Wong Ji explained to them slowly, "The Red Flame Army will first load gunpowder into barrels, with a row of Marinated fish on top and a partition below separating the real gunpowder. We will pretend to be temporary workers at the harbor, moving those barrels of gunpowder. If we encounter inspection, we'll say it's for delivery to the fish market. Then, we just need to wait for the Red Flame Army to come and execute the plan."
Wong Ji's words were slow and clear, each one hitting heavily on everyone's hearts. This was a risky plan, full of danger and unknowns. Everyone could feel the pressure of the mission and the accompanying fear, but at the same time, they understood that this was a rare opportunity.
Guo Sheng frowned, thought for a moment, and then raised a question: "But there are at least three new ships at Port Number Two. It's impossible to destroy them all with just a few people's smuggled gunpowder, right?"
Wong Ji nodded, acknowledging Guo Sheng's concerns: "You're right, Guo Sheng. This operation cannot destroy all the ships at once, but our goal is to maximize the destruction of the enemy's supplies and morale. Each ship that is destroyed will cause significant losses to Yang Hao's army and greatly undermine their confidence."
He paused for a moment and continued, "The Red Flame Army's tactic is a war of attrition. We don't need to accomplish all our objectives at once, but rather continuously engage in sabotage and harassment, wearing down the enemy's ability to respond, ultimately achieving our goals."
Xiao Yun, Guo Sheng, and Lian Rong all nodded silently, understanding Wong Ji's intent. They knew that this battle was not a quick fix, but required long-term perseverance and effort. Although their mission was dangerous, it was an important part of the overall strategic plan, a crucial step towards victory.
Xiao Yun took a deep breath and said firmly, "We will do our best to complete this mission."
Guo Sheng and Lian Rong also echoed, expressing their willingness to take on this dangerous job. Wong Ji looked at them, with a hint of comfort and pride in his eyes, "You are the bravest warriors, I believe you will definitely complete this mission."
The plan is set to begin in three days. Xiao Yun, Guo Sheng, and Lian Rong have started to observe and wander around the harbor non-stop, occasionally taking on temporary manual labor jobs, just to make the people at the port remember them and reduce the chances of being noticed. They shuttle through every corner of the harbor, carefully observing every detail, and recording the patrol routes and shift changes of the security guards.
During this process, they discovered that although there are an unusually large number of security guards at the harbor, they are not very strict in reality. It seems that there is an unspoken understanding here - "I'm okay, you're okay, everyone's okay." As long as it's not too exaggerated, the security guards usually turn a blind eye. This lax attitude made them breathe a little easier, but also reminded them not to let their guard down.
Xiao Yun and Guo Sheng carried a wooden barrel, shuttling back and forth among the workers at the dock. She noticed that most of these workers were locals, with tired and resigned expressions, seemingly accustomed to the presence of the security guard. While they worked, they occasionally chatted in low voices, even exchanging jokes with the patrolling security guard, creating a somewhat relaxed atmosphere in the port.
Meanwhile, Lian Rong pretended to be busy on the other side, carefully observing every ship entering and leaving the port. She found that the newly arrived ships were not subjected to particularly strict inspections, just a routine check. This pleased her, as it meant that the likelihood of their successful gunpowder delivery plan had increased.
During this time, the three of them began to bond with the dockworkers, chatting with them during breaks and gradually integrating into this small community. This integration made their actions more natural and less likely to raise suspicion.
Soon, the day for the plan to be executed arrived. At noon, the sun blazed down on the earth as Xiao Yun, Guo Sheng, and Lian Rong strolled into the fish market as usual. The pungent smell of fish hit them, stimulating their brains and bringing them to alertness. They felt a mix of tension and excitement, knowing that this day would be a decisive moment.
According to Wong Ji, the messenger of the Red Flame Army will come to the market gate with a mule cart, loudly singing, "Stinky fish, fish stinky, not stinky not eat, not eat not stinky."
The three of them pretended to wander around the market, constantly scanning the entrance. The fishmongers were shouting, and the customers were bustling back and forth, making the market noisy. Xiao Yun took a deep breath, trying hard to look natural and not let anyone notice anything unusual.
Suddenly, a loud voice came from a distance: "Stinky fish, fish stinks, not stinky not eat, not eat not stinky!" The voice got closer and closer, and it was the messenger of the Red Flame Army.
Xiao Yun, Guo Sheng, and Lian Rong quickly glanced at each other, feeling excited. They immediately walked towards the direction of the sound, pretending to be attracted by the shouting, blending into the crowd, and slowly approaching the mule cart.
The messenger is a middle-aged man with a simple appearance, pulling a mule cart loaded with barrels. The barrels on the cart appear to be filled with marinated fish, but in reality, they are hiding gunpowder underneath. He shouts while moving the barrels to a corner of the market, appearing very diligent.
Xiao Yun, a Guo Sheng, and Lian Rong slowly approach, pretending to be interested in the marinated fish. The messenger sees them, nods slightly, and signals them to start their operation. The three of them understand each other without speaking and quickly take over the barrels, starting to transport them.
"These buckets need to be delivered to the fish market at the back," the messenger said loudly, "the fish here are all fresh!"
The three of them echoed in agreement as they carefully moved the wooden buckets to the designated location. Every step they took was cautious, ensuring they wouldn't arouse suspicion from the people around them. The bustling noise of the market and the smell of fish made them even more alert, and every action was filled with tension and pressure.
During the moving process, Guo Sheng noticed several security guard walking towards them, feeling nervous but forcing themselves to stay calm.
