Chapter 7 Unfavorable Teacher
"I think since I have found the other party's base, it is very likely that it is Causeway Island. It's better to organize a strong attack and put it in one step." Xiao Changfeng said boldly in the tent of the black whirlwind.
Here, it is naturally a gathering of black whirlwind generals. The previous Iron Lion generals have already been scattered for defense. After all, their main responsibility is defense, and the people in this camp are the main attackers.
"No way. Although we have a lot of people, at sea, if the warship is lagging behind and the water is not as good as the other party, there is no need to make those sacrifices. Su Yong shook his head and suddenly smiled, "Just now, on the transformed dragon boat, just shake it a few times, and Brother Xiao vomited non-stop. You should imagine that if the ship is bumpy, how much combat effectiveness do the soldiers still have?"
Xiao Changfeng's face faded and he slapped fiercely and said, "Grandma, I don't know what's going on. As soon as I get on the boat, I feel dizzy, and people can't see clearly."
"That's it," Su Yong sighed, "The bloodline leads 50,000 soldiers and horses, and we dare not go to sea to fight, let alone our 5,000 dry ducks? According to Taro Yamamoto's information, the total number of Japanese pirates is only about 10,000, but they have a lot of warships, coming and going like the wind, which makes the brothers of the Iron Lion League exhausted. Brother Xiao, think about it. We have 5,000 dry ducks to attack the Tonggong Island, where the other party's troops are most concentrated. Even if we land smoothly, I'm afraid it will die.
The generals had come thousands of miles, and they also had a strong ambition in their hearts, but what they saw in the Iron Lion Army also made everyone wake up and nodded in silence when they heard the words.
"So what about going to Heifeng Reef Island this time?" Xiao Changfeng said, "Those Solomon gangs pretend to be ghosts. Anyway, they are not enemies of us. It's enough to deal with the Japanese pirates alone.
Even Xiao Changfeng doesn't know what happened in the poetry competition. Su Yong was also too lazy to explain too much. He just smiled and said, "I intuitively think they are very problematic. Maybe it will be a surprise to go and have a look."
Xiao Changfeng's eyes lit up, but he finally shook his head again without saying anything.
At this time, a dark-skinned southern man looked outside the door hesitantly and asked in the dialect of the south, "Isn't it the black whirlwind army camp? I'm General Su."
Everyone was a little puzzled. Only Su Yong felt very kind and said with a smile, "It's called Budi Brother Guoli." It turned out that it was the water soldiers Yang Yihu was looking for.
About 100 people came here, all of whom were southern men with dark faces. Most of them were native fishermen before. Due to their low level of education, although they have been in the army for more than half a year, few of them can speak Yanlong's official words.
At this moment, this man with a wheat skin color was right. He came in with some surprise and arched his hand. He said in an extremely embarrassed Yanlong language, "Zeng Shuisheng, the deputy head of the navy, was ordered by General Yang to visit General Su Yong."
"I'm Su Yong," Su Yong looked at him and smiled. He felt that his official words were really difficult. He changed his words and said, "Your name is Zeng Shuisheng. According to your local habits in the countryside, it's called Ashui?"
"A Shui" was surprised and happy, and quickly answered, "Yes, it turns out that you are General Su. General Su's name is like thunder, and he is not twisted until he is born later. Ah, General Su is really erudite, and he can even speak local dialects. Not to mention him, even the black whirlwind has been following Su Yong's other generals, but he has fallen a pair of glasses, if any.
I don't know that Su Yong has a wide range of knowledge in his previous life, and his language talent is extremely high. There are many kinds of local languages that he is familiar with.
Everyone discussed and divided the 100 people who came. First, they went to the military equipment department to familiarize themselves with the dragon boat and warships. These navy soldiers will be divided into about 20 people per ship, only responsible for piloting and pulling sails and rowing.
In addition, 2,000 soldiers with slightly higher martial arts skills were selected from the Black Cyclone Brigade, and Yang Yihu also took them to the Marine Affairs Office for sea dizziness training, and selected 900 people with better performance to go to sea tomorrow.
When he was ready, Su Yongcai retreated the crowd and silently closed his eyes to the blood knife in the account and meditated.
......
Dusk the next day.
