Chapter 136: Catching Chickens in the Cage
On the night of August 5, the fleet headed south to the sea outside the Jilong to meet with the reconnaissance ship that was the first to reconnaissance and surveillance.
The reconnaissance ship disguised as a fishing boat brought the information that the Japanese pirates were ready to go out to sea to rob.
The typhoon season has passed, and the Japanese pirates who have been holding on for a summer have long been unable to wait to go out to burn, kill and loot.
Ma Rulong made a quick decision and ordered to launch the "Catching Chicken in a Cage" tonight!
As soon as the order was conveyed, the ships immediately became busy. The commanders held pre-war meetings on the deck and issued combat tasks to the police officers. Police cadres mobilized pre-war mobilization. The chef prepared a sumptuous dinner for the officers and soldiers. The medical staff moved the first aid equipment out of the warehouse and unpacked it for use.
After the meeting, the policemen wrote suicide notes as usual, packed their personal belongings and put them in a copper box. The tradition of the coast guard was to bury the dead comrades in the sea, so once they were killed, the copper box with their names and numbers written by the police department of the security area would be sent back to their homes so that their families could stand in a tomb.
If there is no one at home and no ancestral tombs can be found, they will be sent to the martyrs' cemetery next to the Venerable Sanatorium on Xishan Island, Suzhou for funeral.
The Chinese take the funeral seriously after death, so before every battle, everyone will carefully clean up the box.
Many officers and soldiers would ask their comrades to use razors to shave their heads. There is no similar requirement in the regulations, and only stipulate that officers and soldiers must wash their hair frequently to ensure that there are no lice or odor on their heads.
Director Tong's pervert will suddenly appear beside you, sniffing your head with his nose. As long as he feels it smells, then wait to be injected into the spirit.
Many people are forced to do so, and think it is too troublesome to wash their hair all day, so they simply shave their heads and become monks. It is convenient!
After heading south, it was very tide and hot all day, and more people were shaving their heads. It was cooler!
The boat doctor also praised the bald head, believing that this is not only beneficial to personal hygiene, but also convenient for treatment if injured on the battlefield.
So more and more people shaved their heads, nearly half of them...
The most outstanding one is the Marines, who all shaved their heads from top to bottom.
And today when I landed on the island, the Marines are about to play the leading role again!
As the pioneer of landing on the island, Ximen Qing took the magpie's nest without hesitation and borrowed the large conference room of the host ship 206.
In the conference room, the police taught to distribute special combat equipment to the members of the investigation squadron, short swords, short crossbows, short guns, grenades, copper helmets, leather armor, and ropes...
The team members were dressed neatly one by one and were fully armed, and heard the squadron leader excitedly slapped the map on the wall and screamed:
"Brothers, this time we are going south to fight, our Marines are about to shake again! Looking back, who dares to laugh at us as a boat passenger for a meal!"
"Hahaha..." The team members burst into laughter. When they were in Japan, they had been fighting on the sea surface, and the security area strictly prohibited them from going ashore. The Japanese Daimai navy was really bad and could not attack the nearest. Therefore, the Marines could only fire rockets at most to help transport shells, and they could only watch others shoot cannons for the rest of the time. Naturally, they could not raise their heads.
But since the war to the south, the situation has been completely different. The Marines have to be used almost every battle, although this is the second battle... but in the previous battle, and this time, they have to take the lead, which has already made the people proud.
"Okay, okay, stop laughing." Police teacher Wu Song poured cold water and said: "When you are going to fight, be serious, arrogant soldiers will be defeated!"
"Ahem, Teacher Wu is right, don't laugh." Ximen Qing felt tired and lost his interest in bragging. He knocked on the map and said, "Tell me the serious matter!"
The team members became serious, too.
"According to the latest information, the Japanese pirates entrenched in the chicken coop have gathered more than 2,000 people, and more than 3,000 people captured by them all live in Keelung Port." Ximen Qing introduced on the map:
"Keilung Port is surrounded by mountains on three sides and is trumpet-shaped. At the entrance, there are Dajilong Island, Tangpan Island and Zhongshan Zai Island three islands cross the gateway, forming a natural breakwater, and it is an excellent military port. Half of the Japanese pirates live on the largest, the nearest bigjilong Island to the shore, and the other half live on the shore through the narrow fjord. Their boats are parked on the docks in the fjord. The narrowest ends of the fjord are less than 100 meters, which is very unfavorable to the large fleet's combat."
The team members listened very seriously, which was a message related to their life and death.
"What's even more difficult is that there are forts on both sides of the fjord, one at the eastern end of the Dajilong Island and the other at the west side of the shore, guarding the fjord from both ends."
After Ximen Qing finished speaking, the team members made a surprise sound. Did the Japanese have guns? And could they set up a gun?
"It should be that they bought it from the Red-haired Ghost in the past two years, and they bought a lot. There are ten long snake cannons in just one east fort! If this cannon is not destroyed, our fleet will likely suffer heavy losses when it breaks through the narrow bay entrance." He said in a deep voice: "So the task of our reconnaissance squadron is to touch the Dajilong Island at night and take off this cannon!"
It was indeed the protagonist! The team members whispered together excitedly.
