Chapter 302: Planning
In the waters of Macau, adjacent to Lamma Island on Hong Kong Island, in the center, in a relatively prosperous hall, a group of pirates sit everywhere wantonly, indulging in wine, but there is no sense of happiness, lack of a lively atmosphere. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
At this time, a pirate leader drank a bowl of wine and said with a sullen expression: "Big brother, the Guangdong Navy Division exterminated the Black Flag Gang led by Guo Po, and it has been a month, and Zhuge Mou led the remnants to escape, not knowing how to hide on that desert island." It's been so long, can we act, the brothers have been idle for so long, and they're all about to be idle! ”
The person sitting on the seat was Li Shangqing, the leader of the Qingqi Gang, who was also depressed at the moment, very unhappy, and it seemed that he had been idle for too long, and he had not done anything to plunder merchant ships, and his hands had already been itchy.
Li Shangqing looked at the subordinate, took a sip of stuffy wine, and shouted unhappily: "Do you think Lao Tzu wants to be idle like this and have nothing to do?" Damn, Lao Tzu is worried that he has nothing to do, and he wants to rob a few merchant ships and get a few girls back, and be happy. In a few days, then the foreigners should set sail for their homeland. Once winter is in place, there is no need to do any business, and there are very few large cargo ships. ”
"Yes, big brother, once we enter the cold winter wax moon, it is the strict time of those Tartars in the Qing court, and the residents and people along the coast are not allowed to sell us things. If we don't grab more things now and stock up on things for the winter, we will have a hard time in the next few months. ”
As soon as the little pirate leader finished speaking, he seemed to think of something, Li Shangqing's eyes were uncertain, and he said with infinite emotion: "Also, our Qingqi Gang is no better than the other five major forces, not to mention the small territory, the reserves are even smaller, and they can't hold on for too long." If there is no more action, the family will be almost exhausted, and even if you have money, you may not be able to buy anything. If we buy from the other four major forces, those dogs will definitely extort us! ”
Then, Li Shangqing looked at the roof of the main hall, and then looked into the distance, staring at the white clouds in the sky, as if he had made some kind of decision, showing a resolute look, and said fiercely: "No matter, little wolf, you will take some brothers out tomorrow to explore the wind, play some autumn winds, and by the way, inquire about the situation in Guangzhou Mansion, how is the wind?" If you come across some fat and feel that you can take it, you can pick up the grass and beat the rabbit to get some income for our Qingqi Gang, which can be regarded as a good start these days. ”
In an instant, the person who spoke first, called the little wolf, immediately stood up, left the table, and stood in the center of the main hall, his expression was very excited, his face was full of red light, and he said again and again: "Yes, big brother, I will definitely find out the situation in Guangzhou Mansion tomorrow, and come back with some fat sheep to make up for the losses of nearly two months, and there is no income." ”
"Okay, after a little more drinking, you can go down, light up the personnel and warships, the birds and cannons are ready, and we will set off early tomorrow morning!"
"Okay, big brother, I won't wait, I'll go out now, arrange personnel and weapons, prepare all kinds of materials, and ensure that I can set sail early tomorrow morning."
"Okay, you go, you have a heart. If you do it well, when you come back, I will have a reward, and I won't treat you badly! ”
The little wolf departed quickly, with hurried steps and a full voice, as if showing off something to the others. Seeing this situation, hearing the conversation between the two, the other little leaders were not envious, but they could only be envious. Then, some gossip sounded and whispered.
"Hey, this little wolf is really fucking **** luck, he actually won the trust of the gang leader so much, and it was really unfair to get such a fat difference, it was him every time."
"There's no way, what kind of person is what kind of life, like those of us who don't know how to meet the horse, how can we get the favor of the helper, we can only watch."
"Who's to say it isn't? These days, it's all villains! Look at Na Heshen, the whole world knows that he is a corrupt official, but if he waits comfortably for the dog emperor, he will be able to rise to prominence, and he will not be brought down no matter what. ”
"However, there is one thing you have to admire, although the little wolf defected from the Black Flag Gang, he was able to win the favor of the two gang leaders, and they were both very trusted, and the benefits were continuous. With this means, we are all ashamed of ourselves. ”
......
At the same time, far away on Hulu Island in the waters of the Pearl River, in the Tibetan Cave, Qi Zhiyuan, Shi Mingzhi and Zhuge Mou gathered together and stood around the table.
"You see, this is Lamma Island, Hong Kong Island in the northwest, Lantau Island in the southwest, closer to Hong Kong Island, but there are still dozens of miles, and there are very small islands in other directions, and there are basically no people."
