According to Ang Lee's request, the Black Tiger's spy told the three confidants sent by the Black Tiger a lot of information that was half true and half false. The three of them were shocked. Although they weren't very sure, they believed that the spy was telling the truth. After all, they couldn't see any flaws in the spy's words, not even the slightest flaw.
After paying the deposit for the armed clipper ship, the three Black Tiger's confidants immediately left the Black Wolf Island. When they left, they happened to see five or six seriously injured pirates. These pirates were missing arms and legs. After seeing the three of them, they immediately hid in a room. This made them even more sure that the spy was telling the truth. Something big had indeed happened on the Black Wolf Island. It was easy to act, but missing arms and legs were real. No one would cut off their own arms and legs to act.
"Quick, go back quickly. There's a situation here. We must inform the king immediately."
One of the confidants said.
"What's the situation? Is it urgent?"
The confidant in the ship asked.
"Set sail quickly. Let's walk around. Tell us!"
"What? White Dragon Island was robbed by Black Wolf and they lost more than half of their people? It's so serious."
"It shouldn't be wrong. This Black Wolf is really ruthless. In order to rob the treasures of White Dragon Island, he was willing to abandon half of his brothers. Without these brothers, let's see how Black Wolf can defend the Black Wolf Island."
"Our king has been planning for a long time. It seems that the opportunity is right in front of us. As long as we take down Black Wolf Island in one fell swoop, our king will soon have 70 to 80 percent of the strength of the Black Dragon Emperor. Maybe it won't be long before he can replace the Black Dragon Emperor and become the Emperor of the entire sea region. At that time, the name of this sea region will also be changed. It won't be called the Black Dragon Sea Region anymore. It should be called the Black Tiger Sea Region."
"Haha! Then we have to speed up and inform our king earlier so that he can make a decision. This kind of opportunity won't always come around! "
"Black Wolf's strength can't be recovered in a short time. There's no need to be too anxious!"
"However, our Great King is not the only one in the entire sea region. If we don't make the best use of our time and the other Great Kings beat us to it, then our Great King will miss the opportunity."
"That's true. Then let's work hard together and return to Black Tiger Island as soon as possible. We must inform our King of this good news as soon as possible and let our King be happy."
The six of them rowed the boat with all their might and returned to Black Tiger Island as quickly as possible.
On Black Wolf Island, Ang Lee looked at the Black Tiger spy with satisfaction. He nodded and said, "Not bad. I saw your performance just now. It's really very good. Continue to perform like this in the future. I won't treat you unfairly."
"Assistant Minister Li, judging from the expressions of those three fellows just now, they have already believed it. When they return, they will definitely inform the Black Tiger of their judgment. With the Black Tiger's personality, he will definitely not miss such a rare opportunity. He will definitely attack Black Wolf Island before he survives tonight."
Chen Long said.
"Will we be able to make it in time if they come tonight?"
If Ang Lee remembered correctly, Black Tiger Island was in the southernmost part, while Black Wolf Island was in the northernmost part. There were also many islands like Black Dragon Island in between. The distance between the two islands was close to a hundred li. In terms of time, they shouldn't be able to make it in time. If they didn't make any preparations, they might be able to make it in time. However, if they didn't make any preparations, how could they achieve the greatest effect?
"Yes, we might not be able to make it in time. However, if we come tomorrow night, we will definitely be able to make it in time. Perhaps they will come tomorrow night. We still have one day to prepare."
Chen Long said.
Ang Lee nodded and said, "That's right. We have one day at most. Tomorrow night is the most likely. However, we have to prepare tonight in case we guess wrong."
"Don't worry, Assistant Minister Li! Everything is almost ready. Hidden sentries are deployed within fifty li of Black Wolf Island. As long as someone approaches, they will be discovered. We have also built a particularly tall watchtower on the island. During the day, we can observe the situation within a hundred li. Even at night, we can observe the situation within a radius of a few dozen li with the help of the moonlight. "
The range that could be monitored mainly depended on the intensity of the light. If there was no light at night, then there was really no way. The telescope could only observe the surrounding situation with the help of light. If there was no light, then there was no way to observe.
When the six trusted subordinates of Black Tiger returned to Black Tiger Island, the sky was already dark. After they got on the island, they immediately went to see Black Tiger without any delay.
"White Dragon Island was robbed by Black Wolf and his men. Are you sure?"
Black Tiger asked in surprise.
