Just as Li Tang was immersed in joy, he suddenly heard the sound of three long and two short warning gongs outside, warning the village of an attack. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Li Tang immediately went out, and saw Nie Jun arranging defenses everywhere in a familiar way.

Seeing this, Li Tang's heart was slightly put into his stomach.

It turned out that the village was in a wide area of view on the mountain behind Linhai Town, and a hunter's lookout was arranged. As soon as a fleet of ships arrives, smoke is set off.

When the soldiers on duty saw the beacon smoke, they would judge how many ships were coming according to the signals agreed in advance. Then, depending on the situation, decide whether to send a warning signal.

Generally speaking, emitting 1 beacon smoke means less than 5 large ships. And this time 4 were issued at once, which means that there are between 15 and 20 ships coming.

If it was a tsunami their fleet came back, there should have been only 4 large ships. Therefore, the soldiers on duty sounded a warning gong to remind the village to prepare for war.

Since it might be an enemy attack, Li Tang naturally put on the Jiyun Martial Arts suit and rushed to the water village to prepare to meet the enemy.

The residents of Linhai Town already have experience in dealing with pirate attacks, and they are not so flustered when they hear the warning.

The soldiers and generals all obeyed Nie Jun's advance arrangement and returned to their posts. The defense of the defense, the boarding of the boarding.

The sailors on the fireship also boarded the fireship without hesitation, hid in a hidden position, and prepared to attack the enemy ship at any time.

The militia is maintaining law and order, coordinating the preparation of the population to treat the wounded.

Everything was going on in an orderly manner, and there wasn't much panic. Of course, this is also the credit of Nie Jun following Li Tang's advice and conducting two pirate attack exercises.

Because it was daytime, Nie Jun also sent a red horse boat to investigate. At present, the specific enemy situation is not clear, and we can only prepare for the worst. Everything is ready and waiting for the attack.

After waiting for about an hour and a half, news came from the front, informing the fleet that the flag was Dove of Peace, and that it should be their own fleet, and the alarm should be lifted.

Nie Jun was rewarded, and his solemn face softened slightly. However, he still did not order the alarm to be lifted, but instead sent several other red horse boats to investigate in detail.

In the anxious waiting of everyone, these red horse boats finally came to report that it was the Tsunami and others' fleets that returned, a total of 19 boats of all sizes.

Nie Jun only notified him and lifted the alarm on a limited basis. In addition, the red horse boat was sent to inform the fleet, every 4 ships as a team, and slowly entered the water village. Other vessels anchored 2 nautical miles away from Linhai Town. After one team enters the water village, the other ships will anchor and enter the water village again.

Although, Li Tang felt that Nie Jun had done something too much, and just wanted to intervene. Then he thought that since he had given Nie Jun full responsibility for defense, intervening would damage Nie Jun's face.

Among the first four ships to come in, the first ones were tsunami and sea waves.

When they got off the boat, the tsunami did not change their faces, the waves were unhappy, and the generals were even more indignant.

Nie Jun is also clever, he was originally a subordinate of the tsunami, and when he saw the waves and the tsunami getting off the boat, he knew that there should be no problem.

So, he hurried to meet the tsunami and his party, and hurriedly said:

"The young general is too cautious, neglects the generals, and makes amends to the heroes who have returned from afar!"

Tsunami has always known that Nie Jun is cautious and will not be deliberately embarrassed. Besides, Nie Jun's posture is so low, even if he deliberately complains about two sentences, he will be inferior. So, he patted Nie Jun on the shoulder and expressed his satisfaction.

The others had already expressed their stance when they saw the tsunami, and the others would not be able to find trouble with Nie Jun.

Li Tang hurriedly stepped forward and relieved Nie Jun of the siege:

"Before, you saw that the number of ships was too large, and I was afraid that the enemy would deceive our flag and arrange for them to enter the water village in formation, which is understandable. Now, now that you know that it is the triumphant return of General Hai, why don't you give the order to welcome the return of the heroes? ”

"Yes, my lord. The youngster was negligent. I'll give the order. ”

"Someone, notify the fleet behind, don't drop anchor, all set sail and enter the water village!"

