Kang Long did not explain too much to Zhu Yuanlang, but told him in an extremely confident tone that he would definitely lead everyone to victory in this battle, allowing him to go to bed with peace of mind.
Although Zhu Yuanlang didn't know where Kang Long's confidence came from, it seemed that every time Kang Long spoke with such an extremely confident tone, he did succeed in the end.
Kanglong took advantage of the cover of the night, opened his arms, and relied on the long gliding wings tied to his arms to fly along the river all the way to Shazhou Island. The location in the middle of the river where the Blood Wolf Fleet was stationed was about three miles away from Shazhou Island.
The distance is about ten miles. Although this distance is nothing to Kang Long, he does not dare to consume too much Xuan Gong energy. Therefore, he prepared a pair of long wings for gliding in advance.
The long wings are made of oilcloth as the surface and iron bars as the bones.
Kang Long tied two long gliding wings to his arms, and with the help of these long gliding wings, he arrived at Shazhou Island in a very labor-saving and time-saving manner.
Kang Long quietly put away his long gliding wings, used the method of sneaking and crouching, and began to explore the sandbank island.
After exploring for most of the night, Kang Long finally got a close look at the situation on the entire Shazhou Island. To his surprise, the area of the entire Shazhou Island was larger than he had imagined, and the terrain was also very complex.
.In addition, the area of sandy soil fields suitable for growing food crops is not small. It is more than enough to accommodate the more than 10,000 orphans of Qianliang and more than a thousand elite disciples of the Beggar Clan.
Judging from the exploration along the way, Kang Long was also secretly worried. He was not worried about how difficult it would be to attack Shazhou Island, because judging from various signs, the Japanese pirates occupied this Shazhou Island for a very short time, even less than a month.
Time. Many places are not guarded and defended at all. Some simple trench traps are dug and set up in a few important places, which are still effective against ordinary people. Warriors with a little skill can easily avoid these traps.
What worried Kang Long was that he found that the overall strength of these Japanese pirates was very balanced and well-organized, and their management was even much stricter than that of the ordinary regular army.
These Japanese pirates were all strong and agile, very alert, calm, and exuded an aura of fearlessness. On several occasions, Kang Long was almost discovered by Japanese pirates who patrolled at night or posted secret sentries.
Kang Long took a closer look and found that the number of Japanese pirates was about two thousand. He just didn't know how many Japanese pirates were not on the island, but took battleships to set up ambushes at sea. Kang Long could guess some, but he didn't know.
Accurate or not, the Japanese are cunning. He is not very sure that the Japanese will not make a fuss about this matter. He is on guard against someone taking the opportunity to find out their true and false intentions. He has never used blinders to illuminate his opponents' fatal misjudgments.
After much of the night's exploration, Kanglong had already found a very suitable place for landing. This place is about four or five miles away from the low mountain in the center of the island. If you can make good use of it and land on the beach from here, you can not only successfully land on the beach, but also make good use of it.
If successful, you can also take advantage of the situation to establish a stronghold here, form a confrontation with the Japanese pirates on Shazhou Island, and use the terrain and weather to drive the Japanese pirates out of Shazhou Island in one fell swoop, thus occupying the entire Shazhou Island.
Kanglong took advantage of the cover of night and carefully explored Shazhou Island several times until he memorized the topography of the entire Shazhou Island, and then stopped. This Shazhou Island was obviously similar to the Yangtze River Delta in his previous life.
Chongming Island is similar to Chongming Island, but its area is much smaller than that of later Chongming Island.
Kanglong quietly caught a Japanese pirate warrior and thought about what he could get out of him, but the Japanese warrior refused to let go. When he got desperate, he actually committed suicide by taking poison. This approach reminded him of
The situation encountered when hunting Japanese spies in the previous life.
Kang Long, who returned to the Blood Wolf battleship, already had a rough battle plan in his heart. The next step was to fight against the Japanese pirates. Although the plan was very thorough, Kang Long felt very frustrated in wanting to achieve the desired results.
Headache.
At dawn, Ma Benlei and Li Cunba were called by Kang Long to discuss the next step. They saw Kang Long sitting cross-legged in front of the sand table with a frown, staring at Shazhou Island and the nearby terrain in trance.
He didn't come forward to disturb him, but stood aside and waited for him quietly.
"Oh, second brother, Lao Li, are you here? What time is it now? Are there any Japanese warships coming to harass you?" Kang Long came back to his senses, looked at the two of them and asked.
Li Cunba asked with a worried look on his face: "My lord, my subordinates see that you are frowning. Is it because you visited the enemy camp last night?"
Kang Long laughed loudly and said in a confident tone: "Cunba, I don't care about the Japanese pirates at this point. I was just thinking that now that the news that we are entering the sea from the river has been spread, as the notorious pirates in the East China Sea
The big bandits, do you think the Blood Wolf Bandits and the Yellow Turban Bandits are just sitting around watching the fun, or have they sent a large number of warships and are heading towards us?"
Li Cunba and Ma Benlei looked at each other and were shocked at the same time. Indeed, they both ignored this problem. The news that they had looted the Tengjiao Gang's headquarters had probably spread by now.
"Lord, what can we do?" Li Cunba has traveled all over the country over the years and has heard many stories about the three major bandits of the East China Sea. Now they are in a hurry to deal with the Japanese pirates alone. If they add the other two bandits, he will be in a hurry.
