The cruise ship was quietly anchored on the sea, and since Pisagua did not have a suitable dock, the soldiers had to use the most primitive boat connection method to set foot on this strange land like ants moving.

"Quick, quick! Rest immediately after going ashore and go into battle an hour later! Looking at the soldiers around him who were stuffing dry food into their mouths and queuing up in front of the gangway with guns on their backs to wait for pick-up, although they had already sent a commando team in advance to clear the obstacles, Zhao Long's lips were dry and his throat was smoking.

There was no way, originally he thought that after coming to Chile, he could let the soldiers rest and recuperate first, even if it was a day, who would have thought that as soon as the fleet approached Pisagua, he met two cruisers of the Chilean Navy waiting here, and waited for the liaison officer and a few translators who looked like local Chinese to board the ship, only to know that the Chilean president with a bad name had launched in advance!

The war has been going on for two days!

Grandmother! It's been two days, will I be late? It's all to blame on that bastard of Long Guozhang, it's too powerful, can't you double the speed of the fleet?

Zhao Long's forehead was on fire, but fortunately, Long Guozhang beside him didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, otherwise according to his surname, he would definitely have to go head-to-head with Zhao Long directly! What does it mean to double the boost? Feelings, do you think this is a war horse running on the road! Just this broken ship, the thirteenth festival is already in a hurry!

Since it is too late, then the plan must be adjusted immediately, the original rest must be canceled immediately, and the opponent must be stabbed a few times before he knows that there is a new force to join, so that the descendants of these whites and Indians also know what it means to be "Far Eastern barbarians"!

Thinking of this, Zhao Long hurriedly turned his head, and it happened that Long Guozhang also happened to look at him again, and the two looked at each other, and immediately guessed each other's thoughts.

According to the original plan, he had to send the first troops to the fortress of Iquique after sending the first troops to Pisagua to help the Chilean marines there defend, but now it had to be changed, and it was no longer possible to wait for the first troops to land before leaving.

"Let's break up here!" Long Guozhang glanced at the horizon in the distance, his fist was almost out of the water, no matter what, for the sake of the ironclad, he would not allow defeat.

Zhao Long nodded, and then shouted at a young man not far away who was holding a gun on his back, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he was holding on to the railing to watch a good show.

"Luo Feng!"

"Here!"

When Luo Feng heard the shout, the smile on the corner of his mouth disappeared, and he quickly ran to Zhao Long and Long Guozhang, saluting, returning, clean and neat.

"Go, take your battalion, and set off with the old dragon at once, he will arrange for a ship to escort you to Iquique, and the Chilean cruisers will go with you, to assist the Chilean marines there, and if you encounter an attack, be sure to hold out until we arrive, if the enemy does not notice ......."

"Just his grandma!" Luo Feng blinked, and his answer was smart and cute, clever and crisp.

"Stinky boy." Zhao Long smiled, and when he was interrupted, he didn't care at all, and waved his hand: "Get out!" ”

"Yes!"

Looking at Luo Feng's young back, Long Guozhang nodded, Luo Feng he knew, this kid seems to be cynical, but he is extremely playful in training, and gradually stands out from the escort team, plus this guy is literate and hyphenated, and his mind is flexible, so he was promoted to the commander of the first battalion of the escort team, and the five hundred people under his command have always been known as the elite of the escort team, and the monthly big competition has never been at the top of the list, so he is indeed the best candidate to go to Iquique.

Soon, the two armed freighters took the lead in breaking away from the formation and continued to sail south, and only when the other party disappeared on the sea level did Zhao Long turn his head and shout suddenly: "Notice, all of them must be landed in three hours!" ”

With Zhao Long's order, the soldiers began to gather on the side of the ship, many people took a deep breath while watching their partners board the boat, among them, some have been training for two years, and some have only joined this team for less than half a year, although they shouted the young master's famous words "Soldiers are born to fight", but when the war really came to them, many people were still so nervous that they wanted to pee.

The performance of his subordinates did not surprise Zhao Long, and now he intuitively felt that Li Qiang was lucky, at least a few of his bastards there had actual combat experience, and unlike himself here, they were all new soldiers, no wonder the young master always said that the army that has not experienced the war firsthand, even if it is armed to the teeth, it will always be just a decoration.

"I wonder where those guys are now?"

Antofagaste, is the most important port in the north-central part of Chile, but also one of the military towns in the north, due to geographical constraints, most of the saltpeter mines in Chile are located in the desert area north of Antofagaste, but in the north except for the port of Iquique can barely dock cargo ships, there is no other good port, so it undertakes more than seventy percent of the saltpeter ore export transshipment tasks.

