Chapter 971: The Lonely Island Kills
Every detail of the shark fishing plan, before setting off, Shen Liangqiu had already been carefully deployed, and the people under his command knew what their respective tasks were.
In order to be surprised, not to be discovered by the black tiger shark on the island, the ship naturally did not go to the shore, all the people involved in the operation had to change to the water, and then dive to land, this matter is not a problem for the sailors, the East China Sea soldiers are all water rats, the water is excellent, to dive ashore is a piece of cake, but Wu Dalin's group of people is a little troublesome.
According to the plan, Wu Dalin and the others also had to go ashore to defend one side, but four of the ten people were not good at water.
Although Wu Dalin and the others were also from the military, they all fought on land and had never been trained in water.
Fortunately, Wu Dalin is familiar with the nature of the water, so he can only take five people to land together, Shen Liangqiu originally wanted to send a few people to Wu Dalin, but Qi Ning had already ordered to get a set of water for himself.
"Master Hou, you just wait on the ship, we don't know anything about the situation on the island, you can't take risks easily." When Shen Liangqiu saw that Qi Ning was also preparing to land, he hurriedly persuaded him.
Qi Ning smiled: "General Shen is too worried. There are a hundred of us, and all of them are fully armed, so no matter how powerful the black tiger shark is, can it still hurt me? You don't have to worry, everything goes according to plan. ”
Shen Liangqiu saw that Qi Ning insisted, and he also knew that there were many people on his side, and Qi Ning's own skills were not weak, so he didn't persuade much at the moment, and ordered to take water.
Qi Ning and the others changed into water supports, and then they went into the water one after another from the side of the boat, each of them had already brought their weapons, in addition to the big sword, half of them were also equipped with arrows.
The arrow is much easier to operate than the bow and arrow, and it is also a sharp weapon in the army, but because the production cost is higher than that of the bow and arrow, there is no large number of assembly in the army, and there are only a small number of crossbowmen in the various legions of the Chu State.
One of the assessments of the water nature of sailors is that they must not make a sound when they act in the water, so when these people under Shen Liangqiu's hands are in the water, they are really quiet, more water rats than water rats, although Wu Dalin and other guards are far from being able to compare with these sailors in the water, fortunately, it is already late at night at this time, and the wind and waves on the sea are also a lot bigger, especially when they are close to the shore, the waves beat to the shore from time to time, making a loud sound, so Wu Dalin and others make a sound even if they are in the water, It is also completely muffled by the sound of the waves.
Qi Ning's water nature is indeed very good, the sea is black and crowded, and everyone knows the location of the nameless island, so they naturally don't worry about going in the wrong direction.
It took more than half an hour to get close to the shore, according to the pre-plan, it was to be besieged on all sides, and the front side was to be handed over to Wu Dalin and others, so Shen Liangqiu and the others were about to land on the shore, separated left and right, and went around the island to other directions, which had been estimated in advance, and when the other three people arrived at the position and were ready, it would take more than half an hour, so to really start the action, it would be an hour later, that is, until the middle of the night.
At that time, it is also the time when the human body is most lax and weak, and once a surprise attack is launched, the possibility of catching the black tiger shark alive is much greater.
Qi Ning led Wu Dalin to the shore in the night, although it was still in the night, but the scene on the island can be roughly seen, the island is mostly bare rocks, but there are still some forests around, not how beautiful it is, but it also has a unique scenery.
The island was not big, there were some jungles and two protruding stone pinnacles in the center of the island, the stone pinnacles were not very high, but they were strange rocks, and Qi Ning knew that if the black tiger shark hid on the island, it would definitely hide in it.
According to Shen Liangqiu's plan, this group of people did not need to search forward, they only needed to stand by on the coast, and once the Black Tiger Shark and the others really fled to this side, they could catch turtles in the urn.
In addition to Qi Ning's group of people on the front, Shen Liangqiu also arranged for people to ambush the ship, and the two spies who had landed on the island before knew where the ship was hiding, so they took advantage of the night to touch the edge of the cave in front of them, and hid in the pile of rocks near the cave, all of them were hidden, waiting for the black tiger shark to appear.
Qi Ning and the others were waiting on the beach, and there were several large rocks on the beach, which could just be used as a cover to hide behind the rocks.
The moonlight was cold, and the waves rolled towards the shore from time to time, washing the beach, Qi Ning leaned against the rocks, looked at the waves rolling in the night, and listened to the sound of the tide, but it was also very comfortable.
Wu Dalin's primary duty is to protect Qi Ning's thoughtfulness, so he has always followed Qi Ning closely, and at this time he sat next to Qi Ning, he has never been a person who talks much, Qi Ning doesn't speak, and he doesn't dare to say more.
Suddenly, Qi Ning asked: "Commander Wu, you said that after the death of Lantai Zhilin, who is the most suitable person for me to take over as the Governor of the Water Division?" ”
Wu Dalin was transferred from the Yulin Battalion to the Black Scale Battalion as the deputy commander, and at this time, Qi Ning directly called him Commander Wu, but it was also a kind of respect for him.
