Jia Cong was also a little puzzled. Jeju Island was quite powerful, and it was impossible for the Japanese pirates not to know about it. The North Sea Fleet of the Light Water Monkeys was not something they could deal with. Jia Cong even doubted that there was something wrong with the minds of these Japanese pirates.
Dare to gnaw on such a hard bone. However, you will know this matter just by asking, so you don’t have to guess by yourself.
Turning to look at Li Biao, he asked: "Li Biao, has that guy been recruited? Why did they want to sneak attack on our Jeju Island." Li Biao cupped his hands and said, "Sir, that guy has been recruited. It's very satisfying. Even the death penalty They all were recruited without moving. This man's name is Wild Dog Jiro, and he is the leader of one group of Japanese pirates. The Japanese pirates who attacked us this time were three groups of Japanese pirates who joined together. The reason why they attacked our Jeju Island was because they were targeting us. The warships and artillery came here, hoping to take the warship and artillery by surprise." Water Monkey said angrily: "These bastards really have a good plan. They knew they were not our opponents, so they chose to carry out a sneak attack. It's so insidious." Jia Cong said: "War is about using all possible means. No matter what method you use, as long as you can win. There is nothing wrong with them doing this. There is still a certain chance of success, and Even if they met us, if it were another force, they would definitely succeed." Water Monkey thought about it for a while, and a chill ran down his back.
If the soldiers on the shore hadn't discovered them and opened fire directly, and if they got to the military port and boarded the warship, it would have been all over.
His own fleet might be destroyed by others. It’s time to pay close attention to this warning aspect.
"Sir, my subordinates will definitely pay attention to patrols and early warning." Jia Cong nodded and said: "Your navy is the eyes of the island. Patrols are the top priority and should not be taken lightly. In addition, we must also do a good job in intelligence work in the surrounding sea areas.”
"I have noted it down." Water Monkey responded with his hands raised. Li Biao continued: "Sir, that Wild Dog Jiro is quite aware of current affairs, and he also brought out the situation on the Japanese island. According to what he said, there are more than a dozen Japanese pirate forces on the entire Japanese island, and they are all attacking us. Artillery is very interested. Although the three of them are jointly taking action this time, there are several forces keeping an eye on us. It is very likely that they will also take action against us, so please make plans in advance."
"This..." When several people heard this, they couldn't help but be a little surprised. They didn't expect that someone else was trying to plot against them. This was simply a crime of harboring a treasure.
It seems that I have to cheer up this time. Water Monkey said angrily: "These people, how dare they?" Zhang Dakui said: "We have learned from the past, it is still unknown whether the people behind will dare to come, but there is nothing wrong with strengthening patrols. "Wang Cai said: "With the current power on the island, we are not afraid of them. The only thing we are worried about is that they will all unite. When tens of thousands of people attack together, we will not have much chance of winning." Jia Cong pondered for a moment and spoke. Said: "If there are really more than a dozen groups of Japanese pirates, there will be at least 40,000 to 50,000 people. If they attack us together, we will not be unable to deal with it, but it will be difficult to deal with it. If they carry out sneak attacks again, then we will be even more passive. Yes." After hearing Jia Cong's words, several people's faces didn't look good.
Although there are elite soldiers here, the number is too small after all. Everyone understands the principle that ants kill an elephant to death.
Wangcai said with some worry: "Sir, what should we do? If we don't recruit a group of new soldiers, they will be used to some extent. Even if fighting is not possible, patrolling and defense can still be done." Jia Cong pondered for a long time and shook his head. He shook his head and said: "There is no need to increase the number of troops for the time being. The new soldiers do not have much combat power and will not be of much use. More than 10,000 soldiers on Jeju Island are enough. We are going to follow the route of elite troops and there is no need to use random weapons to fill the numbers."
"But, right now..." Before Wangcai could finish speaking, he was interrupted directly by Jia Cong.
"There is nothing wrong with it. Your mission is to develop Jeju Island, make it more and more prosperous, and become our real logistics base. The immigration work must be accelerated, and various developments must not be stopped. As for the war, let's leave it to Just give it to Commander Zhang and Commander Shui. If there really is a fight, we have no chance of winning. As long as we use the superiority of the navy, they will not be able to get into Jeju Island." After speaking, Jia Cong looked at Water Monkey.
