Chapter 185 Repeating the same trick

Chapter 185 Repeating the same trick

Shen Zhi took out the drone, skillfully flew it into the sky, and began to observe the terrain of Haizhou. The terrain of Haizhou is very special. It can be said to be a small island, surrounded by the sea, with only two steep mountains in the west, towering into the clouds. The mountain walls are all huge rocks, with no grass growing, which looks particularly desolate. There is only a narrow mountain road between the two mountains leading to the outside world, stretching for dozens of miles, so narrow that it can barely allow two carriages to pass side by side.

The 200,000 Japanese pirates landed on the island with the help of the dozens of large ships docked on the shore. Speaking of these large ships, Shen Zhi's heart moved, thinking of finding an opportunity to go on board to take a look, maybe he could find some clues.

The drone circled in the air again and again, Shen Zhi stared at the images sent back, and suddenly, she vaguely saw a large group of people approaching outside the island. Her heart tightened, realizing that the situation was not good, she quickly put away the drone and hurried back to the tent.

At this time, everyone in the tent was still arguing fiercely and no one paid attention to the situation outside.

Shen Zhi rushed into the tent and shouted, "Something's happening!" Then she handed the image sent back by the drone to Zhan Xiao. When everyone heard this, they gathered around curiously to watch.

What's this new thing? Hey, isn't this Haizhou? Isn't that tall Haizhou Bodhisattva Temple? Every year, many believers from outside the island come here to burn incense and pray for blessings. The camera turns and the situation outside the island is revealed. A dense army is approaching, and judging by their clothing, they are definitely Japanese pirates.

The dense army was approaching, and there was no end in sight. The clothes and attire of these soldiers showed that they were Japanese pirates. Everyone's face changed drastically. They didn't expect the Japanese pirates to come so quickly!

"It seems that they may take advantage of the night to climb onto the island from the mountain path." The deputy general said with a frown.

"Most of the Japanese pirates came to our Great Xiao Dynasty across the ocean, so they are usually stationed in the prefectures near the sea. In addition to our 200,000 troops here, there are 500,000 troops in Nanzhou, which is adjacent to Haizhou. But now it has only been three days, and it is estimated that only the 500,000 troops in Nanzhou can come to support. We can defeat them one by one and eliminate them one by one." Zhan Xiao's complexion is much better than before, but his body is still weak. However, Shen Zhi doesn't think so, because she knows that Lingquan water has the effect of washing marrow and strengthening bones, and believes that Zhan Xiao will soon have amazing changes.

"How about we try the same old trick again?" Shen Zhi interjected at the right time.

"Old tricks again? How do you mean old tricks again?" Everyone was puzzled.

Shen Zhi stood up and replayed the previous video. He said firmly, "The terrain of our Haizhou is very unique, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Now the only way for these pirates to get on the island is this narrow mountain road. They can't climb up the cliffs on both sides. Only the old islanders who are familiar with the terrain know the shortcut to the top of the mountain. So, we might as well follow the strategy of last time and attack the pirates with fire."

Zhan Xiao's eyes flashed with excitement after hearing this, and he continued, "Then, can we send someone familiar with the terrain to lead the archers to the top of the mountain to ambush and cut off the pirates' retreat?"

Shen Zhi nodded in agreement, "Act immediately! At the current speed, the Japanese pirates will enter the mountain road in less than two hours."

Zhan Xiao quickly gave orders, "Cao Ding, you lead two thousand archers to the left mountain and ambush; Lu Zheng, you lead two thousand archers to the right mountain and ambush."

"Yes, sir!" the two men answered in unison, and then led the soldiers away.

At the same time, Shen Zhi led the group of people who operated the drone a few days ago to the top of the mountain, but they chose to go around from the other side, which was the direction approaching the island.

Soon, the Japanese army came towards the mountain path in a mighty force. Then they entered the entrance of the mountain path and walked further in. They walked very fast, as if they wanted to pass through this narrow path as quickly as possible.

As the day progressed, dark gradually fell, and the people lying in ambush on the mountain became increasingly nervous. It seemed as if there was no end in sight for this group of people, as they continued to pour into the mountain path.

The mountain road is not straight, there are many sharp turns, so the people behind often cannot see what is happening in front. Shen Zhi saw through the drone that most of the Japanese troops had entered the mountain road, and he could just wait for all the Japanese troops to enter before closing the door and beating the dog.

After waiting for another half an hour, Shen Zhi saw that the Japanese army had all entered the narrow road. The Zhan family army, who had been ambushed at the entrance of the mountain foot, quietly appeared and followed Shen Zhi's instructions. They used wooden sticks and the principle of fulcrum to move the huge rocks next to them to the entrance of the mountain road to block their retreat.

At this time, twenty spraying drones came into play. They flew from both sides to the middle, and as the drones flew, gasoline was sprayed down densely.

"It's raining," a Japanese soldier said in broken Chinese. Haizhou had been suffering from drought for several months, and the Japanese pirates were also very miserable, so they were very excited when they saw the rain.

"No, it's not raining. What's that smell? It's greasy."

Shen Zhi took out the flare he had prepared in advance and fired it into the sky. The archers immediately took action after seeing the flare. An arrow with a fire seed shot towards the narrow path.

"It's not rain, it's kerosene, run, there's an ambush." ​​A Japanese soldier cried out, but he was shot by an arrow before he could run. In an instant, flames rose up, and in a few breaths it turned into a fireball, and gradually turned into a sea of ​​fire.

For a while, the valley was filled with cries and cries for help, but no one showed any mercy. After all, the crimes committed by the Japanese pirates against the people of the Great Xiao Dynasty were horrific, and burning them alive at this moment was simply too easy for them.

However, not all the pirates were engulfed by the flames. Those who were not on fire ran forward in panic, but were shocked to find that the entrance to the island had been blocked by huge rocks, so they had to retreat in panic. However, the entrance they had just entered was also blocked.

The Japanese pirates were in a desperate situation and desperately ran to both sides. Some of them were pushed to the ground, their faces showing pain and fear, and their bodies were unable to move under the shove of the crowd. The people around them tried to lend a hand, but were blocked by the surging crowd and could only watch them struggling in the predicament.

The crowd's pushing force was so strong that the pirates crowded together, leaving almost no gaps. The collision of bodies brought unbearable pain. Some people were squeezed to the point of having difficulty breathing, their faces flushed, and their eyes full of the desire to survive.

At this moment, the drones are still working, adding fuel to the fire for the Japanese pirates below.

Shen Zhi looked at the burning little figures on the mountain path at the foot of the mountain, jumping around on the ground trying to put out the fire on their bodies, until they gradually curled up and fell to the ground and couldn't get up.
