I have something to do in the morning, so this chapter is updated a little late, friends, please forgive me.
In the cabin of Huang's flagship ship, the two commanders, all ten of whom had their heads turned to night four-two, had already gathered, quietly surrounding a large square table, waiting for Kang Long's instructions.
Li Ba succeeded Kang Long and served as the captain of the fifth capital of the second battalion. The dead captain was Zhong Sunlong, the second captain of the third battalion. At this time, another captain was promoted from the third battalion to become the second captain of the third battalion.
Dutou.
There is a simple marching terrain map placed on the big table. This terrain map was drawn by Hua Qian based on his memory with the help of brothers Li Hu and Li Ba.
In the early years, the three of them went on an expedition with Jin Emperor Shi Chonggui and walked through this waterway. Hua Tian was a captain of the scout army at that time. Later, due to his meritorious service, he was promoted to battalion commander.
"Everyone, I believe you have memorized the map. Time is tight. This place is less than two hours away from Shahukou. If the grain ship has not arrived at Wangui Beach in two hours, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of the Ghost King. Commander Li, you
Lead the 500-armed soldiers of the 3rd Battalion of Yuan and board the yellow flagship. We are responsible for the safety and support of the grain ships. Commander Hua, you will lead the 500 soldiers of the 2nd Battalion of Yuan and board the Red Flagship with me. We will move forward at full speed and arrive at this grassy beach.
Then you lead the soldiers of Tian Xiong and Huang Sancai to conquer Dongsha Island in Shahukou and quickly eliminate the ambush here. I will personally lead the soldiers of Li Hu and Li Ba from here to the hinterland of Xisha Island in Shahukou.
Quickly deal with the ghost king. Yu Dutou, you lead the soldiers of this capital to guard the red flagship and anchor it at the mouth of Shahukou. If you see a fire and some Khitan soldiers escape, don't fight, just shoot them with strong bows!"
Kang Long issued military orders one after another in a cold voice. Every time someone was mentioned, someone would take the order.
"Remember, after landing, one battalion forms a formation to prepare for a surprise attack, and the other battalion quickly burns the pirate ships. Be sure to catch them all!"
"Master Kang, we still don't know whether the ghost king is real or not, so are we a little too careless to rush in like this?" Li Jixun asked with some disdain while stroking his beard.
Although he supported Kang Long as a transport escort, he was a little dissatisfied with Kang Long's arrangement. He thought that Kang Long was only in his first few days and had never led troops to fight before, although he heard about it in the camp a few days ago.
Kang Long made a big show and commanded a team of armored soldiers to defeat Li Ba's armored soldiers, but he was still a little confused. At this time, he saw that he rashly arranged his troops and attacked the enemy's formation without knowing the strength of the enemy. It turned out that he had no ability.
, it was just good luck last time, and I became more and more disdainful.
Kang Long looked at Li Jixun with a half-smile, until he felt unnatural. Then he spoke calmly and confidently: "Commander Li, I, Kang Long, naturally understand the principle of 'Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger'."
A general must not only know himself and his enemy, but also need a strategy. Although we did not get any useful information from Feng Chenfeng, many things can still be planned. The Ghost King is a master of the Demon Sect and knows Xuan Gong. This kind of person,
I always like to play tricks, be arrogant, and don't take ordinary people seriously. I think it is impossible for him to have Khitan soldiers with him when he attacks us this time."
Li Jixun and others were so confident after hearing what he said, but it was a bit too arbitrary to infer that the enemy in this sneak attack would not have Khitan soldiers based on this alone. Even Hua Tian and others frowned and disapproved.
Li Jixun smiled and said nothing, as if he didn't believe Kang Long's statement at all.
Kang Long did not feel dissatisfied and continued: "Everyone, the Khitan army is currently stationed under the city of Yedu and is at a standoff with our Jin army. We have been ordered to escort grain and grass by waterway to help Yedu. Now, on the waterway and land
, what arrangements will General Fu Yanqing and General Wang Shenqi make? If my guess is correct, the two generals must have blocked the land and water routes to prevent the Khitan army from robbing food. Under such circumstances, if the ghost king can still remain unnoticed,
He led the Khitan army to rob our grain ship, so we have no choice but to accept our fate and give it away with both hands."
Hua Tian and Li Jixun were both veterans of many years of fighting, so they could naturally understand the meaning of Kang Long's words, and they suddenly realized it after thinking about it carefully.
