The enemy's warning method is the traditional bell ringing.
The sound of the bell is deep and deep, and can be heard for more than ten miles. It is an extremely common early warning method. Therefore, there is a saying that sounds the alarm.
However, in Xiaotong's view, if the alarm bell is sounded, it will remind the enemy to defend, which is very detrimental to one's own side.
Therefore, the person who rings the bell must be killed immediately to avoid alerting the enemy.
As Zhuge Liang said in "Twenty Chapters on the Art of War": If the enemy does not move, I will not move; if the enemy moves, I will move first.
Yes! Strike first to gain the upper hand!
After Xiaotong observed the surrounding situation and the distance from the shore, he immediately took action.
Whizzing!
Two pulley crossbow arrows were shot out sharply, hitting the target a hundred feet away.
However, they saw that the two people who wanted to sound the alarm suddenly stopped, and then fell from the sentry post.
With a bang, it fell to the ground.
This fall must be very painful.
Oh no, these two people have completely burped now, and it is impossible to feel pain anymore.
It's too late to say it, but it's soon!
Before the ship could reach the shore, Xiaotong turned over and jumped directly to the shore.
As soon as she landed, she raised her delicate hand and threw out a handful of darts, killing several sentries who came to see what was going on.
After clearing these 'thorns', the men and horses on the ship can safely land.
Just when she was in a great mood and was about to praise herself, she suddenly realized something was wrong.
Look, these killed garrison troops all had black hair, black eyes, and yellow skin. How could they look like any of the Francois?
Could it be said that all those who died were Sarawakians?
It is indeed possible.
So, here comes the problem.
How come Sarawakians are here? Also, is this place really the base of the French people?
The signs before us showed that there was an error in the information obtained by our scouts in advance.
Oh, so disappointed...
"Miss, what should we do next?"
"Don't panic yet, let me think about it roughly..."
"yes!"
After thinking for a while, Qi Xiaotong ordered: "Let's figure out the specific situation here first, and then make detailed calculations."
A certain subordinate thought for a while and asked: "Miss, what should we do with these garrison troops...?"
Xiaotong did not hesitate

He replied: "Kill them all."
Kill them all?
"But these...are Sarawakians."
Qi Xiaotong snorted coldly when he heard this and said: "Sarawak and Franji snakes and rats are in the same nest, working together, and they belong to the same line of grasshoppers. As the saying goes, the enemy's friends are also enemies. If this is the case, what can't be killed? What about?"
All right.
However, this way of doing things is also in line with the eldest lady's style.
I think back then, when she just took over Dawan, she was followed by a bloody purge. And this incident was the direct trigger for turning against Franji.
Little did Xiaotong know that this decision of his had caused enmity between Sarawak and Qiongzhou. Before, there was no direct conflict between the two parties, but it was different after today.
Of course, these are all things for later.
Back to the present.
Now that the general has given the order, we must act immediately.
There are about 800 people in the Qiong Army led by Xiaotong, but the number of the enemy is less than 300, and they are still at an absolute disadvantage in terms of equipment. It can be imagined that this killing of the Qiong Army is simply easy. Such as chopping melons and vegetables.
After half an hour...
This one-sided battle was declared to have come to a successful end.
Xiaotong, on the other hand, was there to listen to the information reports from his subordinates.
Prying out from the mouths of those who were deliberately left alive, we found that they were indeed all Sarawakians, and their mission here was to guard forage for the army.
In other words, this place is just a fodder yard for the Sarawak military.
In order to verify its authenticity, Xiaotong also ordered special people to conduct a verification.
However, they saw that after the mysterious veil of the reserves was lifted, all that was revealed were stacks of hay, and nothing else.
Sure enough, it's just a hayyard... nothing more.
Then, where is the supply base of the Francois?
You must know that the ultimate purpose of this trip is to try to destroy their military supply depot. If this fails, it will be equivalent to wasting work.
Good luck.
New clues soon emerged.
According to what the survivor revealed before he died, there was a small, fully enclosed village built on the mountain in the mountains twenty miles south of here. The leaders said that the important supplies brought by the Franco people were It's all hoarded there.
It's hard to tell the truth from hearsay news like this at the moment. It may be more true or not.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
So, why not go and find out?
Xiaotong seemed a little hesitant about this.
It is definitely not a wise move to go deep alone when the situation is still unclear. Once something unexpected goes wrong, you will have to pay a heavy price for your recklessness.
My father often said that you should never fight an uncertain battle unless you have no choice. Even if you have to send troops by surprise, you should have a way out in advance. No matter what, don't get stuck in a desperate situation.
But this time, it is a bit too dangerous. Once you go deep in, you may face the dilemma of being intercepted. Moreover, no supplies have been obtained.
It's a bit difficult.
dilemma……
At this time, a young man named Da Gou Sheng stepped forward and suggested: "Miss, before I came here, Mr. Duan repeatedly told me that safety must be the first priority when encountering problems. If the matter can be successful, we will succeed, and if it is not, we will retreat." Don’t take risks.”
This person is the best among the orphans adopted by Xiaotong. He is agile and agile, has outstanding martial arts skills, and is a good youngster with great potential.
Since this expedition, he has been following his lady's side, waiting on her front and back.
The initiative he mentioned was immediately responded to by more than half of the people. It can be seen that everyone is not willing to make dangerous moves.
However, Xiaotong had another idea.
She felt that after finally getting here, if she returned without success, wouldn't she look a little incompetent? In that case, where would you put your face?
The most important thing is that this kind of trick can only be used once. Once the secret is revealed, the Franco people will be alert and it is basically impossible to use it again.
"Well, since you have worked so hard to get here, how can you give up halfway?"
"this……"
Qi Xiaotong suddenly condensed his face and said solemnly: "During the flag ceremony before the expedition, my father once raised his arms and shouted: Huangsha wears golden armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will never be returned until it is broken! It can be seen that his old man's determination to defeat the enemy How eager are we? If so, how can we be afraid in the face of danger? Good men, where is your courage? Where is your blood?"
After she was so excited, the soldiers immediately became excited.
In their minds, Mr. Qi is a god-like existence, and what he says must be fulfilled with all his strength.
After death!
Seeing this, Qi Xiaotong nodded with satisfaction and said with a slight smile: "After my general orders, all the soldiers in the army will immediately move south to look for the small village built on the mountain!"
"yes!"
