Chapter 144: Strategy and Strength (II)
After listening to Zheng Lang's words, Xiong Li said without replying: "Pay attention to your words, please call Lord Dragon God!" Otherwise, even if I look at you pleasing to the eye, I will never spare you. But you're right, the one who twisted your steel knife with his bare hands on the road that day was indeed Lord Ryujin, and it was just a humanoid incarnation of him. What appears now is the true body of Lord Ryujin. It is your glory to be there. ”
After receiving Xiong Li's affirmative reply, Zheng Lang was surprised, happy, and worried in his heart.
He was shocked that there were really immortals with magical powers in this world. Happily, the strength of the Dragon God Sect may far exceed his expectations. If you can get a good relationship, it will also be very good for your "Sea Wolf" pirate group! Worriedly, he could actually feel the small calculations in the hearts of these temporarily united Chinese forces, and he was not sure how the Dragon God Sect would treat him and the others at that time.
Xiong Li may have seen his mood change, this time he turned his head to look at him, and said very seriously: "Brother Zheng, I sincerely advise you not to think too much about it first. When he got on the boat, Lord Ryujin had his own plans when he returned. I'm sure you'll make the right choice. ”
After saying that, he turned his head to look ahead, and remained on his alert with all his attention.
Zheng Lang could only reluctantly arch his hand, thanked Xiong Li, and prepared to return to his team. I was not far from stepping out of this dense forest, and I could faintly smell the salty and damp smell of the sea......
But in the process of walking back, he suddenly felt an alarm, and a strong sense of crisis emerged from his heart - this is the intuition of people who have lived in battle and fighting for a long time!
There is an enemy attack!!
This thought flashed through his mind in an instant, and he suddenly squatted down with his head in his hands, rolling on the spot and hiding on the ground.
It was at this moment that there was a bang. A projectile flew out of the bushes not far away. A transparent trail was drawn in the air, which happened to shoot past the position where Zheng Lang had just fought, and then hit a pirate on the opposite side. There was a splash of blood, followed by the dull sound of corpses falling to the ground......
"There is an enemy attack !!"
Zheng Lang, who was lying on the ground, screamed in a burst of voice, and the other members also shouted one after another, reminding all the people who were escorting the treasure chest team.
Bang bang. Bang bang bang.
Dense muskets rang out in the dense and dark forests in all directions at the same time, and a large number of projectiles flew out from the hidden places, indiscriminately intertwined into a network of firepower!
However, fortunately, this conventional musket in the mid-nineteenth century was not too strong in terms of power, crosshair, rate of fire, etc. Such a sudden attack only killed a dozen people in a hurry. Zheng Lang got up from the ground with a grunt, raised his knife and shouted: "All brothers, prepare to meet the enemy!" ”
"English Jersey?"
Xiong Li, who was at the front of the team, also reacted in an instant, this must be the British regular army stationed in Tiruvo Nentabram, otherwise there would not be such sophisticated firearms and equipment. and the concealment that can be concealed from him.
"All dragon thorns, fight back against Xiyi!"
"Yes!"
The members of the Dragonspur Special Forces also raised their muskets to shoot, and the surrounding woods and grass also let out bursts of British screams from time to time.
As the most elite unit directly under Zhao Wushuang within the Dragon God Sect, all the Dragon Thorn members were proficient in a large number of strategies, tactics, and killing methods. After completing the initial round of shooting, they quickly and tacitly divided into two groups under the command of Xiong Li.
One of them quickly formed a circle and firmly surrounded the treasure chests they had brought out of the main temple; The other group is like ghostly ghosts who quickly re-enter the dark forest, and have to confront the British who are intent on holding out......
Of course, there were also some fleshly and courageous new believers who also rushed in. If they survive, they will be good soldiers!
Except for the Dragonthorn and the people of the Seawolf Pirate Regiment. The performance of the other teams is actually remarkable, and the overall quality of the green battalions and banner soldiers of the Manchu Qing Dynasty is more elite.
In fact, this is also normal, after all, the temple treasure hunt has just been experienced, and the rabble who are not powerful are basically dead. Those who can survive to retreat are relatively good.
Suddenly, this quiet and gloomy jungle became a battlefield of blood and fire. The sound of firearms and cold weapons cutting through flesh, accompanied by screams and roars, are intertwined into a song of fighting. Breaking the silence of the night......
Dense and complex forests at night are not very convenient places for humans; But for snakes, it's a natural paradise!
So as soon as Zhao Wushuang entered this dense forest, he felt a burst of joy. The path winds through the woods, shrubs and grasses. Towards the treasure transport team in front of them.
"It seems that it is really a moving wealth since ancient times. I didn't expect that after a big battle, these guys could retreat so quickly with so many and so heavy gold, silver and jewelry. ”
Zhao Wushuang thought secretly in his heart.
But at this moment, his naturally diffused divine consciousness sensed the battle and battle ahead.
"Huh? What's going on? Could it be that our plan has been discovered?! Did the British of the East India Company send a large army to surround us? Zhao Wushuang's heart was shocked, and a bad feeling emerged.
So his massive body swiped away from the only path and into the dense grass that was very difficult for humans to walk on, swimming with his belly close to the ground. And try to spread the consciousness to the widest possible extent, to perceive what is really going on.
Soon, he was almost figured out and slightly relieved.
Although it is indeed a very strong British regular army unit, it ...... There aren't many of them. Not even the five hundred basic soldiers stationed at Tiruvonon Tapuram have been gathered, and it seems that there are less than three hundred at present. Moreover, they are entangled and fighting with those who desperately hold on to the treasure; Although it does have a slight advantage, the advantage is not too big.
Zhao Wushuang smiled.
Because he had basically figured out what was going on in front of him.
Obviously, there were a lot of smart people in the East India Company or in the local British garrison!
In the beginning, they deliberately released the rumor of the treasure, like a bait, so that outside forces gathered here to grab the treasure. And then catch them all and have that dream of killing two birds with one stone. But Zhao Wushuang's plan is to repair the plank road in the dark and Chen Cang.
But this plan has clearly been seen through!
So there was a matter of British regular troops waiting here to snipe the evacuated treasure hunting team. It can be described as a surprise attack, which is very clever.
But one of their biggest mistakes was to underestimate the strength of the Treasure Hunters - or to be precise, they didn't even expect that there was such a bug-level existence as Zao Wushuang! (To be continued.) )
