517 wreaks havoc
Out of the lighthouse, I swaggered to the bazaar in the town of Kawakay with a small detachment of disguised Stygian sailors, followed by the other undisguised sailors from a distance.
It was late at night, the market was already closed, and there were no people and ghosts along the way. After the Yin army entered Hekou Town, Lin Miao imposed a curfew, and there was no justifiable reason, and the residents of the town did not dare to run around. The only ones who can come out to the streets at this time are the sentinels on duty of the Yin Army.
However, the ghost cultivators such as the Three Swords and the Iron Head all had resentment, and even if they were wearing the clothes of the Yin Army soldiers, they still couldn't hide the black mist that permeated their bodies. It's okay to be far away, and you can't really see it in the dark, but it's still easy to be spotted when it's close. So, as soon as we arrived outside the bazaar, we resumed our creeping and stealth ways, and quietly approached the sentry post set up by the Yin army.
The sentry on duty at this place is a little more responsible than the one in the lighthouse just now. They were divided into two groups of five, guarding the front and back entrances to the market area. We are approaching an entrance at the back.
I asked Sandao and Tietou to quietly outflank each of the sailors from both sides, and I emerged from the darkness and walked straight to the five Yin Army sentinels.
"Who's coming?" One of the sentries quickly spotted me and shouted.
I took a closer look, and none of the five sentinels wore belt tags around their waists. It seems that the leader here should only be a military commander.
I took off the long waist card that I had just arrived, held it high, and asked with a big grin: "I am the commander of the baggage battalion of the Left Army at night, and General Shentu sent me here to give orders. What are you long? ”
According to the chief's account, the sentries stationed in the bazaar also belonged to Shen Turen's men, and were a member of the ninth battalion. Sure enough, as soon as I heard Shen Turen's name, the soldier who had just spoken out to ask me stood up and saluted me and replied, "Our Lin Shi is at the front door. ”
"Okay, you all go with me to see Lin Shichang, General Shentu has another assignment for you." I pretended to say that I raised my feet and went straight into the market.
The five sentries felt a little strange in their hearts, but I only asked them to take me with them to their own commander, and such a request was not enough to arouse their wariness.
At this moment, the sailors of the Underworld Harbor such as the Three Swords and the Iron Head made a move. They quickly emerged from the darkness as the sentries turned around, strangling their necks, covering their mouths, and stabbing them from behind, killing them. The whole process didn't make any big noise, and it was clean and clean.
"Lord, do we still want to touch the front and kill the other five?" Three knives asked me.
I waved my hand and said, "No need, wait for them to come to the door automatically." ”
With that, I commanded my twenty sailors to disperse in search of materials to start a fire. The sailors quickly found all sorts of hay, bamboo chips, and small half-barrels of stone grease. I had them set up a few ignition points in the bazaar, doused with stone grease, and lit the fire with hay and bamboo chips.
The fire was on fire, and the temperature in the bazaar in Hekou Town suddenly became hot. The sky-high flames were especially evident in the darkness, and I am afraid that half the people of the town could see them, if they had not slept at this time.
"It's on fire! Let's put out the fire! ”
A scream came from the front entrance of the market. Then, a chief and four other sentries rushed over in a panic, picked up buckets and went to put out the fire.
I waved my hand and said, "Kill them!" ”
When the sailors of the Harbor heard the order, they immediately jumped out of the shadows, the cold arrows came first, and the sharp knives followed.
"Ahh Yes! Yes! ”
"Not good! There is an enemy attack! ”
"Die!"
The five soldiers of the Yin Army were the opponents of the twenty sailors of the Underworld, and even the three knives and the iron head let them shout a few times before they were cut to the ground.
This is an important business area in Hekou Town, even if the marshal of the night tour does not save it, Lin Miao will come to save it. According to the agreement I made with the water demon in advance, as soon as my side set fire, its side began to scuttle the boat while the Yin army was in chaos. When retreating, the water demon still needs to find a way to grab two or three enemy speedboats to escape, and I will take the previous ten speedboats to the waters outside the port area to meet them.
However, it wasn't enough to set fire to the market area, so I decided that I had to make a little more noise. Since the workshop area has been suspended, there is no need to burn it, maybe I will grab it back in the future. In this vicinity, the target that can force the Yin army to react is naturally the military camp. According to the chief's confession, the elite troops living in the military camp in Hekou Town have been replaced by the Yin Army.
I took twenty sailors and ran quickly and ventured all the way to the back of the barracks. At this time, there was already a commotion in the town, and the soldiers of the Yin Army on the other sentry posts all ran out to watch in the direction of the market. I'm not welcome, see one and kill the other, and make the movement as loud as possible.
However, with our small number of troops, we will definitely not be able to storm the barracks, and in fact, there is no need to do so. I simply asked a few of my archers to smear the arrows with stone grease and shoot them through the back wall of the barracks, and succeeded in lighting a few small fires.
