Chapter 335: Knowing Yourself and Knowing Your Opponent, Invincible in a Hundred Battles (First Update)
"Big boss, if you want me to say that we might as well escape!"
Kuroko looked frustrated and sighed.
It's no wonder that he looks down on this battle. It was not that they had not fought against the officers and soldiers before, but they were all rabble. An integrated army like the Franc fleet has never been fought.
Haikou seems to be ferocious, but they are all bullies who are afraid of the hard, and they shrink their eggs when they encounter real hard bones.
"Run? Where to flee? ”
Li Dan looked at Kuroko coldly, his face full of anger.
Kuroko is considered to be his earliest brother, and even said that he would run for his life, what would the other brothers think?
"You can escape anywhere, there are many small islands like Wuzhushan Island nearby, let's occupy another one."
Kuroko obviously also felt that the big boss was looking at him with a bad face, and swallowed and said weakly.
"There are naturally many small islands like this, but how much work has taken us to manage this island to the way it is. Besides, there are only a handful of islands with such a good location! ”
Li Dan glared at Heizi fiercely, angry and angry.
His words are not bad, Zhonghaikou does treat Wuzhushan Island as their own home, and it is difficult to develop to the scale of Wuzhushan Island if it is not three or five years to change islands.
Moreover, Wuzhushan Island has an excellent geographical location, and if you want to go to the South Seas, you have to pass through it. This is also the reason why they have been able to intercept merchant ships repeatedly.
"Scar, tell me about it."
Li Dan set his eyes on Scarface again.
Although he has never liked this old subordinate very much. This person is unruly and impulsive. But for now, it's clear that Scarface is more suitable to stand up and cheer everyone on.
Sure enough, Scarface sneered: "Big boss, let's wait here for work, are you still afraid of these Francophone people?" ”
"Good!"
Li Dan was overjoyed when he heard this, and stepped forward to pat Scarface's shoulder and said, "I knew that Brother Scar was a brave man." There are five or six hundred people who can fight on the whole island, guarding various strongholds, and it is impossible for the Franco-Rang people to fight them. What's more, we still have the Red Yi Cannon. ”
This Hongyi cannon was first intercepted by him from a Spanish sea ship, a total of four, and was later unloaded and installed on Wuzhushan Island by Li Dan's people.
These cannons are extremely powerful, but they are generally difficult to fight in the field because they are bulky, and they are extremely easy to defend the city.
"Yes, big boss, besides, there are many reefs here, who knows except our people? Those Franc people are not familiar with this place, and there is a great possibility that they will run aground. When the time comes, hehe..."
Scarface laughed dryly, revealing a row of big yellow teeth.
"Well, even so-and-so, he will say the words in front, and those who dare to escape will not be forgiven!"
When everyone heard this, they all looked at each other, and they didn't dare to come out.
Li Dan is an emperor-like existence on Wuzhushan Island, and his words are holy decrees.
"Boss, just say, what do you need the brothers to do!"
Scarface patted his chest and took the initiative to ask for help.
Li Dan nodded, stroked his beard and said, "Brother Scar, you are the most courageous, so you can hold the Black Stone Corner, is it enough to bring one hundred and fifty people?" ”
Scar nodded: "Enough, there is also a Hongyi cannon in Heishijiao, and Lao Tzu will kill his mother directly." ”
The sea cowards burst into laughter.
Li Dan pressed down with both hands, signaling everyone to be quiet.
"Blackstone Point is the key to the North Island, and there is no room for error. Then I will give you another fifty men, and you will take two hundred men to guard the Black Rock Corner. ”
After saying that, Li Dan turned his gaze to the sunspot again.
"Heizi, the west side will be guarded for you, and you will lead a hundred people to guard Hongluo Bay."
Kuroko was still ashamed of Fang Cai's suggestion to escape, and replied with a red face.
"As for the east side, so-and-so will guard it himself."
Li Dan's eyes narrowed, and a fine light shot out.
This war is a matter of life and death for the entire island of Wuzhushan Island, and it must be won!
......
......
On the deck of the flagship of the Franc aircraft, a young man in a Suzhou silk robe held a monocular and watched intently.
After a long time, he put down his binoculars and said with a slight smile: "Governor Silva, I'm afraid this Wuzhu Mountain Island is not easy to attack." ”
Silva nodded and said, "What the Ning County Order said is extremely true, the terrain of this Wuzhushan Island is steep, the north island is high, the south island is low, and the south is a reef that is not easy to dock. If you want to attack, you can only attack from the north, west, and east. ”
He took a breath and paused, "The north side is the highest, with a black stone corner, and it is a fortress built against the mountain. There is also a large general's cannon here. ”
Silva used the Ming name for artillery, so that Ning Xiu could understand it more easily.
Ning Xiu smiled and said, "Actually, we also call it the Red Yi Cannon. ”
Silva's face changed, and he said embarrassedly: "It's better to call it the Great General Cannon." ”
He continued: "To the west is Hongluo Bay, which is also equipped with a fortress and a large general's cannon, which is relatively easy to attack, but here is a shoal where large ships cannot dock, and if small boats attack with troops, the battle damage will be great. ”
"As for the east side, there are the most forts on the island, and there are two general cannons, and the stockade of this group of pirates is here."
After Silva finished speaking in one breath, Ning Xiuzhi was full of admiration.
This Silva was a man of soldiers by nature, so it is no wonder that he can be the governor.
Although he only exterminated a group of pirates, he ordered someone to find out such detailed information in advance.
The art of war is cloudy, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, and not being defeated in a hundred battles.
It seems that the Francophile also understands this principle.
"So, where does the Governor think we're going to attack from?"
Ning Xiu smiled slightly.
"North."
Silva said almost without thinking.
"To the east is where the Haikou stockade is located, which is bound to be heavily guarded, and there are two artillery pieces here, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack."
"Although the terrain to the west is flat, it is shallow, and it is impractical to transport troops by small boats. The only way to attack is from the north. ”
"But the governor also said that the north side is the highest."
"My men have found a cave in the cliff to the north, and if they can send people there, they can climb up to deal a fatal blow to the pirates."
Ning Xiu was stunned, this Silva's scout could even detect this kind of detail, it was too powerful.
"Blackstone Point is high, and they can only hit far away, not close. All we had to do was send a boat to approach the reef under Blackstone Point at night, and climb down to the cave. ”
"But these pirates must also know that there is a cave under this black stone corner, so it can't be completely unguarded, right?"
Ning Xiu said worriedly.
"They have limited manpower, and it is impossible for them to send heavy troops to guard a cave."
Silva swore that "it would be foolish if they did send hundreds of men in one cave." ”
Silva pointed in the direction of the island, "And then I will send suspicious troops to feint to the west and east to distract the pirates and overwhelm them." ”
"Where is Ben County going to attack?"
"Why don't you order Ning County to supervise the battle in the east?"
"Good!"
