Chapter 41 Nighthawk Landing
Ask for collection, ask for tickets!!

The cruise ship is quietly stationed on the sea. Because there is no suitable dock in Pisagua, the soldiers can only use the most primitive boat connection method to set foot on this strange land like ants moving.
"Quick, fast! Rest immediately after landing, and go to battle an hour later!" Looking at the soldiers beside him who were waiting in line in front of the gangway with guns on their backs while stuffing food into their mouths, although they had sent commandos in advance to clean up the obstacles, Zhao Long's lips were still dry and his throat was smoking.
There was nothing he could do. Originally, he thought that the soldiers could rest and recuperate after coming to Chile, even for one day. Unexpectedly, as soon as the fleet approached Pisagua, it met the two cruisers of the Chilean navy waiting here. After the liaison officer and several translators who seemed to be local Chinese boarded the ship, he knew that the name was unslod. Mr. Li launched it ahead of schedule!
The war has been going on for two days!
Grandma! ! I've been playing for two days. Will I be late? It's all because of the bastard of Long Guozhang. It's too weak. Can't you double the speed of the fleet?
Zhao Long's forehead is full of fire. Fortunately, Long Guozhang beside him doesn't know what he thinks in his heart. Otherwise, according to his surname, he will definitely fight directly with Zhao Long! What does it mean to double? You think this is a war horse running on the road! With this broken ship, the thirteenth section is already fast!
Since it is late, the plan must be adjusted immediately. The original rest should be cancelled immediately. We must give him a few knives while the opponent does not know that there is a new force to join, so that the descendants of these whites and Indians also know what the "Far East barbarians" are!
Thinking of this, Zhao Long quickly turned his head. It happened that Long Guozhang also happened to look at him again. The two looked at each other and immediately guessed each other's thoughts.
According to the original plan, he must send the first batch of troops to Pisagua and then send the second batch of troops to the fortress of Iquique to help the defense of the Chilean Marine Corps there, but now it must be changed, and it is impossible to wait for the first batch of troops to land.
"Let's break up here!" Long Guozhang looked at the horizon in the distance, and his fist almost clenched out of the water. In any case, he was not allowed to fail for the ironclad ship.
Zhao Long nodded, and then shouted at a young man who was holding the railing to watch the play with a gun on his back and slightly hooked the corners of his mouth not far away.
"Luo Feng!"
"Ado!"
When Luo Feng heard the shout, the smile on the corners of his mouth disappeared. He ran quickly to Zhao Long and Long Guozhang, saluting, repaying, clean and neat.
"Go, take your battalion and set out with Lao Long immediately. He will arrange a ship to escort you to Iquique, and the Chilean cruisers will also go together to assist the Chilean Marines there. If there is an attack, be sure to stick to us, if the enemy is not aware of it..."
"Fry him, grandma!" Luo Feng blinked, and the answer was smart and cute, clever and straightforward.
"Bad boy." Zhao Long smiled and didn't care at all when his tongue was interrupted. He waved his hand and said, "Get out of here!"
"Yes!"
Looking at Luo Feng's young back, Long Guozhang nodded. He knew Luo Feng. This boy seemed to be cynical, but he was particularly desperate when he was trained. He gradually stood out from the escort. In addition, this guy was literate and flexible, so he was promoted to the battalion commander of the escort, and his 500 people under him have always been Known as the elite of the escort, the monthly competition has never reached the top of the list, so his trip to Iquique is indeed the best candidate.
Soon, the two armed cargo ships took the lead in leaving the formation and continued to sail south. When the other party disappeared on the sea level, Zhao Long turned his head and suddenly shouted, "Notify me, all of them must land in three hours!"
With Zhao Long's order, the soldiers began to gather on the side of the boat. Many people watched their partners board the boat and took a deep breath. Some of them had been training for two years, and some had only joined the team for less than half a year, although they shouted the young master's name, "Soldiers are born to fight" But when the war really came to them, many people were still so nervous that they wanted to pee.
The performance of his men did not surprise Zhao Long. Now he feels that Li Qiang is lucky. At least several bastards there have actual combat experience, unlike his own, they are all new recruits. No wonder the young master always says that the army that has not experienced the war in person, even if it is armed to the teeth, it will always be just a decoration. .
"I don't know where those guys are now?"

Antoine Fargaast is the most important port in central and northern Chile and one of the important military towns in the north. Due to geographical restrictions, most of Chile's saltpetre mines are located in the desert area north of Antoine Fargaast, but there are no other good ports in the north except the port of Iquique, which can barely dock cargo ships, so It undertakes more than 70% of the saltpeter export transshipment tasks.