It is the important surname of Antofagaste, which has always been a strategic place in Chile, second only to the capital Santiago, and even more important than Tarcahuano in the eyes of the political axe army led by Balmaceda.

Of course, in addition to the geographical advantages, the huge local Chilean saltpeter merchants and aristocrats here are also the most important economic source of the political axe army, compared with those wealthy foreign merchants, the merchants in Chile are much shabby, but the number of victories is very large, it is precisely because the saltpeter profits are monopolized by foreign businessmen, so they are all forced to gather around the president, trying to weaken or even break the monopoly of foreign merchants by supporting Balmaceda, and share the feast brought by saltpeter!

To the noisy harbor, there was a quiet tonight, and the foreign saltpeter merchants who were usually noisy seemed to have completely disappeared from Antofagas, and most of the freighters gathered in the harbor were evacuated, leaving only a few small boats to support the scene.

The huge profits generated by the monopoly have already made both sides red-eyed, and everyone knows that civil war is inevitable, but when it does come, there are still many people who fall into deep fear.

Nobody likes war!

Those streets and alleys were full of soldiers with rifles in hand and vigilant faces, which made Antofagaste feel the chill of winter half a year in advance.

Fortunately, the war conflict is still only in the south, although the rebels control most of the Chilean warships, but after all, not all, a few lonely ships outside the port, and thousands of elite soldiers stationed here, give enough confidence to the people in Antofagaste who support the president.

After all, those congressional traitors don't have enough land forces, and even if their marines land in the north, they will face several, if not tens, times more elite land forces!

As the waves gradually rose, the sound of the waves brought this important town in northern Chile to sleep, but no one knew that in a deserted open space outside the port, more than a dozen men wearing black sharkskin jumpsuits and holding rifles, like a group of ghosts from the bottom of the sea, quietly poked their heads out from under the sea, and then quickly touched the shore.

Li Qiang squatted down, quickly peeled off the waterproof suit made of shark skin, took out a dry black suit from the waterproof bag, and after getting dressed, he tore open the waterproof suit on the gun, and then coldly glanced around.

Soon, they were surrounded by nightjars who had changed their clothes, and as for the sharkskin coats that had been changed, although it was expensive to make a set, no one liked to carry them on their backs to fight, not to mention that the grenades and explosives that had been removed from the waterproof boxes had taken up too much weight, so everyone had to put the coats in the empty boxes, put a few large stones, and sink to the bottom of the sea.

In order to form the Nighthawk, Master Li spent a lot of thought, in addition to the thick training manual at the beginning, he also specially collected some training methods in movies and novels in his mind, and compiled a book for Li Qiang for reference.

In terms of weapons, the Nighthawk is also the best, except for small things such as compasses and waist knives, all of them are Mauser rifles, and each person is equipped with a revolver, and even the grenades that have just been introduced in the escort team are specially designed for the Nighthawk at the beginning.

Although Li Qiang is already very satisfied, Young Master Li is still not very satisfied, but considering his current ability, he can only do this for the time being, after all, even if Young Master Li has a golden finger, it will need enough factories and professional workers to make those things.

Retracting his gaze from the dim city in the distance, the cold light in Li Qiang's eyes flashed. The city, a Nighthawk is not very familiar with the combat environment, but it doesn't matter, just look at the tall and short, hedgehog buildings together, you can imagine that for the Nighthawk, who regards concealment as an important training, this will be the best training ground.

After several nighthawks took over the outpost mission, Li Qiang quickly took out the map given by the Chilean liaison officer from his arms and checked it with the faint starlight.

As a harbor city, the most important thing is undoubtedly the artillery battery arranged on the seaside, the huge battery, the hideous cannon port is simply a hedgehog that has no way to go down to ordinary people, but for the specially trained Nighthawk, it is a target that cannot be moved, not to mention that the Chilean political axe army would not have thought that an elite team from China would appear under their noses.

The night is destined to be the time for the nighthawks to soar!

What's more, if you want to complete the young master's goal, create chaos, lay a good foundation for future operations, and give the Chilean Navy a little confidence, the best way is to end this battery!

"First team, left."

"Second team, right."

Li Qiang pointed to the fort that formed an angle: "According to the training, don't fall in love with war, don't forget to stuff things into the barrel, fight if you can, and withdraw if you can't." Li Qiang swept over the crowd: "Tomorrow morning outside the city." ”

"Yes." Looking at the map, the nighthawks were like a group of hungry wolves that had seen fat, licking their lips and whispering to the team, and disappeared into the thick night in two teams.
