Chapter 33: Infiltrating the Enemy Ship
The quartermaster's face suddenly became extremely ugly, of course he did not care about the safety of a slave, he was sad that the cart of grain and grass also lost its balance with the fall of the slave, and fell into the sea. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After eating enough of the seawater, the grain and grass immediately sank to the bottom of the sea and disappeared without a trace.
The quartermaster, who was already in a bad mood, was immediately furious, and the cart of grain and grass was at least 800 catties, enough for thousands of people to eat three meals.
If you take into account the long journey to carry the grain, the value of this cart of grain increases at least tenfold.
Only the powerful and invincible Persian Empire could bear such a huge burden of armaments.
The quartermaster's arm with the whip shook suddenly, and the shiny leather whip shook and turned in the air like a spiritual snake, and rolled the slave who was struggling out of the sea, and with a pull, the whole person came out of the water.
The slave seemed to know that his sins were enough to die hundreds of times, and his filthy face was filled with horror.
But the ant still steals life, let alone a slave, he tried to explain: "Quartermaster, I was hit by something just now, and I ......"
The quartermaster has no habit of listening to other people's arguments, not to mention that the other party is only an insignificant slave.
A merciless cold snort came out of the quartermaster's nostrils: "Explanation? Go to hell to explain! ā
The black, thick leather whip contracted suddenly, and in just a few breaths, the hapless slave was torn into several pieces by the leather whip, and fell into the water with stumps of internal organs and blood, staining the sea red.
The quartermaster didn't know that he had reacted as a matter of course, and in the end he had missed an opportunity to pull out the stealthy enemy.
Only Yun Qi knew that the unlucky slave fell into the water by accident.
With the help of the electronic camouflage uniform taken out of the team's common space, Yun Qi successfully infiltrated the Persian warship.
As soon as he boarded the Persian warship, Yun Qi did not act immediately, but followed the original plan he had made, looking for the enemy's flagships one by one.
In the plan, in order to force the Persians to carry all the baggage and men and horses on the shore to the warships, there was a major premise: the enemy must be convinced that the shore is extremely unsafe.
Therefore, a battle is inevitable.
Unfortunately, the Greek coalition was short of manpower, and in addition to a dozen mercenaries, the king of Sparta sent nearly a hundred people to support the operation, which was already the maximum limit of what the king of Leonidas could do.
One hundred and seventeen men fought against four thousand Persian troops, and even if the enemy was all first-order soldiers, this battle was not easy to fight.
What's more, the main forces left on the battleship can be reinforced at any time, and when the time comes, they will have to face all eight thousand people.
This is why Dassaults is strenuously opposed.
Unless they are 100% sure that they can wipe out all 8,000 people in the remaining ten hours in one go, they must also ensure that their own personnel will not be greatly reduced.
Therefore, Yun Qi, who infiltrated the enemy ship, had the primary purpose of attracting enough attention from the enemy's main general, and then taking advantage of the other party's information asymmetry, he let the more than 100 elites lurking nearby wipe out the exhausted Persian slaves on the shore.
Originally, this task was best performed by two agile elders, but when these two guys heard that they were going to enter the enemy ship alone, their heads shook like rattles.
In the end, this difficult and dangerous task could only be carried out by Yun Qi himself.
Yun Qi walked cautiously on the battleships to avoid something similar to the one that had just hit someone.
He has only one goal, the flagship!
Yun Qi didn't stay on the battleship for too long, and it didn't seem to be an easy task to find a slightly larger flagship in the vast four hundred ships.
So, retreating to the second, Yun Qi turned his gaze to the baggage ship.
Soon, Yun Qi appeared in the belly of a baggage ship far from the coast.
The reason why this ship is now far from the coast is to attract more attention after building momentum and share more pressure for operations on the shore.
The belly of the baggage ship is very large, and by the faint light of the candle, you can see that a large amount of grain and grass has been piled up inside, and there are special people to guard and guard it.
However, being sent to the sweltering belly of a ship, guarding a pile of untouched baggage, was obviously not the best soldier in the Persian army.
The clothes on their bodies look like those of the minions.
For the servant soldiers who only had two people, it only took Yun Qi less than two seconds to solve them.
Next, Yun Qi used the only butter candle in the belly of the ship to estimate the burning time, and after blowing out the lamp, he cut off most of the half with a palm knife, and then placed the small half of the candle in a relatively flat place on the dry grain and grass pile.
Only when the remaining candles burned out, the faint spark immediately rekindled the ashes and ignited the entire belly of the ship at the moment of unraveling the grain and grass.
After the simple ignition device was completed, Yun Qi immediately moved to another baggage ship.
This is also why Yun Qi chose to stay away from the coast, and when it was his turn to unload the grain and grass, the fire device inside would have been activated a long time ago.
In this way, Yun Qi wore an electronic camouflage uniform while assassinating the servant soldiers stationed in the belly of the ship and placing ignition devices one by one.
It's just that there is one point, the number of Persian ships is too much, and with Yunqi's skills, it is impossible to install most of the baggage ships behind it with fire devices.
However, Yun Qi has his own unique method, he did not clumsily touch one by one, but selectively spaced several ships to start, so that once the fire spreads, even if there is no cloud-type ignition device, the ancient ships with pure wooden structure can still taste the taste of "burning Chibi".
In this way, it is simply an impossible task to set fire to the remaining nearly 300 baggage ships one by one.
Yun Qi was not in a hurry to deal with the entire Persian navy now, so once the fire broke out, it would inevitably attract the attention of the enemy's commander.
So, after Yun Qi finished making the 21st simple ignition device, he replaced it with a battleship.
Unlike the baggage ships, the Persian ships were a few sizes smaller than the baggage ships, but that was only in relative terms.
According to historical records, at this time, the shipbuilding technology of the Persian Empire was already unique in the world. The battleships built were already comparable to today's battleships in their status at that time.
And because the battleships are stationed with the main force of the Persian navy, many of them are elite and strong, and if they are not careful, they will face a siege of nearly 100 people.
With Yun Qi's psychological quality, walking on the enemy ship where there are as many soldiers as dogs and generals are everywhere, cold sweat involuntarily oozes from his palm.
It is worthy of the battle situation of the golden side quest, and before the tower defense mode is fully opened, the "foreplay" prepared for them by the main god alone is enough for them to drink a pot.
Fortunately, the Lord God did not want them to fight to the death with the nearly 10,000 Persian army.
However, in this environment, Yun Qi still needs to spend a lot of effort to find the enemy's flagship.
However, accidents always happen inadvertently.
Just as Yun Qi silently boarded the fifth battleship, a warrior with a battle armor that was clearly different from the others turned around sharply, and his sharp eyes scanned the entire battleship, as if he had found something.
Yun Qi suddenly chuckled in his heart, knowing that it was not good.