Li Jixun's old face turned red, and he admitted his mistake and said: "Master Kang has a clever plan and is indeed a talented general. He is not comparable to me. I, Li Jixun, surrendered, but I will leave it to Master Kang to handle it."
Kang Long smiled slightly and said: "Commander Li is being humble. Now everyone should work together as one, and stop worrying about other things. On the night of April 2, you don't have to follow me to rob and kill people in the Demon Sect. I know you are the gangsters.
The swordsman on the army pays attention to exterminating demons and defending the Tao, and it is his duty to kill demons. But for this important march, your main task is to guard Feng Chenfeng. When you arrive in Yedu, you still need to hand him over to Yedu Jianghu Hall.
Disposal. Everyone, act according to the previous arrangements!"
Everyone agreed with a bang, walked out of the yellow flagship one after another, and began to mobilize their troops.
The entire fleet left the shore again and moved forward leisurely.
Several messenger speedboats shuttled around the grain ships to send messages. The three battalions of 500 soldiers were divided into 300 people and entered each grain ship to enter a state of combat readiness.
The red flagship took the lead and quickly headed towards the sand Hukou of Wangui Beach.
————————————————————————————————————————It is late autumn, the sun in the sky is dim and cold
The autumn wind blew by, and rows of withered reed poles with white flowers rustled in the autumn wind.
Among the reeds beside Xisha Island in Shahukou, there are several small boats and a three-masted ship moored. The mast of the three-masted ship has long been lowered. From a distance, it is impossible to see that there is such a big ship hidden here.
A black shadow suddenly came from a distance. The shadow stepped on the reed pole, and its body was like a weightless feather, floating over like a giant.
In a moment, the shadow had fallen into the reeds on Xisha Island. From the depths of the reeds, more than a dozen figures sprang out.
"Black Bat, has the Fat Sheep arrived?" a harsh voice like a night owl asked.
The shadow kneeled down on one knee respectfully and replied: "Returning to the Ghost King, my subordinates have been observing for a long time and have not seen the fat sheep appear."
"Huh? Calculate the time, they should be here in half an hour, why can't they meet? Could it be that the boy named Feng dares to play some tricks with me?" The harsh voice whispered.
"Black Bat, you go to Dongsha Island and strictly instruct Gui Luo Wei to closely monitor their whereabouts. Once their whereabouts are discovered, they will immediately use our secret code to send a message."
The black bat responded respectfully, got up and flew again. In a moment, it had flown to the edge of Xisha Island. It was about to break a reed and throw it into the river. When it passed by, it suddenly saw a huge iron-headed warship at full speed.
As it drove over, I was startled and quickly turned back.
At the same time, a very high-pitched strange sound sounded on Dongsha Island. The sound was like the chirping of insects, but no ordinary insects would make such a high-pitched chirping sound.
This high-pitched insect chirp is obviously the secret signal the ghost just said. It seems that the fat sheep has arrived.
By the time the black bat flew in front of the Ghost King, the Ghost King had already led forty warriors in strange silver-white costumes and ran towards the big ship near Xisha Island.
This ghost king was dressed in black attire, with a jade belt tied around his waist, a silver-white gauze hat on his head, and a silver scarf on his face. There was an aura of death all over his body.
He looked back at a warrior in silver attire not far behind him, and said in a harsh voice: "Guimeng, guard those slave boys and don't let anything happen to them."
"Don't worry, Ghost King, these slave boys are just rough kids and nothing will happen to them," the samurai said.
A gust of autumn wind blew by, and many reed poles were blown down by the wind. From the reeds behind the warrior, about a hundred figures in ragged clothes and unkempt faces were revealed.
If you look carefully, you will find that these ragged people are all teenagers of fifteen or sixteen years old. Some of them have fair and delicate skin, some have rough and black skin. They obviously come from the same tribe, and some of them were originally young masters from wealthy families. Some of the abductees were farm boys whose families were ruined and who were abducted because they wanted to survive.
Although these teenagers all look miserable, they have one thing in common. They all have clear eyes. Although they are now being deliberately tortured by these people, their original beauty has not been erased.
I don’t know what kind of shameful deeds this ghost king wants to do by using various means to kidnap these young people.
At this moment, they were surrounded by several warriors holding swords and wearing silver-white costumes in a patch of reeds. They were not allowed to be free. Each of them stared eagerly at the package behind the warriors and kept swallowing. It seemed that the package There should be food that can keep them alive.