Obviously, he was very familiar with the situation of White Dragon Island being robbed. In fact, he knew much more than the average person. When he learned that Black Wolf and his men robbed White Dragon Island, he was immediately shocked.
"Basically, I'm sure. Your Majesty, is there anything wrong?"
The trusted subordinate asked.
Black Tiger asked seriously, "They have suffered a lot of casualties, right? How many casualties? "
A confidant said, "Your Majesty, Black Wolf Island has suffered heavy casualties. More than half of our brothers are dead. Even One-eyed Wolf and Big-Eyed Wolf are dead. The rest of the leaders are injured. Only Green Dog, who was left behind to guard Black Wolf Island, is fine. The current defense force on the island is strong on the outside but weak on the inside. There are only a few people on the island, but in fact, there are only a few people on the island. When we came back, we saw a few disabled people. I'm afraid they came out to make up the numbers. A few of them are missing legs and a few of them are missing arms. After they showed up, they went back in. It seems that they wanted to show that they have a large number of people.
Hei Hu nodded and said, "That's right. It would be right if more than half of them were injured or dead. It seems that Hei Lang and the others really robbed White Dragon Island. They are bold enough to target the Zhou family. The Zhou family isn't weak. Even Hei Long doesn't dare to provoke them easily. This time, there was an accident that exposed their lack of strength, which gave Hei Lang a chance. Although Hei Lang suffered heavy losses in this robbery, the harvest is not small."
"Your Majesty, I heard that Black Wolf got 50 boxes of gold bars and even more treasures?"
One of the trusted subordinates asked.
Black Tiger shook his head and said, "Not that much, but there are still 20 boxes. This kid actually learned to exaggerate. Haha!"
"Your Majesty, it seems that everything is clear. Could it be that your Majesty has also arranged people on White Dragon Island?"
One of the trusted subordinates said.
Black Tiger said with a smile, "Speaking of which, it's been 12 years. Twelve years ago, I casually placed a pawn on White Dragon Island. At that time, you guys weren't by my side yet. Naturally, I didn't know about this. A few days ago, this pawn spread the news that White Dragon Island was robbed. That's why I know so clearly. Even the amount of each treasure can't be hidden from me. The number of casualties is the same. "
Black Tiger arranged his trusted subordinates on White Dragon Island mainly to obtain the situation of that area. If there was anything he needed to buy, he could also do it through his trusted subordinates on White Dragon Island. It was very convenient.
"That kid actually exaggerated. He's trying to deceive your Majesty!"
One of the trusted subordinates said.
Black Tiger said with a smile, "It's okay, it's okay. He just wants me to take down Black Wolf Island as soon as possible. There's nothing wrong with saying more treasures. Besides, the scene was so chaotic during the robbery. Maybe he saw wrongly. It's impossible for him to count the boxes one by one! Haha! "
Obviously, Black Tiger was in a very good mood now. He actually helped his subordinates to explain.
"Your Majesty, when are we going to take action? Black Wolf Island is already very weak. This is the best opportunity for us to take action. It'll be a pity if we miss this opportunity."
One of the trusted subordinates asked.
Black Tiger thought for a moment and said, "Get the brothers to prepare quickly. We'll take over Black Wolf Island tonight and not give Black Wolf a chance to breathe."
"Your Majesty, it's already dark. I'm afraid we won't have time to prepare."
"That's right! Your Majesty, it'll take a lot of time for the brothers to prepare. By the time we reach Black Wolf Island, the sky will be bright. It'll be too obvious to attack in the daytime. It won't be easy to achieve surprise and it'll be easy to fail. "
"Your Majesty, it'll be better if we set off tomorrow night. We can prepare for the day."
Black Tiger shook his head and said, "More than half of Black Wolf's brothers are dead, and many of the remaining ones are injured. There are not many who can fight. We have nearly three hundred brothers, and as long as we reach Black Wolf Island, we will be victorious. There is no need to specially prepare. Those who do not need to prepare, immediately gather two hundred brothers and bring along simple swords and bows. When we reach Black Wolf Island, there is no need to rush to kill. Let's go all out and rush to Black Wolf's residence. As long as we capture a few of Black Wolf's leaders, the remaining brothers on Black Wolf Island will have to join us.
Obviously, Black Tiger felt that there was no need to prepare. He had a lot of people on his side. All he needed to do was to rush up. Black Wolf Island didn't have the strength to fight back. There was no need for sufficient preparation. They just needed to bring light weapons. They could save on shields and whatnot.
