In northwestern Sumatra Island, the nearly three hundred kilometers of coastline from Banda Aceh to Medan had all become landing zones for the German military. Seven Capital Ships from the German Navy Indian Ocean Fleet's main battle formation, along with large numbers of cruisers and destroyers, went madly to work shelling the beaches from within ten kilometers of the coast.