Although the fire was not large, the barracks exploded suddenly, and the panicked shouts of the soldiers, the shouts of the officers to stop the orders, and the sound of weapons, armor, buckets and other objects falling to the ground came one after another. There was a mess in the barracks, and then it triggered a chain reaction, with reinforcements sent from the port lord's mansion, and there was also a commotion in the port area.
"Withdraw!" I gave the order decisively.
The tasks on my side have been completed, and the rest depends on the progress of the water monster.
Following the direction from which I came, I quickly withdrew with this surprise team to the edge of the cave wall outside the lighthouse, where ten speedboats were already waiting for us. Once all the Stygian sailors had jumped aboard, the speedboat rowed along the shoreline around the lighthouse to the harbor area.
The port area, which was supposed to be heavily guarded, was now in chaos. Several of the large ships were leaning forward or backward, apparently with damaged bottoms and flooding. The soldiers of the Yin Army are not regular sailors, and it is easy to panic when they encounter this kind of thing, not only do they not want to get off the bottom of the boat to fill the hole and scoop up the water, but they all squeeze on the dock, and they all want to escape from the ship that is about to sink under their feet as soon as possible. Many of the soldiers who couldn't make it to the dock simply jumped into the water and then fluttered ashore in embarrassment.
As a result, none of our ten speedboats noticed us when they approached the port area. Of course, the Yin Army uniforms worn by me and Sandao, Iron Head, etc., should also play a role in some camouflage.
"Don't run around! Don't run around! The enemy is underwater! The enemy is underwater! An officer in the harbor area shouted from the largest flagship.
I recognized him at a glance, it was Xu Zhou, the guard of the estuary who had fought alongside me to repel the water thieves. He is probably also the general who knows the most about water warfare in this improvised Yin Army and Water Army.
In addition, I was very surprised to find a familiar face: standing next to Xu Zhou was my old boss, the current opponent Marshal Night Tour!
Marshal Night Tour blushed and watched angrily as his panicked men fled in all directions. But he is also not familiar with water warfare and shipping, so he can only rely on Xu Zhou to deal with such emergencies.
Xu Zhou was in a hurry to drive several teams of diving estuary town sailors into the sea and let them deal with the invisible enemy hiding underwater. Seeing this, the commanders of the other warships finally reacted and sent their men into the water to search.
"They're here! They're here! An estuary sailor poked his head out of the water and shouted as he pointed to the bottom of the flagship. Obviously, the next target for the Harbor sailors such as the Water Demon is the enemy's flagship.
Xu Zhou hurriedly shouted: "Shoot arrows!" Shoot an arrow into the water! ”
"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ”
A shower of arrows shot from the side of the ship, burrowing into the water along the hull of the ship. The defenders who had already run to the dock also stabilized their minds, and those with bows and arrows also began to shoot arrows into the water. But after a while, there seemed to be no reaction from under the boat.
Xu Zhou shouted again: "Throw down the ghost fire lamp!" ”
The sailors on the ship quickly took off a few ghost fire lamps and threw them into the water, and the Yin soldiers standing on the dock also threw ghost fireballs into the water. Hundreds of ghost fires suddenly turned the water green, and at the same time, dozens of humanoid black shadows under the water had nowhere to hide.
"It's a water ghost! That's it, shoot me again! ”
Another round of arrows rained into the water, only this time it was more targeted and more accurate.
"Poof! Kiss! Kiss! ”
Several large bubbles emerged from the water, bursting and rising in a thick cloud of black smoke. My heart tightened, knowing that it was my own ghost soldiers who had been shot by arrows, and that black smoke was their broken souls. I wonder if the leading water demon is injured?
"Gollum! Grunt! Grunt! ”
But immediately afterwards, a series of even greater blisters rushed to the surface, and the bow of the flagship of the Marshal Night Tour's ship sank sharply, and the people on board immediately screamed. Well, this ship was still scuttled through the bottom of the ship by potential underwater daredevils such as water demons!
"The people under the cabin hurry up and plug the hole in the bottom of the ship! Everyone on deck lined up to get off the cabin to scoop water! Xu Zhou was in a hurry and successively issued orders to save the ship. If even this flagship is sunk, there will be no warships in the harbor of Estuary Town that can fight!
In addition to being overjoyed, I began to worry about the safety of the water demon and other daredevils, and anxiously whispered: "Take it when you see it, it's time to take the boat and leave!" ”
However, at this moment, the green light emitted by the ghost fire has been reflected below the surface of the water, and it looks like a goldfish pond with night lights, and even if you stand on the shore, you can clearly see the dark shadows under the water. Not to mention seizing the boat, I'm afraid that the water demons don't dare to take their heads easily, once they come out of the water, they will be greeted by a rain of arrows.
