Chapter 541: Ambush on all sides, a complete victory
After not waiting for three days, on the evening of the second day, Qin Huaiyu actually visited the door again and brought a news that shocked Jia Huan.
The red-haired thieves will come to attack Haizhou City tomorrow night, and they seem to know that Great Xia is on guard against them, but they don't know where to focus their defenses.
Therefore, this time, they planned not to stay in Haizhou for longer, but to loot and then directly set fire to Haizhou City and leave.
After learning the news, Jia Huan couldn't help but be shocked, and secretly scolded the intelligence system of the imperial court in his heart.
These guys are all waste snacks that eat people and don't do anything.
They couldn't even find out such important information.
Thanks to the fact that he brought Miaoyu this time and met Qin Huaiyu, he got the news from him in advance.
If not, in an unguarded situation, he really let the red-haired thief rush into Haizhou City and set a fire.
Even if they can be left behind afterwards, it will definitely be a shame for Great Xia, and even more so for their Red Flame Army.
Thinking of this, Jia Huan couldn't help but clasp his fists at Qin Huaiyu and said, "Brother Qin, the news you brought is very important, this time, I owe you a favor." ”
"By the way, have you found out how many people they will send for this invasion?"
Now that he learned the news in advance, Jia Huan was sure that he would win the coefficient of the red-haired thief who invaded in the future.
It's just that you know yourself and your opponent, and you won't be defeated in a hundred battles.
Naturally, the more detailed the message, the better.
Qin Haiyu couldn't help but shake his head and said, "We haven't heard the specific number of people, but I heard that this time the red-haired thieves don't seem to have any troops. ”
Hearing this, Jia Huan nodded, with a thoughtful look on his face.
After a while, Jia Huan couldn't help asking, "I wonder if Brother Qin is interested in participating in this battle?" ”
Qin Huaiyu clenched his fists and said: "Master Hou has orders, Qin has no disrespect." ”
Jia Huan was quite satisfied with Qin Huaiyu's reaction.
In fact, the reason why Jia Huan invited Qin Huaiyu to participate this time was completely to repay the favor and let Qin Huaiyu also get a piece of the pie.
Jia Huan couldn't help but say: "In this way, the frontal battle will naturally come from our Red Flame Army." ”
"And Brother Qin can take people and Haitian Island together to intercept the red-haired thief's ship."
"The ships will be divided equally between you and Haitian Island."
Yes, in this battle, Jia Huan not only wants to annihilate the red-haired thieves who come to attack.
And leave all their warships behind.
The red-haired thieves came to attack Haizhou City, and the main force would inevitably all go ashore.
There will certainly not be too many people left to guard the ship.
Originally, Jia Huan was going to leave all these ships to Haitian Island.
The Red Flame Army is responsible for the battle, Haitian Island is responsible for making a fortune, and the tacit cooperation between the two sides can be described as a win-win situation.
Only this time, thanks to Qin Huaiyu for sending information.
Jia Huan reciprocated the favor, and only then was he ready to give half of the victory to Qin Huaiyu.
And after Jia Huan finished speaking, Qin Huaiyu immediately understood the meaning of Jia Huan's words.
Qin Huaiyu couldn't help but say: "Thank you Lord Hou for the reward, but we don't want the boat." It is enough to be able to help Hou Ye a little bit, and do his best. ”
After listening to Qin Huaiyu's words, Jia Huan appreciated him more and more.
Be able to resist the temptation not to be blinded by immediate interests, but to choose the future.
This young man, promising.
Next, Jia Huan directly set up a banquet in the Taibai Restaurant, and then called Liu Xianglian to accompany him.
At the banquet, Qin Huaiyu confirmed his guess.
It turned out that the commander of the escort team of Haitian Island was actually a subordinate of the champion Hou.
It turned out that the master behind Haitian Island was no longer the Xue family, but was replaced by the champion Hou.
Yes, Qin Huaiyu actually knew that Haitian Island belonged to the Xue family for a long time.
It's just that he didn't find out who the new owner was later.
Now I finally know that it is the champion Hou.
Champion Hou is already extremely rich, and now he is secretly cultivating his own strength, and his plan is not small.
How lucky is it to be able to take the boat of Champion Hou?
This further and again confirmed the correctness of his previous abandonment of half of the Red Thief's battleship.
Give up the little immediate interests, as long as you can follow the champion Hou steadily, there will be a brighter future.
