Chapter 724: The Sound of the Blue Sea (3)

Zhong Xiang's gaze turned to the generals of the two marines, "General Huo Qi, General Mu Chao, this cliff is really dangerous, the sailors can't attack from this side, but the marines can!" ”

Huo Qi groaned: "If this cliff is really as steep as the model made by General Zhong, it is extremely difficult, and it is really difficult for soldiers to climb it, and the most worrying thing is that if the opponent puts some soldiers here, even if the number is very small, it will bring disaster to the sneak attack team!" ”

Zhong Xiang said calmly: "I don't know if the opponent has put soldiers here, but the steepness here is definitely not as good as this model, although it is a steep wall like a knife, but over the years, it is expected that some trees and vines will grow on this cliff, and it will not be too difficult for selected soldiers to climb, as long as there are dozens of people and dozens of ropes hanging down, we can at least send thousands of soldiers up."

Mu Chao shook his head, "Even if you can go up, you can't send thousands of people, thousands of people need more than a dozen boats to transport, so the ship is moving at sea, and the opponent occupies the commanding heights, even at night, there is a danger of exposure, so it is a wake-up call to the opponent, I mean, if you can go, you can only select the best soldiers, and send two or three hundred people up!" ”

"What can two or three hundred people do if they go up?" Hu Bin said, "Isn't this a snack for the enemy?" ”

Mu Chao sneered, "The opponent's strength is far inferior to ours, what do we rely on, the first is that the fortress is strong, the second is sharp, and the third is that the reserves are sufficient." We crept up two or three hundred men, not to kill them from the enemy's back, it would be a snack for the opponent, but we could do something else! ”

Zhong Xiang's heart moved, and he suddenly realized, "General Mu Chao wants to move their reserves!" ”

"Not bad!" Mu Chao said: "If the soldiers have no food, they will be chaotic, if we can find a place for them to store their food, and burn it to the fullest, I want to see if he has so many people on Lianshan Island, can he survive by drinking the northwest wind?" Hungry for more than ten days, maybe we don't have to fight, they themselves are hungry. ”

Zhong Xiang clapped his hands and laughed, "General Mu's clever plan, clever plan." In this way, victory is won without a fight. ”

"Fight still has to be fought, at least before the delivery personnel set fire to their reserves, they must be beaten, and they must be beaten hard, only in this way can they attract the attention of the opponent!" Mu Chaodao.

"Okay, in that case, two generals, who is willing to take on this heavy responsibility?" Zhong Xiang looked at Huo Qi and Mu Chao.

Everyone couldn't help but be silent, no matter what, this is nine deaths without a lifetime, even if they successfully go to the island, they can successfully light a fire to burn the opponent's reserves, but it is conceivable that when the fire starts, it is the moment when they are exposed, and under the encirclement and suppression of so many troops on the island, there is almost no hope of survival.

Everyone wants to make a contribution, but no one wants to make a wedding dress for others, let alone write their name first on the merit book, and they have become a dead body.

Looking around, Zhong Xiang couldn't help but show a look of disappointment, no one was willing to come forward, "Everyone also understands that this matter is basically a life and death job, but, for the victory of the army, for His Royal Highness King Ning, we need such a person to come forward, I don't want to force everyone, let's draw lots to decide, the one who catches this dead word, the one who leads the team to go!" ”

"General Zhong, we are the generals of the naval division, and we can only command ships to fight?" Hu Bin retorted.

Zhong Xiang sneered, "Who is the army general, the Marine Corps also belongs to the Marine Division, and everyone in the account, including me, needs to draw lots." ”

The stern gaze swept towards everyone, and all the generals lowered their heads, since Zhong Xiang himself had to participate in the lottery, what else did everyone have to say, there were more than a dozen generals and generals in the tent, and it was not necessarily their turn.

In a moment, Zhong Xiang's lieutenant officer brought a tray, and more than a dozen identical paper balls were placed in the tray, Zhong Xiang glanced at everyone, took the lead in picking up a paper ball, and said sharply: "If I go, the whole army will continue to fight under the command of General Mu Chao!" ”

Unfolded the paper ball, slapped it on the case with a snap, but it was a new word, and the Chinese officer on the side couldn't help but let out a sigh, and even Zhong Xiang felt a lot more relaxed.

Mu Chao opened the paper ball and put it in front of Zhong Xiang, "Sheng!" ”

One after another, the paper balls were unfolded and placed in front of Zhong Xiang, all of which were new words. There was only one left, which was held tightly in the hand of a man, his face flushed, and his hand trembled slightly.

"General Hu Bin?" Zhong Xiang looked over, and everyone's eyes looked over.

Standing up with heavy steps, he walked in front of Zhong Xiang, unfolded the paper ball, and placed it in front of Zhong Xiang, a black dead word stood out in the middle of a large number of new words.

"The death squad is selected by General Hu Bin from the whole army, and all officers and non-commissioned officers below the rank of lieutenant must not be pushed for any reason, nor can they not be handed over to General Hu for any reason!" Zhong Xiang said sharply.

