Chapter 124: Facing the war for the first time

This island is neither big nor small.

The biggest reason for its desertedness is that the mountain is in the middle of the island, leaving little space around it.

Even if the space is smaller, three people can fit in it.

Lin Wanxia came ashore panting.

Swimming in the sea is completely different from swimming in a swimming pool. And

swimming against the wind, she was exhausted.

Soon Uncle Li and Brother Liu also came ashore.

The three of them went forward together.

It was not that they did not want to rest, but the movement of the war could be heard across a mountain.

And the reason they were so careful was that they heard gunshots.

Gunshots that were completely different from firecrackers.

Lin Wanxia's palms were wet.

It was not sea water but sweat.

A person in peacetime suddenly faced the panic of war.

They did not dare to go to the top of the mountain for fear of becoming a sitting duck, so they could only quietly go around from one side.

In the opposite direction from them, there was a boat parked.

It was a fishing boat that looked very ordinary.

But Lin Wanxia could see that it was not a fishing boat.

It was a professional warship. It

was just smaller.

There were several people lying on the shore.

You could tell without looking that they were not breathing.

Brother Liu suddenly took a breath, and the movement was a bit loud.

Lin Wanxia and Uncle Li both looked at him.

Brother Liu pointed at the two people who were beaten and hiding in the valley, "Those two are soldiers. They helped us when we went out to sea last year."

Hearing the words "soldiers", Lin Wanxia subconsciously thought of Jiang Sinian and the others, and looked over.

From this angle, she could only see the profiles of the two people, and they were not people she was familiar with.

Lin Wanxia breathed a sigh of relief for some reason, and then her heart was lifted up again.

People can't see clearly, but the enemy and us are obvious, and the battle situation is also clear at a glance.

Two parties are fighting for this island.

And the enemy is outnumbered.

There are only two defenders, but the enemy has...

Lin Wanxia can't count them, mainly because it is not convenient to count them openly.

She thought for a while and asked Uncle Li, "What will happen if this island is really occupied by the enemy?"

Uncle Li is just an ordinary fisherman, "Then we can't come here to fish."

Brother Liu supplemented, "It's not that we can't come here, but this area is not allowed. The sea nearby will become other countries. We may be arrested if we pass by. When we go back, we have to tell the captains that this island will be a restricted area in the future."

There was a lot of regret in his tone.

Hearing this, Lin Wanxia became furious, "Isn't this an uninhabited island? How come it's a restricted area? Why should we give it to them? Let's take this island."

She wasn't acting on impulse.

She just remembered an island.

That island once belonged to our country without dispute.

But later it was occupied by a group of dwarfs.

That piece of news was on the hot search for a long time.

Lin Wanxia was also one of the people who were looking forward to taking back the island.

But the news only showed condemnation, strong condemnation, protest, and serious protest.

Until the news gradually became history, until Lin Wanxia entered the book, the dwarfs were still stationed on the island.

Some things are not a matter of giving way to an island.

Uncle Li subconsciously retorted: "How can we fight? We have nothing."

Brother Liu was younger and more passionate: "Even if I die, I'll have to drag someone with me."

Lin Wanxia thought about it and explained: "I have some homemade cannons and rifles on the boat."

Uncle Li: "..."

Brother Liu: "..."

They looked at Lin Wanxia in horror, not knowing how to react.

In theory, homemade rifles are not rare things in the eyes of ordinary people.

Several families in their fishing village who like hunting have them.

In autumn, they will go to the fields to hunt pheasants and rabbits to improve their lives.

But use them in war? !

The homemade rifle is a gun and not a gun.

In battle, it is about the same difficulty as the millet rifle fighting against the machine gun.

The point is that Lin Wanxia is now mostly just giving orders, and the three of them are busy with all the big and small things on the boat.

Compared with other boatmen, the three of them may have to do more work, but they have more decision-making power and higher wages.

They cleaned up everything inside and outside, and they didn't even know there were guns and cannons on the boat.

Brother Liu took a deep breath, "Then I'll go with you!"

Young people are always more hot-blooded.

The current situation did not allow them to discuss. Lin Wanxia nodded and returned to her own ship without saying a word, and then summoned all the captains to her ship to discuss matters.

They are just ordinary people, without weapons and without training. All they can do is choose whether to stand up to defend their own interests and the interests of the country.

There are three digits of captains and boatmen together.

Those who are straightforward decide on the spot whether to go or not. Those

who are indecisive need time to think.

But they don't have time right now.

Lin Wanxia found the gun she had hidden in the secret compartment and threw it in front of everyone, "I'm sorry that I don't have much time for you to think. If you don't want to go, please go back to your own boat and stay away to avoid being accidentally injured. If you don't want to go back, choose a gun to leave on the boat."

She also pushed out the homemade cannon that had not been modified and hidden in the side of the boat, then turned the rudder and drove towards the island from the other outside.

This was the direction behind the enemy.

Soon, small boats came up and down from the fishing boat, following behind Lin Wanxia.

In addition to the captain, there were also boatmen on the fishing boat.

Many of them were also very enthusiastic.

Lin Wanxia had quite a few homemade guns in her collection, but not too many either. She only bought twenty guns.

Even if each gun cost thirty yuan, twenty guns would cost six hundred yuan.

She was short of money.

Lin Wanxia would sometimes worry about it. She had a golden finger, so why did she always fall to the point of being short of money?

There were even fewer homemade cannons.

It was Grandpa Sun who sorted out the homemade cannons that were not used in the village and gave them to her. It was

still unclear whether they could be used!

Small boats were faster than fishing boats.

So the boatmen who came to join the war boarded Lin Wanxia's boat one after another, deflated some of the small boats and stored them on the boat, and parked the others on the shore in preparation for escape.

Both sides of the battle on the island noticed Lin Wanxia's boat.

It was hard not to see a pink and white boat sandwiched between a sea of ​​blue and white fishing boats.

The strange flag on the island belonged to the State of Xu.

I don't know what kind of soldiers are guarding the island, but they are obviously from our country.

With such a huge disparity in combat power, the two warriors were about to become martyrs. At

this time, Lin Wanxia led his men to swim to the shore and pointed the black muzzles of their guns at the enemy, firing without hesitation.

Among the twenty fishermen with guns, only three knew how to use them.

Their marksmanship was not very good, just at the level of hunting.

The three half-baked apprentices spent several minutes teaching everyone how to use homemade guns.

Then the half-baked apprentices were divided into two teams.

One team went around the island and shot

at the top of the hill. Another team rushed from the sea to the shore and attacked the shore.

It's called the shore, but it's not really the shore. At least they can swim away when they want.

Xu Guo's ship stopped at sea, one for sentry and the other for escape.

While Lin Wanxia was swimming to the shore, she summoned the man-eating shark again.

There are two kinds of homemade guns that Lin Wanxia bought.

One is similar to a pistol but with a slightly longer gun.

The other is similar to the length of a rifle.