Not many people know about the suicide of Shantai Zhilin, and Wu Dalin has not actually seen the body of Shantai Zhilin with his own eyes, but he follows Qi Ning every day, and the officials of the Criminal Department who accompanied him have already known about it, so Wu Dalin has already heard about it.
It's just that he didn't expect Qi Ning to suddenly ask him such a question, and he was stunned for a moment before he said: "Master Hou, it's not good to say that you are lowly ......!"
"Don't be afraid to talk to me." Qi Ning smiled and said: "You are from the army, you know the rules of the army better than me, and you have been a general for a long time, with ups and downs, and you have more insights into this kind of thing." ”
Wu Dalin hesitated for a moment before he said softly: "Master Hou, you have the courage to speak out." If there is a world-famous general in the imperial court, such as General Qi, no matter where the imperial court transfers such a famous general, the soldiers will not have anything to say. ”
General Qi naturally refers to Qi Jing, the deceased general of the Qinhuai Legion, who is a famous general who moves the world.
"Then do you think there are such generals in the DPRK?"
Wu Dalin wanted to speak and stopped, but seeing Qi Ning looking at him calmly, he was silent for a while, and finally said: "I think that except for the old marquis of the golden sword, it seems that the court and the central government are ...... No other general seems to have that much prestige. However, the old marquis of Tangtai is over seventy years old, and his health is not good, so it is impossible to take on the burden of the East China Sea Master. ”
"In other words, there is really no suitable candidate in the imperial court?"
"Master Hou, if a senior general in the army dies, the best way is not to transfer generals from outside, but to promote generals directly from the army." Wu Dalin said softly: "The people who are promoted in the army are very clear about the big and small things in the army, otherwise once the generals are transferred abroad, it may cause the army's morale to be unstable. ”
Qi Ning nodded slightly, Wu Dalin saw Qi Ning's demeanor, and knew that Qi Ning agreed with his words, and he was even more confident, and then said: "This time the Governor of Lantai passed away, and the situation is even more special. I only have one naval army in the East China Sea Division, and the generals of the naval division are no better than the generals of other legions. ”
"You have a point." Qi Ning agreed: "Then what do you think of Shen Liangqiu?" ”
Wu Dalin hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Actually, I think that if the East China Sea Army wants to promote one person to replace the governor of Lantai, no one is more suitable than Shen Liangqiu." ”
"What do you think?"
Wu Dalin nodded and said, "Yes." Shen Liangqiu was originally the deputy general of the Grand Governor, with outstanding talents, and he has always been trusted by the Grand Governor. When he entered the camp of the East China Sea Division before, it could be seen that those naval officers and soldiers were very in awe of Shen Liangqiu, and this General Shen must have a very high prestige in the East China Sea Division. This time to capture the black tiger shark, General Shen's plan was very thorough, and he was obviously very familiar with the environment of the East China Sea, so he felt that if he really wanted to find a suitable naval general to take over the post of Metropolitan Governor of the Naval Division, there was really no one more suitable than this General Shen. ”
Qi Ning was thoughtful, silent for a moment, and finally said: "You don't have much contact with him, even you have such feelings, I'm afraid that the East China Sea Division thinks so, if the imperial court decrees that General Shen will be the Metropolitan Governor of the Shuai Water Division, it should be regarded as the expectation of the East China Sea Division." ”
Wu Dalin said softly: "Master Hou, the imperial court has not issued an order to send a new metropolitan governor so far, if General Shen is really able to capture the black tiger shark this time, with this merit, maybe the imperial court will really consider it." Moreover, this Shen Liangqiu has a close relationship with the Tangtai family, and he can be regarded as a member of the Shantai family, if the old marquis of the Golden Knife ......!" Speaking of this, it seems that there is something inappropriate, and I dare not continue to say the following words.
Qi Ning patted him on the shoulder and said, "You can say whatever you want, there is no need to look ahead and backward." ”
"Yes." Wu Dalin lowered his voice and said: "The Lantai family never wants the hard work of their two generations of hard work to fall into the hands of others, so the old marquis of the golden knife will definitely fight for the candidate for the new governor of the capital, and he thinks that if General Shen takes over the post of governor of the capital, with the relationship between General Shen and the Tangtai family, the old marquis of Tangtai should not object." ”
Qi Ning didn't speak, just looked up at the night sky, thoughtful.
Time passed, and I don't know how long it took, Qi Ning suddenly faintly heard a killing sound, his face tightened, and he turned around and lay on the rock, his action immediately alerted Wu Dalin and the others, and they clenched the handle of the knife in their hands, and lay behind the rock to look at the center of the island.
Qi Ning's ear power is amazing, and it is natural to be the first to find it, at this time, Wu Dalin has actually noticed it, his expression is cold, and he lowered his voice and said: "Master Hou, they have already made a move, it seems that the black tiger shark is really on the island." ”
Even if the ship was found on the island before, everyone could not completely conclude that there must be someone on the island, and it was the black tiger shark, but now that they heard the sound of killing, everyone knew in their hearts that there was no doubt that there was someone on the island.
