In the camp, Li Zhen sat at the head of the rectangular conference table, with Huang Shihai and Yang Banhou sitting on his left, and Huang Hu and Lan Weiwen on his right. Currently, Li Zhen only has these four people under his command, and
Lan Weiwen has just taken it for herself and has not completely returned to her heart. Li Zhen's strength still appears to be very weak.
Li Zhen said: "The foreign affairs have come to an end, and we will attack Shanghai next."
Lan Weiwen immediately asked: "Sir, it may be difficult for you to prevent foreigners from interfering in Shanghai's affairs. There are artillery in the military camp, but they are all rusty. There is not enough artillery fire to blast open the city gates of Shanghai. To capture Shanghai, we must
It’s difficult. With the more than 900 soldiers you brought, it’s difficult to even climb the city wall. I wonder what your plans are?”
Yang Banhou said worriedly: "General, do you have any good ideas?"
Huang Hu didn't care and said carelessly: "The general is very resourceful. He only needs to use his brain a little bit to figure out a way to break through Shanghai. With more than 900 soldiers carrying foreign guns and entering the city, they will definitely beat their knives to pieces."
Li Zhenxiao said: "There is indeed a way, but it requires going deep into the tiger's den and sneaking into the city."
Huang Shihai said in a deep voice: "Sir, you mean to capture the thief and the king, and go to the city to deal with Liu Lichuan."
"Yes, that's what I planned."
Li Zhen glanced at Huang Shihai with admiration and felt that Huang Shihai was worthy of training.
Huang Shihai frowned, his expression suddenly dimmed, and said: "Sir, let's not talk about whether Liu Lichuan can be killed. Shanghai County has a large city wall and there are countless guards on the city. It is very difficult to sneak into the city. Even if
To sneak into the city, Liu Lichuan must be protected by guards, and Liu Lichuan is from the Tiandihui and is a martial arts practitioner."
After a pause, Huang Shihai continued: "The most important thing is that Liu Lichuan is surrounded by people from the Temple Gang, Tangqiao Gang, and Bailong Party. These people are all good at martial arts. It is extremely difficult to assassinate Liu Lichuan."
Before coming to Shanghai, Huang Shihai sent someone to inquire about the situation and knew the Xiaodao Society quite well.
Li Zhen said: "Shihai, you always think about close combat and fail to broaden your horizons. With the sniper rifle, we have a buffer distance. After shooting the enemy, we can retreat calmly. And the bullet is shot,
It doesn’t matter whether he has a golden bell or an iron shirt, no matter what kind of martial arts he practices, no matter how strong his martial arts skills are, one bullet is enough to kill a person with outstanding martial arts skills.”
Huang Shihai added: "Even so, you can't put yourself in danger."
Li Zhen smiled and said: "I am just a small general, not a noble person. Why can't I take risks? As long as I can capture Shanghai, I can take action."
Yang Banhou said: "My lord, I will sneak into the city with you."
Li Zhen nodded and ordered: "For this operation, Banhou and I will select the ten strongest soldiers from the Sharp Knife Special Forces to enter the city together. After dark, we will start the operation. Enter the city and shoot the knives one by one.
The main figure of the guild has made the Xiaodao guild leaderless and in disarray. Shihai, you are familiar with military affairs and can suppress the soldiers in the camp and guard the camp together with Huang Hu."
Huang Shihai glanced at Lan Weiwen next to him and agreed directly.
After a pause, Huang Shihai asked: "General, after you shot Liu Lichuan and others, the Xiaodao Society will be leaderless. Once the situation in the city becomes chaotic, we should launch an attack. But we are outside the city and cannot detect the situation inside the city.
How to be sure?"
Li Zhen thought for a while and said: "If I complete the task, I will shoot three times in a row, with an interval of one minute between each shot."
"One minute?"
Huang Shihai blinked and was confused.
When Li Zhen saw Huang Shihai's expression, he realized that Huang Shihai had never touched a clock. At that moment, Li Zhen took out the pocket watch that Mas gave him, handed the pocket watch to Huang Shihai, pointed to the second hand on the pocket watch, and said slowly:
"When gunshots are heard in the city, you look at the position of the longest hand. It makes one revolution, which is one minute. If it makes two revolutions, it is two minutes. So you stare at the position of the second hand,
Wait until it makes a circle and then hears the gunshot again, and you'll almost be sure."
Huang Shihai suddenly realized it and said: "The general finally understands."
Li Zhen added: "I will lead people to sneak into the city, and I will definitely shoot many people. You don't have to pay attention to the gunshots at the beginning. For your convenience, I will agree on another time for you. You can ignore the gunshots on the first day.
Only the noises coming from the next two days need attention. If the interval is one minute, you can determine the time to attack the city."
Huang Shihai nodded frequently, and then carefully placed the pocket watch in his arms.
This pocket watch was given to Li Zhen by Maas. Huang Shihai knew it was very precious and did not dare to be careless. After finalizing the plan, Li Zhen got up and went to the military camp of the Jian Dao Special Forces. Nowadays, the soldiers of the Jian Dao Special Forces have become accustomed to reading and can
I know how to read. In addition, the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Special Forces are all capable people, so I have a foundation.
Although there is no training currently, Li Zhen has no choice but to catch up.
Only when the foundation is stable can you have time for special training.
Ten soldiers were easily selected. When these soldiers heard that they were going to sneak into Shanghai with Li Zhen to carry out the mission, not only were they not afraid at all, but they were extremely excited.
In the afternoon, Li Zhen asked Huang Shihai to send someone to inspect the blind spots of the Shanghai Tower.
With a blind spot, Li Zhen had a chance to climb.
It only took the soldiers sent to inquire about the news an hour to find out eight blind spots on the city tower, from which one could easily sneak into the city. It can be seen from this that although the Little Sword Society is huge, there are people who are truly proficient in the art of war.
But not much, otherwise it would not be possible to leave so many dead spots.
After nightfall, the sky became dark.
It's already the end of October and it's almost November.
The weather is cold and the nights are as dark as ink.
Li Zhen, Yang Banhou and the ten soldiers of the Sharp Knife Special Forces all wore cotton-padded jackets and black night clothes, and moved forward with their faces covered. Not only that, Li Zhen also asked everyone to carry red headscarves and
Ordinary coarse linen and linen clothes. Because the members of Xiao Dao Society have an obvious mark, the soldiers all wrap their heads with red cloth.
Li Zhen and his men sneaked into the city to prepare for action, so it was necessary to change their clothes.
Under the dark night, there was a faint light shining on the tower, and I could barely see the situation clearly.
Li Zhen, Yang Banhou and others were standing under the city wall. The tower in this place was a blind corner, and there were no soldiers from the Xiaodao Society stationed there. Li Zhen took out a rope as thick as his thumb from his waist.
It is a specially designed hook rope for climbing. As long as you throw the sharp iron hook onto the tower and hold on to the edge of the city wall, you can climb up the tower.
Li Zhen ordered in a deep voice: "Marquis Ban, you and the rest of the people are waiting below the city. I will go up to investigate the situation, and then I will whistle from above, and you will come back up."
