Daming pirates

After this false alarm, time was delayed some more. After dark, the Sea Lion began to sail towards Nanri Island. In order to avoid being exposed, no lights were lit on the ship, and only the moonlight in the sky was used to protect the people on the ship.

Provide a little light to operate the ship.

When they arrived at the small desert island in the southeast corner of Nanri Island, it was already more than half an hour later than the scheduled time. Before the Sea Lion docked at the small desert island, Yu Xiaotian ordered the sampan to be put down.

, ordered several people who were participating in the rescue operation to land on the island to prepare for departure.

The sampan was slowly lowered into the water with ropes. Considering that the sampan was relatively small, it would have to carry the two Qian Wangs and other people who might be rescued on the return trip, so the Sea Lion came out this time and carried two people.

A sampan, as a backup.

Nine people, led by Yu Xiaotian, got off the sampan. Each sampan was also equipped with a sailor who was responsible for rocking the oar. They stayed on the sampan after they docked.

The eleven people said a brief farewell to Liu Laoliu and others who were left behind on the Sea Lion. Yu Xiaotian specifically left a message that if they had not returned before dawn and there were signs of fighting on the island, Liu would be

Lao Liu should not wait for them any longer and take the boat back to Treasure Island immediately.

Liu Laoliu succeeded him and led everyone on the island to evacuate Treasure Island immediately and fled back to Funing to join Hun Jianglong.

Liu Laoliu shook his head and refused, but after being scolded by Yu Xiaotian, he had to nod and agree. Before Yu Xiaotian took people off the ship, he repeatedly told Yu Xiaotian and others to be more careful and to return safely.

.

Yu Xiaotian said nothing more, turned around and climbed down the side of the ship and landed in the sampan. With a wave of his hand, the two sampans quickly left the Sea Lion and headed towards Nanri Island under the oars of everyone.

.

The closest distance between the small desert island and Nanri Island is only a few hundred meters, but it is still two or three miles away from their scheduled landing place. The people on the two sampans stayed silent and followed each other, rowing with all their strength.

There is a paddle at the end of the sampan, and there is a person at the end of the sampan who is responsible for rocking the oar and controlling the course of the sampan.

Nanri Island is like a giant beast, entrenched in the sea. Under the weak moonlight, it looks gloomy and ferocious, giving people a depressing feeling.

Yu Xiaotian did not paddle, but stood in front of the sampan, scanning the island constantly, paying attention to all the shining places on the island.

According to the previous agreement between him and Fang An, Fang An will arrange for a trusted subordinate to light a lantern in the east area of ​​the island to guide them to the place to dock. This is also a key to their actions.

Once they don't find that Fang An sent someone to light the lantern, it means that Fang An has been defeated before, or that Qian and Wang have been killed. The next thing they have to do is to quietly retreat immediately and return to Treasure Island.

Just pretend that nothing has happened, and even be prepared to evacuate Treasure Island at any time.

The two sampans gradually approached Nanri Island, but the people on the sampans never saw any lights on the island, so everyone was a little nervous and started to get a little anxious.

"Helmsman, there is no light on the island! Did something happen?" Ma Xiao asked Xiaotian in a low voice.

Yu Xiaotian raised his hand to stop both sampans, and searched the island carefully in front of the sampans. Li Er was sitting behind Yu Xiaotian, sweating all over his head in a hurry.

Because he also knew that if there was no light on the island to respond to them, it meant that Yu Xiaotian and the others would give up the operation. As Qian Song's subordinate, he had no right to demand that Yu Xiaotian must go to the island. After all, this involved

As for the fate of Xiaotian and so many of his subordinates.

However, he still refused to give up the idea of ​​saving Qian Song, and whispered to Xiaotian: "Master Yu, maybe there is something wrong with the person who came to take care of you, please wait a little longer!"

Yu Xiaotian nodded to comfort Li Er and said: "Don't worry, brother, let's wait and see before we talk!"

Time seemed to have frozen at this moment. The people on the two sampans were all full of energy, staring intently at the dark island. Everyone's mood was different.

Like Li Er, what he is looking forward to right now is to see the light come on. In that case, it means that they can continue to act.

Some people are not too keen on this trip and feel that it would be a good thing for them if the lights never come on. In this way, they don’t have to take the risk and can go back home comfortably.

Go back to sleep!

The waiting time felt long, and Yu Xiaotian also felt very uncomfortable. The person who expected to pick them up didn't turn on the light for a long time. He couldn't predict what happened, and even he couldn't predict it.

I started to feel a little drum inside my heart, and I couldn't help but want to give up, so I turned around and went back.

