Daming pirates

Chapter 188: Ambush

After learning that the Sea Wolf was going to temporarily evacuate all the people on the island, some stubborn old people refused to leave at any cost, thinking that this was their home and their fields were here, even if they died.

Guarding their fields and their homes, Yu Xiaotian didn't force such stubborn people to do anything. He let them go. People have the right to choose life and death. Since they don't want to live, then this is not the case.

We can't blame him for abandoning Yu Xiaotian.

So when the officers and soldiers began to search the island, they still captured more than a hundred old people in various villages. After interrogation, these islanders were sure that the sea wolf had abandoned this place. Even the young and strong islanders on the island,

They all followed and left together. Only the old bones like them were unwilling to leave, so they stayed.

At this time, Yu Zigao and Zhang Jiace's mental arithmetic was completely put into their stomachs. The information obtained through interrogation confirmed that Sea Wolf was determined not to want this Nanri Island anymore, and even the islanders on the island were taken with them.

Now that they are gone, what do they have to worry about?

So without any hint from them, the captured old men were beheaded by the officers and soldiers and became the trophies of the officers and soldiers.

As for the villages on the islands, they were naturally searched from top to bottom by the officers and soldiers. As long as there was anything of any value, they were all taken away by the officers and soldiers. The remaining houses were even burned down by the officers and soldiers.

clean.

On the top of a hill in the eastern mountains, under the cover of the woods, several people squatted in the woods, set up a high-power monocular telescope, and silently observed the situation on the island.

This kind of telescope is actually the magnification type of an ordinary monocular telescope. It has a relatively high magnification and can see farther. However, because the lens is difficult to make, Seawolf has just produced it on a trial basis, but the clarity is incomparable with later generations of telescopes.

However, in this era, it is already considered a black technology, which is enough to allow users to see far away places through the lens, even if they cannot see clearly, they can still see roughly.

"Damn, these damn officers and soldiers are worse than the bandits! I really want to kill them now and let them see how powerful we are!" A soldier wearing a Sea Wolf Army uniform grabbed a new weapon.

After looking at the Wolf Fang rifles issued to them through binoculars, they couldn't help but cursed.

Another soldier immediately came to the telescope and looked through the eyepiece. Several villages in the distance were already burning with raging fires. From the lens, they could even see the nearest village.

The officers and soldiers inside dragged out several people and pulled them outside the village. They beheaded them with a loud bang, and the headless corpses fell to the ground with a thud.

So the soldier also let go of the telescope, sighed softly, patted the soldier who spoke and said: "Don't worry, Liu! When it's time to take action, I will definitely let you have a good time!"

Although we don't know the boss's arrangements, we can almost guess that the boss wants to stabilize these officers and soldiers first, and then take action!

The navy must take action first. After killing the fleet of officers and soldiers, they will block these officers and soldiers on the island. Only then will we take action.

Didn’t the boss say that now? Let them take some advantage by taking some losses, and then let them return it with profits! Okay, did you see some officers and soldiers coming this way?

Let’s not be idle and prepare quickly! Don’t let them enter the mountain and discover our camp!”

Sure enough, a dozen officers and soldiers, led by a man who looked like an officer, left a village that was already on fire at the foot of the mountain and walked towards the mountain, seemingly intending to search the mountain.

During the first day of extensive searches, the officers and soldiers focused primarily on the villages on the island and did not pay attention to the large mountainous area in the eastern part of Nanri Island.

Now these villages have been searched from top to bottom by the army, and nothing of value can be found. They then start to focus on the mountainous areas in the east. Some people think that even the sea wolves took away most of them.

Islanders, but there must be some islanders who will not leave. Maybe they will hide in the mountains and wait for them to leave before continuing to farm.

The attachment of the common people to the land is unimaginable. Now the officers and soldiers see that a large area of ​​farmland has been reclaimed on the island, and it is difficult for the common people to give up here easily, so there must be many people who will not leave here easily, but

They didn't dare to stay in the village, so they were probably hiding in the mountainous area on the east side of the island.

If these islanders can be found, it is estimated that they will bring some soft things with them. What interests them most is that they may be able to capture many women.

The officers and soldiers have no military discipline to speak of. They are worse than the bandits to some extent. They finally got to the island, but now they have caught nothing, not even a woman. How can they be willing to do so?

Some officers and soldiers walked excitedly towards the mountainous area, wanting to search the mountain to see if they could be lucky enough to catch some islanders, and preferably some women, so that they could at least have fun!

So some officers and soldiers' scouts began to enter the mountain one after another and began to search.