Since Black Tiger had said so, his trusted subordinates could only choose to agree. They could only support Black Tiger unconditionally and couldn't go against him in the slightest.
Black Tiger had close to three hundred brothers under his command. He was the second strongest force in the entire sea region. This time, he planned to take two hundred of his brothers with him to Black Wolf Island. The less than a hundred brothers left behind would be enough to watch over the island. Anyway, no one knew about their plan and wouldn't take the opportunity to cause trouble.
The reason why he couldn't wait was that other than Black Wolf Island's strength being weakened, he was also worried that the news would be leaked. He was worried that a long delay would lead to trouble. Once the situation changed, everything would be too late.
Black Tiger's trusted subordinates immediately mobilized their men and asked them to gather at the dock immediately. As time was too tight, all the brothers could only bring the simplest weapons. Some of them even came directly without any weapons so as not to waste time.
"What happened? Why are all of you here at the dock?"
Flying Tiger, who was in charge of managing the dock, was shocked. He knew that this was definitely Black Tiger's idea. However, his big brother didn't tell him anything and kept him in the dark. This made him very unhappy. Suddenly gathering his brothers at the dock in the middle of the night, there must be a big operation. However, he didn't know about it. It would be strange if he was in a good mood.
"Sixth King, this is the King's idea. We're just following orders."
One of Black Tiger's trusted subordinates replied in a manner that was neither servile nor overbearing.
Obviously, a mere Black Tiger's trusted subordinate could look down on Flying Tiger. There was no respect in his attitude. It was obvious that he knew what he was going to do but was unwilling to tell Flying Tiger.
"Big Brother, what are you doing? What's wrong? You can't even tell me?"
Flying Tiger was naturally more angry and continued to ask.
"This …"
Black Tiger's trusted subordinate didn't dare to casually tell Flying Tiger. He could only pretend to be hesitant.
However, Black Tiger soon appeared in person and said, "Sixth Brother, guard the dock well. I'm going out for a while. I'll be back in a few days."
After saying that, he led a group of brothers onto an armed speedboat and three fishing boats. They left Black Tiger Island and headed north.
Originally, Black Tiger had three armed speedboats. However, during an operation, one of them sank, and one of them was heavily damaged and couldn't be used. In the end, there was only one left. This was obviously not enough. Therefore, the brothers could only take ordinary medium-sized fishing boats when they went out.
Although they were both ships, there was a huge difference in the performance of different ships. An ordinary medium-sized fishing ship couldn't be compared with an armed clipper ship. When a fishing ship was designed, it was more about fishing. When an armed clipper ship was designed, it was more about its speed and the number of weapons it could carry. The combat effectiveness of the two was completely incomparable.
In a situation where they didn't have enough armed speedboats, Black Tiger could only temporarily use ordinary fishing boats to make up the numbers.
Seeing that his big brother wasn't willing to tell him why he brought a group of brothers out so late at night, Flying Tiger was very depressed. However, although he was depressed, he didn't dare to oppose Black Tiger. After all, Black Tiger was his big brother. Moreover, he held most of the rights on Black Tiger Island.
Two hundred brothers were transferred to Black Tiger Island all at once. Such a huge movement naturally alarmed everyone. It was impossible to hide it from anyone on the island.
Strong Tiger, Skinny Tiger, and White Tiger quickly appeared at the dock. However, when they arrived, Black Tiger and the others had already left by boat. Only Flying Tiger stood there alone at the dock.
"Sixth Brother, what's the situation? Big Brother brought so many brothers out to sea at night. What are they going to do? "
White Tiger asked.
Flying Tiger shook his head and said, "Don't ask me. Big Brother isn't willing to say. I don't know either."
"Big Brother is getting more and more overboard. He doesn't tell us what he's doing. Does he still treat us as brothers?"
Skinny Tiger said unhappily.
Strong Tiger said, "Hasn't Big Brother always been like this? We should be used to it. Alright, it's getting late. Let's go back and rest! Let's go. "
Soon, the four of them returned to their own residences. They couldn't be bothered to care about Black Tiger. Anyway, it was useless. This Black Tiger wouldn't listen to his brothers. He wouldn't tell his brothers anything important. He was afraid that his brothers would know too much. One day, they would use this information to threaten his position and cause him to lose his current ruling position.
