"What do you think? Is there an ambush in this warehouse? Are there any guards here? How many people are guarding here?" Gu Hong asked the person in charge of reconnaissance.
"General, there are no troops stationed in this warehouse, and no ambush! There are only a few workers responsible for cleaning!" said the reconnaissance soldier.
"How is this possible? Zhao Xindou doesn't care about such an important warehouse?" Gu Hong found it unbelievable.
Such a big warehouse, with so much grain inside.
Even if they don't have to worry about attacks from foreign enemies, they still have to be on guard. If there are thieves or something like that in their Great Qin country, it would be quite dangerous.
"General, based on what we've learned, the Great Qin Empire is now invincible in this small world, and no one dares to provoke them! As for the thieves and the like within the Great Qin Empire, there are no longer any thieves or anything like that, so they don't have to worry. They just randomly assigned a few old, weak, and sick people to guard warehouses like this! I guess it's because these old, weak, and sick people go to rest at night, so there's no one here!"
"I see. It seems the Great Qin Empire has been at peace for so long that it no longer knows how to fight. Then I will take all the food in this warehouse! Although it won't be enough to feed our Arui Empire for a long time, it will at least allow the people of our Arui Empire to not worry about food for six months."
Gu Hong's eyes were filled with excitement. Although their country was extremely powerful and could attack anyone it pleased, and few could withstand their army, what was incredible was that their country was often starving.
Even their army often had nothing to eat. Now, they felt they could solve this problem.
Of the hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, except for a small number used to guard the ships, most of the troops were led by this guy and were preparing to move things to the warehouse.
These guys are definitely the reincarnation of starving ghosts. Food is more important to them than anything else.
Hundreds of thousands of troops entered the warehouse in the blink of an eye!
However, just as they entered the warehouse and were carrying things, before they could come out, flames suddenly shot up into the sky on the sea. Someone set fire to their ship!
The various shouts and sounds of killing and drumming were earth-shaking.
Gu Hong couldn't help but be surprised: "There's an ambush! I didn't expect there would really be an ambush in this place! What should we do?"
The troops of the Are Empire suddenly felt panicked because they were mainly here to move things. In order to facilitate moving things, some of them did not even bring weapons, just a dagger or a short sword with them.
Such weapons are good for self-defense.
However, if there is a large-scale conflict, such short weapons will not be of much use at all.
But now all their warships were burned, their weapons were sunk into the sea, and they had no way to retreat.
"General, what should we do? Where can we go now?"
After seeing that they had no way to retreat, the soldiers of the Are Empire were almost crying.
Their country is indeed extremely powerful, but in reality, only a few people in their country truly benefit from it.
Although most soldiers and civilians were brave and good at fighting, they did not gain any benefits from the war.
Now, they came here to steal food, which was originally a relatively easy job, but now in the blink of an eye, they were trapped!
With no way out, they were trapped in this place. This Puhai City was actually a small island. On this island, there was a city and many residents.
But for some reason, the residents of this small island had been evacuated in advance. The city here was actually a deserted city.
Although they occupied a large amount of food, they could still imagine that they would soon be surrounded and wiped out by the army of the Qin Empire!
By then, even if these people have great abilities, they will have no way to go to heaven or to enter the earth.
Gu Hong's face turned pale. He had no other options now. Although he could escape from here even by swimming, relying on his own abilities.
But the hundreds of thousands of troops under his command probably have no way out.
"Brothers of the Are Empire, you have been surrounded. Your only way out now is to lay down your arms and surrender. The Emperor of our Great Qin Empire is very benevolent and will generally not do anything to you! You will definitely have a chance to survive!"
Zhang Lei didn't expect that at the beginning they just wanted to teach the invaders a lesson.
But they never imagined that it would be so easy to destroy the enemy's ships.
With almost no effort, they destroyed all of the enemy's retreat routes and trapped hundreds of thousands of enemy troops on this small island.
This guy is not a fool. After knowing his role, he immediately spoke to the people of the Are Empire without any hesitation.
The people of the Are Empire are not thinking about surrendering now, but now they are actually feeling very desperate one by one.
Because they can almost imagine what the outcome will be for these people.
Gu Hong gritted his teeth and said to his men, "Brothers, don't easily believe those guys' nonsense. They are just trying to trick us into surrendering, but after surrendering, there will be no good results. Being captured in any battle is basically worse than death."
It was naturally impossible for this guy to surrender directly with his army, so he kept telling these things to the people around him. As for whether they were true or not, it didn't matter at all.
Anyway, the people around him don’t understand the Qin Empire!
There are only a few hundred people around Zhang Lei, and they are all shouting constantly.
"Captain, although these guys are trapped on the island, our Great Qin Empire's army has not yet appeared. It's probably not that easy to force them to surrender with just 500 of us."
The people around Zhang Lei kept shaking their heads. This matter was really too difficult for them now.
Zhang Lei said, "We're not trying to force them to surrender, but to trap them here. These people will definitely find a way to escape if they have the chance. We need to circle this island and keep shouting at them to surrender. We still have a few aircraft, so let's use them. We must make it look like they're surrounded! Then wait for our army."
