After rebirth, I became a national teacher

Of course, we can't just go on an island landing operation, there is still a lot of preparatory work to be done.

The first thing to prepare is intelligence.

How many troops are left in the Japanese pirates' lair? Are there other forces nearby that can serve as reinforcements?

We need to understand how far away the island is where this group of Japanese pirates is, what the terrain is like on the island, whether there are any traps, etc.

In this regard, we mainly rely on interrogating the captured Japanese pirates.

Zheng Yuannai thought of a way. He selected some Japanese pirates, interrogated them separately, and then compared their statements with those of everyone else.

Those who lied were beheaded on the spot.

As a result, these Japanese pirates revealed a lot of information in order to survive.

In addition, the rescued people also had some knowledge about the island, so a topographic map of the island was quickly drawn up.

After three days of interrogation, Zheng Yuannai had a basic understanding of the situation of this group of Japanese pirates.

This group of Japanese pirates is considered a major force among the Japanese pirates.

There are a total of 700 people, and now there are more than 360 people left on the island to prevent being attacked by other Japanese pirates when they are away.

Of course, since so much time was spent on the interrogation, the case of the traitor was also tried at the same time.

After all, if we want to attack the island, we must send out a lot of troops, so how can we leave such a big hidden danger in the rear?

Through interrogation, Zheng Yuannai has determined that it was those four corrupt captains who went to tip off the Japanese pirates.

"How hateful! It's fine that he exploited the soldiers on weekdays, but at the critical moment, he actually tipped off the Japanese pirates!

These people simply don't care about the lives of thousands of people in Songhu!"

Zheng Yuannai was so angry that he gritted his teeth and immediately ordered Fan Dayong to lead people to Songhu City to capture a few thousand households.

Songhu is more than a hundred miles away from the seaside, but we arrived there in just two days.

When Fan Dayong led his troops into Captain Zhao's mansion, the other three captains were also there.

Several people had invited famous prostitutes in the city to have fun in their mansion, but were caught red-handed by Fan Dayong.

This saved him the trouble of looking for the other three people.

When the four captains saw Fan Dayong, they were shocked as if they had seen a ghost.

"He...isn't he on the front line fighting the Japanese? Why is he in the city?"

Captain Zhao was also very displeased when he broke into his mansion:

"Deputy General Fan, what do you mean by bringing people to break into my mansion for no reason?"

Fan Dayong looked at the four captains who often hindered the Songhu Camp Army and snorted coldly:

"Breaking into the mansion? The four of you have committed the crime of colluding with the Japanese. You deserve to be killed! I am here on the order of the general to arrest you four scums!"

When they heard the words "collaborating with the Japanese", the four of them felt a shock in their hearts, and then they refused to admit it.

"Fan Dayong, what nonsense are you talking about? Who is colluding with the Japanese?"

"Yes, just because you are the general's deputy general, does that mean you can wrongly accuse a good person?"

"If you can't produce evidence today, we will go to the commander-in-chief and accuse you of framing a loyal and honest person. You will be punished for what you have done!"

Several people were certain that they had handled the matter cleanly from beginning to end and there was no way any evidence would be found.

however……

Fan Dayong sneered:

"You're still trying to quibble despite the overwhelming evidence! To tell you the truth, all the pirates who came to rob us this time have been captured by us. Their leader has personally confessed to the crimes of you four villains colluding with the Japanese, and has also handed over your handwritten letters!"

In addition, there are night-shining pearls and jade carvings given to them by Lin Zhai’s group as evidence.

Of course, there is no need to explain these in detail in front of them.

Hearing this, several people were stunned.

"Impossible! Those pirates just arrived. How could you capture them all?"

"Yes, they must be lying!"

Several people couldn't believe this fact.

The Japanese pirates were so powerful and their whereabouts were always elusive, so how was it possible that they were defeated just a few days after landing and all of them were captured?

However, if he had not obtained solid evidence, how could that guy named Zheng dare to suddenly attack them.