Shi Mingzhi had been looking at the sea map, with a thoughtful look on his face, took over the topic, and said slowly: "Both, since Lamma Island is located in the easternmost part of Hong Kong, at the edge, if we want to attack him, we must bypass the sphere of influence of the other four pirates. No matter which side you start from, there is a very high chance that you will encounter one of the other four major forces, and there will likely be an encounter. ”
"Therefore, if we want to take Lamma Island unknowingly, we must either take a detour from the southeast direction, avoid Lantau Island far away, and start from the east side of Lamma Island, and the Green Flag Gang will be caught off guard and attack suddenly; Or, let's attack at night and pass through the sea at the intersection of Lantau Island and the New Territories under the cover of night. ”
As soon as the two proposals were proposed, they received initial approval from the other two. Qi Zhiyuan immediately compared the two places, and after roughly estimating, he said loudly: "The two plans are good, they have great enforceability, each has its own advantages, and its disadvantages are also obvious. ”
"If the first option is adopted, the operation will be safer and you will not have to suffer from flanking attacks. However, if we take a detour from the southeast side of Lantau Island, the journey time at sea will be very long, and it is inevitable that our whereabouts will be revealed and our intentions will be discovered by other forces. ”
"If the last option is implemented, it will be very dangerous, and if it is discovered, it will be under pressure from Lantau Island, the New Territories and Hong Kong Island, and at any time it may fall into a situation of being attacked from three sides, and it will be extremely risky."
Qi Zhiyuan finished the last word earnestly, as the proposer of the plan, Shi Mingzhi took over the conversation, at this moment, his body exuded the aura of a soldier, and there was a bit of sonorous and powerful feeling in his tone, expressing the tendency in his chest.
"I think that the soldiers are very fast, and I prefer the latter option. Once the action drags on for a long time and is too sloppy, it will make our action a failure, and it will be difficult to implement it in the future, and it will also expose the existence of Huludao, and the existence and hiding place of Thunder are no longer a secret. ”
Whether it is the strength of Thunder or the situation of the other five pirates, no one knows better than Zhuge Mou and understands the contrast between the strength of the two. Hearing Shi Mingzhi's words, he paused, and began to express his opinion.
"I think the situation is much more serious, if the existence of Thunder is no longer a secret, our strength will be known by the other five major forces. When the time comes, they will definitely join forces to deal with us together. After all, the disparity in strength is huge, and there are no more options left for the five major forces. ”
"Whether it is Zheng Yi of the Black Flag Gang, Wu Zhiqing of the Yellow Flag Gang, Wu Shier of the Blue Flag Gang, or Liang Yu of the White Flag Gang and Li Shangqing of the Blue Flag Gang, they are all used to being the bosses, and no one will easily join us and surrender to us. What's more, our Thunder fledgling donkey does not have any prestige, nor has he made any achievements, so he can't convince those that it is impossible to submit to him. ”
"Unlike Cai Lian, who has been active in the coastal areas of Fujian for a long time, he has hundreds of warships and thousands of personnel, defeated the combined forces of the Guangdong Navy Division and the Fujian Navy Division many times, and even killed and injured many Navy commanders, so that the Qing court had no choice but to sigh."
"A few days ago, if he hadn't tied up the Fujian Naval Division, it wouldn't have been as simple as the Guangdong Naval Division and the Portuguese Navy, and the rest of my brothers and I might have died a long time ago, and the entire Black Flag Gang would have been served by the Guangzhou Naval Division and the Fujian Naval Division!"
seemed to think of the sad place, and Zhuge Mou became sad. Speaking of Cai Lian, Shi Mingzhi also came to the spirit, as if he didn't realize Zhuge Mou's emotional changes, and also told what he knew.
"Yes, Cai Lian's strength is very strong, extremely rampant, and it is difficult for any pirate to compare with him. The only person who can keep pace with him is the former Zheng Qi, and the current six pirate forces evolved from his forces and split after his death. ”
Suddenly, as Shi Mingzhi's words fell, the cave in the Tibetan soldiers quieted down, each with something on his mind, I don't know what he was thinking? Soon, Qi Zhiyuan clapped his hands, his spirits perked up, and he said loudly: "My two chiefs of staff, let's not talk about Cai Lian for now, let's talk about how to attack Lamma Island, right?" Which option to take? ”
After a short silence, recalling some things in the past, Zhuge Mou's eyes lit up, and he said with understanding: "By the way, let's take the second plan!" ”
The loud and very confident words immediately attracted the attention of the others, and the two of them looked at Zhuge Mou at the same time, showing a look of expectation, waiting for his explanation. (To be continued.) )
