Chapter 356: Island Battle (3) Sword Mountain and Sea of Fire
The captain who led the team observed for a long time before retreating lightly and quietly into the dense forest. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info When the fire beating on the seashore turned into a fine speck of dust, he looked at the soldiers who came around, and said in a low voice: "You have also seen it, and if you stay here, there is only one way to die." So I came up with a way to escape! It's up to you to see if you have the guts, give it a try! ”。
As soon as he said this, several junior lieutenants immediately spoke up: "Report to the sir!" Since you've said it, staying here any longer is a dead end. So what else is there that we don't dare to try? ”。
As soon as he finished speaking, the others agreed in unison. The eyes full of brilliance also sparkle against the starlight. It's just that considering the British troops on the seaside, they deliberately kept their voices extremely low.
Seeing that everyone was so excited, the captain was also overjoyed. He licked the moisture on his lips and said, "Okay! Since you're all willing, I'll tell you what I do! ”。
It turned out that he wanted to divide the more than 600 people in front of him into two parts. Some of them quietly stole the small wooden boats parked on the beach. Then slowly approach the troop carrier at sea so that it can be taken for himself.
When you're done, sail out of the sea right away. And as quickly as possible, notify the formation of the 2nd Marine Division, which is still holding in the Andaman Sea.
Anyway, it was late at night, and the British troops who stayed behind were tired again. Therefore, launching a sneak attack now is really the best choice. After all, the British troops on the troop transport ship disembarked during the day. There are relatively few remaining British troops. With that amount of troops, it is also easy to deal with.
And there is still a long distance between the troop carrier and the island! Even if it was discovered, for a while, the British troops on the island could not catch up.
The so-called far water can't quench the thirst of the near, that's the truth.
However, the British army should not be taken for fools. In the end, it is a very senior seafaring empire, and it is impossible to be defenseless. Therefore, in order to attack the east and the west, the other part of the Ming army took the initiative to attack the British army and expose its position.
This attracted the attention of the British army and diverted the tiger from the mountain. For the Ming army that stole the ship, increase the certainty of success.
I have to say, this plan is really high!
After all, the British always thought that the Ming army was hiding in the woods. I never imagined that the Ming army would find another way and sneak on the troop carrier.
Such a counterattack strategy would obviously catch the British army off guard.
It's just that once it attracts the attention of the British army, it will be a little difficult to get rid of it. The danger contained in it is needless to say. Therefore, the captain who led the team immediately reflected the responsibility that an officer should have.
The first one took on the task of diverting the British army.
The Ming troops who were gathered together followed one after another. Stay on Simelu Island to attract the attention of the British.
Although there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire ahead, it is a desperate situation of life and death. But the People's Army of the Ming Dynasty, after thousands of tempers, has long forged an iron will. So that the Ming army, knowing that attracting the attention of the British army, is a dead word! Still obligated to opt-in.
Seeing this, the captain also felt a warm current in his heart.
But he still couldn't hold back his emotion, put on a straight face, and added in a deep voice: "If you have parents and parents, wives and concubines, and only one brother, stand up for me." ”。
Although there are a lot of Ming troops, I don't want to admit it. But he still stood on the right hand side of the officer, reluctantly, in the way of the military order.
So the Ming army that remained in place only had more than 100 people. At this time, the squad with the knife neck is all eligible to stay in the team.
The captain walked with heavy steps past the soldiers with straight backs and tall military postures. Although the current clouds are thick, the starlight also disappears from time to time. But in the dim night, the soldiers still clearly felt the captain's eagle-like, sharp eyes.
It took him a full five minutes before he finished making eye contact with each of the soldiers who stayed on the island. The soft mud floor also left a row of closely connected footprints.
In the end, it is in Guangzong No. 2, a comrade-in-arms who has been with him for a long time. The captain was very familiar with the Ming army on the ship. Everyone's situation at home is basically clear. He stood in the front, with his hands behind his back, and read the names of the Ming army one by one.
In less than three minutes, he finished reading the names of forty-three people.
Chen Jiasheng's name was also read. He was still a little confused, not knowing what the captain was trying to say. I heard the captain order: "All these people whose names I have read will stand up for me." ”。
Forty-three people stood at the forefront in an instant.
Since Chen Jiasheng was standing on the left, the captain was the first to walk up to him and asked in a stern tone, "Chen Jiasheng, don't you have a wife, concubine and children at home?" ”。
Chen Jiasheng immediately swallowed his saliva and replied stubbornly: "Report to the chief." In the subordinate family, there is only one mother-in-law and a babbling son. ”。
"Then why don't you come forward? Is it trying to disobey military orders? ", the captain's tone was a little heavier.
Chen Jiasheng hurriedly explained: "My subordinates think that even if I die, Daming's pension can support my mother-in-law and son." So I--".
Before he could say the rest of the sentence, the captain retorted: "So you disobey the military order and take my words as a deaf ear, right?" ”。
Chen Jiasheng instantly explained with embarrassment: "No-no--". Stammering, slurring words. It's just that the night is very dark, and the embarrassing color is seamlessly hidden.
Seeing that he was still standing, the officer urged even more impatiently: "What are you still standing for?" Do you really want to disobey military orders? ”。
The military order is like a mountain! Subordinates must obey their superiors unconditionally. These Ming military orders flashed in his mind one by one, so that Chen Jiasheng had to stand up. During this period, he still wanted to explain, but the officer had already said to Hu Quansheng, who had changed his name: "Why didn't you stand up before?" ”。
"Report sir! There are four brothers and sisters in his family. Without me, my parents would have been able to take care of themselves. And I haven't married yet, so I have no children or daughters. So it stands to reason that it is possible to stay on the island. ”。
His remarks are very qualified. But the captain plucked his ears with his little finger and asked in a quiet tone: "I heard that half a month ago, Master Ou changed your name?" ”。
This matter is known to the people of Guangzong No. 2. Even other warships were also spread. So Chen Jiasheng didn't know why the captain asked so knowingly. But because of the rank in the army, he still replied sincerely: "Yes, sir! The subordinate's original name was Hu Gouyu, and when Master Ou heard about it, he said that this name was too cheesy, so he gave him the name Hu Quansheng. ”。
The captain nodded, and mumbled. With his hands behind his back, he asked, "Then do you know the meaning of Master Ou giving you Hu Quansheng?" ”。 (To be continued.) )