Li Er was covered with tree branches and had a straw hat made of withered straw on his head. He was lying on a grass slope in the ravine. If you didn't get closer and take a closer look, you wouldn't be able to spot him at all.

Around him, there were also several soldiers dressed like him lying down. Each of them was camouflaged with various branches and dead grass collected on the spot, covering their figure tightly. Even if they were walking from the valley,

When you walk up to them, it's difficult to spot their existence if you don't look carefully.

Among these people, some were holding a crossbow, while others were holding a wolf-fang rifle. They all held their breath and looked down the valley.

At this time, a small group of official horse scouts were walking into the mountains. Because they were going to the island to fight this time, it was inconvenient to carry war horses. Basically, the official scouts did not bring horses, and they only brought a small number of horses to the generals.

Fujian itself is very short of horses, and the number of war horses equipped by the army is also very small. Therefore, it is not surprising that the army scouts in the south mostly move on foot.

The scouts of these officers and soldiers were obviously not cautious, nor did they have any consciousness of scouts. They did not form a fighting formation at all, but a group of people filed into the valley loosely, occasionally looking around, and chatting and laughing from time to time.

It seems like traveling.

Looking at the performance of these military scouts, Li Er curled his lips, biting a piece of withered grass in his mouth, stretched out the crossbow a little forward, and through Wangshan began to slowly lock on the enemy who was only a few meters away from them.

The officer among the ten paces of officers and soldiers exploring the horse.

When he started to move, the other soldiers also took out their weapons and began to lock on their targets.

Li Er is now the captain of the scout team of the first battalion of the Army. Although the scout team only has one platoon of personnel, his military rank is lieutenant, which is the same level as the company commander, while all of his scouts are

A noncommissioned officer is at least a sergeant, and some even hold the rank of second lieutenant.

These people are all elites selected from each company, and each has some special skills. Some are good at tracking, some are good at setting traps, some are good at using strong bows and crossbows, and some are good at close combat, so they are

They were selected and formed into a scout team, tasked with conducting special tasks such as reconnaissance and sneak attacks.

These scout teams of each battalion are battalion-affiliated scouts of the Army. They are regarded as exclusive special operations forces at the battalion level. They are definitely elite personnel in the Army. However, they are not as powerful as the special operations team directly controlled by Yu Xiaotian.

It's still a little weak, but as a scout, it's fully qualified.

Li Er was transferred from the company. Otherwise, he would be at least the commander of a company now, and might even be the deputy battalion commander. However, Li Er was very unhappy with the decision to transfer him and let him lead this scout team.

Satisfied, he had always wanted to do something like this, and now he got what he wanted.

The First Battalion was left behind on Nanri Island this time. As a scout team, he naturally had to shoulder the responsibility of monitoring and protecting the surroundings of the camp to prevent their camp from being discovered by the army.

From the moment the officers and soldiers landed on the island, they closely monitored the actions of the officers and soldiers. Just now, the scouts on the mountain used small glass lenses to reflect the sunlight and notified the officers and soldiers of their arrival, so they set off in advance before the officers and soldiers entered the mountain.

An ambush was set up on the road, ready to intercept the army's scouts.

The group of officers and soldiers who entered the mountain were unaware of their current situation, and they still walked casually towards the mountain. They never thought that the god of death had already stared at them. As they walked on the road, they were still talking to each other.

They were bragging, telling some dirty jokes, and talking about how many women they had played with.

At this moment, a bang was heard suddenly on the hillside not far from them, followed immediately by a slight sound of breaking through the air.

The commander who was walking in the middle of the team suddenly became nervous. Just when he was about to call out something bad, a sharp crossbow arrow flew in front of him with a whoosh and was nailed to his throat without any bias.

.

The commander-in-chief of the scouts immediately covered his throat with both hands, grumbled a few times, rolled his eyes white, and fell to the ground on his back.

At this time, these officers and soldiers were frightened and hurriedly looked around. Some people exclaimed: "Enemy attack! Be on guard!" They wanted to find traces of the enemy, but at this moment, from the hillside beside them, they began to fly at the same time.

He fired the crossbow arrows and knocked some of them to the ground one after another.

The injured officers and soldiers immediately let out shrill screams, clutching their wounds and struggling on the ground. The few remaining officers, soldiers and scouts were so frightened that they turned around and ran away from the mountain.

They already knew that there was a group of people here who wanted to ambush them, and what was even more terrifying was that they did not find the enemy's figure and continued to stay in the valley, just waiting to die. The wisest thing to do at this time was to leave this place quickly.

He died and ran out to report the news.

(Haha, I see my old brother generously rewarding me again! Thank you very much!)
