Chapter 1222 Dedicated to the Lord of the Army
The Queen of Aceh, who became a prisoner, was tied behind her hands. The soldiers in charge of the execution of the gun took the musket into their hands and loaded the bullet into the chamber.
The Queen of Aceh seemed to realize that the other party had no interest in her losing power, but wanted to execute her like her husband. There was a hint of despair in her eyes.
"Sir, don't you just say you want to send it to the military headquarters? What are you going to give?" Li Hua Zhongmao, who captured the Queen of Aceh, found that Huang Degong didn't know how to cherish Xiang and Lian Yu at all, so he actually executed her directly on the spot.
"I will report this credit to the military headquarters, but the military headquarters should have no interest in such a backward king and queen." Huang Degong said.
As the largest indigenous kingdom on Sumatra, the Aceh State was unable to suppress the Portuguese after decades of fighting in Malacca. In Huang Degong's view, it was indeed a "backward" place.
"At least you should look at the woman's appearance, otherwise it would seem a pity to be executed like this." Tadashi Tadashi Tadashi said.
"Yes, sir, we also want to see how the woman who can be a queen looks!" a group of soldiers cheered.
"Then take off her veil and let her die more decent." Huang Degong said.
The two soldiers walked towards the Queen of Aceh and wanted to take off her veil.
The queen of Aceh tried her best to struggle, but her hands were tied behind her. The more she struggled, the tighter the rope, which made her eyes burst into tears.
The veil was torn off by two soldiers, revealing a stunning face, her skin was blown and her black oriental hair turned out to be a peerless beauty. Especially with tears in the corners of her eyes, she felt ashamed and angry because the veil was unveiled, which added a bit of charm to the eyes of all men.
"This queen is a world of difference from the concubines we have caught in the past."
"Gu... Sir, can you not execute her? Why don't you give her to me..." Lihua Zhongmao swallowed, wanting to ask Huang Degong to give him the captured queen.
Huang Degong could not have thought that the queen of Aceh would be a beauty. He was not very interested in the aesthetics of these local kings, and he thought he was just an ordinary woman.
"Our regular army only has the right to execute and captives, and has no right to deal with captives... I think it would be better to present her to the army leader, and there might be additional rewards..." Huang Degong saw that the queen of Aceh was probably less than twenty years old, and looked like a beauty was in trouble, so he started to think about it.
If anyone who is so beautiful and infatuated with such a person, there will inevitably be rumors if anyone present takes it.
It is okay for him to force Queen Alan to stay, but it may ruin his reputation as a corps leader. If someone criticizes this, he might even lose his position as a corps leader.
No matter how beautiful a woman is, in Huang Degong's opinion, she is not as good as the position of commander of the corps. As the commander of the corps, many times they regard their career as more important than beauty. Many times, beauty is just a disaster for later generations to force a hat on a certain woman in order to enhance the story.
"There are no specialties in these places. If the beauties here can be presented to the military leader, the military leader may be rewarded with us!" The other middle and lower-level officers and soldiers all started to cheer.
They knew that captives and beauties of this level were not their turn, and it would be better to send them to the capital. If the military leader could accept it with a smile, then the officers and soldiers of their 12th Corps participated in this operation would be able to add a lot of credit.
Tachimao Tachibana was a little regretful. If he had captured such a beautiful woman in the Warring States Period in Japan in the past, he would have thought of a way to rectify her on the spot.
Now the queen of Aceh was intended to be regarded as a spoil, and everyone became the supervisor, and no one could have the idea of her.
The poor Queen of Aceh did not know that she had been regarded as a tribute trophy and was about to be transported to the capital.
However, she found that the soldiers who were originally going to execute her had put away the muskets, and the soldiers loosened the hemp rope that tied her hands.
"Don't let her seek death, maybe she can bring rewards to our 12th Corps." Huang Degong asked the four soldiers to jointly supervise Queen Alan.
After defeating the army of Aceh, Huang Degong dispatched a small team to contact the drilling team deep into the jungle.
The drilling team has successfully drilled an oil well and the oil well has successfully produced oil. Now oil experts are studying the local geology, oil quality, oil well density, and planning pipeline routes.
There is still a distance between the oil field and the harbor. They need to build a twenty-mile pipeline to transport oil from the oil field to the refinery by the river, and then transport crude oil and oil products back to the mainland by sea.
It will take at least half a year to establish a system of oil development and refining from scratch to exporting kerosene and other products.
During this period, twenty miles of pipelines must be maintained to prevent local indigenous people from destroying oil pipelines.
After leaving 400 people in charge of the affairs here, Huang Degong and others left here with their main force.
In addition to leaving behind a mixed force of 400 standing soldiers and mercenaries, they also had several artillery deployed near the battalion and oil fields to prevent local indigenous troops from counterattacking near Medan.
"Although we don't understand why the military attaches so much importance to combustible things like oil, we have successfully completed the military's mission. We hope that the bastion and the refinery will be completed successfully before coming next time." Before boarding the ship, Huang Degong looked at the bastion, which was far from completed, again.
The queen of Aceh was taken to the ship in shame, and she became a prisoner of the Jiuzhou Army and was also a trophy.
Without the king and queen, the tribes were divided under the leadership of the great nobles. The once powerful Aceh Sudan Kingdom was in name only. This large island of Sumatra contains a large amount of oil. The oil field mined by the Jiuzhou Army in Ponkaran Susu is not actually considered a large oil field, and the by-products extracted are mostly kerosene.
However, this oil field can already meet some of the demands of the Jiuzhou Army for oil, and can also accumulate oil extraction and refinement technology through practice.
The refinery in Ponkalan Susu only disperses oil, and after transporting it back to the mainland, it will undergo secondary processing, processing of fractionated petroleum products, and use it to produce petroleum asphalt, plastic, clothing, fertilizer and other industrial products. After an oil field is mined, the subsequent oil fields will appear one after another.
Many officers and soldiers who participated in this battle did not know what this meant. They cared more about the joy of victory and their surprise at the Queen of Aceh.
