Chapter 109: Retaking Kawashima
That night, two small boats sent the four of them to the vicinity of Shangchuan Island and Xiachuan Island respectively, and Zu Qingzhi took Huang Songsheng to dive underwater.
Huang Songsheng couldn't see anything in the sea, so he let Zu Qingzhi pull him to sneak, and in less than a stick of incense, the two found a nowhere to go ashore. Zu Qingzhi didn't speak, and walked towards the center of the island with Huang Songsheng swaggering.
Huang Songsheng followed behind and was terrified, this person was too bold, didn't he know that the entire Xiachuan Island was on high alert now?
But after following Zu Qing for a while, he didn't see a single sentry, Huang Songsheng felt more and more strange, didn't there be anyone patrolling the island?
Just when Huang Songsheng was thinking wildly, Zu Qingzhi suddenly pointed to a coconut grove in the distance and said: "General Huang, there is a person hidden under that coconut tree, it seems that it should be your former subordinate, you go over and take a look." ”
Huang Songsheng glanced at Zu Qingzhi with some doubts, stepped forward suspiciously, and was just about to approach the coconut tree, when suddenly a person sprang out from behind the tree, and a short knife stabbed Huang Songsheng in the heart.
Huang Songsheng was startled, and was about to dodge, when a figure flashed, only to hear a "snap", the man's short knife fell to the ground, and his body was also moved by Zu Qingzhi in the air.
Zu Qingzhi asked curiously, "Don't you know each other?" How can you be ruthless as soon as you come up. ”
Only then did Huang Songsheng see the person's appearance clearly by the moonlight: "Second brother, why are you?" ”
That person was Ni Yun, the second leader of Xiachuan Island, Ni Yun saw that Huang Songsheng couldn't care about being held by Zu Qingzhi, and struggled and shouted: "Big brother, why are you back, why are you alone?" ”
Zu Qingzhi saw that the two really knew each other, so he put Ni Yun down. It turned out that Li Zhixi came to attack Xiachuan that day, and An Shirong killed Li Zhixi under Li Zhixi's knife in order to lure Li Zhixi away and let Ni Yun escape smoothly.
Although Ni Yun escaped, the island had been completely blocked, and there was no boat on the shore to leave the island. In desperation, Ni Yun hid in the coconut grove on the island and waited for Huang Songsheng's rescue.
Huang Songsheng told Ni Yun the purpose of coming back this time, and Ni Yun said: "Big brother, there are more than 100 brothers alive on the island besides me, and they are all scattered and hiding in people's homes. We also have more than 30,000 people on Xiachuan Island, and Li Zhixi still wants to rule here in the future, so he didn't attack the people, and we will find them out now. ”
Zu Qingzhi was so skillful that any movement within a radius of a few miles could not hide from his ears, and the two of them followed behind Zu Qingzhi, easily avoiding all the patrols on the island, and finding all the people before dawn. In this process, the people on the island also knew that Huang Songsheng had returned, and they all prepared their own weapons, waiting for Huang Songsheng's order to recapture Xiachuan Island.
Shi Luosheng waited outside the island for two days, calculating the time, Huang Songsheng and Niu Qingyuan were almost ready, so they divided their troops with Ning Buqu, Shi Luosheng and Liu Zixuan captured Chuandao, and Ning Buqu and Ling Zhen attacked Chuandao.
Shi Luosheng led the army to take advantage of the high tide at dusk to kill Xiachuan Island, and it was Yuan Xiaoying, the third master of Boracay Island, who was responsible for guarding Xiachuan.
On the first day that Yuan Xiaoying was stationed in Xiachuan, he knew that Huang Songsheng would not give up, and he would definitely unite with the Song army to fight back again, so he was also prepared for Shi Luosheng's attack, and arranged manpower to defend without hurry.
Yuan Xiaoying knew the situation on Xiachuan Island, as long as he could hold it for an hour, as soon as the tide receded, all the warships of the Song army would have to run aground, and then he could only be slaughtered. Therefore, he did not send people to fight, but only arranged a defensive line on the shore to prevent the Song army from landing.
Seeing that the tide was about to retreat, the Song army still couldn't attack for a long time, and when Yuan Xiaoying was proud, there was a sudden shouting on the island, and a familiar voice shouted: "Yuan Xiaoying, you return my third brother's life." ”
Yuan Xiaoying looked back and saw that the leaders were actually Huang Songsheng and Ni Yun. Although Yuan Xiaoying was very curious about how Huang Songsheng sneaked back to the island, he didn't think much about it at this time, and hurriedly divided his troops to intercept it.