Halfway through the banquet, Jia Huan excused himself and left.
Regarding the cooperation between Haitian Island and Qin Huaiyu, Jia Huan had already informed Liu Xianglian in advance.
As for how the two of them will cooperate this time, and the details of how they will cooperate in the future, it will be left to the two to talk and negotiate.
As the boss behind the scenes, Jia Huan is not good at ending up in person.
After going back, Jia Huan called the deputy general Zhou Tong and ordered someone to get the map.
Then he told Zhou Tong the news that the red-haired thieves were about to attack Haizhou City tomorrow night, and did not hide the source from Zhou Tong.
After hearing the news, Zhou Tong suddenly became excited.
He first scolded the intelligence system of the imperial court, and then, together with Jia Huan, he surrounded the map with great interest to determine the landing point of the red-haired thief.
There are several places around Haizhou City that can land.
However, if they want to attack Haizhou City, they will have to go through a ramp.
Jia Huan and Zhou Tong unanimously decided to set up an ambush at the ramp.
Of course, if you want to annihilate all the invading red-haired thieves, you can't just have one ambush.
Next, the two of them began to analyze again, if the red-haired thief was defeated, there was a high probability of fleeing direction.
Returning the same way is just one of their options.
At night, when the lights are dark, it is estimated that more than half of the deserters will scatter and flee.
And Jia Huan and Zhou Tong are not even willing to let go of these red-haired ghosts who have fled.
After some discussion, the two finally determined the arming situation.
At the end, Zhou Tong suddenly mentioned: "By the way, do you want to send a small group of men and horses to rob the other party's ships?" ”
"Although the emperor has allocated us a shipyard for the Red Flame Army, it will take at least half a year to a year to build a ship."
"If we can snatch the ship of the red-haired thief this time, our Red Flame Army will definitely be like a tiger."
Hearing Zhou Tong's words, Jia Huan couldn't help but be frightened.
What does this guy want to do?
He hurriedly said: "According to our arming situation, how many more people can be freed up?" ”
Zhou Tong silently calculated for a moment in his heart and said: "The enemy is expected to be wide, because we are not sure how many people and horses will come from the red-haired ghost this time, so it is calculated according to 20,000 people." ”
"Therefore, even if we occupy the right place at the right time, we need enough people to ensure that the vast majority of them are left."
"As a result, we don't have a lot of people to free up, about 14,500 people."
Hearing this number, Jia Huan said decisively: "In that case, then you can't send this team out." ”
"To avoid accidents on the scene, this team must act as a support team, detect the situation, and be able to support the past at any time."
"In the end, it is best to be able to capture the ships of the red-haired thieves, and even if they can't, ensure victory in the land battle as the first priority."
In fact, why didn't Zhou Tong think of this? He was also hesitant to send the team.
Seeing Jia Huan's opposition, Zhou Tong decisively did not squeak.
And Jia Huan saw that Zhou Tong had no objection, and he couldn't help but quietly breathe a sigh of relief.
What are you kidding, if the Red Flame Army sends a team over, how can the ship of the red-haired thief be captured on Haitian Island?
Next, the two conducted another review to make sure that nothing was wrong, and then they gave up.
On the afternoon of the second day, the Red Flame Army sent scouts to continuously inquire about the news.
Then the Red Flame Army quietly dispatched and ambushed each according to the pre-assigned position.
At this time, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.
The encirclement has been laid, just waiting for the prey to drill the set.
However, at this time, it is not really certain whether the red-haired thief will actually come.
If the news given by Qin Huaiyu was wrong, the red-haired thief did not come.
Then this time, they will have to do useless work.
At this moment, Ni Er quietly came to Jia Huan's side and reported: "Childe, you have found the target and are moving closer to this side." ”
Ni Er is the target discovered by Hai Dongqing.
Haidongqing is a migratory bird, and when they spend the winter, they usually come to the coastline to forage for food on the beach.
Therefore, after coming to Haizhou, Hai Dongqing did not have anything to adapt to.
And since Hai Dongqing found the traces of the red-haired ghost, Jia Huan was completely relieved.
Little by little, time passed.
The Red Flame Army waited patiently, and soon, the whole army had eaten dinner.
They were afraid of being discovered by the red-haired ghosts, so they didn't make a fire to cook.
Meals are all prepared in advance.
It is a self-heating pot made in advance by the Red Flame Arms Head Battalion.
Well, naturally, it can't be compared with the self-heating hot pot self-heating rice and so on in later generations.