"This mission is very dangerous!" Ximen Qing knocked on the wallboard again, and said with a serious expression: "The barracks of the Japanese pirates on the island are next to this fort. Once we take action, we may be trapped in a heavy siege. Although at night, the barracks are on the south side of the mountain and cannot expect artillery fire support from the sea. But the captain will lead the main force of the brigade to support us from land. So we not only have to capture the fort, but also hold on until the main force of the brigade wipes out the enemy troops on the island!"
After a pause, he looked around the two hundred team members and said, "As for another fort and the Japanese pirates on the shore, the Second Brigade is responsible for it. Do we need to worry about it, do you understand?"
"I understand!" the team members responded in unison.
On the roster of the town Japanese.
Since Lin Feng knew that Mr. Zhao was going to beat a chicken cage, he was so curious that he would be terrified of being scratched by the cat.
As soon as she saw that the soldiers on the ship were in a tense state of combat readiness in the afternoon, she knew that the war was about to come. So she urged to find Zhao Hao, hoping to find out more about it from him.
Mei Nan naturally did as he did immediately, but saw that Mr. Zhao was still lazy and had no pre-war state. He even had the mood to invite Mei Nan for dinner, and then he gave up after teasing a witch.
Seeing that he didn't go back, Zhao Hao was about to get Mei Nan into bed... Uh, to be precise, Mei Nan was about to get Zhao Hao to get her into bed.
Lin Feng had no choice but to give up on her plan to find out the news and signaled that she could say goodbye.
Mei Nan was still a little reluctant to leave when she left...
After returning, she regretfully said to Lin Feng: "What a pity... I mean, it's a pity that I didn't ask anything useful."
"Yeah." Lin Feng nodded and said depressedly: "Do you understand now? Mr. Zhao will not be blinded by women if he can achieve what he has today. He is still guarding against us, so he is not at all..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard the rhythmic creaking sound coming from above his head...
It was the bed of the brown trampoline. It was constantly being oppressed and released, and the sound made.
And upstairs is Mr. Zhao’s room.
The sound is so familiar that it sounds for an hour almost every night, and sometimes more.
"I didn't say anything..." Lin Feng was speechless.
"Maybe, Mr. Zhao is exercising." Mei Nanqiang smiled and said, "Didn't he say what he does in bed every night... push-ups?"
"You're still pushing a cart." Lin Feng hadn't seen anything before? She rolled her eyes and said to herself that she didn't know what the benefits of having sex before the battle? Do you have to learn this too?
That night, the fleet ordered light control. All warships only lit two red ship lights at the tail. With the moonlight in the sky and the northeast wind blowing from afar, they followed the water-guiding boat toward Jilong Bay slowly.
The fleet stopped near the Xiaojilong Island, seven miles outside the Dajilong Island. Police officers from each ship turned the winch and lowered the traffic boats at their tails...that is, the sampan. On each traffic boat, there were ten Marines.
Ximen Qing's squadron took twenty small boats and rowed on the oars toward Sheliao Island, seven miles away.
The closer they get, the slower the team rows so that the sound of rowing and the sound of tides slamming the shore.
Almost half an hour later, I brushed the asphalt and black traffic boat and approached the northernmost end of Dajilong Island.
Ximen Qing looked at the crescent moon in the sky and just entered the fourth day of the sky. At this moment, there was no one on the island quietly, but it was scary. Because the coast in front of him was full of strange rocks, like a devil with claws in the night, it also made a whimpering ghost laugh, which made people creepy.
However, the geography knowledge learned by the police academy told Ximen Qing that this was not a supernatural force. It was because the big Jilong Island was hit by the northeast monsoon all year round and the erosion of the waves, which caused this sea erosion platform with strange rocks and stones. As for the ghost laughter, it was also emitted by the monsoon when it passed through the stone forest...
Science saved him and his team members from fear and even felt superior.
Ximen Qing calmed down and made a gesture, and the team members checked their equipment again. Then he turned over and got off the boat first. The team members also followed him, supported the boat with their hands, and slowly penetrated into the water and stepped on it. Everyone was carrying a sampan together, and the people and the boats all went to the rocky coast together.
A quarter of an hour later, the investigator who came out returned and confirmed that there were no ambush along the way, and there were no secret sentries. Ximen Qingcai led his team to rush west silently along the coastline.
The Dajilong Island is very small, with the longest distance between the east and the east. The place where the reconnaissance squadron landed was only 600 meters away from the fort.
With a cup of tea, the Marines had already touched a row of raised rocks seventy meters away from the fort.
Ximen Qing narrowed his eyes and carefully observed the fort at a high place. The lights meant that someone was standing guard. But this time was the most sleepy time and was on the island. How could he be vigilant?
He waved without hesitation, and several team leaders came over, Ximen Qing pointed to the highlights, and each person assigned one.
After the command, the team leaders immediately led their team members to crawl towards the fort under the cover of the grass.
Ximen Qing followed up with the rest of the team members later, and everyone's short guns were loaded and loaded, and they were in a state of being activated. The short crossbow was also stringed, one left and one right in his hand, ready to provide cover at any time.
Chapter completed!