Yuan Xiaoying thought that Huang Songsheng was followed by just a group of people who had no combat effectiveness, and he believed that as long as Huang Songsheng and Ni Yun's heads were cut off as soon as possible, these people would be honest.
Yuan Xiaoying personally led a few good hands around him to kill Huang Songsheng, but before he could get closer, he felt a flower in front of him, and a middle-aged man stood in front of him. Huang Songsheng behind him didn't even look at him, and passed past him, wanting to pick up Shi Luosheng on the sea.
Yuan Xiaoying was furious, and he was about to stab Huang Songsheng when he lifted his sword, but the middle-aged man in front of him raised his hand at the same time and punched him to the head.
Yuan Xiaoying hurriedly gave up Huang Songsheng, drew his sword and came back and slashed towards the middle-aged man's fist.
The middle-aged man didn't dodge either, with a flick of his wrist, he wrapped Yuan Xiaoying's long sword with his sleeve. When he released it again, the long sword had been twisted into pieces by the middle-aged man with internal force.
Yuan Xiaoying was frightened, abandoned the sword and turned around to flee, the middle-aged man slapped the back of the heart again, Yuan Xiaoying screamed, and died on the spot under the middle-aged man's palm.
When those good players saw that Yuan Xiaoying was killed in front of him, they were all panicked, some were so frightened that they stood in place and didn't dare to move, and some ran away.
The middle-aged man smiled coldly, raised his right hand, and several long sword fragments in his sleeve turned into shocks and shot towards everyone respectively. In the blink of an eye, all these good hands died in the hands of Zhongzu Qingzhi.
As soon as Yuan Xiaoying died, the Long Beach soldiers guarding the island were also in chaos, and Shi Luosheng and Huang Songsheng joined forces to easily recapture Xiachuan Island.
Shi Luosheng left Huang Songsheng and Ni Yun to clean up the battlefield, and he and Liu Zixuan led the army to quickly leave the island and rush to Shangchuan Island while the tide had not completely retreated.
By the time the two arrived, the battle on Shangchuan Island was over, and Hua Haoxuan also cut off the head of Yu Zhi, the second leader of Boracay Island.
Now the two islands have been recaptured, but this evil breath Huang Songsheng and Niu Qingyuan can't swallow it. Especially Huang Songsheng, his third brother An Shirong was also killed by Li Zhixi, and asked Shi Luosheng to help him avenge this no matter what.
Shi Luosheng also wanted to take advantage of the presence of several armies to take Boracay Island in one fell swoop. Later, with Huang Songsheng and Niu Qingyuan going to Xianghu and Penglai to take office respectively, this large sea area is the world of Changxing Island.
Shi Luosheng glanced at Ning Buqu and asked: "Commander Ning, Li Zhixi's sneak attack on Shangchuan and Xiachuan Islands this time can be regarded as an infringement on the territory of your two countries, although the two islands have been recaptured now, if we withdraw our troops here, it will inevitably be a hidden danger in the future." It's better to take advantage of everyone's presence and directly capture Boracay Island this time and kill Li Zhixi, what do you think? ”
Ning Buqu said: "Since Li Zhixi has aroused the anger of the public, Unyielding will not stand idly by, let's discuss it and send troops to Boracay Island tomorrow." ”
Seeing that Ning Bu was unyielding, Shi Luosheng also agreed to send troops, and said to Huang Songsheng: "Then General Huang, you can introduce us to the situation on Boracay Island." ”
Huang Songsheng said: "Boracay Island is the largest island in this area, there are more than 80,000 inhabitants on the island, after the two battles of Shangchuan and Xiachuan Island, Li Zhixi now has about forty or fifty warships, of course, this is only sea power, when we really fight Long Beach, Li Zhixi will not compete with us at sea, he will mobilize the people on the island, stubbornly guard the coastline and prevent us from landing." Boracay Island is rich in crops, and it won't be a problem for them to keep it for three or five years, so we won't be able to consume energy for that long. ”
Ning Buqu listened and said: "What General Huang said makes sense, we can only choose a quick battle, tomorrow I will ask people to send the heads of Yu Zhi and Yuan Xiaoying to Li Zhixi, to see if we can provoke him to fight, as long as he dares to go to sea, we can make him unable to go back." ”
Ning Buqu still thought in his heart that although he had just repelled the Qi troops, but now that Penglai City was empty, he had brought out the only few troops, if he couldn't solve the battle in a short time, it would be a great security hazard to Penglai City and even Anyang City.