The water monkey stood up and saluted: "Don't worry, sir. I have the confidence to stop them. As long as they dare to appear in the nearby waters, those Japanese pirates will be buried under the sea." Jia Cong said: "I don't doubt this. The only worry is The only thing is that they will attack again and catch us off guard. We can only be a thief for a thousand days, but there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days." Several people looked at Jia Cong in confusion, not knowing what he meant by this.
Li Biao said: "Sir, do you want to take the initiative to attack and put the initiative in our own hands?" As soon as he said this, Water Monkey and Zhang Dakui's eyes lit up and they began to make calculations in their minds.
Even though Jeju Island's navy is invincible, it still has to fight on land to completely wipe out the Japanese pirates.
It would be too difficult to rely solely on the troops on the island to fight deep into enemy territory, with completely unfamiliar geography, favorable weather, location, and people, and a quick victory.
Unless the advanced firearms can be used this time, the result will naturally be different. Thinking of this, the two people's hearts became hot again.
Jia Cong glanced at Li Biao approvingly. He had been with him for a long time and he was indeed better than those two guys.
"Yes, now that they have begun to attract our attention, there is no need for us to be polite. Strike first to gain the upper hand, and strike later to suffer disaster. We will use our fleet advantage to attack them in separate parts, with lightning speed. , quickly destroy those Japanese pirates." Zhang Dakui and Water Monkey both had expressions on their faces. They were both leaders, and they could only achieve merit by fighting.
In this case, it is also a good thing for them, that is, they can train real elite soldiers and accumulate some merits.
Looking at these behaviors of his master, he does not look like an honest official. No matter what happens in the future, it will be a good thing for you to accumulate more credit.
Zhang Dakui cupped his hands and said: "Your Excellency, this idea is very good. The other party must not have thought that we would take the initiative. This is indeed a good opportunity to eliminate them. At the same time, it also solves the dilemma on our island. Your Excellency, when should we take action?" Water Monkey said: "Sir, if we really make a decision, we must take action as soon as possible to catch them off guard and prevent them from being wary." Jia Cong nodded after hearing this. He knew the importance of speed in fighting.
It's just that the soldiers on the island have just experienced a big battle and still need to take a rest. In this case, we will send troops to the Japanese island in three days to kill the Japanese pirates.
I didn't expect those Japanese pirates, but I didn't expect that I would come directly to the door. It wouldn't make much difference if I did it one day earlier or one day later.
Thinking of this, Jia Cong said: "Then let's set it in three days. We will send troops to Japan in three days. Let the soldiers rest for three days. By then, a thousand marines and a thousand navy will be left to guard Jeju Island. Others Everyone is accompanying us. In addition, only a few of us know about this matter. We should keep it a secret for the time being and do not inform the officers any further. We will inform the soldiers when we set off. This is a military order and cannot be disobeyed."
"Yes, I obey." Upon hearing this, several people bowed and saluted. After thinking about it, Jia Cong continued: "Since we are going to send troops, we must find out the situation on the Japanese island. Li Biao, you, Commander Zhang and Commander Shui, go find that wild dog Jiro. Let's find out. He should know the situation on the island better than we do." The three men stood up again and saluted: "Yes, sir, I obey." Three days later, the Jeju Island army set off.
With 2,000 infantry, 1,000 cavalry, 5,000 navy, plus Jia Cong's 200 personal soldiers, and more than 100 large ships, they only attacked the Japanese island in the east.
Jia Cong stood on the bow of the Jeju, looking in the direction of the Japanese island in the distance. Standing next to him was Lin Daiyu in armor.
This time, Lin Daiyu was very happy to be able to follow Jia Cong and fight with him as she wished.
However, after listening to Jia Cong's introduction to the situation of the Japanese country along the way, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but feel a little worried. Since brother Cong knew how powerful the Japanese country was, why would he send troops to them?
"Brother Cong, are you confident that we will send troops to the Japanese island this time to deal with the Japanese pirates?" Jia Cong withdrew his gaze, looked at Lin Daiyu, smiled and said: "Why, is Sister Lin afraid? If she is really afraid, , I can have someone send you back right now." Lin Daiyu
"Humph" he said: "Humph, I'm not afraid. I have nothing to be afraid of when I'm with you. At worst, I'll just go to hell with you. What's the big deal?" After hearing what she said, Jia Cong was also a little moved in his heart.
