"Battalion Commander Lu Kuang, look, this is Big Fish Cave Island, do you have any ideas?" Rear Commander Lu Jing of the Guangzhou asked Lu Kuang, the commander of the Marine Corps. Nautical charts were brought over by later generations and are extremely accurate, even down to the islands and reefs that are not exposed at high tide. Lu Kuang took a closer look at the topography of the island and said: "You still have to observe on the spot to decide on the attack plan, but judging from the sea chart, the terrain of Dayudong Island is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there is no landing site around, so the bandits should have a secret passage to enter." ”

"Do you want to lure it out and destroy it at sea?"

"We also have to consider the possibility that the bandits can't hold out, so let's go back to the Sunny Sky, and when I get to Dayudong Island, it's midnight, and then I'll send a small boat over to take a closer look, and if I find the passage, I will land, and if I can't find it, I will use the second plan." Using a destroyer to fight a fishing boat, or a hard-sailed fishing boat that belongs to the ancient category, not to mention the comparison of strength, it is also a blow to Lu Jing's reputation if it is spread out.

Under the dark night, the sea was undulating, and the Sunny Sky put down a dinghy, started the motor, and headed for Dayudong Island, which was more than 1,000 meters away.

On the top of the hill in the middle of the island, two pirates are sleeping soundly, and they are responsible for observing the movement of the sea and sounding the alarm bell as soon as there is a problem. Usually these bandits are still more conscious, but unfortunately today there is a big feast in the cave to celebrate, all TM drink crookedly, at ease, let's carry the sea breeze here with our backs, throw him old wood, and go to bed first!

After successfully approaching the island, the dinghy began to search along the perimeter of the island, and the undulating waves and night made it difficult to observe, until the third circle found the small gap. After the report, Lu Kuang decided to send a small boat to land, but the gap was too small to accommodate the small boat to enter. All ten boats on the Sunny Sky were lowered, and a hundred marines followed Lu Kuang slowly through the gap, and as soon as they turned the corner, they found a bandit guarding the dock.

The sound of the motor woke the bandit, and by the faint light of the torch, the man felt bad, and turned and ran. Lu Kuang had no choice but to order someone to kill him. The gunshots rang out, and Lu Kuang knew that the sneak attack had failed, so he could only attack. The situation inside the cave is unknown, and a group of 100 people turns on the flashlight and searches forward. Ten people were guarding the simple pier, and the rest were all in the cave.

"Where's the gun?" The sea harrier jumped off the bed and touched the revolver resting beside the bed.

"Bang!" The gunshots were heard again, and it looked very dull in the closed cave. "Boss, a group of officers and soldiers have come outside, and they are walking inside!" The bandits in the hall came one after another, and hundreds of people had gathered.

"Those with guns, come with me, let's go meet those officers and soldiers." The rest guard our warehouse, you take them with you, and don't let the officers and soldiers find out! The Sea Harrier ordered, and more than forty pirates armed with rifles and torches rushed out.

The two sides met head-on, and suddenly a burst of gunfire rang out, and several people fell on both sides. "Retreat, let's go back to the docks." Lu Kuang ordered, it was too uncomfortable to fight in this, the initial plan was not suitable, the cave was very dark, and there was no cover, it was not conducive to firepower, and the advantage in numbers could not be revealed. The soldiers dragged their wounded comrades back, and when the pirates saw the officers and soldiers retreating, they suddenly became in a great array, and the sea harriers shouted, and the pirates swarmed out. Lu Kuang led the people to fight and retreat, and now there were preparations and no soldiers were injured, but the sea harrier did not find out, his men patronized and rushed down, and several of them were already hit and fell to the ground.

"Damn, these officers and soldiers are still the same birds as before, dare to come to our big fish hole, Lao Tzu has done them all! Rush up for me, and leave no one behind! The sea harrier had just finished screaming when a bullet struck him in the ear with a whoosh. Seeing that the boss was injured, the pirates became even more frenzied, and in addition to the dozens of armed pirates who had just arrived, more than 70 people rushed out frantically under the shouts of the sea harriers.

After the marines returned to the entrance of the cave, Lu Kuang immediately ordered people to aim at the cave, there was only one exit here, and the outside place was relatively wide, so he could finally let go of his hands and feet. There was a shout of murder from the cave, and then several pirates rushed out with guns raised, hundreds of rifles and three machine guns opened fire together, and several pirates fell in convulsions. Before the others could react, they rushed out, and the sea harrier saw that his men were killed and wounded by the light brought by the flame of the muzzle outside the cave, and hurriedly ordered to stop rushing out, but the hole was straight, and the bullets flew in without hindrance, and more than a dozen pirates were hit.

