Volume 1 Greed and Hatred Chapter 274 Seize the island by surprise

This is the second time Li Rui has fought against the Night Shadow Gate, but compared to the first time, the opponent's strength is obviously not at the same level.

The corners of Li Rui's mouth showed a hint of contempt, and he said coldly, "Is the Night Shadow Gate just this bit of combat power? That killer was quite capable last time, and you're embarrassed to attack the camp with your little strength? It's like hitting a stone with an egg, and giving you a taste of fear!"

After speaking, Li Rui's figure shuttled between these killers like a ghost, and every time he raised his hand, his head would inevitably fall to the ground, and the soldiers of the garrison camp behind him were all stunned, and they were speechless by Li Rui's killing methods.

"Good evening, audience friends, the following is a piece of news, at about ten o'clock last night, the camp area of the East County garrison was attacked by unknown armed men, and a brave soldier annihilated all the intruders with one man and one sword, and no one ......survived."

Soon, the news that Li Rui single-handedly killed the Night Shadow Gate became popular on the Internet, and this was exactly what Li Rui specially arranged, he just wanted to let the mastermind behind him know that he would fight him to the end, as long as he Li Rui was there, any conspiracy would not succeed.

And there is another advantage of doing this, that is, it hinders Ma Xinglong's "lava action", Nanhua Pharmaceutical is standing, and it is an impact on Longyan Pharmaceutical, although Chen Yao will suffer a loss for the time being, but in the long run, it is Ma Xinglong's interests that are actually damaged.

The matter of the Night Shadow Gate came to an end, but Li Rui was in no hurry to return to Tongxin City.

Because now that the game between him and Ma Xinglong has officially begun, he will not return to Tongxin City for the time being, and let him dry for a few days to see how he makes a move. And Ma Xinglong's side, after seeing Li Rui's move, he didn't reply for a long time, and he would also have some doubts, which just gave him a little more trouble.

Taking advantage of this gap, Li Rui decided to go to Erjiangshan Island to have a look.

However, Erheshan Island is lonely overseas, and it is definitely not possible to go alone, so he thought of Li Dongjiang. Although he is now Li Baochang's son-in-law, he has no real power, if he has the gold medal of Li Baochang's son-in-law, it will be much easier for him to do things.

Li Dongjiang, like his sister Li Nanyan, grew up in Li Baochang's military camp since he was a child, and when he became an adult, he was also entrusted with important responsibilities and held important positions in the army, becoming Li Baochang's right and left hand. The elder sister Li Nanyan served as the commander of the garrison camp of Dongjun, and he was appointed as the commander of the coastal defense battalion.

As mentioned earlier, the Celestial Empire emphasized literature and suppressed military force, and the local armed mountains were numerous, and they were independent. Although the Fourth Empire had a powerful forbidden army and the four major field armies, it also weakened local rule to a certain extent, especially in the establishment of troops, and the local government was very strong and difficult to manage in a unified manner.

The Celestial Empire has four major branches of the army, the navy, and the air and space forces, and the army is the most important weapon of the country, which is controlled by the head of state alone, while the rest of the navy is slightly embarrassed. The navy has three fleets, Beiji, Ningyuan, and Qiongya, and although their strength is not weak, they have always been in a marginal position. In particular, because the navy is extremely dependent on port bases, and the land is the sphere of influence of the garrison troops in various places, this makes the navy always bow down in front of the garrison troops in various places, and dare not cause friction, lest it be taken into the nest and driven into the sea and unable to go ashore.

As a result, an interesting phenomenon has been created, that is, the navy, in addition to surface and underwater forces, has almost no coastal defense forces, and there are no marines, and this part of the vacant capacity is borne by the garrison forces in various coastal areas. Therefore, the Haizhou garrison is equipped with a coastal defense battalion, which not only has a high-combat combat strength of the Marine Corps, but also has a small fleet.

As soon as Li Rui looked for Li Dongjiang, Li Dongjiang knew that there must be no good thing, and as soon as he heard that Li Rui was going to Erheshan Island, he shook his head and said that he would not help anything. However, Li Rui had already calculated his fate, and threatened him that if he didn't agree, he would have to go to Li Nanyan, and as soon as Li Dongjiang heard Li Nanyan's name, it was too late to hide, so he immediately agreed.

"Alas, we have to talk about it first, just go and see, don't mess around, that island is full of bandits, there are hundreds of people, guns and cannons, stabbed a hornet's nest, my dad can't spare me!"

"Got it, why are you so ink, how can you lead troops to fight like this?"

When Li Dongjiang heard this, he was instantly unhappy and retorted, "Why won't I lead troops to fight? I call it cautious, and don't get into unnecessary trouble in extraordinary times."

Li Rui didn't follow either

He argued, and the two got on a speedboat and prepared to go to sea.

Although this is a speedboat, the tonnage is also more than 200 tons, and it is designed with a high-speed wave-piercing double-body shape, and its cross-section has obvious radar signal reduction characteristics. The maximum speed is 50 knots, the crew is 12 people, but if you do not load missiles, you can take a platoon.

