The news of Pontenak being occupied by anti-government armed forces entered the major media sections on the same day. Of course, it was not a particularly important section. It was just used as after-dinner money. The Red Guards were also judged as anti-government armed forces, which was very common internationally.
However, the tanks displayed by the Red Police Corps had become the focus of many countries. The appearance of the tanks looked like science fiction, but that was all. They did not know the specific performance of this type of tank. As for the stealth design, it was not very important for the tank.
Although it didn't cause a big stir internationally, it was different in the Thousand Islands Country. Pontenak, as the capital of West Kalimantan, was actually occupied by an anti-government armed force of the ancient Chinese. Their President Suharto was furious.
"Damn it, you have to give me an explanation. Why did this happen? I didn't receive any news at all!”Suharto's hand was trembling as he held the phone. He looked very angry.
Not only was he angry that Pontitenak had been occupied, but he was also angry that his subordinates had kept it from him.
"President, I'm not too sure either. The chief of Pontenak, Kalidan, was afraid that I would punish him, so he kept the information from me. When I sent the army to suppress the rebels, it was discovered that they were so powerful. Their weapons and equipment were also very advanced.”The commander of the Kalimantan military region immediately pushed the blame onto Kalimantan.
Suharto felt that it was very troublesome now. Pontenak had been occupied, and with so many civilians, it would take a lot of effort to recover them in the future.
At present, attacking Pontenak was not a wise move. Although they had yet to gain a firm foothold, their experience in two or three wars had told them that they had to first understand the specific situation of the anti-government armed forces of the ancient overseas Chinese.
"Foreign forces? I'll inform the customs and have them check the goods entering the customs. Don't be in a hurry to recover Pontenak. We need to investigate their situation first before taking action. If your military district doesn't have enough troops, report to me. I'll transfer them from other military districts!”
Suharto also felt that it was not simple. The weapons of this ancient Chinese rebel army were very advanced. They must have been obtained from abroad.
The most important thing now was to cut off their source of weapons. Although the weapons were advanced, their ammunition supply was definitely limited. Next, they would contact the people in the city and work together to destroy this rebel army.
He did not dare to cut off the food supply of Pontenak for a simple reason. There were hundreds of thousands of civilians here. If he did so, he would definitely be condemned internationally.
The commander of the military region also understood what he had to do next. He sent troops to block the path of the anti-government armed forces and try to trap them in Pontenak. Then, he would plan to recover Pontenak.
The main source of income for Pontenak was still the export of crude oil, and there were many small and medium-sized oil fields under their jurisdiction. There was almost no development in other industries. The entire Pontenak was only crude oil and agriculture, and the industrial development was almost zero.
In the 1970s and 1980s, the Thousand Islands Country's crude oil export revenue accounted for 80% of the country's income. From this, one could see why the Thousand Islands Country was so backward.
There were very few high-rise buildings in the entire city. Most of them were small buildings with five or six floors, and the layout was complicated. There was no urban design at all.
Although there was no industry in Pontenak City, it was still very capable in terms of food production. At least, it was self-sufficient. However, the Red Police Corps did not have enough troops. It was still difficult to occupy the surrounding farmland.
Li Jiulong had also arrived in the city yesterday, and his office was now the city government of the former Pontenak City.
Looking at the pile of reports in front of him, Li Jiulong felt a headache coming on. These reports were mainly about two aspects. One was the soaring price of goods, and the other was the grain reserves.
Although the situation had stabilized, the people in the city were still in a state of panic. If it weren't for the fact that the Red Guards had already taken control of the roads in and out of Pontenak, perhaps half of the people in the city would have fled.
As a result, the prices of all kinds of goods skyrocketed. There was also the problem of food. At present, the food in Pontenak was only enough to feed 600,000 people for three months.
And now, Li Jiulong was dealing with this matter of raising prices.
"How is it? Have you investigated thoroughly? Are those people driving up prices?" Li Jiulong asked a Red Alert officer in front of him.
After hearing this, Li Jiulong smiled and said,""They want to kill them, but they actually gave me a knife. It seems that they are very aware! Contact Brigade Commander Han and ask them to cooperate with you. Capture and kill those who need to be captured. There's no need to be polite to these people. Kill them until they're afraid!”
At night, the soldiers of the 1st Armored Brigade began to move. Tonight was destined to be a bloody night!