The sea harrier covered his ears and rushed to the depths of the cave, just now in less than a minute his elite men were completely damaged, only a few pirates followed him back, this is a big loss, or find a way to escape, those officers and soldiers actually have machine guns, bullets like they don't cost money, listen to the gunshots at least five hundred! The sea harrier didn't care about Sanyuan and the other bandits guarding the warehouse, and climbed out of a secret exit by himself, hid behind a big rock, and waited for the officers and soldiers to disperse.

The second time he entered, he had experience, Lu Kuang ordered several soldiers with submachine guns in front, turned on the flashlight, slowly searched inside, and shot as soon as there was movement, of course, he had to block his ears with cotton cloth, otherwise the echo of the gunfire in the cave could make his ears bleed!

The news of the officers and soldiers coming in soon spread throughout the small pirate lair, Sanyuan is a smart man, he will not bury the sea harrier and this little belongings, and run to the secret exit early with a few henchmen. The rest of the bandits were either stubbornly resistant, and some were running around, but they were all named. Soon the Marines searched the entire nest, but the problem was that they did not find the two masters, and the few captives did not know where the masters had gone - the secret exit was known only to the Sea Harrier and Sanyuan.

Outside the secret exit, Sanyuan led people to smear and wanted to find a place to hide, and suddenly heard a low scream - the hiding place of the Sea Harrier was stepped on by a subordinate, and it happened to be stepped on the hand of the Sea Harrier, and it was dark and unclear, and Sanyuan did not hear that this was the voice of the Sea Harrier, and both sides thought that the other party was an officer and soldier, and the weapons in their hands were immediately aimed at each other. The Sea Harrier was holding a revolver, which was more convenient than a rifle, and it was advantageous to shoot at close range, but because there was only one person, he was still shot.

The Marine Corps soldiers, who were searching around the cave, heard the "crackling" gunshots and came to them, and finally found the secret exit after following the sound, and when they went outside, they swept the flashlight, and all four of them fell on the rocks. It was later identified that the sea harrier was shot three times and killed on the spot, the second leader Sanyuan was shot once, and the other two henchmen were also shot and fell to the ground, killing each other!

Two Marines were wounded, but none were life-threatening. Lu Jing, the captain of the destroyer Guangzhou, was a little resentful, and he thought that he could train sailors in the fight against bandits, and it seemed that there were few opportunities for naval warfare at present. After the Battle of Dayudong, the two ships attacked many times, exterminating a total of more than 700 pirates, three of which were fought at sea, which finally made Lu Jing addicted to actual combat.

The pirates were small fishing boats with a displacement of no more than 300 tons, and there were no artillery. Lu Jing only regarded it as target training, and the maximum rate of fire of the five single-barreled 127mm Gaoping dual-purpose guns on the Guangzhou exceeded 13 rounds per minute, not to mention the thirteen empty machine guns, which were the real weapons of mass destruction for the ships of the pirates.

The destruction of the Sea Harrier Gang was just the beginning for Lu Jing and the others, and a more severe test was still waiting for them. Guangdong has been plagued by bandits for hundreds of years, and many coastal villages have been working on bandits for generations, and more people have relied on bandit circles for their livelihood. The anti-bandit fleet is faced not only with armed gangs on the sea, but also with poor people who depend on the bandits for a living.

If the suppression of bandits on the sea is purely forced, then the simultaneous land suppression of bandits is a combination of military and civilian. In the beginning, the army's actions were very ineffective, and when they got the news, they often flew into the air, which showed that there were huge loopholes in the intelligence system. The information provided by the locals was either false or vague, and some informants were murdered after providing information. After summing up, the Provisional Government believed that in order to completely eradicate banditry, it was necessary to eliminate the basis for the existence of banditry, that is, to let the local people see the hope of a good life.

The civil affairs department cooperated with the military department to intervene forcefully, forcibly reduced rents and interest rates, tried individual landlords who committed the most heinous crimes, and forcibly introduced high-yield rice seeds, especially in Chaoshan, Guangzhou Bay, Leizhou Peninsula, and other areas where the most rampant was rampant. In the past, Lu Liang was very tolerant and even conniving with the landlord class, and he cultivated and guided them as a new class, but this did not mean that he was blind to illegal acts. In these areas where banditry was rampant, the Provisional Government dealt with landlords and civilians who violated the decrees of the Provisional Government with rare force. Soon, the minds of the people began to tilt their favor towards the Provisional Government, and after the promotion of rubber cultivation, tropical fruit planting, and road renovation in the rainforest, the employment rate and affluence of the population in these places reached an all-time high. If you can win a rich life with your own hands and hard work, who would take risks and venture on the sea? The pirates have lost their roots, and the only thing that awaits them is destruction.