I saw the important surname of Antoine Fargast, which has always been the strategic focus of Chile, second only to the capital Santiago, and even surpassed Tarcavano in the eyes of the political axe army led by Balmeseda.
Of course, in addition to geographical advantages, the huge Chilean local saltpeter merchants and aristocrats here are also the most important economic source of the political axe army. Compared with those rich foreign merchants, the domestic merchants in Chile are much more shabby, but the winner is that the number of people is very large, precisely because the profits of saltpetre are dominated by foreign merchants. It forced them all to gather around the president in an attempt to weaken or even break the monopoly of foreign businessmen and share the feast brought by saltpeter by supporting Balmeseda!
The noisy harbor seems a little quiet tonight. Those foreign saltpeters seem to have completely disappeared from Antofagast, and most of the cargo ships gathered in the port have been evacuated, leaving only a few small boats supporting the scene.
The huge profits generated by the monopoly have made both sides red. Everyone knows that civil war is inevitable, but when it really comes, many people still fall into deep fear.
No one likes war!
The soldiers standing in the streets and alleys full of rifles and alert faces made Antoinefagast feel the chill of winter half a year in advance.
Fortunately, the conflict of war is still only in the south. Although the rebels control most of the Chilean warships, they are not all. A few lonely figures outside the port and thousands of elite soldiers stationed here give enough confidence to the people in the city of Antoine Fargaast who support the president.
After all, those congressional traitors do not have enough land power. Even if their marines land in the north, they will face several times, or even dozens of times more elite troops!
As the waves gradually rose, the sound of Sasha's waves brought this important town in northern Chile to sleep, but no one knew that in a desolate open space outside the port, more than a dozen men in black sharkskin jump-pieces and holding rifles were like a group of ghosts from the bottom of the sea, quietly He silently poked his head out from under the sea, and then quickly touched the coast.
Li Qiang squatted down and quickly peeled off the waterproof suit made of shark skin. He took out the dry black suit from the waterproof bag. After putting on the clothes, he tore open the waterproof sleeve on the gun, and then glanced around coldly.
Soon, they were surrounded by night eagles who had changed their clothes. As for the shark leather coats, although it was expensive to make a set, no one likes to fight with them on their backs. What's more, the grenades and explosives removed from the waterproof boxes have taken up too much weight, so everyone has to put the coats in. The empty box put a few big stones and sank to the bottom of the sea.
In order to set up the Night Eagle, Master Li spent a lot of effort. In addition to the thick training manual at the beginning, he also specially collected some training methods in movies and novels in his mind, compiled them into a book for Li Qiang's reference.
In terms of weapons, the Nighthawk is also the best. In addition to the compass, waist knife and other small things, they are all Mauser rifles. They are also equipped with a revolver for each person. Even the grenade just launched in the escort was specially designed for the Nighthawk at the beginning.
Although Li Qiang is very satisfied, Master Li is still not very satisfied. However, considering his current ability, he can only do this for the time being. After all, even if Master Li has a golden finger, he still needs enough factories and professional workers to make those things.
He withdrew his eyes from the dim city in the distance, and the cold light in Li Qiang's eyes flashed away. In the city, a night eagle is not very familiar with the combat environment, but it doesn't matter. As long as you look at the tall and low buildings where the hives gather together, you can imagine that this will be the best training ground for the night eagle who regards hiding as an important training.
After several nighthawks took over the sentry mission, Li Qiang quickly took out the map given by the Chilean liaison officer from his arms and checked it with the faint starlight.
As a harbor city, the most important thing is undoubtedly the forts arranged by the sea. The huge forts and ferocious muzzle are simply a hedgehogs for ordinary people, but for specially trained nighthawks, they are impossible targets one by one, not to mention that the Chilean political axe army will not expect to die. There will be an elite team from China under their eyes.
Night is destined to be the moment when the night eagles soar!
What's more, if you want to achieve the young master's goal, create chaos, lay a good foundation for future operations, and give the Chilean navy a little confidence, the best way is to get rid of this turret!
"The first team, on the left."
"Second team, right."
Li Qiang pointed to the angular fort: "According to the training, don't fall in love with the war. Don't forget to stuff things into the barrel. If you can fight, you can fight, and withdraw if you can't." Li Qiang swept over the crowd: "It will be out of the city tomorrow morning."
"Yes." Looking at the map, the night eagles were like a group of hungry wolves who saw fat meat. They licked their lips and whispered to the team members. They divided into two teams and disappeared into the thick night.
