Chapter 1091: A Premeditated Attack
Chapter 1091: Premeditated Attack (Page 1/1)
Wren is threatened by Adou and has no choice but to take on the thankless task that makes it difficult for him. Although he was very unwilling, he didn't dare to disobey him, and after taking over the task, he immediately went to arrange it. On the same day, a secret letter was sent to the Wa Kingdom along with a cargo ship laden with large amounts of smoke.
Adou was very satisfied with this, praised Ren and parted with him, and wrote a letter to Mao Wenlong, informing him that he had begun to investigate the attack on the enemy army in Qiongzhou Mansion.
Before Mao Wenlong led the army to arrive in Qiongzhou Mansion, he had already received a letter from Adou. He was relieved to learn that Adou had let Wren hide among his subordinates in the Wa Kingdom to investigate.
In fact, Mao Wenlong's attack on the Qiongzhou Mansion from the beginning was carried out by the Yiren coalition army. After all, judging from the current strength of the countries around the South China Sea, no one can quietly attack the Qiongzhou capital. And the only object worth questioning is only one, that is, the Yiren coalition army that stays in the waters of the Wa Kingdom.
They have been in the waters of the Wa Kingdom for a winter, and it is normal for them to run out of food for three months. It is inevitable to find a way to get some food to use, what makes Mao Wenlong puzzled is why the Yiren coalition army deliberately concealed his identity after grabbing the grain?
Mao Wenlong put away the letter, handed it to Haoda and ordered him to burn it, sat down and drank a sip of tea and asked Haoda, who was burning the letter in the brazier: "How long will it take to arrive at Qiongzhou Mansion?" ”
Haoda looked back at Mao Wenlong and said, "There are less than three days left." ”
Mao Wenlong silently calculated the days in his heart, and suddenly frowned and said, "According to our previous estimates, shouldn't we arrive today?" ”
Hao Da burned the letter and ordered the brazier to be taken away before he handed it back: "General soldier, because our coal fuel is not very sufficient, we can only use it sparingly as much as possible, and we cannot sail day and night." ”
Saying this, Mao Wenlong remembered that the coal that Adou had transported from Xiangjiang Island had not yet arrived. When the army set out from Weihaiwei and arrived in Guangzhou, although there were some additions, they were very few.
"Hasn't the coal from Adou arrived yet?" Mao Wenlong asked again.
"According to the news delivered in the morning, the coal ship that has departed from Xiangjiang Island is not far from us. If we stop waiting for the rest of the day, we can wait for them to arrive. "Mighty hands back.
"Then I'll stay for a day and wait for the coal to arrive." Mao Wenlong hesitated a little and ordered directly.
"Yes, Commander!" The vast man didn't say much, and after receiving the order, he bowed and retreated.
The army was forced to suspend sailing again, which still had some impact on morale, in order not to let the soldiers have time to think nonsense. Mao Wenlong felt that he should do something to keep them busy to distract them.
But the sea is as calm as a mirror right now, and there is something to do to keep the soldiers busy. This matter is indeed a bit of a headache, Mao Wenlong has been thinking about it for a long time and still has no clue. In desperation, I had to get up and leave the room and walk to the deck to blow the sea breeze to relax.
When he came to the deck, Mao Wenlong couldn't see the usual blue sky and blue sea, and when he looked up, he saw billowing black smoke in the sky. More than 200 steam engine warships, hundreds of huge chimneys are emitting black smoke at the same time, and at this moment, all the warships are stopped moving forward, and it is inevitable that such a situation will occur.
In the past, when going out to sea, there would always be a large group of seagulls following the top of the warship, but this will not mention the seagulls, even the sea under the ship is estimated that no fish dare to approach.
Mao Wenlong frowned, and a bitter expression appeared on his face. If this kind of pollution is created in the future generations, it will definitely be scolded by people all over the world.
Haoda ran over excitedly at this time, and shouted at Mao Wenlong from a distance of more than a dozen steps: "General soldiers, general soldiers, they are coming, coal is coming." ”
Looking in the direction pointed by the vast finger, Mao Wenlong could indeed faintly see some vague shadows of the sails when he looked through the sea that had been blown away by the wind.
However, before Mao Wenlong could see who was coming, the hot air balloon in charge of guarding in the sky soon heard the sound of a warning horn. Then a guard came to report that a large number of unidentified warships were coming straight to the army.
The huge smiling face suddenly froze on his face, and he had just accidentally seen a sail appear in the distance, and without thinking deeply, he thought it was a ship sent by Adou to deliver coal. Unexpectedly, the current situation was not what he thought, and he stayed by Mao Wenlong's side in embarrassment for a while, and he didn't know where to put his face.
As soon as Mao Wenlong turned around, he saw the appearance of the vast embarrassment, raised his foot and kicked him angrily, and said viciously: "What are you still embarrassed, go and give orders, and the whole army is on alert." ”
Haoda reacted at this time, quickly said yes, and then ran away like a rabbit, away from this place that made him extremely embarrassed.
"Woo woo woo ......"
The sound of the horn of vigilance suddenly sounded throughout the sea, and the hot air balloons in the air began to disperse in three formations. The hot air balloon responsible for spying on the identity of the incoming ship climbed directly into the air and slowly drifted towards those unknown warships.
Suddenly there was a police situation, and the happiest thing was Chen Jisheng, who stood on his command ship and ordered in high spirits: "Everyone listen to me, wait until the general army orders to attack, we must rush to the front." Now, all the steam engine fuel has been prepared for me, and if anyone waits to delay the warplane, Lao Tzu will cut off his dog's head. ”
If there is a general who is a warmonger, his soldiers will naturally not be sent there, and people who are not like-minded will not be able to walk together. I only heard the dozens of generals on the deck respond with a bang, and then scattered.
"Woo woo woo ......"
In the distance, there was once again the sound of three long and two short warning horns in the air, which was a unique warning of enemy attack by the Dongjiang Army Naval Division.
On the deck of the Fu ship, Mao Wenlong no longer hesitated and immediately returned to the command room. Looking out of the porthole with a telescope, I saw that the sea in the distance was densely covered with large and small warships. It's puzzling that there are no flags to prove identity. Generally, when this happens, it must be premeditated by the other party.
In the command room, most of the old generals such as Chen Qiyu were present, except for Chen Jisheng and Xu Fuzuo, two generals who were lucky enough to have the opportunity to command the ship, the rest gathered here.
Chen Qiyue put down the binoculars and said to Mao Wenlong: "Chief soldier, the comer is obviously premeditated. ”
Mao Wenlong nodded and said: "Indeed, looking at this scale, there must be at least four or five hundred warships, who still has such strength to be able to stand out in this South China Sea?" ”