"General Hai, it's been hard these days! Seeing that the fleet is so large, I'm afraid it's a lot of gains! ”

"Thanks to the lord Hongfu, this harvest is really not small, and let me bring it to the lord one by one."

It turned out that after Li Tang retreated and cultivated, the Roaring Sky Dog found Ye Biao, Tsunami and others, and pointed out six villages and towns from the Penghu topographic map.

All six towns and villages are by the sea. There are two larger ones, similar to Linhai Town. The four are small in size and should be villages.

Tsunami and others are also people who can't be idle. And other generals were forced by Li Tang to train in the barracks, and it was also very annoying. Therefore, everyone found Ye Biao and Tsunami, hoping to go out to let off steam, and fight. And there happens to be a target sent to the door, how can they be idle?

It was also that the first few battles were too smooth, making them feel that fighting was really simple. Especially when they attacked the Shengfan cottage, they earned a lot of rewards. I heard that Li Tang still has a lot of tiger skins and tiger whips in his hands, and the generals are naturally ready to move.

Therefore, after the tsunami obtained Ye Biao's support, he and other generals carried 4 silver-class warships, 8 bronze-class warships, 8 red horse boats, plus less than 2,400 people who could be mobilized, and combined with 2,500 rattan armor soldiers, and drove to the nearest village and town by boat.

The war was initiated by the Howling Dog, and it naturally wanted to participate in it.

However, at this time, the Howling Dog is not controlled by the big black dog, but is completely hosted by the system. At this time, it is extremely intelligent.

Arriving at the nearest village, the Howling Dog took advantage of its own deceptiveness and swaggered into the village to investigate. Eventually, it was discovered that this village was an ordinary pirate village.

In the village, there is only one 100-long silver-class pirate ship, and a few other small ships.

This village, which is about 2,000 people, is usually stationed on ships by many pirates.

There are also more pirates who train around. It is estimated that the village is small, and I am more worried about being attacked by others, so my vigilance is very high.

For this kind of small cottage, the tsunami must have been a shock to them.

However, the normally cautious tsunami did not do so. He clearly knew that Linhai Village had relied on a few small red horse boats to destroy the seven 120-meter-long silver-level giant ships that were attacked.

Therefore, if you want to attack, you must choose a foolproof strategy and not act recklessly.

Thinking of the sneak attack tricks that Li Tang has always used, the tsunami is naturally the first choice for the tried and tested sneak attack!

Of course, sneak attacks also have to prevent being counter-sneak attacks, similar examples of Romance of the Three Kingdoms abound!

Tsunami is not worried about being counterattacked. It's not that he's conceited, it's that he has a super scout - the Howling Dog! If there is an ambush, there is nothing that the Howling Dog can't find. The highest level of camouflage is that there is no need to disguise, so the Howling Sky Dog can swagger over to investigate. Just walk around, and you will have all the information!

The tsunami is not to eradicate the villages, but to wipe them out.

In this way, it is still difficult to use sneak attacks. Because, once the pirates find that there are too many enemies, they may slip away by boat.

It's not that I'm afraid of pirates slipping away, but I'm afraid that pirates will leak out. In this way, it is difficult for the pirate village behind to sneak attack.

If it's a single pirate, there's nothing to be afraid of slipping off land. Because, the survival of pirates who ran to the mountains was a problem, let alone a ventilation report. Be afraid, in case the pirates escape from the sea. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that not a single leaf of the ship is lost.

The tsunami was intended to send vine armor soldiers to attack from land in the middle of the night to attract the attention of the pirates on the ship.

Of course, the number of people who started the attack should not be too large, and try to attract the pirates on board to shore. After all, pirates don't run away as soon as they are attacked.

In addition, the attack can attract the attention of the pirates on the ship, even if it does not attract pirates ashore. Let them focus their attention on the shore and create the conditions for a tsunami to attack from the sea.

