Chapter 163: Expansion 13
Night began to fall, and slowly into the middle of the night, the busy people began to fall asleep, only the patrolmen who looked more fireproof, yawned and patrolled back and forth in some critical places.
Then, these patrolmen were quietly killed by the killers, and then they continued to patrol with a swagger, and under their cover, a large number of killers infiltrated densely.
These killers did not stay in the harbor for long, and all of them quietly climbed onto the ships moored in the harbor.
After a while, these killers who climbed into the sea ship quietly returned to the port, and then moved towards the key places of the port one by one.
Zhao Hu didn't go to the port town, and the leaders of those sailors were handed over to Wang Rui, a middle- and high-ranking assassin. Even if the leaders of those sailors were powerful warriors, and their guards were all elites, in the hands of Wang Rui, who could catch the thirteen lords, there would definitely be no surprises.
Zhao Hu controlled the important level of the killers, and then swaggered into the port with a hundred powerful warriors.
The samurai lined up in a neat line, and marched towards the naval camp with torches.
With such a neat and loud footstep, the sailors in the camp naturally woke up.
Because Zhao Hu wanted to subdue these lower-level sailors. So they didn't let the killers attack them at night, and they didn't disturb them.
The purpose of leading a hundred samurai to attack the camp of these thousands of sailors was to show their own strength, so that these sailors could surrender convincingly.
After all, using intrigue to win always makes people not so obedient, and it feels like you, the winner, are out of shit luck and too bad.
And defeating the opponent head-on in the open and honest can make the opponent, even if he is not convinced, his heart is also convinced, once he surrenders and is captured, there is always not so much resentment.
And if Zhao Hu wants to control this port city and wants to turn these lower-level naval armies into his own use, then he naturally has to defeat the other party head-on and show the Zhao family's ability to everyone in this city, which is not only conducive to controlling the city and the naval army, but also conducive to the control of the entire Donghai County in the near future.
Therefore, the thousands of sailors who stayed behind quickly became vigilant under the reprimand and command of the grassroots officers.
It was a habit for them to rush to the dock to board the ship as soon as they noticed something was wrong. After all, they are sailors, and they always feel like something is missing when they are not on the ship.
But before they could run out of the camp gate, they found torches on all sides, and it was obvious that their camp was surrounded by enemies who didn't know how to sneak in! Looking at the torches all around, it's clear that there are quite a few enemies! At least thousands of people!
As soon as they felt this, the sailors developed the habit of being on the ship, and naturally subconsciously gathered together in the ship, waiting for the order of the first mate or the commando leader.
As for weapons? There is no shortage of these sailors, all of them are one-color swords.
Thousands of knives are a mess in an army that mostly uses spears.
But this is normal, what else can the navy use without using a sword? Moreover, what the navy does is a sea business, and the money is rolling in, and the upper echelons of the navy are naturally willing to equip their subordinates with war knives, because if they are not equipped with war knives, their own subordinates will not have the slightest combat effectiveness at all!
With the sword in hand, and then looking at the thirty-seven phalanxes, looking at the dense human heads and the bright blades, the courage of the East China Sea troops began to climb step by step.
Although they are not very good at land combat, so many companions, all of them are equipped with a war knife, it is really bullish to look at, and the collective strength makes them naturally full of fighting spirit.
The chief officers and commando captains of the thirty-seven phalanxes all looked out of the camp gate with solemn faces, looking at the neatly moving partners, getting closer and closer with the sound of neat footsteps.
No wonder their faces are ugly, they are all middle-level personnel, and they naturally know how huge and prosperous this Great Wilderness Port is, and they also know how much their East China Sea Army has prepared and protected this Great Wilderness Port.
But now, unconsciously letting so many enemies block the camp gate, not only shows how many enemies are invading this time, but also shows that the other party has been planning for a long time, otherwise I really can't believe that such a large army attacked at night, and the East China Sea Army didn't notice any clues.
It's just that who is this enemy? Which lord of Tokai County is it? How could they be so unwise? When he was confronting the Zhao family, he actually came to attack the neutral East China Sea army, is this a preparation to relieve worries in advance?
It seems that the preparations for this expedition are aimed at the thirteen lords! It's a pity that the confidentiality work is not in place, so let the family start first!
The bigwigs of the East China Sea Army didn't say who they were going to fight against for the sake of secrecy! So now that they have been attacked, these middle and lower-level sailors will naturally only think in the direction of those lords of Donghai County, who would have thought that the Zhao family, which is separated by a long road, would come to attack them!