Just after they had waited for a full quarter of an hour, everyone's patience was almost exhausted, and even Yu Xiaotian himself was about to give up, when Li Er suddenly pulled Yu Xiaotian's clothes from behind and made a sound

They were all a little trembling and shouted in a low voice: "Master Yu, look, where is it! Where is it! There is light!"

Yu Xiaotian quickly looked in the direction of Li Er's finger, and sure enough, a light lit up halfway up the mountainside at the eastern end of the dark Nanri Island.

After Yu Xiaotian saw this light spot, he immediately waved his hand forward. At this moment, everyone cheered up again and began to paddle hard, rock the oar, and drive two

The sampan moved quickly towards the bright light.

The waves crashed against the rocks on the seaside, making a roaring sound. The tide rushed to the beach, leaving behind a patch of white foam, which looked a bit cold under the moonlight.

Two sampans rushed directly to the beach, and several black figures jumped from the sampans onto the beach one after another, stepping on the wet sand, following a short figure, and ran towards the shore.

Although Li Er is not tall, he runs very fast. His short legs are thrown away and he runs forward like a wheel, so that the people behind him have to tighten their legs to keep up.

His speed.

Yu Xiaotian was very nervous at the moment. While running forward after Li Er, he raised his ears to search for all the sounds coming from the air, analyzing possible abnormal noises, and his eyes kept searching in all directions, for fear of this.

At that moment, a group of figures suddenly appeared from all around.

The person who came to pick them up appeared a lot late. Yu Xiaotian didn't know what happened. If Fang An failed and the news that he wanted to bring someone to rescue Qian and Wang was revealed,

Then he and these men will be in trouble today.

So after landing, Yu Xiaotian felt that his nerves were about to break, and even his body felt a little stiff.

But Li Er didn't think so much at all. After landing, he ran straight to the place where the lights were on, thinking only about rushing to the Dead Man's Cave and rescuing Qian and Wang.

When everyone's feet hit the ground, they made a dense snapping sound, which sounded like rolling thunder to everyone's ears, making people a little scared.

However, after they landed and ran for quite a distance, nothing unusual happened. The entire eastern coast of Nanri Island was completely silent.

In this era, night raids are actually very difficult and risky. Even on land, marching at night is very easy to lose your way and disperse the team, ultimately leading to the failure of the operation.

Therefore, in ancient times, those who dared to take risks to carry out night raids were either geniuses or genius fools. There were only a handful of cases where night raids were truly successful.

Therefore, the ancients were relatively lax in taking precautions at night. Once successful, it would be very successful, otherwise it would be a complete failure.

Not to mention conducting night raids at sea. Ships sometimes lose their way when sailing on the sea during the day. At night, the shore is full of rocks, so ships have to take great risks when docking.

If you are not careful, let alone a sneak attack on others, you may hit the rocks and be stranded. You will kill yourself without waiting for a sneak attack on others.

Therefore, it is much more difficult to conduct a sneak attack at sea than on shore, so people like pirates will not be very vigilant at night.

But for what Yu Xiaotian led people to do this time, the island has great advantages, but it also has many disadvantages. Originally, Nanri Island was relatively large, covering an area of ​​dozens of square kilometers. Although the Shark Gang

There are a lot of manpower, but the total number of people is only about a thousand. It is not an easy task to set up sentries everywhere on the island.

In addition, the Shark Gang's Dazhai is located in the northwest corner of the island, twenty miles away from the easternmost point of the island. Their defense focus is basically concentrated on the northwest corner of the island and the sea on the north side of the island.

Therefore, it is unlikely that too many manpower will be left to guard the eastern end of the island.

This created good conditions for Yu Xiaotian, trading space for time! This is also the reason why he dared to bring people to take risks. If it were a relatively small island, Yu Xiaotian asked himself, it is really not necessarily the case

Do you have the guts to lead people to do this kind of thing?

Li Er is very familiar with the terrain in this area. It seems that he has been active in this area a lot before. This makes Yu Xiaotian a little doubtful as to how this guy can be so familiar with the situation in this area to the east of Nanri Island.

Under his leadership, everyone hurried all the way, and soon arrived at a hillside dozens of meters above sea level. Here, there was a natural depression sunk into the mountain.

The bright light that Yu Xiaotian and the others saw on the sea just now was emitted here. The person who responded to them chose this place very well. They lit a lantern in the depression and the light could be seen on the sea, but the surrounding areas in the depression were

The wall blocks the divergence of the light. Even if it is near this place, it is difficult to see the light emanating parallel to it. This reduces the possibility of being discovered.

When Yu Xiaotian followed Li Er and rushed here, he may have heard their footsteps. The lights in the depression immediately went out. A man appeared in front of them holding a knife and shouted in a low voice: "Who

?”