The main purpose of going to sea this time was to go to the island, so Li Dongjiang ordered people to unload the missiles and only bring a platoon of soldiers with them.

The speedboat sailed through the waves and soon arrived near Erheshan Island. Li Rui observed through the telescope and found that the bandits on the island had built a large number of fortifications, and there were commanding heights on all sides that could be covered by firepower, and it was not easy to storm the island.

But then he found that the number of bandits on the entire island was pitiful. Obviously inconsistent with the hundreds of people mentioned in the previous intelligence, there were only about two dozen people at most, all basking on the beach, and there were many scantily clad women next to them, as if they were on vacation.

"How can there be a woman?"

Li Rui handed the telescope to Li Dongjiang.

After Li Dongjiang observed, he said, "This gang of bandits will sneak back to Haizhou every once in a while, in addition to purchasing living materials on the island, they are looking for women."

"You mean, these are ***?"

"Well, not really."

"These bandits still know how to enjoy themselves?"

"Who's to say it isn't, that's something I haven't been able to understand." Li Dongjiang said: "Erheshan Island is far away from the land, and it is not on the main shipping lane, these bandits occupy this place, first, they can't rob houses, and second, they can't rob passing ships, I really don't understand why they are left here, and where do they get the money to support their expenses."

"Yes, weapons and materials don't cost anything, they still have the heart to engage women, there must be something we don't know about this."

"But this matter has been pending for many years, and if you want to find out, you can only go to the island."

"Without further ado, we'll be on the island today."

Li Dongjiang's eyes widened, "Today? We have one boat, one platoon, and it's too risky to go to the island!"

"Fool, after this village, there is no such shop, you don't look at the few of them now, as long as we quietly touch it, the bandit leader is controlled unconsciously, and everything is solved?"

When Li Dongjiang heard Li Rui's words, he also felt that there was some reason, after all, the island's defense was very weak now, and it was indeed an opportunity for them.

"I have observed, on the beach to the east, there are only seven or eight bandits, all basking in the sun, the two of us dived over first, silently settled the battle, and then the speedboat rushed to land on the beach, and together we controlled the remaining bandits."

Li Dongjiang nodded and agreed.

So, the two immediately put on diving suits, dived to the beach, and took advantage of the bandits' inattention to touch the shore.

"Look, there's a log cabin over there." Li Dongjiang pointed not far behind the bandits.

"I guess it's a place for them to rest, don't alarm them yet, let's go in and have a look."

The two infiltrated the hut and found it to be a settlement with a large amount of supplies and plenty of fresh water.

"Here, pour this in."

Li Rui took out a small bottle, handed it to Li Dongjiang, and then pointed to the water tank where the fresh water was stored.

Li Dongjiang immediately understood, and said softly, "You are really poisonous."

Li Rui's bottle contained a colorless and odorless poison, just one milligram, enough to kill an adult, and the amount of this bottle was enough for the bandits on the entire island to reimburse.

"This is what I specially prepared for these bandits, if I hadn't done some homework, do you think I would rush to the island?"

Li Dongjiang gave a thumbs up and said with a smile, "Admire, admire."

The two of them were agile, and quickly touched Erheshan Island, and put poison on most of the freshwater tanks on the island, leaving only a small amount for their own use when the time came.

Because Li Rui attacked suddenly this time, it was the bandits' unpreparedness, and with Li Rui's special poison, the bandits on the island used the highly toxic water source without realizing it, and that's it

Li Rui did not spend a single soldier and directly conquered Erheshan Island.

Looking at the accomplices who died suddenly, the psychological defense line of the remaining bandits who had not drunk water completely collapsed, and they thought that God was going to punish them, so they knelt down and kowtowed to the sky.

Li Rui and Li Dongjiang appeared at this time, looking at the bandits crying wolf, not to mention how proud they were.

"You, are you human or ghost?!"

A bandit asked in a trembling voice.

"Nonsense, of course it's people!" Li Dongjiang shouted loudly: "Don't howl, if you don't want to die, let Lao Tzu squat here!"

Li Rui walked up to the bandit and asked, "What's your name?"

The man didn't dare to look directly into Li Rui's eyes, and said hesitantly, "Villain, Wu, Wu Zhaoxie."

"What's the job?"

Wu Zhaoxie replied tremblingly, "Small, squad leader."

"Squad leader? How many of them are under your control?"

Wu Zhaoxie nodded and said, "A good man spares his life, a good man spares his life, I don't dare anymore, I don't dare again!"

"Have you ever killed someone?"

Wu Zhaoxie glanced at Li Rui, and instantly understood what he meant, if he told the truth at this time, where would there be a way to live, he hurriedly said, "No, no, I haven't killed anyone, I was forced."

Li Rui naturally didn't believe his words, but he didn't want to kill him, the number of bandits on the island was obviously wrong, today they were successful in the sneak attack, but the bandits will still kill back another day, they are numerous, and they are by no means a force that can be underestimated.

Li Rui smiled and asked quietly, "Why is this just a few of you, where did the others go?"

Wu Zhaoxie's eyes rolled, and he hurriedly replied, "Them, they have gone out to deliver supplies, and it is estimated that they will not be able to come back until dark."
