Chapter 188: Ambush

When I learned the news that the sea wolf was going to temporarily evacuate all the people on the island, there were some stubborn old people who refused to leave anything, thinking that this was their home, there was their field here, and even if they died, they had to guard their fields and their homes, Yu Xiaotian was stubborn to such an old stubbornness, but he didn't die hard, let them go, people have their own right to choose life and death, since they don't want to live anymore, then this can't blame him Yu Xiaotian for abandoning it.

So when the officials and soldiers began to make a big rope on the island, they still caught more than 100 old people in various villages, and after interrogation, these islanders were sure that the sea wolves had abandoned here, and even the young and strong islanders on the island followed along, leaving only their old bones unwilling to go, so they stayed.

This time, Yu Zhigao and Zhang Jiace's mental calculations were completely put in their stomachs, and through the news obtained from the interrogation, they confirmed that the sea wolf was determined not to want this Nanri Island, and even the islanders on the island were taken away, so what else did they have to worry about?

Therefore, there is no need for them to hint at it, these old men who were caught were cut off their heads by the officers and soldiers, and became trophies of the officers and soldiers.

As for the villages on those islands, they were naturally searched by the officials and soldiers, and as long as there was anything of value, they were all collected by the officials and soldiers, and the remaining houses were burned down by the officials and soldiers.

In the eastern mountains, on a small hill, under the shade of the woods, several people squatted in the woods, set up a monocular high-powered telescope, silently observing the situation on the island.

This kind of telescope is actually a larger version of an ordinary monocular, with a relatively high magnification and can see farther, but because of the difficulty of making lenses, the sea wolf has just been trial-produced, but the clarity is incomparable with the telescopes of later generations, but in this era, it is already considered a black technology, which is enough for users to see far away through the lens, even if they are not very clear, they can also see a rough idea.

"Damn, these damn officers and soldiers are not as fucking good as bandits! I can't wait to kill them right now, so that they can see how powerful we are! A soldier in a Seawolf Army uniform, holding a newly issued wolf's tooth rifle, looked through the binoculars and couldn't help but curse.

Another soldier immediately approached the telescope, and also observed through the eyepiece, several villages in the distance had been burned at this time, from the lens, they could even see the nearest village, the officers and soldiers in it dragged out a few people, pulled them to the outside of the village, and cut off the heads of these people with a bang, and the headless corpses fell to the ground.

So the soldier also let go of the binoculars, sighed softly, patted the soldier who spoke, and said, "Don't worry, Liuzi! When it's time to do it, it's sure to make you have a good time!

Although we don't know the arrangements of the big bosses, we can almost guess that the big bosses want to stabilize these officers and soldiers first, and then do it!

It must be the sailors who will do it first, and after killing the fleet of officers and soldiers, they will block these officers and soldiers on the island, and we will only do it when the time comes.

Didn't the big boss say it? Now suffer a little loss first, let them take advantage of it, and then let them pay it back with interest! Okay, see no, a few officers and soldiers are coming this way!

Let's not be idle, hurry up and prepare! Don't let them go into the mountains and discover our camp! โ€

Sure enough, a dozen officers and soldiers, led by a man who looked like officers, left a village that had caught fire at the bottom of the mountain, and walked towards this side of the mountain, as if intending to enter the mountain to search.

On the first day of the search, the officers and soldiers focused on the villages on the island, and did not pay attention to this large mountainous area in the eastern part of Nanri Island.

Now these villages have been searched by the official army, and they can no longer find anything valuable, so they have begun to pay attention to the eastern mountains, some people think that even if the sea wolves take away most of the islanders, there must still be some islanders who will not leave, and if they don't get it, they will hide in the mountains, wait for them to leave, and continue to come out to farm.

The attachment of the common people to the land is unimaginable, and now the officers and soldiers see that a large area of farmland has been reclaimed on the island, and it is difficult for the common people to give up this place lightly, so there must be many people who will not leave here lightly, but they dare not stay in the village, so it is very likely that they will hide in this mountainous area in the east of the island.

If they can find these islanders, it is estimated that they will bring some soft things, and the most interesting thing for them is that they can catch a lot of women.

The officers and soldiers have no military discipline at all, they are worse than bandits in some kind of Cheng dรน, and they finally went to the island, and now they have nothing to catch, and they haven't even caught a woman, how can this make them willing, so some officers and soldiers rushed towards the mountains, wanting to go into the mountains to search and see if they can be lucky, catch some islanders, and it is better to catch some women, so at least they can have fun!

As a result, some officers and soldiers scouted the horses and began to search for them one after another.