The hundred warriors led by Zhao Hu, under the escort of hundreds of killers hidden in the shadows, came to the gate of the barracks with a grin.
No wonder Zhao Hu is so calm, because he knows the military camp in front of him, don't look at the appearance of having three or four thousand sailors.
In addition, it is extravagant to equip all the samurai swords that can only be equipped by samurai and personal guards in the land family.
But they had no spears or bows and arrows.
It's very simple, how can it be convenient to jump ship and fight with a spear? And what about bows and arrows?
This thing is very expensive, and the rattan bow that the land family likes to use is definitely not in the assembly series of the navy.
The bows and arrows used by the navy are all heavy bows, and they are definitely heavy bows with a range of more than 100 meters and can also pierce armor.
This is also a helpless thing, like the rattan bow with a range of only thirty or forty meters, which can't pierce armor, and fights at a distance of 100 meters at sea, how can it be played?
And the heavy bow? Since it is a sharp weapon, it naturally has to be kept well.
When there is no peep at the enemy, this heavy bow is separated by bow chords. The bow body is soaked in tung oil with a retainer, and the string is placed in a lime box.
The reason for this is naturally that the sea is very humid, and it will not take long for the adjusted bow to slacken.
After the Zhao family's killers captured or killed the sailors who stayed on the sea ship, these precious heavy bows had all fallen into Zhao Hu's hands.
As for the sailors on the opposite side who had a samurai * sword, not to mention Zhao Hu, even Zhao Hu's hundred samurai were not in his eyes.
Why so? It's too simple, but they know that in the East China Sea Army, the most powerful guys are the captains, and the rest of the first mates, commando captains, etc., are just guys with a little bit of force.
Since there is no powerful warrior, even if it is 10,000 elite soldiers, his own hundred powerful warriors can definitely cut them down in three or two strokes, otherwise he really thinks that powerful warriors have such a high social status for nothing!
The first mate and the commando leader of the thirty-seven teams saw that there were only a hundred enemies outside the camp who were armed only with samurai swords.
Then I got annoyed.
They don't think that these hundred enemies are samurai, Zhao Hu's subordinates are all lurking, and no one will be idiotic enough to appear in the standard samurai uniform of the Zhao family.
They are all dressed in different colors of ronin costumes, and the only thing they are uniformly equipped with is the red cloth and white circle dragon armband on their arms.
Although this thing is specially designed to identify the killer, the warriors of the Zhao family also liked it very much after knowing that this thing existed.
After all, if you think about a samurai, whether it looks good with a pole on his back and a flag, or an armband on his arm, you can know why the samurai like it.
The first mate and commando captain of the East China Sea Army, and even their sailors are all furious!
I was actually scared before! it! I was actually scared by this hundred ronins who didn't know how to sneak in! Depend on! What a shame for the East China Sea Army!
"Kill them!" I don't know who shouted. Thousands of sailors drew their swords and rushed towards the camp gate with great momentum.
Zhao Hu smiled, moved a few steps to the side, and several killers quickly set up a small curtain for Zhao Hu, stacking chairs, low tables, hot tea, snacks, and enjoying the night view.
As soon as this trick comes out, it is really eye-catching. A row of torches surrounded Zhao Hu, and with such a facility, idiots knew that this was a big man!
Definitely the first place for all enemies to strike!
It's just that Zhao Hu was very indifferent, and the killers guarding him were vigilantly watching the surroundings, while the morale of the hundred warriors soared to the extreme.
Because of the appearance of the lord, he definitely believes that his people can kill the enemy, and believes that he will never let the enemy touch a single hair of his hair!
I was excited in my heart, but the expression on my face remained the same, after all, these hundred warriors could be said to be the first to follow Zhao Hu, and naturally they were also trained by Zhao Hu for the longest time!
They quickly lined up in five rows, each with 20 samurai.
As the sailors rushed over with red eyes and swords in their hands, the 20 samurai in the first row directly slashed out several sword qis, either transparent or white and dim, and shot towards the sailors.
The 20 samurai in the first row performed a move, and immediately split two columns and ran from the side to the back. The 20 samurai in the back row automatically stepped forward, and they also drew their swords and slashed out with a few swords.
In this way, the samurai in the fifth row, taking turns to split the sword qi, do not need much, just one move, and then run to the back to store the qi, and wait for their turn to make a move.
This kind of five-round attack can completely allow them to store enough qi they need, and they won't be tired at all, as long as their body can withstand it, they can take turns all the time.
