At this time, the raiding force had arrived near Tianyun Island, waiting for the order to attack at any time.
Of course, the Sunset Dynasty soldiers on the island were not blind. When they saw a warship approaching, they immediately gathered their troops.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" The soldiers of the Sunset Dynasty immediately shouted a warning.
Then the beacon was lit again, and a large number of soldiers moved closer.
But at this time, something strange happened.
The warships of the Great Xia Dynasty actually stopped and lined up after being some distance away from the shore.
"What's going on? Why don't they dock?" asked a general from the Sunset Dynasty.
They did not see that a small group of secret guard members had secretly slipped off the boat and then swam forward.
Use the cover of the sea water to sneak in from the other direction.
This small force had quietly disembarked from the other side.
"Brothers, we must immediately find the place where the people are being held, and then send the news back."
"Any questions?" the captain asked the team members.
"No!"
After getting the exact answers from all the team members, the captain waved his hand and everyone took action immediately.
At this time, most of the troops on the island have been attracted by the warships near the coast.
Therefore, it is relatively easy for the secret guard team to conduct reconnaissance here.
The island is very large, but apart from where the residents live, the rest is a virgin forest.
The secret guard team unanimously believed that the hostages were most likely in the residential area.
The terrain of the primeval forest is relatively complex, and these Sunset Dynasty soldiers should not be able to enter easily.
The captain took a look at the map, and then led the team members to rush to one of the areas immediately.
After arriving here, I found that there was no movement and no lights.
"It shouldn't be here, let's go to the next area."
The captain didn't hesitate at all and immediately led the people to move forward.
Now, if the hostages stay in the hands of the Sunset Dynasty army for a moment longer, they will be in more danger.
Therefore, we must seize the time and rescue the people as soon as possible.
After searching three or four areas, we finally found a place where the hostages were held.
The secret guard team was at a high place and found that all the residents were gathered together in one place, surrounded by soldiers of the Sunset Dynasty.
Judging from the number of these soldiers, there were about three hundred people.
"That's not right. There are thousands of people on the island."
"But this is less than half of the people. Are there other places?" A member of the secret guard asked doubtfully.
The captain looked at the situation below and discovered this problem.
"Ignore this for now, let's save this part of the people first."
"It's easy to talk about the rest."
"Check your equipment and prepare for action!"
With an order, everyone immediately checked their equipment and then approached the hostage concentration camp.
It must be said that the Sunset Dynasty's army was quite cautious.
There are two teams of 100 people guarding the gates on the left and right sides.
The remaining people formed a patrol team and patrolled around the concentration camp.
Although the secret guard team only has a hundred people, it is more than enough to deal with these ordinary soldiers.
Suddenly, a hail of arrows pierced the night sky, and then the soldiers of the Sunset Dynasty fell down in droves.
At this time, the patrol happened to pass the gate on this side, together with the soldiers guarding here.
After one round of attacks, these people were basically dead.
Then the secret guard members quietly stepped forward and killed the survivors directly.
Nearly two hundred people were wiped out in just a quarter of an hour.
Since the gates on both sides are far apart, the soldiers on the other side don't know what's happening here.
The remaining people were easier to deal with. They were also attacked with crossbows from a distance and easily captured.
After all the soldiers were eliminated, the secret guard members rushed into the temporary concentration camp.
"Don't be afraid, folks, we are here to save you."
Facing these frightened people, the captain said loudly.
After hearing that they were the army of the Great Xia Dynasty, these people breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sir, there are still some people who are imprisoned in another place."
"My son is also inside. Please go save them."
At this time, an older man stood up, begged the captain, and kept kowtowing.
Under the leadership of this elder, everyone knelt down and began to beg.
"Don't worry, we will definitely rescue your relatives."
"Now please tell us where the remaining people are being held." The captain asked the elder.
"Ten miles to the north, there is a small village."
"The rest of the people are all locked up there."
"Because it is relatively remote, there are only more than a hundred soldiers guarding it," the elder said.
After hearing the news, the captain immediately ordered to take these people by boat and take refuge in Donghai City first.
"Sir, there is no need to go to such trouble." At this time, a young man came out and said.
"The back mountain is a primeval forest with lush vegetation where we can take refuge."
"We are all familiar with the place there. These Sunset Dynasty troops will definitely not be able to find us." The young man said.
After listening to the young man's suggestion, the secret guard captain thought it made sense.
"Okay, you quickly enter the forest, and we will rescue the remaining villagers." The captain said.
When the secret guard team was about to leave, a child about six or seven years old ran out.
"Brother, this is the amulet my father made for me. It says it can keep me safe."
"With this, you can have the strength to beat the bad guys away." The child said with a childish tone.
The captain of the secret guard knelt down and stroked the child's little head.
"Okay, brother, I promise you, I will beat the bad guys away." The captain of the secret guard said.
Then, the child personally put the amulet around the neck of the secret guard captain.
"Set off!"
Then, the captain stood up and everyone immediately rushed to the next destination.
Following the instructions of the villagers, the secret guard team came to this place.
After arriving here, all the secret guard members saw an angry scene.
I saw a soldier from the Sunset Dynasty dragging a woman out, intending to do something inappropriate.
The woman yelled and struggled violently.
There was an old couple behind, who wanted to rescue them. They must be the woman's parents, but they were forcefully pushed away by other soldiers.
At the same time, he drew his knife and pointed it at the couple.
"I'm going to kill these bastards!" A member of the secret guard couldn't hold himself back and took out his crossbow to shoot.
"Do it!" When the secret guard captain saw this scene, his eyes turned red and he immediately ordered an attack.
This loud shout shocked these Sunset Dynasty soldiers.
But before they could react, a hail of arrows swept across the sky.