"The last general obeys!" The people in the tent responded violently, in the spirit of the dead Taoist friends who do not die and the poor Dao, now that he has a top bag, who does he choose? Anyway, it is impossible to choose your own head.

"Lieutenant officer! Provide the best armor, the best weapons, the best life for the team selected by General Hu, and respond to the request, understand? ”

"Understood!"

"During General Hu Bin's expedition, the command of the third battalion was temporarily handed over to Tong Zhipeng, the former deputy of General Hu, for the time being!"

"The last general obeys!" Tong Zhipeng stood up excitedly, everyone knew that this was a job with no return, that is to say, from now on, he would be the commander of the third battalion in the name of it.

That night, all the generals and officials of Zhong Xiang's department, except for Hu Bin, slept soundly.

After resting for a day on the volcanic island, Zhong Xiang's army immediately approached Lianshan Island, which is about a hundred miles away from Lianshan Island.

Deng Peng led the main fleet away, but there should still be some sailors on Lianshan Island, but there is no trace of this fleet that should exist so far, which makes Zhong Xiang a little uneasy, this fleet has not been found near Lianshan Island, so, where will they stare at themselves, ready to pounce on themselves and bite themselves?

The so-called once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the well rope, now Zhong Xiang, is indeed very careful every step, which knows that the strength of this water division must be quite weak, if it is a head-on battle, it is even vulnerable, but when it was defeated, how could he not occupy an absolute advantage in military strength?

Carefully Zhong Xiang divided the division into three echelons, the first wave was led by the second and third battalions as the vanguard, he led the Chinese army and the first two battalions in the center, the fourth and fifth battalions as the tail, separated by more than ten nautical miles in the middle, each wave in the process of marching into a strict battle formation, into Lianshan Island within a hundred miles, strictly speaking, every sea area here may become a battlefield at any time.

This reduces speed, but it is safer, and time is not an issue for Zhong Xiang now.

Zhong Xiang's worries were not unreasonable, and at noon, fifty nautical miles from Lianshan Island, he finally discovered the guessed opponent's fleet.

A naval fleet consisting of more than a dozen 3,000-material warships and twenty or thirty thousand-material warships appeared more than ten nautical miles on the left side of the fleet.

Seeing that the opponent finally appeared, Zhong Xiang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, I am most afraid that you will not show up, as long as you appear, you will be bitten by me, with your current strength, it is not the fish on my felt board, it seems that the original general estimate was good, in order to ensure that King Zhou can be sent to Dingzhou smoothly, Deng Peng is pouring out, so that such an important base as Lianshan Island actually only left such a tattered water division to stay.

"Send a signal to Dai Zhicheng, the fifth battalion of the tail army, and the fifth battalion will attack, and after defeating this water division, it will converge with the main force and attack Lianshan Island together!" Zhong Xiang ordered loudly. The fifth battalion has two 5,000-material warships, more than 10 3,000-material warships, and other various ships, which is more than enough to clean up the opponent.

A moment later, the 5th Battalion, which had been ordered, turned around and sailed towards the Dingzhou Naval Division, which was more than ten miles away.

It seemed that seeing that the opponent's strength was too much stronger than their own, the Dingzhou ships in the distance immediately turned around and ran towards them when they saw that the southern army had split their fleets and sailed towards them.

At this time, the wind was blowing in their direction, and the strong wind blew the sails up, and the ships rode the wind and waves, and walked extremely fast, and soon, both fleets disappeared from Zhong Xiang's field of vision.

Zhong Xiang is very relieved of Dai Zhicheng, one is Dai Zhicheng is a sailor general, and the other is that the famous sailor generals in Dingzhou are only Deng Peng and Zheng Zhiyuan, and the others are unknown, and they have not even commanded the battle independently, as long as they do not run into Deng Zheng and the two, Dai Zhicheng is definitely a sure winner.

In the Dingzhou Navy Fleet, Black Eagle sat on the aft deck of the tall building, a pair of long legs resting on the side of the ship and shaking, one hand caressing the big eagle on the side, and the other hand caressing his neatly groomed beard, "Come on, come on, turtle son, grandpa will send you to the Sea Dragon King to be a son-in-law, to eat raw seafood, hahaha!" ”

A personal soldier next to him held a string of small fish in his hand, and from time to time threw one to the big eagle next to Black Hawk, while jokingly saying: "General, you see that those turtle sons are chasing so fast, I'm afraid that I will be too late to be the son-in-law of the Sea Dragon King!" ”

Black Hawk laughed, "These bastards, seeing that Lao Tzu has few people, came to bully me, what did Lao Tzu do before, pirates!" If I hadn't been caught off guard and hadn't escaped, General Zheng wouldn't have been able to catch me, and I would have to suffer a loss. But ah, in his hands, it has become my creation, otherwise, what is the current me? ”

"That is, our general is blessed with a great fate, and this is going to be promoted again!" Soldiers laugh together.

Black Eagle smirked, "When it comes to the hydrology of the hundreds of miles around this Lianshan Island, I am familiar with it?" Do these bastards bully people more than they rely on the boat? Wait a day or two, and I'll make you look good! ”

Black Hawk set a big trap for his opponent in one place.