In the middle of the night, the vine armor soldiers appeared, and they were discovered by the night watch soldiers at the first time. For a while, gongs and drums rang out in the village.

There were only 500 people in the first vine armor soldiers, and they braved arrows to prepare a large number of combustible materials and put them at the gate and wall, and then set them on fire.

The pirate soldiers on duty wanted to extinguish the fire, but unfortunately the fire was outside the gate, so they could only push the fire away with forks. And with the fork, there will be a defensive empty goal, which will be shot by the vine armor soldiers. Moreover, there were too many fires for a few soldiers on duty to push away at once. can only watch the firewood and grass ignite the gate and wall.

But fortunately, the burning gate and wall also blocked the attack of the vine armor soldiers, which made the pirates feel a little more at ease. After all, a little more time to prepare, whether it's defending or escaping, can buy time.

By the light of the burning fire, the pirates were a little relieved to find that the attackers were all wearing rattan armor, and the number of people was about 500.

After all, although Shengban is vicious, they are poorly weaponized. For example, they don't have armor, they can only use rattan to make armor, don't they wear it with a single shot?

Therefore, the pirates were not prepared to run away, and they called on the pirates on the ships to come ashore to help, leaving only a small number of pirates to watch the ships, and in case of discord, they would run away immediately.

In other words, the tsunami is guarding this pirate village a few nautical miles away. As soon as he saw the fire, he immediately hoisted his sails and headed towards the pirate village. Taking advantage of the pirate's unpreparedness, he immediately jumped into the gang, engaged in a broadside battle, and occupied the big ship.

And the red horse boat bites the pirate ships to prevent them from escaping. Then, as the tsunami stabilized the situation, he turned around and packed up the boats.

When all is done, the tsunami begins to occupy the water village and block the docks. At the same time, the drums were sounded to inform the rattan armor soldiers that the water had been successful.

When the rattan soldiers on the shore heard the sound of the drums, they appeared together and surrounded the village.

The people in the village saw that there was no hope of escaping, and they couldn't defeat so many rattan armor soldiers. And, even if you can fight, lose your ships, and you can only be besieged to death.

Therefore, after hearing that there was a tsunami at the dock and others persuaded them to surrender, and after being told to surrender and avoid death, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that not all the people who came were alive, and they lost the courage to fight to the death.

Originally, the pirates in the village saw the dense Shengfan outside, and naturally knew what would happen if they fell into the hands of Shengfan, so they thought that there was still a way to survive. If you surrender, there is only one dead end.

Now seeing the tsunami and others persuading him to surrender, I heard that the tsunami is also a remnant of the Han Dynasty, so he naturally surrendered. If it is a Han compatriot, they all pay attention to etiquette and morality, so they should not be killed!

Tsunami, of course, was willing to accept surrender.

If you want to surrender, you must first hand over your weapons and put them on the dock.

The tsunami ordered each ship to raise its torches, illuminating the dense array of soldiers on board, all of whom were in full armor and murderous.

Seeing this, the pirates tried to surrender at the last of their hearts, and the luck of robbing the ship disappeared.

This situation lasted until dawn. The gates and walls had long since burned down, and the pirates had no choice but to be captured.

Of the pirates captured, 1,100 were combatants and more than 1,300 were other non-combatants.

The tsunami ordered the village to be scavenged with all the soft and weapons, and all other materials that were not suitable for carrying were not brought. In this way, it will not have much impact on the combat effectiveness of the fleet.

In addition, Tsunami's own men divided part of their forces and boarded the captured ship, which was about 100 meters long and was also a silver-class battleship, similar to the Shark.

For the captured combatants, Tsunami drew some low-level non-commissioned officers to supplement his fleet. Since then, the combat effectiveness of the fleet has increased instead of decreasing.

The high-ranking members of the captives and some of the unscrupulous people, along with the non-combatants, were all imprisoned in the Jongmyo Temple. In order to ensure combat effectiveness, these useless personnel and potential destabilizing factors must not be carried with them in the tsunami.