But it does heat itself.
The package is made of quicklime, which is automatically heated with water.
After dinner, except for the scouts, the other Red Flame Army soldiers began to lie down in the ambush and rest.
Now they are also veterans of many wars, and they are very calm in the face of the coming war.
The sky was getting darker, and the fishing lanterns on the sea in the distance made the sea sparkle with stars.
And Jia Huan and the others are still waiting patiently.
At this time, the red-haired ghost had actually arrived at the docks.
However, they did not launch a sneak attack immediately, but waited, it was still early, and they would not start to act until it was darker.
Both the prey and the hunter are waiting patiently, and they are all confident.
It was getting darker, and the red-haired thief finally decided to attack.
They've done this a lot of times, and they've loved this thrilling game.
They will take advantage of the darkness of the night to fight their way into coastal towns one by one.
Slaughter the men inside, and then take away their most beautiful and energetic maidens for their pleasure.
They enjoy the blood of killing, are infatuated with the richness of maidens, are keen to taste the fine wines of various countries, and enjoy the delicacies of various places.
Plunder, bringing them a wonderful feeling that has never been seen before.
Each of them wears light leather boots, which make no noise and are light even when walking on the reef.
They walked silently, their shotguns ready to fire at any moment.
The handle of the scimitar is also kept within reach.
Closer, they are getting closer and closer to this beautiful coastal city in the East.
Faintly, they could already see the walls of Haizhou City.
After crossing the ramp in front of them, a few more miles, they would be able to reach Haizhou City.
However, the next moment, around the ramp, countless torches suddenly lit up.
The next moment, the torches were dropped from the ramp.
Their eyes lit up.
From extremely dark to extremely bright, the eyes of these red-haired thieves narrowed.
Then they heard a terrible sound of breaking through the air. At the same time, there is also the sound of crackling in the accompaniment.
The red-haired thief is no stranger to these two sounds, the sound of arrows breaking through the air and the sound of muskets firing, respectively.
However, these attacks were directed at them, and they became living targets.
The red-haired thieves are very densely positioned, which makes the Red Flame Army in ambush basically not need to aim.
It is enough to shoot an arrow or shoot a gun in a crowded area.
In such a situation, a missed shot is an accident.
The red-haired thief fell in pieces like straw harvested by a harvester.
In just a few moments, they suffered heavy casualties.
It only took a moment for them to collapse.
Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles.
The problem is that they simply don't know how many of their enemies there really are.
For a moment they could not even discern the exact location of their enemy.
If you want to organize an effective counterattack, you can't start.
What's more, they are pirates, they are sensual and indulgent in pleasure.
Each of them is rich.
They plunder everywhere, just enjoying the pleasure of killing and the satisfaction of not working for nothing.
They have no faith at all.
In the past, they all relied on the sharpness of their weapons, coupled with sudden sneak attacks, to be invincible and indulge in killing.
And now, when the killing happens to themselves.
Their rout was faster than that of ordinary armies.
The red-haired thief was defeated, and Zhou Tong took the lead and led the Red Flame Army to chase down.
What happened next was still a feast of killing.
Only this time, the object has been transformed.
Those who were killed became red-haired thieves.
Facts have proved that Jia Huan and Zhou Tong's homework was not in vain.
What they laid in advance happened to be a net against the red-haired thief.
Let these red-haired thieves, no matter which direction they flee from, no matter where they flee, they will be intercepted and will be hit head-on.
The battle continued, and the painful, hysterical cries of the red-haired thieves echoed through the night sky.
Over time, these sounds become quieter and quieter until they are gradually eliminated.
It wasn't until dawn that the Red Flame Army began to fully clean up the battlefield.
In this battle, the Red Flame Army won a complete victory, and almost wiped out the red-haired thieves who came to attack.
But there is also bad news.
That is, the deputy general Zhou Tong was seriously injured and his life was in danger.
And he was the only one injured in the entire Red Flame Army.
Zhou Tong took the lead and chased the red-haired thief for a whole night, and there was nothing to do here.
It wasn't until after dawn that Zhou Tong was chasing and killing the small leader of a red-haired thief when he was shot in the abdomen by a red-haired thief hiding in the shadows.
And in this day and age, a shot in the abdomen almost means that there is no cure.
The red-haired thief who secretly shot the black gun died a miserable death, and finally became a pile of rotten meat, barely visible in human form. (End of chapter)
