On the night of the first month of February in the fifteenth year of Xiantong, it was dark and moonless.

Nearly half of the time has passed, but the sky and the earth are quiet at night. The 1,08 pirates in the east sea of Zhendong and the 200 people of Li Jing have already boarded eighteen boats, the sails have been raised, and the 2,000 men and horses are full, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

Li Jing stood on the deck of Whitebeard's ship, looking up at the dark night sky, and had maintained this position for a long time. The four masters of Zhendonghai are also like Li Jing, looking up at the starry sky.

There was no rain, not even a little wind. If it weren't the first day of the new year, Li Jing was sure that it would be a starry sky and a moonlit night.

Rubbing his somewhat sore neck, Li Jing beckoned to Yuan Hong, and asked with a gloomy face, "Are you really sure that there will be rain tonight, and it will be a torrential rain?" ”

Yuan Hong was the onmyoji recruited by Li Jing when he recruited craftsmen from the homeless people, and he specially watched the weather for the sea fleet. According to himself, he had the true inheritance of his old Taoist master, but he also said that he was driven out of the fleet because he did not have accurate forecasts twice in a row. However, after Li Jing accepted him, he specially asked him to bring a few people to observe the celestial phenomena and forecast the weather, but the result was basically eight or nine out of ten, and this guy's forecast was still very accurate. This time he went to sea, Li Jing specially brought him with him.

Three days ago, Levi took two scouts to sneak into Cat Island at night, and came back to report after a night of inquiry. The layout of the island has been figured out. If it's a rainy night raid. Then it's not impossible to take Cat Island. After getting this confirmation, Li Jing and the others immediately began to arrange preparations for the raid on Cat Island.

When everything was ready, the only thing missing was a rainstorm night. Li Jing found Yuan Hong, and Yuan Hong clearly told him that in three days, there would be a heavy rainstorm. Looking at his sworn appearance, Li Jing wondered if these guys had been living too comfortably and eating too well on Salmon Island recently. And it became a little pompous. It's that the weather forecasts of later generations often make mistakes for the weather three days later, and Yuan Hong didn't bring any tools, so he could get the forecast of heavy rain three days later by watching the celestial phenomena with the naked eye?

But although he was suspicious, after all, everything was ready, and Li Jing had to wait in disbelief.

Three days, in a blink of an eye, passed. The weather in these three days is getting better and better day by day, three days ago it was cloudy, but these three days are sunny and sunny. Not even the wind was up, and not even a cloud could be seen in the sky.

Right now. The soldiers and horses are ready, and the battleships are ready.

But the heavy rain that should have happened did not appear!

Yuan Hong was stared at by Li Jing, and his forehead couldn't help sweating. He raised his eyes and looked at the sky again, then his fingers were in his sleeves, and he nodded affirmatively, and said to Li Jing: "According to the mantra and experience passed on to me by my master, it will indeed rain today, and it will be a rare heavy rainstorm." ”

"But why can't I see the slightest sign of rain on this day?" Yellowbeard frowned and said, but all the pirates who died at sea basically knew how to watch the sky and stargaz at the slightest star, but he really didn't see any signs of rain tonight.

Yuan Hong carefully explained: "Today's celestial phenomenon belongs to a kind of vision that is rarely seen in ordinary times. The calmer it is now, the more calm it is before the storm, and the more violent the storm will be. ”

As he was talking, Li Jing's cloak suddenly swelled and made a loud noise.

"The wind is blowing!" Someone shouted loudly in the distance, and the impatient pirates who were already sitting in the cabin rushed to the deck, shouting into the night sky.

Li Jing, Whitebeard and the others couldn't help but glance at each other, and their eyes finally showed long-lost joy.

"Anchor, sail!" Whitebeard didn't wear his gorgeous armor full of silver and white today, but changed into a set of pitch-black leather armor. The sword in his hand was also replaced by a horizontal knife and a black round shield.

Huge sails rose high on the masts and fluttered in the howling wind.

Yuan Hong tilted his head, his eyes slightly closed, and his nose kept inhaling air. With an increasingly excited expression on his face, he said loudly: "I smell the humidity in the air, this is the prelude to the rainstorm!" Heavy rain is coming, hurry up! ”

The captains of the ship shouted loudly as the pirates steered the ship to set sail, and the wind grew stronger and stronger, and even the people who blew it were unsteady on the bow of the ship. But the stronger the wind blew, the more excited the four masters of Zhendonghai became. They don't have to hold on to the boat at all, and they can be firmly attached to the deck like an iron sucker.

In the sea breeze, the four white-bearded brothers even untied the wine bag on their waists and gulped down the Wuliangye brought by Li Jing. Fortunately, he had already seen the amount of alcohol these people had, and Li Jing didn't have to worry about them being too drunk to command when the battle started for a while.

The sea breeze howled, and the battleships fired in unison.