However, how to properly settle them, the tsunami has also put a lot of effort into it.

First of all, to ensure that they cannot rebel. It is very necessary to touch the armament and take away all the weapons.

Second, make sure they don't run away. They were held in the temple and guarded by 100 rattan infantrymen. At the same time, there are shipbuilding talents in the life occupations that are taken away, ensuring that even if they get out of trouble, they will not be able to build ships and leave this place.

Again, guarantee that they will not starve to death. Then there would have to be enough food left, about 100 tons. Basically, it was possible to ensure that the remaining captives would not starve to death for 3 months.

In addition, the grain was kept in a building and distributed to the captives on a daily basis. At the same time, several rattan armor soldiers were stationed in the building, and the building was also full of combustible dry firewood. Once the captives rebelled, the remaining wisteria soldiers would light dry wood and burn the grain.

The remaining vine armor soldiers will retreat to a hidden place, board the hidden red horse boat, and retreat to Linhai Town.

Of course, these methods were clearly told to the remaining prisoners. Let them understand that they should not act rashly. Otherwise, even if the rebellion succeeds, it will be a dead end. Without food and weapons, it is undoubtedly wishful thinking to live here.

Even if they survive, they will usher in the bloody revenge of the returning Linhai Town fleet.

In this arrangement, as long as the remaining soldiers did not force the prisoners too much, there must not be many prisoners who dared to take a huge risk to rebel.

There are no ships, no food, and even if they succeed, they can't leave. If you can't leave, you may be retaliated against. Moreover, without weapons, it is estimated that even wild beasts will not be able to defend against them. At this time, the remaining vine armor soldiers are their food, clothing, parents and protective umbrellas!

Tsunami also told them that when the other battles were over, they would come back to pick them up, so they didn't have to worry too much.

In the remaining villages and towns, the tsunami was concocted in the same way. Progress has been slow, but it has been effective.

So, they took a total of 4 small villages and 2 medium-sized villages.

During this time, the Howling Dog discovered many pirate villages. However, due to the constant division of troops to guard the prisoners, coupled with the continuous recruitment of new recruits, the control of senior officers over the army has been reduced to the lowest point.

Having lost control over the army, the army naturally loses its combat effectiveness. In addition, there are so many soldiers left behind along the road, if they are not brought back as soon as possible, in case something happens, it will be difficult to do!

So, the tsunami began to arrange for the fleet to return. At the same time, all the captured pirate ships were towed back.

There are 13 larger ones, all of which are silver-class ships. Among them, 4 are 100 meters long, which is about the same size as the battleship Shark; Nine ships of 120 meters, about the size of the Flying Tiger. There are also 2 silver-class transport ships with a length of 200 meters.

There are dozens of small ones, all of which are about 40-60 meters and about 10 meters. There are too many, and there are no longer enough people to operate.

As a last resort, the tsunami made everyone find a hidden corner, and moored all the ships, some red horse boats, small cargo boats, small fishing boats, etc., in a hidden natural harbor.

This time, a total of 6 villages were captured. Brought back gold coins, about 380,000. There are countless other treasures, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, pearls, jade, swords, and so on. Quite a few high-level drawings, which are available in most waterfront towns. There are also some rare drawings, skill books, internal skills, etc.

However, Li Tang didn't have time to count them one by one. However, according to Li Tang's experience, the value of ordinary goods is about twice that of cash.

In addition, the greater gain was the captured combatants, numbering around 21,000; Captured non-combatants, about 24,108 people. This amount is definitely a new record for arresting people in Linhai Town! Of course, there are still a lot of captives who are left in a few villages, waiting for the tsunami to pick them up!

At the same time, the tsunami in the six villages and towns has not been forcibly attacked, so the village construction order has not yet been obtained.

In addition, there are a lot of supplies. Some remained in the village, some on cargo ships. Didn't bring it back this time.
