Chapter 129: Night attack (1/2)
A few days later, Sweet returned from the Land of Flowers.
When he returned, Lei Yin immediately sent someone to take him to the base chief's office.
”How's the situation over there?”
Sweet took a sip of tea: ”Mr. Major General, it's really God's help for us. After careful investigation, the secret base of the Eight Treasure Water Army is not in Huazhi.”
”Really?” Lei Yin heard this, his eyes lit up.
”Well, they are their stronghold on a small island less than 5 kilometers from the country of flowers.”
Hearing this, Lei Yin felt that the odds of winning were even better. If it was in the country of flowers, it would be equivalent to a war with the country of flowers throughout the country, which was very unfavorable for Lei Yin.
This thing is simply a godsend.
Lei Yin: ”How about their number and deployment of troops?”
Sweet: ”I touched inside them and found out about the appearance of more than 2,000 of them. The green pepper, the pillar of the Eight Treasure Water Army, almost lives in seclusion and does not care about the pirate group. What happened was Abu and Lao Cai, the grandsons of Green Pepper.”
Lei Yin groaned slightly: ”Okay, you will go to find out the specific troop allocation today, and we will prepare a night attack tonight.”
”Yes!”
If nothing happens normally, the Eight Treasures Navy will rest in their own strongholds, and they are still some distance away from the branch, and the navy will raid them, they would never have expected it. Moreover, they think their own strength is strong and they don't put anyone in their eyes.
In the afternoon, Lei Yin led twelve warships and set off in a mighty manner.
In order to deceive people and avoid arousing suspicion, Leiyin called this operation a military exercise.
Sweet probed the intelligence of the day, drove a small boat, slipped out from the Babao naval base to join Leiyin's warship.
”Report to the Major General. After investigation, there are only 4 sentries guarding the Babao Navy.”
”Very good.” Lei Yin said, ordering the soldiers to drop anchor and rest on the spot.
In the evening, Lei Yin led the warship quietly into the port of the Babao Naval Base. Looking towards the island, there is only a little bit of light.
When the island was less than 2 kilometers away, in order not to disturb the pirates on the island, Leiyin sent a few navies with good water and skill to swim across the sea to kill the four sentries.
Pirates are pirates after all, and the discipline is far less strict than that of the navy. The sentry is quickly assassinated by the navy, and Leiyin's army will kill the island.
The sentinels have all been resolved, and the pirates are unprepared. Leiyin splits the soldiers into three groups and launches a surprise attack on the middle road while the enemy is not prepared.
Many pirates were asleep. When they woke up, they didn't even have time to take up arms to resist. They were already dead under the bullets and swords of the Navy.
To say that there is a person who is quite alert, he heard the abnormal noise outside, immediately turned off the knife in his hand, and hurried into battle.
This man wears a wavy collared cloak, has short brown hair, and holds a ringed sword with a vicious face. Leading a few people, he rushed into the navy formation, rushing left and right to kill almost as if into no one.
Lei Yin was killing the pirates in the middle, and Lao Cai was attacking on the right.
A sergeant went to report to Lei Yin immediately: ”Mr. Major General, the right can't stand it anymore.”
Lei Yin: ”Is the cone of green pepper coming?”
Sergeant: ”No, it's a fierce-looking guy with a sword.”
