Horse on the World

Chapter 734 Wind Rises from Lianshan Island (4)

Zheng Zhiqiang was originally a street wanderer. Because of his elder brother, his family was relatively well-to-do at the time, and he had studied for a few years, but his temper was too unrestrained. Let him spend his days wandering, and later, he got angry and simply threw him into the army to join the army, hoping that he could change his temperament.

But this person is actually very smart. In the army, he finally discovered his own value. The melting pot of the army also allowed him to mature quickly. In addition, he had read books and could read, which was very rare in the Dingzhou Army at that time. At the beginning of Li Qing's founding of the army, not many of his generals could read. It would be strange not to start!

Of course, he also has an elder brother who is a general. With this elder brother's support, Zheng Zhiqiang was assigned to the newly established Navy Marine Corps. Complete, only the newly established Marine Corps will have the opportunity to be promoted quickly.

Sure enough, after joining the Marine Corps, Zheng Zhiqiang's talent was fully demonstrated, and he participated in all important battles, almost a year's worth of promotion, and now he is General Dingyuan.In this, besides his own talent and ability, there are also people from above who take care of him. Many times, even if you have talent, if your superiors don't give you the opportunity to display your talents, you will only be a pearl in the dust.

With his own ability and someone above him, Zheng Zhiqiang's rapid rise is of course understandable.

Zheng Zhiqiang was very smart. When he saw the blood-stained pigeons, saw the several cut ropes brought back from the peak by his subordinate Hong Ansheng, and reported the traces they saw, he understood that there was already a wave of enemies fleeing to the island.

Quickly sent people to go around the cliff in a small boat and found the small boat hidden in the cave. According to the size of the boat and the number of islands, it was inferred that the number of people who dived to the island was about 200.This made Zheng Zhiqiang break out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, it has only been started for two or three days, and it is also fortunate that it was discovered early, otherwise the opponent would infiltrate hundreds of people through this loophole at a time, and it would only take more than ten times, and there would be an army of thousands of people on his back. Ambush, but I still don't know it.It is impossible for a small team of 200 people to fight out openly, but what if it is 2000 people?Zheng Zhiqiang shuddered, he was afraid that Lianshan Dang would fall.

"First set up a secret post on the cliff. Be careful not to let the people who sneak in find out that we have set up a secret post. Prevent the opponent from sending people to sneak in again." Zheng Zhiqiang gritted his teeth.

"Grandma, play special operations with us. I don't know special operations. Dingzhou is the ancestor of my father. You are learning to walk in Handan, and we will make you draw a tiger so that you can't be a dog." Zheng Zhiqiang sneered.

"Hong Ansheng!" The captain who went to investigate earlier stepped in front of Zheng Zhiqiang.

"Get a group of experienced old brothers over here." Zheng Zhiqiang ordered, "I will crush these mice to death one by one!" Zheng Zhiqiang loosened, closed, loosened, and closed again, as if It's like holding something in the middle.

At the meeting held the night before, the news that about [-] enemy troops had infiltrated on Lianshan Island caused an uproar in the meeting place. The military generals were worried about where and when they would launch the attack, and what consequences would it cause?But the supply team is worried that they will attack residential areas and cause casualties to innocent people. Lianshan Island was originally a military zone, and [-] to [-]% of the people on the island are soldiers, and most of the rest are working here. Craftsmen, in fact, they also belong to the military establishment. After welcoming the king of Zhou and tens of thousands of Zhou Dynasty survivors, the originally spacious Lianshan Island suddenly became crowded. Except for the peak area, which is not suitable for living, all places They are all full of people. The demarcated residential areas of Zhou Dynasty survivors have not been prepared to let them move in. They just temporarily set up a batch of simple houses and barely squeezed people in. If these infiltrating enemies put The consequences of being on fire would be unimaginable. There are still quite a few old and weak women and children!
For these speculations, Zheng Zhiqiang dismissed them. The opponent sneaked into 200 people and there was no movement. Then, they must have come with a goal. Only at this time will it have the effect of surprise soldiers, sneak attack on the defense line, even if they succeed for a while, if they do not form an excellent cooperation with the enemy on the sea, it will not work at all, and may cause a short-term attack on the defense line. Panic, but the absolute disadvantage in numbers will wipe them out in the blink of an eye.

Kill those civilians?It is even more impossible, even if he kills all the people, as long as the army does not suffer losses, they will still get nothing.

So, their purpose of coming here may be to assassinate the main generals, such as themselves?Zheng Zhiqiang smiled slightly. Killing himself would indeed plunge the island into temporary chaos, but the Dingzhou Army had its own set of emergency measures to deal with the death of the main general. This was also one of the main ideas of Li Qing's army. Killed and the whole army collapsed.

