But how could this be hidden from Yu Huatian, who had the East Factory as his information channel?
Through his secret operation, he even found out the remnants of the previous royal family and the landing place of the pirates, and informed Zhao Jiguang.
What Yu Huatian has to deal with now is the more than 3,000 white-robed disciples in Haizhou.
If it were any other time, he really didn't know what to do.
Even if one has high martial arts skills.
But facing so many people, there is nothing we can do.
However, Wang Jin has mobilized the elites of the East Factory from all over the country to come to help. Although there are only more than a thousand people, it is actually enough.
Because Yu Huatian had not only the people from the East Factory, but also the White Clothes Gate and even the yamen runners of the Haizhou government. Therefore, capturing or even killing those 3,000 people was not a problem at all.
But this kind of thing cannot be publicized. If the remnants of the previous royal family get wind of it, all will be lost.
He had to keep in touch with the navy at all times and determine the specific day when the pirates would land.
In this way, time passed by little by little.
The entire Haizhou seems very calm on the surface, but in fact, there is a sense of impending storm.
The people only knew that the government had temporarily banned fishing, but they had no idea why.
This is not just the case in Haizhou, but in all coastal areas.
The navy was deploying troops in various places, and it looked very lively.
But if some people can find it.
Haizhou, as the origin of the country, has increasingly weaker defensive capabilities.
But these things don't seem to have much to do with the people. It is the same as it usually is now.
And it was on this day.
In the endless sea.
Dozens of tall ships were docked next to a small island.
There were teams of people walking back and forth, hundreds of them in total. These people were also wearing armor. Although it was not as exquisite as that of the navy soldiers, it was not much worse.
As for the center of the island, there is a huge reef. On the reef, three or five people are standing side by side, seemingly talking about something.
The one in the middle looks to be in his forties, with a tall and straight figure, wearing a gorgeous robe and having an extraordinary temperament.
The people around him were both old and young, but they all respected the man in the Chinese robe.
"Your Highness!" At this moment, a guard with a sword suddenly came over and said respectfully, "Your Highness, we have received the latest news. The commander-in-chief of the Wei navy has been frequently mobilizing his soldiers in recent days to strengthen the defenses of the coastal prefectures."
"And Haizhou, the headquarters of the navy, is now vulnerable to defense!"
As soon as these words were spoken.
The eyes of the people on the reef all lit up.
Even the man in the gorgeous robe showed a look of joy and said immediately, "Good, very good, everything is going according to plan! It seems that it is time to attack Haizhou!"
When he said this, a sinister light appeared in the man's eyes.
It was obvious that he had been looking forward to this day for too long.
"Your Highness!"
However, at this moment, an old man on the reef suddenly stepped out and said, "Don't be hasty about this matter. The new naval commander, Zhao Jiguang, is the son of the current Divine Martial Marquis and has experienced many battles."
"Although Haizhou's defense seems weak right now, we still have to be cautious."
The old man knew it very well.
Your Highness has been waiting for the day of counterattack.
But precisely because of this, we need to be more careful.
What if this was a trap set by the other party? Then all the efforts of these years would be completely wasted.
"Master Weng, I certainly know what you're thinking." At this time, the man in the elegant robe spoke up, "But this opportunity is truly rare. The people from the White Clothes Sect have already entered Haizhou and are ready to cause chaos at any moment."
"The Haizhou navy's defense is weak now. It's time for us to attack. As for that Zhao Jiguang you mentioned, there's even less need to worry about him."
"Isn't the reason he came to Haizhou because he was demoted for his failure in fighting against the grassland barbarians at Zhenbei Pass?"
"You say you've been through hundreds of battles, but I think you're just a show-off."
"Besides, here, naval and water battles are the most important. Even though he is well-versed in military books and has extraordinary strategies, he has never commanded a large-scale battle of this kind."
This statement was recognized by the people around him.
Because what the man in the Chinese robe said was absolutely right.
Naval battles and land battles are two different concepts.
Even if their side took the initiative to attack, the Wei navy was notoriously weak. They had experienced this before. Could it be that just because of Zhao Jiguang's arrival, they had been completely transformed? How could it be possible?
In addition, the Wei side had no idea where they would land this time.
Therefore, he could only mobilize his troops as much as possible to defend more places.
This left Haizhou's defenses vulnerable.
That’s Haizhou, an important city.
If they can capture Haizhou in this battle, they will have a foothold and can attack or defend.
After all, Haizhou is close to the wealthy area of Jiangnan, so there is no need to worry about food and money.
After hearing this, the old man frowned slightly, seeming to be a little worried.
However, at this moment, the man in the elegant robe became impatient and said immediately, "Master Weng, think about it, how long have we been preparing for this? And with the help of the White Clothes Sect, there's absolutely no way anything will go wrong."
"For over a hundred years, since the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, I have not been able to reach shore. You know, my Yuan Dynasty was once the ruler of the Central Plains!"