I really don't know how to deal with it.
Kang Long smiled and said: "I have had a relationship with Li Qinglin, the 'Breaking Sword' of the Yellow Turban Bandits, and Du Kuangtu, the 'Blood Evil' of the Blood Wolf Bandits. It's just the Evil Sword of the Blood Wolf Bandits.
Immortal Li Yi has a grudge against me, so he might take action. Although Li Qinglin, the 'Broken Langdao', is known as a master of magic, after I got to know him, I found that the rumors were not reliable.
With my scheming and knowledge, as long as I use the right method, I am confident that I can make him retreat and even become our ally, but this blood wolf bandit is quite troublesome. Well, don't worry about these things. I have my own opinion on everything. In short,
Since I promised Yuen Long to settle all these people, I must not break my promise."
The two of them had no better way, so they could only nod in agreement. Kang Long said to the two of them with a solemn expression: "Cunba, second brother, you must remember that if you encounter an enemy ship today, no matter how rampant the enemy ship is, you must
If we want to lure you away from the Blood Wolf battleship group, don't be fooled into pursuing them, just fight them near our own battleship group."
The two agreed at the same time and were about to go out to carry out the execution. Kang Long thought for a moment and stopped them again, saying: "Your mission is very simple, that is, to repel all enemies who come to harass you. But I feel that they have something else to do today.
Action, Cunba, you will select a group of elite people who are proficient in water-based skills from other battleships, give them the best daggers, and give them the water props stored in the cabin of the No. 4 battleship.
Equipped with a pair of people, prepare a large number of stoves and charcoal, and be ready to light a fire at any time. Once an enemy is discovered coming from the water, send this group of people into the water to destroy the enemy ship."
Li Cunba said in surprise: "My lord, do you think that these Japanese pirates have warships that can submerge in the water? Isn't it possible? I think our Chinese Empire, the Tang Dynasty, has been passed down for hundreds of years and has many talents, but we have not yet successfully developed a warship that can submerge in the water.
Battleships, how could they have this capability?"
"Cun Ba, there are no absolutes. How do you know that if we can't make something, others will definitely not be able to make it? This kind of thinking will never be allowed in the future. Never underestimate anyone, especially your own enemies, otherwise you will
You will suffer a big loss." Kang Long said solemnly.
Li Cunba looked ashamed. Fortunately, he was still a prostitute. Why didn't the young man in front of him think carefully? "Yes, I will teach you."
"Brother, how was your exploration of Shazhou Island last night?" Ma Benlei asked from the side. Kang Long had not mentioned Shazhou Island to them since he came back from the fight. He had always been secretly curious.
"It's hard to tell the specific situation, but I can preliminarily conclude that the Japanese pirates should not be underestimated. Their overall combat effectiveness is very strong, and it is definitely not something that our untrained blood wolf new army can compete with. Currently, although there are only two thousand people on Shazhou Island
There are Japanese pirates on the left and right, but there are still an unknown number of Japanese pirates lurking somewhere on the sea. I don’t know who their commander is, so I don’t dare to easily judge what strategy they are using to intercept us in one fell swoop.
Kill." Kang Long said with a gloomy expression, "However, those Japanese pirates have obviously just established a stronghold on Shazhou Island. All defense facilities have not been built yet, and there are even none at all in some places. This is a once-in-a-lifetime situation for us.
A good opportunity.”
The two nodded in agreement and said: "Master (eldest brother), if there are no other instructions, we will go and prepare."
"Go." Kang Long waved his hand, and suddenly he seemed to think of something again, and patted his head, secretly blaming himself for what had happened and why he was so careless. He must never be like this in the future. Kang Long blamed himself,
While speaking domineeringly to Li Cun: "Old Li, tell Yuen Long to take out the cotton clothes from the warehouse of the No. 3 battleship and distribute them to everyone."
Li Cunba said puzzledly: "Lord, our soldiers have already been issued with cotton-padded clothes to keep out the cold once, why do they need to be given out again? Besides, although it is cold on the river, it is not necessary to wear two sets of cotton-padded clothes, right? It is so inconvenient.
, how can we still fight?”
"This is called being prepared, stop nagging and go quickly!" Kang Long glared.
Li Cunba agreed and turned around to leave somewhat depressedly. However, Ma Benlei patted him on the shoulder and said, "Old Li, why do you have so many problems? Who is my eldest brother? He knows astronomy from above and knowledge from below.
Marquis Zhuge Wu, who knows everything about geography, is resurrected. He asked us to get an extra set of cotton clothes. He must have his reasons."
Li Cunba thought about it. After receiving the cotton-padded clothes, he could not wear them now. It would not be too late to wear them again when it gets really cold.
The people on the Blood Wolf Battleship had just had breakfast and were hiding on the deck of the small battleship behind the large battleship to bask in the sun. This was what Kang Long asked them to do every day, as it was said to prevent them from contracting diseases.
A siren suddenly sounded in the formation. Before the women, children and children could hide in the cabin, they heard the sound of war drums ringing outside again. Two medium-sized sea shark warships arrived less than one mile away from the Blood Wolf Army.
On the river, the Sea Shark warship is like a big shark in the sea, fast and ferocious. It is swimming majestically on the river a mile away with an obviously provocative attitude. Many Japanese pirates on the Sea Shark warship,
He took off his pants and urinated in front of them while swearing in harsh Chinese.