No matter how possible, it is the island's reserves. Lianshan Island has such a strong confidence to defend the island. The biggest reliance is sufficient material reserves. If it is only about food, even if there are more than tens of thousands of survivors of the Zhou Dynasty now, it is enough Support for several months, and a few months later, most of the Dingzhou Navy has already returned.Zheng Zhiqiang never thought that Deng Peng might fail in Heishuiyang, because he lost control of Heishuiyang due to a big defeat.

The biggest possibility is the reserve of materials, Zheng Zhiqiang has already affirmed this in his heart.But like all armies, the material storage points have always been heavily guarded, and the material reserve defense on Lianshan Island is far better than other places. Lianshan Island is far away from the mainland, and it is not easy to transport materials. The island is bound to collapse, with so many people, they can't live by fishing for fish and shrimp.

On Lianshan Island, all the material reserves were dug deep from the military fortress area close to the mountain, and dug into the mountainside. A layer of waterproof special soil is applied on the outside, and all the materials transported into the cave are covered with moisture-proof oilcloth, so that the food will not be moldy due to moisture, and the weapons and weapons will not be wet and rust.Opponents want to destroy the material reserves on Lianshan Island. They are not talking about nonsense, unless they kill all the soldiers in the fortress area of ​​​​the material storage points, it is possible to enter.

There are two such storage points on Lianshan Island, one for food and one for ordnance.

Zheng Zhiqiang's finger slowly slid across the map. Since the enemy is paying attention to this, he may be able to take advantage of it.Zheng Zhiqiang flicked his fingers back and forth on the map, and thought over the topography of Lianshan Island several times in his mind, a smile slowly appeared on his face.

"Hong Ansheng, come here!" Zheng Zhiqiang called out.

"You take the old brothers, you must first find this group of people. I estimate that this group of people should be scattered and lurking by now. After you find some of them, you will start to persecute them and let them know that they have shown their tracks. Their time The days are running out, and there is very little time left for them to complete their tasks, because at any time, we who find their traces will start a big search. Lianshan Island has only a few tens of square kilometers in total. Where can they fly?" Zheng Zhiqiang said with a smile, of course, a large-scale search is impossible, just as Zheng Zhiqiang said, Lianshan Island is indeed only a few tens of kilometers away from Fangyuan, but it is not something he can round up with his current manpower .What's more, now that the enemy's army is overwhelming and they are attacking every day, mobilizing troops anywhere may cause disastrous consequences. He can only hunt and kill small teams.But there is one biggest problem in this way, how can we wipe out the opponents, even if there are only a few people left, it may turn into a big problem at a certain moment, so the best way is to gather them together and clean them up. Kill them together neatly, and you don't need to use too many troops.

The opponent's goal is their own reserves, so of course it is this object that can lure them together.After knocking on the table and sending Hong Ansheng away, Zheng Zhiqiang immediately summoned the personnel in charge of the supply team. Zheng Zhiqiang was not worried at all about whether Hong Ansheng could complete the task. As an old man in the Marine Corps, he was not as good as Wang Qi in special operations. , not as good as Sun Zewu, but he is definitely one of the best, definitely not comparable to bastards like the Southern Army Navy.

Somewhere in Lianshan Island, there suddenly appeared a place that seemed to be heavily guarded. The personnel of the luggage team used half a day to place a batch of food and ordnance in a naturally formed cave, and then used it again. The sacks were filled with fine soil, pretending to be grain, and piled in.

Around the cave, there are clear posts and secret posts, and the guards are heavily guarded.Large and small trolleys began to come in and out, transported in and out every day, a busy scene.

On the other side, Hong Ansheng led more than 100 veterans with extremely rich experience in the Marine Corps, sneaked into the mountains, started from the top of the mountain, tracked the opponent's traces all the way down the mountain, and deduced the possible location of the opponent.

This group of people was not wearing armor either, they were dressed in grass-green tight clothes, their faces were smeared with grass juice, and some branches and vines were inserted or wrapped around their bodies. Weeds, or a shrub.

A group of three or five people searched slowly in the woods. For special operations, you should be fast and slow. Hong Ansheng is not in a hurry. The enemy is a novice at first sight. There are still many traces exposed. The place where the opponent buried the armor has been discovered by them, and the debris left by the opponent when he ate dry food, the traces left by defecating and urinating, the bark rubbed off when climbing trees, lying on the grass Among them, the direction of the fallen grass and trees all shows the direction of the opponent's progress.

"It's really two!" Hong Ansheng sneered.At this moment, Hong Ansheng even thought that General Zheng was making a fuss over a molehill, and he could easily clean them up without so much trouble.