Li Er's body was draped in a tree branch and a straw hat made of withered straw, lying on a grassy slope in the ravine, and if he didn't get close and take a closer look, he wouldn't be able to find his existence at all.

Around him, there were also a few soldiers dressed like him, each of whom was disguised with various branches and withered grass collected on the spot, and covered their bodies tightly, and walked from the valley, even if they walked in front of them, it was difficult to find their existence if they did not look carefully.

And among them, some of them were armed with a strong crossbow, and some were armed with a wolf's tooth rifle, and they all held their breath and looked down the valley.

At this time, there was a small group of officers and soldiers scouting horses, who were walking into the mountains on foot, because this time they were fighting on the island, and it was inconvenient to carry war horses, and the officers and soldiers basically did not bring horses, but only brought a small number of horses to the generals, and Fujian itself was very short of horses, and the number of war horses equipped with the officers and soldiers was also very small, so it was not surprising that the officers and soldiers in the south were mostly on foot.

And the scouting horses of these officers and soldiers were obviously not cautious, nor did they have the slightest consciousness of scouting, and did not discharge the battle formation at all, but a group of people walked into the valley loosely, occasionally looking around, and laughing from time to time, as if they were traveling.

Looking at the appearance of these official and military scouts, Li Er pursed his lips, bit a withered grass in his mouth, poked the strong crossbow forward, and slowly locked on to the officer among the officers and soldiers who were only a few dozen steps away from them through Wangshan.

And as he began to move, the other soldiers also reached out their weapons and began to lock on to their targets.

Li Er is now the captain of the scout team of the first battalion of the army, although the scout team has only one platoon of personnel, but his military rank is lieutenant, the same level as the company commander, and his subordinate scouts are all non-commissioned officers, at least a sergeant, and some even have the rank of second lieutenant.

These people are all elites selected from various companies, and each of them has some good at tracking, some are good at setting traps, some are good at using strong bows and crossbows, and some are good at hand-to-hand combat, so they were selected and formed a scout team, which specializes in special tasks such as reconnaissance and sneak attacks.

These battalion scout teams belong to the battalion scouts of the army, which can be regarded as an exclusive special operations force at the battalion level, and they are definitely the elite personnel in the army, but they are still slightly weaker in strength than the special combat team directly controlled by Yu Xiaotian, but they are completely qualified as scouts.

Li Er was transferred from the company, otherwise he would be at least a company commander now, and might even be a deputy battalion commander, but Li Er was very satisfied with the decision to transfer him out and let him lead this scout team, he had always wanted to do such a thing, and now he got what he wanted.

The first battalion was left behind on Nanri Island this time, and as a scout team, he naturally had to shoulder the monitoring and protection of the surrounding area of the camp to prevent their camp from being discovered by the officers and soldiers.

From the time the officers and troops landed on the island, they closely monitored the movements of the officers and troops, and the scouts on the mountain just now used small glass lenses to reflect the sunlight and notify the arrival of the officers and troops, so they set up an ambush in advance on the way for the officers and troops to enter the mountain, and prepared to block the scouts of the officers and troops.

The group of officers and soldiers who entered the mountain were at a loss as to their current situation, and they still walked towards the mountain leisurely, and they never thought that the Grim Reaper had already set their sights on them, and as they walked on the road, they boasted to each other, telling some colored jokes, and saying how many women they had played with.

At this moment, they were only heard on the hillside not far from them, and suddenly there was a loud sound, followed by a slight sound of breaking the air.

The general who walked in the middle of the line suddenly tightened his nerves, and just as he was about to scream badly, a sharp crossbow arrow flew in front of him with a whoosh, and nailed him to his throat impartially.

The scout leader immediately covered his throat with his hands, grunted a few times, rolled his eyes, and fell to the ground on his back.

At this moment, these officers and soldiers were frightened, and hurriedly raised their eyes to look around, and some people exclaimed: "Enemy attack! Alert! "I wanted to find the enemy's tracks, but at this moment, from the hillside on their flanks, crossbow arrows began to fly down at the same time, and one after another knocked some of them to the ground.

The wounded officers and soldiers immediately let out terrible screams, covered their wounds and struggled on the ground, frightened the remaining officers and soldiers scouts, turned around and ran wildly out of the mountain.

They already knew that there was a group of people who were going to ambush them, and what was even more terrible was that they did not find the form of the enemy, and continued to stay in the valley, just waiting for death, and the wisest thing to do at this time was to leave this place of death as soon as possible and run out to report the news.

(Haha, I saw the old brother's affectionate reward again!) Thank you so much! ๏ผ‰
