Chapter 887: Recovering Ryukyu Island

"Woo woo woo ......"

As soon as the sky dawned, the sea began to sound with horns! Nearly 200 warships of the Dongjiang Army and Naval Division slowly left the port and sailed into the depths of the vast sea.

Mao Wenlong held a telescope and stood on the bow of the ship to look into the distance, the rising sun rendering the sea golden yellow. The calm wind and waves are a good time to sail to the sea, the time and place are favorable, and the Dongjiang army is occupied, and this time it is destined to be doomed.

Ryukyu Island and Fujian are across the sea, and the Dongjiang Army reached the waters of Ryukyu Island after only half a day's voyage. The warships of the Dongjiang Army slowed down, and more than 100 hot air balloons were ready to take off at any time.

However, there were no Japanese warships in the waters of Ryukyu Island. Seeing this, Mao Wenlong already knew in his heart that this would-be robber must have known that he was invincible, so he simply abandoned the ship and prepared to fight the Dongjiang army on the island for a life-and-death battle.

A guard hurriedly came and conveyed the news from the reconnaissance ship to Mao Wenlong. According to the investigation, there are indeed no Japanese warships in the waters of Ryukyu Island.

Mao Wenlong waved his hand to retreat from the guards, snorted coldly and said with a sneer: "It's just a dying mouse." ”

Cheng Zuo said with some concern: "Chief soldier, the Japanese are clearly aware that they are invincible at sea, and now they are all hiding on the island, we need to end this battle as soon as possible, it seems that it cannot be achieved." ”

Mao Wenlong didn't think so, he shook his head and smiled: "Don't worry, there are more than 100 hot air balloons, even if the widows hide underground, it's useless." ”

After a pause, Mao Wenlong then ordered: "Pass the order, and the whole army will advance at full speed." All the hot air balloons are lifted into the air, acting as a vanguard to open the way for the warship, and once you find anything wrong, don't be polite, hit hard. ”

"Yes, Commander!" Cheng Zuo immediately surrendered his order, and then said goodbye and left.

The horn of the attack sounded, and dozens of warships began to appear on the east side of the island, and as far as the eye could see, the island could already be seen in the distance.

The Dongjiang Army finally sounded the horn of attack, and under the cover of the hot air balloon in the air, rushed to Ryukyu Island without the slightest scruples.

"Boom ......"

The artillery erected on the high ground on Ryukyu Island began to roar, and black shells rushed into the sky and smashed into the rapidly approaching Dongjiang Army warships.

The warships of the Dongjiang Army were far from being within the range of the Japanese artillery, but the Japanese artillery opened fire early. At a glance, it can be seen that the Japanese are really nervous, otherwise such a low-level mistake will definitely not be made.

However, on the battlefield, a mistake can mean defeat or death. The hot air balloons floating in the air did not give these artillery guns their own exposed coordinates the possibility of firing a second shot.

The fire oil and gunpowder jars smashed down overwhelmingly, and the turrets that exposed their coordinates turned into a sea of fire in an instant.

Without the threat of artillery fire, the warships of the Dongjiang Army drove straight in, and the guns on the warships directly razed the turrets surrounded by fire after entering the firing range.

Under the heavy artillery fire, the first line of defense on the coast was completely destroyed. Hot air balloons are still searching everywhere for enemy tracks, but the warships of the Dongjiang Army have docked, and a large number of soldiers have begun to land on Ryukyu Island.

There was only one artillery defense, which was obviously not what the Japanese should have. At first, when he ordered the whole army to land, Mao Wenlong hesitated.

If it weren't for the fact that the hot air balloon in the air couldn't detect any enemy traces, Mao Wenlong really wouldn't have risked landing like this. The Dongjiang Army soon landed successfully with all its members, and there was no further interference in between.

Mao Wenlong was very surprised, and he really couldn't understand what the idea of the would-be robbers was? Giving up this first line of defense so easily, confusion entangled in Mao Wenlong's heart, and it lingered for a while.

Cheng Zuo also frowned and asked Mao Wenlong for instructions: "Chief soldier, the Japanese invaders let us land on Ryukyu Island so easily, will there be anything greasy in this?" ”

Mao Wenlong shook his head and smiled bitterly: "There must be cats, but in the face of the absolute strength of the Dongjiang Army, all conspiracies are just useless." Of course, we should not take it lightly, and give the order that the whole army should first thoroughly investigate all the places on the coast. Until you make sure that you are right and then push into the depths, no one is allowed to be greedy for merit, lest you fall for the tricks of the Japanese robbers. ”

"Yes, Commander!" Cheng Zuo gave up his order, and then stepped back to convey Mao Wenlong's order.

The Dongjiang Army, which had already landed, soon set up camp in a safe place, and Mao Wenlong followed suit. Personally went down to inspect the fortifications of the camp, and everything was going on in an orderly manner.

Mao Wenlong's steady and steady style really made those hiding robbers very helpless. When Taro Shinno, who was hiding in the old forests in the mountains, learned about the style of the Dongjiang Army, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"General, this Dongjiang Army is obviously going to fight a protracted war with us, what should we do now?" A one-eyed man asks Taro Shinno for instructions.

"We still follow the arrangements we have made in advance and act on the opportunity. And those arrows that can shoot down hot air balloons, have they ever been arranged? Taro Shinno said suddenly.

"General Qiyu, everything is ready, as long as the hot air balloon of the Dongjiang Army dares to step into the place where we are ambushed. Will definitely give them a big surprise. The one-eyed man replied with a sneer.

"Okay, the preparations for the past few days, success or failure are here, only success and failure are allowed." Taro Shinno turned around suddenly, and his vicious gaze fell directly on the one-eyed man.

The latter trembled slightly, and hurriedly promised: "Please rest assured, if your subordinates are defeated, they will definitely not survive." ”

"Hmph, go down and make arrangements, remember, if you are defeated, you will not only die. Think more about your children and those wives in your family......" Taro Shinno's words were like a sharp knife stabbing directly into the heart of the one-eyed man.

The latter's face changed even more at this time, and he didn't dare to hesitate in the slightest, and the one-eyed man snorted. Then he hurriedly retreated and left.

Looking at the back of the one-eyed man leaving, Taro Shinno's face was still gloomy. In fact, he had already expected in his heart that this time would be more than auspicious no matter what.

Mao Wenlong directly led the army to come, and there was no warning earlier. By the time Taro Shinno learned of the movements of the Dongjiang Army, it was already too late.

With the current power of Taro Shinno's side, even if he can play tricks, he will not be able to change the disparity in strength between the two sides in the end. It seems that the shadow of defeat has never left, and Taro Shinno's heart has never been calm.

Looking up at the sky outside, which had begun to gradually darken, Taro Shinno was completely shrouded in the shadow of death.
