!"

Ratatata!

Ctiig!

The British reconnaissance cavalry could not struggle and could only retreat in panic after the 9-caliber 50mm cannon blasted their comrades in arms.

"attack! The attack! Khak!"

"godh!!! Ta-hands! Arghhh!"

"shit-shit! Where did mere-khack come from!"

Groans of pain and torture continued to be heard until the Sultan's army stopped firing.

After the dust had disappeared from the former lookout cavalry fired by the cannons, how fortunate there were survivors, 1 adult male aged about 40-45 years old dressed as slaves and 3 women, 1 Adult woman in her 30s and 2 girls who appear to be teenagers around 16 and 14 years.

After the four men realized they were hugging each other sobbing with tears.

Seeing this incident the crew of ranpur who were there could not help but be moved, it was clear they were a family who were forced into slavery and finally they could be free.

After waiting for the family crying in front of them finished to 9 ranpur was approaching, it was clear the family who finished pouring their emotions back in fear.

The family raised their hands trembling and made the crew choose to go out and meet them.

"who are you and why are you British slaves?"

"we were once a johor royal family, but the British blackmailed our people and our kingdom so we stopped trading with them"

"however, my sister betrayed our family and with the help of the British she took over the johor with cruelty"

"we the remaining royal family was captured and enslaved, we are lucky that my two daughters have not been touched or abused because we have only been held in iron bars all this time"

"...really? You're the other remaining johor royal family?!"

"a-is there any more of the johor kingdom that survived besides us?!"

"yes there, his name is abdul aziz"

"a-abdul? So he survived huh, it seems like I had too much faith in my younger brother who had betrayed me and threw away my half-sister who had always supported me"

"wait why only abdul aziz?! Did he take off the name of the royal family johor!"

"...perhaps, abdul aziz or now colonel abdul aziz has become part of the military sundanese sultanate. He was made a high-ranking officer and became the deputy of lieutenant colonel yadi"

"so, please thank your sultan.and please convey my apology to abdul, I have no right to be saved"

From a distance a horseman quickly led 10,000 cavalrymen and 40 rhino ranspur who towed 40 B-2 and 1 ranpur guns that had previously reported.

"branch!!!!"

"this is me bang!!!"

Hearing the scream, the crew and the surviving slaves were shocked but the grown man there cried.

"branch! This is abdul bang!"

The closer, the more his hands trembled, the more tears flowed down his cheeks.

When he was near, the horseman jumped off his horse and hugged the crying man.

No longer holding back, every crew member who saw this also shed tears, some of them also joined in crying as if they were to feel the reunion before them.

Finally, after the other troops that followed, they wondered why their deputy leader and some people were crying together.

"let it go, I heard that colonel abdul aziz was a member of the johor royal family. Maybe it's his family"

"ohh, that. But why are the surveillance teams crying too?!"

"let them go first, you prepare all the troops to stand by"

"ready!"

After the reunion, colonel abdul aziz immediately brought his family to be examined and treated.

After that the sunda sultanate troops led by colonel abdul immediately built tents and built defensive perits and prepared artillery barricades.

01-01-1795.

The first day of the new year, but instead of being greeted with joy the British troops who were fortified were only greeted by the pounding artillery and the main cannon ranpur belonging to the sultanate.

"ammo!"

"ammunition ready!"

"put the elevation angle on!"

"elevation ready!"

"shoot!"

Booms! Booms! Booms! Booms!

Siiiii!uuu!!!

Duars! Duars! Duars! Duars!

"shoot! Shoot it! Finish britain!"

Ratatata!

Dor's! Ck cting! Dor's! Ck cting!

The sound of gunfire, thumping, and also shock waves colored this battle.

Artillery and rifle fire reverberated everywhere as the fortress that was the refuge of the British forces slowly broke down and as one part of the sultanate's forces quickly rushed in.

With bayonets mounted on the tip of the rifle, the sundanese army soon penetrated the defences of the musketers and the infantry line.

The infantry line troops who were also equipped with daggers did not want to lose, they also attacked with daggers but thanks to martial arts sunda sultanate won a landslide and made the defense of the second line of the British who were in the fort more cornered.

But even so their resistance still damage and some sundanese sultanate troops suffered broken legs, broken bones, even killed by banging and stabbing between bayonets in close combat.

But it only happened temporarily because the sundanese army carrying machine guns entered and strafed hundreds of bullets resulting in many British troops killed.

Eventually the existing British forces were killed and the fort was completely overrun by the sultanate forces.

In addition, the sultanate troops also managed to loot all the arsenal and got a lot of gunpowder and cannon balls that can be used to make firearms.

On the other hand they also found a secret warehouse whose entrance was on the walls of a dungeon covered by cloth.

When it was opened everyone in the hall was shocked, before them there was a mountain of gold bars in the form of taels belonging to the qing dynasty.

And after being taken out and calculated a total of 200,000 bars weighing 800 grams each, of course this makes them wonder where the British make this much money?