Being able to live and die together, share weal and woe, it is simple to say, but how many people in this world can really do it?
If you can get a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for? Jia Cong stretched out a finger, pressed it on her mouth, and said with a smile: "I don't want to die. I haven't even entered the bridal chamber with you yet, so if I die like this, it's not a bad thing to die. I'll still be with you." Flowers and candles in the bridal chamber will lead to a long life." Hearing what Jia Cong said, Lin Daiyu felt happy, rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'm talking to you about business, and you are talking about these nonsense, there is really nothing you can do about it." Jia Cong said. She said with a smile: "For me, entering the bridal chamber with you is a serious matter, everything else is trivial." Lin Daiyu looked at no one around, then smiled and said: "Okay, stop talking, you haven't answered yet What's my problem? Tell me quickly." Jia Cong then suppressed his smile and said seriously: "Sister Lin, this Japanese country is indeed very big. It is dozens or hundreds of times larger than our current Jeju Island. It is indeed It is not something we can deal with now. However, at this time, the Japanese country is in the middle of a war, and all the forces are fighting with each other, almost turning into a mess. What we have to deal with this time is the Kyushu Island in the southwest of the Japanese country. Kyushu Island is the closest to us. The entire island is occupied by more than a dozen Japanese pirate forces. It has become a base camp for Japanese pirates. They plunder some surrounding coastal areas. Our country, Chu Jiangnan, is rich and has become the target of these Japanese pirates. The Japanese pirates who attacked us a few days ago were three of the forces. According to the captured leader, these Japanese pirate forces all coveted our artillery and wanted to rob us. Instead of letting them unite to deal with us, It is better for us to take the initiative, attack them separately, and eliminate hidden dangers in advance. The navy and firearms are our greatest support. No one is our opponent on this sea. Even on land, with the help of firearms, they are not Our opponent." Lin Daiyu nodded after hearing this.
She had already seen the power of firearms when facing the sneak attack at Xuzhou Camp. Jia Cong only used 200 men to defeat the attack of nearly 6,000 men. It is simply unbelievable to say this.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Lin Daiyu wouldn't believe anything she said. She is full of confidence in Jia Cong's ability. No wonder he has made great achievements in Liaodong.
Now dealing with these mere Japanese pirates is naturally a piece of cake. She admired Jia Cong's courage immensely.
I am even more confident about this trip. This time, more than 8,000 people were dispatched on Jeju Island. With the help of firearms and the personal command of Brother Cong, it was difficult not to win.
"Well, Brother Cong is confident, so I feel relieved. My sister has seen the power of those firearms." Jia Cong said with a smile: "Don't worry, Sister Lin. Brother will not do anything that is not sure. We This time the main purpose is to destroy the pirate forces. If these people are not eliminated, they will also be a threat to our Jeju Island."
"Well, my sister supports brother Cong." The next day, a huge piece of land appeared in the field of vision, surrounded by islands in front.
With the information of Wild Dog Jiro and knowing the distribution of the Japanese pirates, he bypassed the small islands and went straight to the more powerful Japanese pirates.
Although there are some Japanese pirates scattered on these islands, the number is much smaller, with a maximum of two to three hundred people.
These Japanese pirates do not pose a threat to Jeju Island for the time being. After finishing cleaning up those large groups of Japanese pirates, I will pick them up on the way back.
Soon, the Jeju Island fleet approached the largest port on Kyushu Island, which was also occupied by the largest Japanese pirate force.
There are six thousand people in this force. The leader of the Japanese pirates is Toshio Ono. He is cruel, cruel and murderous. Many forces are unwilling to offend him, let alone deal with him.
I heard that wild dog Jiro said that this person is also a powerful warrior, and his skills are also very powerful. Looking at the Japanese island getting closer and closer, Jia Cong's eyes flashed, then disappeared again, and sighed slightly.
This operation was still a little too hasty, and my own manpower was slightly insufficient. It was destined that I would not be able to carry out the entire Japanese island in one pot. I still feel a little regretful about this.
At this time, Li Biao stepped forward, raised his hands and said: "Sir, Commander Shui, please give me instructions. Our fleet is about to enter the opponent's sight. Do you want to speed up?" Jia Cong put down the telescope in his hand and said to Li Biao: " Inform the fleet to speed up and be ready to attack at any time."
