Chapter 323 First Naval Expedition 2
Li Dachui's heart is like thousands of ants crawling around.
Return to the Northern Army? Or fight to the end and rely on the unique geographical environment of the island to block the soldiers and horses of the Pingbei Army?
The sea around Hammer Island is full of reefs, among which there are many reefs. If the boats are not careful, they will hit the reef and sink into the sea.
Without the guidance of internal people, it is not easy to take the right path.
Li Dachui walked to the dust-stacked thick wooden and dilapidated window. Looking at the blue sky outside, he hesitated.
"Previously, the scouts of the Pingbei Army came to the island. Presumably, he had already informed his general of the situation on the island. The one-eyed dragon took it to the island by the right waterway. As a scout, he should remember that this section should be okay.
I don't know why, Li Dachui thought of Zhang Yu. Speaking of it, Li Dachui also appreciated Zhang Yu very much.
"Mother, mother. Linger is going to catch fish.
A beautiful little girl about six or seven years old, with two small braids, ** white feet, and a thin skirt, shouted to a middle-aged woman next to her in light blue clothes with patches.
The middle-aged woman raised her eyebrows and shouted angrily, "The seaside is so dangerous. Don't go. Go and play with Xiaohua. Don't go to the seaside.
Although middle-aged women are strict, they only have love in their eyes.
The little girl pouted her mouth, and her eyes turned left and right, as if she was calculating something.
"Hey"
Li Dachui sighed. The mother and son outside the window were his siblings, and one of his sworn brothers was killed by other pirates in a battle. So Li Dachui took on the responsibility of raising their mother and son.
"They can't lose."
"Come on! Pass the order and let all the people get ready for battle. I want to see how the navy of the Pingbei Army is!"
Li Dachui snorted angrily, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
He Li Dachui is not easy to bully. Let the Pingbei Army see the strength of Li Dachui!
Soon the whole island learned of Li Dachui's order. Needless to say, everyone understood that something must have happened. Originally, it was common for pirates to fight each other. But since occupying Hammer Island, the people on the island have never heard such a strong order from Li Dachui.
Suddenly, the whole island jumped.
The wife looked worriedly at her husband in shabby armor, and the mother sent her son with a broken blade away with tears.
The children were so scared that they cried, and the old people closed the house and wiped their tears secretly.
Everything is like the end of the world.
Because there has never been such a big mobilization.
This makes many people worried.
"I heard that the Pingbei Army came here!"
"Pingbei Army? Who is it?"
"The Pingbei Army defeated the tazis on the mainland, and now it has occupied a lot of land."
"Oh, so it is. But what is the Pingbei Army doing against us? We didn't provoke them on the island.
"You don't know anything about this. My son told me about it. Didn't two strangers go to the island a few days ago? I heard that it was the messenger sent by the Pingbei Army to surrender our great masters. It should be the disapproval of the big owner. So--"
In a thatched hut, two white-haired old men, both of them had a dilapidated and broken black pipe in their mouths, and wisps of white smoke floated up.
[Jiaozhou] The warship quietly came to Wuli on Hammer Island with more than 200 sailors. It can be clearly seen on Hammer Island.
There have been small boats patrolling within three miles of Hammer Island. They have already found that the distant [Jiaozhou] Jiaozhou is not small, at least much larger than their patrol fishing boats.
[Jiaozhou] is also an important part of the North Sea Fleet, which is currently lacking warships. At present, the level of this warship is the battalion class. [ Jiaozhou] The captain of the warship is the commander of the Marine Battalion under the White Shark Guard, Ding Shaoqiu Yang Martial Arts School. Ding Shaoqiu was originally a deputy battalion commander in the Qinwei Brigade. Because of his good water quality, he was selected into the navy and appointed as the battalion commander of the first battalion.
This Marine Battalion was specially arranged and compiled by Liu Xia. This is a special force that can fight water at sea and land on land.
But it must be much worse than Ying Yangwei.
There were four people on a mossy black fishing boat, and the one-eyed dragon was among them. He was squinting the remaining eagle's eyes and frowning at the huge [Jiaozhou].
"Look, a big ship is coming. It seems to be a warship. The one-eyed dragon woke up the four people around him.
Although the one-eyed dragon only has one eye left, I don't know why the last remaining eye has become very sharp and looks farther. That's why he often cruises at sea.
"It should be a warship of the Pingbei Army, but it's only one, which is useless. Although it's a little bigger, we also have a large number of ships. What are you afraid of him?"
"Bang!" The one-eyed dragon pulled up his rough and cocooned big hand and hit a man squatting next to him and said, "You know bullshit!" This is called a striker! Do you understand the striker? There are still three warships in the rear!"
"There are still three warships? Where is it? The beaten man quickly got up and stretched out his neck to look into the distance and wondered.
"Dad, I'm a thousand-sighted man. How can't you see it clearly?" Speaking of this, the one-eyed dragon's face was arrogant.
This is the specialty of his one-eyed dragon, and no one can compare with him. This is also his arrogant capital.
"Cut, blow it blindly. Where are the three big ships on this sea? Obviously, it's just one. Don't talk nonsense to scare people."
"Yes! Don't talk nonsense. Even if there are really three warships, we are not afraid of him. Another pirate said.
The one-eyed dragon didn't care that others didn't believe him at all. He had experienced a lot of this matter, but in the end he was right.
"Don't talk about it, everyone. The ship is getting closer and closer. Go and report it to the big owner." The one-eyed dragon did not dare to neglect, he said quickly. Then the four people quickly rowed to the island.
Ding Shaoqiu went to the deck of the ship, picked up the telescope, and began to observe the hammer island, which had already seen the outline.
Since Zhang Yu had come to Hammer Island last time, he asked Zhang Yu to come with Ding Shaoqiu this time.
"Bagain commander, there should be many reefs around here. The last time I was taken to the island by people on the island, the route was not straight, but a lot of turns. Zhang Yu said his own conjecture. In fact, Zhang Yu guessed it well. The sea is really full of reefs.
Ding Shaoqiu said, "Indeed, look at the boat in front of you. The route they take is not straight. They must be hiding from the reef.
Ding Shaoqiu held a telescope and could clearly see the one-eyed dragon and others rushing to the island.
"Stop!"
At present, I don't know if there is a reef underwater in front of me, so Ding Shaoqiu dares not drive forward.
"Immediately send a small expedition to report to the general."
"Bannon the front!"
Ding Shaoqiu issued a shelling order.
However, this shelling was not a bombardment of the island, but a bombing of the coastal waters of the island to deter the people in the hammer island. After all, they came here to subdue them, not to destroy them.
With Ding Shaoqiu's order, the sailboat began to slowly turn its body and parallel to the island.
Because most of the cannons on the ship are installed on both sides of the ship.
When the ship stabilized, the hull on the other side of the island suddenly began to open small windows, and then a dark cannon eye poked out of the small window.
"Start!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A sound of shelling shocked the sky and earth, and it landed in the sea and stirred up several feet of waves, resounding through the sky and the earth.
Many people on the island exclaimed that they had never received such a fierce attack before.
The pirates' ships are mostly modified by fishing boats and do not have artillery, so they are naturally not very powerful. However, the warship was extraordinary. The artillery fell, and the whole sea was still rough.
"Does the battalion commander still blow up?" After a round, the sea was covered with white foam and turbid. There are even a lot of fried sea fish floating.
Ding Shaoqiu picked up the telescope and looked at the island in the distance again, and the pirates began to gather in a hurry. Climb to the ship moored in the harbor.