The sundanese sultanate itself traded with the qing dynasty but the total value of its trade only reached half in 1 month from this treasure they found.

"everything! We have a mandate from general cakrajiwa!"

"he said we each deserve to have 1 tael gold bar!"

""wow!!!""

"not only that, the general said that all this money would be used to build locomotive lines all over the country! Even every sort would have one to speed up the trip to the city!"

""Yeah!!!!""

08-01-1795.

1 week later, dozens of ships from Java and Madura containing weaponry and food arrived in the Malay peninsula, all the troops there were enthusiastic because they got the news that their sultan gave them rations to eat beef and buffalo 1 time a week.

This is natural because the price of cows and buffaloes is so expensive and because the technology is quite advanced, sunda sultanate has been able to produce tractors and fuel rations for agriculture for free to farmers who have large land.

But even so, the price of rice also decreased by 10% to cover the expenditure of the sultanate government in providing agricultural assistance.

Malacca port, pier 1.

Seen transport ships that have finished issuing supplies and ammunition for the sultanate troops in Malacca and its surroundings.

A ship captain, along with a supreme military leader of the sultanate, appeared to be discussing something.

"captain yadiarta, have all our supplies been moved?"

"ready! True general, we also brought in some additional nurses and doctors to treat the wounded"

"that's it, whether anyone delivered the defense coach or the king?"

"there, he suggested that in less than a month so that we control the entire malacca and make the flow of trade run back"

"well right, at least it's been a long time that the giant ship closed the trade route"

"well general, because I have nothing to say anymore I say I resign"

"ahhh! Wait, we have something for you"

"something?"

"you bring that!"

""ready!""

The troops who heard the order immediately brought the goods in question and it was a pile of sacks and the number was so large that half of the total troops in the port had to take it.

"je-general what is this?"

"tael gold bars from the qing dynasty"

"what?! B-how can?"

"all from the proceeds of the looting of the secret vaults of the British, tell him that all these treasures were acquired by chance"

"but this is so much?! It's impossible to take him on 10 ships"

"don't you guys take more than 10?"

"but some are undergoing treatment as a result of pirate attacks"

"pirate? Don't tell!"

"get the general ready, it.zheng lin. Daughter of zheng yi and ching shih"

"fucking shit! Then we'll add the cannons on your ship!"

"get ready, thank you general!"

"ohh yeah, how many ships did he bring back then?"

"ready, zheng lin was commanding at least 200 ships with cannons varying between 30 and 80 generals"

"....why can there be a child who controls such a large fleet"

"excuse me general, isn't he sultan and you're his age"

"....you're right too"

True, it is not wrong if the captain said so, ahmad the sultan sunda sultanate has a large fleet in the world even able to spread terror for the ships of major European countries.

The strength of the sunda sultanate's naval fleet is arguably very strong and large even though the land area only covers the islands of Java, madura, and bali.

The combat power consists of:

- 2600 armored steam-powered frigate with 60 cannons (b-1 cannon)

- 1200 armored steam-powered frigate with 70 cannons (b-2 cannon)

500 Ship of line steam-powered armored with 120 cannons(b-2 cannon)

350 Steamed steam-powered squat ships with 180 cannons (b-2 cannon)

- 300 steam-powered armored junks with 400 cannons (cannon B-3)

10 Siliwangi-class battlecruiser

- 3 battleship class bandung (1 for sale to ottoman)

With a real naval fleet, the sundanese sultanate has a wide range of aquatic operations even the surrounding government hires marine security services at the sundanese sultanate every month.

Not to mention the sailless steel ships that drove over the ocean at a speed of more than 20 knots made many kingdoms in the archipelago became increasingly convinced by the capabilities of the fleet.

"alright forget about that, so what about all the spoils of this war?"

"prepare the general, we'll bring him back to the sultanate soon"

"good, uh you called all the members of the 2nd and 4th combat artillery battalion"

""get the general!""

"now that the problem here is over, I'm resigning"

"get ready, again thank you general!"

Cakrajiwa nodded and returned to his office.

Meanwhile, in the sea between peninsular malaya and the island of borneo. A fleet of 1,000 ships sailed in various sizes and variations of weapons.

"mom! Are we going to attack the sundanese patrol fleet?"

"of course, son, oh yeah how's your brother doing?"

"cheung po tsai's brother is catching up, maybe they'll arrive in 2 days?"

"hmm so, ohh yeah how's your relationship with him?"

"i-mom! Stop talking about it!"

"hemm, why? He's your father's adopted son anyway and maybe you'll get married"

"i-mom! Stopit! All the crew heard it!"

Ching shih just chuckled and all of their ship crew just smiled, naturally they knew that Chueng po tsai was the adopted son of their great leader, zheng yi.

Cheung po tsai was also the third commando of their pirate group with a fighting force reaching 800 ships of various sizes with 25 largest ships armed with 100 24 pound cannons and 56 30 pound cannons.

Not to mention his age was young and also quite handsome for a pirate who was on a ship for a very long time.