The fleet had traveled more than halfway, and when it was less than five miles away from Cat Island, the strong winds finally brought heavy rain. At first, it was just like beans falling like a sparse wind on the bow of the ship and on everyone's faces, and gradually, the rain became more and more dense, hitting the people's bodies and causing pain, until the last was like a downpour.

The pirates on the deck fled into the pod to hide, but Li Jing and Whitebeard laughed wildly in the torrential rain. With such a heavy rainstorm, the defenses on Cat Island will inevitably weaken, and their vigilance will definitely be minimized. A rainy night like this is a great time to really attack.

The rain became heavier and heavier, and the rain poured on the deck, splashing high mist. The entire heaven and earth seemed to be the Milky Way falling for nine days, and there was water everywhere. The visual range is so low that even the rest of the fleet can no longer be seen.

Fortunately, they have been crisscrossing the sea for decades, and the famous pirate family is also in the body, no matter how bad the weather is, they have also seen it, although the rainstorm is heavy, but they also have a set of methods for sailing in the rain, keeping the entire fleet together and moving forward.

Just when Li Jing felt that his whole body was about to be stunned by the wind and waves, Yellowbeard walked up to his side and shouted loudly into his ear: "We have arrived, Cat Island is a hundred steps ahead of us." Now, we need to send a detachment ashore and clear a safe area for the rest of our brothers to land. ”

Li Jing nodded violently, the rain had already drenched him, but Li Jing didn't care anymore, tonight will be a battle in the rainstorm, this rain can only be regarded as a warm-up. "Okay, I'll take the scout team with you first!"

Eighteen large boats, one by one the small boats were lowered, floating on the surface of the sea, as if they would be swept away by a storm at any moment. Li Jing left behind the 100 men and horses commanded by Wang Chong to command the Xiao family, and he took Li Wei, Wang Shi, Liu Shouqian, and Zhang Chengzong with a few hundred scouts, and the 100 pirates selected by Yellowbeard to ride in 20 small boats, braving the torrential rain and strong winds, rowing towards the shore in the rain and fog.

At a distance of more than 100 steps, Li Jing felt that they had been rowing on the sea for half a century. When the dinghy in front of him suddenly stopped, Li Jing realized that he had reached the shore. The dinghy slammed into the shore of the island with inertia, and the people on the boat suddenly stumbled.

The torrential rain poured, and the landing point chosen by Li Jing and others was the north shore of the map that Li Wei brought back three days ago, which was not as wide as the south bank, which was suitable for loading and unloading goods of a large fleet at the same time, and after the north bank went ashore, there was a small patch of dense trees, and the terrain was uneven. However, it is precisely because of this that the north shore side is also the weakest side of the island's shore defense.

Li Jing carried a shield in one hand and a knife in the other, and the yellow beard had already gone ashore first, and his people were fanning out in all directions. In this formation, once encountering enemy patrols and guards, it can be solved as soon as possible, and if it encounters enemy ambushes, the scattered skirmishers can also minimize losses.

The 100-man scouts were temporarily divided into a three-person squad, a nine-man squadron, a 50-person brigade, and a hundred-person squad by Li Jing.

"Zijun, immediately follow me to the surrounding three hundred steps, and all the island guards and others you encounter will be killed!" Li Jing's horizontal knife was already unsheathed, and he said loudly to Li Wei.

"Let's go!" Li Jing waved his hand, and in the darkness, a faint light at the castle in the center of the stormy island was the goal, guiding everyone to move forward in the dark.

Yellowbeard was responsible for guarding the shore and protecting Whitebeard's fleet from landing quickly.

Things went more smoothly than expected, and due to the sudden storm, the guards patrolling the island took shelter from the rain in several forts. Li Jing and the others searched the range of 300 steps, but they didn't encounter anyone.

Whitebeard's movements were faster, perhaps twenty years of hatred were hidden in his heart, and tonight it was finally time to settle the matter, leaving only two hundred of the remaining 1,800 men to guard the fleet and be responsible for sealing off the entire island and preventing a single island from escaping.

Whitebeard soon joined Li Jing, a white-haired and white-bearded old pirate who was nearly sixty years old, holding Li Jing's hand and shouting loudly in his ear: "If I die in battle, please help me complete this revenge." As long as you can help us break through Cat Island and level that fortress, all the brothers in my town will follow you with a blood oath in the future. His voice was full of sincerity and expectation.

Li Jing's face was full of rain, and he smiled bitterly: "If you are all dead, why do you care about these behind you?" ”

"I am the Wisdom of the Dao, even if I go to hell, I will still look at everything here and watch you. Only when the great revenge is avenged, can I look under the Nine Springs. ”

"I'm sure you'll be able to take revenge with your own hands!" Li Jing stretched out his hand and shook the whitebeard heavily, "Everyone will die one day, but I believe that it will never be today, and it will not be here." Big boss, let's do it! (To be continued.) )