Sugarcane and coconuts with enough grain and used as fresh water [Coconut water has the function of treating dizziness, similar to glucose water]. Nearly a thousand soldiers in the black whirlwind obviously have a trace of excitement, but the water soldiers responsible for piloting and rowing and sailing are extremely heavy.
"What's the matter?" Su Yong jumped on the enhanced version of the dragon boat that had been painted black and asked "A Shui".
"There is a strong wind tonight, and it's not easy to walk on the road." Ah Shui said in a low voice. As a sailor and former fishermen, they are obviously very good at watching the weather.
This Ah Shui is extremely interesting and knows that it will not affect everyone's confidence. Su Yong nodded and patted him on the shoulder: "Be careful. Let's leave early while it's still early. Don't worry."
A Shui nodded and whistled, leading the first to lead the crowd to set sail.
Heifeng Reef is 60 nautical miles northeast of Cape Island. It is famous for a kind of rare stone as dark as ink on the island. This stone is as cold as ice, but extremely hard. Therefore, as a few decades ago, the government organized local people to mine it for tempering.
Until now, there is still a huge mining field on the island, which is said to be an excellent shelter. Many fishermen who go out to sea and encounter huge storms will choose to take refuge in the mine if they can't come back in time.
When eight warships bypassed Cape Island, and everyone began to see the dark island from afar, the weather really changed as Ah Shui said, and large clouds began to gather, and the color of the sea, which was originally blue as blue as crystal, gradually became gloomy.
In such weather, it is said that fishermen will not go to sea. Even those extremely rampant Japanese pirates have to avoid the power of heaven and earth for a while. I don't know where to hide.
Because of Xiao Chang's strong wind and waves, he did not follow this team this time. Instead, the iron lion Yang Yihu was used to the wind and waves and took the initiative to take a downwind boat.
The sky doesn't seem to be very good. Yang Yihu, who is already half a southerner, couldn't help frowning and said to Su Yong, "In such a sky, those Solomon's believers may not be able to come. It's better to stop at Cape Island. After all, there is our defense station on Cape Island."
But the wind and waves on the sea are uncertain. Maybe the wind will be calm soon, and maybe it will last for two or three days. Su Yong thought for a moment, but he was still not used to being too passive. So he asked Ah Shuidao, "What do you think?"
Ah Shui looked at the clouds on all sides and said affirmatively, "I'm afraid that this wind and rain will not stop for most of the day, and it is even more impossible to go to sea at night. But it will take a while for the heavy rain. The wind and waves come from the north. Although the boat will be slower, I am sure to catch the black wind when it rains and the wind is not strong. It's just that the brother of the Black Cyclone may have to work harder.
The hard work is naturally the pain of bumps.
Sure enough, under their full oars, the modified dragon boat warship also reflected the speed that the ship had not passed in the past, and quickly approached the Black Wind Reef under the harsh conditions of headwind and medium waves.
However, after they landed and fixedly hidden these warships, everyone was soaked. Those soldiers in the black whirlwind were even more bitter and miserable by the faint waves caused by this high-speed countercurrent.
But when they looked at the huge waves on the other side of the sea, everyone was still extremely happy and hurriedly followed these sailors to the abandoned mine.
And behind them, the black waves are like mountains, crazily approaching the darker and harder island of the sea by them.
When they saw the huge hole in the dense forest in front of them, everyone could not care about anyone inside, but a swarm of bees rushed in and followed the last few people. It turned out to be Ah Shui and other extremely bold water army brothers carrying sugar cane, coconut bags and other grain.
Obviously, there is no one in the cave now. Except for the terrible storm outside, it looks a little dull here. Everyone sits around and listens to the power of heaven and earth outside, and they are a little afraid.
After assigning the soldiers to follow these sailors and soldiers for reconnaissance, Su Yong finally relieved and ordered the soldiers to start cooking and drying clothes on those abandoned mine stoves.
"If the rain keeps raining, I'm afraid they won't come." Yang Yihu smiled and said, "But this experience is not bad. I've been in the south for so long. I haven't seen such a high wave, and I've never seen such a strong wind. I think a lot of trees outside the beach have to be broken.
Su Yong nodded. At this moment, there was also a trace of paleness on his face, but he forced a smile and said, "I heard that the most terrible thing on the sea is the tsunami. In my opinion, this storm wave is also a small tsunami. I just hope that I will wake up early tomorrow morning and the island will not be submerged."
